Not exact matches

If slightly smaller, gravity would be less, causing surface water and oxygen to escape and again making the earth barren of life.

What was also very interesting about the study was that increased mitochondrial efficiency of the cell (needing less oxygen), apparently is owed to the lower levels of proteins... proteins that normally make the mitochondria «leaky» and inefficient.

Hypoxia (lack of oxygen) makes it MORE likely that a infant will try to breath, not less.

The bonds in saturated fats are also more stable, making them less likely to go rogue and bond to oxygen and end up rancid (store an open jar of natural peanut butter at the back of the shelf for a few months, sniff it, and you'll see what I mean).

Chan says that lighter warm water creates a cap over the colder depths, making it less likely that deeper waters — where everything from «plankton to whale poop» sucks up oxygen — will rise to mix with the oxygenated surface.

The hydrogen replaces oxygen in the acids and other compounds in the bio-oils and makes them less corrosive, and the zeolites break the large hydrocarbons into compounds such as toluene and benzene that are commonly used building blocks for a large number of industrial chemicals.

To make matters worse, German and Japanese researchers recently increased CO2 levels in seawater and found that the greenhouse gas can damage some marine organisms directly: Squid slowly asphyxiated as the excess CO2 crowded out oxygen in their blood, and fish embryos and larvae were abnormally small and less likely to survive.

They found that soluble iron in the earliest oceans quickly combined with oxygen to form rust — forming reactive oxygen molecules, which damage biological tissue and make the cyananobacteria grow more slowly and produce less oxygen.

By measuring the size of the largest raindrop imprints (inset) in ash that solidified soon after an eruption 2.7 billion years ago (pocked slab, main image) and comparing them to the imprints made by drops of various sizes and momentums in lab tests, the team estimates that the density of Earth's oxygen - free atmosphere 2.7 billion years ago most likely ranged between 50 % and 108 % of today's air and was certainly less than twice its modern density — a thickness insufficient to offset the dimness of the sun at the time.

The researchers are now working to make their oxygen evolution catalyst more efficient and less expensive, as well as teasing out the physics of what makes the material work so well.

«If you want to make hydrogen and oxygen, you have to put in energy, and the more you put in, the less commercially viable it is,» he said.

In warming areas that grow boggier every year, this might mean ensuring that there is enough oxygen - rich moving water, which would make the area less hospitable to anaerobic microbes that belch large quantities of methane.
