The health benefits of breastfeeding are well established in the literature and also in history. Let’s face it babies have been breastfed since the beginning of time. Improved resistance to infectious illness: Breastfeeding provides the infant with many immunological benefits and protects against infectious diseases. The mother’s immune system is more mature than a baby’s over time the mother has had the opportunity to build resistance to many disease causing pathogens. This protection is passed

natural selection. Organisms change over time as a result of heritable physical and behavioural trait changes. The changes were due to the genes in the gene pool due to environmental pressures. For example: skull shape‚ fur colour‚ teeth shape‚ digestion of seal fat etc. The changes allow organisms to adapt better to the environment which will help it survive and have more offspring. Lamarck’s Theory of Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics is the use and disuse of an organism. An organism changes

Gravimetric Determination of Phosphorus in Fertilizer Samples ------------------------------------------------- Results and Discussion More than 50% of fertilizers are composed of nitrogen‚ phosphorus and potassium because these three nutrients are essential but are deficient in soils. To ensure good quality of fertilizers‚ it is significant that the amounts of these nutrients are quantified. In this light‚ gravimetric principles are of much use. The objective of the experiment is to determine

enzymes secreted by the pancreas for digestion are lipases for lipid/fat digestion‚ pancreatic amylase for carbohydrate digestion which continues the breakdown of the starch in the bread to a substance called maltose. As the food is further pushed along the small intestine it produces maltase which breaks down the maltose into an even smaller molecule called glucose. Another enzyme called protease - in the form of trypsin and chymotrypsin - are used in the digestion of protein to amino acids. In addition

Microwave digestion is the perfect compliment to ICP-MS‚ ensuring rapid‚ clean digestions with no analyte loss. Microwave-assisted digestion in closed vessels is the best in the preparation of sample. This allows a contamination-free environment‚ as well as a single preparation method for all elements of interest. The high pressure
