    The Hinton Rail collision of 1986 is one of Canada’s worst rail disasters, occurring just on the outskirts of the Rocky Mountains in Alberta. This mass disaster was the result of a head-on high speed collision of a VIA rail Super Continental passenger train and a Canadian National freight train, leaving behind the remanence of torn apart passenger cars, shattered glass, burning chemical fumes and piles of scattered debris (Ferllini, 2012, p.170). Such a scene required the assistance of forensic anthropologists

  • Colored Light Absorption Lab Report

    Grishma Patel Chloroplast Pigments and Colored Light Absorption Summary The purpose of executing this lab was to see how different wavelengths and colors of light are absorbed by chloroplast pigments. The goal was to see the variations of light dependant reactions of photosynthesis based on different types of light. Spinach was used by grinding it with acetone and acquire the thylakoids used in the experiment. DCIP was used in this experiment as the oxidizing agent that will turn blue to clear when

  • Blow Out Trauma Essay

    661 Words  | 3 Pages

    Trauma to the face caused by assault or impact from solid objects, often causes internal orbita fractures. In 1957, Smith and Regan described the term “orbital blow-out fracture” from their observation that blunt eyeball trauma due to a tennis ball or a fist increased intraorbital pressure without disruption of soft tissue integrity or causing a fracture line in orbital rims but could cause orbital floor fractures (1). Such fractures have been categorized as “pure blow-out fractures” in which only

  • Fibroblast Research Paper

    2301 Words  | 10 Pages

    Fibroblast The fibroblast is the large cell type of the dermis. These cells are responcible for the formation of procollagen and elastic fibers. Procollagen is terminally cleaved by proteolytic enzymes into collagen which aggregates and turned into cross-linked. These tightly cross-linked collagen fibers allow tensile strength and resistance to shear and other mechanical forces.(9,10) Collagen makes up 70% of the weight of the dermis, primarily Type I (85% of the total collagen) and Type III (15%

  • Benefits Of Biodiesel

    CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION The recent years have roused concerns about global warming and climatic change, instability of oil supply, increasing price of crude oil and regulations putting constraints on the use of nonrenewable energy sources. These problems have attracted the focus towards production of chemicals and fuels from renewable resources, which can be used to produce biofuels. This development can promote the local employment opportunities and reduce the CO2 emissions.(Visioli, Enzweiler
