- 3141: Dolphins 2
- ... a cow, the distant cousin of the dolphin, decided to take his life to the sea. This is shown by the findings of hooves on dolphin fossils. The appearance of dolphins has intrigued mans interest in the physical makeup of these mammals. Dolphins are carried by their mothers for twelve months before they are born. Once they are born, they immediately swim to the surface for their first breath of ...
- 3142: Development Of Charles Darwin
- ... his love of nature crept upon Darwin he absorbed it all the same, and with the help of his brother's love for chemistry, the two blended perfectly. The homogenization of Darwin's newly found interest in the physical sciences and analytical theory (helped by their father's gift of a chemical laboratory) with the slow and patient love of the natural world had repercussions felt around the globe. From playing ...
- 3143: Depression 2
- ... too. Ones sleeping may be altered. A person could have difficulty falling asleep, or getting up too early in the morning, or oversleeping (Kist 26). A big problem depressed people feel is a lost in interest. A person will stop doing activities they used to enjoy (Kist 26). Depression affects ones mental life too. People start to feel worthless, guilty, sad, and empty for a long time (Kist 26). This ...
- 3144: Coral Reefs 3
- ... reef in several ways: it impairs photosynthesis; it forces corals to expend energy cleansing themselves; and it can even bury them entirely. Studies showed corals only 4 kilometres from each other grew at dramatically different rates: the corals closer to Florida Bay grew only half as much as offshore corals. The location of the Florida Keys makes them particularly vulnerable. They are close to the heavily populated North American coast, and ...
- 3145: Cold Fusion
- ... 1989, a discovery was made that rocked the scientific world. Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischman had announced that they were able to create and sustain a cold fusion process. After intense media attention, and corresponding interest in future test, the subject seemed to have faded away. Future tests proved inconclusive, and when the quick promise of easy energy didnt materialize, most quickly forgot the subject. Little is said about the ...
- 3146: Chromatography
- ... porous inert particles (size exclusion). The mixture to be separated is loaded onto the top of the column followed by more solvent. The different components in the sample mixture pass through the column at different rates due to differences in their partition behavior between the mobile phase and the stationary phase. The compounds are separated by collecting aliquots of the column effluent as a function of time. Conventional Liquid Chromatography is ...
- 3147: Cancer Treatments And Breakthroughs
- ... cells may break away from the tumor and spread the cancer throughout your body. Although many people believe that your survival rate is low if you're diagnosed with cancer, patients usually have high recovery rates. There are many different types of treatment that doctors can give to their patients. The three main types are surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Surgery is quick, usually effective, and it accounts for the most cures ...
- 3148: Coyote
- ... researcher, Bil Gilbert, calls the coyote the great-granddaddy of what he calls, invigorated species (Gilbert, 1991, p. 69). These are animal types that are doing better than ever before in categories such as reproductive rates and widespread distribution. Gilbert offers a similar explanation as to why the coyote is the most prolific of the invigorated species. Often coyotes and many other invigorated species are referred to as "generalists." This has ...
- 3149: Cryogenic
- ... science. It is the study of matter at temperatures much colder than those that occur naturally on Earth. Cryogenic temperatures are considerably lower than those encountered in ordinary physical processes. There is another field of interest associated with very cold temperature-cryonics. Cryonics is the practice of freezing of people, or just their heads, in liquid nitrogen after death in hopes that one day they can be thawed to the out ...
- 3150: Cisc And Risc Processor Technologies
- ... 1. Speed Since a simplified instruction set allows for a pipelined, super scalar design RISC processors often achieve 2 to 4 times the performance of CISC processors using comparable semiconductor technology and the same clock rates. 1. Simpler hardware Because the instruction set of a RISC processor is so simple, it uses up much less chip space; extra functions, such as memory management units or floating point arithmetic units, can also ...
