Germany. These men started using mammography for the diagnosis and evaluation of breast cancer. With this popularity of mammography came vast improvements with technology. Before 1969‚ many machines were not designed for imaging exclusively breast tissue. For example‚ imaging units from the past were comprised of tungsten targets‚ which were primarily used for imaging anatomy that required relatively higher doses of radiation. These units also worked off of a large focal spot which decreases the detail

CONNECTIVE TISSUE (SPECIALIZED) I. Abstract In this experiment‚ identification and classification of different types of connective tissue was performed. Also‚ cells and extracellular matrix was to be identified in them. For this‚ different already prepared slides were chosen and observed under the microscope to then identify the different parts. II.

With all the information presented in this article I find it extremely unethical to use fetuses from voluntary abortions to assist in medical care. In 1988 there was an experiment done on a 52-year-old man with Parkinson’s disease. They implanted fetal brain cells in his brain. He reported an improvement in his ability to walk and speak.

Chapter 37: Water and sugar transport in plants Water moves from areas of high water potential to areas of low water potential. Water’s potential energy in plants is a combination of (1) it’s tendency to move in response to differences in solute concentration and (2) the pressure exerted on it Plants do not expend energy to replace water that is lost to transpiration when stomata are open and photosynthesis is occurring. Instead‚ water moves from soil and roots to leaves long a water potential
