accumulation of hot air inside the house. Construction of solid high wall-fences around the house to provide privacy and security but it forbids exchange of air. Concrete or cemented floor surround the house increase the surface water and during a hot day, water vapour will formed. Water vapour is one of greenhouse gases that carry heat. Thus, home owners should aware the consequences of over-renovation of their homes may cause thermal discomfort. They should consult experts’ in house renovation…
system. In order to observe the internal organs of the fish, the fish firstly is euthanasiated with clove oil. The external anatomy of the fish has five fins; pectoral, pelvic, dorsal, anal and caudal fin, a cloaca is located right behind the anal fin and this is where the cut is made until the beginning of the head. The fillet is removed to expose the internal organs. The crucian carp anatomy is similar to that of the other vertebrates. The fish contains most of the internal…
One’s body is made of 70% of water that in which is the main component of the cells within one’s bodies. Within these cells, there are particles that move inside and outside through a semi-permeable membrane. This process is called diffusion. In diffusion, particles move in motion at a random speed from a high concentration to an area of low concentration until all of the molecules are dispersed evenly. It is important to remember that involvement with diffusion depends on the concentration. The…
The term ‘Water Tank’ generally refers to distinctive liquid retaining structure. It has been developed about 80 years ago and recognized as well-designed, efficient and economical unit for commercial as well as residential use. Also, it is inevitable part of water supply system, and extensively used for storage and processing of variety of liquid like material such as water, petroleum product, liquefied natural gas, chemical fluid and wastage of different forms. Underground water storage tanks…
Mexico, the Atlantic Coast and waters in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest, serving shellfish during the summer months creates a rise in the risk of spreading a food-borne illnesses due to Vibrio infections. This week, we'll briefly discuss how to cook and store shellfish according to ServSafe food safety guidelines. ServeSafe Food Safety and Vibrio Infections Two closely related bacteria cause Vibrio infections. These bacteria thrive in shellfish from warmer waters and most frequently sicken…
Tonic water is a carbonated liquid which is commonly used as a mixer for many alcoholic beverages such as Gin and Tonic. Tonic water is often used in mixed drinks as it has a very bitter taste, as a result of the chemical called Quinine. This chemical was once used as a drug to treat Malaria and is found in the bark of Cinchona trees (Yoquinto, 2012). To assist in swallowing the drug, it was put into tonic water. A British Officer in colonial India during the 1800's found that mixing alcohol…
damaging the internal validity of an experiment. Some confounding variables in our experiment are the temperature in the can when we flip it because we actually couldn’t tell what it was, and the fact that we couldn’t control the fact that there should be exactly 10 mL of the liquid in the can because no matter what we tried, it will take much more time than we had to fill the can with precisely 10 mL of the liquid. Our procedures are that we first are going to fill up our pie tin with cold…
density of the water density is a primary factor of the object’s buoyancy. Buoyancy is the ability or tendency of an object to float in water. I will show this effect by adding a measured amount of salt to purified water. What factors impact buoyancy? The object’s density versus the density of the water the object is placed in. So if the object is less dense it will float, if denser than water it will sink. The factors of this experiment will be the eggs (object in water), the water, and salt…
Chemistry Internal Assessment Introduction: The experiment is to conclude which aqueous solution of the chlorides has the highest boiling point out of the five that has been tested.there will be five different chloride compounds mixed into water and be heated till it is boiling. The interest for this topic comes from how intermolecular forces affect the molecules by either repulsing and attracting molecules due to polarity. This idea interests me because when cooking and boiling salt water,…
This disease prevents the fish from fighting any other disease it might catch and begins to deteriorate the internal organs. To protect the interest of the salmon farm industry the government allows the farms to keep the information pertaining to the salmon confidential. Farms just poor out disease and pathogens and wild fish just swim through it. The most obvious…
