typical methods of measuring the discharge of an essentially incompressible fluid‚ whilst at the same time giving applications of the Steady-Flow Energy Equation (Bernoulli’s Equation). The discharge is determined using a venturi meter‚ an orifice plate meter and a rotameter. Head losses associated with each meter are determined and compared as well as those arising in a rapid enlargement and a 90-degree elbow. The unit is designed for use with the TecQuipment HI Hydraulic Bench‚ which provides the

Materials and Methods: Inoculation of the unknown was done on a nutrient slant agar The nutrient agar was then incubated at 27°C for one week. The agar appearance was observed and recorded. There was growth that appeared pinkish in color. The first test we did was basic stain using a heat fixed emulsion which kills the bacteria and allows them to adhere to the slide and thickens their protein for better staining. I then covered the heat fixed emulsion with crystal violet for one minute. The stain

Pleistocene coral limestone and alluvium. THE CARIBBEAN is a geologically complex region that displays a variety of plate boundary interactions including subduction in the Lesser Antilles and Central America‚ transcurrent (strike-slip) motions on the northern and southern boundaries‚ and sea floor spreading in the Cayman Trough. The central Caribbean is a lithospheric plate consisting mainly of an anomalously thick‚ oceanic plateau situated between two major continental regions and therein

tectonic plates. Because of the pressure within the crust increases slowly over hundreds of years and finally exceed the strength of the plates‚ earthquakes take place. Human activities can also be the cause of significant earthquakes. Human beings carried out many activities that increase stress in the earth’s crust which lead to earthquakes. For example‚ injecting fluid into deep wells for waste disposal‚ filling reservoirs and firing underground nuclear test blasts. Since the tectonic plates and humans

between two plates causing major earthquakes. Sometimes when this plates are pushed together they form fold mountains or ridges. Today we know that the continents are gradually moving apart. Therefore the there is new rocks created in between those areas. New volcanoes are created and new rocks are formed. Plate tectonics allow scientists to know about the earth’s centre. The oceanic plate slides under the continental plate because it is heavier. Once it goes under the continental plate it melts

ABSTRACT In todays world of ever evolving genetic mutations the incidence of drug resistant forms of microorganisms are on the rise. The importance of identifying these pathogens and their related epidemiology has become increasingly more important. The purpose of this study was to identify an unknown bacterium in a controlled laboratory environment over a 5 week period. Utilizing a variety of differential testing and staining methods learned in the microbiology course‚ students were to determine

Standards Addressed Lesson 13: Plate Tectonics I Overview Lesson 13 introduces students to geological oceanography by presenting the basic structure of the Earth and the properties of Earth’s primary layers. Students learn the structure and composition of oceanic and continental crust and the theory of plate tectonics. In the activity‚ students calculate the rate of movement of the Pacific Plate using information about the age of the Hawaiian Islands. Lesson Objectives Students will: 1. Describe

Prof. Kimberly Rutledge BIO 150 - Unknown Bacterium Identification March 26‚ 2014 Lap Report Unknown Number : #12 Name of Unknown : Pseudomona aerugninosa The identification of unknown bacteria is a time-honored part of microbiology courses. It will challenge my knowledge and skill in performing laboratory techniques and my ability to critically evaluate the information obtained from these techniques. The unknown bacterium tube number 12 was picked. According to the procedures that we have

The causes of tectonic plate movement and how different processes have shaped New Zealand’s landforms occur nearly every single day. In fact one of these processes is happening right now‚ somewhere on the Earth. The 3 major processes are folding‚ faulting and volcanism. While these take place‚ another “force” is also acting‚ changing the shape of our continents‚ and Earth itself‚ the tectonic plate movement. Earth’s outer shell‚ long thought to be a continuous‚ unbroken‚ crust is actually a fluid
