What is involved in bloody typing and screening?

Blood typing and screening involves testing a person's blood to determine their blood type (A, B, AB, or O) and Rh factor (positive or negative). This information is important for blood transfusions and maternal-fetal compatibility. The screening also checks for the presence of unexpected antibodies in the blood that could cause transfusion reactions.

What are steel springs made out of?

Alloy, carbon, and stainless steels were the most commonly used spring materials because of their strength. Titanium, however, was gaining popularity in the early 1990s because of its superior strength, light weight, and resistance to corrosion.

Is a computer a solid?

Yes, what else would it be? what kind dah!

What do all solids have what in common?

(Edit (7:53pm) to add paragraph on how to break bonds.)

-

In layman's terms the property that most solids share is the fact that the atoms/ or molecules within them are held together strongly by intermolecular forces, causing the atoms/ molecules to be detained and relatively unable of movement (until an external stimuli such as heat is added).

The strongest form of bond is a covalent bond as it involves the use of one (or possibly more, but that's more advanced) electron by two atoms. This causes the bond between the two atoms to be quite strong. Any external stimuli (such as heat) that is applied to this bond will have to contain a lot of energy to split the strong bond.

The most effective intermolecular forces that hold the solids together (in most cases) are covalent bonds, as these forms of bonding usually contain strong bonds between the atom/ molecules, due to their need to share electrons. Solids containing covalent bonds are therefore stronger and consequently have higher melting/ boiling points as it will take more energy to brake the bond.

Other, and potentially weaker, forms of bonding include lattices, ionic bonding, dispersion forces, and covalent hydrogen bonding, just for example.

I am a year 11 chemistry student, and am going by memory here, so hopefully this is a thorough enough explanation for you.

What is the new name of Leningrad?

Stalingrad, an industrial city located on the western bank of the lower Volga River in Russia, earned great fame during World War II as the site of the 1942/43 battle between German and Soviet troops which resulted in a decisive Soviet victory. In 1961, the city was renamed Volgograd, and this name still stands; however, 2013, the decision was made to return the name of the city to "Stalingrad" at honorary occasions during each year, with the possibility of returning to the older name permanently.

They were pushed up from the earth underneath in the ages of the Continental drift. Two masses of land colliding together will make for extra terrain to seep up through the cracks forming mountains

What is a demographic disaster?

A demographic disaster refers to a situation where a population experiences a significant decline in numbers or faces imbalances in age, gender, or other key demographic characteristics that can have negative social, economic, and political consequences.

What effect did world war 1 have on USSR?

It helped bring it into existence. Russia, not the Soviet Union, entered World War I. Russia was technologically not advanced at all, and the czar responded by throwing more men at the war. Finally, he decided to take command himself, but he was just as bad a military leader as civilian one. The people revolted, the czar fled, and the Bolsheviks easily took over the Transitional Government. About five years later, the civil war ended, and the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics was declared.

What is the existentialist concept of human nature?

One of the most fundamental aspects of existentialist philosophy is the notion that "existence precedes essence", which was most notably developed by Sartre. What this means is that no one is born with a specific moral or guiding essence, and that everyone is free to make their own choices instead of being confined by a pre-determined fate. Thus existentialists do not believe that human nature is good or bad, but that everyone is born a blank slate with the ability to make good or bad decisions.

Whom did Karl Marx say would be the ruler in a communist government?

There would be no ruler in a "communist government" to use the terms of this question. This is because under true communism there would be no government at all. It would have withered away and disappeared as being unnecessary. The various industries in the economy would be run by administrators for the benefit of the entire society rather than individual profit. The "proletariat" or working class would not be the rulers, because communism would be a classless society. The terms "proletariat" and "bourgeoisie" refer to social classes and even these would have been wiped out under communism.

Prior to the true communist society and immediately after the overthrow of capitalism, society would go through a period of socialism, which would be ruled by a democratically elected "dictatorship of the proletariat."
The proletariat, that is the workers who own nothing but the right to sell their own labor, would be rulers after the overthrow of the capitalist sytem, but NOT in a communist government.

Did Karl Marx believe in heaven?

No, Marx did not believe in heaven. Marx was a dedicated atheist. Since he did not believe God existed, God's reward for good behavior did not exist.

Marx's famous criticism of religion is that it is "the opium of the people." He felt that God's existence could not be proved scientifically; therefore it was idiocy to believe in religion. Religion, so he believed, was a tool imposed upon the people by the upper class in order to manipulate and control them. The vast majority of people, according to Marx, were uneducated and superstitious. Religion gave them some a basis for a belief that life has some kind of purpose and that one could get to heaven by being well behaved. The common person could not see through the logic that religion was false, because religion was administered by charlatans and mystics whom the people trusted without question.

Since the existence of God could not be proven scientifically, he did not believe God existed. Since God did not exist, heaven, as God's reward for good behavior, did not exist either.
