in fever. It leads to less absorption of nutrients in the body from food. TYPES OF FEVER Continuous/short duration fever: Such fever is acute but short in duration. Temperature remains above normal throughout the day and does not fluctuate more than 1 °C in 24 hours‚ e.g. lobar pneumonia‚ typhoid‚ urinary tract infection. Intermittent fever: Such fever occurs only in intervals. The temperature elevation is present only for a certain period‚ later cycling back to normal. e.g. malaria‚ kala-azar

The transfer of trace elements between soil and plant is part of chemical element cycling in the nature. The mobility and availability of trace elements are controlled by many factor of Climatic‚ biological and geochemical origins in nature. That means‚ to predict the uptake of trace elements by plants from soil it is important to look at several biotic and abiotic parameters the affect and control the behavior of elements in the soil. The risk to environment and human health of a given trace metals

Village The rainstorm was over‚ I dashed out from the house to free myself. Spending hours in the house really made me feel bored rigid (extremely bored). I needed fresh air and so I went for a ride in the neighbourhood of Bukit Katil. I enjoyed cycling along the roads that ran parallel with rows of tall trees. The atmosphere around me was refreshingly cool. In the midst of admiring view‚ I caught the sight of a house that was partly buried in the mud. I halted (stop) and looked at the house

Within Canada‚ approximately ten forest regions exist‚ four of which occupy Ontario. These four forest regions include the Hudson Bay Lowlands‚ the Boreal Forest‚ the Great Lakes- St. Lawrence Forest‚ and the Deciduous Forest. Each of these forest regions possess various characteristics that make each unique and diverse. Currently in Ontario‚ there exists several varieties of forest regions. The Hudson Bay Lowland Forest “stretches from the northern edge of the Canadian Shield northward to the

American Prairies: Change in Ecosystem Structure and Function Introduction Stretching approximately two million acres of land‚ the North American Prairies cover a large portion of the continent. From Montana to Oklahoma to Colorado and to the provinces of Alberta‚ Manitoba‚ and Saskatchewan in Canada‚ the Great Plains‚ having moderate temperatures and suitable rainfall conditions‚ provide a valuable resource to society. Due to the expanse of land and the varying habitats within the prairies ecosystem

Investigation 2: How and why do microclimates vary between coniferous and deciduous woodland areas in the Bon Nant Valley? Hypothesis 1: There will be a significant difference in air and ground temperature in deciduous and coniferous woodlands in the Bon Nant Valley Null hypothesis: There will be no difference in air and ground temperature in deciduous and coniferous woodlands in the Bon Nant Valley I believe that this hypothesis will be proved correct as coniferous and deciduous woodlands

Surface tension is high because water molecules stick together‚ and have ability to attract molecules of surface in contact. This is important in accumulation of non-polar organic compound on the surface layer‚ which could be used as source of nutrients for microorganisms. With these characteristics of water‚ aquatic systems are more resistant to extreme environmental fluctuations. However‚ such water properties can be modified by the presence of dissolved substances. Aquatic environments are classified
