impactful waves of immigration to the United States occurred as a result of the Irish Potato Famine. The famine occurred due to failure of Ireland’s potato crop in 1945 through 1949 (Mokyr 1). Although the famine lasted four years‚ its effects can still be seen in the United States. The influx of Irish immigrants served as the backbone of the industrializing United States and forever changed the nation. Despite the Irish Potato Famine’s impact on the United States‚ it could have been avoided if other nations

Ireland was a country of poverty and nearly half of the families in rural areas were living in mud houses with no windows or furniture. According to the Constitutional Rights Foundation‚ Ireland was not an industrialized

EVALUATION OF NEWLY RECOMMENDED SWEET POTATO VARIETIES UNDER COCONUT BY NELSIE MODINA FERNANDEZ Abstract This study was conducted to evaluate the growth and yield performance of different sweet potato varieties grown under coconut‚ and to determine which variety of sweet potato would perform best under coconut. Among the agronomic characteristics measured‚ only herbage yield differed significantly among sweet potato varieties and was lowest in PSB-Sp 16. Based on ocular observation‚ this might

In this study‚ three general media will be used for the detection of microorganisms on the equipment‚ personnel‚ raw materials and the finished goods. These are Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA)‚ Plate Count Agar (PCA) and Violet Red Bile Agar (VRBA) under the Univar brand. The amount of each prepared medium or dehydrated medium depends on the number of samples to be tested. PDA is usually used for the presence of yeasts

Effect of Temperature ( C ͦ) on Enzyme Catalase Activity in potato Aim: To investigate the Effect of temperature (10‚ 37‚ 60) Celsius (C ͦ) on enzyme catalase activity in potato using 2% of hydrogen peroxide (H202) as the substrate measuring the height (cm) of oxygen gas (bubbles) and calculating the volume of oxygen bubbles produced (cm3) Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up metabolic reactions without being affected. They lower the activation energy needed to start

Sweet Potato Pie Eugenia Collier From up here on the fourteenth floor‚ my brother Charley looks like an insect scurrying among other insects. A deep feeling of love surges through me. Despite the distance‚ he seems to feel it‚ for he turns and scans the upper windows‚ but failing to find me‚ continues on his way. I watch him moving quickly—gingerly‚ it seems to me—down Fifth Avenue and around the corner to his shabby taxicab. In a moment he will be heading back uptown. I turn from the window

Experiment to Investigate Osmosis in Potatoes The aim of this experiment is to investigate the movement of water in and out of plant cells. The cells chosen for study will be taken from potato tubers. Firstly I will explain what osmosis is. Osmosis is the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration. This definition contains three important statements: a) It is the passage of water through a semi permeable membrane
