According to Dickerson et al., many animals, including dogs, have loose skin that is beneficial to shaking off water. Through video evidence, it was determined that the maximum deflection of dog fur while shaking is 90°. The average dog’s dermal tissue, all substance between the fur and muscles, has a maximum deflection of 60°, measured by rotating the skin around the dog’s bodies while standing stationary. Through subtraction, it can be deduced that the maximum vertebral deflection is 30°. This
One type of cellular transport is osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of a solvent through a selectively permeable membrane until the cell reaches stability or osmotic equilibrium. When there is no cell wall, such as in animal cells, solute concentration gradient and membrane permeability are taken in account for tonicity, the ability to gain or lose water. When a cell becomes isotonic, there is no movement across the membrane because the volume of the cell is stable and has reached osmotic equilibrium
To investigate the rate at which Tetrahymena consume “food” we preformed two labs. In the first lab, we had Tetrahymena consume India ink and then measured the number of food vacuoles over various time periods. Our hypothesis was that there would be more vacuoles visible over a longer length of time in the Cytochalasin and Colchicine than in the vehicle (70% ethanol) because the ethanol does not affect actin filaments or microtubules, whereas the other two do. In our Lab #4 experiment we observed
My first procedure that I completed was the filtration. When I mixed the lead (II) nitrate and the sodium iodide together, I got a bright yellow liquid that turned out to be lead (II) iodide. I believe I did this part of the procedure correct because the color was not too pale and I did not use too much lead (II) nitrate or sodium iodide. I used the correct amount to get the results that were listed on the laboratory, In procedure D, Glassworking, cutting the glass came out great. I followed all
Osmosis in a Decalcified Egg to Determine the Glucose Content of an Egg Tovah King C62 7/5/2017 Abstract: Diffusion is the transfer of molecules from an area that has a higher concentration to an area that has a lower concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water. The purpose of this experiment was to study the process of osmosis. In order to test osmosis, eggs that had been soaking in vinegar were taken and placed in four beakers of solution with different levels of glucose
Additionally, beam hardening happens as the energy levels of polychromatic X-ray beams used with the CBCT are not uniform, so the lower energy photons can be absorbed easily at the edges of the scanned area causing hardening of the X-ray beam, which resulting in lower gray values toward the subject center causing what is called cup¬ping artifact even if the density all over the subject is identical (91) Ring artifacts caused by defects or un- calibrated components in the detector forming concentric
Inhomogeneous liquid bound in nanopores is of impressive significance in different modern procedures and logical fields for example, adsorption, polymers, grease and tribology. The properties of liquid bound in nanopores or nanochannels are not quite the same as those in the mass stage because of divider particle communications and divider geometry. A ton of research has been routed to speak to the inhomogeneous conduct of restricted liquids from exploratory estimations, atom reproductions to hypothetical
this study. The CER cutoff for differentiating Clear from Non Clear RCC sub- types was >0.4751 with a sensitivity and specificity of 100% in the cortical phase and >0.8012 with a sensitivity of 95.8% and specificity of 100% in the nephrographic phase. Yamamoto et al. [14] reported a cutoff value of 0.4 with a sensitivity of 92.1% and specificity of 85.7% in the cortical phase and 0.8 with a sensitivity of 96.8% and specificity of 57.1% in the nephrographic phase. There is agreement in the cutoff
Chemical machining Chemical machining (CHM) process is a controlled chemical dissolution (CD) of a workpiece material by contact with strong reagent (etchant). Special coatings called maskants protect areas from which the metal is not to be machined. It is one of the non-conventional machining processes. The advancement of technology causes to the development of many hard-to-machine materials: stainless steel, super alloys, ceramics, refractories and fiber-reinforced composites due to their high
In order to determine the most influential geological parameters affecting the Gas Assisted Gravity Drainage process, sensitivity analysis was conducted through Design of experiments (DoE). DoE combines multi-level of each parameter to create many computer experiments evaluated by the compositional reservoir simulation. The factors that were adopted in this case are horizontal permeability, anisotropy ratio $K_{v}/K_{h}$, and porosity, all given for the entire reservoir. The most influential factors
