Carbon‚ an element discovered before history itself‚ is one of the most abundant elements in the universe. It can be found in the sun‚ the stars‚ comets‚ and the atmospheres of most planets. There are close to ten million known carbon compounds‚ many thousands of which are vital to the basis of life itself. Carbon occurs in many forms in nature. One of its purest forms is diamond. Diamond is the hardest substance known on earth. Although diamonds found in nature are colorless and

DEFORESTATION INTRODUCTION: Deforestation‚ clearance or clearing is the removal of a forest or stand of trees where the land is thereafter converted to a non-forest use. Examples of deforestation include conversion of forestland to farms‚ ranches‚ or urban use. The term deforestation is often misused to describe any activity where all trees in an area are removed. However in temperate climates‚ the removal of all trees in an area in conformance with sustainable forestry practices—is correctly

brown sugar on the amount of CO2. To do this‚ white sugar was replaced with brown sugar and the amount of CO2 produced was calculated with a vernier gas pressure sensor. The control group was yeast and white sugar and the experimental group was yeast and brown sugar. The hypothesis that if brown sugar and yeast are mixed‚ then it will produce more CO2 than a mixture of white granulated sugar and yeast was accepted. The white sugar and yeast mixture had a slope of .003254 kPa/s. The brown sugar and yeast

Effects of hyperventilation on CO2 and pH levels Alidrin Armandico Physiology Lab 142 Egle Ortega Aprill 25‚ 2014 Abstract The aim of this experiment was to analyze how pH and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the blood change during hyperventilation and how the renal system compensates for this condition. Hyperventilation decreases CO2‚ increases pH‚ and lowers H+ levels which then results to respiratory alkalosis. In the experiment‚ we used the PhysioEx 8.0 software to simulate hyperventilation

The Calvin Cycle By: MJ Pineda The Calvin Cycle is basically a part of photosynthesis where plants take in carbon dioxide and uses ATP and NADPH to make sugars from the CO2 and water for the plant to use or for animals to eat. It does not require light‚ and is interestingly called the "dark cycle" 1. The first step of this cycle consists of A carbon atom from carbon dioxide molecule will enter the cycle and joins with a five carbon molecule that is present. 2. The six carbon molecule that

Carbon monoxide This gas is deadly if consumed in large amount because it replaces oxygen in the red blood cell. Red blood cell contains haemoglobin that transports oxygen molecules from the lungs to other parts of the body. On the other hand‚ haemoglobin has higher affinity to carbon monoxide as compared to oxygen. This shows that less oxygen reaches the brain‚ muscles‚ heart and other organs
