It is due to strong triple bond between two nitrogen atoms (N ≡ N).

Due to weaker bond low-bond enthalpy, high negative electron gain enthalpy and highest electronegativity.

1. Metal excess defect due to the presence of extra cations at interstitial sites.

The importance of variation in organism introduced during reproduction is that it helps the species of various organisms to survive and flourish even in adverse environment. If all the organisms of a population living in that habitat are exactly identical, then there is a danger that all of them may die and no one would survive under those conditions. This will eliminate the species from the habitat completely. However, if some variations are present in some individual organism to tolerate excessive heat of cold, then there is a chance for them to survive and flourish even in adverse excessive heat or cold. Thus, variation is useful for the survival of a species over time.

The renewal of a forest by some means (e.g. natural or artificial) is known as regenerations. The regeneration has been defined in a number of ways by several workers.  

1) "The renewal of a forest crops by natural or artificial means; also the new crop so obtained".  

2) Regeneration as, "The renewal by self-sown seed or by vegetative means." It is of two types viz., Natural regeneration and Artificial regeneration.  

Methods of Regeneration:  

There are following methods of regeneration of forest: 

A) Natural Regeneration, 

B) Artificial regeneration and 

C) Natural regeneration supplemented by Planting.  

However, first, two methods are most important in the regeneration of forests.

Well the mushroom is the fruiting body of a fungus, it releases spores to perpetuate the existence of its species.   

The fungus is however a decomposer, for most of the time it is an interwoven tissue of branching threads feeding on the tissue of other plants or animals, living or dead.   

All the "mushroom" fungi are decomposers, they feed predominantly on dead plant tissue.

Nitrates are used in fertiliser, which help farmers to produce more crops which can mean lower food prices.

Phosphates are essential for the growth of plants and animals but human activities have altered its natural cycle. The main sources are drainage from farmland (fertilisers, runoff from manure, etc.) and sewage effluent (which contains dishwasher detergents, food and drink additives). It is also used in drinking water treatment to control lead levels.

Transpiration is the evaporation of water from aerial parts and of plants, especially leaves but also stems, flowers and fruits. Transpiration is a side effect of the plant need to open its stomata in order to obtain carbon dioxide gas from the air for photosynthesis. Transpiration also cools plants and enables mass flow of mineral nutrients from roots to shoots.

Intellectual development is the product of a complex interplay of hereditary factor (nature) and environmental conditions (nurture). Heredity sets the range and environment shapes the development.

Nature (Hereditary factors): The most convincing evidence comes from twin studies and adoption studies. influences intelligence.

Nurture (Environmental factors): Evidence for environmental influences on intelligence comes from the following observations: Adoption studies demonstrate that adopted children show some similarity in IQ to their adoptive parents.IQ declines over time in children raised in deprived environments. Conversely, IQ improves in children who leave deprived environments and enter enriched environments. Family background and socio-economic status; Nutrition; Schooling etc.

Fixation – Failure of a child to pass successfully through a stage leads to fixation to that stage.

Behavioural Therapy will be used to modify faulty learning. 

The techniques can be any one of the following: 

1. Negative reinforcement: refers to following an undesired response with an outcome that is painful or not liked 

2. Positive reinforcement: is given to increase the desired behavior. 

3. Token Economy: Persons with behavioural problems can be given a token as a reward every time a wanted behaviour occurs. The tokens are collected and exchanged for a reward such as an outing for the patient or a treat for the child. 

4. Differential Reinforcement: Unwanted behaviour can be reduced and wanted behaviour can be increased simultaneously.

It monitors and reduces physiological aspects of stress by providing feedback about current physiological activities and accompanied by relaxation training. 

It involves three stages: 

a. developing an awareness of the particular physiological response; 

b. learning ways of controlling that physiological response in quiet conditions. 

c. transferring that control into the conditions of everyday life.

Emotional intelligence was first introduced by Salovey and Mayer . They considered emotional intelligence as “the ability to monitor one’s own and other’s emotions, to discriminate among them, and to use the information to guide one’s thinking and actions”.
