    Mount Vesuvius – Italy Hypothesis: The impact of active volcanoes overlooking settlements pose as huge threats. With eruptions of volcanoes comes mud, ash and rocks leading to settlements being buried under the debris. Volcanoes also lead to lava flows and ash-and-gas explosions which damage and destroy many settlements/towns around the volcano. In worst case scenarios, eruptions of volcanoes lead to death of people and wildlife. Therefore we can deduct that a volcano is a geographical problem…

    antigen binds to the coated antibodies. The excessive use of reagents to coat and wash the 96-well plate, and the 96-well plates it is self where the assay is performed on. Therefore, this article introduces 3D printing platforms for ELISA 96-well plates. With 3D plates, sensitivity of the assay increased as well as antibody binding time to the 96-well plates bay 2 to 3 folds of the traditional ELISA plate would take. This 3D 96-well pate provides a potential use of reduced volume of reagent and…

    submarines revealing a mid-Atlantic underwater mountain range, and a rift which started the theory of Plate Tectonics. Plate tectonics are used to explain the forming of mountains and even continents after the Pangaea. Plate tectonics explains that continents could have broken up, but there are 2 major theories on how. Catastrophist’s believe that a series of catastrophes caused things like plates, and the splitting of a supercontinent-Pangaea to happen in thousands of years. Uniformitarian’s…

    Question: How much bacteria will be found in each pedicure spa? Hypothesis: If I swab multiple pedicure spas using a test kit, streak plating, and colony morphology, then I will find the presence of bacteria is unsafe because cleaning practices are not followed properly. Procedures Determine the five pedicure spas in which you will obtain samples from Give each pedicure spa an anonymous name (Ex: Spa A, Spa B, Spa C) Type up an approval letter stating what you will be doing and what it is for…

    1. The Tasman Orogeny is represented in the basement rocks or eastern Australia. The rocks make up one third of Australia’s landmass. The orogeny extends along the eastern seaboard from the Tasmania in the south to Queensland in the north. In the early Paleozoic to early Mesozoic Australia was located on the eastern side of the Gondwana super continent. It was situated above Antarctica to the northeast of India. The tectonic processes that increased in the size of the…

    of flow. After the pressure difference is generated, the fluid is passed through a pressure recovery exit section. In this section, the 80% of the differential pressure generated at the constricted area, will be recovered. However, in the Orifice plate, all of the pressure loss is not recovered because of friction and turbulence losses in the…

    The plate tectonic theory says that there are plates covering the outer layer of the Earth and that they have been moving around as time goes on. It says that the Earth was once made up of a supercontinent, called Pangea, and as time went on the plates started to shift and eventually became what they are today. Several different scientists over a course of over 20 years have used each other’s work and pushed our scientific knowledge to develop the theory and give us our four different boundaries…

    proceed, and some planets in modernity still have active tectonism, such as Mars, Earth and Venus. Planets that are miniscule are found to cool off quicker due to to the proportion of volume to area, which causes smaller planets to desist to have plate tectonics faster than larger planets. The absence or presence of tectonism on a planet circumducts around the capacity of the planet and the amount of water on the planet. The outer planetary layer is limited of heat due to the brittle deformation…

    year-round fog, iconic Golden Gate Bridge, and cable cars, but is at risk for a major earthquake. San Francisco is built on the north american plate with it moving against a transform boundary, with the Pacific plate. A transform boundary is when two plates slide against each other, causing many earthquakes since San Francisco is on the west coast of the north american plate. One earthquake that you might’ve heard of is the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake, which was caused by the transform…
