CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION Natural rubber is produced by over 2000 plants species and its main constituent is poly (cis-I‚4-isoprene).a highly unsaturated hydrocarbon. Since 1914 there have been efforts to investigate microbial rubber degradation: However‚ only recently have the first proteins involved in this process have been identified and characterized and have the corresponding genes cloned. Analysis of the degradation product of natural rubber and synthetic rubbers isolated from various

Natural selection‚ a process that has long been essential to survival‚ suggests that those who can adapt to environmental change will likely be able to more successfully survive‚ and hence procreate‚ over time. When considering the impact of natural selection in relation to our modern human race‚ we can argue that discoveries in science means we have many fewer actual “predators” of concern when it comes to survival. Access to food‚ regulation of our shelters‚ and medical advancements are but a

Illiwa Baldwin CH 202.1305 Jeff Auer March 5 2012 Comparisons of the Natural World Up until the 17th Century‚ an understanding of the natural world and how it operates was very limited and the general consensus was that there was God‚ and all things were created by him in a hierarchical order that sustained the balance of man. Although these Gods varied between ethnicities and religions‚ the general idea of a creator is consistent. However‚ with the extent of experiences and experimentation

Preface Bangladesh is largely ethnically homogeneous. Indeed‚ its name derives from the Bengali ethno-linguistic group‚ which comprises 98% of the population. Bengalis‚ who also predominate in the West Bengal province of India‚ are one of the most populous ethnic groups in the world. Variations in Bengali culture and language do exist of course. There are many dialects of Bengali spoken throughout the region. The dialect spoken by those in Chittagong and Sylhet are particularly

Natural Selection is when organisms show variations of traits‚ but it keeps the beneficial traits and gets rid of the bad traits. More organisms are born than can survive in this world‚ which causes a struggle to live. Some traits are beneficial in the struggle. Organisms that have those beneficial traits are more likely to survive and successfully reproduce. When they reproduce they will pass the good traits on to the next generation to give the next generation. The good traits will build up while

Natural and sexual selection One of the first and central mechanisms proposed by Darwin during his life was that of "natural selection." Some may refer to this as "survival of the fittest‚" whereby species that produce offspring have been successful in doing so because they have produced random individual features which have lead them to live longer and pro-create offspring with the same inheritable desired features. Not all individuals will be able to reproduce‚ therefore only the fittest will "multiply

conservation of natural resources conservation of natural resources‚ the wise use of the earth’s resources by humanity. The term conservation came into use in the late 19th cent. and referred to the management‚ mainly for economic reasons‚ of such valuable natural resources as timber‚ fish‚ game‚ topsoil‚ pastureland‚ and minerals‚ and also to the preservation of forests‚ wildlife‚ parkland‚ wilderness‚ and watershed areas. In recent years the science of ecology has clarified the workings of the biosphere;
