How does Messi keep the ball close to himself

Your friend
The science of how Messi keeps the ball close to himself photo credit: ZaleDesigns Messi is a magician with the ball at his feet. He's in my opinion the best player in the sense that he can control the ball so well, runs so fast with the ball & changes the direction at full speed like it's a walk in the park. For starters he started playing very early (at 3) which is crucial if you want to be a good player. In that aspect, he's God gifted as he had dribble skills which is genetic in my opinion. Height He is short which means a low center of gravity so it's difficult to push him off the ball. That's why we see that anyone rarely can topple him down, instead players much larger than him lose possession to him. So his short height suits his style of play & is a blessing in disguise. Change of pace Messi changes his pace really well. He starts slow and runs directly at the defender which means the defender has to stop & focus on him. When he reac...

What is transportation in plant.

Biology - Transportation in Plants

Introduction

  • The plants have low energy needs, as they use relatively slow transport systems.

  • Plant transport systems move energy from leaves and raw materials from roots to all their parts.

  • The xylem (tissue) moves water and minerals obtained from the soil to all other parts of the plants.

  • The phloem (tissue) transports products of photosynthesis from the leaves (where they are synthesized) to other parts of the plant.

Movement of Water in Plants

  • Water moves into the root from the soil and then steady it moves into the root xylem, creating a column of water, which is progressively pushed upwards.

Movement of Water Plants

  • Evaporation of water molecules from the cells of a leaf (see the image given above) creates a suction process, which pulls water from the xylem cells of roots; this process keeps going on.

  • The loss of water in the form of vapor from the leaves (i.e. aerial parts) of the plant is known as transpiration.

  • Transpiration, likewise, helps in the absorption and upward movement of water and minerals dissolved in it from roots to the leaves.

  • Transpiration also helps in the temperature regulation (in plants).

  • The transport of soluble products of photosynthesis is known as translocation, which occurs in the part of the vascular tissue known as phloem.

  • Along with photosynthesis products, the phloem also transports amino acids and other substances, which are ultimately delivered to roots, fruits, seeds, and to growing organs.

why do we fall sick?

Your friend
Biology - Why do We Fall Ill Introduction Health means a state of mental, physical, and social well-being. The health of an organism largely depends on his/her surroundings or the environment. a sick man Major causes of poor health are - the garbage, which is thrown in an open area nearby residence or streets, or/and the open drain water lying stagnant around the residence area. The public cleanliness is the key of good health. Some diseases, last only for a short period of time, are known as  acute diseases . E.g. cold, fever, etc. The diseases that last for a long period of time, even as much as a lifetime, are known as  chronic diseases . E.g. asthma, osteoporosis, etc. Chronic diseases, normally, have very severe long-term effects on people’s health as compared to the acute diseases. Infectious Diseases When microbes are the immediate causes of a disease, it is known as  infectious diseases . Some of the major agents of infectious diseases are viruses, bacteria, fungi...

Chemical reactions and equations

Your friend
Chemistry - Chemical Reactions & Equations Introduction A process in which one or more chemical substances react with other chemical substance and converted to one or more different substances is known as chemical reaction. Chemical Equation A chemical equation is the symbolic demonstration of a chemical reaction; it is represented through symbols and formulae. E.g. Magnesium + Oxygen = Magnesium Oxide Mg   +   O 2   =   MgO The substances magnesium and oxygen are known as reactants and the result of reaction, i.e., magnesium oxide is known as product. Remember,  the total mass of the elements present in the products of a chemical reaction has to be equal to the total mass of the elements present in the reactants. The number of atoms of each element always remains same, before and after the chemical reaction. Types of Chemical Reaction Following are the major types of chemical reaction − Combination Reaction Decomposition Reaction Displacement Re...

explain the element iron

Your friend
Chemistry - Iron Introduction Iron is the most common element found in largely in outer as well inner core of the earth. The symbol of iron is  ‘Fe’  and atomic number is  ‘26.’ Iron is one of the earliest known elements that is being used by human beings. Salient Features of Iron Following are the major features of iron − Pure iron element is soft, ductile, and malleable. The boiling point of iron ranges between 1533 0 C and 2450 0 C. Iron easily gets attracted towards magnet. In dry air, iron remains inactive and does not react (with air); however, in moist air, it reacts and forms rust. Pure iron normally does not react with pure water; however, it reacts easily with ordinary of polluted water and rust forms. Iron reacts with halogen and Sulphur to form halide and sulphide accordingly. Occurrence of Iron The inner and outer cores of the earth are largely made up of iron and nickel. Most likely, iron is the most abundantly available element of the earth; however, it is ...
