Question

What is plasticity .?

Answer 1

Heya mate

The answer of ur question is


♢ It is the ability to change due to influence of external and internal stimuli.


☆ Intrinsic plasticity ( genetic and internal plasticity ) found in juvenile stage of many plants like cotton, larkspur, cariander .

☆ Extrinsic plasticity or environmental plasticity - Found in some aquatic plants like trapa, buttercup etc

♢ In both case ( Intrinsic and Extrinsic plasticity ) heterophylly is common i.e. plant bears more than one type of leaves



hope it helps

Answer 2

$\huge\textbf{Plasticity :}$

→ It is defined as inability of body or material to restore it's original configuration or shape after the removal of deforming force.

[Deforming force = The force that tries to deform the original configuration.]



→ Force required in it is higher.



→ The process is irreversible.



→ When a stress is applied on material which are ductile and brittle. They show Plasticity.

[Stress = It is defined as restoring force acting per unit area of a deform body.]



→ Materials that show plasticity don't have elastic properties.

[Elasticity = The property of a body to completely regain it's original configuration after the removal of deforming force.]



→ Example :- Clay, wax, mud etc.
