of corn must be grown in the same soil and nutrient conditions‚ watering amounts and light conditions. They must be grown in separated plant chambers‚ and the seeds will be planted in three pots and each grow chamber will be labeled. The amount of ECB that is added to the plantation must always be in the same quantity corresponding to the level of infestation. Also the amount of seeds must always be the same in every experiment. Hypothesis The yield of a Bt corn must be larger than the yield of

1. If there was no ECB infestation in a certain year‚ would a farmer gain or lose financially by planting Bt corn? Explain why. He might lose a little bit‚ but since there is no way to know if there will be an ECB infestation at planting time‚ he might still be better off to use Bt corn. There is almost always a residual number of corn borer and other insects left in the soil‚ even after treating a field‚ so the chances are too high that he might need to spray insecticides to keep the damage

Yield of CuCl2.2DMSO Formula weight (Mr) of CuCl2 = 63.55 + (35.45 x 2) =134.45g/mol Formula weight of product CuCl2.2DMSO = 134.45 + 2[16 + 32.06 + (12.01 x 2) + (1.0079 x 6)] = 290.704g/mol Mass of CuCl2= 0.850g Equation for reaction CuCl2 + 2DMSO -> CuCl22DMSO Mole ratio between CuCl2 and CuCl22DMSO = 1:1 Mole of CuCl2 = Mass/ Mr = 0.850/134.45 = 0.00632 moles Since the ratio between CuCl2 and CuCl22DMSO = 1:1‚ mole of CuCl2DMSO is also 0.0063 moles.

things about it. POTS was Named and identified by Schondorf and Low in 1993. But the symptoms for this disease have been recorded as early as 1940. At first it was just thought to be migraines and they didn’t look into it much after that because there was no reason to if it was just migraines. This disease is most likely to be found in a woman instead of a man. There is a 5 to 1 ratio that I find incredible. No one really knows why it is this way it just is.

Chapter 10 Bond Prices and Yields 1. a. Catastrophe bond: Typically issued by an insurance company. They are similar to an insurance policy in that the investor receives coupons and par value‚ but takes a loss in part or all of the principal if a major insurance claim is filed against the issuer. This is provided in exchange for higher than normal coupons. b. Eurobond: They are bonds issued in the currency of one country but sold in other national markets. c.
