The Language Of The Cell
Words: 1502 / Pages: 6 .... a large number
of cells. Rudolf Virchow (1821-1902) propounded this idea, that the cell is a
basic structure and functional unit for all living organisms.
A cell can be a wide range of shapes and sizes, although most cells are
microscopic. Inside a cell membrane, a nucleus can be seen. The nucleus is the
control center of the cell. Between the nucleus and the membrane, there is a
polysaccharide matrix called the cytoplasm, where organelles can be found. The
organelles are attached to a framework. The cell’s cytoskeleton.
Every living cell has the ability to detect signals from it’s
environment. The signals are usually in the form of ch .....

Alternative Energy

needed in a day. In order to generate "high grade" heat, intense enough to convert water into high-pressure steam which can then
be used to turn electric generators there must be another method. The concentrated beams of sunlight are collected in a device
called a solar furnace, which acts on the same principles as a large magnifying glass. The solar furnace takes the sunlight from a
large area and by the use of lenses and mirrors can focus the light into a very small area. Very elaborate solar furnaces have
machines that angle the mirrors and lenses to the sun all day. This system can provide sizeable amounts of electricity and c .....

rebound."(Associated Press 1993) The vibrations can range from barely noticeable
to catastrophically destructive. Six kinds of shock waves are generated in the
process. Two are classified as body waves—that is, they travel through the
earth's interior—and the other four are surface waves. The waves are further
differentiated by the kinds of motions they impart to rock particles. Primary or
compressional waves (P waves) send particles oscillating back and forth in the
same direction as the waves are traveling, whereas secondary or transverse shear
waves (S waves) impart vibrations perpendicular to their direction of travel. P
waves always t .....

Essay On Global Warming
Words: 776 / Pages: 3 .... the process even more. Over the past 200 years the emissions of greenhouse gases have been increasing due to the increase in technology that humans have developed (example, factories). These human-induced gases include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone depleting substances such as CFCs, also known as Chlorofluorocarbons, hydrofluorocarbons, and perfluorocarbons. These gases are generated a number of human activities such as fossil fuel combustion, waste disposal in landfills, the use of a refrigerator, numerous agricultural and industrial activities, and the cutting down of numerous forests.
These human practices have a .....

The Great Imposters

MASTERS OF DISGUISE
Things aren't always as they seem, and nowhere is this more true than
in nature, where dozens of animals (and plants) spend their time
masquerading as others. So clever are their disguises that you've probably
never known you were being fooled by spiders impersonating ants, squirrels
that look like shrews, worms copying sea anemones, and roaches imitating
ladybugs. There are even animals that look like themselves, which can also
be a form of impersonation. The phenomenon of mimicry, as it's called
by biologists, was first noted in the mid-1800s by an English naturalist,
Henry W. Bates. Watching but .....

Cobalt

expensive metal that is used in the manufacture of very many expensive alloys.
Cobalt-iron alloys have very unique and special magnetic properties. For
example, Hyperco is used as the nucleus in strong electromagnets. Alloys
containing titanium, aluminum, cobalt and nickel can be made to become
permanently magnetic. One alloy, called Stellite, is an alloy of cobalt,
chromium, tungsten, and molybdenum. This alloy is extremely hard and keeps its
hardness at extreme temperatures. It has many uses: cutting tools are made of
it along with gas turbines. Zaire is the world¹s largest .....
