Abstract Acid Rain has a lot of effects on living organisms and on the environment. This experiment has two purposes. One is to determine the acidity of rainwater in certain areas in the Philippines. Another purpose is to determine which type of area-urban or rural- is more subjected to acid rain. The experiment was done by first collecting rainwater from selected rural and urban areas. After the collection was done‚ the rainwater samples were tested using a pH meter. The results of the pH test

Kranworth Chair Corporation produced a range of high-quality‚ trendy yet portable folding chairs. The company was protected by patents and had been enjoying sales growth. However‚ the company started experiencing changes in the environment‚ such as expiration of patents‚ having more competitors and even worldwide recession in the 2000s‚ resulting to a drop in profits. Kevin Wentworth‚ CEO and co-founder of KCC‚ decided to change their strategy from increasing quantity of sales to improving quality

The FDA lists consultations on GMO foods and what was genetically modified in the food to warrant the safety consultation on its website. GMOs‚ or “genetically modified organisms‚” are plants or animals that have been genetically engineered with DNA from bacteria‚ viruses or other plants and animals. These experimental combinations of genes from different species cannot occur in nature or in traditional crossbreeding.

Using a photosynthetic organism of your choice‚ choose only ONE of the three variables (temperature‚ wavelength of light‚ or light intensity) and for this variable. • Design a scientific experiment to determine the effect of the variable on the rate of photosynthesis for the organism • Explain how you would measure the rate of photosynthesis in your experiment • Describe the results you would

Chemistry 12 Formal Report Measuring Reaction Rate using Volume of Gas Produced By John Doe 23th October 2012 Introduction An essential element of chemistry is finding reaction rates. This is because chemists need to know how long a reaction should take. In addition to needing to know the rate of a reaction at any point in time to monitor how the reaction is proceeding. Many factors effect reaction rates‚ two shown above include temperature and concentration. Concentration affects the

acid rain has slowed down the growth of some forests and plants. The effects acid rain has on trees is change of colour and in some extreme cases the individual trees die off completely. Soil degradation is also an effect of acid rain‚ which means the soil in which the vegetation grows has been implicated with acidic chemicals from the rain. The acid in the rain does not kill the trees directly. Instead‚ it slowly damages and injures the tree’s leaves and parts by limiting them from their nutrients

Another poem which conceives the theme of loss is “Mother‚ Any Distance”. The link between them is the grief of when the child has to move on and find their own path moving away from their old home and family. This is conveyed through “ I reached towards the hatch”‚ where Armitage uses the verb “reach” to amplify that it still has to take effort for the persona to be able to retrieve what he wants. By reaching towards the hatch‚ he is moving away from something‚ linking to the context‚ it could be

importance to living organisms Osmosis is the process by which there is a net movement of water through a semi permeable membrane from an area of high water potential to an area of low water potential. Within a cell‚ osmosis has the following effect. If the water potential of the cell is lower than that around the cell water will move across a concentration gradient into the cell. If this is the case‚ the increase in water in the cell‚ may cause the cell to swell‚ which could consequently lead

Case Analysis #1: Monsanto In 1901‚ John F. Queeny started the original Monsanto‚ which was named after his wife‚ Olga Monsanto Queeny. It was originally created to make artificial food additives such as sweetener saccharine‚ coca- cola caffeine extract and vanillin. After being renamed a few times‚ it settled with the name “The Monsanto Company” in 1964. During the 1970s‚ the company produced a “major legal snare” p.303 known as Agent Orange. This was used in the Vietnam War to “quickly deforest
