what is mean by Red tide example

maaztauquir24 6th Feb, 2022

hi reader ,

Red tide is a phenomenon caused by algal blooms (Wikipedia definition) during which algae become so numerous that they discolor coastal waters (hence the name "red tide"). The algal bloom may also deplete oxygen in the waters and/or release toxins that may cause illness in humans and other animals.

Chemicals from farming, factories, sewage treatment plants and other sources can become dissolved in water on the land. This water, called runoff , eventually flows into the ocean and can cause algae to grow faster, leading to red tides.

examples of red tide include:

At least three species of dinoflagellates and one diatom species , golnuloaox

i hope this helps

which graduation is best for ias for pcm stream students

Nisha 6th Feb, 2022
hey there

Hope you are doing great

It's depend on your interest mainly.It is not like that for UPSC you require a particular course, a recognized Degree from a recognized college is sufficient. You can join any degree which you want to join engineering, medical, arts, commerce It doesnt matter, but that course should be degree.

If you want to continue with science stream you can go for B.sc or B.tech but as there are many subjects so you have to give so much of time in college study and activities

And If you choose arts or alike then you can get ample of time preparation and also somewhat similar subjects in curriculum as in UPSC syllabus.

Hope this helps you

i have karetoconus in my both eyes am i eligible for govt. jobs and ias/ips ???

Moumoyee Chakraborty 29th Jan, 2022

Dear Candidate though it is very hard to admit but if you have already dreamt of becoming an IPS/IAS officer then you have to pass both physical and mental health checkups. However if your keratoconus is under curable condition then you can opt for both the jobs unless your vision is blurred. But if the condition is too severe to degenerate the corneal tissues then you may not achieve the fitness certificate for selection.

Hope you get well and fulfill your dream

Good luck!!!

after 10th which steps do i take to reach my goal(IAS) please give me the answer

mrinalini048 26th Jan, 2022

Hey!

After your 10th grade, you can pick any of the arts or humanities, commerce, or science streams based on your interests for your 10 + 2 and ultimately graduation. This is because you do not have to be a graduate in a certain field to be eligible for UPSC examinations; all you need to be eligible is a graduate in any discipline, therefore you are free to complete 10+2 and graduation in any subject. To be eligible for the UPSC Civil Services exam, one must have a graduation degree in any discipline from a recognised university, as mandated by under the law.


IAS Educational qualification

Bachelor's degree (BA, B.Com, B.Sc, BBA, BCA, B.Tech etc.) with at least one of the subjects notely Animal Husbandry and  Veterinary Science, Botany, Chemistry, Geology, Mathematics, Physics, Statistics and Zoology or a Bachelor's degree in Agriculture, Forestry or in Engineering from recognised or acknowledged university or college.



What you can start doing from 10th onwards is reading daily newspapers for enhancement in your general knowledge and current affairs. Whatever stream you would choose after your 10th, you will have to focus on the subjects so as to strengthen your core knowledge of the subject.
