This justification will be reinforced using two ethical theories that nullify the refusal of administration of the vaccine by a guardian‚ the first theory that will be exhausted will be Act Utilitarianism and further reinforced using W.D.

Monica Perez Experiment 8: Acetylsalicylic Acid Experiment 01/25/2013 CHM Lab- 2211 Sec 0016 Instructor: Jennifer Reed Introduction: Commonly used as Aspirin‚ acetylsalicylic acid is an analgesic (pain reliever)‚ which is one of the products of the esterification reaction between salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. This esterification occurs since the hydroxyl group from the salicylic acid reacts with acetic anhydride to form an ester. In this experiment‚ we will be able to recreate

Fat Soluble Vitamins and the Body Humans need a number of vitamins in their body to survive. A group of the vitamins needed for vitality include the fat soluble vitamins‚ which includes vitamins A‚ D‚ E‚ and K. Deficiency in these vitamins is rare‚ but rather‚ over consumption is the problem often associated with these vitamins. Fat soluble vitamins are vitamins that are stored in fatty tissues and in the liver. These vitamins‚ unlike water soluble vitamins‚ are stored for long periods of

Overcoming Challenges in Andragogy Using CAL Theory As I sat watching my seven year old memorise her multiplication tables‚ I was amazed by her speed. This made me contemplate on how I had struggled to learn the verbs in the morning in my French classes.

In fact research in those years was never conclusive on the ability of an adult to learn. It was only towards the early

The effect of varying temperature on thee Rennin enzyme Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to see what affect different temperate had on the reaction rate of the enzyme rennin. The experiment was performed by placing test tubes filled with renin and milk into water bath which was heated or cooled to one of the temperatures trialed. The hypothesis justified because it found because it though data that the enzyme reacted faster with the 45° temperate because it was
