environment. Tobacco contains at least three dangerous chemicals: tar‚ nicotine and carbon monoxide‚ The tar is mixed into the material by several substances‚ and will be concentrated in a viscous substance in the lungs. Nicotine will cause addiction and be absorbed into the lungs‚ having an impact on the nervous system. Carbon monoxide can reduce the red blood cells carrying oxygen to the body. Carbon monoxide also pollutes the environment. Large amounts

I accomplished talking to the local elderly community of the area about various topics such as Tylenol‚ carbon monoxide‚ and Naloxone. I worked with a group of other students to present a poster on these topics as well as distribute handouts on these topics. We were aware that people can easily get bored so we did our best to communicate the most essential‚ concise‚ and important points about our topics. We also had Dr. VanWert with us to answer questions that we were unable to answer. This experience

fittings and pipe melting. Melting of the PVC pipe can be very dangerous. If behind a wall or in the ceiling‚ a melted pipe can leak condensation and create mold growth behind drywall. Even more dangerous is the release of carbon monoxide gas out of a melted pipe. Carbon Monoxide is a lethal gas and can lead to a fatal situation. Manufacturers sometimes recommend using PVC for their installations. Research has found that

1. Title: The Process of Determining the Unknown Bacteria #9 Rachel Judecki July 5‚ 2011 2. Introduction: Each student was given unknown bacteria and was instructed to perform a variety of experimental tests that would help to identify their bacteria. During the process of identification‚ the unknown bacteria was added to many different testing medias using aseptic technique. They are as follows: lactose fermentation on eosin methylene blue (EMB)‚ TSI (Triple Sugar Iron agar)‚ Phenol

single bonds. Alkanes are highly combustible and it is a valuable fuel‚ and during combustion reaction‚ alkane can release a very large amount of heat and the product yield from this reaction is H2O (water)‚ and CO2 (carbon dioxide) or CO (carbon monoxide)‚ in which depends on whether the reaction is complete or incomplete. The first 4 alkanes‚ Methane‚ ethane‚ propane‚ and butane‚ are gases and can be used directly as fuel. Alkanes from pentane up to about decane can form gasoline in a specific proportion

disease called chlorosis that affected the production of starch in the plant. The leaf should be green with chlorophyll and pigments on it‚ in order to produce starch. If it became yellow the respiration of the plant is also affected due to carbon monoxide. People who smoke should start avoid smoking in an area filled with lots of plants. Air pollutants producers like factories should stay away from the forests. They should probably lessen its production to avoid calamity in plants which leads to our

sleeping increased appetite 12 HOURS AFTER YOU QUIT Carbon monoxide – which can be toxic to the body at high levels – is released from burning tobacco and inhaled as part of cigarette smoke. Because carbon monoxide bonds so well to blood cells‚ high levels of the substance can prevent these cells from bonding with oxygen‚ which in turn causes serious cardiovascular problems. In just 12 hours after quitting smoking‚ the carbon monoxide in your body decreases to normal levels‚ and your blood oxygen
