DMPQ: Micropropagation, Somatic hybridisation, Single cell protein, Mutation breeding

by

Micropropagation Ans:  Method of producing thousands of plants through tissue culture is called micropropagation. Each of these plants will be genetically identical to the original plant from which they are grown. They are soma clones. Somatic hybridisation Ans:  In somatic hybridisation cell wall is removed by digesting it with enzyme like pectinase and cellulase. Isolated … Read more DMPQ: Micropropagation, Somatic hybridisation, Single cell protein, Mutation breeding

DMPQ: What is free space optical communication? Write down its advantages ( science)

by

FSOC technology uses beams of light to deliver high speed, high capacity connectivity over a long distance.  The energy beam is sent through clean air or space from the source to the destination, rather than guided through an optical fibre. As long as there is a clear line of sight between the source and the … Read more DMPQ: What is free space optical communication? Write down its advantages ( science)

DMPQ: Define- Comets, Dark matter, Dark energy and Fundamental particle (Science)

by

Q.  Comets Ans:   Comets originate in outer solar system and are formed of cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, rock and dust that orbit the sun. When a comet’s orbit bring it close to the sun ,it heat up and spewn dust and gases into a giant glowing head larger than most planets.   Q.  Dark … Read more DMPQ: Define- Comets, Dark matter, Dark energy and Fundamental particle (Science)

DMPQ: Define all All four questions are from science- Neutrino, Indian -based Neutrino observatory, Goldilock zone, Internet of things

by

Neutrino Ans:   Neutrinos are one of the fundamental particles which make up the universe and second most abundant particle in the universe after photon. Neutrinos are similar to electron with one crucial difference that they don not carry electric charge.   Indian -based Neutrino observatory Ans:   It is being set up in Bodhi west Hill, … Read more DMPQ: Define all All four questions are from science- Neutrino, Indian -based Neutrino observatory, Goldilock zone, Internet of things

DMPQ: Explain: Prahaar,  Sagarika, Shaurya

by

Prahaar –            The Prahaar is India’s latest surface-to-surface missile with a range of 150 kms. The primary objective of the conventionally armed Prahaar missile is to bridge the gap between the unguided Pinaka multi-barrel rocket launcher (ranging 45 kms) and the guided Prithvi missile variants. Stated to be a unique missile, the Prahaar boasts of … Read more DMPQ: Explain: Prahaar,  Sagarika, Shaurya
