Why is water important for living organisms? Water is very important in all living organisms‚ it is vital for many different things. Around 70% of our body weight is due to water. The quantity is high in organs such as lungs and brain and fluids such as blood‚ lymph‚ saliva and secretions by the organs of the digestive system. First of all water is vital in the regulation of body temperature to depending on the temperature mammals will alter the amount they sweat. If they are to warm the amount

Oil Conservation Fortnight (OCF) - 4th – 19th January Petroleum or crude oil is a non renewable energy source that means it is present in the limited amount. If the use of oil will continue with the careless nature it is going to exhaust definitely at one day. Hence conservation of this valuable resource is the need of the hour. Therefore in order to generate awareness among the masses about the urgency of conserving petroleum products‚ the celebration of an Oil Conservation

ENERGY MANAGEMENT PRINCIPLES INTRODUCTION In the modern days energy has the significant role in our life. With development where we got comfortable life and much modern facilities where we got some problem with excessive use of energy resources as declining of energy sources‚ climate change. So it is an big challenge for present and future generations as the cost of energy increase and its supply decrease‚ older buildings needs to modified and new buildings designed to use less energy. The optimization

Energy from Waste: A review of the potential to produce biofuels from landfill waste Sneha Bhandari‚ Ariel Kangasniemi‚ Krupa Mistry‚ Rheanne Ritchie‚ and Courtney Sieben Abstract In recent decades‚ there has been an increased need to produce sufficient renewable energy to support global population growth. In response‚ it has become crucial to find socially responsible sustainable energy resources that offer energy security‚ reduce

Many researchers are trying to find new renewable energy sources to help diminish carbon emissions‚ which cause global warming. Carbon dioxide (C02) is released from human activities as well as using fossil fuel these are the causes of global warming and the green-house effect (European commission 2003). The release of green house gases has risen because of increasing population and technology development which has resulted in high demand for the use of fossil fuels. This is a serious issue in many

are important to understanding cell injury and cell death regardless of the injuring agent” (Heuther & McCance‚ 2012). Cellular injury arises when a cell is unable to sustain homeostasis. The injury can be reversed if the cell can recover from whatever damage was done but if it does not recover the cell will die. The three common forms of cell injury are hypoxic injury‚ free radicals and reactive oxygen species injury‚ and chemical injury. The most common form of cell injury is hypoxic injury‚ or

Negative feedback in living organisms Negative feedback is a principle which is used by the body in order to return systems to its normal level; it does this by turning the corrective measures off. Homeostasis uses the principle of negative feedback in order to maintain a constant internal environment. There are a number of different examples of negative feedback such as thermoregulation‚ regulation of blood glucose and the regulation of water potential. The control of the heartbeat can also use

FlowCAM® Application Note #105 Yeast Viability Measurements in Fermentation Studies Objective An important component of fermentation processes is to continually monitor yeast growth and viability. The most common method for doing this is using the ASBC hemocytometer count method. In this method‚ samples are taken from the fermentation vessel‚ stained with methylene blue‚ and then counted manually under a microscope using a hemocytometer. While this method is well known and documented

Portfolio The Cell and Cell Theory [pic] The cell The word cell comes from the Latin word “cellula”‚ which means a small room. The cell is the smallest unit of a living organism‚ also known as “the building block of life”. Every living organism is consisted of a cell. There are bacteria (unicellular organisms)‚ and multicellular organisms. There are different types of cells‚ prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. All cells come from preexisting cells. “Every cell is self-maintaining;
