Biological Diffusion Processes, Allen R. Killpatrick, Norman J. Chonacky

Physical Science Modules for Bioscience Students

What happens in the lung is that air meets blood. Figure 1 shows the lung's architecture. Focus your attention upon the smallest scale structures which are the termini of the air passages. These are the alveolar air sacs or, simply, alveoli. The inhalation/exhalation actions of the lung, alternately, flood these alveoli with atmospheric air and expel its oxygen-poor/carbon dioxide-rich replacement. Figure (2a) depicts, in a somewhat simplified manner, these alveoli with their appended venous blood suppliers, the pulmonary arteries. Figure {2b} shows the structure of the blood distribution system over a small, typical portion of the alveolar surface in much …

Fundamental Energy Processes Of The Human Body, Thomas C. Campbell, Norman J. Chonacky

Physical Science Modules for Bioscience Students

Within the hand that holds this sheet of paper there throb thousands of engines; each with its own fuel requirements; each yielding varying amounts of work, heat, and waste output. Each is a cell in your body.

Of course, these cells are not completely independent. They share in a society, but especially in an economy, of the whole organism. This economy does not trade dollars of differing currencies; rather, its commerce is in energy of differing forms.

A particularly important asset is thermal energy. It is the natural by-product of the various energy conversion processes, the biochemical reactions within the …

Thermal Regulation Of The Human Body, Thomas C. Campbell, Norman J. Chonacky

Physical Science Modules for Bioscience Students

The supervision of the complicated task of managing your body's energy resources is laid to many ingenious systems, both chemical and physical, in your body. One group of such control systems keeps the temperature of the body relatively stable despite a wide range of variety and intensity of the energy conversion and utilization processes which occur there.

For example, increase in thermal stimulation of body temperature sensors may result in secretion of water by the sweat glands which in turn cools the skin surface and increases the heat outflow. In another scenario, thermal stimulation can initiate stricturing of certain blood …

Measurement And Comparison Of The Competency: Commitment To The Professions Of Home Economics And Education Among Sophomore And Senior Vocational Home Economics Students, Helen Brown Burris

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

This exploratory study was conducted as a part of a national project to provide valid and reliable means of assessment for Home Economics Competency Based Education Programs. It was initiated from an interest in developing an instrument to assess the attainment of the specified suggested competency that the participant will demonstrate a commitment to the professions of home economics and education. Development of the Measure of CHEE {Commitment to Home Economics and Education) accomplished the objective of identifying the criteria for commitment and the construction of an instrument which would be a valid and reliable measure of presence of commitment. …

The Need For Nitrogen, Ralph Hardy

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Exacting a toll of death and suffering, the world's food supply trails population growth. To help bridge this gap, scientists are probing a uniquely-talented group of bacteria. This is Stuart Finley for Men and Molecules, presented by the American Chemical Society. Today, a report on the progress and promise of nitrogen fixation.

Student Philosophy In Science Class, Owen Primavera

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

As a science teacher I know that facts are vital parts of teaching chemistry or biology, and that the better students understand chemical and biological systems the better they will understand how organisms function. But more than facts seems to be needed to teach ecology.

Trends In Secondary Science Enrollments In Iowa, Gary Downs

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Enrollment data were collected from the district administration for the five reported years starting with the 1968-69 school year. The data for the 1973-74 school year were collected at the school level. Collection at the school level should provide a more representative data bank for the academic programs. All the science offerings were grouped into the following seven categories: biology, chemistry, earth science, enrichment science, general science, physical science, and physics. It is interesting to note that in the 1968-69 data collection only 19 different courses were reported. In the succeeding years, 25, 56, 71, 74, and 96 were reported …

A Computer Assisted Environmental Education Resource Program, Sara K. Smerud, Gary Thomas, Tim Keenan, Dale Nimrod

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Northeast Iowa is an exceptionally beautiful and unique region. Environmental education in the schools and communities of this area is a vital factor in enabling citizens to take a reasoned approach to the conservation and management of this region. Two observations precipitated the action which resulted in the project described in this paper. The first was that the local resources were vulnerable to being utilized in a potentially harmful manner and secondly, teachers did not seem to be taking full advantage of their local resources in their classroom instruction.

Algae And Energy, James J. Hungerford

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The extent to which algae contribute to human welfare is often forgotten, ignored or unappreciated. Many types of algae serve as bases in commercially prepared foods and condiments. Algal products are used in cosmetics, textiles, pharmaceuticals and paints. In Asia, algae are often mixed and served with rice and fish to supplement the human diet. In coastal areas of the world, kelps are often chopped as food for livestock. The alga Poryphyra is cultivated in Japan to supply a 65 million pound annual market.

Drop-Out Study, Chemawa Indian School, Terry Farrow, Gordon Oats

Dissertations and Theses

Repeated inquiries and statements are made about the number of American Indian students who drop out or are pushed out of school. The Waxes noted that while drop-out rates are difficult to calculate because of a shifting population and absence of centralized, accurate records, current figures indicate that about one-half of those who enter the primary grades drop out before entering high school. Furthermore, only about a third of those entering school actually graduate. A study of Pima and Papago schools revealed much the same trends. Seven percent of the children ages six to eighteen are not enrolled in any …

Ectoparasites Of Mammals From Winneshiek County, Iowa, Dennis George Albertson
