Enduring conspiracy theories aside‚ the 1969 moon landing (above) was a rousing success for the government space program known as NASA. After a decade-long space race‚ during which it seemed to all observers that the Soviets had the edge‚ the U.S. landed Apollo 11–carrying Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin–at the Sea of Tranquility on July 20‚ 1969. Nixon was president‚ the Vietnam War and its opposition raged‚ and Leonid Brezhnev helmed a stagnant Soviet empire. On the great list of Cold War what-ifs

believe that crime at light rail station does not exist. Light rail station crime has risen due to security not being present or performing their job duties. Security are placed on platforms to help riders to get to their destination safely.Security has reduce the intensity to perform their duties as a security guard‚ and this is a major issue. Charlotte light rails was first built in 2007‚ Charlotte Mecklenburg public transportation hired 200 security officers to run the 9.6 mile light rail from morning

Based off the results from this lab the student was able to determine and have an overall better understanding of the variables that affect the rate of photosynthesis in a plant. The first variable the student tested in the lab was 30cm of light with CO2 present. The student started this trial with all 10-leaf disks and timed how many leaf disks came up every minute for 15 minutes. One minute into the trial and the student recorded that no leaf disks had yet to rise to the top of the solution. At

determining the spectrum of light each absorbs. By using paper chromatography‚ different pigments of spinach leaves can be separated. The knowledge gained in this experiment is relevant to understanding how the process of photosynthesis works. A Real-world application for this includes the harvesting of clean energy sources‚ as scientific advances have led the way to artificial photosynthesis on the path to replace fossil fuels (Nath‚ 237). Photosynthesis converts light received from the sun into

My analysis focused on our second largest discipline‚ Computer Science. Biological Sciences (my discipline) is the largest‚ but I started with this one so that I could look at the data with fresh eyes‚ and also because it’s got some really cool papers to talk about. Here’s what I found: What I found was a fascinating list of topics‚ with many of the expected fundamental papers like Shannon’s Theory of Information and the Google paper‚ a strong showing from Mapreduce and machine learning‚ but also

An alternative light bulb which is designed to lessen the consumption of electricity Florescent light bulbs are oftenly used for light in houses But sometimes the light bulb became wrought and because we think electricity is too expensive‚ We create an alternative light bulb using everyday materials. In this experiment‚ we will try to replace light bulbs with alternatives and cheaper replacements. In this investigatory project the group will try to make a plastic bottle light bulb.

Salmonella [pic] Image from: http://www.healthhype.com/wpcontent/uploads/Prokaryote_cell_diagram_bacterial_structure.png 1. Describe the structure of the micro-organism Salmonella is a miniature bacterium which is rod shaped. It has diameters of around 0.7 to 1.5 µm‚ lengths from 2 to 5 µm‚ and flagella that flow in all directions. They are chemoorganotrophs (a primary nutritional group)‚ getting their energy from oxidation (the interaction between oxygen molecules and other substances)

Rf values using the collected data‚ and study photosynthesis with isolated chloroplasts. Light energy Light energy Background Information (Activity A): In photosynthesis‚ plant cells convert light energy into chemical energy that is stored in sugars and other organic compounds. It is an endergonic and anaerobic reaction. Critical to the process is chlorophyll‚ the primary photosynthetic pigment in chloroplasts. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is: 36 ATP + 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6

Bright light has been considered a sex signal in the animal kingdom‚ and it seems we are no different. Studies have been made where it was found that glow worms that had the brightest tail were the most attractive to males and were more likely to lay more eggs. New research published in the Journal of Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics suggests that bright light therapy may improve sex drive and treat sex disorders in humans. This Wouldn’t Be The First Study It has been observed in several studies
