Abstract:: There is an increasing world inventory of radiotechnetium (mainly ⁹⁹Tc) and it is inevitable that some of this will be released to the environment. However, little is known about the environmental behavior of this element. This work examined technetium's behavior in two representative freshwater species, the pearl mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera)...

Abstract:: The patterns of uptake, retention, and tissue distribution of ⁹⁵mTc in two freshwater species, the crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus and the snail Juga silicula have been investigated. The animals were chronically exposed in water to which sodium pertechnetate had been added. Final whole-body concentration ratios (CR) obtained were 1.6 and 41...

Abstract:: Global atmospheric pollution from chlorofluorocarbons has the potential of causing significant reductions in the concentrations of stratospheric ozone. If the production of chlorofluorocarbons were to continue into the future at the rate prevalent in 1977, the steady state reduction in total global ozone could be between five percent to ten...

Creator:: Ikkanda, John Martin
Abstract:: In January 1970, collections of Serpula vermicularis L. were obtained from Bray Point, Oregon, for the purpose of determining the effect of acclimation to salinity and temperature on its rate of respiration. The worms were removed from their tubes and acclimated to one of three salinities (28.8%₀, 31.1%₀, or 35.9%₀)...

Creator:: Elliott, William E.
Abstract:: The resurgence of creationism the past few years has been led by advocates of recent-creationism. These individuals, a minority among creationists in general, argue that the entire universe was created approximately 10,000 years ago in one six-day period of time. Recent-creationists support their position by appealing to the Genesis account...

Creator:: Currey, Linda Lorraine
Abstract:: In 1906, applying Charles Darwin's evolutionary theories to the human race, Sir Francis Galton introduced the concept of eugenics, "the science of the improvement of the human race by better breeding." The rediscovery in 1900 of Mendel's laws of genetic inheritance and an upsurge in hereditarian thought set the stage...
