Merchant power plants differ from traditional rate-based power plants as to: 1) how they are financed and 2) where they sell the electricity they generate. A merchant power plant is funded by investors and sells electricity in the competitive wholesale power market. Since a merchant plant is not required to serve any specific retail consumers‚ consumers are not obligated to pay for the construction‚ operations or maintenance of the plant. A traditional rate-based power plant‚ on the other hand

Objectives: To use the process of chromatography to separate plant pigments. To compare the plant pigments found in spinach and red leaf lettuce leaves. Hypotheses: I believe the spinach leaf in the acetone will have a higher pigment of chlorophyll a and the red leaf lettuce will have a higher pigment of anthocyanin. I believe the spinach leaf in distilled water will have a higher pigment of chlorophyll a and the red leaf lettuce will have a higher pigment of anthocyanin. Discussion Questions:

takes thought‚ planning and time to plant a vegetable garden. The proper area to plant your vegetables‚ a decent layout of your garden and a good idea of what you would like to plant are all important things to take to into consideration when decide to grown your own vegetables.

1. The problem that is being tested by the researchers in this study is the effects of a low fat‚ plant based diet on participants in a multi-center corporation. More than half of Americans today are either overweight or obese and have an increased risk of type 2 diabetes‚ cardiovascular disease‚ hypertension and some cancers. The researchers wanted to test how a plant based diet will affect these factors in people in the workplace. They chose the work place because it is a place that people spend

Transpiration Abstract This lab demonstrates how different environments effect the rate of transpiration in plants. A potometer is set up and placed in four different environments: one simply at room temperature (the control)‚ one with a fan pointing toward it creating a gentle breeze‚ on with a floodlight on it and a beaker felled with water as a heat sink‚ and one where the leaves are misted then covered with a transparent plastic bag. It is imperative that the tubing doesn ’t have any bubbles

high value material which‚ when blended with soil‚ can restore soil tilth by correcting the imbalances caused by the over-utilization of petrol-chemical based fertilizers; thus enabling crops and plants to naturally combat pests and diseases‚ all resulting in increased crop production and general plant health. Using European technology we began researching production processes and the potential of Vermicomposting over 20 years ago. In 1991 we built the first American flow through Vermicomposting
