Pithecellobium dulce (Roxb.)Bth. Pithecellobium dulce is a tree that reaches a height of about 10 to 15 m (33 to 49 ft). Its trunk is spiny and its leaves are bipinnate. Each pinna has a single pair of ovate- blong leaflets that are about 2 to 4 cm (0.79 to 1.57 in) long. The flowers are greenish-white‚ fragrant‚ sessile and reach about 12 cm (4.7 in) in length‚ though appear shorter due to coiling. The flowers produce a pod‚ which turns pink when ripe and opens to expose an edible pulp. The pulp

or separating a certain particle by speeding up the natural reaction between the particles‚ often by millions of times. The shape of an enzyme creates a phenomenon in which only select particles can enter the active site. For example‚ the enzyme amylase is only able to break down starch polymers. Changing the shape of an enzyme renders it useless. In this experiment‚ every group but the Popbeads group conducted a hydrolysis reaction. The Popbeads represented a condensation reaction. This is because

Energy Metabolism Respiration and the Respiratory System- The respiratory system is in charge of getting the oxygen needed for respiration to the blood flow where it is passed by the blood cells around the body to reach each living cell. The lungs have a huge blood supply and a huge surface area so they are very effective at getting oxygen out of the air. They are also in charge of getting rid of the carbon dioxide excess and some of the excess water as water vapour. It is the lungs job to

Florence Nightingale believed that unnecessary noise is the most cruel absence of care‚ which can be inflicted either on sick or on well (Choiniere‚ 2010). “Sleep is essential in healing”‚ is what we have been told since the second we walked through the door of nursing school. What we do not learn in school is the amount of noise that actually exists in the hospital and the negative effects it has on our patients. Hospital noise has negative effects on our patients and on us‚ healthcare workers.

begins. First the food is physically broken down by the mechanical process of mastication (chewing)‚ into smaller particles‚ creating a bolus with the tongue against the soft plate. During this phase‚ the salivary glands mix the food with salivary amylase beginning the chemical digestion of starches. The bolus then enters the pharynx (throat) first then is routed to the esophagus. These two tubes are simply passageways for the food to be carried to the holding tank‚ known as the stomach. Neither have

Parotoid savary gland lies under the skin on each side of the mandible. These glands secrete amylase‚ an enzyme that breaks down starches. The parotoid duct implies empties into the vestibule at the level of the second upper molar. The sublingual duct is (located under the tongue) between the mucus membrane of the floor of the mouth and the submandibular
