Digestive Disorders (liver)
Number of words: 395 - Number of pages: 2.... the disease as well. This is not true for all
cases though. Most cases in which both occur are in places of
high temperatures and poor sanitation. Africa, Latin America,
Southeast Asia, and India have many health problems
associated with the disease. The most common way to get this
disease is from one person to another. The other most common
way is through unhealthy food and badly sanitized water. Not
eating properly and excessive drinking will only worsen the
disease.
There are many ways that you can help prevent getting this
disease. If you .....

Nucular War
Number of words: 1384 - Number of pages: 6.... Army engineer, Major General Lesle Groves.
After the war, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission became in charge of all nuclear matters, including weapons research. Other types of bombs were developed to tap the energy of light elements, such as hydrogen. In these bombs the source of energy is the fusion process, in which nuclei of the isotopes of hydrogen combine to form a heavier helium nucleus. This weapons research has resulted in the production of bombs that range in power from a fraction of a kiloton to many megatons. The size of the bomb has been made smal .....

Human Cloning
Number of words: 910 - Number of pages: 4.... so embryonic development can continue. Now you have exact copies of the same genetic makeup in two to eight separate petri dishes. Even though this process sounds simple enough it has never fully worked because of abnormalities that occur like if the embryo is developed by two sperm cells the chromosome count is wrong. Another is as the cells duplicate they usually do not make it passed the 32-cell stage or 64 because of abnormalities in the environment or just because the process is not natural. The real reason why it does not work yet is not clearly known at t .....

Alzeimer
Number of words: 682 - Number of pages: 3.... for AD, it exist a number of treat-
Ment. If you suspect a patient of AD, ask him an attention question, like, “why people who lives in glasses houses shouldnt throw rocks.”
If he fails to answer, he might have Alzheimer disease and should be refered to a treatment.. There is 3 stages in AD. Mild: the patient might have trouble finding his words r forget familiar names. Moderate: he will be desoriented, paranoid and/or desoriented. He will also become urine-incontinent. And finally late: he will be innable to speak intelligibly, swallowing problems, and have so .....

Cells
Number of words: 333 - Number of pages: 2.... of the cell’s nutrient absorption and waste expulsion processes. Since the cell membrane of an eukaryotic cell is its only source of nutrition, its surface area must be large enough to allow the cell’s organelles to receive the material it needs or it will die. The eukaryotic cell does this by maximizing the surface area to volume ratio. By using the surface area and volume equations for a sphere you can estimate the surface area of a small cell. By modeling the growth rate of the surface area and volume of a sphere on a linear graph its easily discernible that .....

Melissa Virus
Number of words: 298 - Number of pages: 2.... and sends an infected message to the first 50 entries. Although the virus apparently causes no permanent damage to a computer, its clogging affects were far-reaching. All new Microsoft Word documents created on an infected computer will contain the virus, too. Our own computer lab has posted a warning stating if a you receive a mail docoument the says, "Here is that document you asked for ... don't show it to anyone else" with a winking smiley face formed by the punctuation marks ;-) that you don't open it and to delete it right away. A copy cat virus named, "Papa,'' appeared Monday afternoon. It attac .....

Multiple Sclerosis
Number of words: 1939 - Number of pages: 8.... MS among first degree relatives--parents, siblings, and children. It is also suspected that the same family members may inherent a genetic susceptibility to MS. While it is possible to inherit a genetic susceptibility to MS, it is not possible to inherit the disease. And even people who have all the necessary genes don't necessarily get MS. The disease, experts believe, must be triggered by environmental factors. So MS is not considered a hereditary disease.3
Until the definite cause of Ms is proved the treatment cannot be truly scientific. But there are .....

Comets
Number of words: 2266 - Number of pages: 9.... the ices under the crust to turn to a gas. Pressure builds up underneath the crust and causes the surface to bubble up in some places. Eventually, the weak spots of the crust break open from the pressure, and the gas shoots outward; this is referred to by astronomers as a jet. Dust that had been mixed in with the gas is also pushed out, and as more jets appear, a small gas and dust shell forms around the nucleus, and this is called the coma.
The coma, also called the head, is a dense cloud of water, carbon dioxide and other gases and comes off of the nucleus. The .....
