Phosphorus: Chemical Reactions Of Phosphorus And Its Importance
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 719

.... application of this reaction to the industrial world consists of a set of processes to filter out the phosphate. The setup is the following: Purpose: Restrict phosphates to aluminum phosphates for easier disposal of phosphorus. The first step in phosphorus removal is the Rapid Mix. In this stage, alum and waste or water runoff(known as effluent) is blended together as rapidly as possible with the use of a high-speed mixer called a "flash mixer." After this instant mixing, a slower moving process called coagulation and flocculation follows to allow the formation of .....


Multi-regional Continuity: The Fossil Evidence
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1080

.... low prognathism in the area of the lower face, and a high, vaulted shape in the area of the cranium. “Archaic” features in skull morphology include thick cranial walls, heavy supraorbital ridges, large teeth, large eye sockets, sloping foreheads, low cranial volume (below 1200 cc.), high prognathism in the area of the lower face, and a small, football-shaped cranium. The presence of various mixtures of these modern and archaic traits forms the basis for identifying a fossil as transitional modern/archaic in accordance with the multi-regional continuity model o .....


Coelacanths
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 373

.... the Comero Islands, north of Madagascar, they met with success. Since then, more than 200 specimens have been found, all in the same region. Apart from the novelty of being such rare fish, have very great zoological importance. First, they are "living fossils"-a life form that has been preserved almost unchanged for many millions of years. As such, they offer the scientist a view of the biology of an earlier stage in the history of life. Second, the group of fishes to which the coelacanth belongs occupies an extremely important place in the vertebrate life. They includ .....


Gas Laws (cemistry)
Number of pages: 9 | Number of words: 2458

.... When the liquid level in both arms is the same, the pressure of the sample of gas inside the closed end must equal the pressure of the external atmosphere since the downward force on the two columns of liquid is then equal. When the liquid levels are unequal, the pressures must differ. The difference in pressure can be measured in units of length of the vertical column of liquid. The mm Hg, or its modern version the torr, originated in this use of the manometer. Mercury is particularly convenient for use in manometers (and barometers) because at room temperature it has low .....


Recommendation For Recycling Water In Florida
Number of pages: 10 | Number of words: 2564

.... occurrence of sinkholes, the evidence of a water shortage is everywhere. Since we need water to survive, and there are no alternatives to support life on this planet, we must find a way to keep up with our ever increasing water demand. This report presents the water shortage problem that is occurring in Florida. This report will familiarize you with the problem and explain the other uses currently being employed in Florida. This report also explains the procedure, as well as a recommendation including the site and costs involved, along with a short background on th .....


Carbohydrates
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 383

.... vertebrates, sugars are often transported in other organisms as disaccharides. Sucrose, commonly called cane sugar, is the form in which sugar is transported in plants from the photosynthetic cells to other parts of the plant body. Sucrose is composed of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose. In the synthesis of a disaccharide molecule from two monosaccharides, a molecule of water is removed in the process of forming the new bond between the two monosaccharides. This type of chemical reaction, which occurs in the synthesis of most organic polymers from their subunits, is kn .....


Earthquakes
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1303

.... waves—that is, they travel through the earth's interior—and the other four are surface waves. The waves are further differentiated by the kinds of motions they impart to rock particles. Primary or compressional waves (P waves) send particles oscillating back and forth in the same direction as the waves are traveling, whereas secondary or transverse shear waves (S waves) impart vibrations perpendicular to their direction of travel. P waves always travel at higher velocities than S waves, so whenever an earthquake occurs, P waves are the first to arrive and to be recorded at .....


Coral Reefs 2
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1446

.... formed far offshore and they make a ring-shaped reef that close a circular lagoon. Coral reefs are the largest biological structures on the planet, with the largest being the Great Barrier Reef covering over 2000 kilometers along the East Coast of Australia. The reef is said to be 500,000 to 2,500,000 years old and is said to be visible from the moon. There is only one problem with this beautiful structure and that is the carelessness of man. Silt from deforested lands and pollution from crowded coastlines choke them, and overuse by coal miners, fisheries, and even tourists d .....
