The electromagnetic spectrum is made up of six different types of waves. Radio waves‚ Microwaves‚ Infrared waves‚ Visible light‚ Ultraviolet light‚ X-rays and Gamma rays. The radio waves are used to transmit radio and television signals. The infrared waves are used to tell temperature of areas. Visible light is all the colors that we can see. Ultraviolet light can help things grow but to much can cause diseases such as skin cancer. X-rays are used as a tool to find broken bones or take pitchers

Mr. Van Boening English 12 Block 8 6 October 2014 Autism Spectrum Disorder Autistic children experience the world a lot more differently than others. For example‚ children with autism are not capable of using words‚ and have a hard time communicating in general by any means. Specific sounds‚ like loud crashes and yelling‚ would bother an autistic child that wouldn’t normally bother a child that wasn’t autistic. We need to learn more about autism so we can handle it‚ as it is the fastest growing

that autism is a ‘mental illness’ (following the definition above)‚ but it is rather a condition with some elements of illness‚ but more strengths and differences. The illness aspect comes into the condition a little because of how certain medical and mental health issues can go alongside autism‚ such as Gastrointestinal Disorders‚ ADHD‚ anxiety and phobias‚ night terrors and sleep disturbances‚ and seizures/epilepsy. Autism is also referred to as ‘Autism Spectrum Disorder’ because the spectrum ranges

Describe your strongest dimension on the personality spectrum. My strongest dimension on the personality spectrum is coping with pressure. I always knew that I worked very well under pressure‚ because of past job I have worked‚ and the situations they placed me in. I always try to be an optimistic type of person viewing the glass as half full instead of half empty. As I see it‚ if a situation is bad‚ it could always go from bad to worse. One reason I excel at work is that I don’t sweat the small

ADHD and Autism I chose this topic of ADHD and autism because I had heard of these two disorders many times before and had always wondered what they were. The subject of why children act differently than others had always interested me since I was little. I have experienced and interacted with a young boy that had autism before and I found that the way he interacted with me and others around him was fascinating. Before researching‚ I knew that ADHD and autism weren’t sicknesses like the flu

Radios and microwaves both use radiation from the electromagnetic spectrum Visible light can be split into a spectrum of colours .. from red through the rainbow colours to violet but visible light is just a small part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum All the different types of electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed through a vacum .. the waves can be orderd by wave length remebered that waves with the shortest wave lengths have the highest frequency and the most energy and the waves

but concerns now exist stating that there is a link between these vaccines and autism spectrum disorder. Some individuals go further and believe that vaccines like the Measles‚ Mumps‚ and Rubella vaccine cause children to become autistic. Parents now have to decide whether or not to vaccinate their children‚ a decision that could eventually mean life or death. There may be a possibility their child will develop autism or become infected with a preventable disease. This article will explain this possible

The Figure 6-18 in my text book was an example of an electromagnetic spectrum‚ which is all wavelengths of light both seen and unseen (Trefil & Hazen‚ 2010). The display of the electromagnetic spectrum showed gamma rays‚ X-rays‚ ultraviolet light‚ infrared‚ visible light‚ microwave‚ radio waves‚ as well as a visible spectrum wavelength (Trefil & Hazen‚ 2010). The diagram shows at what frequency and wavelength each wave moves and what it allows us to see‚ hear‚ and feel with visible light

Electro Magnetic Spectrum Fontana Chemistry period 3 December 3‚ 2012 James Clerk Maxwell discovered the electromagnetic spectrum in 1862. The electromagnetic spectrum is a map of all the types of light that can be identified. It classifies different types of light by wavelength to show how much energy the wave has. The more energy the wave has the shorter the wavelength and the less energy a waves has the longer the wavelength. Not all light is in the visible spectrum. There are many kinds

Different political views are represented by the political spectrum. The spectrum shows that on the extreme left end is communist views and on the extreme left is dictatorship views and anywhere in between is liberal‚ conservative or a combination of both parties. In the left end views are that everyone is equal and has the right to have the same things as every other person whereas on the right side views are that the successful should be awarded. Political parties on the right and those on the
