Dispersing Agents Prevent Negative Impact of Oil on Uptake of Zinc by Duckweed (Lemna minor)
Oil spills have had extremely negative effects on the environment. The oil directly coats both animal and plant species living in and around the water, rendering these organisms unable to…
Does Music Directly Affect a Person’s Heart Rate?
Music can have a profound effect on a person’s body, in that it may cause people to dance and move around, but does it have a direct and significant effect…
Comparing the Voltage Output of Water in Drop and Flow Form Using a Piezoelectric Sensor and Hydroelectric Turbine
Due to the harmful effects of broadly used energy sources, alternative energy sources have been widely studied. One area of interest is transferring kinetic water energy in nature, as in…
Mapping QTLs for Popping Ability in a Popcorn × Dent Maize Genetic Cross
Corn (maize, Zea mays L.) is one of the world’s most economically important grain crops. When exposed to heat, its starch-filled kernels pop and cook into puffs. The high demand…
The Development and Maximization of a Novel Photosynthetic Microbial Fuel Cell Using Rhodospirillum rubrum
This study analyzes the potential viability of the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum for producing electricity via microbial fuel cell (MFC), as prior research has not investigated this capacity. A prototype…
Ant colony optimization algorithms with multiple simulated colonies offer potential advantages for solving the traveling salesman problem and, by extension, other optimization problems
The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is a classic problem in optimization, frequently used for measuring the performance of optimization algorithms. The goal in solving the TSP is to determine the…
