Dianelys Garcia I would like to do a research on Radiation Therapy because that is what I am going to study next semester. I want to know things like jobs opportunities‚ further education‚ job duties‚ salary‚ and side effects. The fact that I got accepted into this program make me so happy‚ and I thanks God for this opportunity. I think that I can help other thru this career. Help people to feel better and help to treat cancer. A health issue that affects many people. Many of us had lost

Adaptive Radiation An example of adaptive radiation occurring after a mass extinction is the extinction that killed off the dinosaurs. What caused this mass extinction was when a massive comet hit earth‚ off the Yucatan Peninsula. However‚ the mammals that survived this catastrophic event for the most part‚ survived because they could burrow in holes for shelter. Regardless‚ about 90% of all life on earth was destroyed. This led to an opportunity for the surviving plants and animals to disperse

The effect of mobile phone radiation on human health is the subject of recent interest and study‚ as a result of the enormous increase in mobile phone usage throughout the world (as of June 2009‚ there were more than 4.3 billion users worldwide). Mobile phones use electromagnetic in the microwave range. Other digital wireless systems‚ such as data communication networks‚ produce similar radiation. The WHO has classified mobile phone radiation on the IARC scale into Group 2B - possibly carcinogenic

It was hypothesized before the experiment that enough water with sunlight and air should make the plants grow healthy. It has to do with photosynthesis. Fertilizer is also going to make the plants grow much faster; this is because of the nutrients in it. The experiment took about four to six weeks to complete; it took some

insufficient physical exercise. However‚ not all known causes of cancer such as ionizing radiation are covered to this extent. How big of a role does ionizing radiation play in cancer deaths? Is it even worth noticing? First‚ in order to understand why ionizing radiation leads to cancer‚ an important distinction must be made between ionizing and nonionizing radiation. “Radiation is ionizing if the energy of the radiation suffices to remove an electron from an atom to create an ion. Conversely‚ if the energy

This short story is a good example of what could happen in the future. The Day the Earth Stood Still is a movie that also has the same genre‚ that it is science fiction. It helps

Genetically modified corn‚ Gasoline and High fructose corn syrup Did you know that about 85% of our corn is genetically modified (True Food Network)? It’s really surprising how genetically modified food has been incorporated into our society. We eat genetically modified food every single day whether it would be yogurt‚ fruits‚ milk‚ peanut butter‚ etc. So what is genetically modified food‚ according to “Non-GMO shopping guide”‚ genetically modified food (also known as GMO) is define as “the result
