Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION A.] BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Waterborne diseases are defined as one of the most dangerous diseases that can be found on flowing water. These diseases are very harmful not only to our digestive system but also to all of the parts of our body. These diseases can kill many people that are drinking water on the tap water and mostly on the drinking fountain; people might drink on a drinking fountain which is dirty because of the different people that are drinking and spiting

since a small number of academic chemists began to isolate and elucidate novel compounds from marine sources in the 1970’s. Drug discovery research from marine organisms has been accelerating and now involves interdisciplinary research including biochemistry‚ biology‚ ecology‚ organic chemistry‚ and pharmacology. These entities are the sources of new leads for treatment of many diseases such as cancer‚ AIDS‚ inflammatory conditions‚ and a large variety of viral‚ bacterial and fungal diseases. Because

Acid: A chemical substance (typically‚ a corrosive or sour-tasting liquid) that neutralizes alkalis‚ dissolves some metals‚ and turns litmus red. Ionic Dissociation: Dissociation in chemistry and biochemistry is a general process in which ionic compounds (complexes‚ or salts) separate or split into smaller particles‚ ions‚ or radicals‚ usually in a reversible manner. Strength of Acids: The strength of an acid refers to its ability or tendency to lose a proton. There are very few strong acids. A

Outline and Evaluate the biological approach to abnormality The biological approach sees abnormality as a physical illness and removes psychological blame and responsibility for the behaviour form the patients. Biochemistry; which is where abnormal functioning in the brain can be caused by abnormal levels of neurotransmitters and hormones. Neurotransmitters are the chemical messengers that allow neurones to communicate with one another at synapses. Hormones are chemical messengers that are secreted

that people at Skidmore could make me laugh was because they were so different than students at my boarding school. I met people from all over the world‚ from Africa to Latin America‚ who were interested in all sorts of things‚ from theater to biochemistry‚ and this diversity helped me let go. It was a joy I had perhaps never felt before. I slowly started noticing my habits about laughing

Pretend you are a rat in a lab about to be tested. There are big scary humans about to poke potentially poisonous needles into your skin. You are howling in pain. You don’t know why they’re doing this. Suddenly‚ you feel a cold finger on your spine. It pushes hard‚ and the pressure builds more and more and then Crack! You’re dead. This is what takes place in the brutal practice of animal testing. Scientists practice this‚ and even more painful and harmful things on animals‚ to test the toxicity of

FOUNDATIONS OF INTERPROFESSIONAL PRACTICE INTRODUCTION When I started my physiotherapy course at Glasgow Caledonian University in September‚ one of the modules I undertook for the duration of semester one was ‘Foundations of Interprofessional Practice’. Leathard (2003) describes the term “interprofessional” as the interaction between professionals from different disciplines working together to achieve the same goals; and further their studies through shared learning. This module gives students
