CHAPTER 3 Response surface methodology 3.1 Introduction Response surface methodology (RSM) is a collection of mathematical and statistical techniques for empirical model building. By careful design of experiments‚ the objective is to optimize a response (output variable) which is influenced by several independent variables (input variables). An experiment is a series of tests‚ called runs‚ in which changes are made in the input variables in order to identify the reasons for changes in

Structure of Gaseous Exchange Surfaces in Humans‚ Fish‚ Insects and Frogs Gaseous Exchange is a biological process where oxygen diffuses into the body or bloodstream and carbon dioxide diffuses out of the body or blood stream. This process is different for Humans‚ Fish. Frogs and Insects. Humans: In humans the gas exchange system is known as the Respiratory system.

Activities such as construction‚ transportation‚ building dams and canals‚ and mining can disturb the earths materials. As more and more people overdevelop the land becomes less stable. Deforestation is another cause for landslides. Humans keep cutting down more trees‚ when this happens the land becomes more susceptible to heavy rains and floods which make
