1. The problem that is being tested by the researchers in this study is the effects of a low fat‚ plant based diet on participants in a multi-center corporation. More than half of Americans today are either overweight or obese and have an increased risk of type 2 diabetes‚ cardiovascular disease‚ hypertension and some cancers. The researchers wanted to test how a plant based diet will affect these factors in people in the workplace. They chose the work place because it is a place that people spend

In 1976‚ the Rizal Cement company‚ owned by the Madrigal family‚ came under the management of PHINMA under a management contract with the owners. In 1978‚ General Luzon Cement (now Central Cement)‚ a company foreclosed by PCI Bank‚ was purchased by PHINMA. In 1983‚ an expansion plant for the Davao Union Cement was constructed. In 1983‚ PHINMA also

Most of the plants growers nowadays are looking forward for an efficient yet affordable way of growing healthy plants‚ which are weed and worm free. The Group of “Kids of Einstein” has chosen this Investigatory Project entitled “Charcoal as Plant Fertilizer” with the idea that this will be the solution of most of the concerns of the plant-growers around the world. Charcoal can be an alternative for the commercial fertilizers

Biogas Plant The Bio-Gas Plant produces gas from the raw materials of human excreta and cowdung. The residue obtained from the plant is used as the food of fish. It is a system to process livestock wastes into safe‚ high-quality‚ efficient organic fertilizer without exhausting greenhouse gases into the air. These gas plants also contribute to safe-keeping and clean environment by preventing bad odor and contamination of the underground. Furthermore‚ they are capable of generating electric power

Having obstructed the realization of the plant for almost half a century‚ the grievous concern over safety issue is warranted by the list of more than thirty nuclear power plant accidents since 1957‚ led by the most devastating Chernobyl.

Khalan A. AP Biology Plants Immune Systems Plants serve as the main source of nutrients for countless organisms such as fungi‚ protists‚ vertebrates‚ and insects. In comparison to humans‚ a plant’s “immune system” is insignificant. However‚ plants have adapted and evolved chemical‚ physical‚ and protein based mechanisms to protect themselves against invaders. A plant’s first line of defense against pathogens is their innate immunity. The “innate-immune system” is a non-specific immune

Abstract The hypothesis states that plants respire at a faster rate if they are exposed to wind‚ opposed to no wind. This was tested by putting one plant in water in front of a fan and the other plant in water‚ but with no fan. The results showed that the plant in front of the fan transpired more. However‚ since the plant blew cold air it affected the rate of transpiration and altered the experiment. Overall‚ this experiment supports the hypothesis that wind makes plants transpire more.
