Assignment 4: Bataan Nuclear Power Plant The Bataan Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP) is located in Morong‚ Bataan and was constructed under the administration of President Ferdinand Ferdinand Marcos during the Martial Law period. Westinghouse was contracted to build the light water reactor‚ deign to produce 621 megawatts of electricity. This power plant was constructed under loan $600 million for two units but controversially it ballooned up to $2.3 billion. After The Marcos’ was thrown to Hawaii‚ the

Introduction A melon is any of various plants of the family Cucurbitaceae with edible‚ fleshy fruit. The word "melon" can refer to either the plant or specifically to the fruit. Many different cultivars have been produced‚ particularly of muskmelons. Although the melon is a botanical fruit (specifically‚ a berry)‚ some varieties may be considered vegetables rather than fruits. The word melon derives from Latin melopepo‚ which is the latinization of the Greek μηλοπέπων (mēlopepon)‚ meaning "melon"

Plant and animal cells have several differences and similarities. For example‚ animal cells do not have a cell wall or chloroplasts but plant cells do. Animal cells are round and irregular in shape while plant cells have fixed‚ rectangular shapes. Animal Cell Plant Cell Cell wall Absent Present (formed of cellulose) Shape Round (irregular shape) Rectangular (fixed shape) Vacuole One or more small vacuoles (much smaller than plant cells).

Someting About Feldspar Crusher Feldspar will be the most common rock forming mineral. Feldspar occurs in igneous‚ metamorphic and sedimentary rocks and consequently could be observed all through the state. Applications of feldspar Feldspar is used to create dinnerware and bathroom and creating tiles. In ceramics and glass production‚ feldspar is used as being a flux. A flux can be a material that lowers the melting temperature of another materials‚ in this case‚ glass. The feldspar crusher

The Effect of Gasoline Fumes on plants Introduction: This science fair project was conducted to study the effect of gasoline fumes on plants. The testing was done by placing plants beside a gasoline-filled container for different periods of time and temperatures. Hypothesis: Gasoline fumes cause plants to die - the longer the exposure to the fumes‚ the quicker the plants will die. Our second hypothesis is that exposure to fumes‚ at higher environmental temperatures‚ will result in quicker

An “Automatic Plant Watering System”.Automated plant watering system is a self-running watering system for plants which are very ideal for small group of gardeners and farmers. The Automatic watering System is mainly developed to run by its own‚ with a minimal supervision of human where it can control the water amount automatically and reduces the work load of an individual. The primary objective of the system is to supply the entire plant area uniformly with water‚ so that each plant has provided

intentionally. The constructions of dams have also been postponed due to political matters so we have also failed to produce hydro power. And due to lack of investment and failing in maintenance in the existing independent power plants (IPP) is now resulting in outdated power plants and they are producing lesser MWs as days go by. All this maybe because of we are facing losses due to rampant electricity theft and its not being controlled. Analysts say that line losses have gone upto 30-40 percent. According

Functions and structure of plant terpenes Terpenes are an enormous class of organic compounds‚ that are produced by a wide variety of plants and fungi‚ especially conifers. Terpenes are also produced by some of the living organisms‚ like swallowtail butterflies. They emit terpenes from their osmeterium. Terpenes are important materials for a plant as components of its body and as a material to protect it from external enemies since it has a strong smell and colorless. Terpenes are found in biological

similarities between plant and animal cells are as follows: 1. Both are constructed from eukaryotic cells. 2. Both contain a defined nucleus. 3. Both have mitochondria. 4. Both have Golgi bodies. 5. Both are surrounded by a cell membrane. Three differences are: 1. Plants cells have a cell wall‚ whereas animal cells do not. 2. Animal cells have lysosomes‚ whereas plant cells do not. 3. Animal cells contain centrioles and a cytoskeleton‚ whereas most plants do not. Five
