The Irish Potato Famine occurred in Ireland in 1845 to 1849‚ when the potato harvest failed. A disease that destroys the edible parts of potato plants known as Late Blight caused the unsuccessful crop. The Irish Potato Famine was the worst famine to occur in Europe in the 19th century. Almost fifty percent of the Irish population had become dependent on potatoes in their diet‚ but the entire population consumed the crop in large quantities‚ especially the rural and the poor. The Potato was very susceptible

of juice. For example‚ Rachel* and Lacey* thought that drinks from juice bars such as Jamba Juice and Robeks were very high in calories. As a result these people saw these brands of juice as meal supplements. One person we interviewed thought that Jamba Juice was the best juice out there and did not have a preference to juices sold in supermarkets. One of the things this consumer liked about Jamba Juice was the atmosphere because it made him feel healthier. Other consumers found brand juices to be

The Activity of a Protease (Trypsin) Introduction Enzymes catalyze reactions by creating alternate reaction mechanisms whose transition states are more thermodynamically stable than uncatalyzed reactions (Berg et al.‚ 2002; UBC Department of Microbiology and Immunology‚ 2006). Increased thermodynamic stability in these transition states reduces the energy of activation‚ the minimum amount of energy input a chemical system requires for a reaction to occur (UBC Department of Microbiology

pH Affecting on Amylase Enzyme Is there a difference in the concentration of pH in the amylase enzyme activity? The null hypothesis would be that there will be no difference in the concentration of pH and alternative hypothesis would be that there will be a difference in the concentration of pH. The predication if that there will be a difference in the concentration of pH. The pH affects on enzyme activities‚ one of the enzyme that was used in the process was amylase.

analyzed the global warming that has occurred since the late 1800’s. A majority of climatologists have concluded that human activities are responsible for most of the warming. Human activities are throwing our natural greenhouse gas effect out of balance (Norby & Luo‚ 2004:282). Basically‚ we are surrounded by a blanket of air called the atmosphere which has kept the temperature on earth just right for centuries (Climate and Society). Just as the glass in a greenhouse holds the suns warmth inside‚ so

investigate the effect of temperature on the enzyme catalase. The original research question was exploring the effect temperature would have on a yeast catalase reacting with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). To address the latter question a series of experiments were conducted. The various temperatures experimented with were as follows: 22 degrees Celsius (room temperature)‚ 0 degrees Celsius (freezing)‚ 100 degrees Celsius (boiling)‚ and 37 degrees Celsius. Along with variations in temperature‚ the experiment involved

Abstract A previous lab in which we conducted‚ tested whether or not the light intensity had an effect on the rate of photosynthesis. We concluded that light intensity did possess an effect on the rate of photosynthesis – the closer the experimental plant units were to the light source‚ the more experimental plant units exhibited the effect of gas exchange in photosynthesis

The offer to Joint Juice Inc. by both Albertsons‚ the nation’s second largest grocery chain‚ and Safeway‚ the second largest grocery chain to sell Joint Juice’s products through their nationwide chain stores posed a challenging decision to the company. To sell its products throughout the nation is no doubt a great opportunity for Joint Juice‚ particularly as a start-up business. However‚ this offer challenged the company’s original strategy of staying regional for several more years and learning

in honestly. Ads make people weak and desperate so they will go buy the product they see. The ads that are being examined in this paper are Juicy Juice and Minute Maid. Juicy Juice is more persuasive to Minute Maid because it catches people’s attention with the bold colors all throughout the ad and the happiness of the little girl. Juicy Juice ad used bright colors like green‚ yellow‚ pink‚ red‚ and blue because those colors will jump out to people.
