... ife (6). The two most common complications of
the procedure are sepsis and loss of the integrity
of the anastomoses created. The control of the
sepsis is managed with antibiotics specific to the
infecting agent (4). The healing of the
anastomoses can be aided through the use of agents
that block pancreatic secretions especially the
proteases. The use of the hormone somatostatin to
block exocrine excretion following a Whipples
procedure was first done in 1979 and resulted in a
decrease in com...

Specific Heat Boiling Point
1,047 words
The purpose of this lab was to determine the
specific heat of two different metals. In order to
do this, specific directions were executed in
order to discover the specific heat. First, we
needed to obtain and record the weight of the
Styrofoam calorimeter cup. Next, we filled the cup
2 / 3 full with cool tap water and recorded the
temperature of the water. After this was done, we
filled a glass beaker half full with water and
placed it on a hot plate in order to have the
water reach boiling poi...

Gram Negative Petri Dishes

Abstract/Summary: Changing our focus from the
properties and functions that take place within
the cell to the actual cell itself, we observed
three specific bacterial types within this lab:
Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria,
and cyanobacteria. We closely observed the
features of cyanobacteria and were able to
differentiate them from other bacteria. We
specifically observed gloeocapsa, merismopedia,
anabaena, and oscillator. In addition to this we
observed the different characteristi...

Since the dawning of civilization, when the first
humans walked the earth, games have played an
integral part in human society. Humanity has
always had a passion for pastimes and has
accordingly created an immense number of methods
for achieving diversion. From the game of See, an
ancient Egyptian game of royal appeal (and perhaps
even the primogenitor of modern backgammon) that
was discovered in the tombs of pharaohs;
Hnefatafl, a Norse precursor to chess; and

Biology Lab Report Genetic Exchange In Prokaryotes
679 words
This lab deals with the process of genetic
exchange in prokaryotes. There are three main
mechanisms of genetic exchange which include
transformation, transduction, and conjugation. In
transformation, DNA is released from cells in the
surrounding environment which is then incorporated
into the recipient cells DNA. In transduction, DNA
is transferred through a virus to the recipient.
In conjugation, genetic exchange occurs through
direct contact with another cell and the plasmid
is transferred fro...

Aerospace engineers examine, analyze, design,

make up aircraft, spacecraft, high-altitude
vehicles, and high-altitude delivery systems
(missiles). Satisfaction with the romantic image
of rocket building can buoy many engineers through
the highly anonymous work environments that many
of them face. Individuals don't assemble rockets;
teams do, dozens of teams working in highly
supervised coordination. An aerospace engineer

In the European Economic Area, the basic principle
is that the parties can choose the governing law
and the forum for dispute resolution (i. e. courts
of a particular country, arbitration etc. ). The
Rome Convention rules decide which law applies
although certain mandatory rules in a purchaser's
country will always apply, for example for
financial services or consumer protection.
Similarly, in the EU jurisdiction of disputes is
determined by reference to the Brussels Regulation

to artificially designed social myths, upon which
the concept of political Liberalism is based. The

have seen and studied in this class is that a
particular form or structure of a molecule plays a
significant role in the function of that molecule.
Since we are interested in the function of
molecules. it helps to study their structure. One
of the major classes of organic compounds found in
cells are carbohydrates. These carbohydrate are

Graphical User Interface Computer Industry

If you ask people to name one of the most
important technologies of the twentieth century,
one of the answers would most certainly be the
computer. A computer, however, is not a technology
all to itself. Many other technologies went into
the modern home computers of today, including the
mouse. Douglas C. Engelbart, a worker at the SRI
(Stanford Research Institute), invented the mouse
in 1964. However, the process of the invention of
the mouse was not instantaneous and without effect

DNA and Forensics In my essay I will discuss the
topic DNA and Forensics. This is an interesting
topic because there have been great advances in
the field of forensic science that have affected
its credibility and usage in solving crimes that
would otherwise go unsolved. DNA can be found in
almost any bodily fluid (semen, saliva, blood,
etc. ) and in less obvious places such as a strand
of hair. It has become a crucial part of
investigating crimes, and will continue to develop
this way. DNA firs...

The scientific Biotechnology Jones 1 The
scientific rules of genetics were not known until
the nineteenth century, when Gregor Mendel
determined from his study of plants that particles
that can not be seen carry traits that are passed
on from generation to generation. In 1953, James
Watson and Francis Crick made the makeup of the
genetic code called deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA,
the genetic material that is in all living cells.
