Endangered Manatee

human population. Another possible cause is a virus that is unknown to
scientists. Many people believe that this problem will eventually stop an the
manatee population will flourish, but others are rather pessimistic.
Ecological Problem: The manatee population is quickly dying off and
unless they make an astonishing comeback, they will soon be extinct. .....

Atomic Theory
Words: 531 / Pages: 2 .... have the same chemical behavior, but different elements have atoms
with different chemical properties."
Scientists weigh gases by holding the same amount of a gas in a
container and then wighing it. In the 20th century, most scientists used
oxygen as the standard gas to compare other gases' weights. It is relativly
easy to measure the weights of liquids and sloids, the same procedure for
gas is followed, more or less. In the early 1960s, though, the
international union of chemistry and physics agreed that there would be a
new standard, carbon isotope (carbon-12).
British physicist Ernest Rutherford found and proved that an atom's
mass is concentrate .....

Hydroelectricity
Words: 506 / Pages: 2 .... made more efficient by the establishment of the Federal Power Commission in 1920. Although additional hydroelectric plants were being built, the simultaneous development of larger and more cost-efficient steam-power plants made it obvious that only very large and costly hydroelectric installations could compete effectively, and that the federal government would have to assume a major share in their construction. Motivated by the search for the multiple use of water resources, including navigation, flood control, and irrigation, in addition to power production, the Tennessee Valley Authority, or TVA, started government participation in large-scale w .....

Aerosol Spray Cans
Words: 583 / Pages: 3 .... pressure in the can, but there is a
layer of free gas above the liquid. As the can empties liquefied gas vaporizes
to fill the space.
The valve is normal held shut by the pressure in the can, and by the
coil spring directly below the valve stem. When the push button is pressed, it
forces the valve stem down in its housing, uncovering a small a small hole which
leads up through the stem to the nozzle in the button. This allows the product
to be forced up the dip tube by the gas pressure in the can. The nozzle is
shaped to give a spray or a continuous stream.
To produce a fine mist, a propellant is used which mixes with the
product. The two leave th .....

leukemia cannot fight of infections.

Dna Replication
Words: 2173 / Pages: 8 .... strand will be formed.
Because of the DNA “unzipping”, there will be two single strands of DNA. Hence, because there is two single strands of DNA, there will be two new daughter strands synthesized. However, each of these daughter cells is synthesized in different ways.
The first strand of DNA is built by simply adding nucleotides to its end. This strand grows inward towards the replication fork as the DNA molecule unzips. This strand ends with a hydroxide (OH) group and is called the 3` prime or 3`end. The enzyme that catalyzes this process is called DNA polymerase.
The second strand is built by having a polymerase jump ahead on t .....
