A thermostatic radiator valve is a valve that is connected to the hot water heating system. It can control the room temperature by regulating the amount of water that goes into the radiator. The valve is able to control this by sensing the temperature of the air.

What is a xenotransplant?

Xenotransplantation is the transplantation of living cells, tissues or organs from one species to another such as from pigs to humans. Such cells, tissues or organs are called xenografts (xenotransplants). The term allotransplantation refers to a same-species transplant. A good example of this is a pig heart valve replacement in a person who has a diseased heart valve.


How do you tell if you've overfilled your radiator and what are the consequences of doing so?

On older cars / trucks that do not have a coolant recovery tank you should fill the radiator to approximately one inch below the opening. ( when the engine is COLD } On more modern cars / trucks that have a coolant recovery tank, the radiator should be completely filled and the recovery tank should be filled to the full cold mark. You should only do this when the engine is cold to avoid personal injury. Why is the cooling system low? A pressure test should be performed and all leaks repaired.


What is the difference between the left and right atria in the frog?

The Atrioventricular Valves are the valves that stop back flow from the Ventricles to the Atria. In some images these valves may be shown to be attached to tiny muscles called Papillary muscles. These Muscles are continuous with the cardiac muscle of the heart walls. The AV valve on the left is called the Bicuspid (or Mitral) valve and the one on the right the Tricuspid valve. This is because the bicuspid has only two flaps (and looks like a bishops hat) whereas the tricuspid has three.
