Title Antimicrobial properties in different type of plants. Introduction A substance that kills or prevents the growth of microorganisms for example bacteria‚ fungi or protozoans is called an antimicrobial. This substance has 2 major roles which are to either kill microbes (microbiocidal) or prevent the growth of microbes (microbiostatic). Disinfectants are antimicrobial substances used on non-living objects outside the body. This substance included antibiotics‚ antifungals‚ antiprotozoals and

Social Experiment Paper The Milgram’s Experiment The Milgram’s Experiment was conducted by Social psychology by the name of Stanley Milgram‚ he created this experiment on how being in the presents of an authority figures would affect the way people behaved. This study was conducted in July 1969‚ just one year after the trial of Eichmann in Jerusalem. Milgram developed this experiment to answer the question "Could it be that Eichmann and his millions

The Milgram experiment even though it was a hoax had a lasting effects on many of it’s participants in both positive and negative ways and is a example of why humans should not be used as test subjects. The Milgram experiment was conducted by Stanley Milgram a assistant professor of psychology at Yale. The experiment wanted to

English 10a 6 March 2012 Tuskegee Experiments This is possibly one of the most inhumane things to ever happen in the 20th century in the Untied States. The experiments that took place were the root of medical misconduct and blatant disregard for human rights that took place in the name of science. The ghastly medical expirements that took place between 1932 and 1972 was merely an observation of the different stages of syphilis. The men in these experiments for the most part were illiterate

Individual Project Unit 2 Experiments In this individual project we were asked to conduct three experiments. The three experiments I chose to conduct were Experiment 1‚ Experiment 2‚ and Experiment 4. I have documented my findings for the experiments that were done. In Experiment 1‚ I was to rub my index finger gently over a piece of very coarse sandpaper for a few times. Then‚ I was to rate its coarseness on a scale from 1 (very soft) to 7 (very coarse)

Describe the physiological approach to the study of the mind. Explain how Donders experiment can be repeated in a modern laboratory using the physiological approach to the study of the mind Donder’s work attempts to describe the processes going on in the mind‚ by analyzing cognitive activity into separate stages. Until Donder’s work‚ many scientists had assumed that the mental operations involved in responding to a stimulus occurred instantaneously. Donder was particularly interested in "timing

This part of the experiment yielded an exothermic reaction. The purpose was to calculate the specific heat capacity and molar mass of the zinc metal. The specific heat capacity was found to be 0.197 J/g °C with a percent error of -49.5%. The molar mass was found to be 127 g/mol with a percent error of 94.2%. Possible sources of error inherent to this segment of the experiment were the fact that when the temperature of the solution was being measured
