Diatom is part of the stramenopiles clade‚ which is considered to be plant-like autotrophs that are often called algae. These autotrophs are mainly photosynthetic using chlorophylls a‚ chlorophylls c and xanthophyll to undergo photosynthesis to convert energy from the sun. Some species of Diatom are colorless‚ but those that do have color get it from various pigments. Diatom have two halves of their cell wall making up what’s called a silica cell wall. The soft part of the cell wall decomposes‚ but

mycelium. Fungi decompose dead animals and plant matter. Fungi releases carbon dioxide to the air. Bacteria are prokaryotic. Bacterial cells usually come in one of 3 shapes: cocci‚ bacilli‚ spirilla. They can be by themselves‚ in pair‚ chains‚ or clusters. They can use either a flagella or pili to move the cell. Bacteria can reproduce by binary fission or by conjugation. Bacteria can get into your body a number of ways: by inhaling those‚ through cuts‚ eating contaminated food‚ or getting bit by

I started learning English when I was in elementary school‚ at which time English for children was taught through songs‚ stories‚ and games. The joy of understanding a different language other than my own was beyond compare‚ which started to pique my interest in linguistics. High school came when I decided to challenge myself with a completely new foreign language‚ and my choice was French. Merely one semester into studying French‚ I found myself extremely lucky having chosen this language as it

transported to the liver‚ where it undergoes conjugation and excretion. Upon its separation from albumin on hepatocyte membrane‚ bilirubin binds to specific carriers and is intracellularly transferred to the site where it conjugates with glucuronic acid to form bilirubin diglucuronide and bilirubin monoglucuronide. During this process‚ the insoluble form of bilirubin is converted into its soluble form‚ known as conjugated or bound bilirubin. Upon conjugation‚ the bilirubin from hepatocytes is excreted

WHY ENGLISH? There are in Asia many different languages as well as many different dialects. This is true also of many parts of Africa where in Ghana alone there are many different languages‚ each one again‚ with many dialects. Therefore since it is only by the spoken word that human beings can communicate with one another‚ the necessity for a common language‚ whatever that common language may be is obvious. Common language that has been state up is the English language. English has been choose

6.6 ppm. This ratio of 94/6 almost completely favors the E product as it is more stable due to its conjugation. In order for proper conjugation a molecule must be flat which Z-Stilbene does not possess due to steric hindrance of its benzene rings being so close together. It causes the molecule to twist. E-Stilbene on the other hand does not have to twist due to hindrance and thus has full conjugation. The recrystallized E-Stilbene product is mostly pure as its NMR matches the literature value for
