    the molarity of the sucrose solution out the cells of potato. I predict that if the molarity of sucrose solution outside the cells is isotonic to the molarity of the sucrose inside the cells then there will be no change in weight of the potato disks. I predict this because if the molarities are isotonic inside and outside the cells then there will be a balanced osmotic movement of the water molecules from inside and outside hence there will be no change in weight. I also predict that if the

So if a corrupt disk is discarded, the data can be recovered with the right tools. The same is true with computer hard drives, flash memory, compact Disks etc... There are actually people who recover data for their income. These people usually don't discriminate against one customer or another they just extract the

  • History of Television

    television devices were based on an 1884 invention called the scanning disk, patented by Paul Nipkow. This device was a large disk with holes on it, which spun in front of an object while a photoelectric cell recorded changes in light. Depending on the electricity transmitted by the photoelectric cell, an array of light bulbs would glow or remain dark. But Nipkow’s mechanical system could not scan and deliver a clear, live-action image. Many inventors hoped to perfect this. In 1921, a 14-year-old Mormon

The only disadvantage is that the PC chosen to be the Ghost Server has to have enough free hard drive space to store the image which will

A virus can be classified as a boot sector virus, a program virus, a trojan horse virus, a macro virus, a memory resident virus, a stealth virus, or a polymorphic virus. A boot sector virus replaces the startup code on a disk with a modified version, which is loaded into the memory when the computer
