Grafting is a process in which the tissues or the cells of one plant are fused into the another plant so that they both may be joined together to form vascular joining. This is known as inosculation. One of the plants is chosen for its roots and this is called the stock. The other is
Double fertilization is a phenomenon which occurs in plants. It is a really complex mechanism in which the female embryo sac combines with two male gametes. The stigma of the female part of the reproduction system of the flower, called the carpel, is adhered to a pollen grain. This is the beginning of the process

The ulcers which are present in the stomach are known as ‘Gastric Ulcers’. The ulcers that are present
The heart is the central controlling unit of a body. This is the heart which is responsible for a human life. Its working means you have life; if it’s not, you are dead. The heart is a muscle that centrally regulates the whole body. The heart has four chambers, also called valves—two upper and two

A chemical reaction that occurs between wood, fuel and oxygen when the fuel used reaches the ignition point is called fire.

Zygote is the basic cell formation in any cellular organism which leads to the development of multi-cellular organisms. It is formed when two gametes combine together by sexual reproduction. In single cell organisms, these are the main component of the organisms which are later divided into two to form offspring. Zygote is the embryo which
Photosynthesis is the process of grasping light energy and converting it into chemical energy in plants. In other words, we can also say photosynthesis is the breathing process of plants. It is just the right opposite to the human breathing system. Humans take inhale oxygen and release carbon dioxide whereas plants take carbon dioxide in
How does it happen that a bird on a wire doesn’t get shocked? When the bird perches on a live wire, its body becomes charged for the moment; it’s at the same voltage as the wire. But no current flows into its body. Electricity must have a path in order to travel. A power line
