Porcupine Puffer Fish Scientific name: Diodon hystrix “Biologists believe that puffer fish‚ also known as blowfish‚ developed their characteristic “inflatability†due to their slow‚ somewhat clumsy swimming style which makes them vulnerable to predators.†(National Geographic 1996-2011) Porcupine puffer fish have a shape much like that of a baseball bat‚ with large eyes to see their surroundings‚ a hard beak-like jaw to crush crunchy crustaceans and scales which are modified into long

12.097 Environmental Chemistry of Boston Harbor – IAP 2006 Lab 1: DETERMINATION OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN BY WINKLER TITRATION 1. Background Knowledge of the dissolved oxygen (O2) concentration in seawater is often necessary in environmental and marine science. It may be used by physical oceanographers to study water masses in the ocean. It provides the marine biologist with a means of measuring primary production - particularly in laboratory cultures. For the marine chemist‚ it provides a measure of

IMPORTANCE OF FORESTS Introduction Trees are mankind lifeline. If they are destroyed‚ there is no way that human beings can survive. From the oxygen that we breathe in‚ the food that we eat‚ to the clothes we wear‚ we owe it all to the trees. Not only this‚ trees act as purifiers of air and receptacles of our waste products. Trees have great economic value too. We get fuel‚ fodder‚ timber‚ medicines and numerous other valuable products from the trees. It is‚ therefore‚ not surprising that trees

for yoga practitioners to help and prepare them in theirMeditation process. In our respiration process‚ we breathe in or inhale oxygen into our body‚ going through our body systems in a form of energy to charge our different body parts. Then we exhale carbon dioxide and take away all toxic wastes from our body. Through the practice of Pranayama‚ the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide is attained. Absorbing prana through breath control links our body‚ mind‚ and spirit. But life is full of stress

Introduction Fish production in the Philippines is estimated at 6 million metric tons a year. About 55 percent comes from aquaculture and the rest is caught from the sea. Fish and fishery products are extremely consumable merchandise. After catch‚ these goods cannot be held for long and have to be marketed as fast as possible to prevent deterioration. Fish processing plays an important role in the fish industry. Processing transforms a perishable product like fish‚ into a more constant and

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy "is a well-established treatment for decompression sickness‚ a hazard of scuba diving" (Hyperbaric oxygen therapy‚ 2014). It involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized room or tube (Hyperbaric oxygen therapy‚ 2014). In a hyperbaric chamber the air pressure is increased by three times that of normal air pressure which allows the lungs to gather more oxygen (Hyperbaric oxygen therapy‚ 2014). The increase in oxygen within the body allows the body to better fight off bacteria
