increase the transpiration rate more than the others? Why? The transportation was increased mostly by the fan: 6.4 As it increased the respiration by transporting water away from plant. 4. Which species of plants that you tested had the highest transpiration rates? Why do you think different species of plants transpire at different rates? The plant that was observed with the highest rate of transportation is the rubber plant. Also‚ each plant species has a rate of transportation‚ good

Despite the sharp decrease in the dropout rate in rural America between the years 1975 and 1993 which essentially closed the gap between the urban and rural dropout rates‚ over 10 percent of rural students still do not finish high school and have difficulty finding gainful employment (e.g.‚ Paasch & Swaim‚ 1995). Graduation is an extremely important milestone in the life of an individual as they prepare for adult life (Paasch & Swaim‚ 1995). For instance‚ high school graduates have a greater chance

Bridgeton Assignment 1. The overhead allocation rate used in the 1987 model year strategy study at the Automotive Component & Fabrication Plant (ACF) was 435% of direct labor dollar cost. Calculate the overhead allocation rate using the 1987 model year budget. Why do you get different numbers? 2. Calculate the overhead allocation rate for each of the model years 1988 through 1990. Are the changes since 1987 in overhead allocation rates significant? Why have these changes occurred? 3

LCT and UCT causes the endotherm’s metabolic rate to increase. We can hypothesize that when the temperature falls below the LCT or above the UCT‚ the percent O2 consumption will increase‚ and thus‚ the metabolic rate. The hypothesis was supported by the result received in this lab. The thermal neutral zone (TNZ) of an endotherm is its temperature tolerance range. For the mouse‚ this is about room temperature. It is seen that in the TNZ‚ the metabolic rate decreases from about 1.75 to 1 (Fig 1). During
