Carbon Dioxide Poisoning
Number of words: 1104 - Number of pages: 5

.... burned by, for example, a furnace or water heater (Marable 97). Unlike a fire where you can immediately see smoke and flames, carbon monoxide poisoning gives no physical evidence of its presence. But, when taught to see and look for the warning signs of carbon monoxide, deaths in the home due to carbon monoxide poisoning can be prevented. Sometimes, in a home the hot water supply is low, or the furnace fails to keep the house warm. A natural reaction in any of these situations would be to turn up the tempeture on both appliances. But, did you know .....


The Human Eye In Space
Number of words: 907 - Number of pages: 4

.... still be perceived as two lines. "During the day, the earth has a predominantly bluish cast..... I could detect individual houses and streets in the low humidity and cloudless areas such as the Himalaya mountain area.... I saw a steam locomotive by seeing the smoke first..... I also saw the wake of a boat on a large river in the Burma-India area... and a bright orange light from the British oil refinery to the south of the city (Perth,Australia.)" The above observation was made by Gordon Cooper in Faith 7 [1963] and which generated much skepticism in the .....


Essay On Evolution
Number of words: 913 - Number of pages: 4

.... Genetic drift usually occurs in small populations that contain less than 100 individuals, but in large populations drift may have no significant effect on the population. Another mechanism is gene flow which is when a population may gain or lose alleles by the migration of fertile individuals between populations. This may cause the allele frequencies in a gene pool to change and allow the organism to evolve. The most obvious mechanism would have to be mutation that arises in the gene pool of a population or individual. It is also the original source of the gen .....


The Periodic Table
Number of words: 340 - Number of pages: 2

.... weights. provides an easy way to show the division of the elements into acid-forming and base-forming types. Those on the left are base-forming; those on the right are acid-forming. Those in between can be either. They have so-called amphoteric oxides and hydroxides that can act like acids or bases. 's arrangement also divides the elements into metallic and nonmetallic kinds. A distinction is usually made between most pure metals and nonmetals according to physical and chemical properties. Another virtue of is that it is universal. No matter where it is u .....


The Noble Gases
Number of words: 447 - Number of pages: 2

.... that is lighter than air. The element is found most common in the atmosphere of the earth. It is also found in the earth’s crust. Sir Walter Ramsey and Morris W. Travers discovered it in 1898. Its uses include electric signs, lamps, and lasers. Argon is the most abundant and most used noble on earth. Sir Walter Ramsey discovered it by Lord Rayleigh and in 1894. Argon makes up about 1.2 % of the earths atmosphere. It is found naturally in rock and in the air. It is used for electric light bulbs and fluorescent tubes. It is also used a lot in industry. Kry .....


Lasers
Number of words: 1733 - Number of pages: 7

.... Javan then created the first gas laser later in 1960. Three separate teams of American scientists operated the first semiconductor laser in 1962. Then in 1966, the American physicist Peter Sorokin built the first dye laser. To begin with, I will explain the definition of a laser: It is a device that produces a very narrow powerful beam of light. A laser light is a narrow beam of light, in which all the waves are traveling exactly at the same length and moving together as one. A laser light is made up of only one wavelength and it is a single pure color, while a n .....


Genetic Engeneering
Number of words: 815 - Number of pages: 3

.... one species to another, this includes animals with plants and vice a versa. As a result it is possible to make foods with high resistance to whether, temperature, pesticides, etc. therefore crop quality and amount grown would increase. Another area of genetic technology involves inserting genes into plants to make them immune to common viruses, this could increase the crop production. If the crop production could be increased, food would become cheaper and easier to obtain. For economical reasons gene technology is better for the producers and consumers. The p .....


Sickle Cell Anemia
Number of words: 2576 - Number of pages: 10

.... report on . As the report accumulated, a patter emerged. In 1926, Dr. Thomas P. Cooley and Dr. P. Lee described two forms of sickle cell disease: and sickle cell trait. During 1945, Dr. Linus Pauling discovered that an abnormal form of hemoglobin was the reason for the sickness in sickle cell patients. These two took a train together and started talking about . Castle told Pauling about how the cells in sickle cell patients sickled when their oxygen level is low. Paling was amazed by this conversation and did further research on the disease. After that .....
