    creature that lived in Africa. Archaeologist found a skeletal structure of what is know to be the oldest know finding of a prehistoric human, lucy. Lucy was found on November 24, 1974. She is around three-point-one eight million years old according to carbon dating. One of the major push factors that show that lucy is a common ancestor of man is that it can walk on legs. “As in a modern human’s skeleton, Lucy 's bones are rife with evidence clearly pointing to bipedality. Her distal femur shows several

    Introduction: This work is more focused on exceptional optical properties of metal NPs to promote efficient models to govern the complex properties of nanoparticles enhanced composites. It contains matrix design along with electrical and optical characteristics. To eliminate the inadequacy to portray the film particles distribution and to gauge the dielectric properties of NPs-doped films, a novel alteration proved to be more amenable as well as need low processing temperature compared to the traditional

    Fossils have been around for thousands of years, they are our window to the past. The word “fossil” comes from a Latin word “Fossus” meaning ‘dug up’. Fossils show us how life was in the past which is conserve in soil, rocks or amber. A small amount of them are usually the remaining parts of organisms, like plants or animals but only the hard parts fossilize. Internal organs like muscle or skin rapidly discompose. Fossils are one of the most valuable pieces of information of our Earths history.

    scientific study of organic materials, those that contain carbon atoms. Organic compounds are classified into families that are known as homologous series. The members of each homologous series share some common features. A homologous series is composed of compounds that have the same general formula (functioning group), usually the only differentiation is the length of the carbon chain or number of monomers. The difference in the length of the carbon chain can have an effect on many physical properties

    ABSTRACT: In this account, phosphorylated chitosan (PCS) were first deposited on the surface of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) via chemical modification to obtain functionalized MWNTs-based PCS (PCS-MWNTs). Then, a series of PET fibers with MWNTs or PCS-MWNTs were prepared via melt spinning. The microstructure and molecular structure of MWNTs and PCS-MWNTs were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR spectroscopy. The morphological

    Brianna Cross 10/28/16 Chemistry Essay Arsenic Arsenic is one of the most toxic elements that can be found on Earth. Arsenic has a symbol of As and an atomic number of 33. It is a metalloid which gives it both metal and nonmetal characteristics. Arsenic has many allotropes, but the gray form is important for industry. The three main allotropes are metallic gray, black, and yellow. Gray arsenic is brittle and has a low hardness (based on the Moh’s hardness scale) yet a high density. Yellow
