report on is oxygen. The name oxygen comes from the Greek word “oxygens‚” which means “acid producer”. Dictionary.com defines oxygen as “a colorless‚ odorless‚ gaseous element constituting about one-fifth of the volume of the atmosphere and present in a combined state in nature.” Oxygen has many uses today. First‚ oxygen is used by people‚ plants‚ and animals in the respiration process. Tanks of oxygen are used in the healthcare field to treat those who suffer from breathing problems. Oxygen is used as

Oxygen Requirements of Bacteria BACKGROUND The GasPak system is useful for culturing anaerobic bacteria on standard microbiological media because the GasPak generates carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The hydrogen will combine with oxygen present in an anaerobic jar to produce water. This system can reproducibly attain oxygen levels in the parts per million range if used correctly. This is the best method for determining the oxygen requirements of unknown organisms. A candle jar is useful

Introduction: An oxygen sensor‚ or lambda sensor‚ is an electronic device that measures the proportion of oxygen (O2) in the gas or liquid being analyzed. It was developed by Robert Bosch GmbH during the late 1960s under supervision by Dr. Günter Bauman. The original sensing element is made with a thimble-shaped zirconia ceramic coated on both the exhaust and reference sides with a thin layer of platinum and comes in both heated and unheated forms. The most common application is to measure the

The goal of this study was to measure the oxygen consumption of goldfish in an ambient environment and dark environment and calculate if there was any difference in metabolism based on oxygen consumption. The experimental hypothesis was that the metabolic rate of the goldfish as measured by oxygen consumption differs in a dark environment than in an ambient environment. The null hypothesis was that the metabolic rate of the gold fish as measured by oxygen consumption does not differ in darkness versus

Without oxygen‚ life itself would be nonexistent. Imagine what would happen if wounds did not get better‚ incisions did not heal‚ and burns did not improve. This is where hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) comes into play. Oxygen is necessary for the replenishment of tissues‚ healing of the body and assisting with general ailments. HBOT is used for a wide variety of treatments usually as requested in a medical care plan (Society‚ 1996). In this paper I will introduce what hyperbaric oxygen therapy

Discovery Oxygen was first discovered by two scientists. One was a British Chemist Joseph Priestly who was given credit for the discovery in 1774. The other was a Swedish Chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele who had also discovered it around the same time as Priestly. Yet Priestly was given credit because his work‚ and results were published. Priestly had first found this new element when he observed that mercuric oxide‚ on heating. Yielded a gas that caused a flame to burn faster. He later found that
