The effect of mobile phone radiation on human health is the subject of recent interest and study‚ as a result of the enormous increase in mobile phone usage throughout the world (as of June 2009‚ there were more than 4.3 billion users worldwide). Mobile phones use electromagnetic in the microwave range. Other digital wireless systems‚ such as data communication networks‚ produce similar radiation. The WHO has classified mobile phone radiation on the IARC scale into Group 2B - possibly carcinogenic

Rapid Cycling Brassica Investigations Jeffery Gray Abstract: Rapid-cycling brassicas has been used by researchers because of traits that make it convenient to study such as: short life cycle‚ rapid flowering time and seed maturation‚ small size‚ and ability to grow under 24 hour fluorescent light‚ etc... These traits make RCBr’s valuable laboratory models for students to study inheritance and selection along with evolution. Trichome/hairs on plants are extremely variable in their

Intelligence In my high school your intelligence level is based on your ability to master material in difficult courses‚ which is quite different to people the same age in the Amazon rain forest. Their intelligence level is based on their knowledge of the medicinal properties of local plants. In both of these very different locations intelligence is the ability to learn from experience‚ solve problems‚ and use knowledge to adapt to new situations. General intelligence is also known as the g

Concepts of Radiation Radiation * Emission of energy from an atom and the transmission of this energy through space. * Energy propagated in a material medium or space. * Energy in transit. What are the types of radiation? * Radiation is of two general types in our environment. * They are called non-ionizing and ionizing. Ionization * the energy transferred to the electrons causes them to be pulled away or removed from an atom entirely. * The result is the

International Journal of Medical and Biological Sciences 6 2012 Estimation of Electromagnetic Radiation from Base Station Antenna R. K. Singh Abstract—In the present paper‚ an observation of electromagnetic radiation from base station antennas installed for various communication purposes has been done on the basis of equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) calculations. For this purpose‚ a typical wireless communication site has been selected where GSM‚ CDMA‚ 3G/UMTS and WiMAX antennas are

Radiation Exposure Do you know much radiation you are exposed to everyday? Many people are not aware of the radiation levels around them on a daily basis. I believe that exposure to radiation should be minimal. I think protection and prevention is vital. Being aware of the health risks and what can be done to protect yourself should be a well known piece of knowledge. If followed‚ this knowledge can help reduce radiation exposure levels. Exposure to radiation is higher today than it has ever

When a population grows rapidly‚ it can put great stress on an area such as a community or a country. When sudden extreme population growth occurs‚ food will become a prized possession‚ more people will die due to disease and war‚ and the economy will be affected. As a population grows‚ all the additional people will need food immediately to survive. There will not be time to develop new sources of food over many years. Instead‚ more and more people will need food more and more and the food will

Effects of soil ph variation on radish plants growth Background information: the soil ph can have 2 different impacts on the growth of plant roots. First and most important is how it affects the concentration of nutrients present in the soil itself. This variable varies depending on the ph tendency‚ in particular‚ nutrients like phosphorous‚ potassium ‚sulphur‚ calcium and magnesium tend to drastically decrease in more acidic ph conditions (<6.0)‚ on the other hand iron‚ manganese‚ boron
