T+1 Settlement Cycle: Clearing Process in Indian Capital Markets

Hydrocarbons are major constituents of crude oil and petroleum. They can be biodegraded by naturally occurring microorganisms in freshwater and marine environments under a variety of aerobic and anaerobic conditions.
The Role of Microbes in Bioremediation
The ability of microorganisms—including bacteria, archaea, fungi, and algae—to break down hydrocarbons is the fundamental basis for both natural attenuation and enhanced bioremediation efforts.

The Derivative and Integral Definitions
The Derivative Definition
The derivative of a function $f(x)$, denoted $f'(x)$, is defined using the limit of the difference quotient:
$$f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) – f(x)}{h}$$
The Definite Integral (Riemann Sum)
The definite integral of $f(x)$ from $a$ to $b$ is defined as the limit of the Riemann sum:
$$\int_a^b f(x) dx = \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum_{i=1}^n f(x_i^*) \Delta x$$

Religion, Politics, and Power in 16th-17th Century England
Religion in sixteenth-century England was deeply connected to politics.

Tornadoes: Formation and Impact
Tornadoes are violent storms that strike as a powerful, rotating mixture of wind and thunderstorm clouds, extending from the clouds to the ground in a funnel shape. They are known to be the most powerful and destructive atmospheric wind systems. They are very common in the USA, particularly across the middle belt extending to the East Coast.
When and How Tornadoes Form
Tornadoes usually occur during the daytime, typically from mid-afternoon until early evening. Their

Kant’s Transcendental Philosophy: Aesthetic and Analytic
Transcendental Aesthetic: Sensory Knowledge
The Aesthetic is the part of Kant’s work devoted to analyzing the functioning of our sensory knowledge capacity. Furthermore, Kant calls transcendental the knowledge we possess of a priori intuitions and concepts, and how these are related, allowing experience to organize knowledge.
