Loggerheads also modify habitats as a result of their foraging activities. The fragments of hard-shelled organisms that loggerheads consume are either discarded or ingested and later deposited with feces at a different location. By reducing the particle size of the shells‚ loggerhead turtles contribute to nutrient recycling in benthic ecosystems by increasing the rate of shell disintegration. Additionally‚ a foraging behavior called infaunal mining has a significant effect on substrate characteristics

In the most simple form‚ FM digital synthesis consists of two sine waves. One is called the modulating wave and the other is called the carrier wave. The carrier wave is the only waveform that is audible. The modulating wave does just as it sounds‚ it modulates the amplitude of the carrier wave‚ and acts as a control value. The frequency of the modulating frequency controls the rate of change in the carrier wave; it controls how fast the modulation occurs in the carrier wave. And the amplitude of

Table 1. An infrared spectrum for the pure aspirin from the synthesis was taken by using crushed crystals‚ Figure 1. This spectrum was shown with different absorption bands corresponded with the functional groups of aspirin which was observed at frequencies > 1500 cm-1. These infrared frequencies were shown in Table 2. An infrared spectrum of an authentic aspirin was used to distinguish how authentic the infrared spectrum from the synthesis was shown in Figure 2 In this lab‚ aspirin was synthesized
