• Based on historical seismic activity, the Bureau of Indian Standards has categorized regions in India into four seismic zones: zones II, III, IV and V.
• Of these, the most seismically active area is Zone V and the least active is Zone II. 
• There is a history of devastating earthquakes on the Indian subcontinent.
• The key cause for the high frequency and severity of earthquakes is that the Indian plate is driving into Asia at a rate of roughly 47 mm/year.
• India's geological figures indicate that about 54 percent of the land is prone to earthquakes.
• Research by the World Bank and the United Nations predicts that by 2050, about 200 million urban dwellers in India will be vulnerable to storms and earthquakes.
• The most recent edition of India's seismic zoning map given in India's earthquake-resistant design code [IS 1893 (Part 1) 2002] assigns four degrees of seismicity in terms of zone factors for India.
• In other words, unlike its previous edition, which consisted of five or six zones for the region, India's earthquake zoning map divides India into four seismic zones (Zone 2, 3, 4, and 5).
• According to the new zoning map, the maximum degree of seismicity is predicted in Zone 5, while the lowest level of seismicity is correlated with Zone 2.

The process of adjustment is dynamic. The adjustment, in psychology, is the behavioral process by which humans and other animals maintain an equilibrium among their various needs or between their needs and the obstacles of their environments. A sequence of adjustment begins when a need is felt and ends when it is satisfied. Hungry people, for example, are stimulated by their physiological state to seek food. When they eat, they reduce the stimulating condition that impelled them to activity, and they are thereby adjusted to this particular need.

Biology is to nature as experience is to nurture. The biological approach believes behavior to be as a consequence of our genetics and physiology. Theories within the biological approach support nature over nurture. However, it is limiting to describe behavior solely in terms of either nature or nurture, and attempts to do this underestimate the complexity of human behaviour.

Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin.

Vitamin C is active in the body either as L-ascorbic acid or as dehydroascorbic acid. Its best-known function is as a cofactor for the enzyme required to hydroxylate prolyl and lysyl residues for the synthesis of connective tissue proteins.

Stroke volume is increased due to increased contractility.

Resistivity of semiconductors decreases with a increase of temperature.

​Variation of resistance with temperature:

• Semiconductors like Silicon and Germanium contains lesser charges than those of metals but has more charges than insulators. These charge carriers are generated by the thermal breaking of bonds.
• Thus, as the temperature rises, more covalent bonds break, releasing more electrons and the number of electrons and holes will increase which lowers the resistivity rapidly.

Rorschach inkblot test is used to measured personality.

Rorschach inkblot Test: Hermann Rorschach, a Swiss psychiatrist, devised the Rorschach Inkblot Personality test in 1921. The test consists of a standard set of 10 cards with inkblots printed on them.
