Angle between normal and the mirror is always 90∘
Angle of reflection =30∘

• Lustre: Metals in the pure state generally shine. The shine on the metallic surface is called the metallic lustre.
• Malleability: The property of metals by which they can be beaten into thin sheets is known as malleability.
For example, silver metal is beaten to make silver foil used for decorating sweets.
• Ductility: It is one of the properties of metals by virtue of which they can be drawn into wires. For example, copper and iron can be drawn into wires.
• Conductivity: Metals are good conductor of heat and electricity. Heat and electricity can pass through them.
• Sonorous: Metals produce a ringing sound when struck hard. So, they are called sonorous.
• Solid: All metals are solid except Mercury, the only metal which is liquid at room temperate. We can cut sodium (Na) and potassium (K) metals with the help of a knife. Mercury, sodium and potassium are exceptional metals. Examples of metals: iron, copper, gold, aluminium, silver, calcium etc.

The push or pull of an object is considered a force. Push and pull come from the objects interacting with one another. Terms like stretch and squeeze can also be used to denote force.
In Physics, force is defined as: The push or pull on an object with mass that causes it to change its velocity.
Force is an external agent capable of changing the state of rest or motion of a particular body. It has a magnitude and a direction. The direction towards which the force is applied is known as the direction of the force and the application of force is the point where force is applied.
The Force can be measured using a spring balance. The SI unit of force is Newton(N).

Liquid pressure increases with increasing depth. To withstand the greater pressure at the bottom of a water reservoir, dams are thicker at the bottom than at the top.

- The function and significance of vacuoles vary greatly according to the type of cell in which they are present.
- In general, the functions of the vacuole include- Isolating materials that might be harmful or a threat to the cell. Containing waste products.
- Containing water in plant cells. Maintaining internal hydrostatic pressure or turgor within the cell. Maintaining an acidic internal pH.
- Allows plants to support structures such as leaves and flowers due to the pressure of the central vacuole etc.

Adolescence is a critical link between childhood and adulthood, characterized by significant physical, psychological, and social transitions. These transitions carry new risks but also present opportunities to positively influence the immediate and future health of young people. Children are like wet clay, you can mold them in any shape. They are quick learners and absorb everything around them with their audio-visual senses.

A cell is the structural and fundamental unit of life. The study of cells from its basic structure to the functions of every cell organelle is called Cell Biology. Robert Hooke was the first Biologist who discovered cells.
Cell Structure
The cell structure comprises individual components with specific functions essential to carry out life’s processes. These components include- cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, and cell organelles. Read on to explore more insights on cell structure and function.
Cell Membrane
- The cell membrane supports and protects the cell. It controls the movement of substances in and out of the cells. It separates the cell from the external environment. The cell membrane is present in all the cells.
- The cell membrane is the outer covering of a cell within which all other organelles, such as the cytoplasm and nucleus, are enclosed. It is also referred to as the plasma membrane.
- By structure, it is a porous membrane (with pores) which permit the movement of selective substances in and out of the cell. Besides this, the cell membrane also protects the cellular component from damage and leakage.
- It forms the wall-like structure between two cells as well as between the cell and its surroundings.
- Plants are immobile, so their cell structures are well-adapted to protect them from external factors. The cell wall helps to reinforce this function.
Cell Wall
- The cell wall is the most prominent part of the plant’s cell structure. It is made up of cellulose, hemicellulose and pectin.
- The cell wall is present exclusively in plant cells. It protects the plasma membrane and other cellular components. The cell wall is also the outermost layer of plant cells.
- It is a rigid and stiff structure surrounding the cell membrane.
- It provides shape and support to the cells and protects them from mechanical shocks and injuries.
Cytoplasm
- The cytoplasm is a thick, clear, jelly-like substance present inside the cell membrane.
- Most of the chemical reactions within a cell take place in this cytoplasm.
- The cell organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum, vacuoles, mitochondria, ribosomes, are suspended in this cytoplasm.
Nucleus
- The nucleus contains the hereditary material of the cell, the DNA.
- It sends signals to the cells to grow, mature, divide and die.
- The nucleus is surrounded by the nuclear envelope that separates the DNA from the rest of the cell.
- The nucleus protects the DNA and is an integral component of a plant’s cell structure.

Oils, grease, graphite, etc., are examples of lubricants. These form a thin layer between the two surfaces in contact thus avoiding them from scrubbing directly against each other. This makes the movement smooth and reduces friction.

Gravitational force
Gravitational force is a force exerted by the earth on all objects on it. When a ball is thrown up, it falls to the ground because of gravitational force. The water from a tap always flows downwards because of gravitational force.

Non-contact forces: Forces that arise without the contact of 2 or more objects involved. Examples: Magnetic Force, Electrostatic Force, Gravitational force.
Magnetic Force is a force that attracts certain metal objects (like iron and iron filings) towards a magnet.
Electrostatic force is the force exerted by a charged body on another charged or uncharged body. Eg: Take a comb and brush it on a hair 3-4 times and then take it near some small bits of paper. Donot touch the comb with the paper. The bits of paper would get attracted to the comb. This is because the comb is charged because of the rubbing on your hair and it attracts uncharged objects like paper.
Gravitational force is a force exerted by the earth on all objects on it. When a ball is thrown up, it falls to the ground because of gravitational force. The water from a tap always flows downwards because of gravitational force.

Estrogen is widely secreted and released by a pair of ovaries in the female gonad and only a small amount of estrogen is released by the adrenal glands and fat cells, which is responsible for sexual and reproductive development during puberty.

Humans are diploid (2n) and have 46 chromosomes in their normal body cells. These 46 chromosomes are organized into 23 pairs: 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of *** chromosomes.

The normal duration it takes for the development of the fetus from the time of fertilization in the womb of its mother is called the gestation period. In humans, the gestation period is for about 9 months or approximately 280 days. It is calculated from the incipience of their last menstrual period.

The type of reproduction in which only a single parent is involved is called asexual reproduction
In asexual reproduction, only one parent is involved. Get permanent slides of hydra,Observe them using hand lens or a microscope. Look out for any bulges from the parent body. Count the number of bulges that you see in different slides. Also, note the size of the bulges.

Fertilization
Fertilization is the process of fusion of a sperm with an ovum. The union of sperm and egg results in the formation of zygote or fertilized egg. In humans, it usually occurs in the fallopian tube. Usually, one sperm fertilizes the ovum. However, there are chances of more than one sperm fertilizing with an ovum. The phenomenon is called as polyspermy.

Development of an embryo inside the female body : The zygote formed after fertilization in the fallopian tubes is implanted in the uterus. The uterus is also known as the womb. Here, the zygote divides to form an embryo, which develops into a foetus.
The outer-thin layer is known as the perimetrium.
The middle layer is thick and is made up of smooth muscles. It is known as the myometrium. These muscles contract strongly during the delivery of a baby.
The inner layer lines the uterine cavity, which has many glands and is known as the endometrium. It thickens every month and is supplied with blood to nourish the embryo. It undergoes cyclic changes during the menstrual cycle.
