They belong in the family known as the Chondrichthyes which distinguishes them from other of aquatic life in which they have evolved to have special skeletons made up of cartilage and connective tissues.

Over seventy-three million sharks are killed a year due to shark finning. Shark finning is the process of removing shark fins at sea and discarding the shark’s body into the ocean while they are still alive. Sharks are a vital component of the ecosystem where shark finning threatens the stability of the food chain. Shark finning is diminishing not only the sharks‚ but the quality to sustain life among the bodies of water. Putting sharks to their death is inhumane by severely disrupting or unbalancing

most thrust. We are also testing if adding fins will affect the flight distance of the rocket. Hypothesis: The best ratio for potassium nitrate to powdered sugar is 1 to 3 because Grant Thompson‚ who has experimented with the best ratio of powdered sugar to potassium nitrate‚ has stated that “The 1 to 3 ratio is best for creating the most amount of thrust from your rocket.” This‚ paired with fins‚ will get the most distance from our rocket. the fins will block less air and stabilize the rocket

A labyrinth is classically a human construction designed to confuse. It can trap our lives‚ hiding our past and future and constantly forcing us to make choices‚ even though we may not know what the consequences of those choices might be. The confusion of the puzzle may even tempt us to run blindly through the labyrinth‚ ending in disaster. Life itself is often considered such a labyrinth‚ and by adopting the strategies of travelers who came before and choosing our path cautiously while playing

Cross Flow Heat Exchanger Experiment By Andres Rodriguez Abstract The design project of the group was to create an experiment for Thermo/Fluids Laboratory. The experiment will help aide the students in relating pressure drop and heat transfer in a cross flow heat exchanger. The experiment consists of three cross flow heat exchangers (bare inline‚ bare staggered‚ and finned staggered) that will cool hot water with current fan in the Laboratory. Optimal flow rates‚ pressure and temperature
