Surface tension allows light insects to walk on water.
Answer:
A) Spore capsules
Explanation:
Ferns produce spore capsules contained in the sporangium (plural: sporangia), a structure localized on the undersides of the leaves. Moreover, the sporangia are borne in clusters known as sori (singular sorus). The spores are single reproductive cells that, when mature, are released from the sporangium to germinate on soil and produce new ferns. In a fern sporangium, the maximum number of spores is 64, although this number depends on the species.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Velcro was coined from the combination of the words “velvet” and “crochet.” It is made up of two strips of fabric in which one is covered in thousands of tiny hooks and the other with thousands of tiny loops. It was discovered by George de Mestral.
Answer:
protected; increase
Explanation:
Ozone is composed of trioxygen which is highly reactive gas compared to dioxygen. Ozone layer is present in stratosphere and troposphere and protect the humans from ultraviolet radiations but it may be toxic if inhaled. Ozone can be broken down into molecular oxygen by chlorine and bromine atoms.
A hole was discovered in ozone layer in 1982 and scientist believed that it could be dangerous for human health. The compounds involved in depletion of ozone are mainly Chlorofluorocarbons (CFS) and (HFCS). Then a global agreement was signed in 1987 which leads to prohibition of use of all chemicals that are involved in depletion of ozone layer. The problem of ozone depletion is solved by the agreement and ozone hole started to recover it from 2000.
But recent reports showed that the alternative chemicals used to protect the depletion of ozone layer began to trap the heat inside the earth like greenhouse effect. Now scientists are in search of chemical that can prevent both ozone depletion as well as global warming.
