According to law of conservation of energy, energy is always undergoing transformation from one form to the other but is never being created or destroyed in the universe.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The law of conservation of energy states “energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only be transferred from one form to the other.” Thus the total energy in the universe would be a constant.  In mechanical terms energy can be classified as potential and kinetic energy.

Potential energy is possessed by an object by virtue of its position or configuration.  Kinetic energy is possessed by an object by virtue of its motion. Thus objects in motion will have kinetic energy and objects at rest will possess potential energy.

It is the potential energy that gets converted to kinetic energy and vice versa. There is no creation of energy or destruction of energy. Thus the sum of kinetic and potential energy which is called mechanical energy remains constant.

Answer:

Law of conservation  of energy is one of the basic laws of the Physics.

Explanation:

According to the Law of conservation of energy, the total energy of an isolated system doesn't change, Energy may be transformed from one to another but the total energy of an isolated system remains constant.    There have different forms of energy like- kinetic energy, potential energy, chemical energy, thermal energy , electrical energy. the potential energy is converting into kinetic energy in the water falls. When kicking a football, energy is transferred from the body of the kicker to the ball.

An example of an endothermic process is Boiling. 
An endothermic reaction is any chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its environment. Boiling is a course by which a liquid changes into a vapor when it is heated to its boiling point. The shift from a liquid phase to a gaseous phase happens when the vapor pressure of the liquid is of the same level to the atmospheric pressure exerted on the liquid.

Sheath of schwann cell containing cytoplasm and nucleus that encloses myelin is called
zmey [24]

Answer:

Neurilemma

Explanation:

Schwann cells are the neuroglia that produces myelin sheaths. There is a formation of multiple layers of the glial plasma membrane around axons. The cytoplasm and nucleus of Schwann cells from the outermost layer while the inner part has multiple layers of the Schwann cell membrane. The outer nucleated cytoplasmic layer of the Schwann cell that encloses the myelin sheath is called neurolemma. It is found only around axons in the PNS. Its function is to serve in the regeneration of injured axons by the formation of a regeneration tube.
