salts in saltwater dissolves into ions or charged particles that conduct electricity‚ they interact with the earth`s magnetic fields. The movement of saltwater due to tides that produces an electric current generates a smaller magnetic field”(Ayque‚ 10/3/16‚ Scientist Discover New Way To Image Earth’s Interior Using Magnetic Fields‚ paragraph 5 http://www.natureworldnews.com/articles/29550/20161003/scientists-discover-new-way-image-earth-interior-using-magnetic-fields.htm).

Macromolecules are molecules that are large and essential for life. They consist of carbohydrates‚ nucleic acids‚ proteins‚ and lipids. Carbohydrates are molecules that are composed of monosaccharaides. Carbohydrates include cellulose‚ starches‚ and sugars. Two tests may be used to determine the presence of the carbohydrates. Those tests are the Benedict’s test and Lugol’s Iodine Test. Proteins are another category of macromolecules. The protein is a type of macromolecule that carry out many processes

Give evidence to support your suggestion (include a full description of the macromolecules you describe both in terms of structure and function) Introduction All the four macromolecules=lipids‚ proteins‚ carbohydrates and nucleic acids= are essential for the functioning of an organism ’s body (Campbell‚ biology). They work hand in hand to help us survive. For example

In every mixture there was 5 ml of (stock solution/the three unknowns/our constant) separately mixed with 1 ml of each testing reagents. After running the experiments we can conclude that each of the three supplements do in fact contain some amounts of protein. Supplement number one tested positive for starch‚ protein‚ and sugars. This specific supplement contains the highest level of fillers as

Macromolecule is a very large molecule which can get collected in the kidneys. Generally‚ the molecular weight of the macromolecular vehicle is bigger than that of the prodrugs and so this kind of system can achieve the objective. Pro-drugs have the capability to select the goal in the kidney because it can release the active drug by the action of renal enzymes

In this lab activity students performed an experiment with the use of distilled water and baking soda solutions as control. The experimental controls are accuracy indicators of laboratory results. Thus‚ controls are important in a lab because the observation results are dependent on the controls. The experimental results can be determined to be valid when it is compared with the control solution. The higher the similarity between the results and the control solution‚ the more accurate the investigation
