.... concluding the life of the universe. You would think of this as the end, but only an explosion is needed to wake up and give life to a new universe. Therefore, trapped forever in the cycle of rebirth. As humans we also travel through a cycle of rebirth according to the Hindu religion. We are all trapped on the Wheel of Samsara trying to break free. It is only possible to escape through the laws of Karma. Karma is simply how you act in this life determines what you are after your rebirth. For example, if you live each life being the best Hindu you possible can eventually your soul or Atman will be released and reach liberation. I .....

.... subdivided into hierarchies based on the molecule, the cell, the organism, and the population. Some of the more specific types of biology are as follows: Molecular biology, which has made the most fundamental contributions to modern biology; Cellular biology, which is closely linked with molecular biology. Cellular biology deals with the functions of the cell and the basic strucural unit of living matter; Finally, population biology became firmly established as a major sub division of biological studies in the 1970’s. This field relates with the study of gene changes in populations, and ecology. Biology also includes the study of h .....

.... caps the ends of bones, and which is normally four times more slippery than Teflon, loses that slipperiness and becomes perforated by ulcers. Many of the changes that occur in the joints of people with rheumatoid arthritis and osteo-arthritis are assumed to be caused by a disease process, when in fact they are often a consequence of relative immobility. These findings underscore the enormous importance of exercise in the fight against arthritis. You should realize that immobility will set off the destructive set of events. After four or five months, such degeneration may be quite well along, so that even if you initiate a program of vigor .....

.... for its own food, so no special feedings would be necessary. Feedings would also be needed on a less frequent basis since the Woolly Mammoth, much like today's camels, keeps under its sloping back a thick layer of blubber as nutrition when food was not needed. The problem in keeping a creature such as the Woolly Mammoth in a zoo- like surrounding would be poachers. Due to the endangerment of such a magnificent species, poachers of pelts and ivory would most certainly be after it's huge tusks and thick furs, so it would be necessary to post guards around it's cage at all times. A large-scale habitat would be constructed for this c .....

.... that the health threat caused by global warming is due to an unusual interaction between cosmic rays and clouds as well as other natural occurring events. The National Weather Service announced that 1998 was the warmest year (on record on average, around the world). A recent tree-ring study indicated that this is the warmest decade in six hundred years (Allen & Herreid, 82). Undeniably, the weather is getting warmer. According to an article in The Economist, a conservative newsmagazine, "The sea is warming, the plankton dying; floods are sweeping the land. In California, the climate is acting in a peculiar way. So, too, in Antarcti .....

.... state. This cycle allows the fluorophore to reliably emit a high yield of light with no outside influence other than the incoming photon. So GFP is basically a stable little (27-30 kD) green light bulb that can be tacked on to other proteins at either the N- or C-terminus without a distortion of its compact beta-can structure. Biochemists now frequently exploit GFP’s unique structural and physical characteristics to visualize various cellular activities. One such application of GFP is to understand the role of a hormone, T3, in the translocation of thyroid hormone nuclear receptors (TRs).* In this project, GFP was fused to the human .....

.... crucial to develop a better understanding of the whole process of water and how it is made accessible to us every day of our lives. According to the Water Quality Association, approximately “15percent of the Canadian population relies on individually owned and operated sources of drinking water, such as wells, cisterns and springs. On the other hand about 80percent of the population receives water from a community system”(1). Household pumps and community water systems a generally used by the majority of consumers. Household pumps are designed to pump ground water for household use, while a community system may use surface w .....

.... propounded this idea, that the cell is a basic structure and functional unit for all living organisms. A cell can be a wide range of shapes and sizes, although most cells are microscopic. Inside a cell membrane, a nucleus can be seen. The nucleus is the control center of the cell. Between the nucleus and the membrane, there is a polysaccharide matrix called the cytoplasm, where organelles can be found. The organelles are attached to a framework. The cell’s cytoskeleton. Every living cell has the ability to detect signals from it’s environment. The signals are usually in the form of chemical molecules, that the cell has lear .....

.... to the lung, then spreads throughout the chest (MSKCC, “”). Small cell spreads quickly (World Book, “”). In the United States 85 to 90 percent of all cases are related to smoking. Cigarette smoking is the main cause of (Scientific American, “”). Second-hand smoke, inhaled by non-smokers, increases a person’s chance of acquiring (Beau Halton). Men who smoke increase their chance of dying from about 23 times and women increase their chances 13 times (“ Awareness Campaign,” 3/23/99). However, may also be caused by long term exposure to radon, a naturally present radioactive .....

.... hole. All black holes are formed from the gravitational collapse of a star, usually having a great, massive, core. A star is created when huge, gigantic, gas clouds bind together due to attractive forces and form a hot core, combined from all the energy of the two gas clouds. This energy produced is so great when it first collides, that a nuclear reaction occurs and the gases within the star start to burn continuously. The Hydrogen gas is usually the first type of gas consumed in a star and then other gas elements such as Carbon, Oxygen, and Helium are consumed. This chain reaction fuels the star for millions or billions of year .....
