.... be highly structured and strain free.2 Decker proposed decaterpene in 1924, but that was all it was until 1933 when the structure was proven to exist. Isolated in the petroleum of Hodinin, Czechoslovakia by Landa and Machachaeck, decaterpene became incarnate.3 However, the fact that they found the structure Decker predicted did not mean that his nomenclature would be used to identify the compound. That honor was bestowed upon its discoverers Landa and Machcahcaeck who used the Greek translation of diamond, , to identify the compound.2 Crude petroleum is separated into its component compounds by fractional distillation. The procedure involves a sample of the petroleum to ....

.... have ignored the continuing cold fusion research. But cold fusion is far from dead. It is alive not only in dozens of laboratories in the United States, but in numerous foreign research centers, particularly in Japan. Cold fusion is a real but still incompletely explained energy-producing phenomenon that occurs when ordinary hydrogen and the special form of hydrogen called deuterium are brought together with metals, such as palladium, titanium, and nickel. Usually, some triggering mechanism, such as electricity or even acoustic energy, is required to provoke the "cold fusion" effects. Both ordinary hydrogen and deuterium are abundant in ordinary water so the process would ....

.... modified as paddle-shaped flippers, the bones of which are still reminiscent of jointed limbs and digits, but the hind limbs were lost. The broad horizontal tail flukes that provide the main propulsive thrust bear no anatomical connection to the lost hind limbs, but are a seperate and distint development. They contain no bone, and owe their firm and yet flexible shape to underlying fibrous elastic tissue. The body is enveloped in a thick layer of blubber that aids in bouyancy, helps to preserve body heat, and is a source of stored energy. A cetacean’s skin is free of sweat glands, oil glands, or hair, and feels much like smooth, wet rubber to the touch. Cetaceans, like ....

.... Since it will never really be known what went on in Roswell in 1947, the American people may never fully trust the government again. The Roswell incident is a very sketchy ordeal in which many people have different accounts. There is and was never any doubt that something crash landed. On July 8, 1947 the headline of the Roswell Daily Record read "RAAF Captures Flying Saucer on Ranch in Roswell Region." The next day, the headlines read "Weather balloon was mistaken as UFO." Many people wonder how someone with military experience could mistake a weather balloon for a UFO, which is why they are inclined to believe the first military report. From this point on, many ....

.... protection in mountainous areas. The is composed of several hundred species of plants, most of which are evergreen shrubs belonging to many plant families such as the rose, oak, heath, buckthorn, and sumac. Common shrubs of the are chamise, scrub oak, mountain lilac, manzanita, and sumac. The plants have evolved to withstand long, dry summers and strong autumn Santa Ana winds that create frequent fires. The leaves of the plants are mostly thickor needle like so it can reduce water loss through evaporation. The chamise, for example, has small, needle-like leaves that store up and save the moisture in the plant. The is the home of many species of reptiles, birds, and ....

.... mate on land near the sea. After the eggs develop, the female carries the eggs on her abdomen to the sea where she leaves them on wet sand or a wet rock for the tide to carry them out to sea. There are usually 1,000 to 50,000 eggs at a time. They are small larvae at sea where they molt several times in order to grow to reach the characteristics of a typical adult hermit crab. After reaching the adult larvae stage, the hermit crabs begin looking for a shell to live in. Once they mature and find a suitable shell, they come to live on land for the rest of their lives. Hermit crabs grow on land by shedding their exoskeleton. It takes about ten days for a hermit crab's skin to ....

.... of a human are organized into tissues such as muscle and nerve tissues. Plant tissues include those of the stem and root. Many cells in tissues are linked to each other at contact sites called cell junctions. Cell junctions help maintain differences in the internal environment between adjacent cells, help anchor cells together, and allow cells to communicate with one another by passing small molecules from one cell to another. Groups of two or more tissues that function together make up organs. An organ system is a group of organs that work together to carry out major life functions. Eukariotic Cell Structure: Boundaries and Control: Plasma Membrane - The plasma m ....

.... by the spells of acid smog in heavily industrialized areas. The widespread destructiveness of acid rain, however, has become evident only in recent decades. One large area that has been studied extensively is northern Europe. In 1984, for example, environmental reports indicated that almost half the trees in Germany’s Black Forest had been damaged by acid rain. This form of pollution has also particularly affected the northeastern United States and eastern Canada. Industrial emissions have been blamed as the major cause of acid rain. Because the chemical reactions involved in the production of acid rain in the atmosphere are complex and as yet little understood, ....
