what is cyber spoofing | In the context of network security, a spoofing attack is a situation in which one person or program successfully masquerades as another by falsifying data and thereby gaining an illegitimate advantage. | In computer networking, IP address spoofing or IP spoofing is the creation of Internet Protocol (IP) packets with a forged source IP address, with the purpose of concealing the identity of the sender or impersonating another computing system. | Spoofing. The word spoof means to hoax, trick, or deceive. Therefore, in the IT world, spoofing refers tricking or deceiving computer systems or other computer users. This is typically done by hiding one's identity or faking the identity of another user on the Internet. One common method is through e-mail. E-mail spoofing involves sending messages from a bogus e-mail address or faking the e-mail address of another user. Fortunately, most e-mail servers have security features that prevent unauthorized users from sending messages. | ARP spoofing is a type of attack in which a malicious actor sends falsified ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) messages over a local area network. This results in the linking of an attacker’s MAC address with the IP address of a legitimate computer or server on the network. Once the attacker’s MAC address is connected to an authentic IP address, the attacker will begin receiving any data that is intended for that IP address. | Figure 2: Spoofing, by definition, means to imitate or trick someone. To understand the spoofing attack, we need to examine the IP packet structure in detail. Many cyber attacks stem from design flaws in the fundamental network designs; packet spoofing is no exception. We offer cyber security penetration testing and consultancy services to a variety of customers. |

how does a breathalyzer test work | A breathalyzer or breathalyser (a portmanteau of breath and analyzer/analyser) is a device for estimating blood alcohol content (BAC) from a breath sample. Breathalyzer is the brand name for the instrument that tests the alcohol level developed by inventor Robert Frank Borkenstein. It was registered as a trademark on May 13, 1954, but many people use the term to refer to any generic device for estimating blood alcohol content. Where the defendant had refused to take a subsequent blood test, the only way the state could prove BAC was by presenting scientific evidence of how alcohol in the breath gets there from alcohol in the blood, along with evidence of how to convert from one to the other. | A breathalyzer measures the amount of alcohol in your lungs. If you had taken a single swallow of beer right before the breathalyzer test, your breath might smell of alcohol, but the test would indicate that you were not intoxicated. Alcohol’s Affect On The Body. The answer has to do with how alcohol is distributed throughout your body. Alcohol is a very small molecule that can cross the membranes of your body’s cells quite easily. Cellular membranes do not block the movement of alcohol molecules throughout the body. | It also passes through the alveoli in the lungs, and as you breath and the oxygen passes into the bloodstream, so does some of the alcohol in your blood evaporate into the air in your lungs. It is this alcohol that a Breathalyser is designed to measure. If you've been asking yourself how does a breathalyzer work then read this short article. You 'll practically be an expert by the time you finish.The Basics. In low concentrations, alcohol reduces inhibitions. | As the alcohol in the alveolar air is exhaled, it can be detected by the breath alcohol testing device. So instead of having to draw a driver's blood to test his alcohol level, an officer can test the breath on the spot and determine whether there is a reason to arrest the driver. Many officers in the field rely on breath alcohol testing devices (Breathalyzer is one type) to determine the blood alcohol concentration, referred to as BAC, in drunken-driving suspects. In this article we examine the scientific principles and technology behind these breath alcohol testing devices. Need for Testing. | To get the most accurate results from a breathalyzer test, wait at least 20 minutes after drinking or smoking to take the test. Blow into the machine with a slow, steady breath, trying to blow with the same force each time the test is taken. |

what is carburetor for | A carburetor (American and Canadian spelling), carburator, carburettor, or carburetter (Commonwealth spelling) is a device that blends air and fuel for an internal combustion engine. It is sometimes colloquially shortened to carb in North America or carby in Australia. To carburate or carburet (and thus carburation or carburetion, respectively) is to blend the air and fuel or to equip (an engine) with a carburetor for that purpose. Carburetors have largely been supplanted in the automotive industry by fuel injection. A carburetor basically consists of an open pipe through which the air passes into the inlet manifold of the engine. The pipe is in the form of a Venturi: it narrows in section and then widens again, causing the airflow to increase in speed in the narrowest part. | A carburetor, called a carb for short, is a device used in an internal combustion engine, such as the type found in an automobile. Invented by Karl Benz in the 1800s and patented in 1886, a carburetor’s job is to mix air and fuel. All carburetors follow a basic type of construction. Basically, a carburetor consists of a tube with an adjustable plate across it. This plate is called the throttle plate and controls the amount of airflow. A narrowing in the tube is called the venturi, which creates the carburetor's vacuum. | Full Definition of CARBURETOR. : a mechanical apparatus for premixing vaporized fuel and air in proper proportions and supplying the mixture to an internal combustion engine. See carburetor defined for English-language learners. See carburetor defined for kids. ADVERTISEMENT. Definition of CARBURETOR for Kids. : the part of an engine in which liquid fuel (as gasoline) is mixed with air to make it burn easily. | The fuel and air mixture is too rich when it has an excess of fuel, and too lean when there is not enough. The mixture is adjusted by one or more needle valves on an automotive carburetor, or a pilot-operated lever on piston-engined aircraft (since the mixture changes with air density and therefore altitude). A carburetor basically consists of an open pipe through which the air passes into the inlet manifold of the engine. The pipe is in the form of a Venturi: it narrows in section and then widens again, causing the airflow to increase in speed in the narrowest part. | Getting the fuel-air mixture just right is the job of a clever mechanical gadget called a carburetor: a tube that allows air and fuel into the engine through valves, mixing them together in different amounts to suit a wide range of different driving conditions. In summary, then, here's how it all works: 1 Air flows into the top of the carburetor from the car's air intake. 2 When the engine is first started, the choke (blue) can be set so it almost blocks the top of the pipe to reduce the amount of air coming in (increasing the fuel content of the mixture entering the cylinders). |

what makes a gas dissolve faster | Answer by Carlos Ayala. Confidence votes 1.5K. When you wish to dissolve a solid in a liquid faster, you increase the temperature. This makes the solid particles move faster and farther, and thus dissolve in the liquid faster. However, the problem with dissolving a gas is the opposite: gas particles already are moving fast and far, to the point where it is difficult to keep them stay in the liquid. The opposite is thus done, lower the temperature. | A solute is the substance—either a solid, liquid or gas—that gets dissolved. A solvent —which also can be a solid, liquid, or gas—is the substance that does the dissolving. A solution is a uniform mixture of a solute (usually a solid) dissolved in a solvent (usually a liquid). And when the excessive solute has been dissolved by heating the solution, it's said to be supersaturated. The point of this experiment, in addition to learning whether salt or sugar dissolves faster in various liquids, is to learn how molecules interact in a solution. | As the sugar molecules spread evenly throughout the water, the sugar dissolves. Mixing a liquid in a gas makes another type of solution, called a gaseous solution. An example of this type of solution is humidity. Humidity is water (a liquid) dissolved in air (a gas). And when the excessive solute has been dissolved by heating the solution, it's said to be supersaturated. The point of this experiment, in addition to learning whether salt or sugar dissolves faster in various liquids, is to learn how molecules interact in a solution. | 1 The dissolving of a gas in water depends on the interaction between the molecules of the gas and the water molecules. 2 The amount of gas that can be dissolved in water depends on the temperature of the water. CO2 is soluble because water molecules are attracted to these polar areas. The bond between carbon and oxygen is not as polar as the bond between hydrogen and oxygen, but it is polar enough that carbon dioxide can dissolve in water. | You can make a solid dissolve faster in water that; 1. Stirring the mixture, the solid dissolves faster, that doesn't effect amount of resolition 2. The warmer the water, the faster the water molecules move, thus enabling them to pull apart the solid faster. 2. Stirring the mixture (this gets more of the water in contact with the solid, faster). 3. If it's not already done, breaking the solid up into smaller particles. |

how to use iserror | In earlier versions of Excel, we have a formula called as ISERROR() that can check an expression or formula for error and return TRUE if so. This formula is not same as IFERROR, but we can use it along with IF() formula to get the same result. For eg. | This example illustrates the ISERROR function in Excel. 1. For example, Excel displays the #DIV/0! error when a formula tries to divide a number by 0. The ISERROR function checks whether a value is an error and returns TRUE or FALSE. 2. Use the IF and the ISERROR function. If a cell contains an error, the value 5 is returned | I think the formula does have an error in it. If you use the IF(ISERROR) function, to check for an #REF error, the function needs to be of the type; =IF(ISERROR(B6),error,B6). In that example, B6 refers to cell A1 in another sheet which I made to be non-existant, hence B6 shows #REF. So, I then put this forumla into D6. What it does is this. If False, then the value of B6 is displayed. You can use this. The data is imported into a range of cells, then copied using the ISERROR function into another range.

what is the amount of sodium recommended per day | Most Canadians consume far more sodium than is needed. The recommended amount per day is between 1500 mg (considered adequate intake) and 2300 mg (upper amount) for people 9 -50 years of age. For people over 50 years of age, an adequate intake drops to 1300 mg per day until 70 and then 1200 mg over 7 | The Institute of Medicine, part of the National Academy of Sciences, issued a report that lowered the recommended daily amount of sodium. Previously, the daily allowance was 2500 milligrams, but it has been lowered to 1500 milligrams per day. | The recommendation for sodium intake is less than 2,300 mg/day for adults. This equals about one teaspoon of table salt. Most people consume far too much sodium through processed foods and table salt, therefore, this recommendation is set at an upper limit. | Recommended intake of sodium. It is recommended that people over the age of one year eat between 1000-1500 mg sodium per day. This is referred to as the Adequate Intake (AI) .

different types of vitamin c | Dietary supplements. Supplements typically contain vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid, which has equivalent bioavailability to that of naturally occurring ascorbic acid in foods, such as orange juice and broccoli [ 13-15 ]. Other forms of vitamin C supplements include sodium ascorbate; calcium ascorbate; other mineral ascorbates; ascorbic acid with bioflavonoids; and combination products, such as Ester-C®, which contains calcium ascorbate, dehydroascorbate, calcium threonate, xylonate and lyxonate [ 16 ]. | Collagen is a type of protein found in many different types of tissue, such as skin, blood vessels, bones and cartilage. Without vitamin C, collagen can't be replaced and the different types of tissue break down, leading to the symptoms of scurvy. These include: 1 muscle and joint pain. 2 tiredness. 3 the appearance of red dots on the skin. 4 bleeding and swelling of the gums | Here’s how that works. These two forms of Vitamin C – Ascorbic Acid and Calcium Ascorbate – cause different pH reactions in different Metabolic Types. For example, Calcium Ascorbate balances the pH of certain Metabolic Types, but unbalances other types. And the same is true of Ascorbic Acid – it balances certain types and unbalances others. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps with the immune system and other metabolic processes. It has been shown that vitamin C is an essential building block of collagen, which builds bone, skin, blood vessels and other tissues. | Ester C is a patented formulation of Vitamin C in the Calcium Ascorbate form that makes it easily absorbable as well as non-acidic. It is a top of the range product and highly recommended for maximum, rapid absorption and for taking large doses. It is also the most expensive type of Vitamin C. A powder form of Vitamin C will be more rapidly absorbed, as it does not have to be digested first. A powder form of Vitamin C will not contain any added tableting agents. A Vitamin C tablet can be buffered to make it more gentle on the stomach. Thank you for taking time to read this information about the different types of Vitamin C.

where is tib fib | The lower tibia and fibula epiphyses form the lumps that we see and feel at the sides of our ankles and call ankle bones. The fancy name is malleolus (mah LEE o LUS). The medial malleolus is the inner ankle bone and the lateral malleolus is the outer ankle bone. Together they are the malleoli (mah LEE o LYE). | Her tib break was through the growth plate at her ankle and the fib break about an inch higher. No surgery, just a full leg plaster cast for about 4 weeks, at which tim it was cut down below her knee. at 6 weeks this was replaced w a fiberglass cast, then replaced again after a few weeks w a second fiberglass cast. | 6 weeks ago I broke my tib/fib and got surgery that night to insert a rod in my entire tibia along with 3 screws and a plate and 8 screws in my fibula. They put a soft cast on it for a week and then removed it and gave me a boot. | Background. Lower leg fractures include fractures of the tibia and fibula. Of these two bones, the tibia is the only weightbearing bone. Fractures of the tibia generally are associated with fibula fracture, because the force is transmitted along the interosseous membrane to the fibula. The skin and subcutaneous tissue are very thin over the anterior and medial tibia and as a result of this, a significant number of fractures to the lower leg are open. | Fractures ofthese bones often result from a sport-related injury or motor vehicle ac-cident. Most fractures of the tibia and fibula (tib-fib fractures) healwithout complication, and the patient is able to resume his or hernormal activities. However, potentially serious complications can develop, and you mustbe aware of their early warning signs. |

Many protists, such as algae, are photosynthetic and are vital primary producers in ecosystems, particularly in the ocean as part of the plankton. Most eukaryotic algae are autotrophic, but the pigments were lost in some groups. Other protists are heterotrophic, and may present phagotrophy, osmotrophy, saprotrophy or parasitism. Some are mixotrophic. Many protists are flagellate, for example, and filter feeding can take place where the flagella find prey. | 1 Some protists are more closely related to plants, fungi, or animals than they are to other protists. 2 As a result, the kingdom Protista has been abandoned. 3 Various lineages are recognized as kingdoms in their own right. 1 However, it is now clear that Protista is in fact paraphyletic. 2 Some protists are more closely related to plants, fungi, or animals than they are to other protists. 3 | • Some are digestive and animal-like; others are absorptive and fungus like; others are photosynthetic (plant-like); others are aquatic • Eukaryotic cells—all eukaryotic cells that do not have the distinctive features needed to be classified as a plant, animal, or fungi cell can often be classified as a protist. | The protists are a diverse group of organisms. In a sense, they are defined by what they aren't. Protists are eukaryotes that are not animals, fungi, or plants. In fact, these other groups probably evolved from a protist-like ancestors. We will be looking at a subset of the protists that are photosynthetic. Secondary endosymbionts: the dinoflagellates and the heterokonts. These groups are also photosynthetic, but they got their chloroplasts by capturing red algae, green algae, or other eukaryote organisms that already had a chloroplast, but not directly from the capture of cyanobacteria. |

what tissues are lungs made of | You can find simple squamous epithelial tissue in alveoli in lungs. The reason of it, is that simple squamous cells are very thin and they pass the gases through very easily. As you know the alveoli's' role is to exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide, thin walls help to do it quicker. | The lungs are composed of various specialized cells and tissues -- not just simple tubes or pipes. Lining them are epithelial cells with specialized hairs, or cilia, which help trap particles and prevent infection from reaching the lungs. Beneath these cells is the basement membrane that forms a firm foundation for the epithelial cells, and under that is looser tissue full of mucous glands and other specialized cells such as eosinophils, mast cells, lymphocytes, and white blood cells called polys. Under this layer is smooth muscle. | The essential tissue of the lung lung parenchyma is made up of clusters of spongy air sacs called lobules. There are about 130,000 primary lobules in each lung. Each lobule is approximately 3.5 millimeters in diameter and contains about 2,200 alveoli (air sacs and ducts). The lungs are the body's major organs of respiration. The two vital parts that make up the lungs are located on each side of the chest within the rib cage. They are separated by the heart and other contents of the mediastinumthe tissues and organs of the middle chest (e.g., the heart and large vessels, windpipe). | Our lungs fuel us with oxygen, the body's life-sustaining gas. They breathe in air, then extract the oxygen and pass it into the bloodstream, where it's rushed off to the tissues and organs that require it to function. Oxygen drives the process of respiration, which provides our cells with energy. Our two lungs are made up of a complex latticework of tubes, which are suspended, on either side of the heart, inside the chest cavity on a framework of elastic fibers. Air is drawn in via the mouth and the nose, the latter acting as an air filter by trapping dust particles on its hairs. | A connective tissue disease is any disease that affects the parts of the body that connect the structures of the body together. Connective tissues are made up of two proteins: collagen and elastin. Collagen is a protein found in the tendons, ligaments, skin, cornea, cartilage, bone, and blood vessels. Elastin is a stretchy protein that resembles a rubber band and is the major component of ligaments and skin. |

There are two types of extrinsic semiconductor which are manufactured, P type semiconductor and N type semiconductor. | The potential of NADH and FADH 2 is converted to more ATP through an electron transport chain with oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor. Most of the ATP produced by aerobic cellular respiration is made by oxidative phosphorylation. This is also called the Krebs cycle or the tricarboxylic acid cycle. When oxygen is present, acetyl-CoA is produced from the pyruvate molecules created from glycolysis. When oxygen is present, the mitochondria will undergo aerobic respiration which leads to the Krebs cycle. | The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions, which break large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy in the process, as weak so-called high-energy bonds are replaced by stronger bonds in the products. Respiration is one of the key ways a cell gains useful energy to fuel cellular activity. This is also called the Krebs cycle or the tricarboxylic acid cycle. When oxygen is present, acetyl-CoA is produced from the pyruvate molecules created from glycolysis. When oxygen is present, the mitochondria will undergo aerobic respiration which leads to the Krebs cycle. | The electron transport chain is a series of electron carriers in the membrane of the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells.

Cat urine health is an important indicator used by your veterinarian regarding the health of your cat. Most veterinarians will do a urinalysis as part of an ordinary checkup after age 7 or if your cat is sick. The sample should be ideally collected and provided to your vet within 1/2 hour to 2 hours prior to testing. |
what color is normal cat urine | Urine Amount: this depends on how much your cat is drinking and if the kidney if functioning properly (renal health). Cat Urine color: cat urine is usually yellow or amber. If the urine is cloudy and red it indicates that there is blood in the urine. 1 Dark red or brown urine: Indicates blood in the urine. 2 Yellow-brown, greenish: yellow, dark brown, foam: may indicate some type of liver problem. 3 Pink, blue, other colors: may be due to drugs your cat is taking. Disease may still exist in feline urine that has a normal appearance. Feline Urine Transparency (turbidity) : Normal urine is clear. If it isn't clear it could indicate some type of disease is present. Cat Urine odor: Smell such as a strong ammonia like odor might indicate a bacterial infection (sepsis). | Cat Urine Health Signs. Your veterinarian will check the color, cloudiness, odor, and another measure which is called the gravity of the urine (a measure of what is in the urine-see below). Healthy Urine Color: Healthy urine is has a clear yellow or amber color. Don't be overly concerned with dark color since that might mean that your cat hasn't had enough to drink and is dehydrated. If you see a reddish or brown color that could mean that blood in present which could indicate a problem with your cat's liver.

It should be light to dark yellow in color and kind of musky. The brown you are seeing may be traces of blood which could indicate a urinary tract infection. I recommend that you take your kitty to the vet to get checked out. George answered on 12/5/12. | The intensity of yellow color in normal, clear urine indicates the concentration or dilution of urine. In simplest terms, dilute urine is associated with increased water excretion and concentrated urine correlates with less water. Dark yellow is typically normal in most pets. If the urine is more orange, it may be associated with a condition known as icterus or jaundice. Orange urine may be the result of: 1 Damaged red blood cells. 2 Liver disease. 3 Severe dehydration. 4 Bile duct problems. |
is radioactive waste dangerous | Radioactive waste is hazardous to most forms of life and the environment, and is regulated by government agencies in order to protect human health and the environment. The radioactivity of all nuclear waste diminishes with time. All radionuclides contained in the waste have a half-life —the time it takes for half of the atoms to decay into another nuclide —and eventually all radioactive waste decays into non-radioactive elements (i.e., stable nuclides). | Nuclear power: a dangerous waste of timeThe unresolved legacy of nuclear power:radioactive materials – a continuing threat Introduction The nuclear power industry is attempting to exploit the climate crisis by aggressively promoting nuclear technology as a “low-carbon” means of generating electricity. When a uranium atom is split, it produces not only energy but also highly dangerous radioactive waste. On average, uranium ore contains only 0.1% uranium. The overwhelming majority of the materials extracted during uranium ore mining is waste containing other hazardous radioactive and toxic substances. | Radioactivity naturally decays over time, so radioactive waste has to be isolated and confined in appropriate disposal facilities for a sufficient period until it no longer poses a threat. The time radioactive waste must be stored for depends on the type of waste and radioactive isotopes. The radioactivity of all nuclear waste diminishes with time. All radionuclides contained in the waste have a half-life —the time it takes for half of the atoms to decay into another nuclide —and eventually all radioactive waste decays into non-radioactive elements (i.e., stable nuclides). | A summary of the amounts of radioactive waste and management approaches for most developed countries are presented and reviewed periodically as part of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Joint Convention on the Safety of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management. The radioactivity of all nuclear waste diminishes with time. All radionuclides contained in the waste have a half-life —the time it takes for half of the atoms to decay into another nuclide —and eventually all radioactive waste decays into non-radioactive elements (i.e., stable nuclides). | Nuclear Reprocessing: Dangerous, Dirty, and Expensive. Reprocessing is a series of chemical operations that separates plutonium and uranium from other nuclear waste contained in the used (or “spent”) fuel from nuclear power reactors. Plutonium constitutes only about one percent of the spent fuel from U.S. reactors. After reprocessing, the remaining material will be in several different waste forms, and the total volume of nuclear waste will have been increased by a factor of twenty or more, including low-level waste and plutonium-contaminated waste. |
where are precambrian rocks found | The Precambrian or Pre-Cambrian; sometimes abbreviated pЄ is the largest span of time in Earth's history before the current Phanerozoic Eon, and is a Supereon divided into several eons of the geologic time scale. The Precambrian Supereon is divided into three eons: the Hadean (4500-3950 Ma), Archean (4000-2500 Ma) and Proterozoic (2500-541.0 ± 1.0 Ma). See Timetable of the Precambrian. 1 Proterozoic: this eon refers to the time from the lower Cambrian boundary, 541.0 ± 1.0 Ma, back through 2500 Ma. | In the last few decades, however, geologists have found that there are some hard-to-discern fossils in some Precambrian rocks, so this period also is now known as the Cryptozoic or obscure life. Eon (from the words crypt = hidden, and zoon = life). This eon covers almost 90% of the entire history of Earth. | The Precambrian is so named because it precedes the Cambrian, the first period of the Phanerozoic Eon, which is named after Cambria, the classical name for Wales, where rocks from this age were first studied. The Precambrian Supereon is divided into three eons: the Hadean (4500-3950 Ma), Archean (4000-2500 Ma) and Proterozoic (2500-541.0 ± 1.0 Ma).

how long to cook chuck roast | 5. Cook the roast for 3 to 4 hours or until the meat is fork tender. Use a meat thermometer to determine the roast is done cooking. The internal temperature should reach at least 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius). It's an inexpensive cut, with a rich, delicious flavor that makes it a classic main dish for a big home-cooked meal. For tender, pull-apart meat, it should be slow cooked to allow time for the meat to soften and become juicy. Read on to learn how to make a chuck roast. 1 Prep time: 30-45 minutes. 2 Cook time: 3-4 hours. 3 Total time: 4-5 hours | 1. Rub roasts evenly with 1 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper. 2. Brown roasts on all sides in hot oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat (about 10 minutes). Place roasts, side by side, in a 6-qt. slow cooker. Add carrots and remaining ingredients. 3. Cook, covered, on LOW 10 to 12 hours or until tender. Remove roast and vegetables, and shred meat. Pour gravy mixture from slow cooker into a 4-cup measuring cup or fat strainer, and let stand 15 minutes. Spoon or pour fat out of gravy mixture in cup or fat strainer, and discard. | 1 Return to Dutch oven. 2 In a small bowl, stir 1/2 cup water into flour. 3 Stir into pan juices. 4 Cook, stirring, on medium heat until thickened, then 1 minute more. 5 Season to taste. 6 Serve with pot roast. 7 For oven cooking: After browning meat and adding liquid mixture to pan, bake, covered, for 1 hour at 325 degrees. 1 Brown meat on all sides in hot oil in a 4- to 6-quart Dutch oven. 2 Drain fat. 3 Mix 3/4 cup water, Worcestershire sauce, bouillon, basil and salt and pepper to taste. 4 Pour over roast. | 1 Sear the roast on both sides for 5-6 minutes each, until well browned. 2 Remove from the skillet and set aside. 3 Reduce the heat to medium and stir in mushrooms and butter; cook for 3-4 minutes. 4 Stir in onion; cook for 5 minutes, until onions are translucent and begin to brown. 1 Reduce the heat to medium and stir in mushrooms and butter; cook for 3-4 minutes. 2 Stir in onion; cook for 5 minutes, until onions are translucent and begin to brown. 3 Add garlic, stir for about a minute. 4 Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons flour; cook and stir for about 1 minute. 5 Add tomato paste, and cook for another minute. | Time to put it in the oven. Put the lid on, then roast in a 275-degree oven for 3 hours, for a 3 pound roast. For a 4 to 5 pound roast, plan on 4 hours. And don’t peek and fiddle and frig with it, either. Just find a hobby that will occupy your thoughts and actions for the time it takes for your roast to cook. Place the meat in the pan and sear it for about a minute on all sides until it is nice and brown all over. Remove the roast to a plate. With the burner still on high, use either red wine or beef broth (about 1 cup) to deglaze the pan, scraping the bottom with a whisk to get all of that wonderful flavor up. |
do patients with hypothyroidism have problems with iron levels | Anemia. For example, iron-deficiency anemia (insufficient iron) is more common in people with hypothyroidism. Symptoms or signs of anemia include: 1 Feeling tired or weak. 2 Pale appearance to the lining of lower eyelids. 3 palpitations, fast or irregular heart beat. 4 faintness and breathlessness. 5 hair loss. | METHODS: In a randomized, double-blind, active-controlled trial, 60 patients with subclinical hypothyroidism and iron-deficiency anemia received iron salt+placebo (20 patients), levothyroxine+placebo (20 patients), or levothyroxine+iron salt (20 patients) for 3 months. | OBJECTIVE: Subclinical hypothyroidism is a health state that is associated with hypercholesterolemia, infertility, iron-deficiency anemia, and poor obstetric outcome. | Symptoms of hypothyroidism can vary from mild to severe. Examples of the most common hypothyroidism symptoms include weight gain, constipation, depression, feeling run down, thinning or brittle hair or nails, intolerance to cold, loss of libido, and sleepiness. | Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the body lacks sufficient thyroid hormone. Since the main purpose of thyroid hormone is to run the body's metabolism, it is understandable that people with this condition will have symptoms associated with a slow metabolism. |
first pass yield definition | First pass yield (FPY) , also known as throughput yield (TPY) , is defined as the number of units coming out of a process divided by the number of units going into that process over a specified period of time. | Definition. A metric for determining the performance of a production or manufacturing process. The first time yield can be calculated by dividing the number of goods from a manufactured lot that meet pre-specified quality standards by the total number produced by the process. Also called first-pass yield. | Also related, first time yield (FTY) is simply the number of good units produced divided by the number of total units going into the process. First time yield considers only what went into a process step and what went out, while FPY adds the consideration of rework. | FIRST PASS YIELD The FPY is defined as the number of products coming out of a process divided by the number of products going into that process over a specified phase of time. Only good units with no rework are counted as coming out of an individual process. FPY, also known as Throughput Yield (TPY). | As you can see, the more process steps you have, the more challenging it will be to get an item through the system without any issues. For example, consider an operation that has 4 processes, each with a yield of 95%. Using the first pass yield equation above, the FYP is: .95 x .95 x .95 x .95 = .81. |
what is nitrobenzene soluble in | Description. Nitrobenzene is a greenish-yellow crystalline solid or colorless to pale yellow, oily liquid with an almond oil odor.

wild turkey species ranges | The wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) is native to North America and is the heaviest member of the diverse Galliformes. It is the same species as the domestic turkey, which was originally derived from a southern Mexican subspecies of wild turkey (not the related ocellated turkey). Population estimates for this subspecies range from 1,022,700 to 1,025,700. This subspecies, native to the central plain states, was first described in 1879, and has relatively long legs, better adapted to a prairie habitat. Its body feathers often have a green-coppery sheen. | Supplied by: NWTF.

The wild turkey is the largest game bird in North America | The range of this species covers the entire eastern half of the United States, extending into South Eastern Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, and the Maritime Provinces in Canada. Eastern turkey populations number from 5.1 to 5.3 million birds, the most numerous of any turkey subspecies. Rio Grande turkeys were also introduced to Hawaii in the late 1950s. Population estimates for this subspecies range from 1,022,700 to 1,025,700. This sub-species is native to the central plain states. They were first described in 1879 and have longer legs when compared to their body size. |
why is nicotine bad for you | Nicotine has bad effects on the health of your lungs, too, although most of this risk comes from the act of smoking rather than from nicotine itself. Smoking is one of the worst things you can do for your lungs, especially if you have health conditions like asthma or allergies that already compromise your lung health. Paranoia sells and it gets lots of readers. So you may have rightly started to distrust news stories that talk about the latest dangers to your health. After all, everything from air to gluten has been linked to serious health risks. You may now be wondering just how bad nicotine really is for | Tar sticks to the insides of your lungs and can cause cancer. Nicotine (a drug in tobacco) makes your blood vessels smaller. That means your heart has to work harder to pump the blood. A very dangerous gas called carbon monoxide is in cigarette smoke. In fact, it's just the opposite: smoking is the only legal consumer product that kills you when you use it exactly how it's meant to be used! That's pretty scary, isn't it? Cigarettes are made from tobacco. The tobacco plant is the only plant ever discovered to contain the drug called nicotine. | Nicotine is a very strong poison that can kill a human in less than an hour if even a small amount is injected into the blood-stream. Tobacco smoke contains very tiny amounts of nicotine that aren't deadly, but are still very bad for our health. Tobacco smoke also contains many other chemicals. In fact, it contains over 4,000 chemicals, many of which are very harmful to our bodies.

cost to treat termites | According to Turner Pest Control, many home insurers do not cover the cost of termite treatment. Treatment can be expensive depending on where you live, what kind of termites you have, and how bad the infestation is. It can cost anywhere from $500-$4,000. The construction of your home can differ the cost as well. | Ft. x .84 cents per Ln. ft. (Termidor cost based on $50 per bottle) = $201.60 for the treatment. When you have a termite company treat your home you will receive a guaranty against future infestations and an annual inspection. When you do it yourself you don’t receive a guaranty and you have to inspect your own house every year. | This treatment can protect your home from subterranean termites for up to 10 years! Subterranean termites are the one of the most damaging termites and cost homeowners in the U.S. $4.5 billion dollars in treatments and prevention every year. The termite treatment cost is significantly less when you do it yourself. | Figuring a termite treatment cost on an existing home infested with native species subterranean termites is a bit more involved. In the Phoenix area the average price to treat a home runs between $1.75 to $3.00 per linear foot. | Termites damage approximately 600,000 homes in the U.S. each year. Nationwide, the cost for termite control measures and repairs for damage totals about $5 billion annually.

can you use windex to clean sterling silver jewelry | Sterling silver is a soft, malleable metal and can be easily scratched or damaged. Therefore, when cleaning silver jewelry, use polishes that are specifically formulated to remove tarnish from silver jewelry. Some companies provide polishing cloths, silver storage pouches, or both with the purchase of their jewelry. Also, avoid exposing your silver jewelry to harsh chemicals, bleach and chlorine, as these can damage the silver. Another great way to clean your sterling silver jewelry is with Windex. Yes…Windex. | 1 Dry and buff the silver with a soft, clean cloth. 2 Remove light tarnish with a liquid non-abrasive, unscented aloe-free hand sanitizer, such as Purell, or Windex with vinegar. 3 Moisten a large cotton ball and rotate it regularly as you clean the tarnish. 4 Dry the silver with a cotton dish towel. Cleaning sterling silver involves removing tarnish and then polishing the piece to bring out the shine. Tarnish is the oxidization that occurs when air-borne sulfurs and chlorides are present, causing a yellowish cast on the sterling silver. | If the sterling silver has dulled but is not heavily tarnished, it can be cleaned with soap and water. Mix together warm water and mild phosphate-free detergent or dishwashing liquid. Place the silver jewelry in the solution and swirl it around. Use a soft toothbrush to lightly scrub at intricately detailed patterns. Windex. If you're pressed for time and want to give a favorite piece of sterling silver a quick shine, reach for some Windex Multi-Surface Cleaner. Spray a little Windex on a soft cloth or a cotton ball and gently rub the tarnish off of your silver. | Windex is often used to shine up silver and gold jewelry, including some gemstones (but not the delicate stones listed above; also don’t use Windex or any other ammonia solution on oxidized sterling silver, since the ammonia can damage the oxidized finish). For plain sterling silver jewelry (with no stones), you can also get good results using commercial silver dip liquid, polish paste, or polish cloth. I wouldn’t use these products on jewelry containing gemstones, though. | Spray Windex on the jewelry, wait a few moments, rinse, and wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. There’s also an easy method for removing tarnish from sterling silver using a few items you already have in your kitchen. See How to Clean Tarnished Silver Jewelry for using this method. And again, you can also use an ionic cleaner to remove tarnish and quickly get sterling silver sparkling like new.

what kind of flower does bees like | Bees and Flowers. Bees are attracted to flower nectar and pollen. Pollen is a source of direct food and energy for bees, and nectar is used to make honey, which is saved up for food as well. Bees' relationship with flowers stems even further, as bees are not the only beneficiary. Flowers also benefit from bees by way of pollination. Even with the right plants, a variety of flowers and multiple bunches of flowers, other factors may come into play with attracting bees or not. Mulch, which has become popular over the years, is something that deters bees from entering a garden. There are many bees that nest in the ground, and they prefer plain dirt. | Bees love flowers. Sunflower, barberry, geranium, cornflower, and broom are some of the most popular and attractive to bees. Roses are a special favorite of all types of bees. Honeybees make great use of rose pollen and create delicious honey. Another favorite is catnip. This exciting plant isn't just for cats--bees love it, too. It is a large, 2- to 3-foot plant with big, bold flowers that bees find as irresistible as cats do. | Bees love flowers. They collect both the nectar and pollen from flowers in order to produce honey and feed their young. As long as you have flowers in your garden, you will likely have bees. However, bees do prefer certain types of flowers, while other animal pollinators, such as butterflies and birds, prefer others. | Bees are attracted to a variety of bright colors, but blue, yellow and purple flowers are the most attractive to bees. Avoid flowers with those bloom colors and opt for flowers with red blooms. Bees do not see red -- it appears black to them -- so red flowers do not attract bees. Choose from the vast variety of red flowers available to avoid bees. Bees help pollinate many types of plants, including garden plants like cucumbers, but for people who are allergic or do not want to attract bees to their yard, they can be a nuisance. | What to Plant. Bees are not attracted to many types of trees, such as elm, birch and oak, or to conifers, ground covers or shrubs. Ornamental grasses are an excellent choice if you do not want to attract bees to your yard, as bees are not attracted to them and they add beauty to the landscape. Bees help pollinate many types of plants, including garden plants like cucumbers, but for people who are allergic or do not want to attract bees to their yard, they can be a nuisance. |

what does lipoprotein lipase do | Lipoprotein Lipase. Lipoprotein lipase is an enzyme that is important for the transfer of triglycerides from your blood lipoproteins into your tissues. Insulin stimulates lipoprotein lipase production, especially in your fatty tissues. The enzyme then adheres to the inside of tiny blood vessels in your tissues called capillaries. Lipoprotein lipase breaks down the triglycerides in the lipoproteins to smaller fatty acids and monoglycerides that are transported into your tissues and either burned for fuel or re-assembled into triglycerides for storage. | Insulin and lipoprotein lipase work together in your body to use extra calories from carbohydrates in your diet to make and store fats. Insulin is a pancreatic hormone that is commonly known to regulate your blood sugar level, but it also regulates the production of fats from carbohydrates. Lipoprotein lipase breaks down the triglycerides in the lipoproteins to smaller fatty acids and monoglycerides that are transported into your tissues and either burned for fuel or re-assembled into triglycerides for storage. | Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) (EC 3.1.1.34) is a member of the lipase gene family, which includes pancreatic lipase, hepatic lipase, and endothelial lipase. Lipoprotein lipase has been shown to interact with LRP1. It is also a ligand for α2M, GP330, and VLDL receptors. LPL has been shown to be a ligand for LRP2, albeit at a lower affinity than for other receptors; however, most of the LPL-dependent VLDL degradation can be attributed to the LRP2 pathway. | LPL requires ApoC-II as a cofactor. LPL is attached to the luminal surface of endothelial cells in capillaries by the protein glycosylphosphatidylinositol HDL-binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1) and by heparin sulfated proteoglycans.

what is the savanna like in africa | Savanna is an enormous plain with hills and forests. It has different names in the seperate parts of the globe from the equator to tropics. Savanna is an enormous plain between moisture equator forests and tropical deserts. The biggest savannas are in Africa. It is 40% from it. The seasons in Africa's savanna are two: wet and dry. In the equator the dry season is shorter - 2-3 months and near the tropics it is longer - 9-10 months, but in the largest part of the savanna the wet and dry seasons are long 5-6 months. In the wet seasons there are heavy rains pouring down. In the dry seasons vegetable life grows very fast. | Plants Animals Climate Australian Tropical Savanna African Savanna A savanna is a rolling grassland scattered with shrubs and isolated trees, which can be found between a tropical rainforest and desert biome. Not enough rain falls on a savanna to support forests. | Climate. The climate is brutal in the African Savanna. There is a rainy season and a dry season. It rains about 15-30 inches in the rainy season and not more than 4 in the dry season. The rainy season is December-April and the Dry season is May-November. The storms that occur the most are lightning storms. | WEATHER: An important factor in the savanna is climate. The climate is usually warm and temperatures range from 68° to 86°F (20 to 30°C).

what is stateful firewall | From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In computing, a stateful firewall (any firewall that performs stateful packet inspection (SPI) or stateful inspection) is a firewall that keeps track of the state of network connections (such as TCP streams, UDP communication) traveling across it. A stateful firewall keeps track of the state of network connections (such as TCP streams or UDP communication) and is able to hold significant attributes of each connection in memory. | Stateful inspection, also referred to as dynamic packet filtering, is a security feature often included in business networks. Check Point Software introduced stateful inspection in the use of its FireWall-1 in 1994. A stateful firewall keeps track of the state of network connections (such as TCP streams or UDP communication) and is able to hold significant attributes of each connection in memory. | Stateful firewalls inspect the packets at all levels. A stateless firewall is one that is statically configured to permit or deny specific IP traffic based simply on its source and/or destination ip address and/or port number. It does not look any deeper into the packet. Best Answer: Stateful is a type of firewall that inspects packets as they flow through it, allowing established connections to continue whilst denying packets that are not associated with an established connection. | Before the advent of stateful firewalls, there were stateless firewalls, a firewall that treated each network frame (or packet) in isolation. Packet filters like these operated at the Network Layer (layer 3) and functioned more efficiently because they only looked at the header part of a packet. A stateful firewall keeps track of the state of network connections (such as TCP streams or UDP communication) and is able to hold significant attributes of each connection in memory. | A stateful firewall keeps track of the state of connections based on source/destination IP, source/destination port and connections flags. It can really only keep state for TCP connections because TCP uses flags in the packet headers. With stateful failover, the state table from the active firewall is replicated to the standby firewall incase of a failover event. With stateless failover, the state table is not replicated to the standby firewall, so in the event of a failover, all connections have to be re-initiated. |
what is dacron material | Chemically, Dacron, which is DuPont’s trade name for the fabric, is the compound polyethylene terephthalate, although it quickly became known as polyester.

Dacron sail fabric has continued to develop since it was introduced in the mid-fifties. Woven 8 oz. Dacron fabrics range from $.35 per square foot to $1.10 per square foot depending on the price and quality of the yarn, the manufacturing costs (smaller denier fibers require more shuttle passes and more time to weave than a larger denier fiber), yarn content and type of finish. | Dacron is normally sold by the pound and comes in rolls 27 or 54 inches wide. It can be anywhere from 1' to 1 1/2 in thickness and can be split up through the middle to give a thinner material for use as a cushion wrap.

This is what a cutting torch does. | Reaction of iron with air. Iron metal reacts in moist air by oxidation to give a hydrated iron oxide. This does not protect the iron surface to further reaction since it flakes off, exposing more iron metal to oxidation. This process is called rusting and is familiar to any car owner. Air-free water has little effect upon iron metal. However, iron metal reacts in moist air by oxidation to give a hydrated iron oxide. This does not protect the iron surface to further reaction since it flakes off, exposing more iron metal to oxidation. This process is called rusting and is familiar to any car owner. | Rust is another name for iron oxide, which occurs when iron or an alloy that contains iron, like steel, is exposed to oxygen and moisture for a long period of time. Over time, the oxygen combines with the metal at an atomic level, forming a new compound called an oxide and weakening the bonds of the metal itself. When impure (cast) iron is in contact with water, oxygen, other strong oxidants, or acids, it rusts. If salt is present, for example in seawater or salt spray, the iron tends to rust more quickly, as a result of electrochemical reactions. | That the ratio (iron atoms)/(oxygen atoms) is 4/6, or 2/3, and nothing else is an example of the law of definite proportions. If iron is heated in the presence of less oxygen, it is possible to synthesize another iron oxide, Fe 3 O 4, called magnetite. This is the magnetic loadstone known for centuries as a naturally occurring mineral. It is black in color, and its balanced net synthesis reaction is. |
dispersivity groundwater define | Dispersion is a process that occurs to all constituents dissolved or suspended in groundwater. Dispersion occurs due to the flow and hence only in flowing water, while diffusion occurs irrespective of whether the water is flowing or not. Solute transport is described mathematically by the advection-dispersion equation: | The different flow paths of the water particles cause the mechanical dispersion, a mechanical mixing and dilution of the solute within the bulk movement of groundwater. The numerical value of mechanical dispersion is the product of advective groundwater velocity and the dispersivity. The dispersivity is a characteristic property of the geological medium, and differs in value for each of the spatial components. | Hydrogeology (hydro-meaning water, and-geology meaning the study of the Earth) is the area of geology that deals with the distribution and movement of groundwater in the soil and rocks of the Earth's crust (commonly in aquifers). The term geohydrology is often used interchangeably. | In reality, solute transport in groundwater never occurs solely by advection. Dispersion is the second very important transport mechanism. Dispersion refers to the spreading and mixing caused by molecular diffusion and by the variations in velocity with which water moves at different scales. | The dispersion term is defined as the sum of the mechanical dispersion and the diffusion. Mechanical dispersion is mixing that occurs as a consequence of local variations in velocity around some mean velocity of flow. The mechanical dispersion is calculated as the water velocity multiplied with the dispersivity. |
how much does the average person litter | The average person litters 4.4 pounds a day. 29 pounds a week. And 1,600 pounds a year! That is enough to cover Texas 2.5 times. | Litter Clean-up Costs: Statewide-Beaches: $52.2 million per year: Clean-up costs vary depending on the amount of use, proximity to runoff sources, and terrain types. The City of Santa Monica spends $1.2 million for 3 miles of beachfront and Orange County spends about $350,000 for 6 miles of beachfront. | The average American household produces about 1,600 pounds (726 kg) of garbage per year. Personal garbage can be reduced significantly by recycling. The average American produces an estimated 29 pounds of garbage each week. | 5. 75% of people admitted that they littered in the past 5 years. Not surprising is the fact that people have done this for many years despite many clean-up activities and educational campaigns about proper disposal of litter. | 2. $11.5 billion is spent every year to clean up litter. Half surprising and half expected, this much money could have been used in more pressing and important services like housing and health care. Most people do not really think about how much of their little actions can affect the entire nation’s well-being. |

what temperature should a koi fish tank be | When the temperatures in your koi pond or tank are between 52 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit, you will want to feed your koi an easy to digest food such as one made of wheat germ. You need to change his diet because his digestive system will not be moving very well. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. As a koi owner, it is crucial that you keep your koi's tank or pond at a reasonable temperature. Koi rely on the water temperature to assist with their digestive process and cannot digest food if the water gets too cold. | Temperature Range. According to Koi Acres, a company that sells koi and koi supplies, koi fish are able to survive in water that is anywhere between 34 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Even though koi can survive in extremely cold or very hot water, it does not mean that they do well at these temperatures. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. As a koi owner, it is crucial that you keep your koi's tank or pond at a reasonable temperature. Koi rely on the water temperature to assist with their digestive process and cannot digest food if the water gets too cold. | Step 1 Choosing an Aquarium. (A) Young Koi can be kept in a large aquarium. • Minimum aquarium size should be 29 gallons (110 L). (At least two gallons (8 L) of water for every 1 (3 cm) of fish). • With their large size and fast growth rate, mature Koi should be kept in a large outdoor pond (at least 50 gallons (190 L) of water per Koi). (B) An appropriate aquarium stand will safely support the weight of your filled aquarium | Koi fish can thrive in both indoor and outdoor ponds. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. As a koi owner, it is crucial that you keep your koi's tank or pond at a reasonable temperature. Koi rely on the water temperature to assist with their digestive process and cannot digest food if the water gets too cold. | To determine what, in my opinion, is the maximum safe fish load for your tank or indoor pond, divide the total gallonage by 100. The result is the number of 12-inch koi that can be raised in that volume of water. For example, if you are using a 125-gallon tank, then the safe fish load would be 1.25 12-inch koi. In other words, one 12-inch fish would be fine, but two would be overcrowding. Most common fish health and aquarium/pond maintenance problems can be traced to the unfortunate habit of keeping too many fish in too little water. Consequently, during the past several years I have devised a rule of thumb for determining the maximum koi fish load for a given volume of water (aquarium or pond). |

temp and time to bake chicken | The secret to juicy baked chicken breast? Bake for a short time at a high temperature. Baking for 30 minutes at 350 degrees will yield dry meat. But baking for just 20 minutes at 450 degrees will result in delightfully juicy baked chicken breast, every time. Baked Chicken Breast. | For a whole chicken the temp is always 375 F. depending on the weight changes the time. 2.5 to 3lb = 1hr to 1 hr and 15 minutes 3 to 3.5 lb = 1.15 to 1.30 minutes 3.5 to 4 lb - 1.15 to 1. 45 minutes 4.5 to 5 lb - 1.30 to 2 hours Broiling chicken for half a chicken should be about 38-32 minutes. First get a food thermometer, as it will all depend on the size and thickness of the chicken. Cook it to at least 165 degrees. Any longer than that it might get dry. The thermometer can be used in the oven or on the grill. I usually cook it at 300-350 degrees for twenty to thirty minutes in the oven. | 1 Bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes, flip to the other side, lightly spray/brush again and bake for 8-10 more minutes, or until juices run clear when pierced with a fork (it's fine to make a small slit in the thickest part and see if it's done!). 2 Transfer the baked chicken breasts to a platter. Baking for 30 minutes at 350 degrees will yield dry meat. But baking for just 20 minutes at 450 degrees will result in delightfully juicy baked chicken breast, every time. Baked Chicken Breast. | A 2 1/2 to 3 lb. chicken takes 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes to cook, a 3 to 4 lb. chicken takes between 1 hour and 30 minutes to 1 hour and 45 minutes, and a 4 to 6 lb. chicken between 1 hour and 45 minutes and 2 hours. If you stuff the chicken, add 15 minutes to the cooking time. If you want chicken to cook faster, cut it into pieces and arrange them in a shallow baking dish. Place the chicken into an oven preheated to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake legs, thighs and wings for 35 to 45 minutes and bone-in breasts 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the pieces. | --7-7.5lbs=2 hours/45 minutes=2 hours/30 minutes. NOTE: These times are for unstuffed birds. Add 15 minutes to the total cooking time if you're roasting a stuffed chicken. And as with the chicken itself, make sure the stuffing reaches a temperature of at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). You would use the cooking time for the weight of each chicken. If 1 chicken weighs 3 lbs, you would cook it 1 hour/15 minutes. If the second chicken weighs 5 lbs, you would continue to cook that one 40 minutes longer because it says to cook it 1 hour/55 minutes. |

what is the difference between lymphatic system and immune system | 1 Lymphatic System The lymphatic system comprises a network of lymphatic vessels, lymph nodes, and several other organs, distributed throughout the body as a network. 2 These structures collect fluid called lymph from the body and return it to the blood stream, thus maintaining the body’s fluid balance. The lymphatic system, on the other hand, is an organ system that functions through lymphatic vessels and structures. Furthermore, the lymphatic system is associated with the circulatory system, whereas the immune system is connected to the nervous system as well as the endocrine system. | View full size image. The lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste and other unwanted materials. The primary function of the lymphatic system is to transport lymph, a fluid containing infection-fighting white blood cells, throughout the body. The lymphatic system primarily consists of lymphatic vessels, which are similar to the circulatory system's veins and capillaries. | Best Answer: The lymphatic system is a complex network of lymphoid organs, lymph nodes, lymph ducts, and lymph vessels that produce and transport lymph fluid from tissues to the circulatory system.

The lymphatic system is a major component of the immune system. | The lymphatic system is part of the circulatory system and a vital part of the immune system, comprising a network of lymphatic vessels that carry a clear fluid called lymph (from Latin lympha meaning water) directionally towards the heart. Lymphocytes are concentrated in the lymph nodes. The spleen and the thymus are also lymphoid organs of the immune system. The tonsils are lymphoid organs that are also associated with the digestive system. Lymphoid tissues contain lymphocytes, and also contain other types of cells for support. | The lymphatic system is composed of lymph vessels, lymph nodes, and organs. The functions of this system include the absorbtion of excess fluid and its return to the blood stream, absorption of fat (in the villi of the small intestine) and the immune system function.
