    There are certain cravings people experience in the world and many of them either help or hurt people. One of the most common yearnings people have is power.

How much power should they have in the first place? There is a common misconception that the more power you have, the more of a positive impact you are making.

    • 3 Pages

In one part he says that ‘impossible’ is used by people who “find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it.” This indicates that people use this word to do what they know they can in this world, and count everything they supposedly can’t as impossible. Ali says that they have the choice to validate more activities as…

    The results showed that a brown color change occurred in the mixture. The reasoning behind the color change in the mixture has to do with the chemical reaction that changes catechol into its oxidized form benzoquinone. This chemical reaction also requires oxygen, and an enzyme called polyphenol oxidase. The enzyme polyphenol oxidase is needed because it acts as the catalyst in the reaction.
