History. Science Digest was first published in January 1937 [1] in an 8 x 5 inch digest size format of about 100 pages. [2] First edited by G.W. Stamm, [1] it was targeted at persons with a high school education level. [1] It contained short articles about general science often excerpted from other publications in the style of Reader's Digest. [1]
Ninth grade. Ninth grade (also 9th grade or grade 9) is the ninth or tenth year of formal or compulsory education in some countries. It is generally part of middle school or secondary school depending on country. Students in ninth grade are usually 14–15 years old, but in some countries are 15–16.
Science is a systematic discipline that builds and organises knowledge in the form of testable hypotheses and predictions about the world. [1] [2] Modern science is typically divided into two or three major branches: [3] the natural sciences (e.g., physics, chemistry, and biology), which study the physical world; and the behavioural sciences (e.g., economics, psychology, and sociology), which ...
In 2010, a golden spiral ring was found on the banks of the Tollense. In June 2011, a similar one was found, 2.9 cm (1.1 in) long and weighing 10 g. The material was identified by X-ray diffraction as tin. These findings are of special importance because of their rarity and because tin was vitally needed for making bronze. [18]

Anaerobic digestion is a sequence of processes by which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen. [1] The process is used for industrial or domestic purposes to manage waste or to produce fuels. Much of the fermentation used industrially to produce food and drink products, as well as home fermentation, uses ...
Digestion. Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food compounds into small water-soluble components so that they can be absorbed into the blood plasma. In certain organisms, these smaller substances are absorbed through the small intestine into the blood stream. Digestion is a form of catabolism that is often divided into two processes ...
In N-glycosylation for eukaryotes, the oligosaccharide substrate is assembled right at the membrane of the endoplasmatic reticulum. [9] For prokaryotes, this process occurs at the plasma membrane. In both cases, the acceptor substrate is an asparagine residue.
