Sadly‚ our post-apocalyptic wanderer is in for a very disappointing evening. He or she will soon discover that attempting to power an iPod with a Gatorade-soaked onion doesn’t work. Many Internet users today have made the same discovery after viewing the video in question‚ produced by the Web site HouseholdHacker.com. First‚ let’s examine the idea of powering any electronic device with a fruit or vegetable. The concept is believable because you can create a battery with a few potatoes. This

cases visibility of gastric distention or visible gastric distention peristalsis may be seen in some cases on the left upper quadrant to the epigastum (CINCINNSTI CHILDREN’S‚ 2007). 2. LABORATORY TEST Laboratory test for HPS includes checking the electrolyte imbalance which includes the hypochloraemic‚ hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis. Hypochloraemic is due to loss of hydrochloric acid in the vomited fluids. Hypokalemia resulted from excretion of potassium from the kidney to compensate the hydrogen lost

The Laboratory Diagnosis and management of Diabetic Coma Diabetes is any disorder of the metabolism which causes excessive thirst and the production of large volumes of urine. A coma is a state of unrousable unconsciousness. (Martin (2002)) There are two types of diabetes: Diabetes Insipidus (DI) is a rare metabolic disorder‚ the symptoms of which are the production of large quantities of dilute urine and an increased thirst. It is caused by a deficiency of the pituitary hormone Anti-diuretic

the voltaic pile. How does a voltaic pile make electricity? The key to electricity is the movement of electrons. In a voltaic pile‚ electrons move from one metal to the other through the saltwater solution. The saltwater solution is called an electrolyte‚ and it contains ions in solution from the dissolved salts. An ion is a group of atoms that carries a positive or negative electric charge. The ions react with the metals‚ causing an electrochemical reaction‚ a special kind of chemical reaction

What is cholecystitis? Cholecystitis is caused by a blockade of the cystic duct‚ leading to distention of the gallbladder. This is also known as calculus cholecystitis‚ this caused by the reason of gallbladder‚ or cholelithiasis. There are many other cause of acute cholecystitis such as ischemia‚ allergic reactions infections with protozoa‚ and poisoning. When the gallbladder becomes distended‚ blood flow and lymphatic drainage are compromised in which it can lead to mucosal ischemia and necrosis

conduct an electric current. Base Property #4: Bases conduct an electric current. This is a common property shared with salts. Acids‚ bases and salts are grouped together into a category called electrolytes‚ meaning that a water solution of the given substance will conduct an electric current. Non-electrolyte solutions cannot conduct a current. The most common example of this is sugar dissolved in water. So far‚ the properties have an obvious relationship: taste‚ color change‚ mutual destruction
