Define stack.discuss push and pop operation?
A stack is a region of memory that you store things, and retrieve them in the reverse order of storage. Think of it as a stack of papers. You write something down on a piece of paper, and then you put that paper in a stack, specifically on the top of the stack. This is called a push operation. If you want to go and do something else, such as service an interrupt or call another function, you create more pieces of paper and you push them onto the top of the stack as well. Under normal conditions, you cannot access anything on the stack below the top. I say "normal" because the architecture of the processor allows you to access chunks of memory contained within the stack, relative to the base pointer BP, allowing you to pass arguments and store temporary variables in what is called a stack frame. The reverse of push is called pop, and it is equivalent to taking a piece of paper off of the top of the stack and throwing it away - or using it, whatever you want - but that action exposes the next piece of paper, which is now the new "top of stack".
What is wrong if the sink and the bathtub will drain but the toilet wont flush?

Why water bubble out from concrete slab surface when the downstream 12-foot far away kitchen sink is drain?
The drain pipe is cracked or broken at some point under the slab and where it is coming out is the first crack in the cement it found.

How does a sink work to drain water effectively?
A sink works to drain water effectively by using a drain pipe connected to a trap, which prevents odors from coming back up. When water is poured down the sink, it flows through the drain pipe and into the sewer system, carrying away any debris or waste. The force of gravity helps the water flow smoothly through the pipes and out of the sink, allowing it to drain effectively.
