What is a median in math?

What is a median in math? The median is the middle number in a sorted, ascending or descending, list of numbers and can be more descriptive of that data set than the average. Median is the middle number in a sorted list of numbers. To determine the median value in a sequence of numbers, the numbers must first be sorted, or arranged, in value order from lowest to highest or highest to lowest. If there is an odd amount of numbers, the median value is the number that is in the middle, with the same amount of numbers below and above. If there is an even amount of numbers in the list, the middle pair must be determined, added together, and divided by two to find the median value. The median is sometimes used as opposed to the mean when there are outliers in the sequence that might skew the average of the values.  You may like What is manifesting? What is electric Charge?

How do the organisms under Animalia Kingdom reproduce?

How do the organisms under the Animalia Kingdom reproduce? They breed through sexual reproduction. A haploid gamete is produced from the reproductive organs of mature and diploid males and females. Embryonic layers are developed in embryonic development. You may like to read What is the binomial name of Jackfruit? What is the binomial name of Jute? What is the binomial name of Mango?

What do you mean by binomial nomenclature?

What do you mean by binomial nomenclature? The scientific name of an organism is constituted of two parts. The first part of the name denotes the genus to which the species belongs; the second part identifies the species within the genus. The scientific name of potato is Solanum tuberosum , for example. The word solanum and tuberosum denote the genus and species name of potato respectively. You may like to read What is the binomial name of Jackfruit? What is the binomial name of Jute?

Which branch of biology does genetics belong to? Explain.

Which branch of biology does genetics belong to? Explain. Genetics is dealt with under the branch of physical biology. Genetics is the branch of biology that deals with theoretical knowledge of genes and heredity. Since it does not deal with the application of the subject, so it is considered under the branch of physical biology. You may like to read Which branch of biology does genetics belong to? Explain.

Kingdom Animalia

Image
Kingdom Animalia Characteristics: They are eukaryotic and multicellular animals. Their cells do not have nonliving cell walls, plastids, or vacuoles in them. As there are no plastids cells, they are heterotrophs, and so they depend on other organisms for their food. After ingestion, they digest their food. They have advanced and complex tissue systems. Sexual reproduction is their usual way of reproduction. Haploid gametes are usually produced in the reproductive organs of mature and diploid males and females. Embryonic layers are developed at the time of their embryonic development. Examples: The entire invertebrate and vertebrate animals except for protozoan. Thomas Cavlier-Smith from Oxford University divided the kingdom Protista of the living world into two groups, protozoa and chromista, and renamed the kingdom Monera as the Kingdom of Bacteria in 2004. In this way, he grouped the living world into six kingdoms.  You may like What do you mean by hierarchy? Why blue green

Branches of Biology

Branches of Biology When we look around us, we see two types of living things - plants and animals. Based on this, for a long time, biology was divided into two branches - Botany and Zoology. However, the field of biology has expanded so much that it is not enough to confine its study to these two branches only. There are many living beings that are neither plants nor animals, such as bacteria, fungi. The classification is not appropriate when analyzing common characteristics of animals, plants, bacteria, fungi, viruses, etc. So now also biology has been classified into many branches. Considering its aspect, there are also two other divisions of biology - Physical Biology and Applied Biology. Physical Biology In the field of Physical Biology, theoretical concepts are usually discussed. The following subjects are the general fields of its concern. Morphology: This deals with the form and structure of organisms. It is usually divided into two branches - external and internal morpholog

Concept of Biology

Concept of Biology In nature, we generally find two types of objects: non-living things and living organisms. The characteristics of non-living things are usually discussed in Physics and Chemistry. Biology is the branch of scientific knowledge concerning the life and characteristics of organisms.  But it is really difficult to find the very faint line of difference between living and non-living. In fact, physics and chemistry embody the principles of fundamentals of life, even non-living.  So, in order to understand living organisms, it is necessary to know about the physical sciences i.e. physics and chemistry. But it is wrong to think that it is not necessary to study biology if we have knowledge of physical sciences. Rather, life may be considered a complex combination of many non-living things in which some new characteristics occur. For example, the properties of water do not resemble that of hydrogen and oxygen, though it is made up of these two elements. So, although living

What do you understand by phosphorylation?

What do you understand by phosphorylation? When one or more phosphorus / phosphoric acid forms a bond with adenosine generated from a nitrogenous base and a pentose sugar- Adenosine Monophosphate, Diphosphate, Triphosphate are created. Usually, this phosphate addition reaction does not require external energy input and is widely known as phosphorylation. You May Like What is zoom?

What do you understand by anaerobic respiration?

What do you understand by anaerobic respiration? The respiration which occurs in absence of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. In anaerobic respiration, respiratory substances being partially oxidized with the help of enzymes, produce different types of organic compounds (ethyl alcohol, lactic acid, etc), CO2 and a small amount of energy. Only in some microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast, etc. anaerobic respiration occurs. You May Like What is zoom? Affect vs Effect What do you understand by phosphorylation?

When you open the gas cylinder used for cooking, which action takes place first diffusion or effusion?

When you open the gas cylinder used for cooking, which action takes place first diffusion or effusion? The pressures of the ingredients of body spray inside and outside of the container are not the same. The pressure is greater inside the container. When the molecules of the gas come out through small pores into a low-pressure zone from a high-pressure zone, effusion happens. Due to the application of pressure, the molecules present in body spray come out through the small pores. The spontaneous movement is blocked by the pore of the container. The bigger the pore size, the more spontaneous the movement is. When the condition becomes absolutely pressure-less, it becomes diffusion. So in the case of a body spray, first effusion takes place, then diffusion happens. You may like Do I need car insurance? What is car insurance? How could I get cheaper car insurance?

Why is a convex mirror called a diverging mirror? If the convex surface of a sphere acts as the reflector, that is if the regular reflection of light takes place from the convex surface of the spherical mirror, then it is called a convex mirror.  The convex mirror is a diverging mirror since the parallel beam of light diverges from a point on spreads over and never meets at a point after reflection.

Conditions of floatation and immersion of a body?

Conditions of floatation and immersion of a body? The conditions of the floating or sinking of an object are - a) If W 1 >W 2 , or if the weight of the object is more than the liquid abstracted by the object then the object will sink in the liquid. b) If W 1 >W 2 , or if the weight of the object is equal to the liquid abstracted by the object then the object will float in a completely submerged state. c) If  W 1 < W 2 , or if the weight of the object is less than the liquid abstracted by the object then the object will float in a partially submerged state.

How can you understand that a slide callipers has an instrumental error?

How can you understand those slide calipers has an instrumental error? Kinetic theory of molecules is based upon these postulates: Any substance is made of numerous small particles. These are known as molecules. Molecules are so small that they are considered point-like. The particles are always moving. In the case of gases, the molecules remain very distantly, so it can be said that they do not feel any attractive or repulsive force. In the case of liquid, though they remain away from each other, they face the shape of the container. For solid objects, they remain close as they face a strong attraction force, and thus they have their own shape and size. For gases and liquids, the particles move randomly as they collide with each other and the wall of the container.
