... heart, lungs, color and temperature. If the baby is having trouble with any of these things then it is taken into what is called the neonatal intensive care unit. In some of the smaller hospitals they aren’t equipped with the technology that is needed to keep the baby alive and the baby has to be transported to a bigger hospital, usually to a hospital in a metropolitan city in order to get the proper care. After the baby has been assessed for problems then it is watched closely for the next 48 hours. This is the most critical time for a baby . During this time the doctors can determine if the baby is going to have a long road ahead of them or if the baby is h ...
... Genome Projects current target date (Lemonick 46). But we should use genetic engineering in a proper way. Our goal should be to find areas where it is needed rather than try to misuse it for personal gain. Genetic engineering can provide medical benefits to humans, but limits have to be set. Our body contains one hundred trillion cells, inside most cells is a nucleus that contains a complete set of the body’s blueprints. Those blueprints are twisted into forty-six packets called chromosomes. Unravel a chromosome, and you get the long, thread-like molecule called DNA. Within the DNA are the blueprints, called genes, for which make proteins. The DNA ...
... While it may get older up north the size of the bass is larger in the south. This is so because there is more to eat. The sexual characteristics of the bass remain the same nort and south. The spawn in the spring, when water temperatures begin to move past sixty degrees fahrenheit. The spring spawning urge in a bass is set off by both water temperature and photoperiod. Photoperiod is the proportion of the day in which the bass are exposed to sunlight. As the day light hours grow longer through the spring and early summer, so does the photoperiod. This process affects the temperature of different bodies of water in different ways. Small shallow ponds heat ...
... causing pulls and tears. Liver and kidney damage are caused by Creatine increasing the amount of ATP (adenosine tryphosphate) that is used for energy, made by the kidneys, which can cause the kidneys to stop producing ATP because of an overload of ATP being made from the Creatine. This can result in kidney or liver failure. Constriction of the blood vessels occurs when you use Creatine and work out for extended amounts of time. This can cause major constriction of the vessels around the heart causing abnormal heart rates and heart attacks. Pancretitis is another side effect where the pancreas stops working and fails. Creatine is said to be directly related to pancre ...
... electrode becomes oxidized and the metal hydride becomes reduced. In fact, the hydrogen which was separated from water come to react with the metal in the negative electrode to form MH. On the other hand, the hydroxyl ion ( from water) reacts with Ni(OH)2 at the positive electrode to form NiOOH. Ni now change from +2 to +3. Ni(OH)2 +OH = NiOOH + H2O + e From equation (1) and (2) there is no net change in electrolyte quantity or concentration over the charge and discharge cycle. We can see that it is different from other alkaline electrode such as NiCd which water is produced at both electrode during charge and used up during discharge. In the NiMH battery, ...
... policies on air pollution has the politically undesirable effect of having extensive economic consequences on all sectors of the economy. Therefore, those policies which lead to the development of an ecosociety must be aimed at having the greatest environmental impact while creating minimal economic distortions. For the purpose of this essay, pollution shall be identified as follows "...the deliberate or accidental introduction to the environment of contaminants, in the form of either wastes or products " (Bryner, 10). This essay will deal with the problem of air pollution. Air pollutants come from heavy industry, fumes from automobiles, jet planes a ...
... patters of single nucleotide polymorphisms, which are inhereited through generations. Because of the location of the polymorphisms in the cells cytoplasm, during fertilization, mitochondria are only passed on from the egg. This means that the mitochondria DNA is passed on from the mother. This information becomes useful when using them for identification purposes. In any given cell, there are thousands of copies of mitochondrial DNA. This relative abundance of mitochondrial DNA can be used by scientists to obtain DNA from samples where genomic DNA analysis is difficult of impossible. The first question was which, if any, of the bones found belonged to the Czar ...
... frequency and impact of oil spills. As a result of new operating procedures and research into advanced technologies, the industry has made tremendous progress in preventing spills over the past decade. In 1997, the latest year that Coast Guard statistics are complete, the volume of oil spilled in U.S. waters declined by two-thirds compared to the year before, representing the lowest amount recorded since the Coast Guard began publishing data in 1973. And more than three-fourths of those spills were under 10 gallons -- less than a car's fuel tank holds. Even as the industry strives to reduce the number and size of oil spills still further, we've also learned a lot ...
... need of security and ways in which the organisations secure their business information will be discussed. Facts and findings 2.1 What is Security? “ Security is the state of mind” [1] An example is mission impossible one of the detective movies who show how easy it is to tap a telephone- Although it is illegal unauthorised access is gained, damage can be done to sensitive data if leaked from one company to another which can provide criminals with the electronic gold mine of fraud opportunities.[2] so this justifies the need for security. Many definitions say that security means “…..unauthorised access, such as preventing a h ...
... calve stands 6 feet tall and is able to stand after birth. They are highly attuned to danger thanks to their height and good sense of smell and eyesight. They can be fast and can reach speeds of up to 35 mph. Females spend over 12 hours a day looking, while males are less. Night mostly spent lying down ruminating, especially hours after dark and before dawn. A Giraffe has 2 ways of getting around which is walking and galloping. The long legs and short trunk decree an ambling walk, with the entire weight supported alternatively on the left and right legs, like camels. The long neck moves in a synchrony to maintain balance. It can gallop up to 37 mph. The ...
