Evolution Of Immunity And The Invertebrates
Words: 1152 / Pages: 5 .... when hey were
just beginning to evolve. His studies opened up the new field of comparative
immunology. Comparative immunologists studied the immune defenses of past and
current creatures. They gained further insight into how immunity works.
The most basic requirement of an immune system is to distinguish between
one's own cells and "non-self" cells. The second job is to eliminate the non-
self cells. When a foreign object enters the body, several things happen. Blood
stops flowing, the immunity system begins to eliminate unwanted microbes with
phagocytic white blood cells. This defensive mechanism is possessed by all
animals with an innate syst .....

Meth Labs
Words: 2052 / Pages: 8 .... 8 hours. After the initial rush, there is typically a state of high agitation that in some individuals can lead to violent behavior.
Contrary to the stereotype of rural areas as idyllic, protected environments in which to raise families, substance abuse is as great a problem as it is in the cities. One must realize that rural communities vary in characteristics considerably, which complicates our understanding of rural substance use problems and increases the need for prevention, intervention, and treatment programs. For too long, the problems of alcohol and drug abuse in rural areas have received little attention from the federal level. As nat .....

A Fabulous Analysis Of The Flamboyantly Gay
Words: 605 / Pages: 3 .... or not.
In order to appreciate the theory I will soon explain one must first recognize a simple concept regarding the human mind. As most will agree, bottled emotions do more harm than good. The act of keeping feelings inside tends to create a “pressurized” effect on the brain, overloading the psyche with pent-up “garbage”. As is the case in any good romance movie, the onlooker with bottled emotions waits until the end to release everything, dramatically and emotionally releasing all her pressurized tensions. Sure, Hollywood is not the best place to get your life morals, but a lesson really can be learned here, and the same lesson can be a .....

Epidural In Labor
Words: 566 / Pages: 3 .... Having experienced childbirth ourselves, we have great compassion for women in painful labors. However, we also feel a responsibility to mothers and their babies to explore issues concerning the use of epidural anesthesia in labor issues that are seldom discussed prenatally.
Several factors make the use of epidurals potentially hazardous. The Physician’s Desk Reference cautions that local anesthetics – the type used in epidurals – rapidly cross the placenta. When used for epidural blocks, anesthesia can cause varying degrees of maternal, fetal, and neonatal toxicity which can result in the following side effects: hypotension, urina .....

Nature Vs. Nurture
Words: 595 / Pages: 3 .... Zanna and Susan Pack (1975) had college women write descriptions of
themselves for a tall, unattached, male senior whom they anticipated
meeting. Those expecting to meet a man who liked nontraditional women
described themselves as relatively nontraditional. Those led to think he
favored traditional gender roles described themselves as more traditionally
feminine” (Handout - Diversity and Community).
I believe that one's immediate family, rather than society, has a
greater influence on gender roles. For example, girls who group up without
a mother or older sisters tend to be less feminine because all they have
are male role models. Another exa .....

The Human Cloning Controversy
Words: 1356 / Pages: 5 .... . . . They would be carried and delivered after nine months by a human mother . . . Consequently, a clone twin will be [years] younger than the original person. (1)
Whether or not scientists should or should not clone humans is a tough question to answer. Legally, are scientists able to make clones? The answer is no. Should scientists be able to make a headless human? (body parts) Yes, as long as no law exists banning headless humans. Before going into this controversy, some background about what has happened in cloning would be useful. Two astonishing feats have been achieved in the scientific world. One is the cloning of a sheep named Dolly, .....

PyroTechnics
Words: 484 / Pages: 2 .... not all explosives are . Class A explosives (high explosives) are materials like dynamite and Primacord which may detonate even if unconfined. Pyrotechnic special effects materials are Class B explosives. They will burn, but not explode unless confined. Examples are black powder and pellet powder, safety fuses, igniters, igniter cord, fuse lighters, Class B special fireworks, and Class B composite solids propellants. Class C explosives are common fireworks. Note that short lengths of Primacord may be classified as Class C under certain conditions. Both Class B and C explosives are also called low explosives.
All pyrotechnic materials and other .....

The Overpopulation Of The Snow Goose In North America
Words: 1801 / Pages: 7 .... such as Texas and Louisiana. Their populations number in the millions. The third sub species is the Greater Snow Goose. They nest in the same marshes as the others except they migrate down the Atlantic Coast into the Carolinas and that vicinity. All three species have exploded in numbers since the 1950’s. Researchers have done a lot of study on the numbers and the degradation but may need to do more studies on the impact to other species and look for other options to control the populations.
Population Trends
The numbers of all "light" colored geese has been on the rise since data was first collected. The Lesser Snow Goose (LSGO) has drasti .....

Acting To Save Mother Earth
Words: 500 / Pages: 2 .... making new paper from old paper uses up much less energy than making paper from trees. Finally, this process also reduces the air pollution of paper-making by 95 percent.
Another earth saving habit is "precycling" waste. This means buying food and other products packaged only in materials that will decay naturally or that can be recycled. The idea is to prevent unrecyclable materials from even entering the home. For instance, 60 of the 190 pounds of plastic-especially styrofoam-each American uses a year are thrown out as soon as packages are opened. Be kind to your planet by buying eggs, fast food, and other products in cardboard instead o .....

Nickel Metal Hydrive Battery For Electric Vehicals
Words: 610 / Pages: 3 .... an alkaline medium consisting of 30% by weight KOH in water. When charging, Ni(OH)2 at the positive electrode becomes oxidized and the metal hydride becomes reduced. In fact, the hydrogen which was separated from water come to react with the metal in the negative electrode to form MH. On the other hand, the hydroxyl ion ( from water) reacts with Ni(OH)2 at the positive electrode to form NiOOH. Ni now change from +2 to +3.
Ni(OH)2 +OH = NiOOH + H2O + e
From equation (1) and (2) there is no net change in electrolyte quantity or concentration over the charge and discharge cycle. We can see that it is different from other alkaline electrode such a .....
