physiological traits determinant.
Some think that it is also reponsible character determination, in humans.
Clonning.
Islamic teachings about it.

Thermistor:
A type of an electrical device/A semiconductor, which regulates the current flow under the influence of heat.
Used in sensitive heat measuring/operative devices e.g thermocouples/ers


Thermostat:
Thermo= Heat, Stat= Statically stable
Its a thermo-electrical device.
works on the principle of thermal expansion.
Used as a temperature regulator in home appliances like refrigerators, ac,and iron.

Q5: already answered, see above.

Q:6
A dam is a storage of water, while a barrage is made to increase the water depth.
Benefits of Dams:
Leverage to agriculture, by making use of the rain water also.
Ensures regulated flow in the streams. So is an agricultural blessing.
Electricity Production is cheaper for a big dam.
By the constructoin of big dams, we get an employment channel for our talented Pakistanis.

2) False, both are invisible
3) Seriously talking, this is a real tricky one and i would have dropped it.
4) False, it moves through the wire and creates an field around the wire.
5) False,
6) True, the molecules of a metal are closely packed, hense the density is higher.
7) False, the correct name for it is wheatstone bridge.
8) True
9) False, since no lens is used so far to cure a mental disease.
10)True

Q8:
1) Telemeter is used to convey the physical satistics to a distance, while a multimeter is a complex device, having a potentiometer and ammeter.
2) Perimeter is a conceptual term, while the altimeter is a device, for measuring the altitudes.
3) In microscope, the channel of light waves is straigt, while in a periscope, it is bended by the use of a mirror o a prism.
4) Nucleon is a sub-nuclear particle, while a photon is n energy packet.
5) Cusec is a measure of flow, while comet is an object.

Q9: already answered. Yet i think it is the Hydrometer instead of a lactometer.

Q10: Pass

Q11:
a) 1- In unconscious sleep, the tongue droops back due to muscular relaxation.
2- The tongue comes in the way of wir channel and flutters and hits the pallete.

b) 1- Sometimes our unconcious mind takes over.
2- The unconcious is derived by the conscious, thts why we have fewer accidents.

2- The weight on the limbs is also lessened, so they get tired a little late then otherwise.

d) 1- Because generally, the drain pipes are round and it is easy to connect through them in this way.
2- The weight is distributed at every angle evenly, So it is easy to lift them off from any corner.

e) 1- The centifugal force experienced by the vehicle is lowered by the raised end, so the vehicle doesnot skitt or goes off from the road.
2- The centripetal force is supplemented by the gravitaional forces from below.

Q12:

Minerals:
These are the ground matters, naturally occuring abundantly in the non-livings also.
examples are sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphorous, iron, sulphur and molybdenum etc.

Vitamins:
These are chemical compounds which are synthesized naturally by living cells.
They are vital for physical functions, but are not primarily required for the basic function of life like metabolism including both, the catabolism and anabolism.

b) For bones, calcium is the major component alonwith the phosphorous. While the absorption of these is vitalised by the vitamin D.
