617. What is the difference between Mbps and MBps?
The Difference between a Megabyte (MB) and a Megabit (Mb).
One thing that often gives people confusion is the difference between a Megabyte (used for file size) and a Megabit (used for download speeds). People often assume that a download speed of 1 Megabit per second (1 Mbps) will allow them to download a 1 Megabyte file in one second. This is not the case, a Megabit is 1/8 as big as a Megabyte, meaning that to download a 1 MB file in 1 second you would need a connection of 8 Mbps. The difference between a Gigabyte (GB) and a Gigabit (Gb) is the same, with a Gigabyte being 8 times larger than a Gigabit.
Mbps means megabits per second. Mb is used for download and upload speed.
MBps stands for megabytes per second. MB is used for file size.
You’ll spot these terms when you download a file from the Internet or transfer data from one device to another. They show the data transfer rate. Your connection speed (download and upload) will display as megabits per second. But, you’re downloading or transferring megabytes.

On July 23, 1958, NAUTILUS departed Pearl Harbor, Hawaii under top secret orders to conduct "Operation Sunshine", the first crossing of the North Pole by a ship.

615. What is difference between Yoghurt and Curd?
Yogurt and curd are two different types of dairy products. These two are two different forms of milk that are created by fermenting milk in some way. Yogurt and curd play an important part in cooking and diet in many different cultures around the world. These are completely different from each other in almost every aspect.
Yogurt is a diary product that is created by fermenting milk using bacteria. The bacteria that is used to ferment milk is known as ‘yogurt cultures’. The bacteria ferment the lactose in the milk causing it to produce lactic acid, which gives yogurt its tangy and acidic taste.
Curds are another type of dairy product. Curds are made by curdling or coagulating the milk. This can be done by mixing edible acidic substances in to the milk, such as lemon juice or vinegar. Introducing these substance to the milk, will allow the milk to curdle and separate into two parts. The liquid part is the whey and the milk solids will be the curds. The whey contains the whey proteins of the milk, whereas the curds are the milk proteins or casein. Sometimes old milk might sour and separate without the added acidic substances.

613. What is Micturition syncope?
Micturition syncope or post-micturition syncope is the name given to the human phenomenon of fainting shortly after or during urination. The underlying cause is not fully understood but it may be a result of vasovagal response, postural hypotension, or a combination thereof.

612. Why are the tyres of the car black?
Actually Carbon Black is not added as a coloring agent,it is a filler. Vulcanized rubber does not have very good wear resistance and hence a tire made of pure vulcanized rubber would wear out soon.
Carbon Black also increases the damping properties of rubber, thus transferring less shock loads to the automobile.
In addition to this Carbon Black is a good conductor of heat and would help conduct heat away from the surface with contact to the road and help maintain a healthy tire temperature.
An added bonus is that addition of carbon black increases the coefficient of friction with the road surface thus making it safer to drive.

610. How many watts are equal to 1 unit in an electricity bill?
The electricity bills are nothing but energy consumption bills and not power consumption bills.
Energy=Power * time
When we say we have consumed 1 unit of electricity, that means we have consumed 1kWhr of electrical energy.
1 Unit= kilo watt hour.
So, for example if you use 10 watt of lamp for 100 hours, the electricity consumed will be 1000 watt hour. That is 1kWhr, nothing but 1 Unit of Electrical Energy.

608. How do Antibiotics work?
Antibiotics work by affecting things that bacterial cells have but human cells don't. For example, human cells do not have cell walls, while many types of bacteria do. The antibiotic penicillin works by keeping a bacterium from building a cell wall.
Antibiotics either stop bacteria from reproducing or destroy them. Before bacteria can multiply and cause symptoms, the body'simmune system can usually kill them. Our white blood cells attack harmful bacteria and, even if symptoms do occur, our immune system can usually cope and fight off the infection. Antibodies don't work on viruses, Viruses insert their genetic material into a human cell's DNA in order to reproduce. Antibiotics cannot kill viruses because bacteria and viruses have different mechanisms and machinery to survive and replicate. The antibiotic has no “target” to attack in a virus.
