1.0 INTRODUCTION It is important for humans to have access to clean water and in regards to economic development one of the most significant inputs is water (Allam and Allam‚ 2007:205). In countries like Egypt‚ the importance of water is recognized due to hot‚ dry summers with moderate winters; its desert climate results in aridity (FAO‚ 2013). A major part of the country is desert land with very low and uneven rainfall with an average of about 51mm annually (ibid). The Egyptian territory comprises

1. Describe the mechanism by which green fluorescent protein (GFP) is able to emit fluorescent light and why ultraviolet light is required to visualise it. (5 marks) When GFP is hit with UV light‚ the chromophore is hit by a photon. This changes the chromophore from ground state (A) to A*‚ which is a highly excitable state. Due to such a highly excitable state not being able to remain so for very long‚ the A* state chromophore emits a proton‚ lowering its state to I*‚ the energetic I. This I* state
