How does the 1st and 2nd law of thermodynamics apply to biological systems? Two fundamental concepts govern energy as it relates to living organisms: the First Law of Thermodynamics states that total energy in a closed system is neither lost nor gained — it is only transformed. The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that entropy […]
Why does glass amplify sound?
Why does glass amplify sound? It happens because glass resonates at frequencies we can hear. The resonant frequency of the glass changes with its thickness. When energy at that frequency meets the glass, it causes the glass to vibrate like a drum head. How do you physically amplify sound? Untitled Document. Sounds can be made […]
What is difference between PCT and DCT?
What is difference between PCT and DCT? PCT occurs after the Bowman’s capsule while DCT occurs after the loop of Henle. PCT is mainly involved in the reabsorption whereas secretion occurs in the DCT.

Can a population increase even though its growth rate is decreasing?
Can a population increase even though its growth rate is decreasing? Not only the population itself was growing, but also the doubling time was decreasing, which basically means that growth itself was growing. This rapid growth increase was mainly caused by a decreasing death rate (more rapidly than birth rate), and particularly an increase in […]
When would you use a perspective view?
When would you use a perspective view? Answer: You would use isometric when drawing things from above, like a house plan, while perspective is used to show what the object’s entire design appears to be. What is drawing in perspective?

Do trees grow out of the air?
Do trees grow out of the air? But the truth is, trees are actually formed largely out of the air. (Yes, air!) Trees, and all photosynthesizing plants, use the energy of the sun to split atmospheric carbon dioxide into its constituents: oxygen and carbon. And carbon is the primary building block of the tree — […]
