The Inuit People Of Arctic
1,456 words
The Inuit are one of the many self-designations of
the Eskimo people. They are considered to be of
Asian decent, which is noticeable from their small
hands and feet. Another distinguishing feature is
the appreciable percentage of the B blood type,
which seems to be totally absent from the American
Indian, whom they are usually mistaken to be
descendants of (Mastny 25). These Inuit are
scattered in small communities across Northern
Alaska, northern Canada, Greenland, and the
Chukotka region of Ea...

H R Diagram Main Sequence Stars Absolute
527 words
The Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram or, the H-R
Diagram for short, is a graph which plots stars
according to their temperature and absolute
magnitude. This graph reveals a pattern, which in
fact is quite interesting. The H-R Diagram is
named for the two astronomers, Ear Hertzsprung and
Henry Russell, who discovered this pattern of
stars. These two astronomers independently
discovered that comparing magnitudes and spectral
class (color) of stars yielded a lot of
information about them. One key purpos...

Female Gender Bias In Schools

Sadker and Sadker (1994) reported a startling fact
that few people realize. Today's girls continue a
three-hundred year-old struggle for full
participation in America's educational system.
During colonial times school doors were closed for
young women seeking knowledge, and the home was
considered the learning place for young women. The
home, serving as the girls' classroom, was where
young girls learned the practical domestic skills
for their inevitable role as wife and mother.
However, in 1767...

Catalase Which Is Found In The Liver'
Introduction: Enzymes are biological catalysts.
They speed up the chemical reactions which go on
inside living things. Without them the reactions
would be so slow that life would grind to a halt.
Enzymes work by when a substrate molecule bumps
into a molecule of the right enzyme, it fits into
a depression on the surface of the enzyme
molecule. This depression is called the active
site. The reaction then takes place and the
molecules of product leave the acti...

Global Warming (1) The problem of Global warming
is considered one of the most troubling issues of
contemporary era. It has been noticed that the
average air temperature in different parts of the
world is being on constant rise, ever since
humanity's existence began to depend more and more
on exploitation of fossil fuels. Whereas in 1870,
the carbon fuel emissions in the air were almost
non-existent, in 2000, the amount of such
emissions has reached 6 billion tons. Many
scientists agree that it ...

science that applies the molecular approaches of
chemistry to the vast variety of biological
systems. Biochemists work at all levels and with
all types of biological organisms, ranging from
biomolecules to man. There are...

Green House Effect Carbon Dioxide

GLOBAL WARMING Dear grandpa, Do you aware that our
grand children and great children may be the
victim of global warming during the next century?
In 1986, the Swedish chemist state Arrhenius first
revealed the theory that carbon emissions from the
burning of coal and other fossil fuels could
generate a green house effect by trapping solar
heat in the atmosphere leading to global warming.
Electro magnetic energy emanating from the Sun is
absorbed by the Earth, which radiates some of this
energy o...

Carbon dioxide is a colorless, odorless,
non-toxic, and slightly acid-tasting gas.
Sometimes referred to as a carbonic acid gas, the
molecule consists of one atom of carbon joined to
two atoms of oxygen. It occurs naturally in the
atmospheres of many planets, including that of
earth. Carbon dioxide is uniformly distributed
over the earths surface at a concentration of
about 0. 033 %, or 330 parts per million. It was
called fixed air by the Scottish chemist and
physician Joseph Black in the 1750 ...
