.... loosely packed and has a six-sided, layered configuration, which makes it soft (Pough, 1991). The differences between graphite and are accounted for by the conditions in which they are created. form over long periods of time, between 100 km and 200 km below the surface. At this great depth, carbon gets a chance to cool very gradually, forming diamond crystals. When volcanic eruptions occur, magma carries the up to the surface of the earth. Kimberlite lavas carrying erupt at anywhere between 10 and 30 km/hour and increase their velocity to several hundred km/hour within the last few ki .....

Galileo And Newton
Number of words: 1182 - Number of pages: 5

.... is so well known. His conclusions put emphasis on shapes, numbers, and motion which are all properties that lend themselves to support through "reasoning back and forth between theory and experiment." I feel that Galileo's argument is a valid one because it explains relations in nature and the physical world through mathematical analysis. This allows him to define a world outside of human existence that can be logically calculated and explained. His view describes the world in which living creatures live and not contrasts it to the world within living creatures. The problem with Galileo' .....

On the other hand, the discovery in the 1980s that air pollutants such as fluorocarbons are causing a loss of ozone from the earth's protective ozone layer has caused the phasing out of these materials.

Green Fluorescent Protein Purification
Number of words: 1280 - Number of pages: 5

.... bulb that can be tacked on to other proteins at either the N- or C-terminus without a distortion of its compact beta-can structure. Biochemists now frequently exploit GFP’s unique structural and physical characteristics to visualize various cellular activities. One such application of GFP is to understand the role of a hormone, T3, in the translocation of thyroid hormone nuclear receptors (TRs).* In this project, GFP was fused to the human TR subtype b1 protein and the protein’s intracellular movement was visually tracked in live cells in the presence or absence of the T3 hormone. The .....
