He did not even have any special learning powers either. This was proved when Hoffman was writing equations on a blackboard when he was asked to slow down by Einstein, he said, "Please go slowly, I do not understand things quickly." Proving that he is not that much more intelligent than anyone else. Einstein was a normal guy with maybe just a little more on the brains side, but original as an ordinary person.
Einstein was also a very ingenious person at t .....

Fungi: The Great Decomposers
Number of pages: 1 | Number of words: 180.... of plants
and animals.
History
the history of fungi is not very clear because scientists have never
realy wnt in great deepth , because fungi are not needed commericaly. the
ancestors of fungi lived in shallow bodies of water about 600-800 million years
ago. Some of the things the fungi had to encounter from living out of water was,
there was more sunlight that was normally blocked be the water, and the had to
do something about the rapid shifts in tempature and seasonal shifts.
Fungi are different from other plants in many ways. The general
characteristics of fu .....

members through anger and frustration because of the condition.
One important reminder to parents with children who suffer from this condition is
that bed-wetting should not be thought of as a behavioral problem. There is no medical
proof to show that children wet the bed to spite their parents. Also, most children will
outgrow bed-wetting eventually. As parents, the best way to help your child is to be
understanding and remember that punishing or making fun of a child who wets the bed
can only make the situation worse. .....

Chemistry-soaps And Detergents
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 655.... soda) ---- salt of fatty acid(soap) + alcohol(glycerol).
Caustic potash (potassium hydroxide) can be used instead of caustic soda (sodium hydroxide)but is more expensive. The base used to come from wood ash containing potassium carbonate which formed potash as this was not plentiful it made soap a luxury. The cheapest source of the ester is animal and vegetable fats and oils.

The Big Bang
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1283.... The Steady State model says that the universe does not evolve or change in
time. There was no beginning in the past, nor will there be change in the
future. This model assumes the perfect cosmological principle. This principle
says that the universe is the same everywhere on the large scale, at all times.2
It maintains the same average density of matter forever.
There are observational evidences found that can prove the Big Bang model
is more reasonable than the Steady State model. First, the redshifts of distant
galaxies. Redshift is a Doppler effect which states t .....

Bioluminescence In Fungi
Number of pages: 8 | Number of words: 2045.... called "Luciferin" and the reaction was catalyzed by an enzyme called
"Luciferase". The light generated by this biochemical reaction has been
utilized by scientists as a bioindicator for Tuberculosis as well as heavy
metals. On going research involving bioluminescence is currently underway in
the areas of evolution, ecology, histology, physiology, biochemistry, and
biomedical applications.
History of Bioluminescent Fungi
The light of luminous wood was first noted in the early writings of
Aristotle which occurred in 382 B.C.(Johnson and Yata 1966 and Newton 1952) The

Bio-report
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 541.... cell wants potassium and wants to get rid of a sodium, the cell releases ATP to the pump proteins which results in the cell ejecting the sodium ion and at the same time another receptor cell accepts a potassium which is then released into the cell and the process is repeated until the cell is finished.
c.Facilitated Transport
In facilitated transport a molecule that cannot normally pass through into a cell use a carrier protein to gain access and exit. Basically this allows a cell to acquire molecules that cannot get through itıs selectively permeable membrane. For exa .....
