Mechanical wave Longitudinal waves cause the medium to vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. It consists of multiple compressions and rarefactions. The rarefaction is the farthest distance apart in the longitudinal wave and the compression is the closest distance together.

Middle Ear Infection, Inflammation â Acute, Chronic Otitis Media Causes of Otitis Media. Inflammation in the middle ear is almost always due to an infection. The most common acute infections are viral in origin and linked to an upper respiratory tract. Bacterial infections tend to arise as a superimposed infection following a viral upper respiratory tract infection.

Pneumonia - Cause Viruses, bacteria, a fungus, or (in rare cases) parasites or other organisms can cause pneumonia. 1  In most cases, the specific organism (such as bacteria or virus) cannot be identified even with testing. 2  When an organism is identified, it is usually the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae.

What is a Wave? A Wave Transports Energy and Not Matter. When a wave is present in a medium (that is, when there is a disturbance moving through a medium), the individual particles of the medium are only temporarily displaced from their rest position.There is always a force acting upon the particles that restores them to their original position.n the case of a water wave in the ocean, the medium through which the wave travels is the ocean water. In the case of a sound wave moving from the church choir to the pews, the medium through which the sound wave travels is the air in the room.

- Bacteria or viruses can be responsible for the growth of the infection in the middle ear and resulting symptoms. For acute otitis media, the bacteria to blame for causing the infection are most frequently: 1  Streptococcus pneumonia.

Interference and Beats And as a rarefaction passes through a section of a medium, it tends to push particles apart, thus creating a low-pressure region. The interference of sound waves causes the particles of the medium to behave in a manner that reflects the net effect of the two individual waves upon the particles.

Enzymes That Scavenge Reactive Oxygen Species Are Down-Regulated Prior to Gibberellic Acid-Induced Programmed Cell Death in Barley Aleurone Abstract. Gibberellins (GAs) initiate a series of events that culminate in programmed cell death, whereas abscisic acid (ABA) prevents this process. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key elements in aleurone programmed cell death.Incubation of barley (Hordeum vulgare) aleurone layers in H 2 O 2 causes rapid death of all cells in GA-but not ABA-treated layers. Sensitivity to H 2 O 2 in GA-treated aleurone cells results from a decreased ability to metabolize ROS.bstract. Gibberellins (GAs) initiate a series of events that culminate in programmed cell death, whereas abscisic acid (ABA) prevents this process. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key elements in aleurone programmed cell death.

Introduction to Computer Music: Volume One 3. The speed at which sound propagates (or travels from its source) is directly influenced by both the medium through which it travels and the factors affecting the medium, such as altitude, humidity and temperature for gases like air.

How Do Waves Carry Energy From One Place to Another? Waves, Sound and Light. A mechanical wave is created when a source of energy causes a vibration to travel through a medium. A mechanical wave is a disturbance in matter that carries energy from one place to another. The material through which a wave travels is called a medium. Mechanical waves require a medium to travel through.

- A ray of light ( = 5.9 X 10 -7 meter) traveling in air is incident on an interface with medium X at an angle of 30. o. The angle of refraction for the light ray in medium X is 12. o. Medium X could be 1. alcohol 3. diamond 2. corn oil 4. flint glass 1 32.

Growing Unculturable Bacteria Some microbes are not especially choosy in their requirements for growth, while others, such as Treponema pallidum, the causative agent of syphilis, has never been successfully grown in culture, although scientists have been trying to do so for more than 100 years. Several basic types of media are discussed below.

- 2. Medium is skim milk agar, the skim milk added to the medium cause the agar to appear cloudy and white. 3. Bacteria that break down the casein, produce enzymes that diffuse into the medium, hydrolyze the protein, and cause a zone of clearing around the growth.

- Eventually frost covers all the fans and channels until the next spring when the cycle repeats. 1  Star burst channels caused by escaping CO2 gas, as seen by HiRISE. Such channels, also called spiders, may be about 500 m in diameter and 1 m deep. 2  Spider on the second Martian day of spring, as seen by HiRISE.

Different _______ of light through two separate mediums causes the bending of wave fronts associated with light rays. The different reflections of light through two separate mediums causes the bending of wave fronts associated with light rays. The reflection and refraction is caused by the medium associated with its light rays. This question is archived.

Inflation - Main Causes of Inflation A rise in the rate of VAT would also be a cause of increased domestic inflation in the short term because it increases a firm's production costs. Inflation can also come from external sources, for example a sustained rise in the price of crude oil or other imported commodities, foodstuffs and beverages.

"What Does ""Medium"" Mean in Art?" By Shelley Esaak. Definition: (noun) - In art,  medium  refers to the substance the artist uses to create his or her artwork.For example, the medium Michelangelo used to create David was marble, Calder's stabiles employ painted steel plates and Duchamp's infamous Fountain had porcelain as its medium.or example, the medium Michelangelo used to create David was marble, Calder's stabiles employ painted steel plates and Duchamp's infamous Fountain had porcelain as its medium.

What Causes Pneumonia? 1 Atypical pneumonia is caused by bacteria such as Legionella pneumophila, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Chlamydophila pneumoniae.  Other bacteria that can cause pneumonia include Staphylococcus aureus, Moraxella catarrhalis, Streptococcus pyogenes, Neisseria meningitidis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Haemophilus influenzae.

- Earth is the medium for earthquake waves. Waves that can travel only through a medium are called mechanical waves. Most waves, including water waves, sound waves, and earthquake waves, are mechanical waves. Electromagnetic waves are the most common kind of nonmechanical waves.

- The second, and more common, cause of seat spoilage is the traveller who refuses to part with his baggage. It must be possible to kill these spoilage micro-organisms during freezing. Preservatives retard product spoilage caused by mold, air, bacteria, fungi or yeast.

- Motility medium. This is a semisolid medium that will hold non-motile bacteria in place, but motile microbes can swim through it. The presence of turbidity throughout the tube is a positive test for the presence of motility.n the case of E. coli the peritrichous flagella bunch together and all push from one side. This causes the bacteria to move in a straight line, called a run. When flagella rotate clockwise, they all pull on the microbe. With all these forces pulling in different directions, it causes the bacteria to tumble or twiddle.

What Causes Diffusion? Diffusion is caused when heat in a gas or water environment creates energy that is absorbed by particles, making them move. This is referred to as thermal motion. Each particle moves in a different direction, but the direction changes if the particle hits a solid object or another particle.

- Sound waves traveling through the air or other mediums sometimes affect the objects that they encounter. Recall that sound is caused by the molecules of a medium vibrating. Frequency refers to the number of vibrations that an individual particle makes in a specific period of time, usually a second. Shorter strings have higher frequency and therefore higher pitch. 2  When a musician presses her finger on a string, she shortens its length. 3  The more fingers she adds to the string, the shorter she makes it, and the higher the pitch will be. 4  Diameter is the thickness of the string.

- Best Answer: Convection is caused by differences in air density (due to differences in temperature). Warm, lightweight air rises, while cold, dense air falls. So gravity causes convection when there is a difference in air density (temperature). What Causes Convection. No - mantle convection causes plate movement. Sometimes the plate movement it causes can affect the convection, such as when there is a subduction zone and a large amount of cold light crust is pushed down into the mantle.
