This is a subordinate clause. In particular, the phrase “as long as we continue to see progress” is subordinate in this sentence. That’s because it cannot stand on its own. The first part of the sentence could stand on its own: you can keep your privileges. This implies that someone has done something that could get them taken away, but the person who decides that is not ...

The second half of this equation is “6H2O + 6CO2 + ATP”. However, photosynthesis to respiration would read “6CO2 + 6H2O + LIGHT ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6H2O + 6CO2 + ATP”. Every living thing does the cellular respiration part (from C6H12O6 forward). However, only plants do the first part with light, which we call photosynthesis. It’s actually pretty incredible; ...

That makes it look like a star.
In this system, if one of the ...

Genes are the simple genetic code that hides in the nuclei of the cells within living organisms. They are made up of four nucleic acids: adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine. They always pair up, and the pairs never change, though which side of the DNA they’re on can. Adenine will always pair up with thymine. Cytosine will always pair up with guanine.
This can change slightly ...

The urinary system cleans your blood. Fun fact, this is the only system that is equipped for the job. This is because the blood carries food and alcohol around the body once it has been completely broken down. The kidney cleanses the used food particles out so the blood can continue to work through the body. To produce a quart of urine, the kidneys have to filter about 120 quarts of blood. ...

To solve this problem, the easiest way is to take the initial amount and subtract $550 (or the deductible and the surgery copay). This leaves you with $3,809.00. This is a distinctly American issue, though, since insurance companies demand incredible discounts on the services a hospital or doctor’s office provides. In other parts of the world, the government takes on a bulk of the cost ...
