Explanation:
1) To change from Centigrade to Fahrenheit. Multiply by 9, divide by 5 and then add 32 to it.
2) bromine, iodine, fluorine, chlorine, astatine and tennessine collectively known as Halogens. The halogens are highly reactive non-metallic elements.
3) The SI unit of electrical resistivity is the ohm⋅metre (Ω⋅m).
4) compensation point The point reached in a plant when the rate of photosynthesis is equal to the rate of respiration. This means that the carbon dioxide released from respiration is equivalent to that which is taken up during photosynthesis.
5) The Jupiter Effect is a 1974 book by John Gribbin and Stephen Plagemann, in which the authors predicted that an alignment of the planets of the Solar System would create a number of catastrophes, including a great earthquake on the San Andreas Fault, on March 10, 1982.
6) Raindrops start to form in a roughly spherical structure due to the surface tension of water.
7) The zygomaticus major is a muscle of the human body. It is a muscle of facial expression which draws the angle of the mouth superiorly and posteriorly to allow one to smile.
8) Glucose is the main source of fuel for our cells. When the body doesn't need to use the glucose for energy, it stores it in the liver and muscles.
9) A downward arrow in the equation for a reaction indicates that the compound is a solid and was formed by the mixing of two aqueous solutions.
10) An auxanometer is an apparatus for measuring increase of growth in plants.
11) Osmosis, the spontaneous passage or diffusion of water or other solvents through a semipermeable membrane.
12) Incandescence is the emission of electromagnetic radiation from a hot body as a result of its high temperature.
