A gene pool is the complete set of unique alleles in a species or a population. A large gene pool indicates extensive genetic diversity, which is associated with robust populations.
A culture of disaster safety is yet to be inculcated in our country. Disaster risk reduction however can become a reality if introduced in institutions like schools and colleges.
Without a national programme to make CFL disposal easy for the average consumer, millions of CFLs reaching the end of their life will silently release mercury–a deadly toxin, into India’s waste stream...
The carbon cycle is the process by which carbon from the atmosphere, in the form of carbon dioxide gas, is circulated through the ecosystem. Carbon dioxide is an inorganic compound. It is converted to organic carbon compound by plants on land and algae in the oceans, which use it to make food, carbohydrates, by photosynthesis.
