Next month I'm shifting to a hostel for my class 12 year because my parents think the commute is eating into my study time. I'm excited and nervous in equal parts, and one of my nervous parts is food. The mess serves din
Football match tomorrow so I'm revising in the break and trying to keep it simple. Body Fluids and Circulation, the middle topics: 1. NCERT says that as blood passes through capillaries, some water and small water-solubl

I made a colour-coded table for enzyme inhibition green for competitive, orange for the other one and I still get the Km/Vmax part wrong every single time. What I understood from NCERT: the enzyme has an active site, the

Chapter: Plant Growth and Development. I came back from football practice and sat down with NCERT, brain still half on the field, so please forgive any silly questions ⚽ 1. NCERT says plant growth is "indeterminate" or "
