In modern day‚ man does not truly think about how much the earth means to life. On the contrary‚ humans aspire to cease Mother Nature’s beauty with the replacement of modern day cities made up of synthetic nature. Since the dawn of the twentieth century‚ a major theme in the American Arts has been the protest against man’s destruction of the natural world. With this in mind‚ as very well argued in Chief Seattle’s article “Respect”‚ humans fail to be conscious of the physical and sentimental value

Conservation of energy and transformation of energy. By Paige‚ Stacie‚ Amelia. Objectives Learning about Conservation of energy Learning about transformation of energy Conservation – Preserving a substance. Metabolism Metabolism is a process in which you break down foods into calories and these are combined with oxygen to release the energy that your body needs in order to function/live. This is a very complicated bio-chemical process. Metabolism is essential for the energy for these functions:

Protein synthesis is one of the most fundamental biological processes. To start off‚ a protein is made in a ribosome. There are many cellular mechanisms involved with protein synthesis. Before the process of protein synthesis can be described‚ a person must know what proteins are made out of. There are four basic levels of protein organization. The first is primary structure‚ followed by secondary structure‚ then tertiary structure‚ and the last level is quaternary structure. Once someone understands

describes the journey of a drug through the body i.e. its absorption‚ bioavailability‚ distribution‚ metabolism and excretion. Opioids are substances (endogenous or synthetic)‚ which produce ‘opiate-like effects’. Opiates are alkaloids derived from the Papaver somniferum poppy e.g. Morphine‚ Codeine (a morphine-like agonist) and Methadone (a synthetic analogue of morphine) and are primarily used as analgesics.[1] Discussion: Morphine has a 4-ring structure with a tertiary nitrogen (permits anchoring

The Energy of the Future The United States of America is in desperate need of an alternate energy source. One such alternate source is nuclear power. Nuclear power is a form of energy produced by an atomic reaction‚ which is capable of producing an alternative source of electrical power‚ replacing the energy currently supplied by coal‚ gas‚ or oil. This will help the United States move away from burning fossil fuels and potentially reduce overall pollution. Nuclear power has the potential to be

acidification of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. The objective was to convert a specific amount of salicylic acid into the same amount of aspirin that was high in purity. Furthermore‚ the other objectives were to enable students to conduct the synthesis of aspirin‚ reinforce skills or recrystallisation and the technique of melting point determination. The amount of each compound should be the same because there is a 1:1 ratio between them. The purity of the synthesized aspirin was measured by determining
