Dangers of Cell Phones I am sure that most of you own cell phones and that you can’t leave your home without it. And that all of you think of cell phones as one of the most useful devices of our time. Despite all that‚ have you ever considered dangers of using cell phones or thought about the harmful effects of the microwave radiations? (Pause) Just 10 years ago‚ cordless telephones were something used only by big businesses and privileged persons‚ but Nowadays; it seems that every kid

Pluripotent Stem Cells and Embryonic Stem Cells Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells made from human somatic cells are a very recent technology of our world. They were first created using mice in 2006‚ and were created from human cells in 2007 by Japanese and US scientists. For many people‚ they represent a beautiful work of science that will help to save many lives. Induced pluripotent stem cells are human skin cells that have been reprogrammed to have the stem cells ability to differentiate

Cell Size: Is Bigger Better? Problem: Why are cells small? Objective: To see the relationship between cell size and diffusion of materials. Hypothesis: If we cut three different sizes of cells‚ then the smallest one will survive the longest due to its sufficient permeable membrane.

Determination of an Electrochemical Series In electrochemistry‚ a voltaic cell is a specially prepared system in which an oxidation-reduction reaction occurs spontaneously. This spontaneous reaction produces an easily measured electrical potential which has a positive value. Voltaic cells have a variety of uses and you commonly refer to them as a “battery”. Half-cells are normally produced by placing a piece of metal into a solution containing a cation of the metal (e.g.‚ Cu metal in a solution

Stem Cell Controversy Stem cells were first isolated and cultured in November of 1998 and have been surrounded with much debate and controversy since day one. “Although the ethical debates have been mostly static and have closely mimicked the ethical debates over abortion‚ the political determinations concerning federal funding of stem cell research have gone through numerous evolutions in the years since the first hESCs were isolated and cultured” (Saltzberg 505). Research is currently being

development of the microscope on the development of cell theory. Over a period of nearly 400 years‚ technology has impacted so significantly on humanities understanding of life. This is due to the development of the microscope‚ examining the invisible‚ discovering the building blocks of life‚ and the creation of the cell theory. This theory is so fundamental to our current knowledge of the functioning of living organisms. The development of cell theory is closely linked to the improvements of the

Associate Program Material Cell Energy Worksheet Answer the following questions: Cellular respiration: • What is cellular respiration and what are its three stages? A living version of internal combustion-is the main way that chemical energy is harvested from food and converted to ATP energy‚ it is also called an aerobic process‚ which is just another way of saying that it requires oxygen. So cellular respiration is defined as the aerobic harvesting of chemical energy

Hydrogen Fuel Cells There are many reasons to look for new cleaner forms of energy. Fossil fuels‚ being non-renewable‚ will eventually run out. Pollution from burning fossil fuels destroys our environment. Hydrogen fuel cells could be used many places where fossil fuels are currently being used. Using hydrogen as a form of energy can not only reduce our dependence on imported oil‚ but also benefit the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants that affect our air quality
