Thermometer

where you really wish that you didn’t have a baseball game. One of those days when your neighborhood feels like a desert. But I had to get up anyway in the smoldering heat. Our A/C was running full boar and it sounded like a bucking bull but the thermometer stills read 85. I went to take a shower. When I hopped in I practically had a heart attack or whatever. We were using so much energy for the A/C that our water heater shut down. I hopped out of the cold water, dried off, and got dressed…

The author of All the Bright Places, Jennifer Niven, is relatively new to young adult literature. Out of Niven’s many works of literature, All the Bright Places, is her first work with the central focus toward a younger audience. Niven is no stranger to the dark side of mental health portrayed in this work. Niven has had first- hand experience with suicide as she has said in the author’s note, “Several years ago, a boy I knew and loved killed himself. I was the one who discovered him”(Niven 381)…

The aim of this study was to investigate the optimal temperature for α-Amylase to catalyse the hydrolysis of starch. After the implementation of the experiment, it was established that the hypothesis, that the ability of α-Amylase to act upon large linear carbohydrate polymers in starch will prove most effective at 37°C (the optimum human body temperature), was supported by the observed data. The hypothesis was justified based on the observation that the overall average of average colour…

conditions in a changing environment. This process is called homeostasis. The Human Homeostasis Gizmo™ allows you to explore how the human body stays at a nearly constant temperature in different conditions. Notice the Air temp. and Body temp. thermometers representing the air temperature and body temperature. 1. What is the initial air temperature? _32 degrees F_____ 2. What is the initial body temperature? __99 degrees F__ 3. Next to each factor listed below, write “increase,”…

refractometer. 10) The remaining solution was poured into a 100ml flask and the micro-distillation apparatus with an adapter with four flasks was equipped. 11) The product was distilled by using the setup in graph(B.3). When the temperature shown in the thermometer reach 110, four flasks were turning at each 5 degrees Celcius increase interval to retrieve the product distilled in each mini flasks. 12) The refractive index of the product in mini flasks was determined by using the Abbe…

difference of boiling point between ether and 2-methyl-2-pentanol is less than 100oC, so this method cannot be used. Therefore, when the ether was distilled off, the alcohol vapor was carried over by ether vapor causing the lowered reading of the thermometer. After the ether layer solution was transferred over…

circumstances and is therefore caught in a situation that elicits negative emotion. Cohen (2013) looked at the effects of emotional suppression in cancer patients. A sample of 241 cancer patients, aged 21-87 was taken and each completed the Distress Thermometer (DT) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). In addition, they also completed the Courtauld Emotional Control scale (CEC) in order to measure emotional suppression. Though higher emotional suppression seemed to control…

Many people know about Martin Luther King Jr. because of his famous speech “I have a Dream.” However, not a lot of people know about his great masterpiece, “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” which was written on April 16, 1963. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote this letter while he was in jail. He had been arrested in Birmingham, Alabama because he was marching in a peaceful protest for civil rights for African-Americans without a permit. Several local religious leaders were opposed to him and told him…

THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF MEDICAL ERRORS IN HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONS The issue of an efficient healthcare service delivery by the National Health Service (NHS) and other healthcare providers has consistently occupied the first position amongst other objectives to be maximized by the government, healthcare organization, and the patient, this is due to several factors such reduction in cost of service delivery; increasing competition amongst healthcare service providers; quest to raise life…

Performance Task 1 Fourth grade science helps reveal how the world works. Fourth graders should understand the importance of curiosity, honesty, and openness in discovering science. This is a time for them to question how the world works. In doing so they can use the scientific method to better understand. Learning the steps of the scientific method will help them with the numerous experiments we will do throughout the year. Knowing first off to identify the problem, then to ask a question…
