Thais emarginata is a gastropod which inhabits the midlittoral
zone of the intertidal region. Oxygen consumption of high-level and
low-level organisms was determined at various seasons of the year
over an experimental temperature range of 5 to 20° C.
No significant difference in respiratory rate between separate
populations of high-level...
Escherichia coli K12, UC41 (an auxotroph) and UC175 (a wild type)
were used to determine possible relationships between binding, uptake,
and respiration and minimum growth temperature.
Both E. coli strains had a minimum growth temperature of 8.0 C in
glucose minimal medium when cells were previously grown at 15 C....
The influence of certain environmental and edaphic
factors on the germination and emergence of downy brome
(Bromus tectorum L.) was investigated in the laboratory. A
preliminary study was conducted to determine the osmotic
stability of mannitol and polyethylene glycol 20,000 (PEG)
solutions, which are commonly used to simulate water stress...
The research presented in this thesis is concerned
with the
characterization of two salmonid cell lines, CSE 119 derived
from
embryos of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and
STE 137 derived
from embryos of steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri).
The rates of
glucose utilization and lactic acid production during the most
active...
The purpose of this investigation is to explore research management
problems pertaining to types of research where direct outputs are
in terms of intangible ideas or the kind of knowledge which takes years
to be proven applicable or economically fruitful.
The study was based on the analysis of the more...
The purpose of this study was to determine the readability of three
series of selected fourth, fifth and sixth grade social studies textbooks,
a total of nine textbooks. Two measurements were utilized: a readability
formula (Fry Readability Graph; Knapp, 1971), and group informal reading
inventories.
The Fry Graph was applied...
Steryl glycoside is synthesized from mevalonate [2- ¹⁴C] in both maturing pea seeds and etiolated pea seedlings. The maturing seed appeared more active than the seedlings for this synthesis. The sugar moiety was identified predominantly as glucose by acid hydrolysis and paper chromatography of the aqueous extract of the hydrolysate....
The purpose of this study was to examine how three
groups of counselors 1n Oregon's secondary schools viewed
the issue of what tasks should be performed by the Oregon
secondary school counselor. The three groups surveyed
were: sixty-three counselors who have standard norms,
sixty-six counselors who have basic norms, and...
Purpose of the Study
The purpose of the study was to determine whether there were significant
statistical differences in achievement between first-grade students
taught mathematics by male teachers as compared to first-grade students
taught mathematics by female teachers. A substantive hypothesis was
formed, which stated: "This writer hypothesizes that mean-gain...
Although studies have shown that some marine invertebrates
can obtain a portion of their nutrition from dissolved and nonliving
particulate organic matter, the relative importance of such foods in
their diet has not been established. The success of oyster hatcheries
could be significantly improved if the diet of living algal...
