Chemical Senses OLFACTION The sense of smell. Begins with the detection of molecules suspended in the air Olfactory stimuli Must be soluble in fat Taken through the nostrils and circulated within the nasal cavities connected to the nostrils. Olfactory epithelium Thin sheet of cells which contain neural receptors for olfaction Contains olfactory receptor cells and glia-type support cells that produce mucus Also contains basal cells which give rise to new receptors when needed Olfactory

Chemical Proportionality (Carbonate and Hydrochloric Acid) Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is what happens when a solid substance‚ a metal carbonate is added slowly to a solution of an acid. We are finding methods of determining acid concentration. For us to balance certain equations‚ we will use a stoichiometry. For this experiment‚ we will need to set up the ratio and finding the concentration of HCI. Procedure: • Grab 4 different beakers. • Add a small amount of sodium carbonate

IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON COASTAL AGRICULTURE OF BANGLADESH Introduction Climate change (CC) is the most alarming issue facing the world today. The consequences of climate variability and climate change are potentially more significant for the poor in developing countries .The impact of climate change on agriculture will be huge and substantive. Coastal people are highly exposed to a range of natural hazards‚ from storms and cyclones to widespread flooding and coastal erosion. Table: Potential

Explain how coastal flooding presents environmental‚ social‚ economic risks for the UK (10 marks) Coastal flooding occurs when normally dry‚ low-lying land is flooded by sea water. Coastal flooding is a serious threat to the UK. Many British cities are situated on or near the coast‚ on low-lying land‚ together with 40% of the UK’s manufacturing industry and sea level rise means that the UK are more at risk. Greater London and the Holderness coast are areas that are vulnerable to coastal flooding

Chemical Separation Introduction: The objective of this experiment was to extract the pigments from spinach leaves‚ perform Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) on the spinach leaf extract‚ and then determine the best solvent mixture to use to separate the pigments in the extract. The pigments are located inside the chloroplast walls in the cells of the spinach leaves. In order to obtain the pigments the cell walls must be broken down thus exposing the pigment containing chloroplasts. Upon
