Sixty-one years ago last November‚ John Bardeen and Walter Brattain discovered the transistor at Bell Labs‚ in 1951. Before this‚ electronics used tubes‚ which happened to be extremely bulky‚ generated lots of heat‚ and had short life spans. The invention of smaller‚ more efficient‚ and more durable transistors brought a revolution in electronics. They became an important discovery that changed the world forever. The first ideas and experimentation with solid-state electronics began in 1874‚ but

Background: Pepsinogen is an inactive protein that is the mucus lining of the stomach. When converted to pepsin‚ the enzyme is used to break down large or undigested protein they has been absorbed by the small intestine. The digestive power of pepsin is greatest at the acidity of normal gastric juice (pH 1.5–2.5). In the intestine the gastric acids are neutralized (pH 7)‚ and pepsin is no longer effective.

bacteria in the lungs can cause reoccurring infections which permanently damage the organ similar to smoking cigarettes. In the pancreas‚ this thick mucus blocks the distribution channels that would transport produced enzymes to the intestines for the digestion of food. When this happens‚ the body can’t process or absorb nutrients as well as it should be able to. Having poor fat absorption makes the faeces of the effected bulky and oily and increases deficiencies of vitamins

Does the amount of time that orange juice is swished in a human mouth affect the pH of the saliva‚ which could inhibit the digestion of the starches in the orange juice? Hypothesis: The longer 2 mL of orange juice is held in a test subject’s mouth‚ the greater the ability of the test subject’s saliva will become to break down starches. Dependent Variable: pH of the saliva. Independent Variable: time that the juice is swished in the mouth. Controlled Variables: Orange juice only. The
