Symmetry, NCERT NOTES, Class 6

 

Symmetry
Introduction to Symmetry

When figures have equally balanced proportions, they are said to be symmetrical.

Bilateral symmetry
If a figure is divided into two halves by only one line and these halves overlap each other completely, then the figure is said to have bilateral symmetry.
Example: A butterfly shows bilateral symmetry.

Line symmetry
A figure has line symmetry if a line can be drawn dividing the figure into two symmetrical parts. The line is called a line of symmetry.
Example: The dotted lines in the following figures show line symmetry.

 
Lines of symmetry
A figure can have any number of lines of symmetry passing through it. Some can have one, two or even multiple lines of symmetry. 
Example of single line of symmetry: A door lock.

Example of two lines of symmetry: A rectangle.

Example of multiple lines of symmetry (two or more): An equilateral triangle.
Reflection symmetry
Reflection symmetry is very similar to line symmetry except for the change in orientation.

For example, when you view yourself in the mirror, your right hand becomes the left hand in the mirror.

 
Point symmetry
Point symmetry exists when a figure is drawn around a single central point.
It is for figures having a point through which a symmetry can be established. This point is called centre of symmetry.
For example, hour glass shows point symmetry.

Kaleidoscope

A kaleidoscope uses mirrors to produce images that have several lines of symmetry.

Usually, two mirror strips forming a V-shape are used.
The angle between the mirrors determines number of lines of symmetry.
The figure below shows pattern formed by a kaleidoscope.

Introduction to plants

  Introduction to plants Plants are all around us. They help sustain life on earth by creating food and giving out oxygen that we breathe in. Plants Plants are the immovable living organisms all around us. They are the primary food providers. They are mostly green in colour and use sun as the source of energy to make food. Herbs, shrubs and trees Herbs are the smallest plants and do not have woody stem. Shrubs are slightly larger than herbs. Trees are the largest plants and can have large and thick woody stem. Creepers and climbers Creepers and Climbers are types of plants that need support to grow. Algae and mosses Algae and mosses are the most primitive or simple plants. Algae are found mostly floating on water and mosses are seen on surfaces, rocks or bark of trees in humid conditions.

Decoding India’s First-of-its-Kind DNA Vaccine

  Decoding India’s First-of-its-Kind DNA Vaccine Since the outbreak of COVID-19, we have witnessed two waves of this pandemic that have caused havoc. While our brave frontline workers continue to endlessly help people infected with the virus, our scientists and medical professionals are looking for the best possible ways to prevent this virus from causing further harm. These experts studied different vaccines and tried and tested them in labs before moving forward with clinical trials in humans. Initially, it seemed like a distant dream, but now they are not only being able to produce mass vaccines in a brief period but also developing different types and versions. And one such latest variant is the   ZyCoV-D , the world’s first DNA vaccine produced by India. Structure of SARS CoV- 2 or Covid- 19 Viruses come in different shapes and size essentially they are packages of DNA or RNA inside a protein cell. Talking about the SARS CoV-2, the outermost layer is the viral envelope...

Components of Food, NCERT NOTES, Class 6

  Components of Food What Do Different Food Items Contain? Food Food is the basic requirement for all living organisms. It provides energy for carrying out the normal physiological activities. Components of Food Different components have different nutrients. They all come together to provide wholesome nourishment to us. E.g. Rotis and rice contain predominantly carbohydrates. Dal, eggs, meat etc contain proteins. Oil, ghee contain fat. Sources of Carbohydrates, Proteins, Vitamins & Minerals and Fats  (Clockwise, from the left upper corner) What Do Various Nutrients Do for Our Body? Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are present mostly as starch. They provide us energy and are thus energy giving food. Wheat, Potato, Rice etc. are good sources of carbohydrates. Carbohydrates present in any food item are tested by Iodine test. Few drops of dilute iodine solution are added to the sample food item. If the colour changes from brown to blue-black, the prese...
