Hybrid and electric vehicles are the future of transportation. CO2 levels rising, causing such harm to the environment from gasoline powered vehicles, but not everyone is for the alternative energy vehicles. We love our fast cars that are able to travel far distances without having to worry about recharging up when it only takes a few minutes to get a few gallons of gas. However, if we don’t try and give the alternative energy vehicles a chance; who knows how long it will take for the pollution…

Analysis of Adenosine receptor blockage’s effects on the electrophysiology of HCTP/OR producing neurons of the Hypothalamus – receptor blockage mediated by Caffeine Introduction In this experiment, the quantification of firing rate changes on a specific neural sub-group will be analyzed via whole cell patch-clamping and the application of the common psychoactive drug-caffeine. The significance of quantifying the electrical signaling of the chosen neuron is to proportionally quantify the…

Acidic rain plays a key role in how rapidly things erode and die in our environment whether people notice it or not. Many are uneducated on this topic which makes it more dangerous to us and our surroundings.

Their targets are ion channels and receptors in the neuromuscular system. The venom of Conus geographus contains high-affinity peptides that act on voltage-sensitive calcium channels, sodium Channels, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, acetylcholine receptors, and vasopressin…

point of attack made it difficult for enemies to counter attack the precision and accuracy of the cannon fires. The battery had the ability to respond to rapidly after being openly engaged by the Mexican Army. The precision of the cannon fires was capable of deadly force which was displayed when a Mexican General attempted to flank the position of the cannons to disrupt the battery. The fly artillery was capable of stopping the flanking Mexican cavalry in their tracks with precise cannon fire…

person? Cost of batteries The cost of the batteries is extremely high in price. They increase all the time because of the materials they use to make the battery stronger. One battery is around 20 thousand dollars. They last approximately 8-10 years. The batteries are all different shapes and sizes some big some small but the majority of them are big. Most of them cover the whole floor length of the car others fill where the trunk would be. The bad thing about having the batteries in the trunk…
