scientists calculated that irrigation pumping‚ which began in the last several decades‚ has dramatically altered groundwater flow through the aquifer. They show that the resulting changes to the chemistry of the groundwater have the potential to either increase or decrease arsenic levels‚ in a paper written by an MIT-led team of scientists in the Nov. 22 issue of Science. Arsenic poisoning‚ usually characterized by sores on the chest‚ or blackened knotty palms‚ and cases of skin‚ lung‚ liver‚ bladder and

the market price of a commodity rises‚ producers will expand or increase their supply onto the market. There are two main reasons why supply curves for most products slope upwards from left to right giving a positive relationship between the market price and quantity supplied: 1) When the market price rises‚ it becomes more profitable for businesses to increase their output. Higher prices send signals to firms that they can increase their profits. When output rises‚ a firm’s costs may rise‚ therefore

THE PUZZLE OF MOTIVATION HOOK: Before I start I would like to ask you how many of you have scientific methods this semester? So you have to write a report and the subjects are fairly complex yet it is compulsory. Most of you are probably thinking that you have to get started with this report soon but you can’t find any motivation to do so. And the others who had it last semester‚ how did you find the motivation to start it? It’s often said that the hardest part is to start isn’t it? Well my subject
