This formation consists of fossiliferous limestones and dolomites. The Winnipegosis was deposited in a reef setting and it is a productive hydrocarbon bed in parts of the basin. The Prairie Evaporite overlies the Winnipegosis. The Prairie is a thick stack of salt and anhydrites. Salt dissolution has let to salt collapse and which affects the overlaying units. Overlying the Prairie Evaporate is

Various preparations are made including different bases such as hydrocarbon bases‚ absorption bases‚ water soluble bases‚ emulsifying bases and vegetable oils. The medicaments are dispersed throughout the solution by the bases. Petroleum jelly‚ which is one of the major components in producing ointments‚ is a semi-solid mixture of hydrocarbons (with carbon numbers mainly higher than 25)‚ originally promoted as a topical ointment for its healing properties

Chlorophyll clip_image002Outline the role of photosynthesis in transforming light energy to chemical energy (including raw materials needed for this process) Photosynthesis occurs in all green plants and is the beginning of nearly all food chains therefore a source of life to all living organisms. It is the process where plants transform light energy from the sun into chemical energy. By using light energy trapped by chlorophyll (light absorbing pigment)‚ plants combine carbon dioxide and

Octane Rating Octane rating is a fuel’s ability to resist detonation and is classified by three main rating types. Octane rating is the measure of how resistant is gasoline and other fuels in the combustion engines to automatic ignition. It is the measure of a fuel’s burning characteristics. It is a standard measure of the performance of a motor or aviation fuel‚ the higher the octane number‚ the more compression the fuel can withstand before detonating. In broad terms‚ fuels with a higher octane

The catalyst to this epochal change was ordinary black coal - an energy rich hydrocarbon. A century later‚ oil and gas were added to satiate the thirst of industry. Man still relies mainly on these fossil fuels. Nevertheless many other sources of energy: hydro‚ solar‚ nuclear‚ wind‚ geothermal‚ biogas and wave have been taped. These sources of energy are not only renewable but clean as well. Since the hydrocarbons are exhaustible and their use also threatens human health and environment; this

A Discussion of Banking-Concept Limitations What do students obtain through education? Freire in his essay ‘The Banking Concept of Education’ argues that students gain useless and meaningless knowledge through education‚ and I agree with Freire because education has become an act of depositing meaningless information into students. Freire believes the current educational system is flawed due to the “Banking Concept”‚ which Freire describes as‚ “an act of depositing‚ in which the students are the
