There has been much debate in recent years among politicians‚ military officials‚ and civilians on whether or not the U.S. should be fully withdrawn from Afghanistan‚ regardless of the country’s economic and military capabilities. There has also been a proposed timetable‚ which President Obama says is in effect and currently being executed‚ to have up to ninety percent of our military personnel out of the country by no later than 2014. It is imperative that we extract our forces out of Afghanistan

Extraction of DNA from Cheek Cells Gene Smith February 29th 2013 INTRODUCTION DNA‚ deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the genetic material of every living organism and is found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. DNA is often called the ‘blueprint for life’ because it contains the necessary information to carry out all the living processes of the cell (1).The purpose of this lab was to extract DNA from human cheek cells. The isolated DNA could be used inmapping or sequencing‚ PCR‚ crime scene investigation

concept of a conjugate acid-base pair. Using equilibrium law and K‚ explain the relationship between the strength of an acid/base and its conjugate. Conjugate Acid-Base Pair: Conjugate acids and bases were presented by Bronsted-Lowry‚ who was a chemist who proposed the theory that both acids and bases required the transfer of a proton in order for there to be a reaction. An acid will donate a proton (proton donor)‚ forming what is considered to be a conjugate base. When the base accepts a proton (proton

structures and properties of amino acids know the groups of amino acid What are amino acids? Amino acids are molecules that when combined with each other proteins. Amino acids contain a central tetrahedral carbon atom (α-carbon) amine group‚ carboxyl group‚ R-side chain The R-side chain determines the different amino acids There are 20 common amino acids Amino acids can join via peptide bonds Several amino acids occur only rarely in proteins Some amino acids are not found in proteins 3D

Acid-Base Titrations 6-3: Concepts in Acid-Base Titrations Titrations provide a method of quantitatively measuring the concentration of an unknown solution. In an acid-base titration‚ this is done by delivering a titrant of known concentration into an analyte of known volume. (The concentration of an unknown titrant can also be determined by titration with an analyte of known concentration and volume.) Titration curves (graphs of volume vs. pH) have characteristic shapes. The graph can be used

Acid-Base Balance and Fluids and Electrolytes Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation Date Due Respiratory Acidosis Respiratory acidosis refers to a medical defect in which hypoventilation occurs leading to increased concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood and decreased level of pH. Decreased pH in the blood is generally known as acidosis. The body cells continuously respire and release carbon dioxide. The lungs may fail to efficiently expel the CO2. This condition is known as alveolar

OF DETTOL ANTISEPTIC LIQUID ON THE GROWTH OF E.COLI Background: Escherichia coli are rod shaped‚ gram negative bacteria often found in the gut of humans and other warm-blooded mammals (Jacques & Ngo‚ 2004). It is transmitted primarily through faecal contaminated food and water. Most strains of E. coli are not harmful to humans‚ however some strains are pathogenic and can cause symptoms including diarrhoea (Unknown‚ 2012). The active ingredient in Dettol Antiseptic Liquid is 4.8% chloroxylenol
