Five mice in a stable population of 500 are intentionally infected with a contagious disease to test a theory of epidemic spread that postulates the rate of change in the infected population is proportional to the product of the number of mice who have the disease with the number that are disease free. Assuming the theory is correct, how long will it take half the population to contract the disease?

Environmental Consequences of Fossil Fuel Use

Fossil fuels are organic materials found inside the earth's surface. They are mainly composed of dead remains of plants and animals. The primary component constituents of fossil fuels are carbon and hydrogen, which are usually burnt to produce energy. Fossil fuels are believed to be formed millions of years ago when dead remains of animals and plants were subjected to high heat and pressure.
