Physicists have long been fascinated with dark matter. Scientists discovered that observable matter, stars, galaxies, nebulae, and planets, can only account for 5% of the universe’s structure.
Scientists have recently unraveled the decades-old mystery of the pigeons travelling hundreds of miles.
Cells not only are able to catabolize glucose and other carbohydrates to meet their energy needs but also can synthesize sugars and polysaccharides needed for other purposes.
India is not short of ideas. Every year, universities produce thousands of engineers and researchers, laboratories generate studies, and start-ups promise new solutions in healthcare, technology and sustainability.
The contamination of the environment by pesticides cannot be prevented by purification facilities and trapping devices. Enormous areas of agricultural lands and hundreds of thousands of tonnes of products are treated with pesticides; consequently, they continuously circulate in the habitat of humans.
As the global shift towards sustainable energy solutions accelerates, electric vehicles (EVs) have become central to this transformation. However, the rapid expansion of the EV market presents significant challenges, particularly in managing the growing volume of electronic waste (e-waste).
Some pathogenic microorganisms (bacilli of anthrax, Clostridium perfringens, S. pneumoniae, causative agents of plague and tularaemia) are capable of producing a capsule in animal and human bodies. Certain microorganisms produce capsules in the organism as well as in nutrient media (causative agents of rhinoscleroma, ozaena, and pneumonia).
As per the Indian Union Minister of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution and Minister of New and Renewable Energy, Mr Pralhad Joshi, India's capacity has almost quadrupled from just 76 GW in 2014 to 200 GW in June 2024. Not just that, solar energy has seen particularly remarkable growth, growing from just 3 GW at the time to a staggering 85 GW in the present.
After some thought, I decided to base my list on the spiritual implications of the laws. Such associations suggest that these laws (applicable to inert objects in physics) are perhaps special cases of more far-reaching principles applicable to our entire existence.
Delivery vehicles, along with the wider freight ecosystem, which involves larger categories of vehicles, including trucks, release lakhs of tons of carbon emissions into our already polluted cities and streets.
