General knowledge

The crescograph was invented by Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose in the early twentieth century to measure plant growth; he showed that plants respond to stimuli such as light and heat.

यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: crescograph का आविष्कार सर जगदीश चंद्र बोस ने बीसवीं सदी की शुरुआत में पौधों की वृद्धि मापने के लिए किया; उन्होंने दिखाया कि पौधे प्रकाश और गर्मी जैसे उद्दीपनों पर प्रतिक्रिया करते हैं।
