Tennessee (state) - USA History.
The climate of Tennessee is characterized by hot summers, mild winters, and abundant rainfall. C1 Temperature Average July temperatures range from less than 21° C (70° F) in the Blue Ridge region to 27° C (80° F) at Nashville and Memphis. Maximum daytime temperatures insummer often rise above 35° C (95° F) in central and western Tennessee. Daytime temperatures in the mountains rarely rise above 32° C (90° F). Summer nights tendto be warm and muggy in central and western Tennessee, but temperatu...

Metabolism (chemistry) - biology.
nearly perfect balance. Although much remains to be revealed about metabolic processes, biochemists now agree that regulatory, or rate-limiting, enzymes figure largely in the reactionsinvolved ( see Enzyme). Affecting metabolic pathways at the earliest steps, each enzyme molecule has a specific, or active, site that matches, or “fits,” its particular substrate—the compound with which the enzyme forms a product. The precision with which rate-limiting enzymes and substrates join to set off a parti...

Metabolismo - ciencias de la naturaleza.
Tanto los sistemas mecánicos como los orgánicos desprenden también grandes cantidades de energía calorífica y proporciones pequeñas de energía útil. El músculo animalrinde casi una caloría útil por cada cuatro desprendidas en forma de calor. Pero, en los organismos animales el calor no se desperdicia por completo, pues es muy necesario—sobre todo en los animales de sangre caliente— para conservar la temperatura del cuerpo y para inducir las reacciones metabólicas, que a temperaturas más bajas se...

B Natural Regions and Topography The island of Great Britain can be divided into two major natural regions—the highland zone and the lowland zone. The highland zone is an area of high hills andmountains in the north and west. The lowland zone in the south and east consists mostly of rolling plains. The zones are divided by an imaginary line running throughEngland from the River Exe on the southwest coast to the mouth of the River Tees on the northeast coast. The lowland zone has a milder climat...

Colorado - geography.
Although the rivers of Colorado are navigable only by small boats, they are important as a source of irrigation water for use in Colorado and adjoining states. However,the water level of the rivers fluctuates seasonally and from year to year. The level is generally low in winter and high in spring and summer, during the runoff of meltedsnow from the mountains. Colorado has no large lakes of natural origin, but there are numerous small lakes in the mountains. The largest bodies of water in Colora...

B Relationship to the Universe and Nature A more profound difference between European American and Native American perceptions lay in how human beings saw themselves in relationship to the universe andin what they believed their responsibilities were to the natural world and to each other.

Native Americans saw themselves as...

bryophytes.
nombreux rameaux s'isolent les uns des autres et poussent côte à côte, formant des coussins plus ou moins lâches qui s'accroissent progressivement. Certaines espèces émettent des fragments appelés propagules et constitués de quelques cellules ; ils sont dispersés par la pluie, par le vent ou par les frottements. Les bryophytes sont remarquables par leur capacité à se déshydrater et à reprendre vie après de longs mois de mort apparente. Les mousses vivent sur le sol, les troncs d'arbres...

Air Pollution.
Several pollutants attack the ozone layer. Chief among them is the class of chemicals known as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), formerly used as refrigerants (notably in airconditioners), as agents in several manufacturing processes, and as propellants in spray cans. CFC molecules are virtually indestructible until they reach thestratosphere. Here, intense ultraviolet radiation breaks the CFC molecules apart, releasing the chlorine atoms they contain. These chlorine atoms begin reacting withozone, br...

Il y a plus de 10 000 ans, les hommes ont sélectionné certaines espèces et cultivé celles qui leur garantissaient productivité, conservation, et qualité gustative. Cette sélection a notamment abouti à la différence, entre 6 000 et 5 000 ans avant J-C, du blé dur (pour la fabrication des pâtes) et du blé tendre (destiné au pain). C’est en 1676 que le rôle des organes sexuels chez les végétaux est découvert par Millington-Grew. A la fin du 19e...

Prokaryote - biology.
earliest organisms to evolve, an estimated 3.4 billion to 3.5 billion years ago. The environment of the early Earth lacked oxygen, and cyanobacteria probably usedfermentation (a chemical process performed without the presence of oxygen) to produce the energy molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cyanobacteria introduced oxygen into the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis. As the oxygen content in the atmosphere increased over the centuries, bacteria evolved that usedthis oxygen in...
