Apple cider vinegar which has a pH of 2.9. Rain is considered acid rain when the pH is below pH 4. Therefore apple cider vinegar is capable of representing acid rain as its pH is below 4. In this experiment the germination, growth, and growth rate of Vigna Radiata (Mung beans) were collected and calculated when watered with a solution made of 100 mL of water and, the independent variable, different amounts (X mL) of apple cider vinegar. There were 6 trials in the experiment with varying concentrations
The mung beans is a major edible legume seed in Asia (India, South East-Asia and East Asia) and is also eaten in Southern Europe and in the Southern USA. The mature seeds provide an invaluable source of digestible protein for humans in places where meat is lacking or where people are mostly vegetarian (AVRDC, 2012). Mung beans are cooked fresh or dry. They can be eaten whole or made into flour, soups, porridge, snacks, bread, noodles and ice-cream. Split seeds can be transformed into dhal in the

One of the constants of currency is that it is constantly changing. Sometimes these changes are for the worse, and sometimes they are for the better. Changes in currency can cause prosperity or famine. Currency is reaching another stage of development due to the introduction of computer technology. Virtual currency has become a possibility for the future, and bitcoin is exploring that new idea. Bitcoin is a virtual currency that has the potential to be the future of currency and comes with both advancements
In plant growth, many factors take place for the plant to grow effectively such as: temperature, nourishment, and sunlight. In order for plants to grow at a steady pace they require stable lighting, stable temperature, and daily nutrients in order to grow properly. My fellow colleagues and I are testing whether or not Osmocote fertilizer treatment will have an outstanding effect on growth of the mung bean seeds. A fertilizer is a substance that is added to the soil to increase fertility. The osmocote
America will never forget the atrocity that is Sandy Hook. Once known as a peaceful school, Sandy Hook Elementary is now known as the site of another school shooting, one which resulted in a young adult slaughtering twenty children and six adult staff members (Chaney and Robertson 74). The perpetrator, Adam Lanza, shocked the small town of Newtown, Connecticut on December 14, 2012. He acted on his frustrations; murdering his own mother and slaughtering innocent children and civilians. Bewildered
1. What the characteristics of an ideal drought tolerant crop plant could be? Drought is considered as the most important environmental constraint affecting the plant growth and agricultural productivity worldwide. Climate change models predict drought to become worse. Drought stress could occur when the availability of water for plant is limited and the plant water demands exceed water supply. Many factors could lead to drought conditions, soil dryness, high evaporation, osmotic binding in saline
success. Conclusion The effect of the media on individual opinion is well documented. Direct correlation between media bias, voter turnout, and party affiliation was documented in a study performed shortly after Fox News entered the media scene (Della Vigna & Kaplan, 2006). The findings of this study support previous studies which suggest that subtle bias in media presentation of events can, over a period of time, change the perception of the general public. The advent of internet has begun the change
Knowing the difference between pole and bush lima beans (Phaseolus lunatus) is essential before starting the seeds in your garden. Hardy to U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 6 to11, these beans differ in yield and growing methods, which might make you prefer one over the other. (See References 1) Regardless of which type you grow, both are a nice addition in soups, stews and casseroles. About the Yield Bush and pole limas differ in that bush limas mature about 10 to 15 days earlier

time as, “From that broken stump issued together both words and blood; at which I let the branch fall, and I stood like one who is afraid.” (13.43-45). After Dante Pilgrim snaps a branch off this helpless tree, which we later find out is Pier della Vigna in which he indicates he served Emperor Fredrick II, the response stuns him. The agony of Pier frightens Dante Pilgrim at first, before he later states, “I cannot, so much pity takes my heart.” (13.84). Dante Pilgrim feels sympathy for the helpless
Introduction Weaning is a transition period from the age of 6-24 months in which infant’s meal is changed from breast feeding to the family food consequently it is considered a critical period in infant’s life and if not well managed, might lead to malnutrition and other health disorders (Nicklaus 2011). In developing countries, children usually suffer from malnutrition while being weaned, partly due to insufficient or inappropriate intake of safe and nutritious weaning foods. In addition, breast
Regulation of bile into the small intestine During the digestive period, intestinal phase signals stimulate the release of bile into the small intestine. This release is regulated by 3 main regulatory factors, secretin, cholecystokinin and gastrin. The liver makes bile continuously. When there is no food in the small intestine, the hepatopancreatic sphincter (the entrance of the common bile duct and pancreatic duct into the small intestine) is closed and the bile backs up into the gallbladder. When
2.1 Importance of cat’s whiskers 2.1.1 Nutritional value of cat’s whiskers Cat’s whiskers (Cleome gynandra L.), is a traditional vegetable consumed in quite a number of countries in Africa that include Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Surveys indicated that its production and utilization are on an increase due to its multiple underexploited benefits in terms of nutritional value (Brown et al., 2005). Chweya (1995) reported that this traditional vegetable is rich in minerals, vitamins, amino
eight children born to his parents, Botticelli being the youngest. In 1458 his father rented a small country villa in Careggi from the powerful Rucellai family, which was a place near Florence where the family moved into the house called the Via della Vigna Nuova. Botticelli's family, the Vespucci family, saw that Sandro had potential to become an amazing artist. They recommended him to the finest artists around for some teaching, but in 1460, at only 15 years old, Botticelli wanted to learn the art
Kristina Vigna Egyptian Religion Effects Culture Religion played one of the biggest roles in shaping the way that Egyptians lived their daily life and the affect it had on their culture. The polytheistic religion the Egyptians believed in ordered their lives and was said to help them maintain balance in their lives. Polytheism is the belief of more than one God. Ancient Egypt's culture and daily life was primarily based on religion and the Pharaohs success as a ruler. Religion is defined by
Obesity rates have been steadily rising for the past 50 years (Fryar, Carroll & Ogden, 2012), alongside the rise in fast food restaurants in the United States. An obese person is clinically defined as a person has too much body fat and a Body Mass Index (BMI) that exceeds 30. Fast food restaurants are identified as businesses that serve food quickly and easily to their customers. The content of most popular fast foods is generally known to be unhealthy but it does not deter the choice of people
The Oxford Dictionary gives five different definitions of the meaning of “politics.” One definition is: “activities within an organization that are aimed at improving someone’s status or position and are typically considered to be devious or divisive.” Another definition is: “a particular set of political beliefs or principles.” For a long time, politics has shaped the way that people write and think about life. Politics has been a major influence on literary works, such as Dante’s Inferno, Don Quixote
Movement and Stasis : The use of dynamics in the Divine Comedy Movement is a crucial theme of the Divine Comedy. From the outset, we are confronted with the physicality of the lost Dante, wandering in the perilous dark wood. His movement within the strange place is confused and faltering; `Io non so ben ridir com'io v'entrai'. Moreover, it is clear that the physical distress he is experiencing is the visible manifestation of the mental anguish the poet is suffering. The allegory of the image
