Conduction is a mode of heat transfer and is not associated with wave phenomena.

Refraction is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another due to a change in its speed.

The blue color of the sky is primarily due to Rayleigh scattering, which scatters shorter wavelengths of light more than longer wavelengths.

Pteridophytes, like ferns, exhibit an alternation of generations with both gametophyte and sporophyte stages.

All of the mentioned groups (Angiosperms, Gymnosperms, and Pteridophytes) exhibit alternation of generations in their life cycles.

Natural rubber is a polymer made from the latex of rubber trees and is widely used in the production of rubber products.

Sustainable tourism can help conserve biodiversity by promoting responsible travel that does not harm ecosystems.

Sustainable agriculture practices help in conserving biodiversity by maintaining healthy ecosystems.

Crop rotation helps maintain soil health and reduces soil erosion by preventing nutrient depletion.

Speciation can occur through various processes, including geographic, behavioral, and temporal isolation, leading to the formation of new species.

The melting of ice increases the entropy of the system as it transitions from a solid to a liquid state, which has more disorder.

Melting involves a change of state (solid to liquid) without a change in temperature.

Translation is the process where mRNA is decoded to produce a protein.

Beta decay involves the emission of a positron, which is the antimatter counterpart of an electron.

Translation is the process that involves the synthesis of proteins from mRNA.

Transformation is the process by which bacteria take up foreign DNA from their environment.

Convection is the process that involves the transfer of heat through a fluid (liquid or gas) due to the movement of the fluid itself.

Convection involves the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids.

Auxins are responsible for phototropism, the growth of plants towards light.

Auxins influence various processes including phototropism, gravitropism, and apical dominance.

Photosynthesis is not directly influenced by auxins; they mainly affect growth and development processes.

Fruit ripening is primarily influenced by ethylene, not auxins.

Photosynthesis is a biochemical process that is not directly influenced by plant hormones.

Auxins are primarily responsible for phototropism, the growth of plants towards light.

Glycolysis is the first step in aerobic respiration, where glucose is broken down to produce energy.

During expiration, the diaphragm relaxes and the intercostal muscles also relax, leading to a decrease in thoracic volume and expulsion of air from the lungs.

Photolysis of water occurs during the light-dependent reactions, producing oxygen and electrons.

The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis occur in the thylakoid membranes.
