Question
Identify and explain concepts given in this diagram.
✓
Answer
The concept upon which the diagrams are based is the persistence of vision.
Explanation:
1. Persistence of vision is a phenomenon that allows the image formed on the retina to remain imprinted there for $\frac{1}{16}$ th of a second after the object is removed from the front of the eyes.
2. When cardboard with a cage drawn on one side and a monkey drawn on the other is tied to a thread and twisted and set into rotation, at one point, the observer gets the illusion of the monkey being inside the cage.
3. This happens due to persistence of vision. Before the image of the cage could disappear from the retina, an image of the monkey gets created on the retina giving the observer the impression that the monkey is inside the cage.

If the teeth are not cleaned regularly, they become covered with a sticky yellowish layer W of food particles and bacteria. Since layer W covers the teeth, the alkaline liquid X secreted by glands Y inside the mouth cannot reach the teeth surface to neutralise the acid formed by the action of organisms Z on sugary food, and hence tooth decay sets in.
- What is W known as?
- What is (i) X, and (ii) Y?
- What are organisms Z?
- State one way of removing layer W from the teeth.
