Copper is a nonrenewable material. It comes from a mineral deposit that the time it takes to produce copper is too long to be concidered renewable. According to the Copper Alliance, copper is 100% recyclable. In fact, 9 million tones of copper is recycled each year. The recyclable process of copper uses 85% less energy than its original production. When a person is exposed to uncoated copper such as in coocking pans or drinking utenciles, copper can be toxic. Copper is a durable, tough…

produce minerals. These minerals are often used by an organism to harden or stiffen existing tissues, resulting in mineralized tissues. All kingdoms in taxonomy have members capable of this process, such as algae with silicates, invertebrates with carbonates, and vertebrates with calcium phosphates.…

2.2.3 Definition of Chelating Ligand EDTA From the above discussion, it can be concluded that chelating ligand EDTA is a process of reversible bond formation of a ligand that serves as chelating ( chelting agent or Chelator) that exist within the compound of EDTA. Basically, EDTA combines with some specific ion, so it causes the functions of EDTA as chelator. When the functions of EDTA as chelator, EDTA is a liquid ( solution) 2.3 Volcanic Ash Volcanic ash or sand is volcanic material debris…

of the chemical characteristics of water include pH, dissolved oxygen, and essential nutrients. Water pH: The pH level of water is influenced by the soil and rocks in the watershed and lake bed. Examples include calcite (CaCO3) which will release carbonates (CO32-) increasing the water’s pH, and minerals with sulfide that form sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and lower the pH (Caine, et al., 1987). From the Watershed Nature centre, it can be deduced that the PH of the water column is low and might contain…

Introduction The proper identification of microbes is an important practice in the medical field as well as other areas of research. Isolation of microbes from a mixed culture broth was performed with the finding of two different microbes; Escherichia coli and Sporosarcina ureae. The isolation process was performed by streaking a mixed culture onto a nutrient agar plate, then transferring the isolated cultures after incubation for biochemical testing. S. ureae is discussed below. Biography…

Cancers are managed through effective nutrition to supplement drugs, and it is generally believed that good nutrition is effective in preventing and minimizing cancer. Indeed, many plant products including complex carbohydrates have been proven to have bio-functional role, including anti-proliferative, autophagy and apoptosis activity [25,26]. Pectin, especially modified pectins have been found to possess anticancer activity. The most well-known pectin in cancer therapy is modified citrus pectin…

There are many mysteries the universe holds for us such as new galaxies, planets believed to have atmospheres with the possibilities of life, or even dwarf planets being discovered every day. I chose to write about the dwarf planet Ceres, according to Elizabeth Howell, (Space.com Contributor), “it was first discovered by Sicilian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi on Jan. 1, 1801, in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, the closest dwarf planet to Earth.” [1] I took a huge interest in finding out…

At the height of my removal from my present, realism did snatch me back and when it did I inquired of Alexis, “Did you bring your swimsuit?” “No.” Alexis said. “Don’t you want to swim in the cenote today?” I asked. “No. I’ve been here as an exchange student for almost a year, Grandma. Remember? I’ve swam in it before,” Alexis informed me; then removed my hand which had held onto her arm since the start of our treacherous decent. She placed her hand on my shoulder and looked…
