Atoll : It is a coral reef of the shape of a horse-shoe or ring with a lagoon in the centre.
Biosphere : The organic life on earth both animate and inanimate including plants, vegetables, animals, birds and men.
Bore : A tidal wave which breaks in the estuaries of some rivers and being impelled by the narrowing channel rises in the form of tide, and courses along with great force and noise.
Chromosphere : A shell of hot gas about 1600-4800 km thick encircling the visible surface of the sun.
Comet : A body of gas and dust traveling in an elongated orbit around the sun.
Cape : The point of termination or a neck of land extending into the sea.
