Influential Tube Time has brought about a new past time for this generation of children. Within the grab bag of talk shows, one has surfaced to be the most talked about and harshly recognized. The infamous Jerry Springer Show. The Jerry Springer Show has perfected the ability to taint our airways with unfavorable materials. The show could have a damaging effect on children because it contains the ingredients that can influence them to adopt the unacceptable behaviors of its guests. Many mature
Osmosis in Potato Tubes Osmosis: Osmosis is the movement of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from a high concentration to a low concentration. Diagram: [IMAGE] [IMAGE] Aim: To see the effects of different concentration of sugar solution on Osmosis in potato tubes. Key factor: In the investigation we change the sugar solution from: 0%-10%-20%-30%-40%-50% this is the independent variable; the dependant variable is the change in mass. Prediction:
The Focal Length of The Lens in the Tube Plan I plan to set up the apparatus as shown below and change 'b'. To then make the image focus, I will have to change 'c'. When the image is focused, I will measure 'c' and also the magnification of the image. Using this information I will then be able to calculate 'a'. [IMAGE] Hypothesis ========== I predict that using the equations stated in the justification, after measuring values for 'c' and 'm'. I will be able to plot them on
According to the Encyclopædia Britannica (2014), a neural tube defect is “any congenital defect of the brain and spinal cord as a result of abnormal development of the neural tube.” This birth defect is “the most common congenital defect of the central nervous system, affecting the brain and/or spinal cord of 300,000 newborns worldwide each year” (Ricks et al., 2012, p. 391). The exact cause of these central nervous system defects is unknown, but there are many contributing factors that are evidenced
an emergency and hospital setting, two tools stand above the available options in maintaining a patient’s airway in an respiratory emergency; the endotracheal tube and the dual lumen combitube. The Endotracheal tube is an airway management device used in both emergency and surgical medicine settings. Depending on manufacturer, an ET tube ranges from twenty four to twenty seven centimeters in length and varies in width per patient age, size, and gender. The distal end is fitted with a universal adapter
An Investigation to Observe the Effect of Different Sugared Solutions on the Mass of Potato Tubes Introduction: Diffusion is the natural random movement of gas and liquid particles, from a high concentration of that substance to a low concentration. An example of diffusion in body is in the lungs. Oxygen in the alveolar air spaces diffuses in to the blood capillaries. Osmosis it the diffusion of water particles through a partially permeable membrane, from an area of high concentration to
The Use of Technology at the Bedside to Place Feeding Tubes Amy D. Kramer Point Loma Nazarene University Introduction Artificial nutritional support is often necessary to enhance the nutritional status of acutely or critically ill patients. Nasogastric and post-pyloric feeding tubes are relied upon to provide the caloric and nutritional support required. There are approximately 1.2 million feeding tubes placed annually in the United States (Koopmann, Kudsk, & Szotkowski, 2011; Krenitsky,
Between day twenty-five and twenty-seven of pregnancy, normally before a woman even knows she is pregnant, the neural tube that ultimately becomes the brain and spinal cord begins to develop and eventually close. When the neural tube fails to close, the outcome is a neural tube defect called anencephaly. Anencephaly is a congenital birth defect and is characterized by the absence of the prosencephalon (fore-brain), cerebrum, cerebellum, and cranium. Part of the brain-stem is usually present. The
When I was growing up, our parents allowed us only a small amount of virtual entertainment including television. Even before we could be in the same room as the television, we had to meet a few requirements; our homework had to be completed, our rooms had to look decent, and we had to have our chores thoroughly completed. Even after all these things were completed, we found little interest in actually watching television, instead, we would usually end up in our backyard playing soccer, drawing on
Violence on the Tube One Saturday morning many years ago, I was watching an episode of the ‘ Roadrunner' on television. As Wile E. Coyote was pushed off of a cliff by the Roadrunner for the fourth or fifth time, I started laughing uncontrollably. I then watched a ‘Bugs Bunny' show and started laughing whenever I saw Elmer Fudd shoot Daffy Duck and his bill went twirling around his head. The next day, I pushed my brother off of a cliff and shot my dog to see if its head would twirl
paper, with a long grass green fuse poking out the side. The fuse is approximately sixteen inches long, which gives it four inches out of the launch tube, making it easier to light. The launch tube is twelve inches long, and black with a red and white warning label. The warning label is very attention grabbing, with the bright colors on top of the black tube. I
Over 1 Billion individuals visit the most popular video viewing website, YouTube, every year. YouTube is a website where anyone can upload videos and share them with the world! In fact, over 100 Hours of video are being uploaded every Minute! By the time you're done reading this paper, hundreds and hundreds of hours of video will have been uploaded! But, how did YouTube start? Where did the idea come from and how did it become the most popular video viewing website? The idea of YouTube was created
1985, a German physicist named Wilhelm Roentgen was experimenting in his laboratory with a Crookes tube. The Crookes tube was developed by English physicist William Crookes. A Crookes tube is a gasless, glass container that contains a negatively charged cathode and a positive charged anode with an induction coil to carry a current. Roentgen discovered that when a high voltage was applied to the tube, it emitted an invisible source of beams that led a fluorescent screen to glow. This fluorescent screen
Ideally the purified cellulase that was in test tube 4, which was 50 mg/ml, should have had a higher absorbance, but for unknown reasons, the cellulase has not been working all semester long. Test tube 2 had cellulase at a 1 mg/ml concentration. Next time, instead of a 1-hour incubation period at 50°C, there should be a 3-hour incubation period at 55°C. This would give the
of lower water concentration. I am going to find this out by placing pieces of potato, each the same length and weight in 5 different test tubes with different concentrations of sugar solution and distilled water. I will be weighing and measuring the size of the potato pieces after being in these solutions for 24 hours. Apparatus ◠5 test tubes ◠5 potato slices (each with the length of 7.5cm and weighing roughly 1.53g) ◠Scales ◠Ruler ◠Scalpel ◠50cm³ distilled
First of all, you need a sturdy, good tube. The tube should be cylindrical and should be at least 3/32 of an inch thick. The opening at the top of your tube should have a 5/8 inch opening. Then take a 1/16 inch fuse, make sure it covers the whole tube and sticks out a little bit, just like any other firework and keep the tube in place by using tape. Next, 1.25 grams of 3F BP should be poured into the tube. Then, gently put a one-half inch star down the tube. This is what will go up into the air and
you’re already nervous because you do not like needles. You hear a knock on the door with an announcement that “A” the phlebotomist is here to draw your blood. You kindly tell her to enter. As she walks through the door you notice an array of colorful tubes with labels on them with your name. Don’t you wonder why all those are for you, and only you? The emergency room in any hospital is usually the busiest department; many people are entering for treatment while many are being discharged. Hospitals are
solution into a stronger solution through a partially permeable membrane. We hope to achieve this by doing four experiments using distilled water in one test tube and different concentrations of salt water in the other test tubes. Once done, we will measure the change in mass. Prediction I think that the potato that is put in the test tube with water in will gain in mass. I think that the potato put into the salt solution will loose in mass. The higher the concentration of salt the, the more
what effect the concentration of sucrose solution has on the chips. Prediction * I think that the chips in the test tubes containing more sucrose solution than distilled water will increase in temperature. * I think that the chips in the test tubes containing less sucrose solution than distilled water will decrease in mass. * I think that the chips in the test tubes containing equal amount of sucrose solution and distilled water will stay roughly the same mass. I think the graph
1cm x 2cm. Test tube A will have a piece of potato which is this size. Test tube B will have this size potato in but cut in half and Test tube C will have this size potato in it but cut into thirds, this means the surface area is gradually increased. The surface area for the potato in Test Tube A = 10cm B = 12cm C = 14cm This shows that there is a difference of 2cm between A and B, and B and C, also that there is a 4cm difference between A and C. Test tube B has increased by
