This document evaluates the potential of some isolated microalgae species to produce biodiesel. Fifteen microalgal isolates from brackish and fresh waters were tested for their ability to produce high biomass and lipid content. Three species - Chlorella vulgaris, Scenedesmus quadri, and Trachelomonas oblonga - showed the most promising results, with dry weights of 1.23 g/l, 1.09 g/l, and 0.9 g/l respectively and lipid contents of 37%, 34%, and 29% of dry weight. These results indicate that these three microalgae species have good potential for sustainable biodiesel production due to their high biomass and lipid yields
The document discusses how a magazine targeted young adult women ages 16-25 interested in rock music. It chose this audience because no current magazine caters specifically to women who enjoy this genre. To attract its target audience, the magazine uses:
- A cover image featuring a subject wearing dark makeup and clothing associated with rock artists. It uses the colors pink, green, and yellow and includes names of rock bands.
- A contents page with a clear font and informal language to feel welcoming. It features images of artists wearing menacing expressions and clothing relating to the genre.
- Articles and content geared towards topics the target audience cares about, beyond what male-oriented rock magazines cover.

This study aimed to control the mussel Brachidontes variabilis, a common biofouling agent in petroleum refineries, using bacterial strains. Bacillus thuringiensis was found to be highly effective against B. variabilis. The study optimized the cultural conditions of B. thuringiensis, including inoculum size, pH, temperature, carbon source, and salinity to maximize mortality of B. variabilis. Crude toxins extracted from B. thuringiensis caused histological and biochemical alterations in tissues of infected mussels. While toxic to B. variabilis, B. thuringiensis showed low toxicity to other sea organisms tested, indicating it may be
The respondent created a survey to collect feedback on their music video from their target audience of 16-19 year olds. Based on the responses, they learned that:
1) The majority of respondents were between 16-19 years old as intended.
2) Most respondents watched genres like dance, hip hop/rap, indie pop, and pop that aligned with the band's style.
3) Overall, respondents rated the song positively and found some clear connections between the visuals, music, and genre portrayed in the video.
4) While the storyline was rated as mediocre, respondents overall rated the video positively with a mean score of 7.96 out of 10.
The document summarizes and compares the key differences between the preliminary and final covers and contents pages designed by the author for two magazines - a school publication called "Confess" and a music magazine targeted at young women called "Rock Chick". For the final covers, the author improved the masthead layout and used cover images that better represented the magazine themes. Font, color, and graphic design choices for the cover text and contents pages were also updated for the final pieces to make the information easier to read and more aligned with each magazine's style and audience. Additional images and a letter from the editor were included in the final "Rock Chick" contents to further engage readers.
