He arranged element in order of increasing atomic weight ,thus every element falls naturally into its correct group .

Was it not in order of increasing atomic NUMBER, like the modern periodic table? Mendeleev ordered the elements in order of atomic weight.

It stores bile which is made in the liver. Bile emulsifies lipids. That's all I know of

Water molecules stick together due to H-bonding forming a continuous chain
of water molecules. Transpiration ‘pulls’ the column of water upwards (not sure if thats right)

A theory is a presumption based on observation. A principle is a theory which has been proven many times through experimentation over a long period of time. Biology; Distinguish between red and yellow marrow. WHOOP WHOOP!!! 100th post!!!!!!

red bone marrow contains platelets and red blood cells. Yellow bone marrow contains fat cells.


Biology: DNA isolation experiment
1. What was the 1st step carried out and why?
2. What was the purpose of the ethanol?

Is a hypothesis not a presumption based on observation? A theory, according to my teacher, is a hypothesis proved to be true over time through replicates and more research etc.

Correct me if I'm wrong, bit confused now.... :rolleyes:

Yep a hypothesis is an educated guess based on an observation.

A theory is a hypothesis that has seems to be true over a period of testing and replication but theory can still be proven wrong that's the difference between a theory and a law.
Like the evolution theory, we don't know it's an absolute fact cos obviously we weren't there and therefore it's a theory.

A bacteriophage?

New question.. Umm..
History: how would you describe Cumann na nGaedheal's attitude towards exports and trade in the years 1922-1932? (i.e. their economic policy regarding them)

aarond280

is it bacteriophage ?

BrownBear11

Well played lads

Didn't do that topic in history... Unfortunately, seems pretty interesting

Yay, history!

Well, they continued free trade with the UK (which made up over 90% of the Free State's trade) and they continued using the sterling. The agricultural sector was focused on as it was Ireland's largest export, and tax on farmers was cut.

Is that detailed enough?

Keeping to what I know, dare I copy your question but change it to the economic/social policies of Fianna Fáil during 1932-39?
