Nuclear Weapons And Their Hazards
Words: 821 - Pages: 3.... decreases might occur in
low latitudes but more importantly in these regions rainfall would probably
decreases because monsoons could not develop. Like in On The Beach, all
the radiation move towards Australia and everyone innocent people died.
A large-scale nuclear war would lessen food production over large
expanses in the Northern Hemisphere, this could occur through acute
climatic conditions which chilling or freezing temperatures occurring for
brief periods during the growing season which could destroy crops or lower
production. As result of the variety of potential physical and societal
disruptions to agriculture from a lar .....

Born Too Early
Words: 739 - Pages: 3.... the doctors and nurses have to assess the baby’s heart, lungs, color and temperature. If the baby is having trouble with any of these things then it is taken into what is called the neonatal intensive care unit. In some of the smaller hospitals they aren’t equipped with the technology that is needed to keep the baby alive and the baby has to be transported to a bigger hospital, usually to a hospital in a metropolitan city in order to get the proper care. After the baby has been assessed for problems then it is watched closely for the next 48 hours. This is the most critical time for a baby . During this time the doctors can determine .....

Environmental Satire
Words: 658 - Pages: 3.... discoveries and creations we have made, but more that we recognize all we do as humans to ensure our plentiful and gluttonous lifestyles.
Lets face it. We as humans waste countless hours of our lives worrying about the future. Whether it’s asteroids or Y2K, it’s always something. It is said that in the future, with global warming, temperatures outdoors will be too hot to survive in. But what is the future? Is the future tomorrow, maybe next month, or next century? The fact is by the time all of the problems that we worry about surface, we will have been dead for hundreds of years. We’ll be safe somewhere in the .....

What Are The Major Components Of Biological Membranes And How Do They Contribute To Membrane Function?.
Words: 2565 - Pages: 10.... many of an eukaryotes organelles. The membrane is essential to the
survival of a cell due to its diverse range of functions. There are general
functions common to all membranes such as control of permeability, and then
there are specialised functions that depend upon the cell type, such as
conveyance of an action potential in neurones. However, despite the diversity of
function, the structure of membranes is remarkably similar.
All membranes are composed of lipid, protein and carbohydrate, but it is
the ratio of these components that varies. For example the protein component may
be as high as 80% in Erythrocytes, and .....

Mercury
Words: 447 - Pages: 2.... think that collisions with protoplanets early in the
history of the solar system may have stripped away lighter materials, making
Mercury a very dense planet with an iron core extending outwards 4/5 of the way
to the surface.
Mercury bares a very similar resemblance to our moon because it has a
lot of craters. The craters, which cover seventy-five percent of Mercury’s
surface, were formed by huge rocks that smashed into the planet’s surface. The
largest crater is called the Caloris Basin and it is 1400 km in diameter and is
flooded with molten lava. Mercury also has many cliffs that are usually over
300 miles long and two mile .....

Photosynthesis
Words: 377 - Pages: 2.... need oxygen to survive would not live very long. The second reason is that autotrophs are the lowest food on the food chart. Without them many heterotrops would die from starvation.
3. Why did you put your syringes containing leaf material in the dark prior to illumination?
The reason this was done was to make sure as little oxygen as possible was contained in the leaf material. This coused the experimrnt to run properly. If the leaf material was not placed in the dark, the dark reaction would not have occured using up all the oxygen. If there was still oxygen in the leaf material, the data collected would have been off. The reason for .....

The six most common components of the atmosphere are Carbon Dioxide at 95.32%; Nitrogen at 2.7%; Argon at 1.6%; Oxygen at 0.13%; Water at 0.03%; and Neon at 0.00025 %. Martian air contains only about 1/1,000 as much water as our air, but even this small amount can condense out, forming clouds that rise high in the atmosphere or swirl around the slopes of towering volcanoes. Local patches of early morning fog can form in valleys. At the Viking Lander 2 site, a thin layer of water frost covered the ground each winter. There is evidence that in the past a denser Martian atmosphere may have allowed water to flow on .....

B E C: The New Phase Of Matter
Words: 383 - Pages: 2.... where the atom's velocities peak at close to zero velocity, and
the atoms slowly emerge from the condensate. The atoms were slowed to the low
velocity by using laser beams. The hardware needed to create the BEC is a
bargain at $50,000 to $1000,000 which makes it accessible to physics labs around
the world.
The next step is to test the new phase of matter. We do not know yet if
it absorbs, reflects,or refracts light. BEC is related to superconductivity and
may unlock some mysteries of why some minerals are able to conduct electricity
without resistance. The asymmetrical pattern of BEC is is thought by some
astrophysicists to explain th .....

Effects Of Smoking
Words: 385 - Pages: 2.... It is that little addicted voice inside their minds rationalizing the addiction, because they know, it might hurt to quit. They know that there will be a sense of loss. They know that smoking is as much a part of their personality as being a happy person, or being a morning person, or liking to go to the movies. Smoking becomes a part of who and what you are, An addict. It amazes me the number of people who smoke cigarettes who would never smoke a "marijuana" cigarette. They say "Oh no, that’s drugs" or "I’m not a dope fiend". Sorry pal tobacco is a drug and if you're a smoker, you are also a drug addict. The sooner you accept .....
