Industrialized agriculture has been considering as a method to solve the world hungry problem. In the United States, industrialized agriculture is dominating the American agriculture. Pesticide has been widely used in industrialized agriculture in the world to control pest which can greatly prevent the corps from rot. It seems that the pesticide is necessary in the modern age to solve the hunger problems. Yet, examinations on the reliability of long term use of pesticide must be started. One of…

Which contains a single compound system and A complex system through the emulsion liquid membrane emphasis was placed…
The history of Coca-Cola its began in 1886 by a pharmacist Dr. John S. Pemberton from Atlanta U.S. He creates a characteristic tasting soft drink. Dr. John S. Pemberton create a syrup for his pharmacy and accidentally that syrup was mixed with carbonated water and at that moment Coca-Cola soft drink was created. Everyone in his neighborhood that tried that syrup liked it very much. The partner and bookkeeper Frank M. Robinson create the name and the designing that is still used today. The…
. (10 points) Discuss the classifications of wastes. There are different classifications of wastes: degradable, dissipating, conservative, and solid. Degradable wastes that can transformed to other compounds. An example of degradable wastes are food products. When food products are inputted into the oceans they are broken down by microorganism like into their organic compounds. Dissipating wastes can be dissipated or diluted. Heat is a dissipated waste that once it enters the ocean it…
This paper explores the reasons behind the functional extinction of the Eastern Oyster in the New York Harbor, the ecological services that the oyster provided to the Harbor’s ecosystem and the steps to bring back this keystone species. When Europeans first came to the New World, oysters were so abundant around New York City that it was considered the Oyster Capital of the World (Driscoll, 2011) but within 300 years this title would be no more as the oyster became functionally extinct due to…
Climate change has always been a major problem for most of the countries all over the world, and it is now threatening our planet.

But not only that, changes in climate are also caused by human activities, including deforestation, water pollution,.. turning this into a global problem. Despite that fact, human can’t still…
INTRODUCTION Air, water and soil constitute our natural environment but with the increasing population and the prevalent lifestyle, there is a steady strain on the air we breathe, the water we drink and the soil or land on which we live and which provides us livelihood.The Xenobiotic compounds undergo a number of processes in the environment and interact with living entities i.e., cells, organs and tissues, and cause significant impairment of physiological functions. Environmental biotechnology…
Sugar Cane Sugar Cane is found is many parts of the world and can adapt to all seasons as it is a long duration crop but grows best in wetland biomes. It needs a moist environment to survive because the crop remains in the soil all year long. It is one of the world's most water-intensive and thirstiest crops and as such its production can affect environmentally sensitive regions such as the Mekong Delta and Atlantic Forest. Production of sugar cane in many parts of the world has caused…
The forward osmosis (FO) process is an emerging separation/desalination process. It is rapid process compared to other membrane processes such as reverse osmosis. The physical phenomenon of forward osmosis (FO) can demonstrated as the motion of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane due to difference in osmotic pressure driving force through the membrane. The membrane enables only water molecules to pass through when salt molecules are rejected. The forward desalination technique…
