purpose of this lab was to see if radiation has an effect on the cultivated radish seeds that we used. From the observed data that we collected‚ we were able to conclude that when seeds are exposed to radiation‚ it affects how they grow‚ if there is any growth at all. Introduction Radiation is an important environmental abiotic factor for plants‚ and one small section of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum‚ is called the Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR)‚ provides the energy to

Primary radiation is also known as direct radiation. * Secondary Radiation (aka Scatter radiation & Leakage Radiaiton) * Scatter Radiation – results whenever a diagnostic x-ray beam passes through matter. * Compton interactions between the x-ray photons and the electrons of the atoms within attenuating object deflect x-ray photons from their initial trajectories. * X-ray photons emerge from the object in all direction. * Leakage Radiation – radiation generated

The Dangers of Physiological Diagnosis Author: Ljupco Duzlevski Student Number: 500457454 In the new field of psychiatry there are conflicting beliefs when it comes to diagnosis of a mental illness. In its infancy‚ in the nineteen-sixties‚ diagnosis was made difficult based on the different criteria used by each professional. (Spiegel‚ 2005) This changed with the invention of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)‚ which gave all doctors a checklist of criteria

The Path of Respiratory Therapy Introduction About a year ago‚ I came home from work one night and walked into the kitchen to where my mother was standing. There was a feeling of uneasiness and the panic began to clench my stomach. She looked so sad‚ so stressed; maybe it was the frizzy hair‚ the bags beneath her eyes‚ the way her back slouched in a low negative curve‚ or her eyes. Her eyes looked at me before she turned them away‚ but in that fragment of a second‚ it’s almost like I could look

Examining diagnosis After examining the situation‚ I understand that my discomfort comes from the conflict between the behavior of the agency workers and the code of ethics the NASW has provided. The code of ethics is big on human dignity and respect as well as confidentiality and self-determination I feel that in this situation all three were compromised. By speaking out against someone while they’re not around to defend their selves you do not give them self-determination or respect and dignity

The Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation Perhaps the most conclusive (and certainly among the most carefully examined) piece of evidence for the Big Bang is the existence of an isotropic radiation bath that permeates the entire Universe known as the "cosmic microwave background" (CMB). The word "isotropic" means the same in all directions; the degree of anisotropy of the CMB is about one part in a thousand. In 1965‚ two young radio astronomers‚ Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson‚ almost accidentally

Blackbody radiation: a spectroscopic study John Greavu Partner: Nicholas Souhleris TA: Yilikal Ayino (Friday‚ Section 006) April 18‚ 2014 I. PRELAB A blackbody is a body that absorbs all electromagnetic radiation and emits a continuous spectrum‚ such as heated cavern with just a small opening to the outside world. In 1900‚ German physicist Max Planck derived an expression for this blackbody spectrum. Knowing that oscillators emit radiation‚ he assumed that oscillators within the cavern were
