the organic compounds produced by autotrophic organisms (create their own organic compounds). We get these organic molecules from what we call food (a nutritious substance that is used or absorbed to maintain life and growth). We measure things based on 1000 calories (The energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius). In food we measure in Calories (which is a kilocalorie).

Change what people eat and you change their lives. Food is all about the stories that define our lives. When it comes to the rhythms and symbols of faith‚ it’s easy to see the role that food plays. Food also reflects what people believe about family and community life. Understanding the role of food in cultural and religious practice is an important part of showing respect and responding to the needs of people from a range of religious communities. However‚ it is important to avoid assumptions about

computer ------------------------------------------------- Computational chemistry From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Computational chemistry is a branch of chemistry that uses principles of computer science to assist in solving chemical problems. It uses the results of theoretical chemistry‚ incorporated into efficient computer programs‚ to calculate the structures and properties of molecules and solids. Its necessity arises from the well-known fact that apart from relatively recent results

Genetically modified foods are foods produced from organisms that have had specific changes introduced into their DNA using the methods of genetic engineering. These techniques have allowed for the introduction of new crop traits as well as a far greater control over a food ’s genetic structure than previously afforded by methods such as selective breeding and mutation breeding. Conventional plant breeding methods can be very time consuming and are often not very accurate. But genetic engineering

Chemistry of Sunscreens “Over 400 years ago‚ Copernicus declared that the sun was the center of our universe. Primitive societies in every continent have worshiped the sun as the god that provided warmth and made the crops grow” Today‚ the sun is not something we worship but something we try to avoid due to the fact that we are aware that it contains two main sources of ultraviolet radiation that is harmful to our bodies. Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is defined by wavelengths‚ and is divided

Polymer Chemistry Classification of Polymers – Notes prepared by The most common way of classifying polymers is to separate them into three groups - thermoplastics‚ thermosets‚ and elastomers5. The thermoplastics can be divided into two types - those that are crystalline and those that are amorphous. You may click on the words in the diagram below to learn more about these classifications. Thermoplastics Molecules in a thermoplastic are held together by relatively weak intermolecular
