Acid-base homeostasis

Almost all of us have to deal with cough and cold, especially during winter time, which can be really annoying, but beside that, if you don’t treat them properly and on time, they can turn into an extremely irritating and dangerous disease. Dry cough is really annyoing and uncomfortable which makes you feel worse than you should. In most common cases, the people with cold and cough are always seeking for pills and syrups in the pharmacies. Probably, they don’t know that there is easy and…

There are several physical and chemical methods, of which the simplest method involves the reduction of the metal salt AgNO3 by NaBH4 in water. Wiley and his coworkers synthesized three different shapes of silver nanoparticles using chemical method, in which ethylene glycol used as both solvent and reducing agent [5]. This group synthesized cubic silver nanoparticles by reduction of silver nitrate (AgNO3) with ethylene glycol in the presence of Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and HCl. After synthesis…

1. Fit the stem of a funnel inside the short end of a straw. Push the funnel in as far as it will go. Securely tape the straw to the funnel. Repeat for the second straw and funnel. 2.Push a straw-funnel assembly through the hole near the bottom of each container so that the funnels are on the inside of the containers. Adjust the straw-funnel assemblies so that the funnels face up. Put some modeling clay around the hole, on the outside of the container, to hold the funnel in place. 3. Start by…

More conjugated compounds absorb higher wavelengths/lower energies because as the wavelength increases the HOMO/LUMO gap (ΔE) decreases which is due to the compression of multiple molecular orbitals (ψ). According to Klein, the Ketchup stain (lycopene) on a shirt and upon application of bleach (NaClO), it breaks lycopene’s conjugation, therefore causing a decrease in conjugation; which directly correlates to the stain no longer being visible to the eye but when illuminating the shirt with…

compromise of lactate acid and acid- base balance from a high intensity exercise. The factors that avoid this change in the homeostatic limits are PO2 and PCO2, and pH. Which are maintained form increase in oxygen delivery to the alveoli and CO2 exhalation from the body (King, 2018). Acid- Base balance are affected by hydrogen ions which are formed from the lost of electrons. When a molecule releases hydrogen ion it is determined as acid, and when it is bind with hydrogen ion it is a base.…

Introduction Ascorbic acid is a form of vitamin C that is used by the body as a means of promoting healing of cuts and wounds, as well as boosting the immune system and as such aiding in the fight against infections. Ascorbic acid does not occur naturally and is formed by carrying out a variety of chemical reactions on corn syrup. The chemical formula for ascorbic acid is C6H8O6 and is similar to glucose which has a formula of C6H1206, this closeness in structure allows most animals (excluding…

America has now become known as the power house of the world. We hold the best military power there is. At first it wasn’t that way. During our revolution, we were only farmers who had muskets and pitch forks. Through the help of allies we were able to beat the British and claim our victory and independence. There were many other wars that would happen before us, the U.S. would become the military power house of the world. After WWII in 1939. Then the US decided it was their job to be the police…

surrounded by guards and not everyone is allowed in. It kind of reminds me of The Hunger Games community except were not out killing each other. Roughly a third of military families live on bases, with many more living just outside the post in the vast civilian life. About 100,000 military children attend on-base schools. Military families shop at discounted grocery and department stores, see dedicated doctors and pharmacists, leave their…

the modified game meant that all children had plenty of chances to practice batting in a game-like situation and the children who didn’t get a hit get more chances to practice their skills, while the children who did hit the ball are running the bases. The reason that I would have the children figure out how they best hit the ball with the technique (e.g. timing) is because it will help to empower the children, which is important because it helps the children to have a sense of control over…

U.S. Military Bases abroad: a bane or a boon? The United States of America with over 800 bases overseas has become a “base nation” as David Vine calls it in his famous book Base Nation: How U.S. Military Bases Abroad Harm America and the World. The problem is that no one knows how many of these military bases the U.S. have. The rough estimate is somewhere between 750 and 800, however, the official records by the Department of Defense do not show the real number because of the different terms…
