There are several reasons as to why the top ten inventions in this powerpoint<br />
have drastically improved and enhanced our lives. The Lightbulb was the<br />
foundation of all technological advancements. Without this invention, many<br />
others that govern our lives today would not have been possible. Soon, with<br />
the television, camera, GPS, telephone, and internet, the means of<br />
communication, travel, and networking around the world drastically<br />
expanded. More specially, travel of goods and people expanded to large<br />
distances with the invention of automobiles and airplanes. Moreover,<br />
refrigeration has finally allowed the travel of foods oversees between<br />
countries. Xray/MRI/CT Scan technologies have revolutionized the medical<br />
research and treatment. A more reliable diagnosis as well as better<br />
prosthetic limbs can be designed for a patient. This powerpoint further<br />
explores the benefits and purposes of each of these inventions that have<br />
been constantly improved upon over time. Without such inventions, life<br />
would be quite different in the present time.
