"Although we sometimes see aboriginal as a reference to any native culture, it's important to note that Aboriginal (capitalized) or Aborigines is the proper name of the natives who inhabited Australia long before the British settlers arrived in 1788. Extremely important to Aboriginal culture is the belief that man, animals, nature and their Dreaming ancestors are all imbued with the same force. In Aboriginal culture, tjurungas were mythical beings that were represented by a piece of art, usually in the form of carved stone or wood piece.",

"Tangerine. by Edward Bloor. The Book. Paul Fisher's family is moving from Texas to Florida for a number of reasons. The most important one seems to be so that Paul's older brother Erik can impress the football scouts at some major universities. Indeed, most of what his parents do seems to be part of what Paul calls The Great Erik Fisher Football Dream..",
"We're going to go out on a limb here and blame dad. (And partly mom.) For some reason, Mr. Fisher identifies with Erik. Any insult to Erik, like when the newscasters make fun on his slide at the football game, is an insult to him. But here's something to think about. Mr. Fisher is as big a coward as Erik. He won't take responsibility for Erik's actions, just like Erik won't take responsibility. Erik makes his sidekicks do all the dirty work; Mr. Fisher makes Erik win all the glory.",
"Make Way for Numero Uno. Now that he's in high school, and a champion placekicker on his football team, Erik's parents lavish their attention on him all the more. Erik has learned that he can win praise, followers, and ultimately, power, just by trotting out onto the football field occasionally to kick a ball. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. We think the freakiest thing about Erik is how well he can play the part of an earnest, wholesome, upstanding young man. Whenever adults are around, he puts on a show. Like Paul says about one encounter, Erik was as phony as he needed to be (1.3.39).",
"Paul Fisher is the main character from the book Tangerine by Edward Bloor, a story about how a young boy moves to Tangerine, Florida for his father's job. He moves to this hou … se with his mother, father, and his attention craving brother Erik, but little does Paul know is that this town has many secrets. Paul Fisher doesn't really like football because his brother, Erik, plays it. Erik is rude and cruel to Paul and his friends, and Paul does not look up to him at all. The Eri … k Fisher Football Dream, as stated in the book, makes up most of Erik's and Erik's parents' lives. Paul doesn't want anything to do with it",
"Paul runs back to his house, where he newly remembers that Erik, in the belief that Paul exposed him and his friend Vincent Castor for spray painting a wall in their old neighborhood, held Paul's eyelids open while Vincent sprayed paint into Paul's eyes, and confronts his parents for concealment of the story. After a quarrel with Paul, Joey returns to Lake Windsor. Throughout the story, houses in Paul's neighborhood are fumigated for termites and palmetto bugs, and many of the houses are robbed by Erik and his friend Arthur. A man named Luis is introduced as the brother of Theresa and Tino.",
"We find out that he damaged his eyes at age 5—they say by a solar eclipse—but Paul doesn’t remember that. We also learn about Paul’s bully brother, Erik and the Erik Fisher Football Dream, which is his father’s obsession to get Erik into a top football college. Part 2 focuses on Paul’s move to Tangerine Middle School and his success as a soccer player there. Because the story is told from Paul’s point of view, we see Paul’s memories from the past slowly return. We also see his thought process as he watches the “Erik Fisher Football Dream” go on, even when he knows his brother is downright evil. SYMBOLISM There are many important symbols in the novel.",
"Because of the structure of the novel, we see what Paul knows and the disconnect between this and what he shares. Communication is especially a problem in Paul’s family: between his parents, between Erik and his parents, between Paul and his parents, and between Paul and Erik. Because the story is told from Paul’s point of view, we see Paul’s memories from the past slowly return. We also see his thought process as he watches the “Erik Fisher Football Dream” go on, even when he knows his brother is downright evil. SYMBOLISM There are many important symbols in the novel.",

Throughout the story, houses in Paul's neighborhood are fumigated for termites and palmetto bugs, and many of the houses are robbed by Erik and his friend Arthur. A man named Luis is introduced as the brother of Theresa and Tino.",

"Giving your kitten milk can cause upset tummies, cramps and severe diarrhea. Diarrhea can be deadly to kittens because it dehydrates their little bodies very quickly. Cats and kittens do not need to drink milk and can live their entire lives without having one lap of milk. Water is all they will ever need. The result is pain and diarrhea for your kitten. Very young kittens and indeed all mammals produce the enzyme lactase when suckling from their mother but the ability to produce the enzyme diminishes after weaning. The bottom line is not to give cats or kittens milk to drink.",

"You can start weaning at four weeks of age. Milk Replacement Formulas. Powdered kitten milk replacement formula is better for kittens than the canned liquid formula. We recommend that you use only powdered kitten milk replacement formula from the start — or as soon as possible — to prevent diarrhea. The best food for the kittens is their mother’s milk. Remove the kittens only if they are in immediate, grave danger. If the mother cat returns….

"What has not yet been addressed is the need that kittens have to drink their mother’s milk. Kittens absolutely need to drink their mother’s milk, typically until around 8 weeks of age, and that is a minimum. Many vets say the kittens should not be separated from the mother until closer to 12 weeks of age. ",
"Kittens need milk for the first several weeks of their lives. The kittens’ mother provides the best milk for their needs at that age. However, you may feed orphan kittens goat’s milk, available at many large grocery stores or supermarkets. You can also feed them kitten milk replacement formula. Cow’s milk can upset a kitten’s stomach and should be used as a last resort. Kittens should be drinking water by the time they are 4 to 6 weeks of age. Orphaned kittens should drink milk, but older kittens and cats may not tolerate it well. Imagine a kitten. Chances are you imagined a kitten drinking from a bowl of milk, possibly with a bow around her neck. However, kittens who are old enough to separate from their mothers are old enough to drink water instead of milk.",
"But to be clear, feeding kittens cow’s milk isn't a good idea either. “Every species makes milk that’s different in composition – the amounts of calories, protein, fat, and lactose are different in cat’s milk and cow’s milk, so feeding a kitten milk from another species can be problematic too,” Dr. Farcas explains.

"Brain size and EQ (Encephalization Quotient) Some EQ comparisons and what not to do with them The first set of EQs I'm using on this page are from a single source and will vary somewhat from other figures that may be found in other sources (as you'll see in the sets of EQs I present later on this page). Besides different methods of calculating EQ there may be some variation in the specimens used as source material -- most, if not all, animals vary from individual to individual in both body and brain size, and this can make a difference depending on what source specimens are used for comparison.",
"The above equation is an example of scaling, as it defines a relationship between a dependent variable (in the above, BM(e) or expected brain mass) and a measure of body size or scale. Further, the mathematical relationship above is non-. Returning to the topic of encephalization, once an estimate of brain mass is obtained using a credible statistical model (based on data from a range of species), encephalization can be measured. Foley and Lee [1991] provide a good explanation of encephalization quotients",
"The cephalization factor and the subsequent encephalization quotient was developed by H.J. Jerison in the late 1960s. The formula for the curve varies, but an empirical fitting of the formula to a sample of mammals gives. As this formula is based on data from mammals, it should be applied to other animals with caution. Thus, the same amount of brain matter can govern breathing in a large or a small body. While not all control functions are independent of body size, some are, and hence large animals need comparatively less brain than small animals.",
"Encephalization quotient (EQ), or encephalization level is a measure of relative brain size defined as the ratio between actual brain mass and predicted brain mass for an animal of a given size, which is hypothesized to be a rough estimate of the intelligence or cognition of the animal. Thus, the same amount of brain matter can govern breathing in a large or a small body. While not all control functions are independent of body size, some are, and hence large animals need comparatively less brain than small animals.",
"One method commonly used, the encephalization quotient or EQ, is an equation comparing the proportional brain size of an animal, that is brain size relative to body size, to the “expected” brain size in an animal of that size. EQ greater than one indicates brain size larger than expected for an animal of this mass, if EQ equals one brain size is about average, if EQ less than one brain size is less than would be expected. The assumption being that proportional brain size of an animal is a general indicator of intelligence.",
"The Encephalization Quotient (EQ) is the ratio of C over the expected value for C of an animal of given weight S. Here E is the weight of the brain, C is the cephalization factor and S is body weight and r is the exponential constant. The exponential constant for primates is 0.28 and either 0.56 or 0.66 for mammals in general.",
"Sexual Dimorphism An encephalization quotient is calculated as a corrected ratio of brain mass to body mass for a particular organism. However, Table II demonstrates the well-known fact that the australopithecines and Homo habilis are sexually dimorphic (Johanson and White, 1979; McHenry, 1986; 1991a; Zihlman, 1985). Abstract. The australopithecines and Homo habilis have been publicized for years as examples of evolutionary transitional forms that launched our own human lineage. Dogmatic evolutionists have rationalized these claims on the basis of brain expansion, encephalization quotients, and bipedalism.",
"Encephalization may also refer to the tendency for a species to evolve larger brains through time. Anthropological studies indicate that bipedalism preceded encephalization in the human evolutionary lineage after divergence from the chimpanzee lineage. Here E is the weight of the brain, C is the cephalization factor and S is body weight and r is the exponential constant. The exponential constant for primates is 0.28 and either 0.56 or 0.66 for mammals in general.",
"Encephalization is defined as the amount of brain mass related to an animal's total body mass. Quantifying an animal's encephalization has been argued to be directly related to that animal's level of intelligence. Here E is the weight of the brain, C is the cephalization factor and S is body weight and r is the exponential constant. The exponential constant for primates is 0.28 and either 0.56 or 0.66 for mammals in general.",
"The result of their work was the proposal of an encephalization quotient which is defined as the ratio of the true mass of a brain to the anticipated mass of the brain for a given body size (Jerison, 1970; Martin, 1990). Abstract. The australopithecines and Homo habilis have been publicized for years as examples of evolutionary transitional forms that launched our own human lineage. Dogmatic evolutionists have rationalized these claims on the basis of brain expansion, encephalization quotients, and bipedalism."

"Following on from the No votes by the Dutch and the French in relation to the Constitutional Treaty, a new Treaty was proposed, commonly known as the Lisbon Treaty or Reform Treaty. This Treaty amended both the Treaty on the European Union, and also created the Treaty on the Functioning of the Union.

Under EU rules, the treaty had to be ratified by all 27 member states before coming into force. The last country to ratify the treaty was the Czech Republic, which completed the process on 3 November 2009. The Lisbon Treaty which succeeded it was rejected by Irish voters in June 2008. But it got overwhelming support in a second referendum in the Irish Republic on 2 October 2009.",

Renewable resources include solar energy, wind, geothermal energy, biomass and hydropower. They generate much less pollution, both in gathering and production, than nonrenewable sources.",
"Types of Energy. An early source of energy, or prime mover, used by humans was animal power, i.e., the energy obtained from domesticated animals. Later, as civilization developed, wind power was harnessed to drive ships and turn windmills, and streams and rivers were diverted to turn water wheels (see water power). The development of nuclear energy made available another source of energy. The heat of a nuclear reactor can be used to produce steam, which then can be directed through a turbine to drive an electric generator, the propellers of a large ship, or some other machine.",
"10. When most people talk about the different sources of energy they list natural gas, coal and oil as the options – these are all considered to be just one source of energy from fossil fuels. Fossil fuels provide the power for most of the world, primarily using coal and oil. It isn’t easy to determine which of these different sources of energy is best to use. All of them have their good and bad points. While advocates of each power type tout theirs as the best, the truth is that they are all flawed.",
"Types of Energy Sources. There are two types of energy sources, Renewable and Non-Renewable sources. Renewable energy sources are sources that can be replenished or which are available naturally in excess. Non-Renewable energy sources are limited in their availability. ",
"The Sun. Most of the energy we capture for use on Earth originates in the nuclear reactions powering our Sun. Coal, oil, natural gas, biomass, and even the wind and hydropower we harness to generate electricity, originally derive their energy content from the Sun. Learn how our local star is the ultimate energy source. 7% of our total energy use comes from renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, and hydropower. Renewable energy sources lessen our dependence on foreign energy and do not emit greenhouse gases. Experts predict that over the next two decades, renewable energy will provide a growing portion of U.S. overall energy.",

"– Resolutions of the Stamp Act Congress, 1765. Taxation in this manner and the Quartering Act (which required the American colonies to provide food and shelter for British troops) were soundly thrashed in colonial assemblies.",
"The Stamp Act Congress, which was the first united action by the colonies against unpopular British policies, acknowledged that Parliament had a right to regulate colonial trade. It denied, however, that Parliament had the power to tax the colonies, since the colonies were unrepresented in Parliament. The power of taxation resided only with the colonists themselves and their representatives. Under pressure from London merchants, Parliament abolished the Stamp Act in 1766.",
"The Stamp Act Controversy. When Britain repealed the Stamp Act in 1766 — only a year after it had been issued — colonists celebrated in the streets, as this satirical cartoon from 1766 depicts. Something was dreadfully wrong in the American colonies.",
"The Stamp Act. When Parliament passed the Stamp Act in March 1765, things changed. It was the first direct tax on the American colonies. Every legal document had to be written on specially stamped paper, showing proof of payment.",
"The Stamp Act of 1765 New Taxes Anger Colonists, Riots Break Out in the 13 Colonies I n 1763, England had a very large debt from fighting the Seven Years War. In order to raise money to pay off this debt, King George III and the English Parliament began taxing the thirteen colonies.",
"The Declaration of Rights and Grievances was issued by the Stamp Act Congress in New York City in October 1765. It set forth what was to become the battle cry of the colonists -- no taxation without representation. The Stamp Act, enacted by the British Parliament in 1765, was essentially a tax on the colonies.",
"This was known as the Stamp Act Congress, and nine of the thirteen colonies were in attendance. One of their biggest complaints was that no representatives from the colonies had been invited to England to discuss the creation of the new taxes.",
"The Stamp Act of 1765 was not the first attempt to tax the American colonies. Parliament had passed the Sugar Act and Currency Act the previous year. Because tax was collected at ports though, it was easily circumvented. Indirect taxes such as these were also much less visible to the consumer."

"Intake recommendations for folate and other nutrients are provided in the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) developed by the Food and Nutrition Board (FNB) at the Institute of Medicine (IOM) of the National Academies (formerly National Academy of Sciences) [ 2 ]. The FNB developed DFEs to reflect the higher bioavailability of folic acid than that of food folate. At least 85% of folic acid is estimated to be bioavailable when taken with food, whereas only about 50% of folate naturally present in food is bioavailable [ 2, 3 ].",
"Thiamin is found in most types of food. Good sources include: 1 vegetables – such as peas. 2 fresh and dried fruit. 3 eggs. 4 wholegrain breads. 5 some fortified breakfast cereals. 6 liver. Folate is found in small amounts in many foods. Good sources include: 1 broccoli. 2 brussels sprouts. 3 liver. 4 spinach. 5 asparagus. 6 peas. 7 chickpeas. 8 ",
"Like the other B complex vitamins, niacin is important in energy production. Two unique forms of vitamin B3 (called nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, or NAD, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, or NADP) are essential for conversion of dietary proteins, fats, and carbohydrates into usable energy. Six of these contain 50% or more of the DRI recommendation for the nutrient. The good sources of niacin come from many different food groups. We see legumes (particularly peanuts and green peas) represented. A number of vegetables, particularly root vegetables and leafy greens, also show up as good niacin sources.",
"B vitamins have an important role in changing carbohydrates, protein and fat to energy. Vitamin B6 also works together with the mineral iron to stabilise levels of homocysteine, an amino acid that, if raised, can increase the risk of heart disease. Vitamin B6 is assisted by vitamin B12 and folate. Vitamin B12 is also important for healthy blood and nerves. Together, folate and vitamin B12 contribute to the making and functioning of our genetic material (DNA), so they impact every cell in the body. Most B vitamins have a number and a name. Riboflavin: milk, eggs, liver, green vegetables and fortified breakfast cereals*. Niacin: Meat, fortified breakfast cereals*. B6: Beef, fish and poultry, eggs, whole-grains and some vegetables. B12: meat, milk and eggs and some yeast extracts*.",
"Sources of Folate. Food. Folate is found naturally in a wide variety of foods, including vegetables (especially dark green leafy vegetables), fruits and fruit juices, nuts, beans, peas, dairy products, poultry and meat, eggs, seafood, and grains (Table 2) [ 3, 7 ]. The FNB developed DFEs to reflect the higher bioavailability of folic acid than that of food folate. At least 85% of folic acid is estimated to be bioavailable when taken with food, whereas only about 50% of folate naturally present in food is bioavailable [ 2, 3 ].",
"Folic acid, known as folate in its natural form, is one of the B-group vitamins. Folic acid has several important functions. For example, it: 1 works together with vitamin B12 to form healthy red blood cells. 2 helps to reduce the risk of central nervous system defects, such as spina bifida, in unborn babies. Folate is found in small amounts in many foods. Good sources include: 1 broccoli. 2 brussels sprouts. 3 liver. 4 spinach. 5 asparagus. 6 peas. 7 chickpeas. 8 fortified breakfast cereals.",
"Also, some products are labeled as enriched because they meet FDA’s definition for a type of food with a name that includes that term (such as enriched bread or enriched rice). For example, a product labeled as enriched flour must contain specified amounts of thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid, and iron. Food labels may claim that the product is enriched with protein, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, or potassium, provided that the product meets the requirements in FDA's regulation for nutrient content claims using the term enriched..",
"Mean dietary intakes of folate (including food folate and folic acid from fortified foods) range from 454 to 652 mcg DFE per day in U.S. adults of various ages and from 385 to 674 mcg DFE in children aged 1 to 18 years [ 16, 17 ]. The FNB developed DFEs to reflect the higher bioavailability of folic acid than that of food folate. At least 85% of folic acid is estimated to be bioavailable when taken with food, whereas only about 50% of folate naturally present in food is bioavailable [ 2, 3 ].",
"1 Folate is a generic term referring to both natural folates in food and folic acid, the synthetic form used in supplements and fortified food. 2 Folate is critical in the metabolism of nucleic acid precursors and several amino acids, as well as in methylation reactions. ( 3 More information). Naturally occurring folates exist in many chemical forms; folates are found in food, as well as in metabolically active forms in the human body. Folic acid is the major synthetic form found in fortified foods and vitamin supplements. Other synthetic forms include folinic acid (Figure 1) and levomefolic acid.",
"All of the food groups have foods rich in vitamins. Milk naturally contains riboflavin and is fortified with vitamins A and D. Enriched grain products contain added thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and folic acid. Vitamin C is found in fruits and vegetables, while only animal foods naturally contain vitamin B 12. While it's possible to get all the vitamins you need by making healthy food choices, people sometimes need supplements. For example, All women of childbearing age should get 400 micrograms of folic acid each day from fortified foods or a supplement, in addition to folate from a varied diet."

"An American football field is 160' x 360' including end zones. This is 53.33 yds x 120 yds. 1 yard = .9144 meters, so an American football field is 48.768m x 109.728m. The total size in square meters is 48.768x109.728 = 5,351.215 sq m. A Canadian football field is 195'x450' including end zones. This is 65 yds x 150 yds. ",
"If you run around the footaball field which is 120 yards long (10 yards with each endfield) and 53.3 yards wide, each lap will be 346.6 yards. So if you run around the outside of the enfield, it would take a little more than 5 laps to reach one mile. ",
"4. The next step is to locate second base. Measure from the back tip of home plate to a distance of 127 feet and 3 3/8 inches (see Table 2 for distance between bases for other leagues). Mark with a wooden stake. When installing base pads, this will be the center of second base. The top of the mound consists of a plateau that is 5 feet wide. 11. A regulation pitcher's mound is 10 inches high (compared to surface level of home plate). Miscalculation of the pitcher's mound height is probably the second most common error in setting up a baseball field.",
"Pitcher’s Mound. Regulation pitcher mound dimensions and location is described. • First of all, a pitcher’s mound, which is a 24 -by-6 inch pitching rubber, lies at the center of every baseball diamond. This mound, which has a diameter of 18 feet, must be 10-and-a-half inches above the height of home plate. ",
"77 Feet 9 Inches. Standard bases are 15 inches by 15 inches. If you are trying to find a base peg (anchor), subtract 6 to 7 inches from the baseline number above. For example: the base anchor for first base on a high school field will be roughly 89 feet 6 inches from the back of home plate. Softball uses a 16 foot diameter circle for the pitching area. Baseball uses a pitching mound. A major league mound is 18 feet in diameter and 10 inches higher than home plate. The pitching rubber is installed 18 inches back from the center of this mound.",
"Next, the infield turf area. Base paths are 60 feet long and are typically 3 feet wide. This means the grass area is a square that is 54 feet by 54 feet. So, the infield grass area is about 2900 square feet. So, the distance from the backstop to the homerun fence is about 215 feet. The area of the ball park is one fourth the area of a circle with a radius of 215. Area of a circle is pie X radius squared. So, you have A = 215 * 215 * 3.14. This is about 145,0",
"Use a little league field with a 60 foot length base path as an example. The homerun fence is 200 feet away from home plate. Home plate usually is at least 15 feet away from the backstop fence behind the plate. So, the distance from the backstop to the homerun fence is about 215 feet. The area of the ball park is one fourth the area of a circle with a radius of 215. Area of a circle is pie X radius squared. So, you have A = 215 * 215 * 3.14. This is about 145,000 square feet.",
"The catcher’s box is 1.3m x 2.4m. The distance from home plate to the outfield fence must be at least 98m along the left and right field foul lines and 122m at the centre outfield. A modified field is used for Little League and Under 14. The pitcher’s mound is 18.44m from home plate and located in the centre of the infield. It is a 5.5m mound of dirt no higher than 25.4cm. Near the centre of the mound is the pitching rubber, a rectangular slab measuring 61cm x 15cm.",
"The batter's boxes are 4 feet wide and 6 feet long. The batter's boxes are centered lengthwise at the center of home plate with the inside line of each batter's box 6 inches from the near edge of home plate. A baseball field, also called a ball field or a baseball diamond, is the field upon which the game of baseball is played.",
"The distance from home plate to the backstop is 52 feet 4 inches (15.95 m), a reduction of 20 feet (6.1 m) from the previous facility. The field is made up of Kentucky bluegrass, the same surface as the previous stadium, which is grown on a 1,300 acres (530 ha) farm in Bridgeton, New Jersey. "

"Cellular respiration is a series of metabolic processes which all living cells use to produce energy in the form of ATP. In cellular respiration, the cell breaks down glucose to produce large amounts of energy in the form of ATP. Cellular respiration can take two paths: aerobic respiration or anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration occurs when oxygen is available, whereas anaerobic respiration occurs when oxygen is not available.",
"Cellular respiration is a series of set of metabolic reactions and processes. These reactions takes place in the cells of organisms, where the organisms convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate. ",
"Cellular Respiration: is the process that releases energy by breaking down food molecules in the presence of oxygen. Cellular Respiration = Aerobic Respiration. Aerobic respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Some of the energy released by breaking food down is stored as ATP, while some is released as heat. ATP is a short-term energy storage molecule all cells use as their energy source. ",
"ATP and cells. The hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and phosphoric acid (Pi) releases energy (it is an exergonic reaction). Some chemical reactions that occur in cells require energy. Hydrolysis reactions of ATP can provide this energy. During glycolysis, glucose molecules (six-carbon molecules) are split into two pyruvates (three-carbon molecules) during a sequence of enzyme-controlled reactions. This is the same reaction as occurs in aerobic respiration.",

"The main reactants of cellular respiration are: glucose(C6 H12 O6), water(6H2 O) and oxygen(6O2). The products of cellular respiration are: carbon dioxide (6C O2), water(12H2 … O) and Energy (36 ATP). The reactants in the equation for cellular respiration are oxygen (O2) and glucose (C6H12O6).",
"Cellular respiration is the set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products. The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, most of which are redox reactions themselves. Although technically, cellular respiration is a combustion reaction, it clearly does not resemble one when it occurs in a living cell due to slow release of energy from the series of reactions.",
"Cellular respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules, like glucose, to carbon dioxide and water. C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O → 12H2O + 6 CO2. The energy released is trapped in the form of ATP for use by all the energy-consuming activities of the cell. 1 glycolysis, the breakdown of glucose to pyruvic acid. 2 the complete oxidation of pyruvic acid to carbon dioxide and water.",
"The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions, which break large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy in the process, as weak so-called high-energy bonds are replaced by stronger bonds in the products. Respiration is one of the key ways a cell gains useful energy to fuel cellular activity. The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps, most of which are redox reactions themselves. Although technically, cellular respiration is a combustion reaction, it clearly does not resemble one when it occurs in a living cell due to slow release of energy from the series of reactions."

"Most plant diseases are caused by fungi, bacteria, and viruses. Although the term disease is usually used only for the destruction of live plants, the action of dry rot and the rotting of harvested crops in storage or transport is similar to the rots of growing plants; both are caused by bacteria and fungi. ",
"Fungi cause many kinds of diseases in plants and animals. Diseases in humans caused by fungus infection range from skin disorders to serious illness. Fungal diseases like blastomycosis, coccidioidomycosis, and candidiasis in humans often attack the lungs. Thrush, a fungal disease of the throat, is found mainly in infants.",
"Fungal Infections of Human and Animals. Many fungal infections, or mycoses, of humans and animals affect only the outer layers of skin, and although they are sometimes difficult to cure, they are not considered dangerous. Athlete's foot and ringworm are among the common superficial fungal infections. ",
"These are the diseases caused by fungi that grow only on the surface of the skin and hair, i.e., the infection is confined to the outermost layers of skin, nail, and hair. These are the least harmful ones of all fungal infections, as they fail to penetrate the body of the host, and affect only the cells on the surface. Although many species of fungi are beneficial in some way or the other, there are certain species that can cause diseases in humans. General symptoms of such infestations include itching, straining, white patches, and burning on the skin. Skin Disorders Caused by Fungi.",
"Other fungi provide numerous drugs (such as penicillin and other antibiotics), foods like mushrooms, truffles and morels, and the bubbles in bread, champagne, and beer. Fungi also cause a number of plant and animal diseases: in humans, ringworm, athlete's foot, and several more serious diseases are caused by fungi. Because fungi are more chemically and genetically similar to animals than other organisms, this makes fungal diseases very difficult to treat. Plant diseases caused by fungi include rusts, smuts, and leaf, root, and stem rots, and may cause severe damage to crops. However, a number of fungi, in particular the yeasts, are important model organisms for studying problems in genetics and molecular biology.",
"Fungal diseases are often caused by fungi that are common in the environment. Fungi live outdoors in soil and on plants and trees as well as on many indoor surfaces and on human skin. Most fungi are not dangerous, but some types can be harmful to health. Mucormycosis – A rare infection caused by different fungi that belong to a group of fungi called Mucoromycotina. These fungi typically live in soil and in association with decaying organic matter, such as leaves, compost piles, or rotten wood. 1 Symptoms.",

"Many mutations have no effect at all. These are called silent mutations. But the mutations we hear about most often are the ones that cause disease. Some well-known inherited genetic disorders include cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, Tay-Sachs disease, phenylketonuria and color-blindness, among many others. All of these disorders are caused by the mutation of a single gene. Most inherited genetic diseases are recessive, which means that a person must inherit two copies of the mutated gene to inherit a disorder",
"Each of these mutations can cause a variety of different diseases and conditions. Read on to learn what these mutations are and what disorders they can cause. slide 1 of 8. The causes of chromosomes mutation occur when there is any change in the arrangement or structure of the chromosomes. These mutations occur most often during meiosis during the stage when crossing over occurs. There are several different mutation types that result in chromosomal structure change. This cause of mutation occurs when a piece of one chromosome is transferred to a non-homologous chromosome. The two chromosomes, that are often reciprocal, swap segments with each other. This genetic mutation is often responsible for chronic myelogenous leukemia.",
"Such types of mutations are also called as mosaicism. Here are some diseases which are caused by gene mutations:- 1)Cystic Fibrosis:- Cystic fibrosis is a single gene mutation. This disease is related with secretory glands of the body like sweat and mucus. This is a hereditary disease.",
"A genetic disorder is a disease that is caused by a change, or mutation, in an individual’s DNA sequence. ",
"1 For example, Translocation Down Syndrome is a subtype of Down Syndrome caused by translocation of a large sequence of a chromosome. 2 Subtraction disorders: The process of translocation can also cause large sequences of DNA to be lost from chromosomes. 3 This creates diseases similar to monosomy conditions. Autosomal Trisomy Chromosome Diseases. The 22 non-sex autosome chromosomes (autosomes) can also exhibit disorders, of which the most common is trisomy (having 3 copies rather than a pair). Because these are disorders of the autosomes and not the sex chromosomes, these disorders can occur with males or females.",
"Answers. Best Answer: Many diseases can be caused by mutations, such as: -sickle cell anemia-certain cancers-B thallasemia-cystic fibrosis-basically, any disease can be caused by mutations, and the diseases may be apparent later on in life or right at birth. Source(s): ",
"A gene mutation is a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene, such that the sequence differs from what is found in most people. Mutations range in size; they can affect anywhere from a single DNA building block (base pair) to a large segment of a chromosome that includes multiple genes. ",
"1 Genetic mutation— A permanent change in a gene that can be passed on to children. 2 The rare, early-onset familial form of Alzheimer's disease is associated with mutations in genes on chromosomes 21, 14, and 1. 3 Genetic risk factor— A change in a gene that increases a person's risk of developing a disease. If a person inherits from a parent a genetic mutation that causes a certain disease, then he or she will usually get the disease. Sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, and early-onset familial Alzheimer's disease are examples of inherited genetic disorders. In other diseases, a genetic variant may occur"

All monosaccharides are reducing sugars, along with some disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides which contain an aldehyde group are known as aldoses, and those with a ketone group are known as ketoses.

Sugars that contain an aldehyde group are called aldoses, and the sugars that contain a ketone group are called ketoses. Sugars that are non-super imposable mirror images of each other are called enantiomers. A non-reducing sugar is one that does not react, such as sucrose. The acetal group at the C-1 position makes the sugar non-reactive. Their structures are modified, so that they do not have free aldehyde or ketone groups to react.",
"The most important carbohydrate is glucose. In general, monosaccharides have one carbonyl group (aldehyde, ketone, or acid), and the remaining carbons each bear one hydroxyl group. Monosaccharides can be linked together via ether and/or acetal bonds to form very large polymers called polysaccharides. If the carbonyl group is a ketone, the monosaccharide is referred to as a ketose. However, if the carbonyl is an aldehyde, the monosaccharide is called a aldose. There are more possible configurations of the aldose form than ketose due to the presence of more chiral carbons found in aldoses.",
"The most elementary carbohydrates comprise polyhydroxyaldehydes (an aldehyde moiety) or polyhydroxyketones (a ketone moiety). There are four general classes of carbohydrates: monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. If the carbonyl group is a ketone, the monosaccharide is referred to as a ketose. However, if the carbonyl is an aldehyde, the monosaccharide is called a aldose. There are more possible configurations of the aldose form than ketose due to the presence of more chiral carbons found in aldoses.",
"Among the compounds that belong to this family are cellulose, starch, glycogen, and most sugars. There are three classes of carbohydrates: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides. The monosaccharides are white, crystalline solids that contain a single aldehyde or ketone functional group. They are subdivided into two classes aldoses and ketoses on the basis of whether they are aldehydes or ketones.",

The aldehyde can be oxidized via a redox reaction in which another compound is reduced. Thus, a reducing sugar is one that reduces certain chemicals.",
"Monosaccharides are the simplest carbohydrates in that they cannot be hydrolyzed to smaller carbohydrates. They are aldehydes or ketones with two or more hydroxyl groups. The general chemical formula of an unmodified monosaccharide is (C•H 2 O) n, literally a carbon hydrate.. In food science and in many informal contexts, the term carbohydrate often means any food that is particularly rich in the complex carbohydrate starch (such as cereals, bread and pasta) or simple carbohydrates, such as sugar (found in candy, jams, and desserts)."

"A proposition is generally considered objectively true (to have objective truth) when its truth conditions are met and are bias-free; that is, existing without biases caused by, feelings, ideas, etc. of a sentient subject. Objectivity in referring requires a definition of truth. According to metaphysical objectivists, an object may truthfully be said to have this or that attribute, as in the statement This object exists, whereas the statement This object is true or false is meaningless.",
"Objectivity. The terms “objectivity” and “subjectivity,” in their modern usage, generally relate to a perceiving subject (normally a person) and a perceived or unperceived object. The object is something that presumably exists independent of the subject’s perception of it. In other words, the object would be there, as it is, even if no subject perceived it. Hence, objectivity is typically associated with ideas such as reality, truth and reliability. The perceiving subject can either perceive accurately or seem to perceive features of the object that are not in the object.",
"Objectivity is a value. To call a thing objective implies that it has a certain importance to us and that we approve of it. Objectivity comes in degrees. Claims, methods and results can be more or less objective, and, other things being equal, the more objective, the better. Douglas's conception of objectivity emphasizes a prohibition for values to replace or dismiss scientific evidence—she calls this detached objectivity —but it is complemented by various other aspects that relate to a reflective balancing of various perspectives and the procedural, social aspects of science (ch. 6).",
"A second, broader meaning of the term refers to the ability in any context to judge fairly, without bias or external influence; this second meaning of objectivity is sometimes used synonymously with neutrality. Objectivity in referring requires a definition of truth. According to metaphysical objectivists, an object may truthfully be said to have this or that attribute, as in the statement This object exists, whereas the statement This object is true or false is meaningless.",
"This objectivity in journalism helps the audience to make up their own mind about a story and decide what they want to believe. There is a necessity for reporters to present the honesty regarding the facts instead of always reporting information in an honest format (Clark). They also argue that such objectivity is nearly impossible to apply in practice—newspapers inevitably take a point of view in deciding what stories to cover, which to feature on the front page, and what sources they quote.",
"Journalistic objectivity can refer to fairness, disinterestedness, factuality, and nonpartisanship, but most often encompasses all of these qualities. They also argue that such objectivity is nearly impossible to apply in practice—newspapers inevitably take a point of view in deciding what stories to cover, which to feature on the front page, and what sources they quote.",
"Objectivity is a central philosophical concept, related to reality and truth, which has been variously defined by sources. Generally, objectivity means the state or quality of being true even outside of a subject 's individual biases, interpretations, feelings, and imaginings. Objectivity in referring requires a definition of truth. According to metaphysical objectivists, an object may truthfully be said to have this or that attribute, as in the statement This object exists, whereas the statement This object is true or false is meaningless.",
"Scientific objectivity is a characteristic of scientific claims, methods and results. It expresses the idea that the claims, methods and results of science are not, or should not be influenced by particular perspectives, value commitments, community bias or personal interests, to name a few relevant factors. Douglas's conception of objectivity emphasizes a prohibition for values to replace or dismiss scientific evidence—she calls this detached objectivity —but it is complemented by various other aspects that relate to a reflective balancing of various perspectives and the procedural, social aspects of science (ch. 6)."

"A gallbladder scan is a nuclear scanning test that is done to check gallbladder function. The scan can find blockage in the tubes (bile ducts) that lead from the liver to the gallbladder and small intestine (duodenum). During a gallbladder scan, a radioactive tracer substance is injected into a vein in the arm. The liver removes the tracer from the bloodstream and adds it to the bile that normally flows through the bile ducts to the gallbladder.",

"Definition. A HIDA scan is an imaging test. It helps to diagnose problems of the gallbladder and liver. Bile is a fluid that is made in the liver. It is stored in the bile duct. This fluid helps your body digest certain foods. If there is a problem with the production or flow of bile, a HIDA scan may find the problem",
"A cholescintigraphy is a test that diagnoses obstructed bile ducts. Cholescintigraphy is most commonly used to diagnose problems with the gallbladder when other more commonly-performed tests, particularly ultrasonography, are normal. "

"The term mechanical digestion refers to the physical breakdown of large pieces of food into smaller pieces which can subsequently be accessed by digestive enzymes. In chemical digestion, enzymes break down food into the small molecules the body can use. Digestion begins in the mouth with the secretion of saliva and its digestive enzymes. Food is formed into a bolus by the mechanical mastication and swallowed into the esophagus from where it enters the stomach through the action of peristalsis.",
"The majority of starch is also digested in the duodenum and jejunum, the first and second segments of the small intestine. The monosaccharide products of carbohydrate digestion, glucose and galactose, are actively absorbed through the intestine by a process that requires energy. ",
"Digestion is the breakdown of food into smaller particles or individual nutrients. It is accomplished through six basic processes, with the help of several body fluids—particularly digestive juices that are made up of compounds such as saliva, mucus, enzymes, hydrochloric acid, bicarbonate, and bile. About 5 percent of undigested food products are broken down in the ileum. This is why some people can have a small part of their intestine removed and still seem to digest most foods with little problem. Digestion of food that enters the small intestine is usually complete after three to ten hours.",
"Anaerobic digestion is a collection of processes by which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen. The process is used for industrial or domestic purposes to manage waste and/or to produce fuels. ",
"Most of the end-products of digestion, along with vitamins, minerals, and water, are absorbed in the small intestinal lumen by four mechanisms for absorption: (1) active transport, (2) passive diffusion, (3) endocytosis, and (4) facilitative diffusion. Active transport requires energy. About 5 percent of undigested food products are broken down in the ileum. This is why some people can have a small part of their intestine removed and still seem to digest most foods with little problem. Digestion of food that enters the small intestine is usually complete after three to ten hours.",
"The small intestine is 5–6m in length, and most of the chemical digestion occurs within the first metre. Once digested into smaller molecules, absorption can take place. Millions of tiny finger-like structures called villi project inwards from the lining of the small intestine. These structures greatly increase the surface area of contact that the products of digestion have with the small intestine, allowing for their rapid absorption into the bloodstream.",
"Image: The large intestine. The human digestive system consists of a long muscular tube and several accessory organs such as the salivary glands, pancreas and gall bladder. It is responsible for food ingestion and digestion, absorption of digestion products and the elimination of undigested materials. Millions of tiny finger-like structures called villi project inwards from the lining of the small intestine. These structures greatly increase the surface area of contact that the products of digestion have with the small intestine, allowing for their rapid absorption into the bloodstream.",
"Most digestion occurs in the upper portion of the small intestine, called the duodenum. Below the duodenum is the jejunum, and then there is the last segment, called the ileum. About 5 percent of undigested food products are broken down in the ileum. This is why some people can have a small part of their intestine removed and still seem to digest most foods with little problem. Digestion of food that enters the small intestine is usually complete after three to ten hours.",
"Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food molecules into small water-soluble food molecules so that they can be absorbed into the watery blood plasma. In certain organisms, these smaller substances are absorbed through the small intestine into the blood stream. Digestion is a form of catabolism that is often divided into two processes based on how food is broken down: mechanical and chemical digestion. Digestion begins in the mouth with the secretion of saliva and its digestive enzymes. Food is formed into a bolus by the mechanical mastication and swallowed into the esophagus from where it enters the stomach through the action of peristalsis."

"Answers. Best Answer: No genital warts are not hereditary Like warts that appear on other areas of your skin, genital warts are caused by a virus — HPV — that infects the top layers of your skin. There are more than 100 different types of HPV, but only a few can cause genital warts. These strains of the virus are highly contagious and spread through sexual contact with an infected person. About two-thirds of people who have sexual contact with someone who has genital warts develop the condition — usually within three months of contact, but in some cases not for years",

Genetic ophthalmologic researchers now have evidence that the most common vision problems among children and adults are genetically determined.",
"Genetic basis of Color Blindness. Color vision deficiency or color blindness is caused when the cone cells are unable to distinguish among the different light wavelengths and therefore misfire, causing the brain to misinterpret certain colors. Any mutations that affect the above genes causes the color vision deficiency. For example, a mutation affecting the first two genes would cause a defect in detecting the green and red color of the light spectrum. This is one of the most prevalent forms of color blindness. slide 4 of 4",

"Color blindness, or color vision deficiency, is the inability or decreased ability to see color, or perceive color differences, under normal lighting conditions. Color blindness affects a significant percentage of the population. There is no actual blindness but there is a deficiency of color vision. The most usual cause is a fault in the development of one or more sets of retinal cones that perceive color in light and transmit that information to the optic nerve. This type of color blindness is usually a sex-linked condition. ",
"Red-green color vision defects are the most common form of color vision deficiency. This condition affects males much more often than females. Among populations with Northern European ancestry, it occurs in about 1 in 12 males and 1 in 200 females.

"A cyclically balanced budget is a budget that is not necessarily balanced year-to-year, but is balanced over the economic cycle, running a surplus in boom years and running a deficit in lean years, with these offsetting over time. Balanced budgets and the associated topic of budget deficits are a contentious point within academic economics and within politics. The mainstream economic view is that having a balanced budget in every year is not desirable, with budget deficits in lean times being desirable.",

"It is a form of parallel projection, where all the projection lines are orthogonal to the projection plane, resulting in every plane of the scene appearing in affine transformation on the viewing surface. It is further divided into multiview orthographic projections and axonometric projections. With multiview orthographic projections, up to six pictures of an object are produced, with each projection plane parallel to one of the coordinate axes of the object. The views are positioned relative to each other according to either of two schemes: first-angle or third-angle projection.",
"The orthographic projection has been known since antiquity, with its cartographic uses being well documented. Hipparchus used the projection in the 2nd century BC to determine the places of star-rise and star-set. With multiview orthographic projections, up to six pictures of an object are produced, with each projection plane parallel to one of the coordinate axes of the object. The views are positioned relative to each other according to either of two schemes: first-angle or third-angle projection.",
"So far we have only covered one method of Orthographic Projection, this is known as First Angle Projection. First Angle Projection is used in Europe and most of the world. However America and Australia use a method known as Third Angle Projection. In First Angle Projection we place our object in the First Quadrant (see above figure). This means that the Vertical Plane is behind the object and the Horizontal Plane is underneath the object. In Third Angle Projection the Object is placed in the Third Quadrant",
"An orthographic Projection is often called a blueprint. In Technology Class we will not be concerned with a number of the rules that would govern a drawing for a detailed drafting class, but we will endevor to have the students recognize, prepare and be able to read a simple mechanical drawing. ",
"This means we make the object become 2D. The difference between Orthographic Projection and any other drawing method is that we use several 2D views of the object instead of a single view. Orthographic Projection gives us a very clear method of communicating ideas and objects. It is a method that every engineer in the world recognizes. Because of this we can reproduce any object drawn Orthographically. All of these problems can be overcome using Orthographic Projection. An engineer in Germany can have a plastic bottle made in Japan, exactly as he wants it, without any problem if he sends an Orthographic drawing of the bottle.",

"Everyone is incredibly busy, and often we believe that we don't have the time to really think through an issue, said Jen Lawrence, co-author of Engage the Fox: A Business Fable About Thinking Critically and Motivating Your Team (Greenleaf Book Group Press, 2014).",
"§1. Critical thinking is a domain-general thinking skill. The ability to think clearly and rationally is important whatever we choose to do. If you work in education, research, finance, management or the legal profession, then critical thinking is obviously important. But critical thinking skills are not restricted to a particular subject area.",
"Critical thinking is a meta-skill-it governs a person's facility to process information in a logical manner. A person with critical thinking skills is capable of upgrading his own knowledge and can easily engage in independent self-learning.",
"What all of this means is that critical thinking skills are at a premium. The businesses that succeed now will be the ones that can best find or create managers and executives with the ability to “think outside the box” and see new possibilities for the future. The importance of abandoning assumptions.",
"Critical thinking gives you an intellectual approach that enables you to select from the available information that which is relevant to you and which you most agree with (e.g. what is the most up-to-date information, who is the most respected person in that area, what is the most credible source). In the workplace.",
"Therefore, critical thinking is focused on testing the validity of assumptions or beliefs by the application of a set of cognitive skills such as ‘interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, explanation and self-regulation’ (Facione, 2010: 5).",
"Critical thinking is a process which leads to reasoned conclusions, through the application of a set of skills. It can be applied and used in different contexts in order to test the validity of several hypotheses presented as solutions of a problem or an issue.",
"Lawrence noted that critical thinking helps employees gather all of the information required to analyze a situation, generate optimal solutions to a problem and get feedback from all the people involved in the situation. All of these steps, she said, contribute to better business solutions overall."

"Single nucleotide polymorphisms, frequently called SNPs (pronounced “snips”), are the most common type of genetic variation among people.

For example, a SNP may replace the nucleotide cytosine (C) with the nucleotide thymine (T) in a certain stretch of DNA. SNPs occur normally throughout a person’s DNA. ",
"Polymorphism is common in nature; it is related to biodiversity, genetic variation and adaptation; it usually functions to retain variety of form in a population living in a varied environment. The most common example is sexual dimorphism, which occurs in many organisms. All the common blood types, such as the ABO blood group system, are genetic polymorphisms. Here we see a system where there are more than two morphs: the phenotypes A, B, AB and O are present in all human populations, but vary in proportion in different parts of the world.",

"Single-nucleotide polymorphisms may fall within coding sequences of genes, non-coding regions of genes, or in the intergenic regions (regions between genes). SNPs within a coding sequence do not necessarily change the amino acid sequence of the protein that is produced, due to degeneracy of the genetic code. This is simply the lesser of the two allele frequencies for single-nucleotide polymorphisms. There are variations between human populations, so a SNP allele that is common in one geographical or ethnic group may be much rarer in another.",

It often persists over many generations because no single form has an overall advantage or disadvantage over the others regarding natural selection. A common example is the different allelic forms that give rise to different blood types in humans. Genetic polymorphism. Definition. noun. (1) The existence together of many forms of DNA sequences at a locus within the population. (2) A discontinuous genetic variation that results in different forms or types of individuals among the members of a single species.",
"1 Genetic polymorphism is the simultaneous occurrence in the same locality of two or more discontinuous forms in such proportions that the rarest of them cannot be maintained just by recurrent mutation or immigration, originally defined by Ford (1940). All the common blood types, such as the ABO blood group system, are genetic polymorphisms. Here we see a system where there are more than two morphs: the phenotypes A, B, AB and O are present in all human populations, but vary in proportion in different parts of the world."

"The first dry cell battery was manufactured in 1888 under the auspices of a Dr. Gassner. It was to become the prototype for the dry cell battery industry. Gassner used zinc to hold all of the components and kept zinc for the negative electrode as well. He had just constructed the first battery cell with the first electrolyte. The copper and zinc rods were the electrodes, positive and negative. The acid started to eat away the zinc rod, while the copper rod captured the energy released from the action.",
"It is a connected bunch (or “battery”) of electro-chemical devices. The Italian inventor Alessandro Volta invented the first battery in 1799. Volta’s battery was called a pile —a messy stack of disks made of two types of metal. The discs were separated from each other by pieces of cloth soaked in salt water. ",
"Alesandro Volta invented the first battery. The first actual battery was invented by a man in Italy named Alessandro Volta in 1800.

"This first battery for operating a cell phone was actually a car’s battery and was hooked directly to the phone instead of being a separate battery like cell phone batteries are today. Most early cell phones were only able to be used in a vehicle because they needed such large amounts of battery power. By the time the first prototype of the modern cell phone appeared in 1973, the phone was capable of being used independently and worked in multiple calling regions. Cell phones were being tested in trials in Chicago, Washington D.C. and Baltimore by 1977 and in Japan by 1979.",
"That is, not until the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta came along. In 1800, Volta created the first modern day battery when he built what came to be known as his voltaic pile. The pile was made of up of zinc and copper plates with vinegar-or brine-dampened pieces of leather or pasteboard placed in between each plate. Some of the first primitive types of batteries can be traced all the way back to the Parthians around 250 B.C. when the they lived in the area of modern day Baghdad [source: Buchmann ].",
"The first battery powered watch was publicly announced on January 3rd, 1957 by Hamilton, an American watch.

"These Baghdad batteries may have been used for religious rituals, medicinal purposes, or even electroplating. In 1799, Italian physicist Alessandro Volta created the first battery by stacking alternating layers of zinc, brine-soaked pasteboard or cloth, and silver. This arrangement, called a voltaic pile, was not the first device to create electricity, but it was the first to emit a steady, lasting current. "

In the field, they record data relating to the depth of geological strata and other features. Like a physician, the geophysicist interprets the image to extrapolate the geometry of the petroleum trap. Interpretation is carried out in constant collaboration with geologists, who are able to identify the type of formation and describe its characteristics.",
"Although geophysics was only recognized as a separate discipline in the 19th century, its origins go back to ancient times.

"30% of your score is credit utilization: how much of your credit limit is used up by your balance? On each revolving account, you need to keep your balance below 30% of your credit limit, or you will hurt your FICO score. For example, if you have a $200 credit limit, you must not have a balance higher than $60, which is 30% of $200. Every time you apply for credit, the lender makes a hard inquiry into your credit history, and this type of inquiry hurts your FICO score a few points. You get all these hard inquiry points back over the course of a year after the hard inquiry, and the inquiry falls off your reports at the 2-year mark.",
"Increase your credit limits. The first simple and fast tip to raising your credit score is by increasing your credit card limits. If your balance is $4900 on your $5000 limit card, your balance to credit ratio is nearly 100%. By raising your limit to say $8000, your score will jump because you now don’t look as stretched on your report. First off, make sure you get your current credit score. Check my page for a current promotional code from MyFico. They have a free trial and they are the only company I trust to get real, legit FICO scores. Also if you need any other legal documents use a Legal Zoom Promo Code and save on your legal documents.",

"The Second Step. Next, find the items on your credit report that are pulling your credit scores down and put them into a list, organize the list with the oldest accounts at the top of the list. You are going to be using this list to dispute these negative accounts with the credit bureaus through dispute letters. The first step in making your credit score go up is to determine the reason why it is bad in the first place. Generally it will be from late payments, maxed out credit cards ,excessive credit inquiries and other irresponsible behavior. The best way to accomplish this is to buy and examine a copy of your credit report.",

"But if you’re trying to boost your credit score quickly, you should start by paying off the credit card with the lowest available credit limit. For example, say you have two credit cards. One credit card has a $1,600 limit with a $400 balance, which means 25 percent of your available credit is being used. ",
"The fastest way to raise your credit score is by reducing your balance to credit ratio. For example, if you have a $5000 limit credit card, but owe $4900, that will kill your score. Reducing that balance down to 0 or even $1000, would likely cause a jump of 40+ points or more in your score. First off, make sure you get your current credit score.

"The number one recommended way to quickly boost a score is to check your credit report and make corrections when applicable. Both MyFICO and Forbes recommend this as a first step to a quick fix. Credit reports are known to have errors, and many errors can cost you tens or even hundreds of points on your score. Make Substantial Debt Payments. If you have some free cash, making sizable payments on debt accounts can boost your score significantly. In fact, behind disputing errors, paying down credit card balances is the fastest track to a score spike.",

"Treatment of Freiberg's disease. Freiberg's disease may be asymptomatic, or it may heal without treatment particularly in Stages I through III. When medical intervention is necessary, the treatment goal is to rest the metatarsal joints, allowing the joint inflammation and irritation to go away. The disease is associated with the gradual collapse or disintegration of the joint surfaces between the metatarsals as well as the formation of abnormal joint tissue. Causes of Freiberg's disease. The specific events or factors that cause Freiberg's disease are not completely understood.",
"Freiberg’s Infarction is the term applied to the condition when it occurs in a child. It is likely that the excessive pressure causes a small fracture to occur within the cartilage growth plate that exists between the long shaft of the metatarsal bone and the head, cutting off the blood flow. Freiberg’s Infraction. Freiberg’s Infraction is the terminology used in the adult condition where the x-ray signs are very similar. It has been shown that, while many people have two or three arteries that can supply blood to the area, some have only one making complete loss of blood flow more possible.",
"Freiberg disease: Introduction. Freiberg disease: A condition where progressive degeneration of the head of a toe bone (usually the second toe) results in foot pain. More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Freiberg disease is available below",
"Synonyms: Freiberg's infraction. This is a rare disease characterised by osteonecrosis of the second metatarsal head, most commonly seen in teenage girls. It was first described in 1914 by Alfred H. Freiberg. It is difficult to ascertain the true incidence of Freiberg's disease, as many cases may resolve spontaneously before treatment has been sought.",
"Dr Jeremy Jones ◉ et al. Freiberg disease, also known as Freiberg infraction, is osteochondrosis of metatarsal heads. It typically affects the 2 nd metatarsal head (the third and fourth may also be affected). It can be bilateral in up to 10% of cases",
"It is not a severe widespread disease, but a condition whereby the head of the metatarsal becomes misshapen and loses its nice round smooth contour. As the end of the bone loses its shape it gradually turns into a “square peg“ trying to fit into a “round socket”. ",
"Freiberg disease, also known as a Freiberg infraction, is a form of avascular necrosis in the metatarsal. It generally develops in the second metatarsal, but can occur in any metatarsal. Physical stress causes repeated microfractures where the middle of the metatarsal meets the growth plate. ",
"Freiberg’s Disease. Note the flattened tip of the 2nd Metatarsal bone. Freiberg’s disease refers to a painful condition mostly affecting the 2nd metatarsal head. This is the bony ‘knuckle’ in the ball of the foot behind the 2nd toe. Freiberg’s Infraction. Freiberg’s Infraction is the terminology used in the adult condition where the x-ray signs are very similar. It has been shown that, while many people have two or three arteries that can supply blood to the area, some have only one making complete loss of blood flow more possible."

"Allot between 12 and 25 percent of your income to personal items and activities as well as groceries. This includes entertainment and beauty services such as hair salons and barber shops. Two to 10 percent can be expected for personal expenses while the remaining 10 to 15 percent can be spent on food. Percentage guidelines help with money management. Developing percentage guidelines for your family income is vital to a family budget. This allows you to spend what is needed without going over the allotted amount that you have set for each category of expenses.",
"Rent to Income. Landlords typically require that your annual income is at least 40 times the monthly rent. For example, if you and your roommate are looking at a $3,000 per month apartment, the landlord would require a combined income of $3,000 × 40, which equals $120,000.",
"If that new apartment rents for less than 30 percent of your income, you should be in good financial shape. The cost of paying for a place to live is usually the largest single monthly expense for any household, whether you own or rent your home. For example, suppose you earn $50,000 a year, or $4,167 a month. If 35 percent of your income goes to rent, you'll be paying about $1,458 a month. But if only 25 percent goes to rent, the monthly payment is about $1,042 -- a savings of more than $400 a month",
"Percentage spent on clothing. Experts recommend spending no more than 8 percent of your income on clothing monthly. Percentage spent on groceries and dining out: Experts say you should aim for 18 percent of your income on total food expenses. Percentage spent on entertainment: Experts say you should aim for 5 percent of your income on total recreational expenses.",
"The Percentages. Most financial experts suggest that no more than 30 percent of your income should be spent on rent. That percentage is not universally recognized, however. Some experts put the ratio at 35 percent, while others say it should be 25 percent to 30 percent. For example, suppose you earn $50,000 a year, or $4,167 a month. If 35 percent of your income goes to rent, you'll be paying about $1,458 a month. But if only 25 percent goes to rent, the monthly payment is about $1,042 -- a savings of more than $400 a month",
"How Much Rent is Affordable? You might have also heard that you should spend no more than 30% of your annual income on rent. Spending 30% of your yearly income on rent is widely believed to be an affordable amount, leaving enough money for all your other expenses. Landlords typically require that your annual income is at least 40 times the monthly rent. For example, if you and your roommate are looking at a $3,000 per month apartment, the landlord would require a combined income of $3,000 × 40, which equals $120,000.",
"Once you buy, he says to make your housing costs no more than 25% of your take-home pay. Presumably, he would recommend an even smaller percentage for rent. Answers.com, always a good source for popular beliefs, gives 25% of gross income as the maximum rent. Move.com suggests a range of 25% to 30% . The photo alone makes it worth the click. The post muses, without resolution, on the eternal question of how high is too high. Many personal finance experts say you should spend no more than 35% of your gross income on rent (not including renter’s insurance) whether you live in a high-or low-cost area.",
"Rent or Mortgage. You should expect to spend between 25 to 30 percent of your net income each month on rent or mortgage. Landlords and property managers typically require you to make at least 2.5 to three times the rent to qualify as a tenant. If your current home takes more than 30 percent of your income, it is time to add to your income, get a roommate or find a cheaper place to live. Percentage guidelines help with money management. Developing percentage guidelines for your family income is vital to a family budget. This allows you to spend what is needed without going over the allotted amount that you have set for each category of expenses."

"Towing capacity and payload are two different creatures. Lets start with payload. Payload is the difference between empty weight of your vehicle and the gross weight (the maximum weight it will safely haul. Also called GVWR or gross vehicle weight rating). Gross wieght minus empty weight = payload. Towing capacity is what the vehicle will safely pull and be able to safely stop with without the trailer trying to push you through an intersection with the brakes locked on the towing vehicle. I hope that this helped you",
"Payload refers to the amount of cargo weight a vehicle can safely carry. For example: An over the road semi can gross a max weight of 80,000 lbs. This is max weight including the truck, the trailer, the fuel and the driver. The payload capacity refers to the actual weight of the cargo which could be less than half of the vehicles gross weight. There may be room for more cargo in the trailer, but this would cause an overweight situation that could be unsafe. The same is true with the Tacoma",
"For instance, they often calculate this number by supposing that nothing is in the truck except for a 150-pound (68-kg) driver. In realistic situations, where the driver may be heavier, other passengers are in the cab and extra cargo is in the bed, the truck's actual towing capacity is lower [source: Edmunds ]. It turns out that not only do half-ton pickups weigh and carry more than a half ton, they can also tow more than a half ton. Although payload capacity usually refers to how much weight a truck can carry in both passengers and cargo in the cab and bed, towing capacity refers to how much the truck can safely tow. Although different, these two parameters can affect each other. For instance, the payload can include the tongue weight, which is the portion of trailer weight -- usually about 15 percent -- that bears down on the truck's hitch. Manufacturers often embellish the maximum towing capacity of a truck in advertisements",
"Payload is the carrying capacity of an aircraft or launch vehicle, usually measured in terms of weight. Depending on the nature of the flight or mission, the payload of a vehicle may include cargo, passengers, flight crew, munitions, scientific instruments or experiments, or other equipment. Extra fuel, when optionally carried, is also considered part of the payload. When the weight of the payload and fuel are considered together, it is known as the useful load fraction . In spacecraft, mass fraction is normally used, which is the ratio of payload to everything else, including the rocket structure.",
"Best Answer: Payload is how much weight you can put into and on a vehicle. Towing capacity is the maximum weight of a trailer and load that can be pulled behind a vehicle. Payload is the difference between empty weight of your vehicle and the gross weight (the maximum weight it will safely haul. Also called GVWR or gross vehicle weight rating). Gross wieght minus empty weight = payload.",
"Full Definition of PAYLOAD. 1. : the load carried by a vehicle exclusive of what is necessary for its operation; especially: the load carried by an aircraft or spacecraft consisting of things (as passengers or instruments) necessary to the purpose of the flight. 2. : the weight of a payload.",
"For a rocket, the payload can be a satellite, space probe, or spacecraft carrying humans, animals, or cargo. For a ballistic missile, the payload is one or more warheads and related systems; the total weight of these systems is referred to as the throw-weight. When the weight of the payload and fuel are considered together, it is known as the useful load fraction . In spacecraft, mass fraction is normally used, which is the ratio of payload to everything else, including the rocket structure.",
"payload. 1. The sum of the weight of passengers and cargo that an aircraft can carry. See also load. 2. The warhead, its container, and activating devices in a military missile. 3.

Roosevelt, a Democrat, would eventually be elected to a record four terms in office, the only U.S. president to serve more than two terms. In 1936, he won his second term in office by defeating Kansas governor Alf Landon in a landslide. On July 18, 1940, Roosevelt was nominated for a third presidential term at the Democratic Party convention in Chicago. The president received some criticism for running again because there was an unwritten rule in American politics that no U.S. president should",

"Continue ReadingHyperthyroidism: Causes. When you have hyperthyroidism, your body is producing excessive amounts of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Since these hormones regulate your metabolism (how your body processes and uses energy), having too high a level will cause symptoms related to a high metabolism. ",
"Hyperthyroidism, also known as over active thyroid and hyperthyreosis, is the condition that occurs due to excessive production of thyroid hormone by the thyroid gland. Thyrotoxicosis is the condition that occurs due to excessive thyroid hormone of any cause and therefore includes hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism due to certain types of thyroiditis can eventually lead to hypothyroidism (a lack of thyroid hormone), as the thyroid gland is damaged. Also, radioiodine treatment of Graves' disease often eventually leads to hypo",
"Knowledge center. Hyperthyroidism, also known as overactive thyroid, is a medical condition caused by an abnormally high level of thyroid hormone in the bloodstream. The thyroid gland produces an excessive amount of thyroid hormones. The thyroid gland is located in the neck",
"Symptoms are related to the effects of excess thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormones control metabolism, so excessive amounts of T4 or T3 cause a metabolic rate that is too high. This is called a hyper-metabolic state. People with hyperthyroidism typically have rapid heart rates, weight loss, and heat intolerance. The thyroid gland can be visibly enlarged (goiter). You can also have elevated blood pressure, nervousness, and hand tremors. You may also sweat a lot, feel hungry and restless, and have difficulty concentrating. ",

Thyrotoxicosis is a toxic condition that is caused by an excess of thyroid hormones from any cause. 1 There are many possible causes of hyperthyroidism. 2 Common symptoms of hyperthyroidism include restlessness, tremors, weight loss despite an increased appetite, sweating, rapid heart rate, intolerance to heat, and frequent bowel movements. 3 Treatments for hyperthyroidism include medications, ablation, and surgery.",
"About Hyperthyroidism. The thyroid gland is a part of the body's endocrine (hormone) system — which is made up of the glands that help regulate many of the body's different functions. An overactive thyroid produces too much of the thyroid hormone thyroxine, which causes some of these functions to speed up. Hyperthyroidism is the medical term for an overactive thyroid gland. Too little thyroxine reverses the process and slows down the body's functions. This can be caused by an underactive thyroid, a condition also referred to as hypothyroidism. Symptoms. Hyperthyroidism often causes the thyroid gland, which is located at the front of the neck, to become noticeably larger.",
"With hyperthyroidism, or overactive thyroid, the thyroid makes too much, explains Dr. Sood.

For this reason, it is easiest to look at the average distance between planets as opposed to a specific distance at any point in time; however we have also included minimum and maximum distances.",
"The reason for this is that the planets have elliptical orbits and none of them are perfect circles. As an example, the distance between the planet Mercury and Earth can range from 77 million km at the closest point, to as far as 222 million km at the farthest. There is a huge amount of different in the distances between the planets depending on their position on their orbit path.

The difference between these two distances is 1 - 0.72 = 0.28 AU. ",
"Distances in the solar system are commonly measured in Astronomical Units (AU). An AU is simply the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. Because the Earth's orbit around the Sun is an ellipse, the Earth is not always the same distance from the Sun. An AU is equal to ~149,600,000 km."

"White rice usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes to cook. Check the rice about 4 minutes before the timer is due to go off. When you take the cover off, the top of the rice may look like it is totally cooked.",
"A: Generally white rice takes around 10 minutes per uncooked cup of rice to cook in both cool touch and Pot Style rice Cookers. Brown rice will take around 20 minutes per uncooked cup of rice to cook in Pot Style Rice Cookers and 2 hours to cook in Cool Touch Rice Cookers due to the extra bran layers on the grain. Please note that these measurements refer to the measuring cup provided by AROMA Housewares Company that came with your unit.",
"Measure the rice with a cup and put it into your cooking pot. Some rice cookers have a removable bowl or pot, while others must have the rice placed directly in the cooker. Most of the time, rice cookers will come with a measuring cup or scoop that can fit 3/4 cup (180 mL).",
"Cooking Time. One cup of regular long, medium, or short grain rice typically takes 15 minutes to cook in a rice cooker, parboiled rice tends to take 20 minutes for 1 cup, and 1 cup of whole grain rice can take between 40 and 45 minutes.",
"Add the rice to the slow cooker that is cooking on high, when there is 2 hours left in the cooking time. If your slow cooker is set on low, add when there is 2 hours 45 minute",
"My video “Cooking White Rice” uses the 1-2-3 ratio for perfect white rice. (1 cup of rice, 2 cups of water, will make 3 cups of rice.). This formula does not work for brown rice. Check the back of the package of rice to determine how much water is needed for your particular brand of rice.",
"1 Rice works on a 2 to 1 ratio in the slow cooker, 2 cups water to 1 cup rice, just as it does when cooking on the stove top or baking. 2 So if there is about 2 cups of liquid already in the slow cooker, then just add the rice. 3 If there only seems to be 1 cup, then add in an additional cup of hot water or broth.",
"Also, You can use your slow cooker as a rice cooker. Simply spray the sides and bottom with a non-stick cooking spray. Add the amount of water plus rice that you’d like to cook using the 2 to 1 ratio (explained above). If you are using brown rice, add an additional 1/2 cup, or use a 2 1/2 cup water to 1 cup rice ratio."

For any stubborn bits remaining I use a brush cleaner, I use a brush cleaner on all of my brushes as it restores the bristles and nourishes them. I rarely use synthetic brushes. Rinse and dry with the bristles pointing up. When you use oil paints first use turpentine to remove the majority of the paint. It's not the most glamorous part of painting but it has to be done right away before the paint starts to set in and ruins your brushes.",

"2. Rinse the brush in the appropriate solvent. It's okay to use the dirty solvent from your painting session. Pour it into a bowl or bucket and gently run your brush back and forth through the solvent to release the paint. You can wipe it along the sides and bottom of the container as well. 1 If you use acrylic (latex), acetone (nail paint remover) or denatured alcohol can be used to save a dried up brush. 2 Simply soak it for a minute or two in acetone, then wash off with soap. 3 Repeat till the bristles are soft and clean. 4 Use tweezers to remove those frizzy hairs on the side.",
"Don't clean the brush with dish soap; it will gum up the ferrule and bristles. And there's no need to rinse the tool in fresh water. The more often you clean it with the softener solution, the better it gets. Fabric softener coats the handle, ferrule, and bristles, allowing paint to flow effortlessly off the tool. 4. To dry your paintbrush quickly, use a paintbrush spinner to fling water from the brush. Spin the brush in a wet waste bucket. To make one, start with an empty 5-gallon plastic bucket with lid. Cut an 8-inch hole in the center of the lid. Place a plastic trash bag in the bucket and snap on the lid.",
"Clean paint brushes immediately after use. Do not soak brushes in solvent or water, as this can damage the bristles. Consider using one set of synthetic painting tools for oil-based products and another set for water-based products. It is much easier to clean the paint brushes if you don't switch back and forth between the two types of bases. Do not use a wire brush on a paint brush. While it will help remove the dried paint from the tips of the bristle, it also knocks off the flag (splits) at the end of the bristles. Using a paint brush comb to clean the paint from the inside of the brush will increase the life of the brush.",
"The best way to determine if there is any residual paint in the brush is to suspend it in a clear container after you think it is clean. Use a string or thin wire through the hole at the end of the brush handle to suspend just the bristles in clean water. Let it sit in the water for about four hours. ",

You can also use a lot of turps in the process! An easy and economical way to clean them is as follows. Ad.",

Purdy ® strongly recommends the use of a paint brush comb as one of the best ways to clean a paint brush. Do not use a wire brush on a paint brush.

"Best Answer: I just started using Ammonia + Water (warm even better) and it works great removing old or hard to clean paint from brushes and other art materials. Ammonia is stronger than soap so with less you do more; just use a cap of ammonia, add some water, let the brush soak overnight and then rinse it. Rinse and dry with the bristles pointing up.

"A pun is a joke that makes a play on words. A pun, also called paronomasia, uses words that have several meanings or words that sound similar but have different meanings. ",
"A pun, or paronomasia, is a play on words. It plays with the multiple meanings of a word or the different meanings of similar sounding words. ",
"Definition. A pun is a play on words, either on different senses of the same word or on the similar sense or sound of different words. Known in rhetoric as paronomasia. Puns are figures of speech based on the inherent ambiguities of language. A pun is a play on words, either on different senses of the same word or on the similar sense or sound of different words. Known in rhetoric as paronomasia",
"pun. 1. the humorous use of a word or phrase so as to emphasize or suggest its different meanings or applications, or the use of words that are alike or nearly alike in sound but different in meaning; a play on words. 2. a word or phrase used in this way. 3. to make puns. pun. n. A play on words, sometimes on different senses of the same word and sometimes on the similar sense or sound of different words. intr.v. punned, pun·ning, puns.",
"The pun is a form of word play which puts forward two or more meanings. Funny pun jokes exploit several meanings of words, or of similar-sounding words, with an intention to induce humor. It is a play on words that takes benefit of similarities between words or phrases.",
"Pun Examples. Paronomasia or pun is a word play, exploiting different meanings of the same word or a string of words, or similar-sounding words. This article gives you different examples of puns. Advertisement. A type of word play wherein one word has two meanings or where similar-sounding words are exploited, is known as pun. This gives an ambiguity to the sentence, which is purposely added for a humorous or rhetorical effect. According to Ambrose Bierce, pun is A form of wit, to which wise men stoop and fools aspire.",
"The pun, also called paronomasia, is a form of word play that suggests two or more meanings, by exploiting multiple meanings of words, or of similar-sounding words, for an intended humorous or rhetorical effect. A recursive pun is one in which the second aspect of a pun relies on the understanding of an element in the first. For example, the statement π is only half a pie. (π radians is 180 degrees, or half a circle, and a pie is a complete circle).",
"Funny Puns. Enjoy our funny puns with a list of examples that are sure to make you laugh. Puns are a form of word play which take advantage of words, or similar sounding words, with multiple meanings, often to create a humorous situation or joke. Puns can sometimes be created unintentionally, in which case the saying ‘no pun intended’ is used",
"Pun Definition. A pun is a play on words in which a humorous effect is produced by using a word that suggests two or more meanings or by exploiting similar sounding words having different meanings. Humorous effects created by puns depend upon the ambiguities words entail. The ambiguities arise mostly in homophones and homonyms. "

"By using the energy of sunlight, plants can convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and oxygen in a process called photosynthesis. As photosynthesis requires sunlight, this process only happens during the day. We often like to think of this as plants `breathing in carbon dioxide and `breathing out oxygen. However, the process is not exactly this simple. Just like animals, plants need to break down carbohydrates into energy.",
"Carbon fixation or сarbon assimilation refers to the conversion process of inorganic carbon (carbon dioxide) to organic compounds by living organisms. The most prominent example is photosynthesis, although chemosynthesis is another form of carbon fixation that can take place in the absence of sunlight. In the second step, called the Calvin cycle, the actual fixation of carbon dioxide is carried out. This process consumes ATP and NADPH. The Calvin cycle in plants accounts for the preponderance of carbon fixation on land.",
"Carbon dioxide is converted into sugars in a process called carbon fixation. Carbon fixation is an endothermic redox reaction, so photosynthesis needs to supply both a source of energy to drive this process, and the electrons needed to convert carbon dioxide into a carbohydrate. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis maintains atmospheric oxygen levels and supplies all of the organic compounds and most of the energy necessary for life on Earth.",
"Lesson Summary. Carbon fixation is the process by which inorganic carbon is added to an organic molecule. Carbon fixation occurs during the light independent reaction of photosynthesis and is the first step in the C3 or Calvin Cycle. ",
"Carbon fixation (The Calvin Cycle). Carbon fixation stage in photosynthesis. The carbon fixation stage occurs in the stroma and results in the production of glucose [glucose: a simple sugar made by the body from food, which is used by cells to make energy in respiration] .",
"In photosynthesis, energy from sunlight drives the carbon fixation pathway. Oxygenic photosynthesis is used by the primary producers —plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. They contain the pigment chlorophyll, and use the Calvin cycle to fix carbon autotrophically. In the second step, called the Calvin cycle, the actual fixation of carbon dioxide is carried out. This process consumes ATP and NADPH. The Calvin cycle in plants accounts for the preponderance of carbon fixation on land.",
"Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy, normally from the Sun, into chemical energy that can be later released to fuel the organisms' activities. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis maintains atmospheric oxygen levels and supplies all of the organic compounds and most of the energy necessary for life on Earth.",
"In C4 plants the photosynthesis takes place in a chloroplast of a thin-walled mesophyll cell and a 4-carbon acid is handed off to a thick-walled bundle sheath cell where the Calvin cycle occurs in a chloroplast of that second cell. This protects the Calvin cycle from the effects of photorespiration. In CAM plants the photosynthesis and initial carbon fixation occur at night and a 4-carbon acid is stored in the cell's vacuole. During the day, the Calvin cycle operates in the same chloroplasts.",
"Chapter 17 Reactions Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which most of the energy in the biosphere. is produced. Most of the carbon dioxide and the production of oxygen in. the atmosphere results from photosynthesis. The overall reaction of. Photosynthesis consists of a set of light and dark reactions. ",
"This chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules, such as sugars, which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water – hence the name photosynthesis, from the Greek φῶς, phōs, light, and σύνθεσις, synthesis, putting together. In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product. Most plants, most algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs.

"1 If your blood glucose measures 100 mg/dL to 125 mg/dL, your doctor will recommend another blood test. 2 You have higher-than-normal blood glucose levels, but the levels are not high enough to be diagnosed as having diabetes. 3 Your doctor will confirm all abnormal tests with a second test before diagnosing diabetes. Normal blood glucose levels are less than 100 mg/dL. (Read as 100 milligrams of glucose for each deciliter of blood.. A deciliter is 1/10th of a liter.). 1 If your blood glucose measures 126 mg/dL or higher, your doctor will order a second test.",
"1 For this test, you fast overnight, and the fasting blood sugar level is measured. 2 Then you drink a sugary liquid, and blood sugar levels are tested periodically for the next two hours. 3 A blood sugar level less than 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L) is normal. 1 A fasting blood sugar level less than 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal. 2 A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9 mmol/L) is considered prediabetes. 3 If it's 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or higher on two separate tests, you have diabetes. 4 Oral glucose tolerance test."

"Estimating kitchen backsplash installation time. Actual time to install a kitchen backsplash determined by a number of factors, and accurate number of man-hours for completing the project can be estimated only after analyzing difficulty of work. Additional couple hours will be necessary for grout application and cleaning the job site.

"Project size. It is very uncommon that basic installation of 30 square feet marble tile backsplash will last longer than one day. But 8 hours might be insufficient time for a single tile setter to complete installation of 6” x 6” travertine tile and apply grout on over 55 ft 2 backsplash. Additional couple hours will be necessary for grout application and cleaning the job site. But complex backsplash installation with incorporation of different types of tile and creating unique design could be a very time consuming project which might last a few days to complete.",
"With a proper installation tile backsplash will last for many years. Tile is very long lasting product and it can easily serve its decoration function on a backsplash for 25 – 30 years or more. In majority of cases it won’t be a problem with longevity, but with appearance. Let say in 10 – 15 years you might just want to replace old fashion backsplash with some new and modern product. The prices for getting a new tile backsplash installed will depend on which product you will use and who will perform installation. There is a very huge price range for backsplash tile. Some products might cost as low as $1 s/f and some $20 s/f plus there will be additional cost for tile adhesive and grout if necessary. For the installation of tile backsplash and apply grout prepare to pay $10 - $20",
"If so you should be able to grout as soon as you're done installing the tile. If you used spacers and have joints 1/8 or larger let the tile set up for about an hour before grouting. Make sure you remove the spacers! If your lines are wider than 1/8 make sure you use sanded or floor grout. Wall grout or unsanded is only for grout lines 1/8 or less. ",
"This is a video of two homeowners installing a new glass tile backsplash in the kitchen. All items were bought at the local hardware store for about $200.00. This video shows how to install around the light sockets, how to cut the glass, and basically how to do a complete install from start to finish. ",
"If you are planning to do it yourself it might take longer and everything will depend on your ability to manage the installation of tile. Usually, if you hire a professional installer to tile a kitchen backsplash it shouldn’t take longer than couple of days to complete 30 – 40 s/f of backsplash area. The prices for getting a new tile backsplash installed will depend on which product you will use and who will perform installation. There is a very huge price range for backsplash tile.

"On average, an experienced tile setter is able to install 35 – 40 square feet of natural stone or glass mosaic tile set on 12” x 12” mesh for 5 – 6 hours. Additional couple hours will be necessary for grout application and cleaning the job site. But complex backsplash installation with incorporation of different types of tile and creating unique design could be a very time consuming project which might last a few days to complete.",
"Apply it with a notched trowel sized to your tile. For most wall tiles, the trowel will have 1/4- or 3/8-inch notches. Use the flat side of the trowel to spread the mastic onto the wall, starting at the center mark and working up to the horizontal reference line. ",
"When tiling a backsplash, you have three simple materials: tile, wall, and the adhesive used to join tile to wall. If you are using a wet adhesive, your project will take several days to complete because the adhesive needs to dry to properly set. http://www.custombuildingproducts.com/TDS/TDS-119.pdf. So, a 14-foot-long wall that is two feet high is 28 square feet. http://buybondera.com/how-to. Use this number to purchase tile mat and tiles, adding five percent to 10 percent for wastage. In this example, you would purchase about 30 square feet of mat and tile."

"Organic compounds and inorganic compounds form the basis for chemistry. Here is a look at the difference between organic and inorganic compounds, plus examples of each type. Benzene is an example of an organic compound. Benzene is made of carbon atoms bonded to other carbon atoms and to hydrogen atoms. Chad Baker, Getty Images. Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph.D.",
"The major difference between the Organic and Inorganic compounds is the nature of bonding. Essentially the organic molecules are formed with covalent bonds while the inorganic compounds are bonded with ionic bonds. 1 Organic compounds have relatively low melting points and boiling points in comparison to the inorganic compounds of a similar molecular mass. 2 They are soft and have a flexible lattice structure to its crystalline compounds. 3 This is attributed to the non-ionic nature of the bond.",
"Four shared electrons are known as a double bond and six shared electrons are known as a triple bond. The oxygen we breathe consists of two oxygen atoms sharing four electrons in a double bond. Methane, or natural gas, is a covalent compound made of one carbon bonded to four hydrogens via single bonds. ",
"Naming Inorganic Compounds. Binary Molecular Compounds. When a pair of elements form more than one type of covalent compound, Greek prefixes are used to indicate how many of each element are in a compound. The more electronegative element is written last and its ending is changed to ide. Example",
"However one can always differentiate between organic compounds and inorganic compounds. Summary: 1. Organic compounds are the result of activities of living beings while inorganic compounds are created either due to natural processes unrelated to any life form or the result of human experimentation in the laboratory. 2. 3. Organic compounds contain carbon, while inorganic do not. 4. Organic compounds have carbon-hydrogen bonds, while inorganic do not. 5. Inorganic compounds contain metal atoms, whereas organic compounds do not.",
"A covalent bond affects only two atoms, but most atoms can form more than one covalent bond at a time. The compound hydrogen fluoride consists of molecules in which one atom of hydrogen and one atom of fluorine are held together by a covalent bond. Atoms of oxygen or sulfur, inorganic chemistry...

"Some might say an ionic bond is the extreme of a polar covalent bond--the sharing is so uneven that an electron it is virtually transferred. Organic compounds are compounds while have C-H or C-C bonds, with the exception of carbonites, cyanides, and cyonates. Inorganic is everything else. Paul · 4 years ago. ",
"Yet another difference is the fact that inorganic compounds contain metal atoms, whereas organic compounds do not. This too is not one hundred percent true. Maybe one could just take the word of organic and inorganic chemist on what constitutes an organic or inorganic compound. 3. Organic compounds contain carbon, while inorganic do not. 4. Organic compounds have carbon-hydrogen bonds, while inorganic do not. 5. I",
