Loggerheads also modify habitats as a result of their foraging activities. The fragments of hard-shelled organisms that loggerheads consume are either discarded or ingested and later deposited with feces at a different location. By reducing the particle size of the shells‚ loggerhead turtles contribute to nutrient recycling in benthic ecosystems by increasing the rate of shell disintegration. Additionally‚ a foraging behavior called infaunal mining has a significant effect on substrate characteristics

In the most simple form‚ FM digital synthesis consists of two sine waves. One is called the modulating wave and the other is called the carrier wave. The carrier wave is the only waveform that is audible. The modulating wave does just as it sounds‚ it modulates the amplitude of the carrier wave‚ and acts as a control value. The frequency of the modulating frequency controls the rate of change in the carrier wave; it controls how fast the modulation occurs in the carrier wave. And the amplitude of

Table 1. An infrared spectrum for the pure aspirin from the synthesis was taken by using crushed crystals‚ Figure 1. This spectrum was shown with different absorption bands corresponded with the functional groups of aspirin which was observed at frequencies > 1500 cm-1. These infrared frequencies were shown in Table 2. An infrared spectrum of an authentic aspirin was used to distinguish how authentic the infrared spectrum from the synthesis was shown in Figure 2 In this lab‚ aspirin was synthesized

Synthesis of benzilic acid from benzoin utilizing a multi-step reaction. Names: Arian Karim TA Name: Sayantan Das Lab Day & Time: Thursday 7:30-11:40 Lab Section #: Abstract The main purpose of this experiment was to synthesize benzilic acid from benzoin. This requires a multistep synthesis with benzyl as an intermediate product. The first step required HNO3 as an oxidizing agent and the second step required KOH and HCl. The percentage yields of benzil and benzilic acid were 59.5%

11/10/2012 History 283 The Fate of Montezuma’s Faith It’s almost comical how the factors of fortune would so boldly control the life of Montezuma Xocoyotzin. It would begin with his birth in the year 1467‚ which also coincided with the Aztec year ce acatl‚ or Quetzalcoatl‚ the Morning Star.1 The priests claimed on the day of his birth that he would be a future ruler and a high priest of infinite wisdom. 2 By 1502‚ Montezuma had fulfilled this prophecy as the leader of the Aztec empire‚ reclaiming

Regardless of the position in authority a person may have or how wise a person may consider himself‚ a Divine presence is inevitable in order for one to succeed. Sir Gawain and Everyman (translated by Burton Raffel) both took place during the Medieval Era‚ where these ideals were prevalent. Throughout both texts the main characters face issues that provide them understanding of how tremendous Gods’ blessing is when one humbles themselves before Him. The authors of both texts create a Biblical argument

Experiment 4 Synthesis of Salicylic Acid Introduction Throughout history‚ botanical extracts have been used as medicines. Approximately 30% of all medicines have a plant origin. This number increases to 60% if you consider medicines that at one time were derived from plants‚ but have been synthesized in the laboratory. Salicylic acid is a white crystalline compound that can be isolated from the bark of birch trees. Since it is a valuable substance that can be isolated from nature‚ it is called

Protein Synthesis Notes If DNA’s shape is altered it can’t function properly. RNA is more flexible so changing the shape changes the function‚ which is wanted. Any shape of RNA can become another. Three shapes/functions of RNA: -mRNA: messenger (linear_____) -rRNA: ribosomal (large and like a globe) More stable than mRNA. -tRNA: transfer (shaped like t) If you flatten this it becomes mRNA.
