Most Route Changing River in India - Kosi or Dormant Kosi River

Kosi or Dormant Kosi River

  • The Kosi river or the dormant Kosi river is the Most Route Changing River in India
  • Kosi river flows through three countries namely Tibet, Nepal and India. It is an antecedent river.

Topographies Formed By Underground Water
  • Its origin is in the neighboring country of Nepal, where the main river Kosi is formed by the meeting of seven river streams. The main stream of these seven river streams is the Arun river, which originates from the 'Gosaithan peak' of Tibet in the north of the Himalayas.
  • The Kosi river joins the Ganges river from the left side near a place called Kadhagola (Kursela) in the state of Bihar (India). It flows through the cities of Supaul, Purnia and Katihar in the state of Bihar in India and joins the Ganga near Kursela.
  • The total length of Kosi river is 720 km or 447 miles.
  • According to studies done by many scholars and naturalists, the Kosi river has a tendency to move west and in the last 200 years, it has moved approximately 133 km or 83 miles west from its original source. The biggest thing is that slips are accidental.
  • In the rainy season, it brings with it a large amount of silt and sometimes it brings with it a large amount of water and breaks the embankments and returns to the old river course, due to which a large plain area is in the grip of flood. comes In this way there is a danger of a terrible disaster.
  • Because of the change in its course, 'Kosi River' is also called the Sorrow of Bihar.

Fault – Endogenous Force

Fault – Endogenous Force The relief of our earth is full of variations and contrasts. Due to fault-endogenous force on the upper surface of the earth, some fault valley, ramp valley have been formed. Somewhere there are deep trenches, and somewhere there is sea. In some places there are snow-filled glaciers and mountain ranges, where there is no trace of vegetation, then there are also marshy places, which are full of oddities and mysteries. Have we ever thought, what is the reason for all these differences? The answer is –  Internal Structure Of The Earth  Mainly two types of forces work on the earth, which are as follows – Endogenous forces – By these, disparities are created on the earth. Like – Earthquake, Tsunami, Long term force etc. Exogenous Forces – These are the plane stabilizing forces of the earth. Like – flowing water, sea water, glacier, wind etc. Genetic Terminology - Genetics 1. Endogenous Force As we said above, inequalities are created on the earth by endoge...

Different Branches and Sub-Branches of Science and Their Fields of Study

Science Science is a very wide field. There are various branches and sub-branches of science. It is mainly divided into two parts Natural Science and Social Science. Natural Science is again divided into two parts Physical Science and Biological Science, which are further divided into various branches and sub-branches. While various subjects of Arts Group have been kept under Social Science. Indian Classical Dance Form Different Branches of Science and Their Fields of Study  Animal Science or Zoology - Zoology: Detailed study of different types of living and dead animals Botany - Study of different types of plants and their activities. Paleontology -  Palaeobiology or Palaeontology: Study of different types of fossils (animals or plants). Paleobotany – Palaeobotany: Study of plant fossils. Palynology - Palynology: Study of different types of pollen grains. Genetics - Genetics: Study of genetic characteristics of organisms and their heredity. Ecology: Study of the environme...

Bt Toxin

Bt Crop Containing Bt Toxin Gene Bt refers to Bacillus thuringiensis i.e. Bt crop contains the amount of toxin obtained from the above bacterium or rather Bt toxin is formed in these crops which is active only when the crop is eaten by insects. In this way, after eating the crop, this toxin becomes active by going into the intestine of the insect and the insect dies. Pongal : A South Indian Festival Now the question arises that how did this poison reach inside the plants. Bt bacteria store many toxin proteins inside their spores and this toxin protein is made by the Bt toxin gene present inside the bacterium, that is, this toxin is produced by the Bt toxin gene. By biotechnology, this toxin gene is isolated from the bacterium and put in the gene of crop plants, due to which this toxin starts forming inside the crop plants as well. Exogenous Forces - Weathering and Erosion When Bt toxin is in the cell of bacteria or crop plants, then it is in dormant state and at this time it is called...
