I have had a problem for the last 15 years or so where I seem to "interfere" with electrical equipment. For example, I can't wear watches, I burn out tradition incandescent light bulbs like most people change their drawers, I get all kind of feed back from the intercom system in the hospital where I work (in the form of static...the speakers actually go off as I walk down the hall....it's kind of a joke to my co-workers - some of who have decided I'm possessed - LOL), computers freeze up on me frequently and I completely fried our last home pc....any others out there with similar problems. I assume it has something to do with electromagnetic fields....but not positive about that...any ideas?

if you can; answer,

1.the anaerobic breakdown of glucose pyruvic acid, which makes a small amount of energy available to cells in the form of ATP.

2.the synthesis of organic compounds from carbon dioxide, such as in photosynthesis

3.the synthesis of organic compounds from carbon dioxide, such as in photosynthesis

4. a green pigment that is present in most plant cells, that gives plants their characteristic green color and that racts with sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to form carbohydrates

5.electron carrier that provides the high-energy electrons needed to make carbon-hydrogen bonds in the third stage of photosynthesis.

6. a series of biochemical reactions that convert pyruvic acid into carbon dioxide and water, its the major pathway of oxidation in animal, bacterial, and plant cells, and it releases energy.


thank you so much!

Does "the number of electrons traveling trough (per square centimeter per second)", tell me the conductance of a circuit with resistors connected in serial/parallel? Or not quite and are they just remotely connected words?

The table below records for each of 11 plots of barley a measure of the extent of mildew
attack (actually the percentage of third youngest leaf area affected) and the ultimate yield of
grain in units of t/ha.

mildew (x) yield (y)
0.7----------- 4.41
2.6----------- 4.26
2.6----------- 4.38
4.3----------- 3.90
4.8----------- 4.28
0.9----------- 4.60
mildew (x) yield (y)
6.5----------- 3.87
2.4----------- 4.04
4.1----------- 4.16
4.7----------- 3.93
0.8----------- 4.60

(a) Perform a linear regression analysis using R. Explain any inference you can make from
the results.
(b) Plot the data and the fitted line.
(c) Using the equation of the straight line, predict the yield when mildew = 1.5.
(d) Find the correlation between the two variables.

The eye of a hurricane passes over Grand Bahama Island. It is moving in a direction 60.0° north of west with a speed of v1 = 37.0 km/h. Exactly three hours later, the course of the hurricane shifts due north, and its speed slows to v2 = 27.0 km/h, as shown in Figure 3-30. How far from Grand Bahama, in kilometers, is the hurricane 4.50 h after it passes over the island?

** for my answer i got 118 km the first time, the second time i got 104 km using tangent and finding the angle which i got 20 degrees and then used that to find the hypoteneuse.
