World Deserts Map
A desert is a region that obtains incredibly less amount of precipitation or it can be also defined as an area where more water is lost by evaporation than water received by precipitation. Most deserts receive an average precipitation of less than 400 mm annually. The deserts in the world are divided into three types. Apart from these the Polar Regions are also measured as deserts because virtually all the moisture in these parts is accumulated in the form of ice.


Where is the great Indian Desert located ?
The Great Indian Desert lies to the South-west of the fertile Northern Plain or the Gangetic Plain. It is also called the Thar Desert. The Aravali Hills divide Rajasthan into two parts. The Western part of Rajasthan is the Great Indian Desert. Its soil is composed of sand, hard rocks and sand dunes. In the given map you find that the Great Indian Desert extends from the Aravalis in the East to Pakistan in the West.


Where is the great Indian Desert located ?
Actually the Indian Desert is a part of a very big desert. The Thar Desert which extends to Sindh in Pakistan and beyond Pakistan to Arabia. The Great Indian Desert is a vast stretch of sand and sand dunes which is about 500 km. long and 200 to 250 km.


The World's Largest Deserts
The table at the bottom of this page provides the names, generalized locations and surface areas of over twenty major deserts. Base map by NOAA.. A desert is a landscape or region that receives very little precipitation-less than 250 mm per year (about ten inches). Approximately 1/3 of Earth's land surface is a desert. There are four different types of deserts based upon their geographic situation: 1) polar deserts; 2) subtropical deserts, 3) cold winter deserts, and 4) cool coastal deserts. As shown on the map above, deserts occur on all of Earth's continents.

It is very difficult to find fresh turmeric root in a store, as one would find ginger root etc. So for one who chooses to grow the plant, the options are in finding a specialty health food store (or Indian foods) and select a mature rhizome which they can plant.


How to grow... turmeric
To grow your own turmeric, choose the largest, least shrivelled roots you can find. Leave these in a warm, dry place out of direct sun until shoots appear. This can take several weeks and, although not essential, it lessens the likelihood of the roots rotting before they begin to grow.

Ghast
1 On rare occasions, a ghast will spawn in such a way as to see through blocks (usually trapped on all sides in a tight area). 2  When this happens and the ghast has âline of sight through those blocks, it will launch a fireball in the player's direction.


Harlem Shake (meme)
The form of the meme was established in a video uploaded on January 30, 2013 by YouTuber George Miller's character Filthy Frank, to the channel DizastaMusic, entitled FILTHY COMPILATION #6 - SMELL MY FINGERS, which featured a section where several costumed people danced to the song  Harlem Shake  by Baauer.


Ghast
1 In Creative, you can go inside of a ghast by falling through the top of it or flying up underneath it. 2  If you stand on top of the head you will see inside of it. 3  Ghasts can cause other mobs to attack it, but the ghast will never target other mobs; it will only target the player.

Ghast
Ghasts normally float around the Nether with their eyes and mouth closed and periodically make high-pitched, cat-or infant-like sounds. They open their red eyes and mouth when attacking. They make a chirp-like noise when shooting and scream pitifully when taking damage. The sounds that ghasts make have a minimum intensity regardless of their distance, meaning that they can sound closer than they actually are. They have a size of 4Ã4Ã4 blocks, as well as 9 tentacles about the size of a player, although longer and skinnier. However, the tentacles are not part of the ghast's hitbox.

This Is How IQ Scores Work and Why That Online Test Your Friends Keep Sharing on Facebook Is Nonsense
So, hereâs a fun exercise: Take all of the IQ scores shared on Facebook by everyone you know and lay them out on a graph. Assign an IQ of 100 to the average (probably around 129-130 from what Iâve seen), and then for estimationâs sake, put 70 at your lowest scoring friend and 130 at the highest. Finally, evenly assign IQs to the rest based on where they fall between the lowest/highest and the average score.


This Is How IQ Scores Work and Why That Online Test Your Friends Keep Sharing on Facebook Is Nonsense
On most modern IQ tests, the scale is arranged so that 95% of the scores spread out across a range of 70 to 130, with 66% falling within 85-115. In simpler terms, when taking an IQ test, youâre not being ranked against the test based on percent of questions answered correctly like any regular school test.


This Is How IQ Scores Work and Why That Online Test Your Friends Keep Sharing on Facebook Is Nonsense
If the vast majority of IQ scores from a certain test come in around the 125-134 range, as they appear to on this and several other online tests Iâve seen over the years, the test is inherently broken and not really showing IQ scores at all.


Does IQ Test Really Measure Intelligence?
Reviewed by Laura J. Martin, MD. Dec. 20, 2012 -- Single tests that measure intelligence quotient, or IQ, may become a thing of the past. A new study of more than 100,000 participants suggests that there may be at least three distinct components of intelligence. So you could not give a single, unified score for all of them. Researchers' understanding of the complexities of the human brain has evolved, and so too has the notion of IQ, what it really means, and how it is most accurately captured. âThere are multiple types of intelligence,â says researcher Adam Hampshire, PhD.

1. Grey matter is made up of nerve cell bodies, and white matter is made up of fibers. 2. Unlike the white matter, the neurons of grey matter do not have extended axons. 3. Grey matter occupies 40 percent of the brain, while white matter fills 60 percent of the brain.


What Function Does White Matter Serve in the Brain?
Quick Answer. White matter connects the various gray matter centers of the brain together to form communication networks, according to the DANA Foundation. White matter is primarily made up of myelinated nerve cell projections called axons, which facilitate these networks and make up the bulk of the brain and spinal cord. Continue Reading.


Difference Between Grey and White Matter
It is found between the brainstem and the cerebellum. It is the white matter that allows communication to and from grey matter areas, and between grey matter and the other parts of the body. It functions by transmitting the information from the different parts of the body towards the cerebral cortex.


-
The central nervous system (CNS) is comprised of white and gray matter. In the spinal cord and cerebrum gray matter is surrounded by white matter. However, in the cerebellum and cerebral hemispheres this is reversed with the grey matter surrounding underlying white matter.


White matter
The other main component of the brain is grey matter (actually pinkish tan due to blood capillaries), which is composed of neurons. The substantia nigra is a third colored component found in the brain that appears darker due to higher levels of melanin in dopaminergic neurons than its nearby areas.


The Role of Grey Matter in Alzheimerâs Disease
Grey matter is the cortex of the brain, which is responsible for muscle control, memory, emotions, speech, decision-making, self-control and sensory perception. The âretrogenesisâ theory of brain change suggests that brain ability declines in reverse order to how it develops.


The Role of Grey Matter in Alzheimerâs Disease
A particular network within the grey matter links most of the higher order functions of the brain. This network develops later than the rest of the brain and is the first to show signs of degeneration with age.


-
Gray matter is a major component of the CNS, it refers to un-myelinated neurons and other cells of the central nervous system such as glial cells and dendrites. It is present in the brain, brainstem and cerebellum, and present throughout the spinal cord. Gray matter contains most of the brain's neuronal cell bodies.

How do enzymes increase the speed of chemical reactions?
Enzymes can increase the speed of chemical reactions in several ways. I will explain one in detail (the most common one) and just mention another that I can think of. Most often, they lower what is called the activation energy of a chemical transformation.


-
Enzymes speed up reactions by lowering the activation energy of the reaction concerned. The enzyme creates a lower energy pathway than if the enzyme wasn't there. For example, â¦ hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, decomposes when it gets warmer to H2O(l) and O2(g).


REACTIONS AND ENZYMES
Temperature: Increases in temperature will speed up the rate of nonenzyme mediated reactions, and so temperature increase speeds up enzyme mediated reactions, but only to a point. When heated too much, enzymes (since they are proteins dependent on their shape) become denatured. When the temperature drops, the enzyme regains its shape.


Biology for Kids
Enzymes are responsible for a lot of the work that is going on in cells. They act as catalysts in order to help produce and speed up chemical reactions. When a cell needs to get something done, it almost always uses an enzyme to speed things along. Enzymes are Specific. Enzymes are very specific.


What is the function of enzymes?
Carbonic anhydrase speeds up the transfer of carbon dioxide from cells to the blood. There are over 2000 known enzymes, each of which is involved with one specific chemical reaction. Enzymes are substrate specific.

Interesting Facts about Enzymes. 1  Enzymes don't get used up after they do their job. They can be used over and over. 2  Many drugs and poisons act as inhibitors to enzymes. Some snake venoms are inhibitors. 3  Enzymes are often used in industrial applications such as food processing, paper manufacturing, and detergents.
