Problems Related to Population Growth Population growth is a major issue within today’s world‚ with the rapid and exponentially increasing rate of population growth causing problems with overcrowded areas affecting the business environment as well as everyday life. The world’s population is at an estimated 7 billion people (BBC‚ 2011) and ‘at today’s rate‚ population would skyrocket by 2100‚ to 27 billion from today’s 7 billion’. (Harvard Gazette‚ 2012).

many countries have tried different preventive measures & engaged in joint projects to lower their suicide rates. Countries like China‚ Japan‚ Singapore‚ Australia & Pakistan have joined the project‚ Strategies to Prevent Suicide (STOPS)‚ in order to lessen their increasing number of suicide. However‚ in trying to prevent the increase in number of suicide deaths and attempts‚ one must know what the leading causes of it are.

respiration by how much carbon dioxide is produced and how using different sugar types affects rate of respiration. The experiment showed that the yeast produces the highest volume of CO2 with glucose. It also showed the yeast respires at its lowest rate with sorbose and maltose was in between the rate of yeast respiration of glucose and maltose. Introduction In this investigation we are going to investigate the amount of respiration by how much carbon dioxide is produced‚ and how using sorbose

Strategy I am investigating how the rate of reaction differs when we change the concentration of Hydrochloric Acid whilst reacting with Magnesium. The rate of reaction is explained by the Collision Theory. This theory explains how various factors affect the reaction rates and how chemical reactions occur. The 4 factors of the Collision Theory are: • Temperature • Concentration • Surface area • Catalyst I am investigating how different concentrations of acids affect the rate of reaction. However I
