SPACE-ASTEROIDS,COMETS,AND METEOROIDS

  ASTEROIDS,COMETS,AND  METEOROIDS  are   all   debris  remaining  from  the    nebula  in  which   the Solar  System   formed 4.6  billions  years  ago.Asteroids  are  rocky   bodies   up  to  about  1,000  km  in  diameter  ,  although     most  are   much  smaller .Most  of  them  orbit    the  Sun    in  the asteroids   belts,  which lies   between   the  orbit     of  mars  and Jupiter.Comets   may  originate  in    huge   cloud (called  the   ourt cloud),  that  is  thought  to   surround   the  Solar System .They  are made  of  frozen...

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think and learn like humans . These systems can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as learning, problem-solving, and decision-making. AI encompasses a wide range of technologies, including machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing.     Simulation of Human Intelligence: AI aims to create machines that can mimic human cognitive functions, like learning, reasoning, and problem-solving.   Algorithms and Models: AI systems rely on algorithms and models that analyze data, identify patterns, and make decisions based on that analysis.   Learning and Adaptation: A core aspect of AI is its ability to learn from experience and adapt to new inputs, allowing it to improve its performance over time.   Wide Range of Applications : AI has diverse applications, from virtual assistants and recommendation syste...

THE DINOSAURS

  THE   DINOSAURS   WERE  A  LARGE  GROUP  of   reptiles  that   were  the  dominant    land   vertebrates  (animals  with  backbones),  for  most  of  the Mesozoic   era(245-65  million  years  ago). They   appeared   some  250   million  years  ago    and  were  distinguished  from  other scaly ,  egg  laying   reptiles   by  an  important  feature ; dinosaurs  had   erect   limb   stance .This   enabled  them     to keep   their  bodies   well   above  the  ground ,  unlike  the  sprawling   and  semi sprawling     stance  of  oth...

ANIMAL-KINGDOM-SPONGES,JELLYFISH,AND SEA ANEMONES.

ANIMAL KINGDOM-INSECTS

  THE  WORD  INSECT   REFER  TO  small   invertebrate  creatures,   especially    those   with  bodies  divided  into   sections.Insects ,   including  beetles,ants,bees,butterflies,and  moths ,  belong   to  various   orders  in  the   class  insect a,  which  is  a division   of  the  phylum  Arthropods.Features     common  to  all   insects   are  an  exoskeleton (external  skeleton),  three  pairs  of  jointed  legs , three  body  sections (head,thprax,and abdomen );and  one  pair  of  sensory  antennae  .Beetles  are   the biggest  group  of  insects ,   with  about  500,000...

AMIMAL KINGDOM-STAR FISH AND SEA URCHINS

  STARFISH  ,SEA URCHINS, AND  OTHER ,relatives (including  feather star,basket star,  sea daisies, sea lilies,and sea cucumbers)  make  up   the phylum   Echinoderm. A unique  feature   of  the Echinoderms   is  the  water  vascular  system,  which  consists  of  a  series  of   water   filled   canals   from  which  protrude  thousands  of  tiny  tube    feet  . The  tube feet   may  be  used  for  movement, feeding, or  respiration.Other  features  include   pentaradiate  symmetry  that  is  the  body  can  be  divided   into  five parts   radiating   from  the cent re ); no  head ; diffuse ;decentralized ...
