Famous Quotations

Rosalind Franklin was a British scientist known for her work in determining the structure of DNA through X-ray diffraction studies. Her data, obtained without her knowledge, played a crucial role in the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA by Watson and Crick.

conclusions reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning.

No. Rosalind Franklin was not married and had no kids.

The Earth is an oblate ellipsoid-a sphere slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator. The distance around the Earth at the equator is 24,902 miles (40,075 kilometers). The distance around the Earth through the poles is 24,860 miles (40,008 kilometers).

The full rhyme is 'I before E except after C', but sounding like 'ay' as in 'neighbour' or 'weigh'. NO, it's

i before e except after c, WHEN the sound is ee (as in meet).

The EE sound and the C are important but don't expect there to be NO exceptions: you might think of seize, as well as protein and caffeine: -ein and -(e)ine refer to their chemical classifications. Then there's species.

Plurals of words like fancy-fancies are not thought of as exceptions, as you wouldn't expect anyone not to follow the rule that vowel+y=>ys monkey/s,while consonant+y=>ies

Otherwise, the normal pronunciation of ei is as in vein. Then there's heifer, as [heffer] and leisure the same - though Americans say lee-.

Biochemistry is all about the chemistry which goes on within living things!

Because chemistry is all about atoms and molecules etc biochemistry is at a molecular level.

For example, biochemistry could be the way DNA replicates within a cell and it investigates how it does so and what contributes.

The majority of Biochemistry is about the intricate goings-on inside cells.

You made a decision of some kind. Now you have to deal with the results of your decision. In other words, the uncomfortable place you now find yourself in is the result of your own choices.

It means he is responsible for the situation so he should have to deal with it.
This expression means, now that you have created this situation, you must take responsibility for it. :>)

In biology there are 8 characteristics a thing needs to have in order to be considered a living thing. Breathing isn't even one of these characteristics. They are as follows:

1. Ability to reproduce

2. Made of cells

3. Homeostasis

4. Responds to the enviornment

5. Can evolve

6. Grow and develop

7. Obtain and use materials and energy

8. Have a genetic code

The quote "Our eyes reflect the light of dead stars" reflects the scientific concept that the atoms in our bodies, including those in our eyes, were formed from elements produced in the cores of stars that have long since died. This highlights our connection to the universe and the idea that we are made of stardust.

All animals that use their limbs for locomotion have knee joints on their hind legs, just the same as humans. Creatures without legs would also have no knees.

Some of these include:

Snakes

Invertebrates

Fish

Marine Mammals

When watching 4 footed animals it often appears that they have no knees, this is because to run fast the knee has migrated up to the top of the leg so appears to be a hip (it remains in the same place on the front limbs

One rotten apple releases ethylene gas, which speeds up the ripening process of surrounding apples and causes them to spoil faster. This spoiling process then spreads as the other apples become contaminated with mold and bacteria from the rotten apple.

Universal suffrage means that everyone should have the right to vote. Without universal education, that is education available to everyone, voting by an ignorant population was of little value and too easily corruptible.

Defective plugs, bad plug wires, blown head gasket, burnt valve, blown intake manifold gasket, serious vacuum leak, or severely worn piston rings. The computer could be bad as well, I had one that would randomly make the car run like crap(misfire included) a quick tap with a screwdriver would either fix it or make the car stall, replacing the computer corrected the problem (90 cavalier 3.1L)

Alessandro Volta was an Italian physicist who is known for inventing the electric battery. One of his famous quotes is "The language of experiment is more authoritative than any reasoning: facts can destroy our ratiocination—not vice versa." This quote emphasizes the importance of empirical evidence in scientific research.

He was a theoretical physicists. For his work that made him famous, he did not need to run a laboratory. He is also known for his famous thought experiments. These were not real experiments, just hypothetical experiments he ran in his mind. Some of these thought experiments have been proven to be wrong, but they still contributed significantly to our understanding of physics. On the other hand, as he needed, he collaborated with other scientists who had their own labs either to develop new theories or to verify his previously stated arguments.

The hypothesis you are referring to is called the theory of continental drift, proposed by Alfred Wegener in the early 20th century. It suggests that all current landmasses were once part of a single supercontinent called Pangaea, which later broke apart and drifted to their current positions. This theory laid the foundation for the modern understanding of plate tectonics.

A flat map exaggerates certain countries close to the poles. A globe shows the bodies of land in their actual size. For example: Greenland looks huge on a flat map, but looks much smaller (its actual size compared to the other countries) on a globe.

Next, lines of longitude and latitude are more accurate on a globe.

A map is more practical for detailed navigation and planning due to its flat, easily portable format. Maps can show specific regions in more detail and can easily be marked up with annotations or additional information. Additionally, maps can incorporate various types of data and information layers for specific purposes.

Advantages: Contour maps show elevation changes and terrain features in a 2D format, making them easy to interpret and analyze. They provide valuable information for hikers, surveyors, and engineers to plan routes and construction projects.

Disadvantages: Contour maps may lack specific details on smaller features like buildings or roads, and they can be difficult for some people to understand without training in interpreting them. They may not provide real-time data and can become outdated as the landscape changes.

This expression implies that being silent and not speaking impulsively can indicate wisdom. It suggests that those who think before they speak are often considered wise because their quietness may reflect their careful and thoughtful nature.

The quote "To stake one's life for the truth is audacious; to guarantee victory over a lie is awe-inspiring." is attributed to J.M. Paulo.

This quote by John F. Kennedy suggests that while it may be difficult to resolve our conflicts at the moment, we can still strive to create an environment where diversity is welcomed and valued. By promoting diversity, we can work towards a world where different perspectives and beliefs are respected, leading to a more inclusive and understanding society.

The quote "Mine is better than ours" suggests a focus on individual possession and superiority over sharing or collective ownership. It reflects a mindset that prioritizes personal gain or achievement over collaboration or teamwork.

This is attributed to Benjamin Franklin

This quote by Jean-Jacques Rousseau suggests that human beings are naturally free, but societal forces and constraints restrict that freedom. It highlights the tension between individual liberty and the limitations imposed by social structures and norms. Rousseau argues that true freedom can only be achieved by breaking free from these chains of society.
