    Reading Guide for Chapter 35 – The Vertebrates 1. What are the five features of the chordates? • A hollow dorsal nerve cord just beneath the dorsal surface of the animal. In vertebrates this differentiates into the brain and spinal cord. • A flexible rod called the notochord that’s on the dorsal side of the primitive gut in the early embryo‚ present at some developmental stage in all chordates‚ located just below the nerve cord. May persist in some chordates; in others‚ it is replaced by

    inventions‚ however his biggest interest was in Geometry. In his lifetime not only was he was able to create a ton of helpful inventions‚ he also discovered how to find the volume of a sphere‚ determine the exact value of Pi‚ created the Principle of Buoyancy‚ and also created Scientific Notation (Powers of Ten). He took great pride in his work and there were times where he became so in depth with his work‚ he often forgot to bathe or eat and some would say his real hunger was to learn! Archimedes became

    container. Archimedes’ principles is an upward force on an object immersed in a fluid (a liquid or a gas)‚ enabling it to float or at least to appear to become lighter. If the buoyancy exceeds the weight‚ then the object floats; if the weight exceeds the buoyancy‚ the object sinks. It was Archimedes who first discovered buoyancy (also known as Archimedes’ principle). The buoyant force is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. The Cartesian diver shows that air is compressable and water is

    State the principle of triple beam balance A beam balance measures mass as opposed to weight‚ so the mass you weigh will be the same on the moon as it is on earth. Gravity is taken out of the equation‚ unlike a spring balance that measures weight and would measure an article to be 1/6 of the weight on the moon as it would be on earth using the same spring balance that relied on gravity.  The principle is that of moment‚ or turning force/torque)‚ calculated by force x distance. Fundamentally‚

    concentration. The change in viscosity is proportional to the change in concentration and polymer ratio. The buoyancy lag time in simulated gastric fluid (0.1 mol L-1HCL‚ pH 1.2) varied with the formulation variables. Formulation P1 exhibited the least buoyancy lag time (26 s) while formulation P6 exhibited the highest lag time (219 s) (Table 5.4) (Figure 5.1 and 5.2). The decrease in the buoyancy lag time of a formulation P1 can be attributed to the availability of an increase amount of carbon dioxide
