Egg hunt

(or gods) to reach a heavenly state while others believe in logic. While some creation myths are very similar, others are very different. For example, one Chinese creation myth tells of their creator, Pangu, being born of a cosmic egg. Pangu stood up and split the egg in half. This created Heaven and Earth. The Iroquois’ “The World on the Turtle’s Back” and N. Scott Momaday’s…

“ that the first place winner for the 2016 Awestruck Pageant goes to Miss Ostrich!” Her eyes welled with tears as she received the mystery grand prize, a hard boiled egg. “Thank you.” Miss Ostrich cried, “Thank you all so much. It has been such a great honor to be here.” With that final statement she left, holding the hard boiled egg delicately in her…

The purpose of this experiment is to learn how to prepare albumin from egg white and to understand the basics of protein fractionation using ammonium sulfate. Ovalbumin is the major protein of egg white and is fractionated by means of ammonium sulfate precipitation. The properties of the solvent system will dissolve the protein and greatly impact solubility. In total, there are four major factors that affect protein solubility: ionic strength, pH, temperature, and dielectric constant of solvents…

Osmosis and Diffusion Egg Lab In this lab, an egg is used as a representation of an actual cell, the shell being the cell wall, and the yolk being the nucleus, which like an actual cell also expands when placed in a substance like water, and shrinks when placed in a thick substance like corn syrup. I hypothesize that water will make the egg hypotonic, which means that the cell is swollen due to an excess of water in its environment and corn syrup will make the egg hypertonic, which is the…

They believed Brahma came from nothing, by thought he created water where his semen was in and that grew into a golden egg. When he was born, by thought again, the halves became earth and heaven. The Bible’s story of creation is different but it talks about a superior being from the beginning. The Bible says god created the universe and human beings in 7 days. Some people…

Pickles are a staple in American culture. They are put on numerous different foods such as hamburgers, hotdogs, sandwiches, chips (pickle flavoring), and even eaten by themselves. While pickles have become an American staple, where did they first originate and how did they grow in popularity? The word pickle originates from the Dutch word “… pekel or northern German pókel, which means ‘salt’ or ‘brine’…” (Avey). The origin of the pickle, however, is not found in Germany or the Netherlands, but…

resurrection of Jesus Christ, but today is twisted into a holiday about the Easter bunny, and finding as much candy as you can. “ All major branches of Christianity observe the holiday. Today, other than church attendance, the holiday often involves Easter Eggs for toys and candy as well as the imagery of bunnies and rabbits” (“Easter.” religionfacts.com 17 Nov. 2016.). Today people have lost touch of the true meaning of the holiday. Instead of honoring the day they get wrapped up in the world's…

Affects Protein Detection In Eggs Whites Introduction: Research Objective and Hypothesis The objective of this experiment is to gain a better understanding on how temperature affects how much protein is detected. Understanding how temperature affects the detection of protein can be used to more accurately measure the amount of protein in foods and supplements needed for life. This knowledge can benefit nutritionists and the general population. Hypothesis: If the egg whites are subjected to…

Introduction A. Eggs are widely known as a functional food because they are high in protein, modest in calories, low in cost and can be used versatilely in many different types of dishes1. They represent a complete food, meaning it contains all nine of the essential amino acids necessary for dietary needs2. Egg composition may vary slightly, but on average the macronutrient content of one egg is low in carbohydrates and high in proteins and lipids2. High protein foods, like eggs, have been known…

Ot the surface, egg donation appears to be a win-win situation. A woman has the opportunity to help an individual conceive a child, and in exchange gets reimbursed for their service. A similar, successful type of donation has been in place for a long time which is sperm donation. Sperm donors receive compensation and are able to use their bodies’ natural resources, so women should have the same opportunity. However, these two systems are very different: the egg donation process takes a longer…
