Aim: The aim of this experiment is to investigate the movement of water into and out of plant cells by osmosis. The cells chosen for study will be taken from potato tubes as they provide a ready supply of homogeneous material. I did the investigation in two parts‚ the first part of my investigation was my preliminary investigation and then I did my official investigation. In both of my investigations there are several similarities‚ such as fair testing‚ variables‚ key variables‚ reliability

Application of the Triaxial test in engineering practice The information such as the shear strength parameters and the cohesion that obtained from triaxial test can be used to check the safety and predict the behaviors of long-term stability of slopes‚ earth fills and earth retaining structures. The analysis carried out in terms of total stress obtained from undrained test can be used to investigate the initial stability of the foundation of a structure or embankment on saturated clay.

Genetic Engineering‚ History and Future: Altering the Face of Science Science is a creature that continues to evolve at a much higher rate than the beings that gave it birth. The transformation time from tree-shrew‚ to ape‚ to human far exceeds the time from analytical engine‚ to calculator‚ to computer. But science‚ in the past‚ has always remained distant. It has allowed for advances in production‚ transportation‚ and even entertainment‚ but never in history will science be able

complications such as "back contamination"‚ bringing diseases back from space‚ and "forward contamination"‚ bringing Earth’s diseases into space‚ should be taken into account (Source F). However‚ these sorts of problems are not unsolvable. They are simply an issue of ethics. In "To Boldly Go: Ethical Considerations for Space Exploration" (Source E)‚ Margaret McLean takes a similar stance. She isn’t against space exploration altogether‚ but instead advises explorers to "account for [their] urges and

Pros and Cons of Space Exploration We plan vacations to tourist spots nearby; we plan to spend holidays to faraway lands. But how would it feel if we could plan a vacation to Mars? How would it be to plan a holiday to some ’tourist destination’ in space? Won’t it be exciting? Definitely‚ yes! Although it sounds unbelievable‚ it has the potential of becoming a reality. The dream once dreaded is seen with thrill today. It is on its way of turning true if we succeed in exploring space. Astronomers and
