ATOMIC PHYSICS The nuclear atom All matter is made up of atoms which consist of a central nucleus‚ surrounded by electrons. Inside the nucleus are protons and neutrons. Particle Relative mass Charge Location Proton 1840 + Nucleus Neutron 1840 0 Nucleus Electron 1 - Outside nucleus Proton or atomic number (Z) This is the total number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Nucleon or mass number (A) This is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. Note: a nucleon

higher neutron to proton ratio‚ rising to 1.5/1 for elements having atomic numbers between 20 and 83. An understanding of the Belt of Stability will allow you to predict how unstable nuclides will decay. The typical modes of radioactive decay are alpha decay‚ beta decay and electron capture (or positron emission). During alpha decay‚ the mass number of the nuclide decreases by 4 units and the number of protons decreases by 2. This type of decay is associated with heavy‚ unstable nuclides. Since no stable

Calculating Beta for Compuware Corporation Financial websites tend to calculate beta on securities differently for publicly traded companies. Beta is merely an estimable measure of an assets’ risk in relation to the market. Because each website has their own underlying assumptions‚ they compute beta to have different values. In some cases‚ the variance in beta is as large as 0.50. To find out what underlying assumptions websites used to compute their betas‚ we performed a series of regression

EMG 9 and EMG 26 contain strain _lac-_(I- Z+ Y+) and strain _lac -_ (I+ Z- Y-)respectively.Three genes huddled together on the chromosome are required for two strains of _E.coli_ to utilize lactose.Consisting of three genes‚ namely‚ _lacZ_‚ _lacY_ and _lacA_‚ the _lac_ operon orderly handles these genes to code specific enzymes necessary for the metabolism of lactose. The genes _lacZ_‚ _lacY_ and _lacI_ would code for beta-galactosidase‚ galactosidase permease

According to the Alzheimer ’s Association‚ it is believed that a disruption in the formation‚ accumulation or removal of beta amyloid proteins is the primary cause of Alzheimer ’s disease. Researchers believe that the accumulation of beta amyloid plaques causes a disruption in neural communication and activates the inflammatory response by the immune system in which immune cells attack and further destroy neural cells (PromiseO

digestive enzyme found in the intestines of mammals. Beta-galactosidase is an enzyme that initiates the breakdown of the substrate lactose. Lactose is a disaccharide sugar found in milk. It is composed of two rings. The rings contain 5 carbon atoms and an oxygen atom. Attached to the carbon atoms are a hydrogen atom and an OH group or another carbon. The rings are bound together by an oxygen bridge. This bridge can be broken when the enzyme Beta-galactosidase binds to lactose and a water molecule

Ethiopian Jews Airlifts It may be new information or it may be old information‚ but there is and were actually Jews in Ethiopia called Beta Israel‚ or House of Israel. The origin of these Jews is arguable‚ one opinion is that they are the lost tribe of Dan and that during the exodus from Egypt they wandered down to Ethiopia and there they started a life. (pbs) Another opinion is that they came from Queen Sheba and King Solomon because there is a legend that Queen Sheba went to Jerusalem

problem we are studying was to determine the cellular damage of various concentrations of propanol‚ ethanol‚ methanol‚ NaCL‚ and sodium dodecyl sulfate henceforth known as SDS on Beta vulgaris to ultimately distinguish the ability of each solution to permeate the membrane of the Beta vulgaris. • Beta vulgaris contains a beta cyanin which is a water-soluble red-pigment‚ which remains in a healthy vacuole surrounded by the tonoplast membrane.
