    need plants for eating, but also need their created oxygen to break the food down efficiently. In humans, cellular respiration also produces heat also needed in the body for thermoregulation, Thermoregulation that is an example of temperature homeostasis in humans, requires heat energy to maintain a relatively constant internal temperature. All the heat energy that is needed for survival would not exist without plants. Water is also a requirement in humans, and is needed for the body to balance

    thermal energy in heat engine that is unavailable to be converted into work (i.e. transferred through a change in form or location).The second law of thermodynamics stipulates that within a self-contained system like a heat engine, the aggregate measure of entropy must remain the same or increase over time because with no external energy inputs, the system’s net energy flow gradually subsides as the gaps between its higher and lower energy particles decrease through the transfer of heat as they interact

    which breaks down Hydrogen Peroxide, this gives off water and oxygen as effervescence. This effervescence is what is used to measure the reaction rate of the catalase. The optimal heat for enzyme activity is proven to be 37oC as anything above this denatures the enzyme. Denaturing is where the heat energy of breaks down the di-sulphide, ionic and hydrogen bonds that hold the tertiary structure together, this in turn changes the shape of the active site and so halts any reactions

    and that in fact that is all it has. The truth is that it required a lot of research and procedures to come up with the right materials to people to withstand rigorous conditions. In other words, materials had to be engineered to work with extreme heat, cold and pressure changes. Due to some other issues such as collision from debris and unforeseen events the space shuttle had to be cancelled. The risks were too high even with all the engineering of materials. During the 1955 the race to see who

    friction between the piston and the cylinder wall, determine the heat transfer to the air, in kJ. First Law- Additional Exercises: Problem 13: A system executes a quasi-static process from an initial state 1 to a final state 2, absorbing 80 kJ of heat and expanding from 2.0 m3 to 2.25 m3 against a constant pressure of 1.5 bar. The system is brought back to its initial state by a non-quasi-static process, during which it rejects 100 kJ of heat. What is the work done during the second process? Problem

    A dangerous atmospheric devation is the best test confronting our planet. It is, actually, the expansion in the temperature of the world 's neon-surface air. It is a standout amongst the most present and broadly talked about variables. It has broad effect on biodiversity and climatic states of the planet. A few ebb and flow inclines plainly show that a dangerous atmospheric devation is straightforwardly affecting on rising ocean levels, the dissolving of ice tops and noteworthy overall atmosphere
