Pruning arborvitae can be necessary after ice or snow damage or winter burn. Here's info on how to trim branches, how not to and whether to fertilize. Pruning arborvitae can be necessary after ice or snow damage or winter burn.


What Tips Can You Offer on Pruning Arborvitae After Snow Damage?
Do not prune back further than where you see stems with green foliage (unless you can live with not having a branch there at all, in which case you would prune right back to the trunk). Bare arborvitae branches will not sprout new growth. The best time for pruning arborvitae shrubs, generally speaking, is late winter or early spring. If you are using them in a hedge, you will perhaps want to shear them in late spring or early summer, as well (keep the top of the hedge narrower than the bottom, so that the lower branches receive sufficient sunlight).

TOPIC 7: Sediment Transport
What are erosion and transport of sediments from the site of weathering caused by? One or more of the following; gravity, wind, water, or ice. What is mass wasting?


Sediment
Sediments are most often transported by water (fluvial processes), but also wind (aeolian processes) and glaciers. Beach sands and river channel deposits are examples of fluvial transport and deposition, though sediment also often settles out of slow-moving or standing water in lakes and oceans. Desert sand dunes and loess are examples of aeolian transport and deposition. Glacial moraine deposits and till are ice-transported sediments.


How Glaciers Erode And Transport Sediment
In fact basal ice may consist of only one part ice to every nine of sediment. The reason that the surfaces often seem so well coated in moraine are two fold. Firstly, the surface is the obvious place for debris from the valley walls to accumulate, and secondly, the surface is subjected to insolation and melting.


-
In that case, sedimentary rocks are derived rocks because they are formed from fragments of pre-existing rocks. Formation of Sedimentary Rocks Sedimentary rocks are the product of 1) weathering of preexisting rocks, 2) transport of the weathering products, 3) deposition of the material, followed by 4) compaction, and 5) cementation of the sediment to form a rock.


Sediment Transport and Deposition
Transported sediment may include mineral matter, chemicals and pollutants, and organic material. Another name for sediment transport is sediment load. The total load includes all particles moving as bedload, suspended load, and wash load 11.


Sediment and Suspended Sediment
Because the amount of sediment a river can transport changes over time, hydrologists take measurements and samples as streamflow goes up and down during a storm. Once we know how much water is flowing and the amount of sediment in the water at different flow conditions, we can compute the tonnage of sediment that moves past the measurement site during a day, during the storm, and even during the whole year.

Breach of Contract: The Notice of Breach
For example, a notice sent to the wrong address or by the wrong method may not count as notice of the breach, which gives the breaching party more time to cure the problem. Describe the breach. The notice must indicate what part of the contract was breached.


Cure Notice
It's stupid to issue a cure notice after a contract has expired. Issuing one against a contract that has not been awarded is incredibly stupid. Any CO who does something like that should be stripped of their warrant.

Breach of Contract: The Notice of Breach
One important function of the notice is to create a record of the date when the breaching party is officially told of the breach. That date may be important if the dispute ends up in court. Before sending the notice, the non-breaching party should confirm that the notice is going to the right person, via the proper method. Check the notice clause.

If so, the notice serves to terminate (cancel) the agreement and to seek damages. Much of the time, though, a breach of contract notice seeks to resolve contractual problems while keeping the agreement in effect. For that reason, the letter often provides a period of time during which the breaching party can fix (cure) the breach.

Farrowing House Design. 1  Safety for the stockperson. 2  Ease of management for such procedures as clipping teeth and tailing, examining the piglets and the sows udder. 3  Treating the piglets or the sow, feeding, changing creep feed and general hygiene. 4  Provision of a simple safe creep close to the sow for the piglets.


-
Tips on preparing and organising the farrowing room from BPEX in the Work Instruction series (No. 3). Providing the correct environment for both sows and piglets in the farrowing house will help to minimise mortality and maximise growth rate of the piglets and maintain the sow in good condition for the next cycle.


-
Farrowing crate and pen design are important in the management of the sow and litter. Pig producers are nothing if not resourceful and ingenious and it is not surprising that over the 25 to 30 years of the development of the modern industry a variety of pen and crate designs have been developed, some good, some not so good, none perfect.


-
Outline of the Work. 1  Move all required equipment into farrowing room. 2  Replace all equipment in the correct place. 3  Check creep lamps and heat mats are working. 4  Move sow into crate and adjust crate to correct size for individual animal. 5  Ideally, the sow/gilt should be put in the crate at least three days prior to farrowing. Place the history of each sow above/near the relevant farrowing crate. Move bedding from storage area to farrowing room. Check that the medicines store has adequate store of relevant drugs.

Key features of a good farrowing house: 1  The design should enable an all-in all-out management system to be operated with complete cleaning, disinfection and drying of pens between groups. This prevents the build up of infection and reduces the exposure to viruses, bacteria and parasites.


-
Initial Checks. 1  Ensure pressure washing, disinfection and drying of the entire room have taken place. 2  Ensure pressure washing, disinfection and drying of all extra equipment such as scrapers and creep feeders have taken place.


-
Place the history of each sow above/near the relevant farrowing crate; Move bedding from storage area to farrowing room; Check that the medicines store has adequate store of relevant drugs; Check availability of liquid colostrum, supplementary milk etc; Remove faeces from the crate at least once a day; When the sow or gilt shows signs of starting to nest or farrow: 1  Place enough bedding around the back of the sow to eliminate draughts and provide a comfortable, dry area for newborn piglets. 2  Place a heat source towards the back and or side of each sow.


-
To achieve an efficient all-in all-out system the farrowing houses should be of a size appropriate to the number of the sows in the herd and the number of farrowings planned for each week. Thus, ideally, in a family farm of 300-500 sows farrowing houses should contain about 10 crates and in smaller herds about 6. In large herds of 1000 or more sows it is useful to have farrowing houses of two or more different sizes, say, 10 to 12 crates and 20 to 24 crates.

How to Fertilize New Fruit Trees
When fertilizing new fruit trees, you will need: 1  Young fruit trees â trees that are newly planted, or trees that have been in the ground for up to 2 years. 2  A fertilizer of your choice, like StarkÂ® Tre-PepÂ® Fertilizer, or a soil amendment like compost, well-aged manure, etc.


How to Fertilize New Fruit Trees
The best time to fertilize new fruit trees is in spring, starting after bud-break and finishing by July. This provides nutrients when trees need them most. One of the most important things you can do for new fruit trees is help them to become established in their environment. Once established, fruit trees are practically self-reliant!


What, When and Why: The Best Way to Fertilize Trees
Water it during dry spells. Mulch in the spring. And, fertilize, or feed, your tree when it lacks nutrients. When you fertilize your trees, you replace necessary minerals and nutrients that are missing from the soil. Does my tree need to be fertilized?


Tree fertilization: A guide for fertilizing new and established trees in the landscape
The most beneficial time to apply fertilizer is from when the ground is workable in the spring until just before trees start growing in early May. On sandy soils, applications should be split, half in early spring and half in mid- to late May.


Schedule for Fertilizing Lawns
Likewise, when applying fertilizers, follow directions to the letter. These directions will tell you how much to apply, how often they should be applied, and under what conditions they should be applied. The job is best done with a fertilizer spreader, such as a drop spreader. Be advised not to fill the applicator with the spreader parked on the grass.


When to Apply Spring Lawn Fertilizer
After Fertilizing. It's best to coincide any fertilizer application with a rainfall or watering of at least 1/4 to water in the product. Remember that a lawn fertilized with a slow-release fertilizer will not need to be fertilized for up to 12 weeks, and maybe longer.


Do Lawn Fertilizers Hold The Secrets To Green Grass?
Grass has a primary need for nitrogen. Other plants are much more complex and have greater demands. Rather than use all-purpose you might save money on a just-for-grass fertilizer. Base your selection on these Tips for buying Lawn Fertilizers. (page off line- being revised at this time-until then, see the page linked above for Fertilizer Numbers, which addresses this topic.) When And How Often Do You Fertilize? Common expectation prompts homeowners to fertilize in spring.


When should I fertilize my lawn during spring?
One other âsmartâ task for the lawn in early spring is to lightly rake the grass where the snow was piled for much of the winter along your driveway and sidewalk. It is common for snow mold fungi to grow on grass blades under insolated snow piles. The picture of snow mold was taken March 15, 2015 in Saginaw, Michigan.

Interesting Facts about Potassium. 1  Potassium chloride (KCl) is sometimes used as a substitute for table salt. 2  The USDA recommends that adults consume 4.7 grams of potassium each day. 3  A small amount of potassium can taste sweet. 4  Potassium bicarbonate is the chemical name for baking soda.


TUNGSTEN
For this work, they are generally given credit as the discoverers of tungsten. The name tungsten is taken from the Swedish phrase that means heavy stone. In some parts of the world, the element is still called by another name, wolfram. This name comes from the German expression Wolf rahm, or wolf froth (foam).


TUNGSTEN
These metals have very similar physical and chemical properties. One of tungsten's unusual properties is its very high melting point of 3,410Â°C (6,170Â°F). This is the highest melting point of any metal. Another of its important properties is its ability to retain its strength at very high temperatures.


TUNGSTEN
Tungsten is a hard brittle solid whose color ranges from steel-gray to nearly white. Its melting point is the highest of any metal, 3,410Â°C (6,170Â°F) and its boiling point is about 5,900Â°C (10,600Â°F). Its density is about 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter. Tungsten conducts electrical current very well.


Molybdenum history
Molybdenum history. In ancient times a number of substances were collectively known by the Greek word âmolybdos,â meaning lead-like. Molybdenite (MoS2), the most abundant molybdenum-containing mineral, was in this class along with lead, galena, graphite and others.


Elements for Kids
Where did potassium get its name? Potassium gets its name from the salt potash from which potassium was first isolated. The K symbol for the element comes from the Latin word kalium, which means potash. Isotopes There are three isotopes of potassium that occur naturally: K-39, 40, and 41. The majority (93%) of potassium found in nature is K-39.


Molybdenum history
This change brought weight benefits, since the atomic weight of tungsten is nearly twice that of molybdenum. In 1891, the French company Schneider & Co. first used molybdenum as an alloying element in armour plate steel.


Elements for Kids
Potassium is the fourth element in the first column of the periodic table. It is classified as an alkali metal. Potassium atoms have 19 electrons and 19 protons with one valence electron in the outer shell. Potassium is considered chemically similar to sodium, the alkali metal above it on the periodic table.


TUNGSTEN
Tungsten's chemical symbol, W, is taken from an alternative name for the element, wolfram. Discovery and naming The first mention of tungsten and its compounds can be traced to about 1761. German chemist Johann Gottlob Lehmann (1719-67) was studying a mineral known as wolframite. He found two new substances in the mineral but did not recognize that they were new elements. About twenty years later, Scheele also studied this mineral.

Judicial Activism and its Critics
Professor Richard W. Garnett, of Notre Dame, is willing to go along with âmuch, though not all, ofâ Rooseveltâs position. Ultimately, Garnett suggests âthat âjudicial activismâ might be salvaged, and used as a way of identfying and criticizing decisions . . . that fail to demonstrate th[e] virtueâ of constitutional âhumility.â

What weâre talking about when we talk about âjudicial activismâ
We also have to recognize that judicial activism is real. And here is where political science comes in, because it provides a definition of judicial activism that has nothing to do with whether one likes or agrees with a given judicial decision.


Judicial Activism and its Critics
The negative argument of the book is that âjudicial activism,â as the phrase is typically used, is essentially empty of content; it is simply an inflammatory way of registering disapproval of a decision. It is supposed to indicate that a judge has decided a case based on personal policy preferences rather than law.


Business Law - Chapter 3
Judicial restraint asks judges to base their judicial decisions solely on the concept of stare decisis. Define stare decisis The doctrine that traditionally indicates that a court should follow prior decisions in all cases based on substantially similar facts.


Political Science Review
It asserts that judges should hesitate to strike down laws unless they are obviously unconstitutional, though what counts as obviously unconstitutional is itself a matter of some debate. Detractors of judicial activism argue that it usurps the power of elected branches of government or appointed agencies, damaging the rule of law and democracy. Defenders say that in many cases it is a legitimate form of judicial review and that interpretations of the law must change with the times.


Judicial Activism Pros and Cons
In some ways, every judicial case has a foundation of activism within it. Therefore the pros and cons of judicial activism must always be weighed to determine if the right course of action is being pursued. What Are the Pros of Judicial Activism? 1. It provides a system of checks and balances to the other branches of government.

How to Transplant Peonies
When planting peonies, dig a hole large enough for the entire root system. Place the peony plant in the hole so the buds are 1 to 2 inches below the soil surface. (Peonies often fail to bloom satisfactorily if the buds are more than 2 inches deep.)


Peony PlantingOctober 18, 2014
Peony Planting. October 18, 2014. For me, one of the peonyâs biggest attractions is its long life. Iâve heard of herbaceous peonies blooming reliably for more than 50 years, sometimes outliving the gardeners who planted them! But the key to their longevity is the care you take in establishing them.


Planting Peonies
Plant peonies at least 2 feet (60 cm) apart â some would say that 3 or 4 feet (100 - 120 cm) is even better. Similarly, plant them at least that distance away from a wall or fence. Peonies need lots of room to grow: a mature peony plant can have a diameter of 3 feet (1 metre), or more. When to Plant The best time to plant peonies is very late summer or early fall. This is particularly true of root stock (or peony divisions, as they are sometimes called). Peony plants which have been grown in a pot can be planted at other times of the year, such as late spring or early summer.

The depth at which you plant these pieces of root stock is very important. The growing buds (called eyes or crown buds) should be no more than two inches (5 cm) below the surface of the soil. If peonies are planted too deep, they may not flower for several years (or, in some cases, may hardly flower at all). Planting Potted Peonies


How to Transplant Peonies
Transplanted peonies will not bloom well the first spring. In fact, it's advisable to remove any flower buds that form the first year to maximize plant growth. Transplanted peonies should bloom well by the third or fourth year. This article originally appeared in the August 27, 1999 issue, p. 116.


Peony PlantingOctober 18, 2014
Choose an area that is in full sun with well-drained, slightly acidic soil. And bear in mind that peonies do not respond well to transplanting once they have become established, so select an area where they can remain undisturbed. Planting Peonies. Peonies should be planted with the eyes pointing up and just beneath the surface of the soil. Now here is an important fact to keep in mind. Peonies that are planted too deep will not bloom. In northern gardens plant the tubers no deeper than 2 inches. In my mid-South garden I plant them about a half-inch deep.


Planting Peonies
Planting your peonies in full sun generally means that they will bloom somewhat earlier (than the same peonies planted in part shade). However, they will probably also need to be watered more often, and the colours of the blossoms will fade more quickly.


Planting Peonies
I've divided this into 3 sections: 1  Where to Plant: decide on the best location for your peonies. 2  When to Plant: when your new peonies should go into the ground. 3  How to Plant: best way to plant your new peonies.


How to Transplant Peonies
Peonies can be left undisturbed in the garden for many years. Occasionally, however, it becomes necessary to move established plants. Peonies shaded by large trees or shrubs bloom poorly and should be moved to a sunny site. The redesign of a perennial bed or border may require moving the peonies. Large, old plants may become overcrowded and flower poorly. Large, poorly blooming peonies should be dug, divided, and transplanted to improve performance. Moving established plants is a simple procedure. Cut the peony stems near ground level in September.

-
Trough serum vancomycin concentrations are the most accurate and practical method for monitoring efficacy. Troughs should be obtained just prior to the next dose at steady-state conditions (just before the fourth dose). Minimum serum vancomycin trough concentrations should always be maintained above 10 mg/L to avoid development of resistance. For a pathogen with an MIC of 1 mg/L, the minimum trough concentration would have to be at least 15 mg/L to generate the target AUC:MIC of 400. Vancomycin serum trough concentrations of 15â20 mg/L are recommended to improve penetration, increase the probability of obtaining optimal target serum concentrations, and improve clinical outcomes.

Spay/Neuter Your Pet
Itâs possible to spay a female cat while sheâs in heat. Talk to your veterinarian to determine the best time to spay or neuter your pet. Helping Your Pet Before and After Surgery. Your veterinary clinic will provide pre-surgical advice that you should follow. In general, avoid giving your cat any food after midnight the night before surgery.


When to Neuter and Spay: Pets can become capable of reproduction as early as 6 months of age, so it is important to spay and neuter pets by that age. Not only is there no evidence to support the old wives' tale about benefits of letting pets go through a heat cycle or have a litter, there is a preponderance of evidence that it is healthier for pets to be spayed or neutered before the first heat cycle (estrus) and sexual maturity. Sterilization can safely be done before then, as endorsed by the AVMA and other major animal health and welfare organizations. Research from the AVMA and other sources indicates that younger animals heal faster and are lower surgical risks. However, older animals can typically be spayed and neutered safely as well. Early-Age Neuter/Spay Early spay/neuter starting at 8 weeks of is endorsed by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), Humane Society of the United States, the American Kennel Club, the Cat Fanciers Association, the American Humane Association and many other organizations. As long as a pup or kitten weighs more than two pounds and is 8 weeks old, he or she can be neutered or spayed. Many veterinarians practice safe early sterilization. Some of the many benefits of early sterilization: faster healing and recovery time, and the earlier a pet is spayed or neutered, the less chance of developing a number of serious diseases and disorders. For example, a female spayed before her first heat (six to nine months of age) has one-seventh the risk of developing mammary cancer as does an intact female. In the 1970s, the veterinary medical and other animal protection communities began questioning the standard age minimum of six months for surgical neutering of dogs and cats. Altering pets between 6 and 7 months was based more on tradition than on medical reasons. Among reasons to revisit the minimum age: many young animals were being adopted out of shelters without being neutered at the time of adoption. Unfortunately, some adopters failed to abide by their adoption contracts that called for them to have the adopted pets neutered, resulting in more litters of unwanted animals. Some veterinarians began practicing early-age sterilization in the 1970s when safe pediatric anesthetic techniques became available. With the advent of early-age procedures, shelters were able to have young animals neutered before or at adoption. There has been no evidence of increased risks to cats or dogs sterilized as early as eight weeks of age. An increasing number of shelters and animal rescue groups have adopted the practice of early-age neuter/spay, enabling them to make sure all of their adopted animals are sterilized.
Spaying/neutering your pets is also highly cost-effective. The cost of your pet's spay/neuter surgery is far less than the cost of having and caring for a litter. Debunking Spay/Neuter Myths and Misconceptions

Also in 1953, Crick and an American scientist named James Watson made what was probably the biggest discovery of their careers, which was the structure of the DNA molecule. This effort led both men (along with Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin) to the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962.


The Discovery of the  Molecular Structure of DNA - The Double Helix
In early 1953 he had published a paper where he proposed a triple-helical structure for DNA. Watson and Crick had also previously worked out a three-helical model, in 1951. But their theory was wrong.

Less commonly, swelling during pregnancy results from a disorder (see Table: Some Causes and Features of Swelling During Late Pregnancy). However, such disorders are often serious. In deep vein thrombosis, blood clots form in veins located deep within part of the body, often in the legs.


-
The swelling that occurs normally during pregnancy can be reduced by doing the following: 1  Lying on the left side, which moves the uterus off the large vein that returns blood to the heart (inferior vena cava) 2  Resting frequently with the legs elevated. 3  Wearing elastic support stockings.


Upper Abdominal Pain When Pregnant: Causes and Remedies
1. Common Causes. It is not necessary that pain felt during pregnancy is always an indication of a serious pathology. Sometimes pain is an indication of normal pregnancy. For instance, as the course of pregnancy proceeds, the uterus continues to stretch, often resulting in abdominal pain.


Swelling During Late Pregnancy
Occasionally, the face and hands also swell. Some fluid accumulation during pregnancy is normal, particularly during the 3rd trimester. It is called physiologic edema. Fluid accumulates during pregnancy because the adrenal glands produce more of the hormones that make the body retain fluids (aldosterone and cortisol).

-
Pregnancy increases the risk of this disorder in several ways. During pregnancy, the body produces more of the proteins that help blood clot (clotting factors), probably intended to prevent too much bleeding during childbirth. Also, changes during pregnancy cause blood to back up in veins, making clots more likely to form. If the pregnant woman is less mobile, blood is even more likely to back up in leg veins and clot. The clots may interfere with blood flow.


Mouth Sores and Inflammation
Doctors first ask questions about the swelling and other symptoms and about the medical history. Doctors then do a physical examination. What they find during the history and physical examination often suggests a cause of the swelling and the tests that may need to be done (see Table: Some Causes and Features of Swelling During Late Pregnancy).


-
In pregnant women with swollen legs, the following symptoms are cause for concern: 1  Blood pressure that is 140/90 mm Hg or higher. 2  Swelling in only one leg or calf, particularly if the area is warm, red, and/or tender or fever is present. 3  Swelling in the hands. 4  Swelling that suddenly increases.


Swelling During Late Pregnancy
Key Points. 1  Some swelling in the legs and ankles is normal (physiologic) during pregnancy and occurs during the 3rd trimester. 2  Doctors can identify serious causes of swelling based on results of a physical examination, blood pressure measurement, urine tests, and sometimes ultrasonography.


What are the best foods to eat if I have a stomach ulcer?
The symptoms can be made worse by your stomach acid. It is not entirely clear why ulcers start but stress and diet, especially a fatty diet, are big contributing factors. A higher intake of fat can greatly increase your chance of getting an ulcer in the first place and cause other gastrointestinal problems. High salt intake is also implicated.


Stomach Ulcer Diet: Foods to Eat and Avoid
Acidic drinks: Coffee, carbonated beverages, and citrus juices are all acidic and can aggravate a stomach ulcer. Since itâs the acidity that causes the problem it wonât matter whether you use caffeinated versions of the drink or not, either. A stomach ulcer diet should stick to non-acidic drinks or plain water.


What are the best foods to eat if I have a stomach ulcer?
They help to reduce the risk of ulcers by producing compounds called prostaglandins, that help to protect the lining of the stomach and intestines (Mori et al, 2006). Omega oils contain EPA and DHA which are the active compounds in this case, so if you are not eating a lot of fish take a krill oil, cod liver oil or seed oil supplement that is high in EPA and DFA.

Some peptic ulcers heal on their own. But if you donât treat them, the ulcers tend to come back. They can erode the blood vessel wall in your stomach or small intestine. The ulcers also can eat a hole through the lining and get infected. Or they can cause swelling, which may block food from moving from your stomach into your small intestine. If H. pylori is the culprit, your doctor may prescribe a mix of antibiotics to kill it.

The next day, my primary care doctor told me I probably had an ulcer, a raw spot or sore in the lining of the stomach or small intestine. Here are some of the things I learned about ulcers during the odyssey that followed. â  Anyone can get an ulcer.


Diet For Stomach Ulcers And Gastritis
Eat a variety of healthy foods from all the food groups. Eat fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fat-free or low-fat dairy foods. Whole grains include whole-wheat breads, cereals, pasta, and brown rice. Choose lean meats, poultry (chicken and turkey), fish, beans, eggs, and nuts. A healthy meal plan is low in unhealthy fats, salt, and added sugar.


What to Eat & Not to Eat When You Have an Ulcer
No specific ulcer diet exists, but eating certain types of foods can contribute to an increase in stomach acid and irritate the ulcer while others can promote a healthy digestive system. Video of the Day

Polar Bear Facts
Polar bears are also the largest species of bear. For bears, height is usually measured at the shoulder when the animal is on all fours, according to Polar Bear International. On average, polar bears on all fours are 3.5 to 5 feet (1 to 1.5 meters) tall, but when standing on its hind legs, an adult male polar bear may reach more than 10 feet (3 m). Lengthwise, they are 7.25 to 8 feet (2.2 to 2.5 m) from head to rump. Their tail adds another 3 to 5 inches (7.5 to 12.5 centimeters).


Polar Bear Facts
Polar bears are excellent swimmers; their scientific name, Ursus maritimus, means sea bear, according to the San Diego Zoo. They use their big front feet to paddle and their back legs as rudders. These bears have been known to swim more than 60 miles (100 km) without rest. [Images: Swimming Polar Bears] Habits. Polar bears are solitary.


Why do polar bears have white fur? And nine other polar bear facts
Polar bears have white fur so that they can camouflage into their environment. Their coat is so well camouflaged in Arctic environments that it can sometimes pass as a snow drift. Interestingly, the polar bearâs coat has no white pigment; in fact, a polar bearâs skin is black and its hairs are hollow. They have a thick layer of body fat, which keeps them warm while swimming, and a double-layered coat that insulates them from the cold Arctic air.


Why do polar bears have white fur? And nine other polar bear facts
5. Why do polar bears like to keep clean? Polar bears like to keep clean because it helps the insulating properties of their fur. Fur that is dirty, matted, and wet does not work as well as an insulator. After feeding, polar bears will usually wash themselves by taking a swim or rolling in the snow.


Polar Bear Facts
Unlike other bears, polar bears do not hibernate in the winter, according to the San Diego Zoo. They continue to hunt, unless the weather is extremely cold. Then they may seek shelter in a snow den. Diet. The polar bear's primary food source is seals. Their diet of meat makes them carnivores.

polar bears are considered to be marine mammals. A polar bear's front paws propel them through the water dog-paddle style. The hind feet and legs are held flat and are used as rudders. A thick layer of fat, up to 11 cm (4.3 in.) thick, keeps the polar bear warm while swimming in cold water. Polar bears can obtain a swimming speed of 10 kph (6.2 mph). A polar bear's nostrils close when under water.

Polar bears are considered talented swimmers and can sustain a pace of six miles per hour by paddling with their front paws and holding their hind legs flat like a rudder. Their paws are slightly webbed to help them swim. Polar bears are actually classified as marine mammals because they spend most of their lives on the sea ice of the Arctic Ocean.

7. Where do polar bears live? Polar bears live in the Arctic, on ice-covered waters. Polar bears rely on sea ice to access the seals that are their primary source of food, as well as to rest and breed. The total polar bear population is divided into 19 units or subpopulations. Sixty percent of the sub-populations are in Canada. There are 22,000-31,000 polar bears in the wild.

A Brief History of the Airship From glorified balloons to military vehicles, we look up at the flighty past of dirigibles.


Airship
In the 1980s, Per Lindstrand and his team introduced the GA-42 airship, the first airship to use fly-by-wire flight control which considerably reduced the pilot's workload. The world's largest thermal airship (300,000 cubic feet; 8,500 cubic metres) was constructed by the Per Lindstrand company for French botanists in 1993.


The First Powered Airship | The Greatest Moments in Flight
He built the first full-size airship â a cigar-shaped, non-rigid bag that was 143 feet (44 meters) long and had a capacity of 113,000 cubic feet (3,200 cubic meters). He also built a small 3-horsepower (2.2-kilowatt) steam engine to power a three-bladed propeller.


History of Airships and Balloons
The airship by Dupuy de LÃ´me (1816 - 1885, French engineer and politician). There are two kinds of floating lighter-than-air or LTA craft: the balloon and the airship. A balloon is an unpowered LTA craft that can lift. An airship is a powered LTA craft that can lift and then maneuver in any direction against the wind.

4 K-class : K-2, K-3, K-4 and K-5 designed as a patrol ships built from 1938. 1  3 L-class : L-1, L-2 and L-3 as small training ships, produced from 1938. 2  1 G-class built in 1936 for training. 3  2 TC-class that were older patrol ships designed for land forces, build in 1933. The US Navy acquired them from Army in 1938.


The Hindenburg
The control car was secured to the underside of the Hindenburg's body, which broke up the streamline effect of the remainder of the airship, and comprised three main compartments: control room/bridge, navigation room and observation area.


Airships -- Blimps
An airship training base was created there as well. In the years 1942-1944, approximately 1400 airship pilots and 3000 support crew members were trained in the military airship crew training program and the airship military personnel grew from 430 to 12400. The US airships were produced by the Goodyear factory in Akron, Ohio.

Medical Definition of Diastolic
In a blood pressure reading, the diastolic pressure is typically the second number recorded. For example, with a blood pressure of 120/80 (120 over 80), the diastolic pressure is 80. By 80 is meant 80 mm Hg (millimeters of mercury). A diastolic murmur is a heart murmur heard during diastole, the time the heart relaxes. Diastolic came from the Greek diastole meaning a drawing apart. The term has been in use since the 16th century to denote the period of relaxation of the heart muscle.


Blood Pressure Reading
Blood pressure readings are measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and are provided as a pair of numbers. For example, 110 over 70 (written as 110/70) systolic/diastolic. The lower number is the diastolic blood pressure reading. It represents the minimum pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest. The higher number is the systolic blood pressure reading.


Atria & Ventricular Systole and Diastole
Atria and ventricles relax during diastole. Elastic recoil lowers pressure in the atria and ventricles. Blood under higher pressure in the arteries is drawn back towards the ventricles, closing the semi-lunar valves and preventing further backflow. The coronary arteries fill during diastole. Low pressure in the atria helps draw blood into the heart from the veins.


Diastole
â¦as diastole and contraction as systole. As one chamber undergoes systole the other undergoes diastole, thus forcing the blood forward. The series of events during which blood is passed through the heart is known as the cardiac cycle.


Diastole
That is, for a typical heart rate of 75 beats per minute (bpm), the cycle requires 0.3 sec in ventricular systole (contraction)âpumping blood to all body systems from the two ventricles; and 0.5 sec in diastole (dilation), re-filling the four chambers of the heart, for a total time of 0.8 sec to complete the entire cycle.


Diastole
Diastole /daÉªËÃ¦stÉliË/ is that part of the cardiac cycle during which the heart refills with blood after the emptying done during systole. Ventricular diastole is the period during which the two ventricles are relaxing from the contortions of contraction, then dilating and filling; atrial diastole is the period during which the two atria likewise are relaxing, dilating, and filling. The term diastole originates from the Greek word Î´Î¹Î±ÏÏÎ¿Î»Î·, meaning dilation.


Diastole
Ventricular diastole is the time when the two lower chambers of the heart called the ventricles are relaxing to let the blood to flow in. Atrial diastole is the time when the two upper chambers of the heart called the atria are relaxing to allow the blood to flow in. During ventricular diastole, the pressure in the (left and right) ventricles drops.


Diastole
Diastolic pressure. Because the heart relaxes during diastole, diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure within the arterial blood stream during each heart beat. The highest arterial pressure happens when the heart muscle contracts, and is called systolic pressure.


Understanding Autoimmunity
There are more than 80 different types of autoimmune diseases, but some of the most common ones are: 1  Graves' disease. Gravesâ disease is a type of autoimmunity in which the thyroid gland becomes overly active. 2  Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

What If the Immune System Attacks Itself? Answers 1. True 2. c 3. False 4. Drugs; students should underline the fourth sentence in paragraph 7. 5. Finding a cure or preventing autoimmune diseases in the first place Learn more about autoimmune disease at www.aarda.org.


Autoimmune Diseases: When the Body Starts Attacking Itself
Autoimmune diseases affect the immune system, the bodyâs natural defenses for fighting disease. The immune system normally protects the body against foreign materials, such as viruses and bacteria. Autoimmune diseases result from a failure of the bodyâs own defenses against disease. The immune system loses its ability to tell the difference between foreign materials and its own cells. So the body starts attacking its own organs and tissues. There are three kinds of lupus. Discoid lupus affects only the skin and can be identified by red marks on the face or neck.


Autoimmune Addison's disease: when the immune system destroys our ability to cope with stress
Besides antibodies, the immune system can attack by arming immune cells and licensing them to kill cells, as in the case of cancer cells or cells infected with a virus. But when the wrong licence is given, these cells, known as T cells, can attack your own tissue.


Test Bank Of Essentials of Anatomy And Physiology 7th Edition by Martini Bartholomew
When the immune system doesnât work right, it can cause diseases in almost any part of the body. It can affect parts we can see, like the skin, and parts we canât see, like the heart and nerves. There are two types of autoimmune diseases: organ-specific and non-organ-specific. Organ-specific diseases slowly destroy a certain type


Autoimmune Disorders: When Your Body Turns On You
âAutoâ mean self; so, âautoimmunityâ basically means your immune system takes aim at itself. More than 23 million Americans suffer from autoimmunity, which makes it the third most common category of illness in the United States after cancer and heart disease.


-
Drugs are also used to calm the immune systemâbut not too much! The body still needs to defend itself against disease. Other drugs are used to ease pain and swelling from rheumatoid arthritis. If the autoimmune disease affects the blood, transfusions may be given. Stem cell therapy and bone marrow transplants are experimental treatments.


Autoimmune Diseases
Autoimmune diseases refer to problems with the immune system, which usually fight off viruses, bacteria and infection. The problem causes your immune cells to attack your body by mistake. These diseases can affect almost any part of the body. In most cases, your doctor will prescribe medications to reduce redness, pain, and swelling.


Understanding Autoimmunity
There are more than 80 different types of autoimmune diseases, but some of the most common ones are: 1  Graves' disease. 2  Hashimoto's thyroiditis. 3  Systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus). 4  Type 1 diabetes. 5  Multiple sclerosis (MS). 6  Rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is a type of arthritis in which autoimmunity causes the immune system to attack tissues in the joints, leading to muscle pain, joint deformities, fatigue, weakness, appetite loss, weight loss, and sometimes confinement to bed.


Goal 3 - Incomplete and Co-dominance Notes
In other words, Mendel was unaware of the phenomenon of INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE. I remember Incomplete Dominance in the form of an example like so: RED Flower x WHITE Flower ---> PINK Flower With incomplete dominance, a cross between organisms with two different phenotypes produces offspring with a third phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits. It's like mixing paints, red + white will make pink.

Goal 3 - Incomplete and Co-dominance Notes
It's like mixing paints, red + white will make pink. Red doesn't totally block (dominate) the pink, instead there is incomplete dominance, and we end up with something in-between. We can still use the Punnett Square to solve problems involving incomplete dominance.


-
There're many examples of incomplete dominance in plants, animals and human that show a form of genetic relationship when there is no dominant allele in a pair.


Incomplete Dominance vs Codominance: Whatâs the Difference?
Incomplete Dominance. Incomplete dominance is when there is a blending of the two alleles that results in a third phenotype that doesnât look like either of the parents. The classic example is when a white flower and red flower are crossed. With incomplete dominance, all their offspring would be solid pink flowers, a completely new phenotype.


-
So there are different ways for traits to be dominant, recessive, or incompletely dominant. It all depends on what the genes do and what the difference in the allele does to the gene. Codominant Traits


-
In both codominance and incomplete dominance, both alleles for a trait are dominant. In codominance a heterozygous individual expresses both simultaneously without any blending. An example of codominance is the roan cow which has both red hairs and white hairs. In incomplete dominance a heterozygous individual blends the two traits. An example of incomplete dominance is the pink snapdragon, which receives a red allele and white allele. codominance incomplete dominance
