UNIT ONE: the digestive system Digestion breaks down larger molecules into smaller ones. Mouth. Oesophagus is the tube that takes food from the mouth to the stomach using waves of muscle contractions called Peristalsis. Mucus is secreted from the tissues to lubricate the foods passage. Mouth.

Industrial Chemical Processes Essay Tan Hung Kai Grade 11 In our present world‚ there are thousands of chemical processes that are being used to produce products that benefits our daily lives. Industrial Chemical processes are used for “transforming raw materials into useful commercial products for society”. (Dr. Philip Britz-Mckibbin Industrial Chemistry: CHEM 2013) Examples of industrial chemical processes include distillation‚ smelting‚ disinfection‚ and Pyro processing. Even today‚ scientists

Market Structure Simulation Quasar Computers When industries are selling similar products this makes up market structure. I will be discussing economic profit that Quasar computer is able to make. The market structure is made of the following pure monopoly‚ pure competition‚ monopolistic competition‚ and oligopoly. In the simulation I learn about pricing and non pricing strategies and understanding the diverse market structure. Quasar put out a new first all-optical notebook that is called

focuses on the lighter elements‚ but the forbitals aren’t occupied in the ground state until element 58 (cerium). Even for elements beyond cerium‚ the f orbitals are deeply buried beneath the valence shell and they rarely play an important role in chemical change or bonding. However‚ the orbital shapes can be useful in interpreting spectra and in understanding the structure of some complexes that involve the rare earth elements. So here they are‚ if you need them. The yellow and blue colors designate

food into molecules that are small enough to enter cells Chemical digestion : the process of breaking apart complex molecules into simple molecules is called chemical digestion when carried out by enzymes. Mechanical digestion: Is the physical breaking down of larger food into pieces to increase its surface area (the higher the surface area‚ the higher the rate of chemical digestion. Peristalsis: the squeezing of the digestive tract that pushes food down in one direction. Bolus: the partially
