The loamy soil has high field capacity and it has more amount of hygroscopic water. c. Gravitational water is runaway water. d. capillary water is present inside the microspores of soil and is the water that is available to plant roots.

Assertion : Gravitational potential is maximum at infinite. Reason : Gravitational potential is the amount of work done to shifting a unit mass from infinity to a given point in gravitational attraction force field.

Presistent pesticides such as DDT pass into food chain and increase in amount per unit weight of organism due to their accumulation in fat. This phenomenon is called

The maximum height of a mountain on earth is limited by the rock flowing under the enormous weight above it. Studies show that maximum height depends on young’s modulus (Y) of the rod, acceleration due to gravity (g) and the density of the rock (d). (a) Write an equation showing the dependence of maximum height (h) of mountain on Y, g and d. It is given that unit of Y is Nm^(-2) . (b) Take d = 3 xx 10^(3) kg m^(-3), Y = 1 xx 10^(10) Nm^(-2) and g = 10 ms^(-2) and assume that maximum height of a mountain on the surface of earth is limited to 10 km [height of mount Everest is nearly 8 km]. Write the formula for h.

Arginine vasopressin is a pituitary harmone. It helps to regulate the amount of water in the blood by reducing the flow of urine from the kidneys. An aqueous solution containing 21.6 mg of vasopressin in 100 mL of solution contaning had an osmotic pressure of 3.70 mm Hg at 25^(@)C . What is the molecular weight of the harmone?

Read the following statements and find out the incorrect statement. (A) Carbon constitutes 49 per cent of dry weight of organisms and is next to water. (B) Of the total quantity of global carbon, 71 per cent caron is found dissolved in ocean. (C) Atmosphere contains about ten per cent of total global carbon . (D) The oceanic reservior regulates the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
