Memorandum

Opdrag 7:

(a) - (b) Hirosjima en Tsjernobil: Aanvaar die leerders se verslae. Sorg dat korrekte statistieke uiteindelik in die klas bymekaar gemaak is, bv. Tsjernobil 250 mense gesterf, tussen 5 000 en 40 000 sal uiteindelik sterf weens kanker deur bestraling.

1. Leerders se eie mening. Geld kan nie alles koop nie, ook nie gesondheid nie.

2. Nee. ‘n Ongeluk kan bestraling veroorsaak. Baie mense kan sterf. Verwys na Hirosjima en Tsjernobil.

3. Enige plek waar kernmateriaal is, bv. by ‘n kernkragsentrale of selfs op die omheining van die perseel. Dit beteken wees versigtig, kernmateriaal in die omgewing.

Inhoud

Aktiwiteit: om kernkrag as 'n metode vir die opwekking van energie te kan bespreek [lo 2.3, lo 3.2]

  • Die enigste kernkragsentrale in Afrika is naby Kaapstad geleë. Die Koeberg-kernkragsentrale voorsien 1 840 megawatt, wat sowat 6,5 % van Suid-Afrika se elektrisiteitsbehoeftes uitmaak. Sedert 1984 het Koeberg 81 000 miljoen kWh elektrisiteit gelewer en in dié periode 7,5 ton uraan gebruik.
  • Dit is baie duur om hierdie tipe kragsentrales te bou en die opwekking van elektrisiteit d.m.v. kernkrag is ‘n uiters gevaarlike proses. By Koeberg word Uraan 235 as brandstof gebruik. Uraan is ‘n grys metaalagtige element wat radioaktief is. Mense wat by kernkragsentrales werk, moet spesiale klere dra om die risiko van bestraling teen te werk. Dik betonmure word ook rondom die reaktors waar die kernkrag geproduseer word, gebou om mense te beskerm teen die skadelike bestraling wat o.a. kanker kan veroorsaak.
  • Die afvalstof wat tydens die proses ontstaan, is baie giftig en kan selfs vir honderde jare ‘n bestralingsgevaar inhou. Van die minder gevaarlike radioaktiewe afval word in verseëlde houers diep onder die grond begrawe. Daar is egter nog nie ‘n aanvaarbare manier gevind om van die hoëvlak radioaktiewe afval ontslae te raak nie.
  • “Greenpeace” is ‘n organisasie wat baie sterk gekant is teen die gebruik van kernkrag om elektrisiteit op te wek.
  • Daar is egter ook voordele verbonde aan kernkrag. ‘n Ontsaglike hoeveelheid energie kan verkry word uit ‘n kleinerige hoeveelheid brandstof (uraan).

Vind self meer uit oor:

(a) Die kernbom wat in 1945 tydens die Tweede Wêreldoorlog op die Japanese stede Hirosjima en Nagasaki gegooi is.

(b) Die ongeluk wat op 25 April 1986 by die kernkragsentrale Tsjernobil in die Sowjetunie plaasgevind het.

BEANTWOORD:

1. Sal jy bereid wees om by ‘n kernkragsentrale te werk, sakke vol geld te verdien, maar die moontlikheid van bestraling in die gesig te staar? Verduidelik.

How bacteria create energy to survive?
Muhamad Reply
Bacteria doesn't produce energy they are dependent upon their substrate in case of lack of nutrients they are able to make spores which helps them to sustain in harsh environments
_Adnan
But not all bacteria make spores, l mean Eukaryotic cells have Mitochondria which acts as powerhouse for them, since bacteria don't have it, what is the substitution for it?
Muhamad
they make spores

explain assimilatory nitrate reduction
Esinniobiwa Reply
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products
