Heat exhaustion and heatstroke As days slowly begin to heat up it is important to stay cool and keep hydrated across the screaming scorching sun. Summer time usually means longer days and if you live close to the equator you know about the 100+ degree weather that comes with it. Without the proper precautions you could easily fall to heat exhaustion or far worse a heat stroke. Athletes are more prone to this type of sudden illnesses because of the constant running and exercise they do on a daily

Overall‚ the Venus suggests that women were important. They were essential to life and survival because child bearing capabilities ensured the survival of the people.

Research Summary Heat stroke is defined by Knochel and Ouchama (2002‚ p. 1978) as “a core body temperature that rises above 40°C (105°F) and that is accompanied by hot‚ dry skin and central nervous system abnormalities such as delirium‚ convulsions‚ or coma.” Heat stroke can be the result of either exposure to a high environmental temperature or from an elevated core temperature due to strenuous exercise. However‚ due to the presentation of an ‘unconscious unknown’ the diagnosis of heat stroke can be

Swine Heat Stress ABSTRACT The purpose of this research project is to identify the effects of heat stress on swine. Heat stress is physiological distress caused by excessive temperatures usually over 80-85 degrees Fahrenheit that can result in profoundly adverse effects in swine production. The first phase of this project involves the analysis of these harmful effects on sows‚ gilts‚ and boars. Multiple journal articles will be used to establish these effects. The final phase involves

Specific Heat Lab Objective: Find the specific heat of the unknown metal given using calorimetry. Background Theory: In every reaction‚ energy is transferred between a system and its environment. A system encompasses the substances that are involved in a reaction‚ and everything else in the universe other than the system is called the environment. The standard SI unit of energy is Joules (J). Temperature is the level of excitement of the atoms in a substance. In most cases‚ energy is

Ten Minutes of Specific Heat Remi Adams East Rowan High School AP Environmental Science Abstract Specific heat and climate were the primary focus of this lab. Specific heat is defined as “the measure of the ability of a substance to change temperature”. The purpose for carrying out this lab was to determine the specific heat/rates of both soil and water‚ and then comparing them. Students also were to relate specific heat to climate. Students were to determine which substance expressed
