9.1 transport in xylem
9.1 transport in xylemlucascw
油
This document discusses plant transport in the xylem. It covers several key points:
- Transpiration causes water to move from the roots to the leaves to replace water lost through transpiration.
- Cohesion, adhesion, and capillary action allow water to move through the xylem vessels.
- Active uptake of minerals in the roots causes water absorption through osmosis.
- Adaptations like thickened cell walls, lignin, and pitted walls between vessels aid in water transport.Classification of elements

Classification of al elements & their periodicty and different trends in their properties, also an overview over the development of periodic table during 18 and 19 centuries
Sense perception and language
Sense perception and languageplangdale
油
This document discusses two ways of knowing - sense perception and language. It explores how each can be used to gain knowledge, justify conclusions, and communicate knowledge. However, it also notes limitations and problems with both. For sense perception, it mentions limitations, illusions, and how individual points of view can differ. For language, it discusses issues like ambiguity, context, and how meanings and understandings can vary between individuals and over time. The document aims to analyze both sense perception and language critically as ways of knowing.Cell differentiation notes
Cell differentiation notesPersonal
油
The document discusses the cell cycle and differentiation. It describes the three main stages of the cell cycle as interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis. Interphase is broken down into Gap 1, synthesis, and Gap 2 phases. Mitosis consists of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Cytokinesis is the final stage where the cell physically divides. Differentiation is when unspecialized cells become specialized cell types by turning on and off parts of their DNA. Stem cells can become any cell type while progenitor cells are somewhat specialized.Dalton's Atomic Theory
Dalton's Atomic TheoryMithu Sarkar
油
John Dalton developed atomic theory in the early 1800s based on careful chemical measurements. The main postulates of Dalton's atomic theory were that matter is composed of very tiny indivisible particles called atoms, atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties, and atoms of different elements have different properties and combine in small whole number ratios. While some aspects have been updated, Dalton's atomic theory of atoms as the basic building blocks of matter remains valid in modern chemistry.Ways of knowing (intuition and faith)
Ways of knowing (intuition and faith)plangdale
油
This document discusses intuition and faith as ways of knowing. It provides several definitions and examples of intuition, describing it as rapid, unconscious cognition based on past experiences. Intuition is discussed in contexts like sports, social judgments, and mathematics. While intuition can provide useful insights, it is not always correct and should be tested. Faith is defined as belief without proof or evidence. Views are presented that see faith as a type of trust or passionate belief, while others argue it requires personal commitment rather than absolute truth. The document explores relationships between faith, ethics, authority, science and both personal and shared systems of belief.Chapter 9
Chapter 9kau_deanship of e-learning and distance education
油
This document discusses key concepts in chemical bonding including Lewis dot structures, ionic and covalent bonds, electronegativity, writing Lewis structures, formal charge, resonance structures, and exceptions to the octet rule. It provides Lewis dot symbols for common elements, defines ionic and covalent bonds, discusses how to write Lewis structures through a step-by-step process, and explains concepts like formal charge, resonance, and species that violate the octet rule. Tables and diagrams are included to further illustrate these important bonding concepts.Chapter 8 Covalent Bonds
Chapter 8 Covalent BondsCurrituck County High School
油
1. Covalent bonds form when two atoms share one or more pairs of valence electrons in order to achieve a stable octet of electrons.
2. Molecules are formed when atoms are bonded together by covalent bonds, and molecular compounds are composed of molecules.
3. Molecular compounds tend to have lower melting and boiling points than ionic compounds and many are gases or liquids at room temperature.Senior Seminar Presentation

Mauy thaipim205
油
Muay Thai, also known as Thai boxing, originated in Thailand as a martial art for combat around 2000 years ago. It evolved from ancient combat techniques and was influenced by Chinese and Indian martial arts. Muay Thai later developed into a popular sport in Thailand, with formal competitions and rules established in the early 20th century. Key features of Muay Thai include the use of punches, kicks, elbows and knee strikes along with pre-fight dances to pay respect to teachers. It remains Thailand's national sport with dedicated stadiums and a strong cultural following.

My mother follows some Buddhist and animist beliefs. While she believes spirits exist everywhere, unlike animism she does not believe spirits determine health or cause misfortune. She owns protective amulets but does not rely on spirits. The interview with my mother about her Buddhist beliefs went smoothly since we know each other, though time was limited to only 8 questions. I learned more about how she practices her beliefs.Interview reflection

This national park in Southern Thailand aims to preserve its rainforests, wildlife, and biodiversity through sustainable tourism and involvement of local communities. It focuses on protecting four key species - the world's largest flower, a gibbon, clouded leopard, and helmeted hornbill. The park will educate visitors and locals about conservation, monitor animal populations, and work with NGOs and government agencies to fund research and development in the park. Regulations will limit disturbance to protect plants and animals while allowing sustainable recreation and tourism that benefits the local economy.Lab 22: Designing a National Park
Lab 22: Designing a National Parkpim205
油
This document outlines a plan to design a national park in Southern Thailand. The park aims to preserve the rainforest habitat and protect four key species - Rafflesia priceii, Hylobates lar, Neofelis nebulosa, and Rhinoplaz vigil. The plan involves educating local communities about conservation, hiring locals as park staff, monitoring wildlife populations, and partnering with NGOs to fund research and outreach. Strict rules will regulate visitor activities to minimize environmental impacts while generating income through tourism. The park design balances biodiversity preservation and sustainable local development.More Related Content
