Clayey soil has very small sized particles. ... For growing crops such as wheat, gram, and paddy, the soil should be good at retaining water and rich in organic matter is suitable. Therefore, clayey soils having these characteristics are useful for such kind of crops. Clay soils feel very sticky and rolls like plasticine when wet. They can hold more total water than most other soil types and, although only about half of this is available to plants, crops seldom suffer from drought.

Percolation Rate of Water: Amount of water drained through water in unit time is known as percolation rate of water in soil. Percolation rate of water can be calculated using the formula given here.
Percolation rate (mL/min) = Amount of water in mL/Time taken to percolate

This can be done easily by studying the nature and size of the image and the relative movement of the mirror with respect to the image:
1. If the image is upright, of the same size as the object and it does not change in size when the mirror is moved, then the mirror is a plane mirror.
2. If the image is upright, magnified and it becomes inverted when the mirror is moved away from the face, then the mirror is a concave mirror.
3. If the image is upright and diminished and it remains upright when the mirror is moved away from the face, then the mirror is a convex mirror.

Adaptation can be defined as the physical or behavioural characteristic of an organism that helps an organism to survive better in the surrounding environment. All animals adapt a few features for their smooth survival in the residing environment.
Elephant, the huge animal has also adapted a few features to survive in the tropical rain forest. Elephant living in the tropical rainforest are well adapted to this region.
Adaptive Features Adapted by Elephants for Living in the Tropical Rainforest

The role of HCl is
- Hydrochloric acid is an essential acid in the stomach.
- It helps destroy bacteria, as well as other harmful species.
- It also works as a preservative of food.
- HCl converts pepsinogen which is not active into pepsin to metabolize proteins in our stomach.
- HCl also acts as another stomach cover apart from mucus, to avoid the pepsin to digesting the entire stomach.

While examining a thin slice of cork, Robert Hooke saw that the cork resembled the structure of a honeycomb consisting of many little compartments. Cork is a substance which comes from the bark of a tree. In the year 1665, Robert Hooke made this chance observation through a self-designed microscope. Robert Hooke called these boxes cells. Cell is a Latin word for ‘a little room’.
Thus, cells were first discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. He observed the cells in a cork slice with the help of a primitive microscope. Leeuwenhoek (1674), with the improved microscope, discovered the free living cells in pond water for the first time. Robert Brown in 1831 discovered the nucleus in the cell. Purkinje in 1839 coined the term ‘protoplasm’ for the fluid substance of the cell. The cell theory was presented by two biologists, Schleiden (1838) and Schwann (1839). This theory states that all the plants and animals are composed of cells and that the cell is the basic unit of life. The cell theory was further expanded by Virchow (1855) by suggesting that all cells arise from pre-existing cells.

The thermometer that measures our body temperature is called clinical thermometer. There are two types of thermometers i.e. clinical and laboratory thermometer. Both are based on the Celsius scale of temperature and both are mercury thermometers.
The Fahrenheit scale of temperature is the common form of temperature measurement used in the United States and some parts of the Caribbean. It was created by the German scientist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in the early 18th century, and adapted its measurements standards from a previous scale created by Ole Roemer.
Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and boils at 212 degrees F. The Fahrenheit temperature scale includes negative temperatures, below 0 degrees F. The coldest possible temperature, absolute zero, is -459.67 degrees F.
The Celsius scale is sometimes referred to as the centigrade scale, because it is based on a 100 degree division between the freezing and boiling points of water: water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius and boils at 100 degrees C. Because of how the boiling and freezing points are arranged, each degree of Fahrenheit is 1.8 times the size of a degree Celsius. Like Fahrenheit, Celsius includes negative temperatures. Absolute zero falls at -273.15 degrees C.
The Kelvin scale was adapted from the Celsius scale in the 19th century by the British scientist William Thompson, later Lord Kelvin. Kelvin was designed in order to set the zero point of the temperature scale at absolute zero. Because of this, absolute zero is located at 0 K – Kelvin does not use degrees in its notation. You can convert from Celsius to Kelvin by adding 273.15 to a Celsius temperature. Water freezes at 273.15 K, and boils at 373.15 K. Because of its direct relation to absolute zero, Kelvin temperature is widely used in scientific equations and calculations. For instance, the ideal gas law, used to show the relationship between mass, pressure, temperature and volume, uses Kelvin as its standard unit.

- This is because of the formation of white coloured insoluble calcium carbonate which is milky.
- Carbon dioxide is evolved due to the chemical reaction between acetic acid and sodium hydrogencarbonate.

Physical Changes
-
Physical Properties of a substance are those characteristic of a substance that describes its physical nature.
-
For Example colour, density, shape, size and volume are some physical properties.
-
Physical Change is a change which occurs when there is an alteration in the physical properties of a substance.
-
The physical change does not result in the formation of any new substance but can alter the shape and size of the existing substance.
