Introduction To Japanese Grammar And Learning New Vocabulary
1,023 wordsIntroduction to Japanese Grammar Japanese sentences are very different from familiar languages like English and Spanish. Incidentally, Spanish is very similar to English grammar-wise. Japanese, on the other hand, uses small words called "particles" that mark what a word is supposed to "be" to the sentence. More on particles later. On the upside though, once you learn Japanese grammar (it doesn't take as long as you might think) you can sit back and relax, because Japanese grammar is very logical...

Plant Cells Genetic Material
329 wordsMethods for Genetically Engineering a Plant Two very different techniques exist for giving a plant new genetic characteristics. But both share several steps. Step 1: The DNA that encodes the genetic information for the desirable trait must be isolated. At step 2, the different techniques diverge into an a path and a b path: In Step 2 a, the new DNA is linked to a circular ring of genetic material called a transfer plasmid. Plasmids act like molecular taxicabs that carry genes from one place to a...

Gold Foil Experiment Model Of An Atom Thomson's
268 wordsThe evolution of the modern atom model took several years to evolved with contribution from different scientists. One of these scientists, the first to come up with a modern model of the atom is JJ Thomson. Thomson proposes that the structure of an atom is mainly a sphere. A sphere that is filled with positive electronic field and contains tiny particles that has a negative charge. He called the tiny particles corpuscles. Thomson's model of the atom is often refer as the plum pudding model becau...
