Effects Of Acid Rain Sulfur Dioxide And Nitrogen
3,730 words
What is acid rain? Acid rain is the term for
pollution caused when sulfur and nitrogen dioxides
combine with atmospheric moisture. The term 'acid
rain' is slightly misleading, and would be more
accurate if deemed 'enhanced acid rain', as rain
occurs acidic naturally. Acidity is measured on
what is know as the pH scale. Fourteen is the most
basic, seven is the most neutral, and zero is the
most acidic. Pure rain has a pH level of 7, which
is exactly neutral. The acidity of rain is
determined by t...

Source Of Energy Due To The Fact

Over the past four or five decades, and especially
in recent years, there has been a lot of talk
among the scientific community and in everyday
life about the development of nuclear fusion as an
energy source. It seems that the everyday person
has some sort of fairy tale image of fusion power
in the back of their head. When they hear about
dwindling un renewable resources such as coal,
oil, and natural gas, they just sort of file it
away with the hope that fusion power will come

osmosis, and enzyme activity. What do these six
processes have in common? Fermentation is a
chemical process that breaks down organic
materials. This process is carried out by such
microbes as bacteria, molds, and yeasts. For
example, molds or fungi act upon mixtures of
molasses and mineral salts to produce penicillin.
Yeast breaks down sugar gotten from malted grain

Stratospheric Ozone Ozone Layer
2,496 words
The Atmospheric Ozone Layer The stratospheric
ozone layer exists at altitudes between about 10
and 40 km depending on latitude, just above the
tropopause. Its existence is crucial for life on
earth as we know it, because the ozone layer
controls the absorption of a portion of the deadly
ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. UV-A rays,
including wavelengths between 320 and 400 nm, are
not affected by ozone. UV-C rays between 200 and
280 nm, are absorbed by the other atmospheric
constituents besides...

analysis is used in the determination of the

quantitative analysis, which deals with the

this experiment, qualitative analysis techniques
are used to determine whether or not a sample
contains a certain ion. When using this method, an
unknown and a reactant are mixed. The result of

Lymph Nodes Nervous System
1,517 words
Stress is the nonspecific response of the body to
any demand made on it. Each demand made on the
body is specific. Each drug or hormone has
specific actions, yet they all have one thing in
common; they increase the demand for readjustment.
This demand is nonspecific; it requires adaptation
to a problem. In other words, in addition to their
specific actions, all agents to which we are
exposed also produce a nonspecific increase in the
need to perform adaptive functions to re-establish
normality. ...
