Alberta Tar Sands Sustainability Report Introduction Tar sands are a combination of clay‚ sand‚ water‚ and bitumen. As a type of unconventional petroleum deposit‚ tar sands are found in many places worldwide‚ the largest deposits are found in Alberta‚ Canada. The Alberta tar sand deposits contain more than 70.8% of the world ’s reserves of natural bitumen which representing 40% of the world’s combined extra-heavy crude oil and crude bitumen reserves. It is the only bitumen deposits that are economically

Photosynthesis Experiment Introduction Photosynthesis is a process used by plants‚ making inorganic molecules into organic molecules (food) using sunlight. Carbon dioxide + Water (mainly from rain) Glucose + Oxygen From this process‚ carbon dioxide comes from environment. Glucose‚ as a product is used to make energy for growth. Lastly‚ the oxygen is a waste product in this chemical reaction‚ which become part of the Earth’s atmosphere. At this experiment‚ carbon dioxide and water

Quartz crusher is crushing machine used for quartz sand‚ glass production line. SBM provides quartz crushers‚ gravel crushers for quartz crushing‚ grinding. The quartzite principal constituent may be the quartz‚ such as ceramics‚ cement‚ glass‚ the optical fiber and so forth. A very large amount associated with quartz‚ which prompted the establishment of a lot of quartz quarry. Quartz sand is the important artificial sand used in construction building. In quartzite quarry‚ we can use quartz crushing

Seth Dennison and Jenna Snyder John Bryan Psychology of Gender 104 10/31/2012 Psychological Gender Experiment For our psychological gender experiment we chose to focus on the topic of memory differences between genders. At first we wanted to figure out if one gender had a better memory than the other‚ but then we also wanted to observe whether or not their memory showed better results when the objects were related to their gender. Therefore‚ the hypothesis we constructed was: If

The wheelchair experiment introduced me to a world that I have never known. I have never been in a wheelchair or been affected by any form of hearing‚ visual‚ or physical disabilities. So‚ this experiment caused me to really think about how the layout of a space‚ weight of doors‚ etc. could affect someone. While using the wheelchair‚ I felt as if I was in the spotlight every time I entered a room or crossed paths with a group of individuals. People would look on as I posed in the wheelchair and give

Should we use animals for experiments? (against) The question is‚what it means to use animals for experiments? It means‚ the investigators and doctors whose are producing medicines they have to test is first‚somehow‚to see how is the effect of the medicine.This “somehow” means the animals.Moreover I haven’t said anything about testing new products like cosmetic products‚make-ups‚sprays. In my opinion‚the animals are different‚they body and organism are different.For this reason the scientists

The purpose of this experiment was to test the tonicity of potato cells. The potato cells were placed in different test tubes with water and were left there for 15 minutes. The percent change in mass is then used to determine if the cells lost or gained water‚ therefore determining the tonicity of the cell. Although it was a brief short time‚ the final results showed that the more water the potatoes were placed in‚ the more hypotonic the potato becomes. Tonicity is stated to be the state of a solution

Purpose: How will salt and plain water affect plant cells? Hypothesis Clear water: If you place carrots and celery in plain water they will become flaccid and then eventually start to loose its colour and pieces of the celery or carrots will fall off. I know this because the vegetables will continue absorbing water putting the vegetable in a hypotonic solution. Pieces of the vegetable could break off because the cells are not getting what they need. The cells need to create glucose and oxygen
