Does a purpose for life truly exist? Have you found…

6. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION All the results generated from the present study are represented in the respective tables. The powdered gum of Acacia arabica was subjected to preliminary organoleptic evaluation. The scanty availability of information on this plant facilitates the study on it. The attempt is made to study the Pharmacognostical, phytochemical and pharmacological activities of gum of the plant. The study was divided into three major parts viz. • Pharmacognostical studies •…

Natural energy is important not only to the living things but also to the earth as a whole. They come from natural resources such as water, sun, air, and minerals. Conservation of natural energy is essential because it allows us to save things that can be used anytime when we need them in order for us to stay alive. We cannot surely survive without air to breathe, water to drink and food to eat. Natural energy itself produces a vast advantage on the part of the people. There are two classes of…

Evaporation Model, Kohler modification and Surface Phenomena The process of microdroplet evaporation is associated with the mass and heat transport through the microdroplet surface [1,2] . [2]: [ 1] Where a is the droplet radius, Pa and Pcc are the saturated vapor pressures near the droplet surface and far from the droplet respectively. Ta and Tcc are the temperatures at the microdroplet surface and the reservoir. D is the diffusion constant of vapor in the ambient gas. M and are the…

Happy feet, soaked in the sand at Paradise beach. I told you so! These words I heard here over and over again! I reached my hotel to check out and decided to stay at Auro Ville. I had heard so much about the place and wanted to check it out. But I reached late in the evening and I was told that the Matrimandir shuts early. I found a basic shack and a home stay to stay owned by Senthil, a guy in his late 20s. He and his grandmother were my host. He told me this was not a luxurious place, but…

the concept of climate change and the urban heat island effect? My understanding of the concept of climate change and the urban heat island effect is that they are both becoming more progressively harmful to our human health, the air we breathe, and water supply in our communities. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from auto and factory emissions acts as a blanket, trapping long-wave infrared energy coming off the earth making our planet much warmer. Most radiation is absorbed by the earth’s surface…

Unfortunately for Sopli, his journey ends long before the the other two travelers. The third crewmember, in a moment of fear, jumps into the water and drowns. His journey into the unknown ends with his drowning in the waters of the sea. “‘But he--he couldn’t swim. He was afraid of the water!’” (The Farthest Shore, 159). He who was utterly afraid of the water was equally terrified of the unknown. Sopli sought for personal gain rather than to understand, and when his time came he was…

shapeless--like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; you put water into a bottle it becomes the bottle; you put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Water can flow or it can crash.Be water, my friend.”-Bruce Lee. Water can obtain many ways, but the most dominated ways are tap, water that is usually received from a person's home that originates from a water plant or well on the personal property. Or bottled water, water that is purchased from a store and is bottled from a…

Vinyl chloride’s toxic effects are released via gas or liquid form. First, the route of exposure and how the human body is affected is explained. I have then explained the correlation between mechanisms of action and mode of action, and receiving professional care to eliminate the effects of vinyl chloride. The effects of vinyl chloride on the human body, and how Bradford Hill’s criteria for causation is explained last. [Heading 1] The route of exposure, based on Thomas Fuller (2015), will…

salt drifting through the air, filling my lungs. Everything seems simple. Next to the powerful ocean I am merely a speck oblivious to the complex beauty before me. In her 1955 essay “The Marginal World,” Rachel Carson stands at the edge where the water meets the soil and she tries to see a glimpse of the hidden beauty within a small pool. When she sees what is inside, she realizes the strength of the small creatures within it. With her discovery, Carson writes of her experience and uses various…
