Number of words: 636 - Number of pages: 3.... and are screened for conditions such as AIDS, gonorrhea and other STDS. Even though freezing sperm doesn't seem to affect a pregnancy, it reduces the sperm's movement and influences the success rate of . About 75 to 85 percent of women inseminated with fresh donor semen will get pregnant--especially if the procedure is repeated over several months. Unfortunately, freezing the sperm decreases the chances of success by 10 to 15 percent.
Today's reproductive technology is not limited to helping create human families. Reproductive specialists at the nation's zoos and research cente .....

Aluminium
Number of words: 493 - Number of pages: 2.... of many rocks such as granite, which
is quartz and mica cemented together with felspar. These rocks are gradually
weathered and broken down by the action of carbon-dioxide from the air dissolved
in rainwater forming ‘kaolin'. This is further broken down to form other
substances, ultimately resulting in the formation of Aluminium deposits.
Where and how Aluminium is mined?
Aluminium is never found in it's pure state until it has been refined. Aluminium
is made when refining alumina, which is in turn found from the ore ‘bauxite'.
Bauxite is often mined in the opencast method.
Aluminium .....

Acetaminophen

The dosage of the drug should be used according to the carton instructions. A 10 gram over dose in adults, 140 mg for kids, can cause permanent liver damage. Also if you had just taken some other drugs , The may become more toxic since the drugs are catabolized in the liver. To protect yourself from injury, you should take 1 gram of vitamin C and Cysteine -a bodily antioxidant.
The kidneys can be permanently damaged if you continuo .....

What Is Electricity
Number of words: 726 - Number of pages: 3.... up so many electrons that your finger would explode! But this is
nothing to worry about... unless you have carpeting. Although we modern
persons tend to take our electric lights, radios, mixers, etc. for
granted. Hundreds of years ago people did not have any of these things,
which is just as well because there was no place to plug them in. Then
along came the first Electrical Pioneer, Benjamin Franklin, who flew a kite
in a lightning storm and received a serious electrical shock. This proved
that lightning was powered by the same force as carpets, but it also
damaged Franklin's brai .....

Design Of A Psychological Experiment
Number of words: 470 - Number of pages: 2.... follow the instructions of
the experimenter, that is to hit the baseball.
3) Will you treat all the participants in the same way? No, I would not treat
all the participants in the same way. The control group would not be given
caffeine. However, I would treat all experimental groups the same because that
will give more accurate results. If the participants were not treated the same
I would not be able to accurately measure how much or how little the caffeine
affected the students.
4) How will you select the participants of your study so that they are
representative of the student .....

Army Ants

three parties going out simultaneously in different directions for 100 yards or
more. In the U.S. army we attack countries in different areas to weaken the
force we are attacking. We send out thousands of troops in various directions
and try to surround the source of the location being attacked. For instance, if
there are several locations that needed to be attacked to weaken the enemy, like
their weapon storage or air force base, we send several sets of troops to attack
each individual location. This is very similar to the way army ants set out .....

Fluorescence Study Of Dyes

2.1. Electronic Absorption Spectra
We made up stock solutions for both salts and diluted them down to use in the UV/vis spectrometer.
Coumarin 1
C = 8 x10-5 mol dm -3
We obtained a spectrum with a maximum at 376.5nm at an absorbance of 1.4573, using Beer-Lambert's law, we deduced the molar decadic absorption coefficients. .....

Fusion Energy
Number of words: 865 - Number of pages: 4.... method is called thermonuclear.
Even though fusion reasearch still needs a lot of time, there has been
some progress in discovering how we can use this. The two fusion reactions
that are the most promising both involve the heavier isotopes of hydrogen:
1) deuterium (composed of one proton and one neutron) Deuterium occurs
naturally as a minor constituent in all hydrogen-containing materials--such
as water--in quantities sufficient to meet all the energy needs of
societies for many billions of years.
2) tritium (composed of one proton and two neutrons). Tritium can be
bred from li .....

Aurora Borealis
Number of words: 304 - Number of pages: 2.... causing it to glow. The flow of plasma from the sun is generally continuos, although it occasionally bursts out of holes in the sun's outermost atmosphere. Massive ejections of plasma have also been shown to accompany solar flares, prominences, and sunspots. It is during these periods of highest solar activity that one is most likely to witness aurorae.
The aurora is an ideal subject for the amateur astronomer because no telescope or any other optical apparatus is needed for observing it. It also makes a good subject for anyone who can draw or paint. This beautiful display of light .....
