ABSTRACT In this work an investigation into the effect of alloying additions (Mn‚ Cu‚ Sb and Zr) on microstructure and corrosion of Zn alloys and hot dip galvanised coatings was undertaken. The first part of this thesis focuses on the effect of alloying additions on the corrosion of Zn alloys. The result shows that Mn is the most beneficial addition‚ which can significantly improve the resistance

The Effects of Secondary Plant Compounds on Lumbriculus Variegatus Heart Rate Introduction Blackworms (Lumbriculus variegatus) were used in this experiment to study the effects of secondary plant compounds‚ chemical compounds produced by plants that are not part of the general metabolism‚ on pulse rate. Secondary plant compounds act as defense mechanisms which reduce or eliminate consumption of some plant species or even attract predators. These compounds are not essential to the plant but often

"Explain the concept of homeostasis with reference to the control of heart rate‚ breathing rate‚ body temperature and blood glucose levels" P5 Homeostasis is where the body keeps a constant internal environment. This involves all the metabolic processes taking place In the body as well as the blood‚ tissue fluid and all the contents in the body ’s cells. There are a range of variables from heart rate to the blood glucose levels that the body will take into account. Negative feedback will occur

Science: Abstract: This investigation is to show the raspatory and circulatory systems in deeper meaning. It also explains the reasons for why breathing and heart rate becomes higher during physical activity‚ and if there are any differences between female and males. This experiment shows the biological principles‚ and how to record and produce data of a quality standard. Introduction: Air goes into the alveoli when we breathe in. This lets the veins around the alveoli drop of their carbon dioxide
