A brief history of diving The first recorded incidence of diving comes from ancient Greece (1), divers jumped into the water carrying a 15kg stone, sank to around 30 metres and cut the sponges away from the sea bed.Sound travels much faster and further in the sea, this confuses the brain and means that sounds can appear to be all around a diver as the brain can only detect distance and direction of sounds by the time difference that they are detected in each ear, as the sounds travel much faster, the brain thinks that the sound must be all around, sounds also travel much further in water that in air, so quiet sounds are amplified and can lead to disorientation.As a diver descends through the water, the pressure increases on their body, a...

After the experiment a significant difference in the amount of precipitated DNA was visible in the strawberry test tube in comparison with the banana.*To make the extraction buffer, 100 ml of shampoo (without conditioner) was mixed with 15 g of NaCl and 900 ml of water.All of the above steps were completed in the same manner for the banana DNA extraction except for the adding of water during the smashing of the fruit.This added even more water based substance to the bag of mashed fruit.This result could have been due to the amount of solution was present in the bag after the strawberry was mashed compared to the amount present in the banana bag.

The group was tasked to take 5 bags of commercially sold tea (caffeinated) and to boil for 5 minutes in water to extract the water soluble materials in the tea leaves into hot water which in this case would be caffeine.The caffeine in tea leaves is highly soluble in water thus it is boiled to be isolated.The collected crude caffeine is washed with ethanol and heated in a water bath until the caffeine has completely dissolved in the ethanol.Through the experiment, caffeine was isolated from commercially sold tea in bags through boiling it in water.The organic layer of CH2Cl2 being more dense than water is the lower layer.

Furthermore, Brita was the first very successful system of water filter, which created the home water purification industry.•The consumers will use the second filter as the first, replacing filters at the same rate.Filters decrease health hazards by low quality tap water (even if not all dangers are eliminated).They positioned most on this benefit for 3 reasons:a) Surveys showed that taste means health, b) whole bottled water industry had been built without reference to health and c) Brita wanted to develop an unbeatable position (“be at the top of the mountain”) which would not be possible by positioning on how much of some impurity is removed.Furthermore there is a strong customer base who will buy new filters for the next years (80% o...

The reflected amount of light is partly polarised horizontally and partly enters the water vertically.The blue color travels across the longest in the water due to its shortest wavelength.Another main concern is related to the water that bends the light either to make crinkle patterns or to diffuse it.Most importantly, the quality of the water controls and influences the filtering properties of the water such as sprinkle of the dust in water.Light attenuation limits the visibility distance, at about twenty meters in clear water and five meters or less in turbid water.
