Water Scarcity Essay

fastest way to cool a soda? There are multiple factors that could effect in this equation. Would it be faster to put it in the refrigerator where the cold air would achieve the soda’s desired temperature, would ice cool it faster, or maybe an ice and water bath would do the trick? There are multiple ways to test this experiment, but only one way to find out. There are a couple different ways how cold temperatures can remove the warm air from the lukewarm soda. The first of these is conduction.…

Mouse, and watch the fireworks at the end of the night. I love Disney, so this would probably be my favorite thing to do in Los Angeles. I would also go to the beach because I love the beach. I could play in the sand and dig a big hole, play in the water, or just relax. They even have a yoga beach where all the people there are doing yoga. Lastly, I would take a hike up to the Hollywood sign so I could enjoy nature and the…

The resistance that is encountered is dependent on the body tissue that is traversed by the electrical current. Generally, tissues with high fluid electrolyte concentrations will conduct electricity the best. Bone is the most resistant tissue to electrical flow. Skin impedes electrical current, but resistance is dependent on the skin's thickness and moisture. Wet skin can reduce the contact resistance of the body. The degree of electricity-induced injury is also determined by which tissues are…

A marine biologist studies organisms found in the ocean. As a marine biologist, you conduct research on the organisms found in their home, the ocean. For example,a marine biologist may study how different species in the ocean interact with one another. A person with this career may additionally study how these marine animals have evolved over time or even conduct research on a newly found species. A marine biologist collects samples of marine animals to conduct tests to find out how these…

and down during the process of breathing, and I know that when I inhale, my lungs expand, and when I exhale, my lungs contract. I know that a positive buoyancy causes an object to float, and I know that the transfer of energy from the wind to the water on an ocean shore causes waves. These concepts are tangible, but connecting them together like pieces of a puzzle makes the idea abstract. This class opened my eyes to one of many connections between my body and the earth. The main connection I…

Environmental Struggle; Is Pollution Worth It Greg Graffin, a lead singer of the band “Bad Religion,” once said, “ So much of the habitat destruction and pollution is based on the simple principle that we somehow have been given free license over other species to degrade the planet.” Even though he’s speaking his mind, he makes a valid point about how we’ve been dumping our trash in the ocean and allowing factories to release gases and polluting our air. I am one of those people who cares about…

A World of Plastic In the hour long documentary, TOXIC: Garbage Island by Thomas Morton, a group of adults venture to the North Pacific gyre for 21 days to find a spinning current with tons of chemicals and plastics that will not biodegrade in order to show society how serious plastic pollution is. Throughout the documentary, the VICE team documents the plastic that has polluted the Pacific Ocean. The main argument that is used in the documentary is that most Americans do not think about…

Horseshoe crabs are an important part of the ecology of coastal communities. During the nesting season, especially in the Mid-Atlantic States, horseshoe crab eggs become the major food source for migrating birds. Over 50% of the diet of many shorebird species consists of horseshoe crab eggs. Many bird species in Florida have been observed feeding on horseshoe crab eggs. In addition, many fish species rely on horseshoe crab eggs for food. Horseshoe crabs are currently exploited in three…

However, improvements for this experiment may be to use a higher percentage of sodium bicarbonate to get rid of emulsions and hydrochloric acid, as well as use a water bath to speed up the evaporation time. Another improvement may be to use alumina as a filtering agent to get rid of the additional byproducts. Friedel-Crafts acylation occurs as a quality control assay for steroids. The alkene groups in a 25:1 mixture…

hypothesis stated, If a lifesaver is mixed into water then, the time it takes to dissolve will decrease because by stirring or shaking causes the solute particles to separate from one another and spread out quicker among the solvent particles. My hypothesis was supported. For the mixed lifesaver, at 2 minutes 12 seconds, the lifesaver got smaller and turned the water red, at the final time, 9 minutes 25 seconds the lifesaver dissolved in the water completely. For the untouched lifesaver, it’s…
