The Difference Between

Mmmm you will know very quickly if asked to touch your toes while the thermometer is inserted - the difference will become quite plain!

Clinical thermometers are calibrated to temepratures around that with which life revolves - there is no use having 100 degrees C on a clinical thermometer as you would be quite dead (and bubbling!) if you got that hot!

Lab thermometers can look like Clinical thermometers - but can also be much larger, made of metal or glass or plastic, electronic, infrared, coated (teflon etc), and can have scales going up to many hundreds of degrees C (and down well below zero too).

a radiator is used to cool down the engine using a liquid, whereas an intercooler is used to cool the air going to the engine or cooling the air comming from a turbo. What that does is that there will be more air particles in a defined volume of space if the air is cold, compared to hot air in the same volume of space. This is due to air contracting in cold temperatures. The result is more air going to the engine and therefore more generating more power.

"Dependence" refers to relying on someone or something for support or assistance, while "independence" refers to the state of being self-reliant and not requiring outside help or control. Dependance implies a need for others, whereas independence implies autonomy and freedom from external influences.

essential elements(EE) are those that are required for the completion of the plant life cycle..whereas beneficial elements (BE) are those which promote plant growth but are not necessary for the plant life cycle. EE - there are 3 criteria for the elements to be essential BE - there are no such criteria formulated. EE - eg. Mangenese magnesium calcium boron potassium iron zinc etc. There are 17 EE have been found. BE - eg. Silicon sodium cobalt aluminum and selenium. EE - they are involved in metabolic activities of plant. Production of chlorophyll reproductive and vegetative growth etc. BE - they enhance the resistnce to pathogens drought salinity and nutrient toxicity or deficiency. Enhance plant nutritional value. {ANSWERED BY SHAHEDA }

Primary treatment of wastewater involves physical processes like screening and settlement to remove large solids, while secondary treatment uses biological processes to break down organic matter through the action of microorganisms. Secondary treatment is a more advanced and effective method for treating wastewater than primary treatment, as it can further reduce contaminants and improve water quality before discharge.

Viscoelastic solids return, for the most part, to their original shape when a substantial applied shear load is removed. Viscoelastic fluids do not. This distinction does not have a clear boundary as viscoelastic materials all have both fluid and solid properties.

It is a common misconception that roundness and cylindricity can be checked by taking diametral measurements (as with a micrometer) or by using an indicator and vee block. A diametral measurement does just what the words imply; it measures the diameter. It does not check the shape of the surface which is what roundness and cylindricity control.

Total runout involves moving the dial indicator along the length of the part while the part is rotated, so that it controls the cumulative variations of circularity, cylindricity, straightness, coaxiality, angularity, taper, and profile.

A DNA probe is a single-stranded DNA sequence used to detect complementary sequences, whereas a primer is a short single-stranded DNA sequence used to initiate DNA synthesis during PCR. Probes are used to identify specific sequences in a sample, while primers are used to amplify a specific target sequence.

Vital movement refers to voluntary movements carried out by living organisms, whereas Brownian movement is the random movement of particles in a fluid due to collision with surrounding molecules. Vital movement requires energy and is purposeful, while Brownian movement is passive and does not serve a specific function.

Yes, your body can tell the difference between honey and sugar. Honey and sugar are both sources of sweetness, but honey contains additional nutrients and antioxidants that sugar does not. Your body will metabolize honey differently than sugar due to its unique chemical composition.

A physical change doesn't change the molecular properties of a substance. Some examples of physical changes include tearing paper, or the evaporation of water.

A chemical change does change the molecular properties of a substance. For example, if you burn wood you get leftover carbon, and CO2 is also released; no longer does the wood have the same molecular properties or structure.

Ultra Direct Memory Access (UDMA) is just an advanced, updated version of Direct Memory Access. It introduced features such as double transition clocking (similar to DDR used with memory) and CRC checks.

DMA offered speeds up to 16.7 MB/s whereas UDMA offered speeds up to 133 MB/s per channel (UDMA Mode 6).

Aluminum foil is a thin, flexible sheet of aluminum used for wrapping food or covering surfaces, while aluminum rod is a solid cylindrical piece of aluminum commonly used in construction or manufacturing. Aluminum powder is a finely ground form of aluminum used in various applications like paints, explosives, and fireworks. Each form of aluminum has different properties and uses based on its shape and size.

A mirror reflects light by bouncing it off a smooth surface, creating a clear image. A crystal, on the other hand, has a three-dimensional structure that can refract and disperse light, creating colorful patterns and effects. Mirrors show a true reflection, while crystals create a more whimsical and dynamic visual experience.

Male pee tends to have a slightly more acidic pH than women pee. This is because a male's digestive track is more acidic than a women's. This is the reason for the burning sensation some men experience in their penis when they pee. Some try to counteract this by eating baking soda or another very basic solution (I've also heard that drain-o works well).

Tomography works by capturing multiple cross-sectional images of an object from different angles and then reconstructing these images to create a 3D representation of the object. This technique allows for detailed imaging of the internal structures of an object, such as in medical imaging where it is used in CT scans to visualize the body's tissues and organs.

One pretty important difference is that relative velocity exists and absolute velocity doesn't.

Velocity is always measured and described relative to something. There's no such thing as the

"real speed" of a moving object. In fact, according to a scientist who's riding on the object, it's

not moving at all. (Close your eyes right now and feel the earth move ?)

In general, there is no significant difference between men and women's urine. However, the composition of urine can vary based on factors such as hydration, diet, and overall health, which can differ between individuals regardless of gender.

Setting means the top layer is sealed. For example, if you apply nail polish and turn your finger upside down, it'll drip. This is wet. If you turn it over and it doesn't drip, but touch it and it gets a fingerprint or marked easily, it's set. If you have to scratch hard and actually attempt to ruin it, it's dry.

Octane is an eight-carbon hydrocarbon compound commonly found in gasoline, while dodecane is a twelve-carbon hydrocarbon that is typically used as a standard reference in chromatography. Octane is lighter and more volatile compared to dodecane, which has a higher molecular weight and boiling point.

proteins from animal origin are called first class proteins. meat and fish are first class proteins because they contain all the essential amino acids (which cannot be made by the body), plant proteins are called second class proteins.

The terms "endothermic" and "exothermic" refer to whether a chemical reaction absorbs or releases heat, respectively. In an endothermic reaction, heat is absorbed from the surroundings, while in an exothermic reaction, heat is released into the surroundings.

Truly pure silver is dead soft and doesn't get brittle. In fact true pure silver goes dead soft.

Precipitation refers to water falling from the sky in various forms, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Perspiration, on the other hand, is the process of sweating through your skin as a way for the body to regulate temperature and cool down.
