Vegetable oils are unsaturated because they contain lots of carbon-carbon double bonds. If we react them with hydrogen at 60oC in the presence of nickel catalyst they will become saturated, also called ha...

To find the gradient of the tangent, we can differentiate to give dy/dx=3x^2+9. We can now put in x=2 to find the gradient at (2,1): 3(2)^2+9=21. Therefore the gradient is 21 at (2,1).

First bring all the x terms to one side by taking 5x from each side, this gives 2x-4=8. Now put all the number terms on the other side by adding 4 to each side, this gives 2x=12. We can now divide both si...

Myelination is the production of a myelin sheath - a fatty, electrically insulating layer formed by Schwann cells wrapping around the axons of neurons. This sheath is not continuous, there are gaps betwee...
