    The Boiling Frog Theory on Population Systems thinkers have given us a useful metaphor for a certain kind of human behavior in the phenomenon of the boiled frog. The phenomenon is this. If you drop a frog in a pot of boiling water‚ it will of course frantically try to clamber out. But if you place it gently in a pot of tepid water and turn the heat on low‚ it will float there quite placidly. As the water gradually heats up‚ the frog will sink into a tranquil stupor‚ exactly like one of us in a

    Investigation into how the focal length of a lens affects the temperature at the focal point Research & Rationale: In my project I will be looking in to how different lenses with varying thicknesses and therefore focal points magnify and intensify light passing through it. To do this I will be measuring the temperature of an object behind the lens‚ at the focal point. The study and research of lenses was not part of the course this year‚ so I thought it would be more interesting to study a new

    What effect does temperature have on the oxygen production of enzymes in an animal’s liver? A temperature which is too high would be able to produce little to no oxygen because of the extreme temperature. Just like a temperature too high‚ a temperature which is too low would also produce little to no oxygen for the same reason. Animals that have livers are considered warm-blooded‚ with very warm temperatures; therefore it would make sense for a warm temperature to produce the most oxygen; but one

    Investigation Into Temperature Sensors Introduction In this project I will be investigating how it is possible to use a temperature sensor to keep a greenhouse from changing temperature too much. This is intended to help plants live and grow in their optimum temperature. This will create a perfect temperature for the enzymes in the plants to work in‚ and therefore resulting in a maximum growth/production rate. This could be useful for gardeners who wish to grow plants as quickly as possible

    And while their experiments were real‚ the Boiling Frog Syndrome developed into a widespread didactic anecdote of subordinating‚ ignoring or neglecting the appearance of innocuous environmental phenomena leading to subsequent peril. Strictly speaking‚ it considers a cautionary tale about falling prey

    Over the centuries‚ immigration has benefited the United States for the use of slavery‚ but what about for the economy or just the country itself? The US has been given the name‚ “The Boiling Pot‚” because we have a lot of different races combined into one country. Have you ever wondered how the boiling pot could’ve just been some scrap metal if immigrants hadn’t come into the United States and built it a little? Some people think that immigrants just want to steal our jobs‚ but do they really? Maybe

    Heat and Temperature Heat is often described by the average individual as being the change in temperature from hot to cold. “Often the concepts of heat and temperature are thought to be the same‚ but they are not.” Heat and Temperature‚ para. 2) Perhaps the reasoning behind the incorrect reasoning is that humans associate the two together because when heat is applied to an object the temperature rises. The kinetic theory of matter better explains the underlying cause as to what takes place

    The Aim of this practical was to observe what effect temperature had on the permeability of the cell membrane. Introduction Located within the vacuole of beetroot cells is a red pigment call Betalains. Typically these pigments are contained within the cell vacuole by the tonoplast (vacuole membrane)‚ however When beetroot is heated these red pigments escape the vacuole. This experiment aims to explore the effect of temperature on the permeability of the cell membranes (i.e. Tonoplast)

    AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED FAN H ere is a circuit through which the speed of a fan can be linearly controlled automatically‚ depending on the room temperature. The circuit is highly efficient as it uses thyristors for power control. Alternatively‚ the same circuit can be used for automatic temperature controlled AC power control. In this circuit‚ the temperature sensor used is an NTC thermistor‚ i.e. one having a negative temperature coefficient. The value of thermistor resistance at
