To become infected individuals breathe in microscopic Coccidioid fungal spores in the air. Although the majority of individuals who breathe in the spores do not get sick‚ there are several facts about valley fever that everyone should know. The fungus Coccidioid

The objective of the lab was to learn about fracture mechanics. Fracture mechanics is the branch of structural mechanics that deals with mechanical behaviors of bodies containing flaws. Some important attributes of flaws are size‚ shape‚ and location/orientation relative to the stress field. Procedure: The primary tools for the lab consisted of 10 ceramic tiles and a Instron machine. The Instron machine was initially set up for 3-point bending by a technician. The base and thickness of the tile

Activity 1 1. Increasing extracellular K+ reduces the net diffusion of K+ out of the neuron through the K+ leak channels because the membrane is permeable to K+ ions. Therefore‚ the K+ ions will diffuse down its concentration gradient from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. 2. Increasing extracellular K+ causes the membrane potential to change to a less negative value because the K+ ions diffuse out across the membrane. My results went well compared to my prediction
