Biotechnology: Principles and processes   What is biotechnology? Biotechnology refers to the technology using biology, which has applications in agriculture, food processing industry, medicine diagnostics, bioremediation, waste treatment, and energy production. The European Federation of Biotechnology (EFB) defines biotechnology as “the integration of natural science and organisms, cells, parts thereof and molecular analogues for products and services”. Basis of Modern Biotechnology Genetic engineering − Introduction of foreign genetic material (DNA/RNA) into the…

It is one of the primitive branches of engineering which have remained always in demand and continue to be in the future. This is why mechanical trade is called as an Evergreen trade (branch). Mechanical engineers have always been needed as an essential staff personnel in various industries of both public and private sector. Their work criteria change according to the type and domain of the company they are working with.As the Industrial sector has drastically risen in…

Genetics Genetics is a branch of biology dealing with inheritance and variation of characters from parents of offspring. Inheritance Process by which characters are passed on from parent to progeny Variation Degree by which the progeny differs from its parents Mendel’s Experiments Gregor Johann Mendel known as the father of genetics proposed the laws of inheritance. He used garden pea as his sample. Large sampling size gave credibility to his collected data.…

Theory   Unit 1: Vital Statistics Meaning Vital statistics are numerical records, analysis, and interpretation of numerical data of vital events occurring in the human population. By vital events, we mean the events of human life such as birth, death, sickness, marriage, migration, divorce, adoption, separation etc. Demography The study of human population is called demography. Methods of obtaining Vital Statistics Registration method: under this method, vital events such as births, marriages,…

Unilateral Z-Transform. The unilateral z-transform of an arbitrary signal is defined as. When the unilateral z-transform is applied to find the transfer function of an LTI system, it is always assumed to be causal, and the ROC is always the exterior of a circle.

Notes on Thermodynamics The topic for the last part of our physics class this quarter will be thermodynam- ics. Thermodynamics deals with energy transfer processes. The key idea is that materials have ”internal energy”. The internal energy is the energy that the atoms and molecules of the material possess. For example, in a gas and liquid the molecules are moving and have kinetic energy. The molecules can also rotate and vibrate, and…

Properties Of Gases ¾ In thermodynamics we distinguish between a) perfect gases b)Ideal gases c) real gases ¾ The equation pV/T= constant was derived assuming that /T= constant Molecules of a gas are point masses ¾ There are no attractive nor repulsive forces between the molecules ¾ Perfect gas is one which obeys the above equation
