The chemical composition of water is based on different dissolved solids. Total dissolved solids are referred to matters in tap water or water bodies that left in a container as residue after evaporation and drying of a water sample. WHO and EPA recommended that it should be below 500 mg/L (Broséus et al., 2009; EPA, 2013).

The cardiovascular system consists of arteries, capillaries veins blood vessels and the heart. The heart delivers nutrients and oxygen to the tissues and caries waste products for elimination from the tissues (Hester & Lusha, 2012).

Face Recognition System

Categorization and Features
Face recognition system is a biometric system-any automatically measurable, robust and distinctive traits that can be used to identify an individual- that operates in two modes; face verification or authentication, and face identification or recognition (Li & Jain, 2011).
