Plants do not have a digestive system because their need for nourishment is fulfilled through the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They obtain their energy and and nutrients from the energy of the sun to create their supply to live. Therefore using characteristics such as the sun and water their physical nature does not allow them to rely on a digestive system to obtain their need for energy, when their need is supplied almost directly for the sun.

- Take a clinical thermometer and hold it horizontally with reading scale towards your eye.
- Do not hold the thermometer from the bulb.
- Rotate the thermometer slightly clockwise and anticlockwise. By doing this you will see a shiny thin silvery thread.
- The end of the silvery thread shows the reading of temperature. If mercury lining ends at 37, the reading is 37°C.
- Wash the bulb end of thermometer with an antiseptic solution.
- Give two or three jerks slightly. By doing this the mercury level would fall. When it falls to 35°C or below, put it below the tongue and wait for one minute.
- Take out the thermometer and read the temperature. Temperature would be near 37°C.
- The normal body temperature is 37°C. This can differ from person to person.

Similarities:
- Bulbs contain mercury.
- Glass tubes are long, narrow and uniform.
Differences:
- The clinical thermometer is used to measure body temperature, however, laboratory thermometer is not used for the purpose of measuring body temperature.
- The temperature range of clinical thermometers is 35°C to 42°C and that of laboratory thermometers is -10°C to 110°C.
- The least count of both the thermometers is different.
- The clinical thermometer is can be tilted while reading the temperature values whereas laboratory thermometer need to be kept upright.

Thermal radiation is the electromagnetic radiation emitted by a body with a temperature above absolute zero. The amount of energy emitted depends on the temperature of the surface and its ability to emit energy. An example of thermal radiation is the infrared radiation emitted by a common household radiator or electric heater. Sunshine, or solar radiation, is thermal radiation from the extremely hot gasses of the sun, and this radiation heats the earth.

Almost all liquids are either acids or bases to some degree. Whether a liquid is an acid or base depends on the type of ions in it. If it has a lot of hydrogen ions, then it is an acid. If it has a lot of hydroxide ions, then it is a base. Curd contains lactic acid and vinegar contains acetic acid. Lime water, soap, and milk of magnesia are basic substances and grapes contain tartaric acid.

Tooth decay, also known as dental caries or cavities, is a breakdown of teeth due to acids made by bacteria. Symptoms may include pain and difficulty with eating. ... The acid is produced when sugars (mainly sucrose) in foods or drinks react with bacteria present in the dental biofilm (plaque) on the tooth surface. Tooth decay is the destruction of your tooth enamel, the hard, outer layer of your teeth. Plaque, a sticky film of bacteria, constantly forms on your teeth. When you eat or drink foods containing sugars, the bacteria in plaque produce acids that attack tooth enamel.

The thin, broad, flat and green part of a plant which is attached to the stem or branches is called a leaf. Leaves are of different shapes and sizes. It mainly consists of two main parts – lamina and petiole. Lamina is a broad, green part of the leaf and is commonly called leaf blade. Petiole is a thin stem with which leaf is attached to the stem and is commonly called as the leaf stalk. The centre of the lamina has a main vein called a mid-rib from which a large number of veins arise and spread to all the parts of a leaf.

Migration is the movement of people across different states and regions. When people migrate within the boundaries of the country, it is called internal migration. International migration refers to the migration of people between countries. Migration is an important determinant of population change as it not only changes the size of population but also affects the population composition of urban and rural areas. If we take an example of India, we find that the urban population of the country has increased from 17.2% in 1951 to 27.7% in 2001 due to the migration of people from villages to the cities in search for better job opportunities.
