A triangle ABC lies in the co-ordinate plane. The co-ordinates of its vertices are A \left( 2,3 \right), B \left( 4,-4 \right)and C \left( 6,-7 \right). This triangle is reflected in the line y =0on to ΔA’B’C’. ΔA’B’C’ in then reflected in the origin onto ΔA”B”C”. Mention down the co-ordinates of ΔA’B’C’ and ΔA”B”C”.

In the question it is mentioned that, The co–ordinates of its vertices are A $\left( 2,3 \right)$, B $\left( 4,-4 \right)$ and C $\left( 6,-7 \right)$ Then, co-ordinates of ΔA’B’C’ under...

The apparatus shown in the following diagram is Garreau’s potometer designed to demonstrate unequal transpiration from the two surfaces of a dorsiventral leaf. Before keeping the leaf in between the cups, anhydrous calcium chloride (CaCl2) contained in two small vials were weighed and placed in both the cups. The ends of the cups were closed with corks through which two mercury manometers were connected. After few hours, CaClvials were taken out and weighed again.

1. What is the purpose of keeping CaCl2 vials inside the cup? 2. After few hours CaCl2 vials were taken out and weighed again. Will you expect any difference in weight? If so, give reason....
