Ireland suffered greatly during the potato famine in the 1840s. Around one million people died of starvation or disease. Many immigrated to the United States to try to escape the horrid that surrounded them in Ireland.Food was considered the most deadly weapon in a war. Starvation was the leading cause of death in a war. If you had control of the food supply‚ your army had the greater advantage. Your enemies would most likely fall from starvation‚ enviably you would win. Food also gave the soldiers

RESISTANCE AND EMF OF A BATTERY CELL DCP ASPECT 1 SYMBOLS: Internal resistance of the battery: r External variable resistor: R Voltage: V EMF of the battery: E Current: I FORMULA V= IR E = I (R+r) E = IR +I ⋅ r E = V + I ⋅ r V = E - I ⋅ r V = -r ⋅ I +E _Graph of V against I will be plotted in order to_ _determine the internal resistance and EMF of the battery. The slope will be -r and the intercept vertical axis will be the EMF (E)._ REFERENCE VALUE EMF of the battery 1. 490 ± 0.001V

Investigating the Water Potential Of Potato Cells Aims 1. To test how water potential‚ in a solution‚ affects the movement of water in and out of a cell by osmosis Prediction I predict that by increasing the water potential around the outside of the potato cell‚ (i.e. so that the water potential is greater outside the cell compared to the inside of the cell e.g. 0m sucrose) that the net movement of water into the cell will increase. This is due to the water potential being greater outside the cell

An experiment was carried out at the Horticulture Farm‚ Bangladesh Agricultural University‚ Mymensingh during 1998-99 growing season to study the effect of nitrogen and plant spacing on the growth and yield of potato (var. Diamant). Different nitrogen levels viz. 0‚ 127.0‚ 190.5 and 254.0 kg N/ha significantly influenced plant height‚ foliage coverage‚ number of main stem per hill‚ days required for 80% maturity of the crop‚ fresh weight of haulm (g/hill)‚ number of tubers per hill‚ weight of tubers

The cause and factors of the Irish potato famine have puzzled Biologists for many years. Biologists have known that it was a strain of phytoptharainfestants that destroyed Ireland’s potato crops as well as northern Europe’s during the 1800’s. Several determined

Over the last couple of years many people have wondered if battery electric vehicles (BEV’s) would soon take over the streets and pushout gas powered cars and if it would be a good idea. People should drive BEV’s instead of gas powered cars because they are better in many aspects. In this paper I will explain why it would be a good idea for you to buy a BEV by showing the benefits on your wallet‚ tax incentives and rewards from the government‚ and finishing with the effect on the environment.
