SILK Silk is undisputedly the most beautiful of all natural fibers‚ with its unearthly sheen. It is also uncommonly strong‚ even at its finest‚ when it is almost invisible. It is unlike any other fiber used to make fabrics‚ for it is neither grown in a field or on an animal. It is not manufactured in a factory. A humble caterpillar about the size of a woman’s smallest finger produces the silk fiber‚ spinning it out of its mouth‚ using tiny fore-legs to place the silk where it should go. It is

To learn the ropes of music production‚ one can learn to be a producer by attending recording or music school. However recording school is not for everyone‚ It can be too expensive for some and too “academic” for others. A music producer’s job can be as easy as sitting on the couch listening and nodding and as active as controlling the mixer as well as calibrating the equipment for a vocalist. Good music producers understand every aspect of studio production. They also have a very good ear and

the demand theory that pivots around the concept of the demand function‚ the theory of production revolves around the concept of the production function. A production function can be an equation‚ table or graph presenting the maximum amount of a commodity that a firm can produce from a given set of inputs during a period of time. The concept of production function portrays the ways in which the factors of production are combined by a firm to produce different levels of output. More specifically‚ it

Urine production If body fluids are hypo osmolar‚ then kidney will produces hypo osmolar urine. (Dilute urine) If body fluids are hyper osmolar (dehydration) then kidney produces hyperosmolar urine. (concentrated urine) In the renal cortex the osmolarity of interstitial fluid is 300mOs/L going to 1200mOs/L in the papilla. From the cortex to the papilla there is an increasing hyper osmolarity of the interstitial fluid. Cortico papillary osmolarity gradient. Urine with osmolarity more than 300mOs/l

Sugar was not only a stimulant to consumers but also for anyone else in the production of it‚ more and more sugar was being demanded‚ perhaps because of it accessibility or the money that came out of it. If it weren’t for producers‚ consumers‚ and entrepreneurs sugar production would not have been one of the biggest productions of a crop in the world. The organization of sugar met the needs of producers‚ because sugar production was profitable and did not consist of many owners; it met the needs of consumers

Mass production refers to the making of large quantities of standardized products. The process involves division of labour and each worker specializes in one or two tasks‚ doing repetitive work. On the other hand‚ the craftsman is the expert who is solely responsible for all the steps involved in producing the product. There is assumption that the craftsman is the master who has skill‚ and expertise to ensure that all his products are of a good quality. Whether mass production will inevitably lead

1. Briefly describe salt production from brine production to finished round cans. Salt is produce by drilling the surface for about 2‚400 feet below. Then‚ water is infused in this cave; thus‚ salt is dissolved with the water. The resulting brine is then pumped in the surface‚ boiled and when it evaporates‚ salt crystals will occur with some moisture but can be removed through the drying process. This happen continuously for about 6 weeks but there will come a point where output will reduce (normal

Antibiotic Production from the plant Lantana camara Project Summary The purpose of this experimental procedure is targeted to find a novel bacterium from the soil of Lantana camara that can be used in the dental field to kill or stop the growth of the Streptococcus mutans bacteria. The experimental procedure is to take place over a time frame of ten weeks conducted by a student team of four. The proposed methodology to take place is to cultivate and purify isolates from the soil‚ find antibiotic

procurement to manufacturing and logistics must be performed in a synchronized fashion. By ascertaining the latest market demand data‚ forecasting future changes‚ and conveying the necessary information to each process simultaneously‚ Casio prepares production plans that adapt to continually changing demand. Design affects all subsequent processes in ways that determine the amounts of materials used‚ the labor required in manufacturing‚ and the energy required for transportation. Accordingly‚ excess
