explain the effects of rainfall on St Croix “Heavier runoff and snow-melt will alter the structure of the river by limiting how much sunlight can reach the bottom due to more water laden with sand. Heavier runoff causes chemicals like Nitrogen and Phosphorus to enter the river systems. These chemicals could enter the St. Croix from surrounding agricultural plots and increase productivity to unhealthy…
phonics in middle school. And I remember that that paper about communication strategies said to avoid sarcasm and I don’t think I can give that aspect of myself. I know the human body is made up of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus, but mine is composed of all of those elements along with Sarcasm. And I know I just said that I give others respect, but sarcasm is part of the package, and it shows regardless of whatever emotion I…
HISTORICAL BREADS from AROUND THE World With every great meal or snack, people are always looking for a little something on the side to compliment their meal. One of the most sought after foods just happens to be a food item that has been around for centuries: BREAD. There are thousands of different types of bread in the world , including , French, Anpan, Arepa, Bammy, and Bolani. French bread , dating back to the middle of the 19th century , originated in Vienna , Austria. The bread was…
purpose of this experiment was to figure out what types of water would have an effect and what that effect would be on seed germination. Background information Plants need nutrients to survive. These nutrients can include nitrogen, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sulphur and iron. The plant absorbs these nutrients through the roots from the soil. These thing aren’t the only things plants need to survive though, they need things like water, sugar, and salt. The roots can allow many…
transitions have been studied in detail at high temperature. One of them is Silicon Dioxide. As such, it is possible for silicon dioxide to have the same structure when the chemistry is completely different. Since iron is trivalent and phosphorus is pentavalent, an equation of the following can be written to explain the chemical substitution which takes place to maintain the same symmetry: Here, the total charge on each side has a charge of 8+ and…
Sport nutrition plays an essential role in sports and athlete performance. When it comes to nutrition, there is no restriction in age or gender. All athletes need nutrition in order to achieve and perform at their highest potential in sports and fitness. Over the past four decades, there has been a significant increase in female participation in sports. In that significant increase of female participation, is has been a similar increase in sports-related injuries and conditions (Matzkin, 2015).…
test may be indicated to rule out any genetic or hormonal causes: fasting lipid panel, thyroid function, serum leptin, adrenal function, possibly karyotype, growth hormone secretion and function, assessment of reproductive hormones, serum calcium, phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone levels (Schwarz,…
periodic table, every element had to be discovered. Elements such as gold, tin, lead, and copper have been widely known and used since ancient times, however, the first discovery of an element wasn’t made until 1649 by Hennig Brand when he discovered phosphorus. Over the next 200 years, chemists would acquire the basic knowledge of the physical properties and compounds of elements leading to the discovery of 63 elements by 1869. With more elements being discovered scientists began to recognize…
What if there was an up and coming innovation that could save the world? Would you support it? Well there is such a thing. It has been around for a few years, but only now does it have the potential to do good on a worldwide scale. This innovation is called algae biofuel. Algae biofuel is a fuel just like gasoline or diesel, but instead of being mined from the ground causing irreparable damage, it is grown in a pond and actually has positive side effects on the environment. Algae Biomass…
It was on the unforgettable day of March 11, 2011 that nineteen thousand people perished in a catastrophic event known as the Japanese tsunami. The assertion made by Aaron Kong, "It is human action and not nature that should be blamed for the destruction of our world and the suffering and death of so many people everywhere," is partly correct in the sense that humans are indeed responsible for the misery of many people. However, humans are not completely to blame because nature also plays a…
