Health-care waste management in India is receiving greater attention due to recent regulations (the Biomedical Wastes (Management & Handling) Rules‚ 1998). The prevailing situation is analyzed covering various issues like quantities and proportion of different constituents of wastes‚ handling‚ treatment and disposal methods in various health-care units (HCUs). The waste generation rate ranges between 0•5 and 2•0 kg per bed per day. It is estimated that annually about 0•33 million tonne of waste are

DESIGN: Research Question What effect does varying the alcohol concentration of yeast have on its fermentation? Introduction Fermentation is the stage during which most CO2 is produced. When no oxygen is available‚ yeast will switch to an alternate metabolic pathway utilizing sugars for energy and producing‚ primarily‚ CO2 and ethanol. Yeast divides rapidly in this phase‚ reaching its carrying capacity (about 50 million cells/ml) in the wort‚ or must‚ and remains suspended

Andrew Eguia Dr. Harjani Medical Biology P5 2/14/12 Chapter 11 Review P216 1. DNA consists of subunits called nucleotides. Each subunit consists of three parts: sugar (deoxyribose)‚ phosphate‚ and base. 2. The subunits of DNA are assembled by linking the sugar of one nucleotide to the phosphate of the next. As it is found in chromosomes‚ two DNA polymers are bound together into a structure called a double helix. 3. The “base-paring rule” in DNA is that adenine pairs with thymine

Cell Division and the Cell Cycle 1) Define the following terms: Meiosis The production of daughter cells that have one half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. It enables organisms to reproduce sexually. Mitosis The production of two daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell. Parent cell=haploid‚ daughter cell=haploid. Parent cell=diploid‚ daughter cell=diploid. Chromosome A structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells‚ which carry genetic
