    Gina Mansour English 111 1/24/2013 The Norton Reader Answers from On Dumpster Diving (pg. 28) 1. Eighner organizes his essay by breaking down how and why scavengers do what they do to survive. He begins his essay with how he became a scavenger and follows that with how to scavenge the best, safest way possible. He communicates how to choose the right dumpsters to dive into, how to determine if food is edible, and whether items are worth holding onto. I believe Eighner chose this type of

    In my paper you will be pleased to find that I talked about three different topics that are important to me discussing Stiff by Mary Roach. The first topic talks about how cadavers are used in so many different areas and kinds of research. Cadavers are used in many different areas of research, but all areas give information that will better the future. Without the knowledge the use of cadavers give us, we would be so uneducated in not only the medical field, but many other fields of study as well

    What happens to our bodies when we die? There are many different options we have when it comes to the handling of our bodies; whether we choose a more traditional route, such as burial or cremation, or an alternative method such as the newer idea of being buried in a suit made of mushrooms rather than a coffin (Rogers). There’s even the third option donating your body in some way to science to aid in education and scientific advancement in the years after you are no longer alive. The concept that

    Abstract: Thermal analysis data is used to determine the mechanism of decomposition, reaction energetics, and gas evolution of a material, specifically calcium silicate, also called limestone. Based on the basic rules of thermodynamics, a hypothesis can be formed that, as limestone is heated, it decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide due to heat transfer and the creation of impurities. The addition of silicon oxide, or quartz, can also cause limestone to decompose in the same manner. This
