...Name Instructor Course Date Dark Nebulae Dark nebulae are nonluminous nebulae that are observable since it obscures light from other sources. Nebulae are diffuse clouds of interstellar dust and gas. The shape, size, and characteristics of nebulae may vary significantly because some are the remains of dead stars and others are star nurseries. Dark nebulae are found in areas with no nearby stars. These clouds do not emit or reflect enough light for them to be visible. In fact, the view from the stars behind them is usually blotted out by the dust particles. This paper will exclusively explore on dark nebulae. Normally, these clouds range from 1-10 AU and are less dense than the deepest vacuum in the laboratories of the Earth. They are also thick such that they obscure light from the stars behind them. However, the size of these clouds can be from a few light years up to 600 light years. Additionally, the total mass of dark nebulae can reach several million masses of solar. These clouds can appear to be big depending on the number of stars in it. If there are many stars, the clouds will appear huge, but it can appear small if there are a few stars in it. These clouds existed from a long time ago. Claudius Ptolemaeus did the first record of stars that appeared to be nebulous around 150 AD. Since then, many astronomers have continued discovering these clouds until an American astronomer Beverly Turner Lynds compiled and published a survey of dark nebulas in the year 1960. However...

...of archetypes contributes to the overall strength of the novel. During when the various times the “light vs dark” archetypes are utilized and when the archetypical death and rebirth occurs to convey the extent of which the novel is strengthened by archetypes. In Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 the light vs dark archetype helps show to what extent archetypes are used to strengthen the novel when Montag is conversing with Clarisse after Mildred began reading her script. The author states “He felt his body divide itself into a hotness and a coldness, a softness and a hardness, a trembling and a not trembling, the two halves grinding one upon another.”{Bradbury 21}. In this passage Bradbury is showing that inside Montag the light and dark are warring against each other. As light vs dark are opposites the author uses opposites to show the relationship between the two, for example the comparison between cold and hot, the cold represents the dark as darkness is inherently cold as light provides heat. The two parts grinding against each other show to the light and dark at war, as they at odds at one other. Since they cannot coexist the light and dark in this situation refer to the Montag, in that they are his struggle to free himself from the ignorance that is his societal beliefs. The author also states when Clarisse and Montag walk to her house, "When they reached her house all its lights were blazing" (Bradbury 7}. As this may come across as insignificant, in actuality it shows that as...

...Hawthorne’s Characters Nathanial Hawthorne’s book The Scarlet Letter has a lot of light and dark references. I myself didn’t really enjoy the book, but I learned a lot from it. I recommend this book if you like to read books about the Puritan times. You can also learn a lot about the dress and style. The Scarlet Letter is a well know novel that a lot of people enjoy. Throughout the novel, Hawthorne uses the symbols of light and dark to depict good and evil among the characters Hester Prynne, Arthur Dimmesdale, and Roger Chillingworth. The light portrays on Hester because she helps the homeless and the dark portrays on Hester because the sunshine will not fall on her. “She cares for and attends to the spiritual needs of her fellow human beings” (SparkNotes Editors). Eventually towards the end of the book Hester has light portraying on her because after moving away she comes back and becomes a seamstress again and she also helps her fellow people spiritually. Hester is still reminded of her sin, in a way her sin is gone because she has confessed for so long and she helps her people in need. Hawthorne stated “The...

...Drinking beer is a favorite past-time, whether for the variety of types, or the history, or just enjoying an ice-cold mug of brew with your friends. People want to know what makes a light lager light, and what makes a dark lager dark? Is it the ingredients in the brew or is it how it’s made? Light lagers only came about around the 60’s and 70’s because people wanted to drink beer without getting fat. Basically light lagers are made from using less hops and barley in the brewing process and watering down the lager, essentially creating a lighter color and less filling beer. Almost every beer is either ale or a lager. Lagers are fermented at colder temperatures than ales. They tend to have cleaner, crispier flavors and tamper-down aromas. When it comes to the color though, it comes down to the Maillard reaction. The Maillard reaction came around in the late 1800’s by the work of a French chemist known as Louis-Camille Maillard. This reaction is one of the most important reactions to know in how lager looks different from an amber or a stout beer. This reaction may also be known as “browning” in the brewing world. It’s basically heating sugar until the sugar compound is by itself and having amino acids react the reducing sugar. It is to be known that the reaction only happens at elevated temperatures but it can happen at room temperatures as well. Caramelization has similarities to the Maillard reaction as well which gives beer its final color. Color that a lager or ale is measured...

...In the beginning there was only light. No one was around and nothing existed except for light, of course. Then out of the void came Calida and Deniz. Calida was the element of fire whereas Deniz was the element of water. Although even though they were complete opposites the two were best friends that rarely argued. However, they had one intense argument that lead to the end of their friendship. Nobody really knows what the argument was about but many believe the conflict ended with Deniz putting out Calida’s flame. In anger both of the former friends created new friends from the light, Avani and Aria. Avani was the element of earth and Aria was the wind element. Right from the start Avani and Aria hated each other because Avani was Calida’s friend while Aria was Deniz’s friend. They were enemies even though the natural elements they represent did not clash in any way. From then on out there was nothing but chaos. With their elements they divided the light into two separating it with walls of fire, long rivers, wing storms, and mountains. As all of this war going on the light began to get agitated and started to create more. The most important thing that was created was darkness. A half of the light that hasn’t been taken over turned ravens black....

...Macbeth: Illuminating a Path of Darkness Macbeth is a dark play. Unlike many of Shakespeare’s other works there is no comedic break from the relentless bloodshed. This could cause some readers to turn away from the story. But the play’s portrayal of darkness and evil is consistent with the Bible. In fact, watching or reading the story unfold, with the theme of darkness laced throughout, reminds audiences of the truth of John 3:19 “the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” Macbeth's first mention of darkness comes when King Duncan names his son Malcolm as his heir - thus blocking Macbeth’s ascension to the throne. As Macbeth himself notes: “that is a step On which I must fall down, or else o'erleap, For in my way it lies.” With murderous thoughts on the rise, he asks darkness to cover his evil. “Stars, hide your fires; Let not light see my black and deep desires:” Lady Macbeth wishes a similar wish when she pleads: “Come, thick night, And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,...

...Dark skinned and light skinned blacks have battled each other since the American slavery era; this division has fueled African-American cultural movements, societal achievements, and economic systems. Light skinned blacks have undoubtedly maintained the hypothetical lead, receiving the upper hand in American slavery and the post Reconstruction era. However, dark skinned blacks made slight gains from the 1920’s to the 1960’s. In order to further assert white dominance, slaveholders annihilated African ethnic identities. Slaves were instead classified them as tools to be used by whites in any way whites saw fit. Consequently, racial miscegenation between Caucasians and African slaves became a common component of slave culture. In order to obstruct...

...Grendel's claw and holds on as tightly as he can. Grendel is just imagining being home, but he could not even budge with Beowulf's grip. Eventually he rips from Beowulf's grasp and flees leaving behind his arm. The people had seen the battle because they were awoken by Grendel's screams, but they felt helpless in the situation. Although they did not participate they were still able to praise Beowulf on his victory. Beowulf and the people rejoice over the arm in the light of day. This story symbolizes light and darkness very clearly. Grendel is this dark monster coming to Heorot in the darkest time of the day, while Beowulf is awaiting his arrival in the light, and he is heroic person and the light is always shining upon him. The dark and gruesome battle is happening in the dark, and they rejoice the victory in the light of day. 3 ) Grendel the scary monster went to Heorot in the dark of the night to attack. When he arrived he believed everyone would be in a dark sleep. "Then he stopped, seeing the hall Crowded with sleeping warriors" (line 409-10). He first ate one warrior. "Ripped him apart, cut his body to bits with powerful jaws, drank the blood from his veins, and bolted him down, hands and feet; death" (line 422-25). Then he reached for Beowulf who he thought was in a deep sleep but Beowulf surprised him and grabbed his arm so tightly. All Grendel wanted was to go home. "Grendel's one thought was to run from Beowulf...

...from this incident could be why does the plant grow towards the window? The hypothesis is reasoning behind this growth pattern such as the plant may respond to the light which they need to make their food. At this point a prediction can be assessed. If it is true the plants respond to the light, growing three plants under the light and three plants in the dark is sufficient for collecting data about soil nutrients, leaf color, number of leaves and blossoms, length of stem, and which direction the plant is leaning or growing. After conducting the data, the soil nutrients did not change significantly in any pots. Surprisingly the plants in the dark grew much more than the plants in the light, while the plants in the light produced a flower unlike the plants in the dark. The plants in the light grew straight up tall, and the plants in the dark trailed over the side of their pots. This experiment produced many relations between the plants and the light they need to grow however it does not fully explain which direction the plant grows due to light ("The Scientific Method", 1996). Following the steps for the scientific method in real-life situations can assist in drawing a logical conclusion to an enquiry. For example, an individual is sitting in their house and the lights begin to flicker. After a few moments the lights flicker and then completely go out, but the clock beside the bed is still...

...Hishamudin Life Science Lab Report. Section 808 Photosynthesis. 19th of October 2012. Introduction Definition: Photosynthesis is the physico-chemical process by which plants, algae and photosynthetic bacteria use light energy to drive the synthesis of organic compounds. In plants, algae and certain types of bacteria, the photosynthetic process results in the release of molecular oxygen and the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere that is used to synthesize carbohydrates (oxygenic photosynthesis) Whitmarsh, John. "THE PHOTOSYNTHETIC PROCESS." Life Science. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Oct. 2012. <http://www.life.illinois.edu/govindjee/paper/gov.html>. Photosynthesis equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy C6H12O6 + 6O2 Light reaction: The light reaction happens in the thylakoid membrane and converts to chemical energy from light energy. Therefore, this reaction must take place in the light. Chlorophyll and several other pigments like beta carotene are organized in clusters in the thylakoid membrane and are involved in the light reaction. Dark reaction: The dark reaction occurs in the stroma, inside the chloroplast, and converts carbon dioxide to sugar. Although this reaction does not need light energy for it to take place, it does need ATP and NADPH. Dark reaction also includes the “Calvin cycle,” where carbon dioxide and the energy from ATP are used to make sugar. Chloroplast structure: An outer and inner membrane. Inside the inner membrane is a mix of enzymes and water...

...Life has its light and dark moments, but sometimes it feel like those dark moments overpower the light and happy ones. It seems like no matter what we try to do, it doesn’t get any better. If anything, it feels like it only got worse. However, even in the darkest of times, light can creep into our lives. That little bit of light can be just enough for someone to latch onto for hope. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix was directed by David Yates with Warner Bros. Pictures helping market the film. This magic-filled 138 minute-long movie stars Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter; along with Emma Watson playing Hermione Granger and Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley. This movie was rated PG-13 due to intense violence and some images in the movie, though not graphic, may be too extreme for a younger audience. Based off of the author J.K. Rowling’s critically acclaimed Harry Potter series, this movie adaptation brings her fifth book to life. As the rest of the Harry Potter movies have started, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix begins in the muggle world with Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) living with the Dursleys; it starts at an empty playground where Harry is tormented by his cousin Dudley. Everything seems okay for the both of them until the scenery changes into something like a horror movie. Harry and Dudley are attacked by a couple of rogue dementors in a tunnel, leaving Harry with only one way to defend himself and Dudley; with magic. News of this arrives at the Ministry...

Dark matter makes up about 24% of the universe and normal matter only makes up 4%. Even though the quarter of the universe is made up of dark matter, they are one of the most elusive particles to detect. They do not emit or absorb any light like a normal matter, making them invisible in dark space.

...other words, plants do not grow from absorbing nutrients from the soil, but they also use the process of photosynthesis to make food. Plants “breath in” carbon dioxide (a raw material for photosynthesis) through small openings in their leaves, called stomata. Stomata are responsible delivering carbon dioxide to mesophyll cells. The roots of plants absorb water into a vascular tissue, which travels up to the plant’s leaves. Then the water and carbon dioxide diffuse into chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are the organelles that carry out photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are responsible for giving leaves their green color. This is because chlorophyll, the green pigment found in chloroplasts, is produced because of the sunlight, which absorbs all colors of light but green. Other plant pigments, called carotenoids, are energy-capturing molecules that...
