For our group project‚ we chose to create a parody of the short-story “Button‚ Button”. We thought it was best to stick somewhat to the original story. We kept the button aspect of it‚ in which we used a stapler to add a humorous effect. We also decided to keep a form of Mr. Stewart in our story‚ but instead we renamed him “Mr. Predabutn”. We did remove Norma from the story‚ mostly because a lack of actors‚ but also to keep the story a lot simpler. By no means‚ though‚ did we forget about Arthur

Balloon Respiration Lab Introduction/ Background Cellular respiration is a process that releases chemical energy from glucose and other carbon-based molecules to produce ATP when oxygen is present. The formula for cellular respiration is C6H12O6+ 6O2= 6CO2= 6H2O. The process of respiration contains three main parts‚ glycolysis‚ Krebs cycle‚ and the Electron Transport Chain. The process of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm and is considered an anaerobic process which splits glucose into two

source. The United States is too dependent on foreign oil. If something were to happen‚ like another war with the Middle East‚ we would not have any oil to power our cars or heat our homes. That’s why hydrogen is the answer. Everybody could make their own fuel for their country by creating hydrogen plants and buying hydrogen cars and not be dependent on foreign oil. Hydrogen is also better for the environment. Hydrogen is good because its only byproduct in water coming out of the exhaust pipe

Although balloon powered car racers have been around for quite a while

Solar powered cars have been said to be the future of renewable transportation and that they are supposed to be economically efficient and environmentally friendly. Though it may sound like pure science fiction‚ there is development happening around world that is bringing that notion into reality. As I researched thoroughly to create my conceptual model for solar cars‚ I asked myself this: Are solar vehicles even practical for the U.S.? Solar energy is the most abundant energy resource on earth
