42.WHERE DOES WATER GO WHEN IT DRIES UP?

You look out on the street or road and you see water. An hour later in bright sunshine, it is gone! Or wet clothes are hung out on a line, and by the end of the day, they are dry. Where did the water go?

We say the water evaporates. But what does this mean? Evaporation is the process by which a liquid that is exposed to air gradually becomes a gas or vapor. Many liquids evaporate quite quickly, much more quickly than water. This is true of alcohol, gasoline, and ammonia. Some liquids, such as mercury, evaporate very slowly.

10. WHERE DID PLANTS COME FROM?

Was there a time when there were no plants on earth? According to the theories of science, the answer is yes. Then, hundreds of millions of years ago, tiny specks of protoplasm appeared on earth. Protoplasm is the name for the living material that is found in both plants and animals. These original specks of Protoplasm, according to the scientists, were the beginnings of all our plants and animals.
