History Of The Prostate Gland
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 517.... occurs very slowly and is usually limited within the
prostate gland. Later on in the course of the illness, the
prostate gland cells can spread around the body,
particulary to the bones where they can paues pain and
disability. Estimates show that the cancer may have been
growing in some men for up to 10 yearsbefore it causes
symptoms and is diagnosed. Some men develop symptoms
whereas others do not. In those who that do, the following
symptoms are commonly found:
BATHROOM TROUBLES:
-Need to urinate frequently, especially at night
-Sudden, incontrolab .....

Cryogenics: Is It Worth Waiting For
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 848.... negative two hundred and
seventy three point sixteen degrees Celsius--absolute zero. The word
"Cryogenics" comes from the Greek word “kryos” meaning cold (“Cryogenics”
Raintree 127, Kavaler 16). The science of cryobiology was first recognized in
the early nineteen sixties. Cryobiology is the study of the effects of
extremely low temperatures on living animals and plants. The chief concern in
cryobiology is to preserve living matter for future use. This method can also
be called cryopreservation. Cryotherapy is the use of extreme cold in treatment.
The first trials of cry .....

DNA
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 849.... specific functions: to provide foe
protein synthesis, and hence the growth and development of the organism and to
furnish all descendants with protein-synthesis and hence the growth and
development of the organism. So all living things on plant Earth contains the
genetic material DNA and the structure of a DNA molecule or combination of DNA
molecules determines the shape, form, and function of the offspring.
2)The term "genetic technology"(or genetic engineering) is the modification of
the genetic properties of an organism by the use of recombinant DNA technology.
By using .....

ALCHEMY
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1357.... gold and silver from the native matrix. The resulting oxide was supposed to possess
marvelous powers, and it was thought that there resided within in the individualities of the various metals, that in
it their various substances were incorporated. This black powder was mystically identified with the underworld form
of the god Osiris, and consequently was credited with magical properties. Thus there grew up in Egypt the belief
that magical powers existed in fluxes and alloys. Probably such a belief existed throughout Europe in connection
with the bronze-working ca .....

Lenz's Law And Faraday's Law Of Induction
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 667.... oppose this upward increase, the field produced by the induced
current must point downward. Thus Lenz's law tells us that the current must move
by the use of the use of the right hand rule. If the flux decreases, so the
induced current produces an upward magnetic field that is "trying" to maintain
the status quo.
Let us consider what would happen if Lenz's law were just the reverse.
The induced current would produce a flux in the same direction as the original
change; this greater change in flux would produce an even larger current,
followed by a still larger change in .....

Depression 4
Number of pages: 10 | Number of words: 2636.... their symptoms are milder than in major depression. Some people with dysthymia experience occasional episodes of major depression. Mental health professionals use the term clinical depression to refer to any of the above forms of depression.
Surveys indicate that people commonly view depression as a sign of personal weakness, but psychiatrists and psychologists view it as a real illness. In the United States, the National Institute of Mental Health has estimated that depression costs society many billions of dollars each year, mostly in lost work time.

Life Sciences SIG: Gut Issues - Essay About Dietary Fibers
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 534.... cell walls. But unlike the other carbohydrates,
fibres do not break down into sugars in the human digestive system and then
course through the blood stream fueling muscles and nerves. Rather, when
eaten they tumble intact through the stomach and small intestine and end up
in the colon where billions of bacterial feed on them - in turn producing
intestinal gas. No wonder, then, that dietary fibre has been unwelcome in
many of history's nicer neighborhoods.
Even 20th century doctors reasoned that since the bulky material
provided not a single nutrient, it would only strai .....

Insulation
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 966.... colder. Each morning
many people wonder what to wear to stay as warm as possible, but they aren't
sure which material will keep them warmest. The experiment was chosen to see
which clothing insulator retains the most heat. "Insulation is material that
protects against heat, cold, electricity, or sound." (Science Encyclopedia,
1984). In this case the insulation will be protecting against a cold temperature.
The hypothesis is if denim, cotton T-shirt material, wool fabric,
polyester fabric, thermal underwear, and a Ziplock bag with out insulating
material are tested to see .....
