Friedrich Nietzsche noble human beings the best approach on human nature. Nietzsche fundamental idea is the driving force of human action; the will to power. It is the inherent will to power within humans that affirms human life and the will to live, dominate, and grow. Humans operate on the general principle of growing, domination throughout life. However, human do not live, grow and dominate at equal levels. There are inherent differences in the human society. The noble human being, therefore, is the one who advances the will to power. He who is noble honors himself as one who ...

One of the most common sports-related knee injuries is medial collateral ligament (MCL), which occurs in almost every contact sport, such as football, hockey, wrestling, and martial arts. Those more at risk are intercollegiate male athletes, who can experience mild MCL sprain that could keep them away from exercising sports for an average of three weeks (DeBerardino, 2014). However, the severity of the injury has a broad spectrum, it is impossible to determine the incidence of MCL injuries, especially since minor MCL injuries are never evaluated by a physician.

Anatomy of the Injury (structures involved)

One of the most commonly injured knee-joint ligamentous structures is the medial ...

Introduction

The purpose of this experiment is to assist one to learn how different equipment in the laboratory is being use when carrying out the experiment. It tests the level of accuracy required when using different apparatus for measuring the volume. For very approximate result of volume, a beaker or conical flask is preferred when measuring volumes of liquids.

Accurate methods of measurement

This is done by the use of burette, conical flask and pipette. These measuring apparatus are discussed below. When a much more accurate measurement is required, always measuring cylinders are preferred Measuring cylinders, which are much more accurate than beakers and conical.

Also volumetric pipettes and volumetric flask the mostly used apparatus used when measuring accurate volume.

PART-1 DILUTIONS

a) the technique of transferring an exact amount of liquid from one container to another a) The process of achieving a precise volume in one container while still being able to thoroughly mix the contents.

While pipetting, one should take care to avoid errors. The reading is taken by positioning the eye in correct point with the lower meniscus. Water is added little at a time to the volumetric flask to enhance proper mixing. Tap water is undesired since it has impurities plus ions, which interferes with the results of the experiment. When the water meniscus is almost fill line a “disposable pipette” ...

Introduction

A pipette is one of the laboratory instruments utilized in the transportation of a measured volume of fluids. Therefore, the general use of a pipette is to transfer a specific volume of a fluid from one container (measuring cylinder) to another. There are several types of pipettes. They include; Volumetric, graduated, automated pipettes, micropipettes and disposable pipettes. But for the sake of the video, we will concentrate of two: Volumetric and graduated pipettes.

These pipettes are used to transport a single specific volume of a fluid, typically between 1 and 100 ml. They are shaped like rolling pins with a huge belly, one blunted end (the ...

Enzymes are sometimes referred to as biochemistry workhorses because they are utilized by many scientists to speed up a number of chemical reactions. Enzymes are proteins that speed up, or in other words catalyze, specific biological and chemical reactions by increasing the rates of reaction by more than a million factors. An example of these enzymes is Pectinase, which is the enzyme that catalyzes pectin breakdown. Pectin is a part of the cell wall of fruits like tomatoes, mangoes, oranges and apples. Pectins are large colloidal molecules and they are responsible for holding or determining the amount of dispersed particles in extracted ...
