Many metals can be beaten into shape. We say they are malleable.
Gold is the most malleable metal as it can be beaten into very thin gold
leaf. Gold is also the most ductile metal, as it can be pulled into very
fine wire without breaking. Gold was once used to make coins,
but its main use today is in jewellery. Since gold is so prized,
it is called a precious metal. Silver is another beautiful precious metal
that has been used for jewellery since ancient times. However, its main
use today is in photography. Like gold, silver is ductile and malleable.
It is also the best conductor of heat and electricity that we know.

Termitaries, or termite mounds which are made from soil and clay, are big
in size. ln the middle of a mound, there is the royal chamber where the queen
lives. lt is where she eats and breeds and does little else. Above the royal
chamber is the fungus garden that contains fungus plants that help nourish
the millions of inhabitants. Another part of the termitary is the chimneys. These
are vertical tubes within the mound that allow hot, moist air to rise and cool
the entire colony. Galleries are horizontal linking passages that connect up
the fungus gardens, access tunnels and royal chamber. There are also tiny
porous entry holes that draw air in to be circulated through the sump for cooling
and humidification. The lowest, coolest and most damp parts of the nest
are the cellars or sumps.

When a virus lands on the cell wall of a bacterium, the tail of the virus injects
genetic material into the bacterium. The bacterium makes copies of the virus's
genetic material and protein coating. Parts of the new viruses then come together.
The bacterial cell breaks open, releasing new viruses.

material?

A young boy's ear has been bitten off by a dog. Re-attachment of the ear
is viable, but an adequate blood supply is vital to its survival. The surgeons
re-attach the ear using microsurgical techniques. However, the blood supply is still
compromised, and the tissues could perish. A leech is applied to the ear
to feed on the blood and maintain circulation, keeping the tissues alive.
This allows time for the ear's vessels to re-establish. Several months after surgery
the ear is healthy. The unique properties of the leech ensure that the operation
is a success in the long term.

ln a study, it was found that women who binged on French fries once
a week had a 21o/o more chance of developing diabetes than those who
ate none. lt was also found that eating five servings of potatoes per
week - fried, mashed or baked - increased the risk by 14o/o ovar those
Potatoes breakdown quickly in our stomachs and create a fast, steep blood
sugar rise. When this happens too frequently, our insulin-regulating system may
be damaged, leading to diabetes. Overweight women are even more likely
to get diabetes from potato intake.
