Introduction

Mexico is one the richest regions in the world in animal and plant diversity. It is divided into three regions: Southern, Northern and Central Mexico. Each region has unique geographical regions with different climate ranging from tropical jungles and forests to mountains and deserts. Many biological inventories refer this country to the category of mega-diverse country that means that a region is a home to about 60-70% of entire biological diversity of the world. Such natural diversity of flora and fauna allows for people living in Mexico to have a rich and varied diet. (De la Borbolla 42) The ...

Description

Ideally, nuclear power refers to the energy released by nuclear plants through processes of fusion and fission. Nuclear energy uses fuel generated from mined and processed uranium to produce steam and generate electricity. The process of producing electricity through nuclear reactors is relatively similar to the way other plants produce electric energy (Ferguson 40). Specifically, the nuclear power station converts the nuclear energy in uranium particles into electricity by splitting the atoms to create heat. The heat is used to turn turbines that are connected to a generator. Subsequently, the generator produces electricity. The main advantage of nuclear energy ...

The Cold War was not only a period in American history where the United States was locked in a massive international rivalry and arms race with the Soviet Union but it was a time of fervent technological, strategic and political development. The United States during World War II had developed a massive new process for technical progress with an applied goal. That is to say, the Manhattan project which culminated with the building of the first ever Atomic bomb was a very important milestone. It showed that civilians and the military could work together for a common goal. While ...

Abstract

The terrorist attacks on the United States in 2001 revealed the need for information sharing between different local, state, and federal agencies. This resulted in the formation of Department of Homeland Security to coordinate the counterterrorism efforts. The Department created fusion centers that served as facilities of gathering and analyzing information from relevant agencies. The fusion centers have faced constant criticism from researchers regarding their effectiveness and spending but have been successful in stopping several terrorist plans. This has saved thousands of lives and millions of dollars. However, the numerous agencies working towards the same goal has brought about ...

Introduction

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a very influential technique that helps in amplifying the specific segments of DNA. This biochemical procedure is performed in-vitro that is quite different from cloning. This technique is a fusion of synthesis protocol of distinct repeated segments of DNA and thermostable DNA polymerase application that has given scientists a very potent analytical, immunological and molecular technique used prevalently in clinical laboratory science (Garibyan & Avashia, 2013). PCR is based on three primary steps that include denaturation of the template into single strands, annealing ...

Gun control in America is one of the most controversial issues and subjects in the current United States. This topic of gun regulation and oversight seems to have been further exacerbated by the fact that the issue has been politicized beyond reasonable proportions. The politicization has led to people digging in on this matter and adopting radical positions as opposed to working together for a rational approach to gun ownership. Nonetheless, a causal glance at the present gun ownerships makes it glaringly evident that the United States need a more gun control laws. This is even more important when ...

Hence, a new governor must be briefed on the homeland security and how it applies to the state. The paper will provide the new governor with the essential ...

Uses of Hydrogen in the Industry

Hydrogen is a colorless, odorless, flammable, non-toxic and flammable gas at atmospheric temperature. Due to its properties, hydrogen is one of the main starting factors used substance in chemical industries. It is the basic building block in manufacturing of ammonia (Ramachandran, & Raghu, 5). Hydrogen is used mainly in the manufacturing of two chemical components, which are ammonia and methanol. These chemical components are made industrially. The manufactured ammonia is used in fertilizer manufacturing industries while methanol is used in the manufacturing of polymers. Hydrogen is also used in oil refining industries for reforming oils to obtain a high-quality grade ...

Gravitational, electromagnetic, strong and weak nuclear forces. Gravitational force is an attraction between any two pieces of matter in the universe. Electromagnetic force is present in pieces of matter, which are able to carry electrical charge. Strong force is holding the nuclei of atoms together. Weak force is responsible for radioactive decay. Molecules are built from the atoms and atoms consist of protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are built of smaller particles called quarks. Electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all the light in the universe. Depending on the wavelength and frequency there are radio, micro, infrared, ...

Re: extended definition of solar power and nuclear power

Purpose This memo is an extended definition of solar power and nuclear power as sources of energy. Introduction Solar power is energy from the sun. This energy is harnessed by collecting sunlight and converting it to electricity (Winter et al. 4). The cells found in the solar panels make this conversion possible. The conversion of sunlight to electricity can either be done indirectly by the use of a concentrated solar panel or directly by use of the photovoltaic cell. Nuclear power, on the other hand, utilizes nuclear reactions to produce nuclear energy (Murray 495). This energy is found in ...
