different types of oak trees
|
<P> Oaks have spirally arranged leaves, with lobate margins in many species; some have serrated leaves or entire leaves with smooth margins. Many deciduous species are marcescent, not dropping dead leaves until spring. In spring, a single oak tree produces both male flowers (in the form of catkins) and small female flowers. The common name oak may also appear in the names of species in related genera, notably Lithocarpus. The genus is native to the Northern Hemisphere, and includes deciduous and evergreen species extending from cool temperate to tropical latitudes in the Americas, Asia, Europe, and North Africa. <P> Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. Many Americans have oak trees in their yards, but some have no idea which oak species it is. According to Savatree, around 400 oak species exist. However, according to the United States Geological Survey, only 60 are native to North America <P> Oak is the most common name for trees listed in the genus Quercus. There are a few species that exhibit a shrub type growth form instead of a tree form. There are both deciduous and evergreen species and some are semi-evergreen. Currently there are approximately 600 different species listed in the Quercus (Oak) genus. The tree name Oak is also used for the common names of some species in related genera, especially those listed in the Lithocarpus genus. <P> Most Common Oak Trees. Below is a list of oak tree types that are the most commonly planted. You’ll find that most oaks are massive in size and not suitable for urban or suburban landscapes. 1 It has an unusual branch structure and deeply furrowed bark that combine to keep the tree interesting in winter. 2 It grows further north and west than other white oak types. 3 Willow Oak (Q. phellos) – The willow oak has thin, straight leaves similar to those of a willow tree. <P> Water Oak. The water oak tree is a largely southern species, growing mostly in the upper regions of Florida and across Georgia, South Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas. Water oaks feature thin bark that closely resembles peeling paint, while its leaves are teardrop-shaped and smooth with no pointed lobes. Many Americans have oak trees in their yards, but some have no idea which oak species it is. According to Savatree, around 400 oak species exist. However, according to the United States Geological Survey, only 60 are native to North America <P> Submit. North America is home to many oak trees. Oaks are easily distinguished by their lobed leaves and their unique seeds, the acorns. Acorns are hard, round seeds that can range, depending on the tree, climate and location, from 3/4 inch in diameter to over 1 inch in diameter. Acorns are rounded with a sharp tip. Their trunks can be several feet in diameter. The bark of the white oak is ashen-gray or white. On younger trees, the bark is scaly or platy, but older trees can have smooth areas of bark. White oak is most common at the east of the Mississippi river. <P> Image by ollirg. By Jackie Carroll. Oaks (Quercus) come in many sizes and shapes, and you’ll even find a few evergreens in the mix. Whether you are looking for the perfect tree for your landscape or want to learn to identify the different types of oak trees, this article can help. 1 It has an unusual branch structure and deeply furrowed bark that combine to keep the tree interesting in winter. 2 It grows further north and west than other white oak types. 3 Willow Oak (Q. phellos) – The willow oak has thin, straight leaves similar to those of a willow tree. <P> By Steve Nix. The term oak can be used as part of the common name of any of about 400 species of oak trees and shrubs in the genus Quercus (from Latin oak tree). <P> 1. Differentiate oak trees from other species. Oaks, which all fall under the genus (Quercus) are wide-spread trees found in temperate climates the world over. There are over 600 known species of Oak, with 55 found in the continental United States. With over sixty different oak species in the U.S alone and hundreds more across the globe, it can be challenging to identify oak leaves. To help narrow down a specific tree, they can be distinguished into two basic categories by leaf shape alone: red oaks and white oaks.

what do waves do
|
<P> Mechanical Waves are waves which propagate through a material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a wave speed which depends on the elastic and inertial properties of that medium. There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves. <P> Radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves can be longer than a football field or as short as a football. Radio waves do more than just bring music to your radio. They also carry signals for your television and cellular phones. The antennae on your television set receive the signal, in the form of electromagnetic waves, that is broadcasted from the television station. It is displayed on your television screen. Cable companies have antennae or dishes which receive waves broadcasted from your local TV stations. <P> 1.Wash your hair out. 2.Put some wave grease in your hair(YOUR CHOICE) 3.Then brush your hair for 10 minutes 4.After that put some Olive oil 5.Brush your hair for 5 … minutes 6.Put wave cap on for 30 minutes or overnight. OR 1. Wash your hair out with shampoo in the shower <P> After the wave has gone, the particles of the substance are back where they started but energy has been carried by the wave from its origin (where it begins) to its destination (where it finishes). One type of wave (an electromagnetic wave) does not need any substance to get from its origin to its destination. It can travel through a vacuum (nothing). Electromagnetic waves can travel from stars to planets through empty space (space is a vacuum). Waves transmit energy without transmitting matter. This means that waves can move energy (or information) from one place to another without moving any substance (stuff) from one place to another. The amount of energy that a wave has depends on its amplitude. <P> A wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium from one location to another location. Consider a slinky wave as an example of a wave. When the slinky is stretched from end to end and is held at rest, it assumes a natural position known as the equilibrium or rest position. Ocean waves can only bring energy to the shore; the particles of the medium (water) simply oscillate about their fixed position. As such, water does not pile up on the beach. 5. A medium is able to transport a wave from one location to another because the particles of the medium are ____. <P> In physics, a wave is an oscillation accompanied by a transfer of energy that travels through space or mass. Frequency refers to the addition of time. Wave motion transfers energy from one point to another, which may or may not displace particles of the medium —that is, with little or no associated mass transport. Waves consist, instead, of oscillations or vibrations (of a physical quantity), around almost fixed locations. <P> Mechanical waves require a medium (substance) to travel in, other waves do not. For example, sound is a mechanical wave and require a medium (air, water, etc.), light is n … ot a mechanical wave and does not require a medium. 3 people found this useful. 2.Put some wave grease in your hair(YOUR CHOICE) 3.Then brush your hair for 10 minutes 4.After that put some Olive oil 5.Brush your hair for 5 … minutes 6.Put wave cap on for 30 minutes or overnight. OR 1. <P> When waves move through a substance, they only move the particles of the substance backwards and forwards (longitudinal) or side to side (transverse) as the wave passes. Waves transmit energy without transmitting matter. This means that waves can move energy (or information) from one place to another without moving any substance (stuff) from one place to another. The amount of energy that a wave has depends on its amplitude. <P> Looking out at the ocean, one often sees a seemingly infinite series of waves, as far as the eye can see, transporting water from one place to the next. Though waves do cause the surface water to move, the idea that waves are travelling bodies of water is misleading. <P> A wave can be transverse or longitudinal. Transverse waves occur when a disturbance creates oscillations that are perpendicular to the propagation of energy transfer. Longitudinal waves occur when the oscillations are parallel to the direction of energy propagation. Frequency refers to the addition of time. Wave motion transfers energy from one point to another, which may or may not displace particles of the medium —that is, with little or no associated mass transport. Waves consist, instead, of oscillations or vibrations (of a physical quantity), around almost fixed locations.

calcification of salivary glands
|
<P> 17. One or more stones sometimes form in one of the salivary glands. A stone can cause a blockage of the flow of spit (saliva), which can lead to pain and swelling of the affected salivary gland. The reason why these stones form is not known. Sometimes a stone comes out into the mouth on its own, or with gentle probing. <P> The salivary glands produce saliva to moisten the mouth, to help protect teeth from decay and to digest food. The three major salivary glands are the parotid gland, submandibular gland (also called the submaxillary gland), and sublingual glands. Saliva drains into the mouth through small tubes called ducts. 1 The parotid gland makes 25% of the saliva and drains into the mouth near the upper teeth <P> We call the major salivary glands the parotid, submandibular, and sublingual glands. They all secrete saliva into your mouth, the parotid through tubes that drain saliva, called salivary ducts, near your upper teeth, submandibular under your tongue, and the sublingual through many ducts in the floor of your mouth. Besides these glands, there are many tiny glands called minor salivary glands located in your lips, inner cheek area (buccal mucosa), and extensively in other linings of your mouth and throat. Salivary glands produce the saliva used to moisten your mouth, initiate digestion, and help protect your teeth from decay. <P> Salivary Gland Stone Causes and Symptoms. Salivary stones form when chemicals in the saliva accumulate in the duct or gland. They mostly contain calcium. The exact cause is not known. But factors contributing to less saliva production and/or thickened saliva may be risk factors for salivary stones. A salivary gland stone -- also called salivary duct stone -- is a calcified structure that may form inside a salivary gland or duct. It can block the flow of saliva into the mouth. The majority of stones affect the submandibular glands located at the floor of the mouth <P> A. A salivary gland stone -- also called salivary duct stone -- is a calcified structure that may form inside a salivary gland or duct. It can block the flow of saliva into the mouth. The majority of stones affect the submandibular glands located at the floor of the mouth <P> A salivary gland stone is sometimes called a sialolith or a salivary calculus. Most salivary stones are mainly made of calcium. However, there is no abnormality of the blood calcium level or any other problem with calcium in your body. A stone can cause a blockage of the flow of spit (saliva), which can lead to pain and swelling of the affected salivary gland. The reason why these stones form is not known. Sometimes a stone comes out into the mouth on its own, or with gentle probing. <P> Sialolithiasis (sigh a lo THIGH a sis) is a condition where tiny salivary stones form in the glands. The stones, called sialoliths, are made of calcium. Some stones do not cause any symptoms, but some stones block the ducts. The saliva flow is partially or completely stopped. The three major salivary glands are the parotid gland, submandibular gland (also called the submaxillary gland), and sublingual glands. Saliva drains into the mouth through small tubes called ducts. <P> A salivary duct stone is a calcification in the salivary gland, which blocks the flow of saliva in the mouth. Stones most often form in the base of the mouth; however, the deposits can form on the cheeks and under the tongue. Most individuals who experience stones have multiple deposits. As salivary gland stones are caused by the buildup of calcium and other minerals in the salivary gland, treatment focuses on naturally dissolving the buildup. Common treatments include apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and oregano oil. <P> A salivary gland stone is a calcified deposit located in the salivary gland or duct. These deposits often block the flow of saliva and can cause swelling and discomfort. Effective natural treatment works to safely dissolve deposits and return normal function to the salivary glands. As salivary gland stones are caused by the buildup of calcium and other minerals in the salivary gland, treatment focuses on naturally dissolving the buildup. Common treatments include apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and oregano oil.

It flows generally eastward for 137 miles (220 km) from its origin at the confluence of the Oconee River and Ocmulgee River towards the Atlantic Ocean, where it empties into the ocean near Brunswick, Georgia. There are no dams directly on the Altamaha, though there are some on the Oconee and the Ocmulgee. The Altamaha River flows through a flood plain up to five miles (8 km) wide, consisting of some of the last remaining hardwood bottomlands and cypress swamps in the American South. As the river approaches the Atlantic Ocean, it becomes a broad estuary. <P> · 305(b)/303(d) Listings: In the Altamaha River Basin, there are approximately 35 rivers and streams listed on the 2012 integrated 305(b)/303(d) list as waters not supporting their designated uses. These impaired waters include roughly 523 miles of streams and tributaries in the Altamaha River Basin. · The Altamaha was declared the 7th most endangered river in the United States in 2002 due to the loss of water flow that has resulted from reservoirs and power plants along the shoreline. <P> The Altamaha River, formed by the confluence of the Ocmulgee and Oconee rivers near Lumber City and joined farther downstream by the Ohoopee River, flows more than 130 straight-line miles from its northernmost points to its entry into the Atlantic Ocean north of Brunswick. The Altamaha River flows through the legendary longleaf pine system of the Southeast's Coastal Plain. Once, 90 million acres of the towering Pinus palustris swept through the southern states. In 1865 one man alone, Robert Pell, had 4 million acres for sale, with the Altamaha at the epicenter of his holdings. <P> Including its tributaries, the Altamaha River's drainage basin is about 14,000 square miles (36,000 km 2) in size, qualifying it among the larger river basins of the US Atlantic coast. It is reportedly the third largest contributor of fresh water to the Atlantic Ocean from North America. The Altamaha River flows through a flood plain up to five miles (8 km) wide, consisting of some of the last remaining hardwood bottomlands and cypress swamps in the American South.

mitochondrial dna is found where in relation to the cell
|
<P> Mitochondrial DNA encodes just 37 of these genes; the remaining genes are encoded in the cell nucleus and the resultant proteins are transported to the mitochondria. Only about 3% of the genes necessary to make a mitochondrion (100 of the 3000) are allocated for making ATP. The conventional teaching in biology and medicine is that mitochondria function only as energy factories for the cell. This over-simplification is a mistake which has slowed our progress toward understanding the biology underlying mitochondrial disease. It takes about 3000 genes to make a mitochondrion. <P> Mitochondria Have DNA. Mitochondria and chloroplasts have striking similarities to bacteria cells. They have their own DNA, which is separate from the DNA found in the nucleus of the cell. And both organelles use their DNA to produce many proteins and enzymes required for their function. A double membrane surrounds both mitochondria and chloroplasts, further evidence that each was ingested by a primitive host. <P> Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has provided forensic scientists with a valuable tool for determining the source of DNA recovered from damaged, degraded, or very small biological samples. MtDNA is a small circular genome located in the mitochondria, which are located outside of a cell's nucleus. <P> Although most DNA is packaged in chromosomes within the nucleus, mitochondria also have a small amount of their own DNA. This genetic material is known as mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA. Mitochondria (illustration) are structures within cells that convert the energy from food into a form that cells can use. Each cell contains hundreds to thousands of mitochondria, which are located in the fluid that surrounds the nucleus (the cytoplasm). <P> In humans, 615 distinct types of protein have been identified from cardiac mitochondria, whereas in rats, 940 proteins have been reported. The mitochondrial proteome is thought to be dynamically regulated. Although most of a cell's DNA is contained in the cell nucleus, the mitochondrion has its own independent genome. Further, its DNA shows substantial similarity to bacterial genomes. A mitochondrion contains DNA, which is organized as several copies of a single, circular chromosome. This mitochondrial chromosome contains genes for redox proteins, such as those of the respiratory chain. <P> Mitochondrial DNA is only a small portion of the DNA in a eukaryotic cell; most of the DNA can be found in the cell nucleus and, in plants, in the chloroplast. In humans, the 16,600 base pairs of mitochondrial DNA encode for only 37 genes. Origin [edit]. Nuclear and mitochondrial DNA are thought to be of separate evolutionary origin, with the mtDNA being derived from the circular genomes of the bacteria that were engulfed by the early ancestors of today's eukaryotic cells. This theory is called the endosymbiotic theory. <P> The mitochondrion (plural mitochondria) is a double membrane-bound organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. The word mitochondrion comes from the Greek μίτος, mitos, i.e. thread, and χονδρίον, chondrion, i.e. granule or grain-like. Mitochondria range from 0.5 to 1.0 μm in diameter. A mitochondrion contains DNA, which is organized as several copies of a single, circular chromosome. This mitochondrial chromosome contains genes for redox proteins, such as those of the respiratory chain. <P> Bars: 200 nm. (A) Cytoplasmic section after immunogold labelling with anti-DNA; gold particles marking mtDNA are found near the mitochondrial membrane. (B) Whole mount view of cytoplasm after extraction with CSK buffer and immunogold labelling with anti-DNA; mtDNA (marked by gold particles) resists extraction. Origin [edit]. Nuclear and mitochondrial DNA are thought to be of separate evolutionary origin, with the mtDNA being derived from the circular genomes of the bacteria that were engulfed by the early ancestors of today's eukaryotic cells. This theory is called the endosymbiotic theory. <P> Mitochondrial diseases result from failures of the mitochondria, specialized compartments present in every cell of the body except red blood cells. Mitochondria are responsible for creating more than 90% of the energy needed by the body to sustain life and support growth. The conventional teaching in biology and medicine is that mitochondria function only as energy factories for the cell. This over-simplification is a mistake which has slowed our progress toward understanding the biology underlying mitochondrial disease. It takes about 3000 genes to make a mitochondrion.

average size of a parking space
|
<P> Automobile associations warn of this issue. A Swiss Association regulating parking space wants to consider this issue for 2016. In the United Kingdom the recommended standard Parking bay size is 2.4 metres (7.9 ft) wide by 4.8 metres (16 ft) long. Recently there has been some controversy about most UK parking spaces being too small to fit modern cars, which have grown significantly since standards were set decades ago. Parallel parking spaces are typically cited as being approximately 2.76 metres (9.1 ft) wide by 6.1 metres (20 ft) long. During construction, the specific dimensions of a parking space are decided by a variety of factors. A high cost of land will encourage smaller dimensions and the introduction of compact spaces. <P> The Different Sizes of Parking Spaces. The average size of a parking space is 320 square feet or 30 square meters. However, there are also other sizes available, one of the most common of which is 270 square feet or 25 square meters. For perpendicular or angled parking spaces, the length is commonly 16 feet to 18 feet or 4.9 meters to 5.5 meters. Meanwhile, the standard width is 7.9 feet to 9 feet or 2.4 meters to 2.75 meters. Some other versions of this type of parking space measure between 7.5 feet and 10 feet or 2.3 meters and 3.2 meters. For parallel parking spaces, the standard width is 7.9 feet or 2.4 meters while the standard length is 20 feet or 6.1 meters. They are usually marked 6.9 feet to 7.9 feet or 2.1 meters to 2.4 meters wide <P> Other Parking Space Sizes. The length for angled or perpendicular types is 4.9 meters to 5.5 meters. This is 16 to 18 feet. The average width is 2.4 meters to 2.75 meters; this is equivalent to 7.9 feet to 9 feet. Variations on these figures range from 2.3 meters and 3.2 meters to 7.5 feet and 10 feet. The size of the area rests upon the purpose of the space. The bigger spaces are used if there is high retail customer / high turnover rate. Parking that is adjoining the curb is typically 20 ft (6.1 m) long and 9.1 ft (2.7 m) wide. The parallel spaces are usually marked 6.9 to 7.7 ft (2.1 to 2.34 m) wide. <P> Though, in the United States, a parking space 10 feet (3.0 m) deep is uncommon and most parking spaces will be within 16 to 20 feet (4.9–6.1 m), with 19 feet (5.8 m) feet deep being the standard DOT recommended depth for standard perpendicular parking. Parallel parking spaces are typically cited as being approximately 2.76 metres (9.1 ft) wide by 6.1 metres (20 ft) long. During construction, the specific dimensions of a parking space are decided by a variety of factors. A high cost of land will encourage smaller dimensions and the introduction of compact spaces. <P> For example, normal parking spaces in the city of Dallas, Texas are 8.5 feet (2.6 m) wide, while compact spaces are 7.5 feet (2.3 m) wide. Because the boundary between parking space and driving area is not always well-defined, the length of a parking space is more difficult to establish. Parallel parking spaces are typically cited as being approximately 2.76 metres (9.1 ft) wide by 6.1 metres (20 ft) long. During construction, the specific dimensions of a parking space are decided by a variety of factors. A high cost of land will encourage smaller dimensions and the introduction of compact spaces. <P> Parallel Parking. The standard width is 2.4 meters or 7.9 feet. The average length is 6.1 meters or 20 feet. These are typically marked 2.1 meters to 2.4 meters / 6.9 feet to 7.9 feet wide. The average length is 6.7 meters to 7.9 meters/ 22 feet to 26 feet. This is inclusive of the exit and entry maneuvering. The size of the area rests upon the purpose of the space. The bigger spaces are used if there is high retail customer / high turnover rate. Parking that is adjoining the curb is typically 20 ft (6.1 m) long and 9.1 ft (2.7 m) wide. The parallel spaces are usually marked 6.9 to 7.7 ft (2.1 to 2.34 m) wide. <P> The standard recommended size of a parking space is 8.5 feet wide. However, parking spaces can be anywhere from 7.5 to 9 feet wide. 1 person found this useful. Edit. Confidence votes 69. Municipal and Federal parking regulations vary by locaiton and agency. From a review of Federal, state and local codes, the range of parking space widths varies from about 8.9 long wide to about 10.9 feet with apparent convergence around 9 feet long. Length appears to vary more, presumably explained by parallel parking requiring more length than head-in or angled parking

do the right thing spike lee movie

<P> By Sarah Larson. Last weekend was the twenty-fifth anniversary of the release of Spike Lee’s 1989 Brooklyn masterpiece, “Do the Right Thing.” The movie was celebrated all over the country: in Los Angeles, with a screening at. He also acknowledged Bill Lee, Spike and Joie’s father, and the music director for “Do the Right Thing,” who ran around the upper level of the orchestra waving happily, to applause. <P> Mookie (Spike Lee) is a young black man living in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn with his sister, Jade (Joie Lee). He and his girlfriend, Tina (Rosie Perez), have a son. He's a pizza delivery man at the local pizzeria, but lacks ambition. Spike Lee campaigned for Robert De Niro as Sal the pizzeria owner, but De Niro had to decline due to prior commitments. The character of Smiley was not in the original script; he was created by Roger Guenveur Smith, who was pestering Spike Lee for a role in the film. <P> User Reviews. Spike Lee's explosive, brilliant cinematic masterpiece 8 January 1999 | by pooch-8 (Fargo, North Dakota) – See all my reviews I felt that Do the Right Thing should have been included in the AFI's Top 100. It has remained a powerful and moving film that I cannot stop thinking about years after its release <P> Rosie Perez, who played Spike Lee's fiery girlfriend in Do The Right Thing, talks with ABC's Juju Chang. President Obama praised Spike Lee for “holding a mirror up to society” about race relations all those years ago. The moral of the story told through “Do The Right Thing,” Perez said, “is that we have to live together” and learn how to peacefully coexist. <P> Fascinating and creative racial drama that manages to stay (mostly) upbeat. Spike Lee's breakout film Do the Right Thing is an great drama about racial tensions in Brooklyn on the hottest day of the year. Parents need to know that this Spike Lee film is an intense study of racism as it existed in an urban U.S. neighborhood during the late 1980s. There are many angry racial confrontations using provocative, coarse language and highly-charged racial taunts, including constant use of n----r.. <P> Do the Right Thing is a 1989 American comedy-drama film produced, written, and directed by Spike Lee, who also played the part of Mookie in the film. Other members of the cast include Danny Aiello, Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee, Richard Edson, Giancarlo Esposito, Bill Nunn, John Turturro, and Samuel L. Jackson. Spike Lee campaigned for Robert De Niro as Sal the pizzeria owner, but De Niro had to decline due to prior commitments. The character of Smiley was not in the original script; he was created by Roger Guenveur Smith, who was pestering Spike Lee for a rol <P> Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing is the most controversial film of the year, and it only opens today. Thousands of people already have seen it at preview screenings, and everywhere I go, people are discussing it. Some of them are bothered by it; they think it will cause trouble. Others feel the message is confused. <P> The original script of Do the Right Thing ends with a stronger reconciliation between Mookie and Sal. Sal's comments to Mookie mirror Da Mayor's earlier comments in the film and hint at some common ground and perhaps Sal's understanding of why Mookie was motivated to destroy his restaurant. Spike Lee campaigned for Robert De Niro as Sal the pizzeria owner, but De Niro had to decline due to prior commitments. The character of Smiley was not in the original script; he was created by Roger Guenveur Smith, who was pestering Spike Lee for a role in the film. <P> Spike Lee’s film, “Do The Right Thing,” is a chilling morality tale of police brutality, telling the story of a deadly choke hold by police, sparking a race riot. “Do The Right Thing,” which debuted 25 years ago, is eerily similar to what was captured on a cell phone video in the final moments in Eric Garner’s life. So much so, that a day after Garner died, director Spike Lee inter-cut scenes from his landmark movie, with the video taken of Garner’s struggle with police. President Obama praised Spike Lee for “holding a mirror up to society” about race relations all those years ago. The moral of the story told through “Do The Right Thing,” Perez said, “is that we have to live together” and learn how to peacefully coexist.

how does widows benefits determine amount ill get paid
|
<P> SSI. The SSI program currently pays a maximum benefit of $733 a month if you are single or $1,100 a month for a couple. This is the total amount you are eligible to receive, but it will be reduced by certain other benefits or income you may receive. If you earn less than the SGA (for 2015, it's $1,090 per month), your monthly benefits won't be impacted. If you earn more than that amount, Social Security will give you a trial work period of nine months to see if your return to work will be permanent. <P> (Any benefits paid to a surviving divorced spouse based on disability or age won't count toward this maximum amount.). Note: Although you can use our benefit calculators to see how much your survivors could receive on your record, you cannot use them to calculate your potential benefits on someone else's record. Your survivor benefit amount would be based on the earnings of the person who died. The more he or she paid into Social Security, the higher your benefits would be. The monthly amount you would get is a percentage of the deceased's basic Social Security benefit. It depends on your age and the type of benefit you would be eligible to receive <P> For a surviving spouse’s benefit, the age of the surviving spouse used to determine if benefits are paid early or at full retirement age (FRA). If the benefit is paid early, say age 62, there will be an actuarial reduction. <P> You may collect up to 52 weeks of full DI benefits, or the amount of wages in your base period, whichever is less. You may be paid for periods longer than 52 weeks if your benefits are reduced because you returned to work on a part-time basis, or if you received other money during your disability claim period. <P> In this case, your widow(er)'s benefits are not reduced for those months below 75 percent of the deceased spouse's primary insurance amount; or. The deceased worker was entitled to a reduced retirement benefit for the month before the month he or she died. See §§ 723 - 725 for an explanation of how the reduced rate is computed; You choose to receive and are paid a reduced widow(er)'s benefit for months before you reach retirement age. A reduced benefit rate is payable for as long as you are entitled to widow(er)'s benefits. For a possible adjustment at age 62 and retirement age, see § 728; Note: Entitlement to this reduced rate may result in a reduction in any disability or retirement insurance benefit to which you may later become entitl <P> Social Security applies a formula to your average lifetime earnings to calculate the amount of your monthly check. The average SSD payment is currently $1,165. The highest dollar amount you can receive from SSD monthly in 2015 is $2,663. If you earn less than the SGA (for 2015, it's $1,090 per month), your monthly benefits won't be impacted. If you earn more than that amount, Social Security will give you a trial work period of nine months to see if your return to work will be permanent. <P> The maximum survivors benefit amount is limited to what he or she would receive if they were still alive. These are examples of the benefits that survivors may receive: 1 Widow or widower, full retirement age or older -- 100 percent of the deceased worker's benefit amount; Your survivor benefit amount would be based on the earnings of the person who died. The more he or she paid into Social Security, the higher your benefits would be. The monthly amount you would get is a percentage of the deceased's basic Social Security benefit. It depends on your age and the type of benefit you would be eligible to receive. <P> The amount of your benefit is based on the earnings of the person who died. The more s/he paid into Social Security, the higher your benefits will be. The amount you will get is a percentage of the deceased's basic Social Security benefit. The percentage depends on your age and the type of benefit for which you are eligible. Under a special rule, benefits can be paid to your children and your spouse who is caring for your children, even if you do not have the number of credits required. They can receive benefits if you have credit for one and a half years of work in the three years prior to your death.

what is myxoma tumor
|
<P> Myxoma is a benign jelly-like tumor of the heart that affects patients aging 30-60 years of age and often leads to heart attack. Get detailed information about the disease, including its causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. Cardiac Myxoma is considered to be the one of the most common non-malignant tumors affecting the heart. In a few cases, this disorder occurs due to hereditary reasons and affects young individuals. This condition is more prevalent among women and normally affects individuals above the age of 40. <P> A myxoma (New Latin from Greek 'muxa' for mucus) is a myxoid tumor of primitive connective tissue. It is the most common primary tumor of the heart in adults, but can also occur in other locations. <P> The most common type of primary cardiac tumor is myxoma. Most of these are benign. Patients of any age can develop a myxoma. They are more common in women than men. Most times, the tumor grows in the left upper chamber of the heart (left atrium) at the atrial septum, which divides the two upper chambers of the heart. <P> Myxomas are the most common type of primary heart tumor. The tumor is derived from multipotential mesenchymal cells and may cause a ball valve-type obstruction. About 75% of myxomas occur in the left atrium of the heart, usually beginning in the wall that divides the two upper chambers of the heart. An atrial myxoma is a benign tumor of the heart, commonly found within the left and right atria on the interatrial septum. <P> Carney complex is a hereditary condition associated with: spotty skin pigmentation; myxomas, which are benign (noncancerous) connective tissue tumors; and benign or cancerous tumors, meaning it can spread to other parts of the body, of the endocrine (hormone producing) glands. <P> Myxoma is an intracardiac tumor; it is found inside the heart. Seventy five percent of all myxomas are found in the left atrium, and almost all other myxomas are found in the right atrium. It is very rare for a myxoma to be found in either of the ventricles. <P> What is Myxoma (heart tumor), treatment and surgery. Myxoma is a nonmalignant tumor that grows in the HEART, nearly always in one of the atria and most commonly in the left atrium. Myxoma arises from the ENDOCARDIUM and may be either firm or soft in consistency. <P> Topic Overview. In rare cases, a tumor (myxoma) growing on the valve surface or in the left atrium of the heart can cause a blockage of the mitral valve that is similar to mitral valve stenosis. Myxomas are tumors of connective tissue. They can occur almost anywhere in the body and can become quite large. <P> A myxoma is a primary heart (cardiac) tumor. This means that the tumor started within the heart. Most heart tumors start somewhere else. Primary cardiac tumors are rare. Myxomas are the most common type of these rare tumors. About 75% of myxomas occur in the left atrium of the heart, usually beginning in the wall that divides the two upper chambers of the heart. The rest are in the right atrium. <P> Myxoma. Myxoma is a non-cancerous (benign) tumor of the heart. In fact, it is the most common primary heart tumor. A primary heart tumor is one that originates within the heart as opposed to another organ or tissue. Approximately 75% of myxomas are located within the left atrium. Typically, myxomas grow off of the inter-atrial septum (wall that separates the two atria).

<P> The aye-aye has coarse, shaggy black fur with a mantle of white guard hairs. It is a medium-sized nocturnal lemur weighing about 3 kg (6.6 lb). The aye-aye is found in a variety of forest types in Madagascar. Its varied diet includes insect grubs, fruits, nuts, nectar, seeds and fungi. It is also known to raid coconut plantations. The aye-aye is a nocturnal forager. Most of the night is spent traveling and foraging in the upper canopy. <P> Endangered lemurs' complete genomes are sequenced and analyzed for conservation. UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- For the first time, the complete genomes of three separate populations of aye-ayes -- a type of lemur -- have been sequenced and analyzed in an effort to help guide conservation efforts. The aye-aye -- a type of lemur -- has a long, thin, and flexible middle finger to extract insect larvae from trees, filling the ecological niche of a woodpecker. <P> The head and body length of the aye-aye is about 30 - 37 cm (12 - 15). The tail is about 44 - 53 cm (17 - 21) long. It weighs 2 - 3 kg (4.4 - 6.6 lb). The aye-aye has been found to be widely distributed in a variety of native forest types. The aye-aye is found in a variety of forest types in Madagascar. Its varied diet includes insect grubs, fruits, nuts, nectar, seeds and fungi. It is also known to raid coconut plantations. The aye-aye is a nocturnal forager. Most of the night is spent traveling and foraging in the upper canopy. <P> Aye-ayes are the only primates thought to use echolocation to find prey. Size relative to a 6-ft (2-m) man: Aye-ayes can be found only on the island of Madagascar. These rare animals may not look like primates at first glance, but they are related to chimpanzees, apes, and humans. Aye-ayes are dark brown or black and are distinguished by a bushy tail that is larger than their body. <P> The only other animal species known to find food in this way is the striped possum. From an ecological point of view the aye-aye fills the niche of a woodpecker, as it is capable of penetrating wood to extract the invertebrates within. The aye-aye is the only extant member of the genus Daubentonia and family Daubentoniidae. The French naturalist, Pierre Sonnerat was the first to use the vernacular name, aye-aye, in 1782 when he described and illustrated the lemur, though it was also called the long-fingered lemur by English zoologist George Shaw in 1800—a name that did not stick. <P> The aye-aye is known as Daubentonia madagascariensis. It is a rodent like animal that can be found in Madagascar. Its features are similar to that of a rodent. The aye-aye can be called as a lemur and belongs to the Daubentoniidae family. It is the only extant member of the genus Daubentonia. According to the IUCN, it has been declared as near threatened species. <P> Agonistic calls include short Aacks, and soft and loud long Aacks.. These types of vocalization are used among aye-ayes as warnings and as a method to maintain distance (Sterling 1995). Vocal communication between aye-aye females is infrequent and predominantly agonistic (Sterling 1995). Study of social behavior of the aye-aye is still in its preliminary stages and much remains unexplained. Aye-ayes are predominantly found alone and rarely interact with other aye-ayes outside of their mating period (Ancrenaz et al. <P> Aye-aye. Aye-ayes are the largest nocturnal primate in the world. They are also the only primate thought to use echolocation, which they use to find insect grubs hidden 2cm deep inside a tree. During mating, aye-ayes hang upside-down on a branch, and the procedure lasts for about an hour. <P> 1994; Sterling 1995). However, aye-ayes were observed to travel, forage, and communicate together in groups as large as four outside of the mating season (Sterling 1995). Associations of this type have been observed between males and females and between males, but never between two females (Sterling 1993b). Study of social behavior of the aye-aye is still in its preliminary stages and much remains unexplained. Aye-ayes are predominantly found alone and rarely interact with other aye-ayes outside of their mating period (Ancrenaz et al. <P> The aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) is a lemur, a strepsirrhine primate native to Madagascar that combines rodent-like teeth and a special thin middle finger. The French naturalist, Pierre Sonnerat was the first to use the vernacular name, aye-aye, in 1782 when he described and illustrated the lemur, though it was also called the long-fingered lemur by English zoologist George Shaw in 1800—a name that did not stick.

iambic pentameter definition chaucer
|
<P> Iambic Pentameter Definition. In a line of poetry, an iamb is a foot or beat consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, or a short syllable followed by a long syllable, according to FreeDictionary.com. An example is the word comPLETE. FreeDictionary.com defines pentameter as a line of verse consisting of five metrical feet. When put together, iambic pentameter may be defined as a line of verse consisting of five metrical feet where each foot consists of an unstressed syllable and a stressed syllable. <P> A line of iambic pentameter is made up of five such pairs of short/long, or unstressed/stressed, syllables. Iambic rhythms come relatively naturally in English. Iambic pentameter is the most common meter in English poetry; it is used in many of the major English poetic forms, including blank verse, the heroic couplet, and some of the traditional rhymed stanza forms. William Shakespeare used iambic pentameter in his plays and sonnets. An iambic foot is an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. The rhythm can be written as: The da-DUM of a human heartbeat is the most common example of this rhythm. <P> That means that every two lines rhyme with each other. It's also in iambic pentameter (the same style as Shakespeare), meaning that in each line there are ten syllables, and a heavily emphasized (stressed) syllable follows a less emphasized (unstressed) syllable: [dah DAH] [dah DAH] [da DAH] [da DAH] [da DAH]. Each [da DAH] is an iamb, and there are five of them per line <P> For example, the word remark consists of two syllables. Re is the unstressed syllable, with a weaker emphasis, while mark is stressed, with a stronger emphasis. In poetry, a group of two or three syllables is referred to as a foot. A specific type of foot is an iamb. A foot is an iamb if it consists of one unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, so the word remark is an iamb. Pent means five, so a line of iambic pentameter consists of five iambs – five sets of unstressed syllables followed by stressed syllables. comments powered by Disqus. Iambic pentameter refers to a certain kind of line of poetry, and has to do with the number of syllables in the line and the emphasis placed on those syllables. Many of Shakespeare’s works are often used as great examples of iambic pentameter. <P> Iambic pentameter is a commonly used type of metrical line in traditional English poetry and verse drama. The term describes the rhythm that the words establish in that line, which is measured in small groups of syllables called feet . An iambic foot is an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. The rhythm can be written as: The da-DUM of a human heartbeat is the most common example of this rhythm. <P> That’s where the term iambic comes from. Pentameter is simply penta, which means 5, meters. So a line of poetry written in pentameter has 5 feet, or 5 sets of stressed and unstressed syllables. In basic iambic pentameter, a line would have 5 feet of iambs, which is an unstressed and then a stressed syllable. For example: <P> A heroic couplet is a traditional form for English poetry, commonly used in epic and narrative poetry, and consisting of a rhyming pair of lines in iambic pentameter. <P> This is another example of iambic pentameter. Here each foot is called iamb which contains two syllables, wherein the first syllable is unaccented and the second is accented. Through this unstressed/stressed pattern, emphasis has been added to the words. Definition of Pentameter. Pentameter is a literary device that can be defined as a line in verse or poetry that has five strong metrical feet or beats. There are different forms of pentameter: iamb, trochaic, dactylic and anapestic.

which organelles use a proton gradient to produce atp
|
<P> This gradient is used by the F O F 1 ATP synthase complex to make ATP via oxidative phosphorylation. ATP synthase is sometimes described as Complex V of the electron transport chain. The F O component of ATP synthase acts as an ion channel that provides for a proton flux back into the mitochondrial matrix. In the mitochondrial electron transport chain electrons move from an electron donor (NADH or QH 2) to a terminal electron acceptor (O 2) via a series of redox reactions. These reactions are coupled to the creation of a proton gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane. There are three proton pumps: I, III, and IV. <P> Most eukaryotic cells have mitochondria, which produce ATP from products of the citric acid cycle, fatty acid oxidation, and amino acid oxidation. At the mitochondrial inner membrane, electrons from NADH and succinate pass through the electron transport chain to oxygen, which is reduced to water. In the mitochondrial electron transport chain electrons move from an electron donor (NADH or QH 2) to a terminal electron acceptor (O 2) via a series of redox reactions. These reactions are coupled to the creation of a proton gradient across the mitochondrial inner membrane. There are three proton pumps: I, III, and IV. <P> Oxidative phosphorylation synthesizes the bulk of a cell’s ATP during cellular respiration. A proton-motive force across a membrane provides the energy for ATP synthase (a molecular machine) to make ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. The proton-motive force is created by a large (1000-fold) difference in proton concentrations across a membrane. <P> Oxidative phosphorylation occurs in the mitochondria, and the two reactions (oxidation of NADH or FADH 2 and phosphorylation to generate ATP) are coupled by a proton gradient across the inner membrane of the mitochondria (Figure 9). We have seen that the electron-transport chain generates a large proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane. But recall that the ultimate goal of oxidative phosphorylation is to generate ATP to supply readily-available free energy for the body. <P> In most cases the proton motive force is generated by an electron transport chain which acts as a proton pump, using the energy of electrons from an electron carrier (Gibbs free energy of redox reactions) to pump protons (hydrogen ions) out across the membrane, separating the charge across the membrane. The oxidation of acetyl CoA in the mitochondrial matrix is coupled to the reduction of a carrier molecule such as NAD and FAD. The carriers pass electrons to the electron transport chain (ETC) in the inner mitochondrial membrane, which in turn pass them to other proteins in the ETC. <P> And that's why the long search for a high-energy chemical intermediate (a molecule able to transfer the energy from the oxidation of glucose to form ATP) was doomed to failure. In place of such an intermediate, Mitchell proposed a proton gradient across a membrane: the proton motive force (Mitchell 1961). The flow of protons through amazing protein turbines embedded in this membrane powers the synthesis of ATP in much the same way that the flow of water through mechanized turbines generates electricity. This explains why respiration is not stoichiometric: a gradient, by its very nature, is composed of gradations. <P> 2 Proton Gradients Produce Most of the Cell’s ATP Glycolysis alone produces a net yield of two molecules of ATP for every molecule of glucose, which is the total energy yield for the fermentation process that occur in the absence of oxygen. The device that makes this possible is a large membrane-bound enzyme called ATP synthase.This enzymes creates a hydrophilic pathway across the inner mitochondrial membrane that allows protons to follow down their el ectrochemical gradient. <P> The inner membrane is also loaded with proteins involved in electron transport and ATP synthesis. This membrane surrounds the mitochondrial matrix, where the citric acid cycle produces the electrons that travel from one protein complex to the next in the inner membrane. <P> ATP synthase then uses the energy stored in this gradient to make ATP. This process is called oxidative phosphorylation because oxygen is the final electron acceptor and the energy released by reducing oxygen to water is used to phosphorylate ADP and generate ATP. The oxidation of acetyl CoA in the mitochondrial matrix is coupled to the reduction of a carrier molecule such as NAD and FAD. The carriers pass electrons to the electron transport chain (ETC) in the inner mitochondrial membrane, which in turn pass them to other proteins in the ETC.

average life span of someone with ms
|
<P> 1 2002 A patient with Multiple Sclerosis can expect to live to average population life-expectancy minus seven years (mean life expectancy - 7 years). Life Expectancy with Multiple Sclerosis. Life expectancy for people who have multiple sclerosis is growing longer with every passing year, particularly with the advancement of medical science, new drugs and better care and understanding of the disease. <P> The average life expectancy for someone with MS is 35 years after the symptoms begin. This represents a life expectancy of 95 percent of someone who does not have multiple sclerosis. Most people with the disease can function effectively; however, a rare form of acute MS can be fatal within weeks. <P> The average longevity in the population of patients with MS is very difficult to estimate because it varies widely from patient to patient. Average life span of 25 to 35 years after the diagnosis of MS is made are often stated. Some of the most common causes of death in MS patients are secondary complications resulting from immobility, chronic urinary tract infections, compromised swallowing and breathing. Lectures: Prognosis. It is estimated that for all MS patients the chance of walking unaided in 15 years following disease onset is 50%. 1/2 of the patients will need assistance in walking or will be wheelchair bound; another 1/2 of the patients will be able to ambulate unaided. <P> Multiple Sclerosis in itself does not cause death and many people with Multiple Sclerosis live a normal life span and die from unrelated causes. Research shows however that on average the life expectancy of a person with Multiple Sclerosis is around 7 years less than that of the rest of the population. Areas of particular concern are chest and bladder infections. As disability from Multiple Sclerosis increases so also does the risk from these type of infections. The first thing to consider when thinking about MS life expectancy is that it is really all about averages. There is an average life expectancy for all different types of conditions that a person can suffer from just as there is an average for a person with no medical conditions or diseases. <P> The study found that median life expectancy for people with MS was 76 years, compared to 83 years for those without MS. The authors examined the health records of 5,797 MS patients in Manitoba, Canada from 1984 to 2012 and compared them to a matched sample of 28,807 healthy individuals living in Manitoba as well. <P> People with MS tend to die from many of the same conditions that people without MS die from, including cancer and heart disease. The prognosis for longevity is good except in cases of severe MS, which is quite rare. However, MS patients must contend with other issues that can hamper their quality of life. A Closer Look at Prognosis. Looking strictly at life expectancy, the prognosis for people with MS is encouraging. The University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC) reports that the majority of MS patients will experience a normal (or almost normal) life span. <P> When it comes to the prognosis for multiple sclerosis (MS), there’s both good news and bad news. Let’s start with the bad news: there is currently no cure for MS. However, there is good news about life expectancy. According to the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation (MSF), MS is not a fatal disease. In fact, MS patients have essentially the same life expectancy as the general population. A Closer Look at Prognosis. Looking strictly at life expectancy, the prognosis for people with MS is encouraging. The University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC) reports that the majority of MS patients will experience a normal (or almost normal) life span. <P> The researchers found that over the past 25 years, life expectancy for people with MS has increased. However, they also found that the median age of survival of people with MS was 76 years, versus 83 years for the matched population. (A median is the midpoint within a range of numbers. A study has confirmed previous findings that life expectancy for people with MS has increased over time. However, the investigators also reported that people with MS lived on average seven years less than the general population. The reasons for this difference are not clear.

what is paraquat
|
<P> 1 Paraquat can be mixed easily with food, water, or other beverages. 2 If the form of paraquat that is used does not contain the safeguard additives (dye, odor, and vomiting agent), people might not know that the food, water, or other beverages are contaminated. How you could be exposed to paraquat. 1 Paraquat is not known to have been used in any terrorist attacks or wars. 2 The most likely route of exposure to paraquat that would lead to poisoning is ingestion (swallowing). 3 <P> Paraquat Fact Sheet. Paraquat is a herbicide (chemical weed killer) used to control a very broad range of weeds (unwanted plants) in more than 100 crops, including cereals, oilseeds, fruit and vegetables, growing in all climates. Weeds shade crops, take their water and nutrients, and make harvesting difficult. Paraquat is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world. It has been approved for use by authorities in nearly 90 countries. When used as recommended, paraquat is effective and safe to users, consumers and the environment. <P> Overview. Paraquat is a toxic herbicide that has been related to several hundred cases of fatal human poisoning. Paraquat poisoning has mainly been due to deliberate oral ingestion (for suicide or murder), but there are a few cases of accidental direct ingestion. Although paraquat is now rarely used in the United States, it is still widely applied in developing countries. <P> 1 Paraquat is a toxic chemical that is widely used as an herbicide (plant killer), primarily for weed and grass control. 2 In the United States, paraquat is available primarily as a liquid in various strengths. How you could be exposed to paraquat. 1 Paraquat is not known to have been used in any terrorist attacks or wars. 2 The most likely route of exposure to paraquat that would lead to poisoning is ingestion (swallowing). 3 Paraquat can be mixed easily with food, water, or other beverages. <P> Medical Definition of PARAQUAT. : an herbicide containing a salt of a cation [C12H14N2]2+ that is used especially as a weed killer and that is extremely toxic to the liver, kidneys, and lungs if ingested.

<P> fen-phen. n. A combination of the drugs fenfluramine and phentermine, formerly prescribed for weight loss, whose use was discontinued because of association with pulmonary hypertension. <P> In the mid-1990s, a high number of overweight Americans were taking fen phen with the promise of quick and effective weight loss. Fen phen contained the combination of two drugs called fenfluramine and phentermine. While one drug suppressed the appetite, the other drug prevented drowsiness. Patients quickly experienced dramatic weight loss and the drug was dubbed a “miracle pill. <P> A fen is similar to a bog, except a fen gets water not just from rain and snow, but also from groundwater and water running down slopes. Groundwater and water running down slopes bring lots of nutrients, so a fen is able to support more types of plants than a bog. Common plants, animals, and insects in a fen are: <P> A fen is one of the main types of wetland, the others being grassy marshes, forested swamps, and peaty bogs. Along with bogs, fens are a kind of mire. Fens are usually fed by mineral-rich surface water or groundwater. <P> Definition of FEN. : low land that is covered wholly or partly with water unless artificially drained and that usually has peaty alkaline soil and characteristic flora (as of sedges and reeds). <P> Phentermine has also been used in combination with dexfenfluramine (dexfen-phen).

what is intellectual disability
|
<P> Intellectual disability is a term used when a person has certain limitations in mental functioning and in skills such as communicating, taking care of him or herself, and social skills. <P> No. The evaluation and classification intellectual disability is a complex issue. There are three major criteria for intellectual disability: significant limitations in intellectual functioning, significant limitations in adaptive behavior, and onset before the age of 18. Intellectual disability encompasses the “cognitive” part of this definition, that is, a disability that is broadly related to thought processes. Because intellectual and other developmental disabilities often co-occur, intellectual disability professionals often work with people who have both types of disabilities. <P> Intellectual disability is a term used when a person has certain limitations in mental functioning and in skills such as communicating, taking care of him or herself, and social skills. These limitations will cause a child to learn and develop more slowly than a typical child. <P> Definition of Intellectual Disability. Intellectual disability is a disability characterized by significant limitations in both intellectual functioning and in adaptive behavior, which covers many everyday social and practical skills. This disability originates before the age of 18. <P> Someone with intellectual disability has limitations in two areas. These areas are: 1 Intellectual functioning. 2 Also known as IQ, this refers to a person’s ability to learn, reason, make decisions, and solve problems. 3 Adaptive behaviors. 4 These are skills necessary for day-to-day life, such as being able to communicate effectively, interact with others, and take care of oneself. <P> Definition. An intellectual disability, formerly referred to as “mental retardation”, is not an inherent trait of any individual, but instead is characterized by a combination of deficits in both cognitive functioning and adaptive behavior. <P> Intellectual disability is a disability characterized by significant limitations both in intellectual functioning (reasoning, learning, problem solving) and in adaptive behavior, which covers a range of everyday social and practical skills. This disability originates before the age of 18. Intellectual disability encompasses the “cognitive” part of this definition, that is, a disability that is broadly related to thought processes. Because intellectual and other developmental disabilities often co-occur, intellectual disability professionals often work with people who have both types of disabilities. <P> Intellectual disability, also known as mental retardation, is a term used when there are limits to a person’s ability to learn at an expected level and function in daily life. Levels of intellectual disability vary greatly in children – from a very slight problem to a very severe problem. Intellectual disability can be caused by a problem that starts any time before a child turns 18 years old – even before birth. It can be caused by injury, disease, or a problem in the brain. For many children, the cause of their intellectual disability is not known. <P> See also: Developmental disability. Intellectual disability (ID), also called intellectual development disorder (IDD) or general learning disability, and formerly known as mental retardation (MR), is a generalized neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by significantly impaired intellectual and adaptive functioning. In general, people with intellectual disability have an IQ below 70, but clinical discretion may be necessary for individuals who have a somewhat higher IQ but severe impairment in adaptive functioning. It is formally diagnosed by an assessment of IQ and adaptive behavior. <P> Intellectual disability is subdivided into syndromic intellectual disability, in which intellectual deficits associated with other medical and behavioral signs and symptoms are present, and non-syndromic intellectual disability, in which intellectual deficits appear without other abnormalities. In general, people with intellectual disability have an IQ below 70, but clinical discretion may be necessary for individuals who have a somewhat higher IQ but severe impairment in adaptive functioning. It is formally diagnosed by an assessment of IQ and adaptive behavior.

definition of ABO/Rh blood group systems
|
<P> A person who has two A genes has red blood cells of type A. A person who has two B genes has red cells of type B. If the person has one A and one B gene, the red cells are type AB. If the person has neither the A nor the B gene, the red cells are type O. The ABO type of a person depends on the presence or absence of two genes, A and B. These genes determine the configuration of the red blood cell surface. <P> ABO blood type system. The ABO system consists of A, B, AB, and O blood types. People with type A have antibodies in the blood against type B. People with type B have antibodies in the blood against type A. People with AB have no anti-A or anti-B antibodies. People with type O have both anti-A and anti-B antibodies. People with type AB blood are called universal recipients, because they can receive any of the ABO types. People with type O blood are called universal donors, because their blood can be given to people with any of the ABO types. The Rh system classifies blood as Rh-positive or Rh-negative, based on the presence or absence of Rh antibodies in the blood. People with Rh-positive blood can receive Rh-negative blood, but people with Rh-negative blood will have a transfusion reaction if they receive Rh-positive blood. <P> In simple terms, this system is defined by the presence or absence of a single red blood cell antigen, representing the two blood types Rh+ and Rh-. These are determined by two alleles at a single locus, which segregate independently of the ABO blood group locus. Two basic rules governing this system are as follows: 1) The blood type is defined by the presence of two red blood cell antigens, A and B.. RBCs of type A have the A antigen on their surface, those of type B have antigen B, type AB red cells bear both antigens, while type O cells bear neither antigen. <P> Blood group: An inherited feature on the surface of the red blood cells. A series of related blood types constitutes a blood group system, such as the Rh or ABO system. The frequencies of the ABO and Rh blood types vary from population to population. In the US, the most common type is O+ (meaning O in the ABO system and positive in the Rh system), which is present in 37.4 percent of the population. <P> The Rh blood group system (including the Rh factor) is one of thirty-five current human blood group systems. It is the most important blood group system after ABO. At present, the Rh blood group system consists of 50 defined blood-group antigens, among which the five antigens D, C, c, E, and e are the most important. The commonly used terms Rh factor, Rh positive and Rh negative refer to the D antigen only. This term strictly refers only to the most immunogenic D antigen of the Rh blood group system, or the Rh− blood group system. The status is usually indicated by Rh positive (Rh+ does have the D antigen) or Rh negative (Rh− does not have the D antigen) suffix to the ABO blood type. <P> The Rh blood group system has two sets of nomenclatures: one developed by Ronald Fisher and R.R. Race, the other by Wiener. Both systems reflected alternative theories of inheritance. The Fisher-Race system, which is more commonly in use today, uses the CDE nomenclature. This term strictly refers only to the most immunogenic D antigen of the Rh blood group system, or the Rh− blood group system. The status is usually indicated by Rh positive (Rh+ does have the D antigen) or Rh negative (Rh− does not have the D antigen) suffix to the ABO blood type. <P> ABO blood group, a system for classifying human blood on the basis of antigenic components of red blood cells and their corresponding antibodies. The ABO blood group is identified by the presence or absence of two different antigens, A and B, on the surface of the red blood cell. The four blood types in this grouping, A, B, AB, and O, are determined by and named for these antigens. Type AB indicates the presence of both antigens; type O, the absence of both. Corresponding antibodies, anti-A and anti-B agglutinins, can be found in the plasma of type O blood.

<P> In ecosystem predation is a biological interaction where a predator (an organism that is hunting) feeds on its prey (the organism that is attacked). <P> 2. Whale sharks are a predator to Plankton. 3. Wolves are a predator to Moose. 4. Cobras are a predator to Mice. The term was coined in 1840 to described insects that ate other insects (see links). A predator is a animal that eats another animal, unlike a prey that is the one that is getting eaten. <P> predator-any animal that lives by preying on other animals. predatory animal. animal, animate being, beast, creature, fauna, brute-a living organism characterized by voluntary movement. carnivore-any animal that feeds on flesh; Tyrannosaurus Rex was a large carnivore; insectivorous plants are considered carnivores. <P> Predators are wild animals that hunt, or prey on, other animals. All animals need food to live. These animals need the flesh of the animals that they kill to survive. Weasels, hawks, wolves, mountain lions, and grizzly bears are all predators. Predators are a carnivore, which means their diet consists of meat. <P> The Yautja, known colloquially as the Predators, are an extraterrestrial species characterized by their hunting of other dangerous species for sport and honor, including humans. <P> Opposite of predator, you have prey — the animals predators hunt and eat. Prey animals can be anything from the smallest insect to a 1400 pound bull moose. Some prey animals are herbivores, meaning they eat plants. <P> Predators have different weapons that are used to kill and eat prey. The specific weapons they have are also considered adaptations. Three of a predators' main weapons are sharp teeth, claws and jaws. Camouflage is an adaptation that is used both by predators and by prey. A predator uses it to sneak up on its victims.

how much can i make as a real estate agent
|
<P> The median hourly wage for real estate sales agents was $18.82 in May 2012. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $9.95, and the top 10 percent earned more than $45.93. Brokers and sales agents earn most of their income from commissions on sales. The median hourly wage for real estate brokers was $28.05 in May 2012. The median wage is the wage at which half the workers in an occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $12.32, and the top 10 percent earned more than $85.07. <P> Being a real estate agent is often seen as a somewhat glamorous job, one that virtually anyone can do and potentially get rich from. In fact, becoming a real estate agent (or Realtor, as the National Association of Realtors calls them) can be a simple matter of taking a two-week course and passing a licensing exam. The reality of the real estate professionIn reality, the median income of a Realtor in 2012 was $43,500, which is well above the $34,900 figure from 2011. This really illustrates how much a Realtor's income can fluctuate -- and can plummet in a bad housing market. <P> As with an agent, a mortgage broker’s earnings depend on the number of deals she closes. But, unlike real estate agents, mortgage brokers are taxed as employees. “This is a real, pure sales business,” Appel said. On average, a mortgage broker’s commission-based earnings range from $50,000 to $150,000, Appel said. The Real Deal talked with industry veterans and found that in real-estate-related jobs, salaries run the gamut from $30,000 for a new appraiser to $30 million for a savvy developer. Even within individual professions, salaries are disparate depending on function and seniority. <P> But architects still do not earn as much as people in other real estate-related fields. Just starting out, an employee could earn a salary of $40,000 to $50,000 plus a bonus, Fischer said. After about five years, he said, the salary would be bumped up to between $60,000 and $70,000. The Real Deal talked with industry veterans and found that in real-estate-related jobs, salaries run the gamut from $30,000 for a new appraiser to $30 million for a savvy developer. Even within individual professions, salaries are disparate depending on function and seniority. <P> Salary. According to the BLS, real estate agents earned a median salary of $39,800 in 2013. The best-paid earned about $98,090, while the lowest-paid earned approximately $21,240. The highest earners worked in the metropolitan areas of Lake County, Illinois; New York City; and Ocean City, New Jersey. And though it’s possible to buy or sell a home without using a professional, an agent can make the process a lot easier. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects 11.1 percent job growth for real estate sales agents between 2012 and 2022, which is about as fast as average. <P> I work 40 to 50 hours per week, 50 weeks per year. The average price of the homes I sell is about $225,000. I sell anywhere from 20 to 40 homes per year. this is my 11th year in real estate and my 10th year rated in the top 10% of the local agents in my Northern California market. 2010 and 2011 were my worst years ever. 2005 was my best year. I think I am typical of the top producing agents. <P> You can — and will — go months without getting a paycheck. You’ll need to learn how to budget for variable income. Related: Variable income: How to manage money when you don’t earn a steady paycheck. But unlike W-2 jobs, a commission-based job such as being a real estate agent or broker has a limitless income potential. Some agents make over a million dollars a year. You get back in income what you put into it in effort and time. <P> Salary. Real estate agents work for brokers on a contract basis, which mean their earnings are a portion of the commission from every property they sell. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics May 2012 record, the mean annual salary for real estate agents is $51,930. However, real estate agents employed within the federal government see an annual average paycheck of $75,930, and those employed in residential building construction earn $54,090. <P> In other words, the 162,560 real estate agents nationwide earned a mean hourly wage of $24.97. The lowest ten percent of real estate agents earn an average $20,700, while the top ten percent make an average of $95,540 annually. For real estate agents employed within a real estate office, the average real estate agent salary is right around normal at $52,870. However, real estate agents employed within the federal government see an annual average paycheck of $75,930, and those employed in residential building construction earn $54,090.

uses for metamorphic rocks
|
<P> Metamorphic rocks started out as some other type of rock, but have been substantially changed from their original igneous, sedimentary, or earlier metamorphic form. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot, mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors. Foliation forms when pressure squeezes the flat or elongate minerals within a rock so they become aligned. These rocks develop a platy or sheet-like structure that reflects the direction that pressure was applied in. Slate, schist, and gneiss (pronounced 'nice') are all foliated metamorphic rocks. <P> Non-foliated metamorphic rocks such as hornfels, marble, quartzite, and novaculite do not have a layered or banded appearance. Pictures and brief descriptions of some common types of metamorphic rocks are shown on this page. Hornfels is a fine-grained nonfoliated metamorphic rock with no specific composition. Metamorphic rocks have been modified by heat, pressure and chemical processes, usually while buried deep below Earth's surface. Exposure to these extreme conditions has altered the mineralogy, texture and chemical composition of the rocks. There are two basic types of metamorphic rocks. Foliated metamorphic rocks such as gneiss, phyllite, schist, and slate have a layered or banded appearance that is produced by exposure to heat and directed pressure <P> Gneiss is a high grade metamorphic rock. This means that gneiss has been subjected to more heat and pressure than schist. Gneiss is coarser than schist and has distinct banding. This banding has alternating layers that are composed of different minerals. The minerals that compose gneiss are the same as granite. Schist is a medium grade metamorphic rock. This means that it has been subjected to more heat and pressure than slate, which is a low grade metamorphic rock. As you can see in the photo above schist is a more coarse grained rock. The individual grains of minerals can be seen by the naked eye. <P> metamorphic rock is made by heat and pressure on layers of sediments and in creates a smooth rock such as granite. 15 people found this useful.

Corundum, another metamorphic mineral, … is used for abrasives Kyanite and its polymorphs-for ceramics Graphite-pencils Many economic deposits of gold, copper, tungsten and iron occur in metamorphic rocks. Asbestos is a metamorphic mineral which was formerly used for insulation. 2 <P> Following are examples of three metamorphic rocks and a list of their uses. Marble is a metamorphic rock that is used to make floor tiles, counter tops and it is carved into statues and was used extensively in the building of the Roman Colosseum and other historic buildings.

Asbestos is a metamorphic mineral which was formerly used for insulation. 25 people found this useful. <P> The protolith may be a sedimentary rock, an igneous rock or another older metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks make up a large part of the Earth 's crust and are classified by texture and by chemical and mineral assemblage (metamorphic facies). They may be formed simply by being deep beneath the Earth's surface, subjected to high temperatures and the great pressure of the rock layers above it. <P> Pictures of Foliated and Non-Foliated Rock Types. Amphibolite is a non-foliated metamorphic rock that forms through recrystallization under conditions of high viscosity and directed pressure. It is composed primarily of hornblende (amphibole) and plagioclase, usually with very little quartz. The specimen shown above is about two inches (five centimeters) across. Metamorphic rocks have been modified by heat, pressure and chemical processes, usually while buried deep below Earth's surface. Exposure to these extreme conditions has altered the mineralogy, texture and chemical composition of the rocks. There are two basic types of metamorphic rocks. Foliated metamorphic rocks such as gneiss, phyllite, schist, and slate have a layered or banded appearance that is produced by exposure to heat and directed pressure <P> Gneiss. Gneiss is a high metamorphic grade of foliated rock composed from granite, schist or other types of rock. It is coarse-grained rock with bands which alternate dark and light. The banded patterns sometimes swirl as if the rock had been folded. This rock is durable and is widely used as building rock. Foliated metamorphic rocks are slate, schist, phyllite and gneiss. The properties of these rocks make them useful in industry and design. When you have a project that you are thinking about using rock to complete, you may want to consider using foliated metamorphic rock.

what kind of classification does sponges have
|
<P> The Life of a Sponge. Elephant ear sponge, © 2006 Richard Ling. The word sponge, for most of us relates to the scrubbing sponge or a bath sponge. It is easy to forget that there is much more to sponges than the scrubbing and bath. The sponges are living animals that live in the water. Sponge cells are totipotent (Dawkins 2004). The totipotent cells could give rise to reproductive cells or other types of cells of the organism. In theory, this enables a sponge to live forever (Dawkins 2004). Sponges can produce sexually as well as asexually. <P> Unlike the cells of most other animals, the cells of sponges do not form into various organs like kidney, liver, or nerves. Sponge cells are totipotent (Dawkins 2004). The totipotent cells could give rise to reproductive cells or other types of cells of the organism. In theory, this enables a sponge to live forever (Dawkins 2004). Sponges can produce sexually as well as asexually. <P> There are more than 10,000 species of sponge. Most sponges live in the ocean. A few live in fresh water. All sponges take in water through pores (little holes) in their bodies. A sponge is a member of the phylum Porifera. It is a simple animal with many cells, but no mouth, muscles, heart or brain. It is sessile: it cannot move from place to place the way most other animals can. A sponge is an animal that grows in one spot like most plants do. Nevertheless, sponges are quite successful. <P> Sponges are a diverse group of sometimes common types, with about 5000 species known across the world. Sponges are primarily marine, but around 150 species live in fresh water. Other characteristics of sponges include a system of pores (also called ostia) and canals, through which water passes. Water movement is driven by the beating of flagellae, which are located on specialized cells called choanocytes (collar cells). <P> Sponges are animals of the phylum Porifera (/pɒˈrɪfərə/ ; meaning pore bearer). They are multicellular organisms that have bodies full of pores and channels allowing water to circulate through them, consisting of jelly-like mesohyl sandwiched between two thin layers of cells. Archaeocyathids, which some classify as a type of coralline sponge, are common in the Cambrian period from about 530 million years ago, but apparently died out by the end of the Cambrian 490 million years ago. <P> Comstock Images/Comstock/Getty Images. With 15,000 species in waters around the world, sponges (phylum Porifera) are a widespread, extremely primitive animal species. Because of their simple design these creatures have been able to adapt to a variety of habitats and conditions. <P> Many sponges have internal skeletons of spongin and/or spicules of calcium carbonate or silicon dioxide. All sponges are sessile aquatic animals. Although there are freshwater species, the great majority are marine (salt water) species, ranging from tidal zones to depths exceeding 8,800 m (5.5 mi). Archaeocyathids, which some classify as a type of coralline sponge, are common in the Cambrian period from about 530 million years ago, but apparently died out by the end of the Cambrian 490 million years ago. <P> Sponges do not have any internal organs or a nervous system. Their skeleton is made of tiny, needle-like splinters, or a mesh of protein called spongin (2) Most of the Demospongiae are made of spongin. Some of the sponges are made of both spicules and spongin. Sponge cells are totipotent (Dawkins 2004). The totipotent cells could give rise to reproductive cells or other types of cells of the organism. In theory, this enables a sponge to live forever (Dawkins 2004). Sponges can produce sexually as well as asexually. <P> Sponges, like all animals, possess some sort of a skeleton that gives their bodies shape. As a whole, poriferans have diverse skeletal elements including calcareous laminae, organic filaments, and siliceous and calcareous spicules.

what compartment is usually associated with flexion

<P> A distal radius fracture is a common bone fracture of the radius in the forearm. Because of its proximity to the wrist joint, this injury is often called a wrist fracture. <P> History. Patients with compartment syndrome will have an injury that is associated with limb edema. Patients who are awake and alert can accurately describe the pain and loss of function that is commonly associated with compartment syndromes (Table 2). Often, however, patients have altered sensorium. Motor weakness to the fingers may be present, but is often difficult to assess due to pain and swelling. A convex-shaped palm can be associated with compartment syndrome. Physical examination of the hand for compartment syndrome is very difficult. <P> a pathologic condition caused by elevation of tissue pressure within a closed compartment, resulting in the progressive development of compression and consequent reduction of blood supply. The compression may result from swelling within an overly restrictive dressing or cast or from nonexpansive muscle fascia. 1 Lateral compartment of leg. 2 lateral compartment of lower leg. 3 Lateral compartment of the leg. 4 lateral compartment syndrome. 5 lateral compliance. 6 lateral condensation method. 7 lateral condensation method. 8 lateral condensation method. 9 lateral condensation method. 10 lateral condylar inclination. <P> There are many muscles in the forearm. In the anterior compartment, they are split into three categories; superficial, intermediate and deep. In general, muscles in the anterior compartment of the forearm perform flexion at the wrist and fingers, and pronation. The superficial muscles in the anterior compartment are the flexor carpi ulnaris, palmaris longus, flexor carpi radialis and pronator teres. They all originate from a common tendon, which arises from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. <P> - exam: - variable weakness of toe extension; - pain on passive toe flexion; - diminished sensation in the first web space; - references: Chronic anterior-compartment syndrome of the leg. Results of treatment by fasciotomy. Management of chronic exertional anterior compartment syndrome of the lower extremity. This is similar in physiology and symptoms to the anterior compartment syndrome, with the exception that the pain is posterior to the tibia and markedly accentuated by passive dorsiflexion of the toes and ankle. <P> Elbow flexion and extension are painful, but are better tolerated than finger or wrist movement. When the dorsal compartment is involved, sensation to the hand and fingers is usually normal, because the posterior interosseous nerve has no sensory component. There often is weakness of thumb, finger, and wrist extension. Motor weakness to the fingers may be present, but is often difficult to assess due to pain and swelling. A convex-shaped palm can be associated with compartment syndrome. Physical examination of the hand for compartment syndrome is very difficult. <P> As the pressure in the abdominal compartment rises, blood flow to and from the abdominal organs is reduced. The liver, bowels, kidneys, and other organs may be injured or permanently damaged. Acute compartment syndrome usually develops over a few hours after a serious injury to an arm or leg. Compartment syndrome occurs when excessive pressure builds up inside an enclosed space in the body. Compartment syndrome usually results from bleeding or swelling after an injury. The dangerously high pressure in compartment syndrome impedes the flow of blood to and from the affected tissues. <P> - See: Compartment Syndrome. - Discussion: - type of forearm ischemic contracture resulting from brachial artery injury usually associated w/ supracondylar frx of humerus; - may see loss of motor & sensory function, however, classic involvment is w/ anterior interosseous branch of median nerve; - pathology:

what foods are good for type a blood
|
<P> What You Can Eat. That depends on your blood type. Here's what D'Adamo recommends for each type: Type O blood: A high-protein diet heavy on lean meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables, and light on grains, beans, and dairy. No. Exercise: The Blood Type Diet recommends exercises based on your blood type. For instance, it suggests yoga or tai chi for type A’s, and vigorous aerobic exercises like jogging or biking for up to an hour a day for type O’s. <P> People with type B positive blood shouldn't eat ketchup. Not all blood types are the same. There are four types of blood, A, B, AB and O, and the presence or absence of certain antigens is what determines your blood type, according to the American Red Cross. Based on these differences, Dr. Peter D’Adamo created the Blood Type Diet, which is often called the Eat Right For Your Type Diet. If you have type B positive blood, there are certain foods that D'Adamo recommends you avoid to achieve and maintain good health. <P> Blood group A: good and bad foods for your blood type. chicken, turkey, ostrich, guinea fowl. Bad: beef, duck, goose, lamb, mutton, porc, pheasant, veal, game. Tip: Eat white meat, but only in small quantities: your body doesn't tolerate it well. Good: cod, mackerel, monkfish, salmon, sardines, trout, whiting. 1 Blood type B: good and bad foods for blood group B. 2 Blood type B: good and bad foods for blood group B. 3 Nutrition for blood group AB. 4 Blood type AB: good and bad foods for blood group AB. 5 Blood group AB: good and bad foods for your blood type. 6 Expert advice on the blood type diet. <P> In it, naturopathic physician Peter D’Adamo argued that by eating foods most compatible with your blood type, you can lose weight, lessen chronic health conditions and help avoid certain diseases. The book lists foods that are good and bad for each of the four major blood types. Foods to Avoid for Blood Type A Positive. An egg frying in a pan. Photo Credit foodfashion/iStock/Getty Images. Many medical professionals dispute the theory of a link between food, blood type and health, but the idea of a blood-type diet was popularized in the 1996 book “Eat Right 4 Your Type.. <P> The good doctor believes that certain foods are good for your blood type, and that others are dangerous. Eat foods from the latter category, and you may experience a variety of health issues, ranging from inflammation and bloating to a slower metabolism and even diseases such as cancer. Or so the book says. The good doctor believes that certain foods are good for your blood type, and that others are dangerous. Eat Right For Your Blood Type gives you portions of the best foods listed for you. It also lists foods that encourage both weight gain and loss for each blood type. <P> D'Adamo claims that the foods you eat react chemically with your blood type. If you follow a diet designed for your blood type, your body will digest food more efficiently. You'll lose weight, have more energy, and help prevent disease. No. Exercise: The Blood Type Diet recommends exercises based on your blood type. For instance, it suggests yoga or tai chi for type A’s, and vigorous aerobic exercises like jogging or biking for up to an hour a day for type O’s. <P> Nuts, Seeds, Beans and Legumes. Pumpkin seeds and peanuts are good for blood type A individuals, says D'Adamo, as are beans and legumes like lentils, black-eyed peas, red soybeans, black beans and pinto beans. Type A people are warned to avoid pistachios, cashews and beans such as navy, red, garbanzo or kidney beans. Dairy Products and Eggs. Type A individuals following the Blood Type diet are instructed to avoid all dairy products and eggs. If you need a substitute, use rice or soy milk. Some type A people may be able to occasionally eat yogurt, goat cheese or kefir without experiencing health problems, says D'Adamo. <P> Foods to Avoid. D’Adamo says people of every blood type should avoid processed foods, but Type As have a number of other foods to avoid, too. He recommends people with type-A blood avoid meat, poultry, eggs and dairy products. If you like fish, it should be consumed in only limited amounts. Foods to Avoid for Blood Type A Positive.

what is the difference between cmath and math h
|
<P> therefore it's a good idea to use [math.h]. and in general, for such header pairs, to use the [.h] version. I would disagree. The only reason the .h versions exist is for compatibility. The C headers are listed under [depr.c.headers] for a reason. 9. @Jesse: the argument goes that if you include math.h, then you know you're dropping a heap of junk in your global namespace. If you include cmath then you may or may not be dropping a heap of junk in your global namespace. <P> They are C++ standard library headers. The headers are headers defined by the C standard library: The C++ standard library also makes available the facilities of the C standard library, suitably adjusted to ensure static type safety. The C++ headers, for the most part, have content identical to the corresponding C library headers except that the names are all defined in the std namespace. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question. The marked duplicate precisely answers your question. – Alok Save Mar 27 '13 at 10:55. Possibly more pertinent duplicate than those already listed: stackoverflow.com/questions/8734230/… – Chris White Dec 9 '13 at 2:14. @ChrisWhite: indeed. <P> 2. I've seen some information about differences between things like iostream vs iostream.h. From what I gathered from those the difference between them is that the version without the .h extension will not populate the namespace while the version with the extension will. 9. @Jesse: the argument goes that if you include math.h, then you know you're dropping a heap of junk in your global namespace. If you include cmath then you may or may not be dropping a heap of junk in your global namespace. <P> Overview over the Functions of CMATH. In C++ and Delphi, synonyms are defined for all these functions. The synonyms do not have a prefix, since the data type information is implicitly handled by the compiler. Only in the following cases, the conversion really makes sense: 1 You have only multiplications and related math functions (like square, sqrt, ipow). 2 You have to call the complex exponential function. 3 You are in polar coordinates and have to calculate the logarithm. <P> Square Root (The sqrt Function). C++ cmath library includes a square root function, which has the signature: double sqrt (double x); . That is, it calculates and returns the square root of x as a double value. If the function is called with an integer argument, the C++ compiler will convert it to a double before calling the function. The notation for division in mathematical formulas is similar to the operator used in C++. For example, the formula P/T is converted to C++ as P/T or as pressure / temperature. But what about a formula like this: <P> Basically I have to raise a power. I'm using the volume formula V=pi*r^2*h. I already declared PI using #declare PI 3.141592. But I just learned I cannot simply do (radius)^2 in C++ rather there's a power function pow() I have to do (around those terms not done fully learning it yet). <P> I've seen some information about differences between things like iostream vs iostream.h. I've seen some information about differences between things like iostream vs iostream.h. [iostream.h] is not a standard header. 9. @Jesse: the argument goes that if you include math.h, then you know you're dropping a heap of junk in your global namespace. If you include cmath then you may or may not be dropping a heap of junk in your global namespace. <P> CMATH is a comprehensive library for complex-number arithmetics and mathematics, both in cartesian and in polar coordinates, for C/C++ and Pascal/Delphi compilers.

how long is incubation period for bed bugs
|
<P> Time of the Cycle. Eggs take about a week to hatch. Bed bugs are most active when their living space is just under body temperature, so a room temperature that is about 80° Fahrenheit is hospitable. After hatching, the nymphal stages begin and if there is adequate food, temperature, and humidity of about 75%, bed bugs will thrive. They can produce several generations per year, so egg to egg can be timed in just a few months. So the bed bug life cycle goes from egg to nymph, progressing through five nymphal stages, to adult, which then lays eggs and the process starts again. <P> Gestation and Maturation. These creatures, which feed on human hosts as they sleep, lay plenty of eggs. A single female can lay up to a dozen eggs every day. The eggs take one to two weeks to hatch, at which point the young bed bugs, called nymphs, can immediately begin feeding. That does not, however, mean they can immediately begin breeding. Under ideal conditions, bedbugs reach adulthood in about 37 days. <P> Bed bug eggs hatching. Posted on September 29, 2009 by The Bug Doctor. Bed bug eggs are very small, about 1mm in length which is the equivalent of two grains of salt and white in color. Eggs hatch in one to two weeks and start out sticky so they can be laid just about anywhere, on any surface. <P> The incubation period of the eggs is approximately 10 days. Female Bed Bugs lay 1 - 5 eggs PER DAY and up to 200 eggs in her lifetime; Bed Bugs nymphs have an incubation period of. Bed bugs (females) deposit three to eight eggs at a time. How long does it take them to hatch from the time they are laid. Depending on the ambient temperature, the incubation period of the eggs may vary. Bed bugs can lay between one and five eggs per day with an incubation period of 10 days in warm weather (slightly longer when cool). I was wondering today if a professional can answer what the incubation period is for bed bug eggs <P> Adult bed bugs can lay several eggs by day. Generally from 2 to 5 eggs. The incubation period of eggs can last up to 18 days and gives birth to a bedbugs nymph (baby bed bugs). <P> Life Cycle & Biology of a Bed Bug: Eggs, Nymphs, Adults. The life cycle of an insect describes the development of an insect from the egg stage to adult. The process is referred to as metamorphosis. Metamorphosis is the process that the insects undergo to change from egg to adult. So the bed bug life cycle goes from egg to nymph, progressing through five nymphal stages, to adult, which then lays eggs and the process starts again. <P> Views: 13Votes: 0. Bed bug eggs will usually hatch in one to three weeks, depending on tempurature meaning the warmer the weather, the shorter the incubation time. Nymphs go through 5 molts, taking a blood meal between each one. The egg of a bed bug is approximately 1 mm long or .04 inches and once hatched and reaches the first larva stage is about 1.5 mm long or .06 inches. <P> Bed bugs are active at night and generally hide during the day. After mating, females lay white, oval eggs (1/16-inch long) into cracks and crevices. An individual bed bug can lay 200-250 eggs in her lifetime. The eggs hatch in about 6-10 days and the newly emerged bed bug nymphs seek a blood meal. <P> Food for thought, not for bugs. Be Bait but do not be bitten! Even the one’s dying will be laying eggs: bed bugs love to have sex. Females can lay eggs for a long, long time as they carry the semen from multiple matings, within them, to impregnate the eggs for months! Add that to the complexities already implied. But Rom ....

how to prevent HIV aids
|
<P> Condoms are also effective at preventing sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) transmitted through body fluids, like gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV. However, they provide less protection against STDs spread through skin-to-skin contact like human papillomavirus (genital warts), genital herpes, and syphilis. The best way to reduce your risk of HIV is to stop using drugs. If you cannot stop using drugs, talk with your doctor or health care provider, counselor, loved one, or someone else you trust about getting into a treatment program. Find a treatment facility near you or call 1-800-662-HELP (1-800-662-4357). <P> Yes, HIV medicines are also used for post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV. 1 Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). 2 PEP is the use of HIV medicine to reduce the risk of HIV infection after a possible exposure to HIV. 1 Oral sex is much less risky than anal or vaginal sex. 2 Anal sex is the most risky type of sex for HIV transmission. 3 Use condoms. 4 Use a condom correctly every time you have vaginal, anal, or oral sex. 5 Read this fact sheet from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on how to use condoms correctly. <P> The main way to prevent HIV infection is to reduce the risk of exposure to HIV, for instance by having sex without a condom or sharing needles and other injecting equipment. HIV can also be caught from sharing sex toys with someone infected with HIV. See causes of HIV for more on transmission of HIV. The best way to prevent HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is to use a condom for penetrative sex and a dental dam for oral sex. <P> Shares & Saves. Save. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. AIDS is a series of opportunistic infections that occur when the immune system is weakened by the HIV virus. HIV is a blood-borne pathogen and is transmitted through the exchange of bodily fluids, specifically, blood and semen. The most common routes of transmission are unprotected sex with an infected person and exposure to infected blood and blood products, where the blood comes in contact with broken skin. There is no cure for HIV or AIDS, so prevention is the best course of action. <P> To help prevent the spread of HIV: Use a new condom every time you have sex. If you don't know the HIV status of your partner, use a new condom every time you have anal or vaginal sex. Women can use a female condom. When used to help prevent HIV infection, Truvada is only appropriate if your doctor is certain you don't already have an HIV infection. Your doctor should also test for hepatitis B infection. If you have hepatitis B, your doctor should test your kidney function before prescribing Truvada. <P> HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is the virus that causes AIDS. Though it is not as deadly as it once was, it is still very important to protect yourself (especially now that there are drug-resistant strains). Get started with Step 1 below to learn how you can prevent the spread of HIV infections. <P> Drug Use and HIV Prevention. Using drugs increases your HIV risk. If you're not ready to stop taking drugs, you can still reduce your risk of getting HIV/AIDS. Here's how: 1 Don't have sex when you're high. 2 It's easy to forget about safe sex when you're on drugs. 3 If you use drugs, don't inject them. 4 If you inject drugs, don't share the equipment <P> There's no vaccine to prevent HIV infection and no cure for AIDS. But it's possible to protect yourself and others from infection. That means educating yourself about HIV and avoiding any behavior that allows HIV-infected fluids — blood, semen, vaginal secretions and breast milk — into your body. When used to help prevent HIV infection, Truvada is only appropriate if your doctor is certain you don't already have an HIV infection. Your doctor should also test for hepatitis B infection. If you have hepatitis B, your doctor should test your kidney function before prescribing Truvada. <P> HIV prevention refers to practices done to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS. HIV prevention practices may be done by individuals to protect their own health and the health of those in their community, or may be instituted by governments or other organizations as public health policies.

what is primary immune deficiency
|
<P> Definition of Primary immunodeficiency disease. Primary immunodeficiency disease: A disorder caused by an inherited flaw in the immune system that increases the susceptibility to infections. Primary immunodeficiency diseases are unlike secondary or acquired immune deficiency diseases, which are caused by infectious, chemical or radiological agents. <P> Definition. Primary immunodeficiency disorders — also called primary immune disorders or primary immunodeficiency — weaken the immune system, allowing infections and other health problems to occur more easily. <P> About Primary Immunodeficiencies. Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PI) are a group of more than 250 rare, chronic disorders in which part of the body’s immune system is missing or functions improperly. Some affect a single part of the immune system; others may affect one or more components of the system. And while the diseases may differ, they all share one common feature: each results from a defect in one of the functions of the body’s normal immune system. <P> There are more than 200 different forms of primary immune deficiency diseases (PIDDs) affecting only about 500,000 people in the United States. These rare genetic diseases may be chronic, debilitating, and costly. <P> Immunodeficiency (or immune deficiency) is a state in which the immune system 's ability to fight infectious disease is compromised or entirely absent. <P> To be considered a primary immunodeficiency, the cause of the immune deficiency must not be secondary in nature (i.e., caused by other disease, drug treatment, or environmental exposure to toxins). Signs and symptoms [edit]. The precise symptoms of a primary immunodeficiency depend on the type of defect. Generally, the symptoms and signs that lead to the diagnosis of an immunodeficiency include recurrent or persistent infections or developmental delay as a result of infection. <P> Most primary immunodeficiencies are genetic disorders; the majority are diagnosed in children under the age of one, although milder forms may not be recognized until adulthood. About 1 in 500 people are born with a primary immunodeficiency. Signs and symptoms [edit]. The precise symptoms of a primary immunodeficiency depend on the type of defect. Generally, the symptoms and signs that lead to the diagnosis of an immunodeficiency include recurrent or persistent infections or developmental delay as a result of infection. <P> Primary immune deficiency (PID) is the name given to chronic illnesses caused by hereditary or genetic defects in the immune system. There are over 150 forms of PID. Some are mild, some are severe. The immune system protects our bodies from germs such as bacteria and viruses that cause infections. <P> Symptoms. One of the most common signs of primary immunodeficiency is an increased susceptibility to infections. You may have infections that are more frequent, longer lasting or harder to treat than are the infections of someone with a normal immune system. Signs and symptoms of primary immunodeficiency can include: 1 Frequent and recurrent pneumonia, bronchitis, sinus infections, ear infections, meningitis or skin infections. 2 Inflammation and infection of internal organs. 3 Blood disorders, such as low platelet counts or anemia.

what is rubellite
|
<P> Color. Rubellite is one of the colors in the commercial market that is often miss represented. In my opinion there are a lot of stones being called Rubellite that are not the correct color. A true Rubellite color is a medium to dark saturated red/red, red/purple, to red/purple/very slight peach. Think Raspberry like the fruit. <P> Rubellite Value, Price, and Jewelry Information. Rubellite is the name given to dark pink to red tourmalines, especially those with reasonably saturated colors and medium to dark tones. Ruby red stones with little orange or brown overtones are the most highly sought after. Avoid rough handling. Rubellite is the name given to dark pink to red tourmalines, especially those with reasonably saturated colors and medium to dark tones. Ruby red stones with little orange or brown overtones are the most highly sought after. <P> Classification and Chemical Features. Rubellite is a variety of elbaite [Na(Li,Al)3Al6(Bo3)3 Si6O18(OH)4], which is a variety of tourmaline, while ruby is a type of corundum [Al2O3] with chemical inclusions of chrome providing the red color. A rubellite is the same color in both natural and artificial light. Ruby can range from bright red to dark red-brown in color. The most desirable color for rubellite is a deep red or pinkish red, while the most desirable color for ruby is a deep red called pigeon's blood. <P> Rubellite Tourmaline. The rubellite is a particularly beautiful gemstone from the colourful family of the tourmalines. Its colour shines in the most beautiful nuances from red to shocking pink. Tourmalines are closely related gemstones which have been created by Nature in many different colours. <P> It's not an easy task. Gemologists would argue that rubellite is not a specific variety of tourmaline, distinguished by its chemical composition in the way that elbaite, liddicoatite and uvite are. On the other hand, there is little point to the term rubellite if it refers to all pink and red tourmaline. There is some confusion in the gemstone trade about what exactly counts as rubellite and how it can be identified. We've wondered ourselves which tourmaline to label as rubellite, and sometimes whether we should have a category of rubellite at all on our website. <P> Ruby and rubellite are both rare translucent minerals which come in a range of red shades that are used in jewelry and can be found across the world. They differ in a variety of ways including composition and source location. A rubellite is the same color in both natural and artificial light. Ruby can range from bright red to dark red-brown in color. The most desirable color for rubellite is a deep red or pinkish red, while the most desirable color for ruby is a deep red called pigeon's blood. <P> Rubellite. Rubellite is pink to red tourmaline. As such it has the mystical properties of tourmaline as well as its own. It is a stone of balance and calm. Emotionally, rubellite helps bring emotional balance and helps open up, relax, and detach from personal pain. It can be used with lepidolite as a super-powerful energy for calming people in distress. <P> Rubellite Information.

how to pay for car repairs with no money
|
<P> The loans can also usually be used to pay for car repairs. So while it is not a free service, the financing can in effect allow people to save possibly hundreds of dollars per year. Call (866) 252-7171, or learn more. <P> 1 Consider a AAA Car Care Center or a AAA approved auto repair shop. 2 If you're a AAA member, consider visiting a shop that's either operated by or approved by the organization you pay membership dues to every year. 3 Plus, you'll get a discount on the work you need done. Instead, here are some places to check out and cross-reference to find a trustworthy mechanic: 1 <P> Auto Repair Loan. If you are making payments on a nice car and need money for repairs, you may be wondering how you will be able to afford them. If your car is newer and the cost of repairs does not exceed the value of the car, you can get a car repair loan to cover the costs of fixing it. A car repair loan is different from a personal loan because the money is being invested in a vehicle. Usually care repair loans must be to cover repairs that keep the car in running condition but in some circumstances car repair loans can be obtained for other types of repairs especially if a person has good credit. <P> One in eight Americans wouldn’t be able to afford a car repair bill of $1,000. While most people don’t budget for car repairs, it’s still a good idea to set up an emergency savings account that would cover the costs of car-related problems in the near future. Here are some options for repairing your car when you can’t actually afford it: Negotiate with the mechanic. Shop around. Barter with someone who’s handy. Get a personal loan from a family member or friend. Use a credit card. Sell personal items for quick cash. <P> The Cost of Auto Repair Bills on the Rise! The cost of repair bills and auto parts is on the rise. The national average per hour for repair bills is $100 per hour, but hourly repair rates can range from $70 per hour on up to $130 per hour. If you have to take your vehicle into the repair shop for 4 hours, the cost of labor alone is $400. Now, factor in the cost of parts, which can range anywhere from $10 - $5000 depending on what is needed to be repaired. <P> Grants for paying for car and automobile repairs. Low-income individuals and welfare recipients may be able to qualify for transportation assistance from the federal government. The program that they have created is known as Job Access and Reverse Commute, or JARC. <P> If someone else smashes into your car and his or her insurance company is paying for the repairs, you are a third-party claimant. This is typically less of a hassle than first-party claims because you have no obligation to that insurance company. <P> According to a recent survey by AAA, 62 percent of American drivers would not be able to pay $2,000 for car repairs without going into debt with a credit card or asking for money from friends or family. <P> Even if you have car insurance that will cover the repairs, most policies require you to pay a deductible before they pay for the rest of the repairs. A car repair loan can be used to cover the deductible if you do not have enough cash to pay for it. A car repair loan is different from a personal loan because the money is being invested in a vehicle. Usually care repair loans must be to cover repairs that keep the car in running condition but in some circumstances car repair loans can be obtained for other types of repairs especially if a person has good credit. <P> An insurer is only required to pay damages up to the value of your car. If your repair costs exceed the value of your car, the insurer will often declare your car a total loss, pay you the fair market (Blue Book) value of your car (also known as actual cash value ), and take your car. The insurer will then come up with an estimate of the damages. This estimate may or may not be enough to pay for the repairs.

what does receding pandemics mean
|
<P> There are a number of factors that can cause your gums to recede, including: 1 Periodontal diseases. 2 These are bacterial gum infections that destroy gum tissue and supporting bone that hold your teeth in place. 3 Gum disease is the main cause of gum recession. Gum recession is a common dental problem. Most people do not know they have gum recession because it occurs gradually. The first sign of gum recession is usually tooth sensitivity, or you may notice a tooth looks longer than normal. Often a notch can be felt at the top of the tooth, just below the gum line. <P> Receding Gums. Receding gums (or gingival recession, or gum recession) is called the condition when the gum tissue surrounding the teeth is lost or pulled away, exposing the roots of the teeth. Gum recession is not directly linked with age but generally it is a more common condition in adults over the age of 40. The immediate result of receding gums is the exposure of the root and the loss of attachment between the gums and the tooth. 1 Tooth decay. 2 The root of the tooth is covered by cementum which is a hard material but not as hard as the enamel that covers the crown of <P> • PANDEMIC (noun). The noun PANDEMIC has 1 sense: 1. an epidemic that is geographically widespread; occurring throughout a region or even throughout the world. Familiarity information: PANDEMIC used as a noun is very rare. <P> A. A. Gum recession is the process in which the margin of the gum tissue that surrounds the teeth wears away, or pulls back, exposing more of the tooth, or the tooth 's root. When gum recession occurs, pockets, or gaps, form between the teeth and gum line, making it easy for disease-causing bacteria to build up. Gum disease is the main cause of gum recession. Your genes. Some people may be more susceptible to gum disease. In fact, studies show that 30% of the population may be predisposed to gum disease, regardless of how well they care for their teeth. Aggressive tooth brushing. <P> 1 The Spanish flu , 1918–1919. 2 First identified early in March 1918 in US troops training at Camp Funston, Kansas. 3 By October 1918, it had spread to become a worldwide pandemic on all continents, and eventually infected about one-third of the world's population (or ≈500 million persons). 1 An H3N2 caused about 34,000 deaths in the United States. 2 This virus was first detected in Hong Kong in early 1968, and spread to the United States later that year. 3 This pandemic of 1968 and 1969 killed approximately one million people worldwide. <P> Like us on Facebook. At this point in the news cycle, it may be prudent to define flu epidemic and its far scarier sibling, flu pandemic. Epidemic means simply that a sudden outbreak of the virus is spreading rapidly and affecting many people at the same time. <P> The virus remains deadlier than the one responsible for the pandemic of 1918. H5N1's case-fatality rate (CFR), the ratio of how many people get sick from a disease to how many die of it, has remained steadily high—at about 60%—since it first emerged in 1997. <P> There are a number of factors that can cause your gums to recede, including: Periodontal diseases.

Aggressive tooth brushing. <P> Receding gums. Receding gums, where more of the lower part of teeth becomes exposed, can be a sign of gum disease. Left untreated, the supporting tissue and bone structures of the teeth can be damaged, and teeth may be lost. Gum recession is a common dental problem.

In the global political context, the Doctrine was made in response to the possibility of a generalized war, threatened as a result of the latent threat of the Soviet Union becoming involved in Egypt after the Suez Crisis. <P> Dwight D. Eisenhower. In a special message to Congress, Eisenhower proclaims the sovereignty of the Middle Eastern nations and that the United States will ensure that force will not be used for any aggressive purpose in the world. <P> Eisenhower Doctrine. During the Suez Crisis President Dwight Eisenhower refused to support the Anglo-French action against Gamal Abdel Nasser in Egypt. Afterwards his Secretary of State, John Foster Dulles, became concerned about the growing influence of the Soviet Union in the Middle East. In January 1957 made a speech in Congress where Eisenhower recommended the use of American forces to protect Middle East states against overt aggression from nations controlled by international communism. He also urged the provision of economic aid to those countries with anti-communist governments. <P> With the Truman Doctrine, President Harry S. Truman established that the United States would provide political, military and economic assistance to all democratic nations under threat from external or internal authoritarian forces. <P> The military action provisions of the Doctrine were applied in the Lebanon Crisis the following year, when the United States intervened in response to a request by that country's then President Camille Chamoun. In the global political context, the Doctrine was made in response to the possibility of a generalized war, threatened as a result of the latent threat of the Soviet Union becoming involved in Egypt after the Suez Crisis. <P> C: The term Eisenhower Doctrine refers to a speech by President Dwight David Eisenhower on 5 January 1957, within a Special Message to the Congress on the Situation in the Middle East.

jordan belfort net worth
|
<P> Belfort’s actual net worth is something of a mystery. He earned more than $2 million for the books and film rights (I thought they were fucking crazy, he says about actually getting published), five figures for speeches he gives, along with income from investments he’s made in Australia. <P> Please try again later. He is known as the Wolf of Wall Street, and Jordan Ross Belfort seems to have earned the title. The boy from Queens, New York, grew into a business man charged with swindling millions of dollars through his investment firm. In 1999, Belfort pleaded guilty to fraud and was sentenced to four years in prison and a $110 million fine. He served 22 months in jail and now lives in California to be near his children. The film called The Wolf of Wall street, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, came out in 2013. Belfort has reportedly paid $14 million of the fine against him. His net worth is estimated at a not-so-promising, negative $96 million! <P> But in the past eight years Belfort has only paid back $11.6 million to his 1,500 or so clients, and most of that money came from selling off real estate even though he supposedly ran off with $200 million in cash based upon the convictions for money laundering and fraud. When Belfort was released from prison after just 22 months of a four-year sentence in 2006, the former financial broker founder still had a $110.4 million restitution order hanging over his head from the court system. <P> For example, some reports claim that Red Granite Productions paid Belfort $1.045 million for the rights to his story in 2011 in order to make the movie based upon his life. The government claims he only made $21,000 in restitution payments that year. When Belfort was released from prison after just 22 months of a four-year sentence in 2006, the former financial broker founder still had a $110.4 million restitution order hanging over his head from the court system. <P> About Jordan Belfort. Jordan Belfort is a Motivational Speaker, and Author. His Net Worth is in the Negative as he’s indebted to the tune of more than $100 Million in reparative damages caused by a pump and dump scheme his firm “Stratton Oakmont” used to defraud gullible investors to the tune of $200 Million. He is a Classic Example of Falling from Grace. He now earns a living doing Business Oriented Motivational Speeches, as well as the earnings off his 2 Best Sellers The Wolf Of Wall Street in 2008, and Catching The Wolf Of Wall Street. The Wolf Of Wall Street was made into a Movie in 2013. <P> -$100 Million. Jordan Belfort net worth: Jordan Belfort is an American author and motivational speaker who has a net worth of -$100 million dollars. Jordan Belfort was born in The Bronx, New York on July 9, 1962. He is probably most famous for being the founder of the financial brokerage firm, Stratton Oakmont. <P> The government has seen nothing to suggest that even 100 per cent of Belfort’s profits from his book and the movie Wolf of Wall Street would yield, in his words, ‘countless millions,’ much less the approximately $100 million that is still owed to the victims.”. When Belfort was released from prison after just 22 months of a four-year sentence in 2006, the former financial broker founder still had a $110.4 million restitution order hanging over his head from the court system. <P> So even the government is questioning whether Jordan Belfort’s net worth may still be in the millions despite claiming otherwise. And this very question came up during an interview with 60 Minutes where reporter Liz Hayes asked this question: When Belfort was released from prison after just 22 months of a four-year sentence in 2006, the former financial broker founder still had a $110.4 million restitution order hanging over his head from the court system.

[ New dams, for hydro-electricity, new roads, new steel & metal plants were created, new mines sunk and new canals dug. <P> A process similar to pasteurization is thermization, which uses lower temperatures to kill bacteria in milk. It allows a milk product, such as cheese, to retain more of the original taste, but thermized foods are not considered pasteurized by food regulators. Pasteurization (American English) or pasteurisation (British English) is a process invented by French scientist Louis Pasteur during the nineteenth century. In 1864, Pasteur discovered that heating beer and wine was enough to kill most of the bacteria that caused spoilage, preventing these beverages from turning sour. <P> Pasteurization, a process discovered by Louis Pasteur (while trying to inactivate spoilage organisms in beer and wine), occurs when a product is heated to a specific temperature for a specified length of time. This process is now applied to a wide array of food products, such as milk, fruit juice, cheese, and water. Pasteurization protects consumers from harmful pathogens such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Coxiella Burnetii in milk, and pasteurized products benefit from longer shelf life. see also Food Safety.

what three languages do they speak in peru

<P> Peru language comprises of the official language and also the languages that are spoken by the people belonging to several areas of this country. Apart from the first official language that is Spanish, the other two languages are very rich in their origin and due to the fact that they have many dialects as well. Quechua is more widely spoken than Aymara language. In Peru some efforts are also made to make this language as a part of the educational system. <P> Latin American Spanish. The official language in Peru is Spanish. The Spanish spoken in all of South and Central America is different in many ways from that spoken in Spain. You might say the difference in the two major Spanish language areas is comparable to differences between British English and American English. Spanish was introduced in the 1500s by the Spanish conquerors of Peru. Before that, there were various languages spoken among the many different tribes and cultures throughout what is known now as Peru. Many of those languages were lost over time. <P> In total, the remaining indigenous languages of Peru -- such as Aguaruna, Ashaninka asháninka And -- shipibo are spoken by less than1 % of The peruvian. Population of The peruvians that do speak an indigenous, language Including quechua And, aymara the majority are (bilingual they also Speak). spanish Approximately 84% of the Peruvian population speaks Spanish (known as castellano or espanol), español making it by far the most widely spoken language In. peru <P> Only about 1.7% of Peruvians speak Aymara, but it remains the 3rd most widely spoken language in Peru. Due to competition with Quechua, and then Spanish, the number of speakers has declined over the centuries. In modern-day Peru, speakers of Aymara are located almost entirely in the deep south, along the border with Bolivia and around Lake Titicaca (where the inhabitants, known as the Uros, of the floating islands speak Aymara). The language is spoken more commonly in Bolivia, where there are two million Aymara speakers. <P> Peru's official language is Spanish, but quechua is also spoken by the native peruvians in some parts of the country.

what forces are involved in nuclear reactions
|
<P> The nuclear force is also known as the strong force. This is one of the four fundamental forces in the Universe. The nuclear force keeps together the most basic of elementary particles, the quarks. Quarks combine together to form the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus. The protons in the nucleus of an atom are positively charged. If protons interact, they are usually pushed apart by the electromagnetic force. (Remember, opposite charges attract, but like charges repel!). However, when two or more nuclei come VERY close together, the nuclear force comes into play. <P> Another important nuclear process, which strictly speaking doesn't fall under the category of nuclear reactions, is called scattering. In this process, two nuclei come together and exert strong forces on each other, but there is no rearrangement of neutrons and protons. In other nuclear processes, two nuclei come close together, exert forces on one another, and one or both undergo a change. <P> Nuclear Force is defined as the force exerted between numbers of nucleons. This force is attractive in nature which binds protons and neutrons in the nucleus together. Since the protons are of same positive charge they exert a repulsive force among them. Electromagnetic force, gravitational force and strong nuclear force are the other forces. Weak Nuclear Force is caused by the emission or exchange of W and Z bosons. Weak nuclear forces are very short range because of the heaviness of the W and Z particles. <P> Because of this attractive Nuclear Force, the total mass of the nucleus is less than the summation of masses of nucleons that is protons and neutrons. This force is highly attractive between nucleons at a distance of 10–15 m or 1 femtometer (fm) approximately from their centers. Electromagnetic force, gravitational force and strong nuclear force are the other forces. Weak Nuclear Force is caused by the emission or exchange of W and Z bosons. Weak nuclear forces are very short range because of the heaviness of the W and Z particles. <P> For the force that holds quarks together in a nucleon, see Strong interaction. Force (in units of 10,000 N) between two nucleons as a function of distance as computed from the Reid potential (1968). The spins of the neutron and proton are aligned, and they are in the S angular momentum state. The nuclear force is not simple, however, since it depends on the nucleon spins, has a tensor component, and may depend on the relative momentum of the nucleons. <P> Nuclear forces (also known as nuclear interactions or strong forces) are the forces that act between two or more nucleons. They bind protons and neutrons (“nucleons”) into atomic nuclei. Besides the force between two nucleons (2NF), there are also three-nucleon forces (3NFs), four-nucleon forces (4NFs), and so on. However, the 2NF is much stronger than the 3NF, which in turn is much stronger than the 4NF <P> The nuclear force (or nucleon–nucleon interaction or residual strong force) is the force between protons and neutrons, subatomic particles that are collectively called nucleons. The nuclear force is responsible for binding protons and neutrons into atomic nuclei. The nuclear force is not simple, however, since it depends on the nucleon spins, has a tensor component, and may depend on the relative momentum of the nucleons. <P> In radioactivity a single nucleus breaks into two parts. In other nuclear processes, two nuclei come close together, exert forces on one another, and one or both undergo a change. This is called a nuclear reaction <P> Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are different types of reactions that release energy due to the presence of high-powered atomic bonds between particles found within a nucleus. In fission, an atom is split into two or more smaller, lighter atoms. <P> The nuclear force acts between all of the particles in the nucleus, i.e., between two neutrons, between two protons, and between a neutron and a proton. It is attractive in all cases. In contrast, an electrical force acts only between two protons and it is repulsive. Range. There is no way to observe effects of the nuclear force in experiments done on a human scale, or even on the scale of atoms. The nuclear force only manifests itself in experiments done with nuclei-namely experiments on radioactivity and on nuclear reactions.

what colour is rabbit wee
|
<P> Normal rabbit urine is usually pale yellow in color, but upon exposure to the atmosphere, compounds in the urine may oxidize to darker yellow, orange, red, or even dark brown. This isn't unusual, and--by itself--is not necessarily a sign of a health problem. <P> What colour is rabbit wee? yellow if there is a change in the color of the urine consult a vet ASAP. If its brown it could be diarrhea if so change its diet and see if there is any change (don't … take too long experimenting) if no change acures take it to The vet as soon as possible. <P> It is probably caused by a plant pigment and does not affect the health of the animal.. Red urine is a descriptive term for the condition where a rabbit's urine varies in color from the normal pale yellow to dark yellow, carrot orange, brown, or bright red. Red urine is not a medical problem. <P> The normal color of urine from rabbits is yellow. Sometimes the urine can become red, pink, brown, or orange. This condition, often simply called red urine, can occur in healthy rabbits as well as those who are ill. <P> When my rabbits were babies their wee was ordinary wee colour...:D However i was very shocked one day to find that their wee was red!! i asked some friends about it who also had rabits and they said they asked the vet about the same thing. <P> Normal rabbit urine can range from light yellow to dark reddish brown. But when bladder sludge is present, you'll see a staining of the sludge itself with the urine color. It tends to look more brown. I brought a couple of samples today to give you an impression of what it looks like. <P> You want to be aware of what normal urine is for your rabbit. The same thing with poop. Normal poop for your rabbit (as I said, you can find poop in the litter box to find what is normal). Also, there's a condition that we in the rabbit world call string-of-pearls poop. <P> It is not necessary to panic when you observe a change in color of your rabbit's urine. However, hematuria can occur due to disease anywhere in the urogenital system. An unspayed female rabbit might show a bloody discharge from her vulva, or drops of blood after urination, which could be confused with urine. <P> Best Answer: It is normal for rabbit's urine to be a really dark colour. If he isn't showing any other symptoms then you won't need to worry. The cause is almost certainly that he has a lot of calcium in his diet. Rabbit pellets are rich in calcium, as is lucerne (alfalfa) and clover hay.

what is sustainability marketing
|
<P> When marketers and business owners hear the term “sustainable marketing strategies,” it often conjures up images of recycled paper and energy efficient light bulbs. While that is not what we mean by sustainable marketing, the premise of sustainability, doing more with less, holds true. Our elevator pitch on the basics of sustainable marketing practices is that “you must focus your marketing resources where continued engagement will occur, well after the first interaction.”. <P> Sustainable marketing is an aspect of the larger field of sustainable community development, a field that is defined by the Brundtland commission of the World Commission as: Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. <P> The idea of sustainability marketing myopia is rooted into conventional marketing myopia theory, as well as green marketing myopia. Generally, sustainability marketing myopia can be avoided in two ways: 1 by identifying and stressing the inherent consumer’s values (efficiency and cost-effectiveness, health and safety, convenience, symbolism and status) of the socio-ecological features of the product. <P> For these businesses, sustainability means not only eco-efficiency, but also eco-effectiveness. Sustainability is absolutely about marketing and branding – when that means identifying market needs based on long-term prosperity and creating tribes of sustainable consumers. Sustainability needs to be about ‘greening'– because businesses and communities depend on healthy, productive ecosystems. Among the many ways that sustainability has been defined, the simplest and most fundamental is: the ability to sustain or, put another way, the capacity to endure.. <P> In turns, sustainability marketing myopia is an exaggerated focus on the socio-ecological attributes of the product over the core consumer values, a distortion of the marketing process which is likely to lead to the product failing on the market or remaining confined in a small alternative niche. Generally, sustainability marketing myopia can be avoided in two ways: 1 by identifying and stressing the inherent consumer’s values (efficiency and cost-effectiveness, health and safety, convenience, symbolism and status) of the socio-ecological features of the product. <P> Sustainability marketing myopia is a term used in sustainability marketing referring to a distortion stemming from the overlooking of socio-environmental attributes of a sustainable product or service at the expenses of customer benefits and values. Generally, sustainability marketing myopia can be avoided in two ways: 1 by identifying and stressing the inherent consumer’s values (efficiency and cost-effectiveness, health and safety, convenience, symbolism and status) of the socio-ecological features of the product. <P> Sustainability Marketing. The process of promoting, selling, and distributing a product or service in a sustainable market in such a way as to educate customers of the multiple benefits of valuing human, economic, and natural capital. This definition uses the term “sustainable market”, a term that is not defined in this dictionary. Ideally, a sustainable market would be one that meets today’s (global) economic, environmental, and social needs without compromising the opportunity for future generations to meet theirs. In practice, a sustainable market is a market that is moving toward that ideal.

how long should a tornado drill last
|
<P> Most local and statewide radio, TV and cable stations will be participating in the drill. Television viewers and radio station listeners and TV viewers should hear or see a simulated tornado warning message at 1:45 p.m. This tornado drill warning should last about one minute. The reason for a 6:55 p.m. drill is that severe weather including tornadoes occurs most often between 3 and 8 p.m. The statewide 1:45 p.m. drill gives institutions, first-shift and day workers a time to practice, but it does not allow second-shift workers the same opportunity. <P> In general, the larger the hailstones, the more potential there is for damaging winds and/or tornadoes. The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind speeds of 250 mph or more. Damage paths have exceeded the width of one mile and 50 miles long. Tornadoes generally move from southwest to northeast, but have also been recorded traveling in any direction. The forward speed of a tornado varies from 30 mph to 70 mph. <P> A carefully developed tornado drill should be run several times a year to keep students and staff in good practice, and to work out any kinks in the drill before it is needed for real. Also, large and easy to read maps or signs with arrows should be posted throughout the hallways directing people to the safe areas. Remember, there is no such thing as guaranteed safety from a tornado. Freak accidents happen; and the most violent tornadoes can level and blow away all but the most intensely fortified structures. Extremely violent EF5 tornadoes are very rare, though; and even within one's path, only a small area has EF5 damage. <P> A tornado appears as a rotating, funnel-shaped cloud that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground with whirling winds that can reach 300 miles per hour. Damage paths can be in excess of one mile wide and 50 miles long. Some tornadoes are clearly visible, while rain or nearby low-hanging clouds obscure others. Occasionally, tornadoes develop so rapidly that little, if any, advance warning is possible. <P> A tornado operates as a rotating, funnel-shaped cloud that extends downward from a thunderstorm, to the ground, with swirling winds which have reached 300 miles per hour (480 km/h). Schools and businesses may also conduct a tornado drill simultaneously. A tornado drill is a procedure of practicing to take cover in a specified location in the event that a tornado strikes an area. This safety drill is an important element of tornado preparedness.

(The drill will also occur at the same time in Minnesota and will be broadcast on radio and TV stations in that state as well). <P> A tornado is a violent rotating column of air extending from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind speeds of up to 300 mph. They can destroy large buildings, uproot trees and hurl vehicles hundreds of yards. They can also drive straw into trees. Damage paths can be in excess of one mile wide to 50 miles long. <P> The wind speed might be difficult to imagine: traveling the length of a U.S. football field within 1 second (over 130 meters or 430 feet per second).

what are the positive effects of greenhouse gases
|
<P> 1 The earth's atmosphere contains trace gases, some of which absorb heat. 2 These gases (water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, and nitrous oxide) are referred to as greenhouse gases.. 3 Albedo has an important influence on the earth's temperature. 4 Greenhouses are structures designed to retain heat. 1 The earth's greenhouse effect is what makes this planet suitable for life as we know it. 2 The earth's atmosphere contains trace gases, some of which absorb heat. 3 <P> Confidence votes 80. The greenhouse effect was made to have a positive effect, but human activities have made it a negative one. a) The greenhouse effect was made to keep the Earth's average temperature (14oC or 57oF) the same. The atmosphere has small amounts of greenhouse gases to trap heat and warm the Earth. Without this greenhouse effect, the Earth's temperature could be as low as -18oC (-0.4oF). <P> See this link below for a diagram: Global warming is the increase of the average temperature of the earths atmosphere due to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is caused by high concentrations of methane, co2 and water vapour in the earth's atmosphere. The greenhouse effect refers to the way the sun's heat radiates up from the warmed surface of the earth, where it is absorbed by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Th … e more gases there are, the more heat is absorbed. The natural greenhouse effect is supported by the water and carbon cycles. <P> For example, methane is a much more powerful greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide. Over a 100 year period, a molecule of methane (CH4) has 21 times the warming effect as a molecule of carbon dioxide (CO2), even though it stays in the atmosphere for only about 12 years of the 100 year period. <P> If the amount of energy from the sun and the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere remain the same, then the average temperature on Earth will also be constant. But this is no longer the case. The amount of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere is the highest it has been in the last 3 million years. Greenhouse gases that are in the atmosphere absorb and then redirect some of this heat back towards the Earth. The greenhouse effect is a major factor in keeping the Earth warm because it keeps some of the planet's heat that would otherwise escape from the atmosphere out to space. <P> A greenhouse gas (sometimes abbreviated GHG) is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range. This process is the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect. The primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. <P> The negative effects of greenhouse effect is very well known among people as global warming. Global warming is a recent phenomena of the 20th and the 21st century. The adverse effects of global warming start from temperature rise to melting of polar ice caps and submerging of the islands and coastal areas under water.

what is a diploid
|
<P> Definition: A diploid cell is a cell that contains two sets of chromosomes. One set of chromosomes is donated from each parent. Examples: The diploid number of a cell is the number of chromosomes in the cell. This number is commonly abbreviated as 2n, where n stands for the number of chromosomes. For humans this equation would be 2n=46. <P> Supplement. An example of a cell in a diploid state is a somatic cell. In humans, the somatic cells typically contain 46 chromosomes in contrast to human haploid gametes (egg and sperm cells) that have only 23 chromosomes. Word origin: from Greek diplous, double + -OID. (Science: genetics, cell biology). A cell or an organism consisting of two sets of chromosomes: usually, one set from the mother and another set from the father. In a diploid state the haploid number is doubled, thus, this condition is also known as 2n. adjective. <P> The gametic or haploid number (n) is the number of chromosomes in a gamete. Two gametes form a diploid zygote with twice this number (2 n, the zygotic or diploid number) i.e. two copies of autosomal chromosomes. For humans, a diploid species, n = 23. A typical human somatic cell contains 46 chromosomes: 2 complete haploid sets, which make up 23 homologous chromosome pairs. <P> Diploid is a cell or organism that has paired chromosomes, one from each parent. In humans, cells other than human sex cells, are diploid and have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Human sex cells (egg and sperm cells) contain a single set of chromosomes and are known as haploid. <P> Haploid and diploid are terms which refer to the number of copies of a chromosome that are found in the genome of an organism. In humans, for example, there are two copies of each (of our 23) chromosomes. Thus, we are diploid. If there is only one copy of a chromosome, this is called haploid. Human sex cells as well as most plant sex cells (sperm/ pollen, ovum/ oval) are haploid. <P> There are two types of cells in the body-haploid cells and diploid cells. The difference between haploid and diploid cells is related to the number of chromosomes that the cell contains. Definition. Since ploidy refers to the number of sets of chromosomes in a biological cell, a cell containing two sets of chromosomes comes to be known as a diploid cell. Humans have a total of 23 pairs of chromosomes, which brings it to a total of 46. <P> adj. Having two sets of chromosomes or double the haploid number of chromosomes in the germ cell, with one member of each chromosome pair derived from the ovum and one from the spermatazoon. The diploid number, 46 in humans, is the normal chromosome complement of an organism's somatic cells. n. A diploid organism or cell <P> Diploid cells contain two complete sets (2n) of chromosomes. Haploid cells have half the number of chromosomes (n) as diploid-i.e. a haploid cell contains only one complete set of chromosomes. Cell Division and Growth. Diploid cells reproduce by mitosis making daughter cells that are exact replicas. Definition. Since ploidy refers to the number of sets of chromosomes in a biological cell, a cell containing two sets of chromosomes comes to be known as a diploid cell. Humans have a total of 23 pairs of chromosomes, which brings it to a total of 46. <P> Reproductive cells, meanwhile, are the only haploid type of cells in the human body. “Diploid” refers to cells that contain two sets of chromosomes. Each set of these chromosomes are exactly the same with the other cell. The prefix “di” in “diploid” means “two,” and this refers to the two sets of chromosomes. Haploid cells contain only one set of chromosomes while tetraploid cells contain four sets. Genes or genetic components are part of cells including diploid cells. When a particular diploid cell, for example, divides, the resulting cells will also have the sam

typical boat sales commission
|
<P> Compensation Package. A salesperson may be paid on strictly commission, a base salary and commission or a base salary, commission and a bonus. A 30 percent base and 70 percent commission is fairly typical according to the article Best Ways to Pay Your Sales Staff, published by BloombergBusinessWeek magazine. For example, the commission is 4 percent for sales up to $30,000 in a month, 5 percent for sales from $30,001 to $50,000 per month and 7 percent for sales $50,001 or more. Another alternative is for the percentage to be retroactive and apply to all sales once the higher sales level is reached. <P> Some salespeople may be paid a commission that is variable and based on sales volume. This means that the more you sell, the higher your commission rate for the month. Such a commission structure usually has the rate increasing by 0.5 percent for each tier of sales. Sales tiers vary greatly by industry. For example, a retail store may have tiers of up to $2,500, $2,501 to $4,000, $4,001 to $6,500, and $6,501 and up. Insurance agents are paid a base salary in addition to the commission. For car salespeople, the average commission rate is 30 percent on the front end after dealer costs. The front end is the difference between the selling price and the price the dealer paid for the vehicle. Related Reading: Sales Commission Duties <P> The commission paid on big-ticket products may be less as a percentage of gross revenue than a small ticket product. However, the salesperson may earn more money for the big-ticket product. Suppose the commission is 5 percent for selling a $150,000 boat and 10 percent for selling electronic gizmos that retail for $500. For example, the commission is 4 percent for sales up to $30,000 in a month, 5 percent for sales from $30,001 to $50,000 per month and 7 percent for sales $50,001 or more. Another alternative is for the percentage to be retroactive and apply to all sales once the higher sales level is reached. <P> Re: What is the Standard Brokerage Commission. In the US it is 10%. If you have a $100,000+ boat you can try negotiating, but like real estate, if you cut the commision then a participating selling broker has less incentive to show your boat. So it is all a trade off. We listed our last boat for sale with 8% commission, negotiated it to 6% when they wanted us to help out by meeting the buyer, and finally agreed 5% in exchange for us accepting slightly less than our asking price. <P> The typical commission for IT hardware sales depend on the cost of hardware sold. Hardware costing below $10,000 will yield 8 percent commission, $10,001 - $20,000 is equi … valent to 10 percent commission, and higher than $20,000 will yield 13 percent commission. Sales commission is a variable cost because the amount of the account is subject to variation. Think about it: A used car salesman is paid a commission say of $500 for eve … ry car he sells for the month of October. <P> The yacht broker is paid an agreed commission by the seller to market the yacht for sale, field interest and inquiries from buyers, handle negotiations, attend inspection and water trial and ultimately, if successful, to attend delivery. <P> 1 You receive a percentage of the commission when you make a sale. 2 Boat sales commissions are 10% of the selling price. 3 A yacht selling for $100,000.00 will net the company $10,000.00. 1 Yes, the money you make is up to you. 2 You receive a percentage of the commission when you make a sale. 3 Boat sales commissions are 10% of the selling price. 4 A yacht selling for $100,000.00 will net the company $10,000.00.

The process in doing a project
|
<P> 1 If your project involves making observations and doing experiments, you should probably follow the Scientific Method. 2 If your project involves designing, building, and testing something, you should probably follow the Engineering Design Process. Key Info. 1 The engineering design process is a series of steps that engineers follow to come up with a solution to a problem. 2 Many times the solution involves designing a product (like a machine or computer code) that meets certain criteria and/or accomplishes a certain task. <P> If you haven't already done so, please read the preamble. It contains important background information to help you understand the content of this webpage. Project scope definition is a core project planning process (see figure 6.x). It involves identifying and describing the work that is needed to produce the product of the project in sufficient detail to ensure that: 1 The project team understands what it must do. If this process is poorly done, it is unlikely that the rest of the project planning will be well-done. Special Considerations. In performing this process, the following factors will often have to be given special consideration: 1 Product scope. <P> Project management is the discipline of carefully projecting or planning, organizing, motivating and controlling resources to achieve specific goals and meet specific success criteria. Traditionally, project management includes a number of elements: four to five process groups, and a control system. Regardless of the methodology or terminology used, the same basic project management processes will be used. <P> To help you respond quickly, a project change management plan describes what happens when deviations occur. It's not intended to prevent change; rather, its purpose is to outline a process that makes clear how change will be communicated, how decisions will be made, and how the project will adapt accordingly. Some of your stakeholders, or even your project team members, may feel that putting change control in place is your way of avoiding the dreaded scope creep, and that you are unwilling to be flexible and do what is best for your customer and the business. It's important to dispel this perception. <P> If you are hiring a contractor to do the work, having it inspected reassures you that the work is meeting the safety requirements established in the statewide building code. When this inspection is done by someone who is trained in the field for the type of work you are doing, it brings a certain value to the project. There is no need to worry about a surprise inspection, in fact, inspectors only come when you call and schedule an appointment. How the inspection process works if you are doing the project yourself: 1 When a project is ready to be inspected you need to call and schedule an inspectio <P> Project close. Closing a project is not the most exciting part of the project lifecycle, but, if you don't do it properly, you may obstruct the ongoing delivery of benefits to the organization. Make sure you do the following: 1 Complete and store documentation. Approvers may include the project board, project sponsor, or key stakeholders.) Once the deliverables are approved, the phase is completed and the project team can pass through the gate to the next phase. This is why the term stage/gate is used so often in project management. Find Out More. <P> Completing a project is not the same thing as ending the project management process. Simply finishing doesn't ensure that the organization benefits from the project's outcome. <P> The defining characteristic of process vs. project is repeatability vs. uniqueness. Process can mean something different. 1 Process is a repetitive collection of interrelated tasks aimed at achieving a certain goal. 2 Project is a unique endeavour with a beginning and an end undertaken to achieve a goal. <P> Permit Inspection Process. One of the most valuable steps in the permitting process is having the work looked at by someone who knows how it should look. If you are doing the work yourself, then it is another set of eyes checking things out. There is no need to worry about a surprise inspection, in fact, inspectors only come when you call and schedule an appointment. How the inspection process works if you are doing the project yourself: 1 When a project is ready to be inspected you need to call and schedule an inspectio <P> In this article, you’ll learn about the 8-step business analysis process that you can apply whether you are in an agile environment or a traditional one, whether you are purchasing off-the-shelf software or building custom code, whether you are responsible for a multi-million dollar project or a one-week project.

<P> Onomatopoeia is defined as a word, which imitates the natural sounds of a thing. Onomatopoeia, in its more complicated use, takes the form of phanopoeia. Phanopoeia is a form of onomatopoeia that describes the sense of things rather than their natural sounds. D.H Lawrence in his poem “Snake” illustrates the use of this form: “He reached down from a fissure in the earth-wall in the gloom. <P> Onomatopoeia is a word that imitates the sound or suggests the source of the sound that it describes. It is commonly used in comic strips as action sounds and in nursery rhymes. Onomatopoeia is used to help the reader hear and be involved in the writer's written word, by describing the action with a sound. Why don’t you try writing a poem using Onomatopoeia and enter it into one of our poetry competitions. <P> Calling this train a choo choo is an example of onomatopoeia. The definition of onomatopoeia is a poetic structure of words to convey how something sounds. An example of onomatopoeia is a poem about a stream written in a way to imitate the sound of a stream. Onomatopoeia is defined as a word that sounds like the common sound of the object it is describing. An example of onomatopoeia is a train being called a choo choo <P> Onomatopoeia Definition. Onomatopoeia is defined as a word, which imitates the natural sounds of a thing. It creates a sound effect that mimics the thing described, making the description more expressive and interesting.

D.H Lawrence in his poem “Snake” illustrates the use of this form: “He reached down from a fissure in the earth-wall in the gloom. <P> Full Definition of ONOMATOPOEIA. 1. : the naming of a thing or action by a vocal imitation of the sound associated with it (as buzz, hiss). 2. : the use of words whose sound suggests the sense. — on·o·mato·poe·ic \-ˈpē-ik\ or on·o·mato·po·et·ic \-pō-ˈe-tik\ adjective. <P> Onomatopoeia is a word that imitates the source of a sound that the word describes. For example a clock makes a tick tock noise. Tick and tock are examples of onomatopoeia. Below are several examples of oomatopoeia within famous poems. 1 Identify examples of onomatopoeia in poetry on your own. 2 Explain the purpose for the onomatopoeia and analyze how it contributes to the theme of the poem. 3 I have provided analysis with my examples to show you what I mean. 4 Write poems containing onomatopoeia. <P> Poetry Definition.

<P> The superficial muscles form the characteristic ‘calf’ shape of the posterior leg. They all insert into the calcaneus of the foot (the heel bone), via the calcaneal tendon. The calcaneal reflex tests spinal roots S1-S2. 1 In the lower part of the leg, the muscle belly combines with the soleus to from the calcaneal tendon, with inserts onto the calcaneus (the heel bone). 2 Actions: It plantarflexes at the ankle joint, and because it crosses the knee, it is a flexor there. 3 Innervation: Tibial nerve. <P> © 2014 WebMD, LLC. All rights reserved. The calf muscle, on the back of the lower leg, is actually made up of two muscles: 1 The gastrocnemius is the larger calf muscle, forming the bulge visible beneath the skin. 2 The gastrocnemius has two parts or heads, which together create its diamond shape. <P> In humans, the gastrocnemius muscle (/ˌɡaestrɒkˈniːmiəs/ ˌɡæstrɒkˈniːmiəs /or/ ; ˌɡaestrəkˈniːmiəs ˌɡæstrəkˈniːmiəs; Plural, gastrocnemii Latin from greek γαστήρ stomach (and) κνήμη; knēmē leg meaning stomach, of leg referring to the bulging shape of) the calf is a very powerful superficial bipennate muscle that is in the back part of the. lower leg The plantaris muscle and a portion of its tendon run between the two muscles, which is involved in locking the knee from the standing position. Since the anterior compartment of the leg is lateral to the tibia, the bulge of muscle medial to the tibia on the anterior side is actually the posterior compartment. <P> The calf muscles. The gastrocnemius, soleus and plantaris muscles are known as the calf muscles. They form the superficial muscles of the posterior compartment of the leg. The deep muscles of the posterior compartment of the leg are the popliteus, tibialis posterior, flexor digitorum longus and flexor hallucis longus. The gastrocnemius calf muscle is the most superficial of the calf muscles. It inserts onto the heel bone via the Achilles tendon. The gastrocnemius muscle flexes the foot at the ankle joint — that is it acts to point the foot downwards by bending it at the ankle joint, such as when you stand on your toes.

The calf muscles are essential to pushing off from the ground and standing <P> The gastrocnemius is the calf muscle which is most superficial. The soleus is deeper. Some think that these should be called one. The calf muscle is located on the back of the lower leg, below the knee, between the popliteal space and Achilles tendon. It is made up of two individual muscles, the gastrocnemius and soleus. 13 people found this useful. <P> SHARE SHARE TWEET EMAIL. The calf muscle is made up of seven muscles arranged into superficial and deep groups. The superficial group includes the gastrocnemius, plantaris and soleus. The gastrocnemius is the most visible muscle, and it gives your calf most of its shape. The deep group includes the popliteus, flexor digitorum longus, flexor hallucis longis and the tibialis posterior. <P> Superficial Muscles of the Calf. The gastrocnemius is the most superficial muscle of the calf, and it's the one you can touch simply by placing your hand on the back of your calf. It provides a lot of the power for jumping, sprinting, and walking. It also helps to bend the knee, but it's main action is on the ankle. The calf is located on the back of the lower leg. The muscles in the back of the lower leg are actually divided in two layers, superficial and deep. The superficial layer is what most people are familiar with because these are the muscles you can see. <P> Tight calf muscles is a common problem in athletes especially runners. The calf muscles are the Gastrocnemius muscle and the Soleus muscle. The big muscle at the back of the lower leg is called the Gastrocnemius. It’s the muscle that’s visible from the outside of the body. Under it, and further down the leg is a smaller muscle called the Soleus. The larger and most superficial of the two muscles, the Gastrocnemius, attaches to the heel with the Achilles Tendon and originates behind the knee on the femur, crossing two joints.

what is an adjective that modifies a noun
|
<P> So basically, the main function of an adjective is to modify a noun or a pronoun so that it will become more specific and interesting. Instead of just one word, a group of words with a subject and a verb, can also function as an adjective. <P> The Simple English Wiktionary has a definition for: adjective. An adjective is a kind of word that modifies a noun. Nouns are words that name a place, a person, a thing, or an idea. An adjective is a word that gives more information about the noun that goes with it. As a rule, in English, the adjective comes before the noun it describes. It is also a part of speech. <P> An adjective is a word that describes or modifies a noun or pronoun. Adjectives are used to describe a person, object, place or event. In many instances, an adjective provides a specific meaning to the word it is describing. <P> Adjectives and possessive adjectives (a type of pronoun) modify nouns and pronouns. Adjectives are the words that modify a noun or a pronoun. Examples: If you are asking what modifies a noun or a pronoun, the answer is an adjective. To modify just means to describe, to tell us more about a noun (a person, place or thing). For example, boy is a noun.

what is brown adipose tissue
|
<P> Knowledge center. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) , also known as brown fat, is one of two types of fat humans and other mammals have-the other type is known as white or yellow fat. Human newborns and hibernating mammals have high levels of brown fat. Brown fat's main function is to generate body heat. From what we can tell so far, main differences between the two are: Humans and mammals with higher levels of brown fat take longer to start shivering from the cold, than those with lower levels. That is why newborns do not shiver in the cold, their brown adipose tissue levels are higher than in older humans. <P> Brown adipose tissue (BAT) or brown fat is one of two types of fat or adipose tissue (the other being white adipose tissue, or white fat) found in mammals. It is especially abundant in newborns and in hibernating mammals. Its primary function is to generate body heat in animals or newborns that do not shiver. In contrast to white adipocytes (fat cells), which contain a single lipid droplet, brown adipocytes contain numerous smaller droplets and a much higher number of (iron-containing) mitochondria, which make it brown. Mesoderm is the source of myocytes (muscle cells), adipocytes, and chondrocytes (cartilage cells). Adipocytes give rise to white fat cells and brown fat cells. Researchers found that both muscle and brown fat cells expressed the same muscle factor Myf5, whereas white fat cells did not. <P> 10 hilariously insightful foreign words. Adipose tissue is a type of connective tissue which plays an important role in the functioning of the body. Better known simply as “fat,” this tissue makes up around 15-20% of the body weight of an average person <P> Heat production from brown adipose tissue is activated whenever the organism is in need of extra heat, e.g., postnatally, during entry into a febrile state, and during arousal from hibernation, and the rate of thermogenesis is centrally controlled via a pathway initiated in the hypothalamus. The development of brown adipose tissue with its characteristic protein, uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1), was probably determinative for the evolutionary success of mammals, as its thermogenesis enhances neonatal survival and allows for active life even in cold surroundings. <P> Synonym(s): brown adipose tissue, hibernating gland, interscapular gland, interscapular hibernoma, multilocular adipose tissue, multilocular fat. A special form of fat that generates heat by nonshivering thermogenesis, so designated as it is rich in mitochondria, which imparts a brown hue. bony tissue osseous tissue. brown adipose tissue (brown fat tissue) brown fat. bursa-equivalent tissue (bursal equivalent tissue) a hypothesized lymphoid tissue in nonavian vertebrates including human beings, equivalent to the bursa of Fabricius in birds: the site of B lymphocyte maturation. <P> The function of brown adipose tissue is to transfer energy from food into heat; physiologically, both the heat produced and the resulting decrease in metabolic efficiency can be of significance. The development of brown adipose tissue with its characteristic protein, uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1), was probably determinative for the evolutionary success of mammals, as its thermogenesis enhances neonatal survival and allows for active life even in cold surroundings. <P> Brown Adipose Tissue. Everyone is familiar with white adipose or fat tissue, which provides insulation and, by storing triglyceride, serves as an energy depot. Many mammals also have brown adipose tissue, which also stores triglyceride, but has the unique ability to generate heat. Intriguingly, there is an inverse correlation between the amount of brown adipose tissue and body mass index, with obese individuals having significantly less of the tissue than lean individuals; this suggests that brown fat may be an important factor in maintaining a lean phenotype. <P> The two types of adipose tissue are white adipose tissue (WAT), which stores energy, and brown adipose tissue (BAT), which generates body heat. The formation of adipose tissue appears to be controlled in part by the adipose gene. In humans, adipose tissue is located beneath the skin (subcutaneous fat), around internal organs (visceral fat), in bone marrow (yellow bone marrow), intermuscular (Muscular system) and in the breast tissue. <P> Adipose tissue is one of the main types of connective tissue. In biology, adipose tissue /ˈaedɨˌpoʊs/ ˈædɨˌpoʊs or body fat or just fat is loose connective tissue composed mostly of. adipocytes In humans, adipose tissue is located beneath the skin (subcutaneous fat), around internal organs (visceral fat), in bone marrow (yellow bone marrow), intermuscular (Muscular system) and in the breast tissue.

<P> 1 a second set for proteins synthesized by ribosomes that are attached to the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forming rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER). 2 This electron micrograph (courtesy of Keith Porter) shows the RER in a bat pancreas cell. 3 The clearer areas are the lumens. 1 one set for those proteins synthesized by ribosomes that remain suspended in the cytosol, and. 2 <P> Free ribosomes are located in the cytoplasm, and the bound ribosomes are attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. Free ribosomes produce proteins for the cell, while bound ribosomes produce proteins that are transported out of the cell. In the cytoplasm, ribosomes are free floating. They can move all around the cell. Bound ribosomes are located on the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum. The endoplasmic reticulum that contains ribosomes is described as the rough endoplasmic reticulum because of the bumpy surface. <P> 1 Nucleus 2 Nuclear pore 3 Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) 4 Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) 5 Ribosome on the rough ER 6 Proteins that are transported 7 Transport vesicle 8 Golgi apparatus 9 Cis face of the Golgi apparatus 10 Trans face of the Golgi apparatus 11 Cisternae of the Golgi apparatus. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum lacks ribosomes and functions in lipid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and detoxification of drugs. The smooth ER is especially abundant in mammalian liver and gonad cells. The lacy membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum were first seen in 1945 using electron microscopy. <P> The surface of rough endoplasmic reticulum is covered with ribosomes, giving it a bumpy appearance when viewed through the microscope. This type of endoplasmic reticulum is involved mainly with the production and processing of proteins that will be exported, or secreted, from the cell. It is the rough endoplasmic reticulum that is directly continuous with the nuclear envelope (as illustrated in Figure 1), which is also studded with ribosomes, and the two organelles are thought to have evolved simultaneously in ancient cells. <P> Ribosomes are attached to the rough ER and are free floating in the cytoplasm. Ribosomes are very tiny and don't consist of membranes.Ribosomes are in your face, hair, skin, and eyes. Ribosomes job is to help with protein synthesis and to make proteins. <P> Ribosomes are found ‘free’ in the cytoplasm or bound to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to form rough ER. In a mammalian cell there can be as many as 10 million ribosomes. Several ribosomes can be attached to the same mRNA strand, this structure is called a polysome. Ribosomes have only a temporary existence. 1 Ribosomes are found ‘free’ in the cell cytoplasm and also attached to rough endoplasmic reticulum. 2 Ribosomes receive information from the cell nucleus and construction materials from the cytoplasm. 3 Ribosomes translate information encoded in messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA). <P> The surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (often abbreviated RER or Rough ER) (also called ergastoplasm) is studded with protein-manufacturing ribosomes giving it a rough appearance (hence its name). The binding site of the ribosome on the rough endoplasmic reticulum is the translocon. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum lacks ribosomes and functions in lipid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, and detoxification of drugs. The smooth ER is especially abundant in mammalian liver and gonad cells. The lacy membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum were first seen in 1945 using electron microscopy. <P> The endoplasmic reticulum is a network of tubules and flattened sacs that serve a variety of functions in the cell. There are two regions of the ER that differ in both structure and function. One region is called rough ER because it has ribosomes attached to the cytoplasmic side of the membrane. The other region is called smooth ER because it lacks attached ribosomes. Typically, the smooth ER is a tubule network and the rough ER is a series of flattened sacs. The space inside of the ER is called the lumen. <P> Ribosomes and Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER). Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis, and can occur freely in the cytoplasm though more commonly on the outer surface of rough endoplasmic reticulum. The endoplasmic reticulum presents a large surface area on which these ribosomes can be situated, therefore allowing protein synthesis to occur on a large scale. Rough endoplasmic reticulum is particularly abundant in growing cells which demand a high turnover of materials in its growth. <P> Rough ER is found throughout the cell but the density is higher near the nucleus and the Golgi apparatus. Ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum are called ‘membrane bound’ and are responsible for the assembly of many proteins. This process is called translation. Certain cells of the pancreas and digestive tract produce a high volume of protein as enzymes. CELLS NEED THE ROUGH AND THE SMOOTH. Think of a cell as a “multitude of membranes” we said in an earlier section. This statement certainly applies to the endoplasmic reticulum an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. About 50% of the total membrane surface in an animal cell is provided by endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

what is hardness test
|
<P> The Vickers hardness test was developed in 1921 by Robert L. Smith and George E. Sandland at Vickers Ltd as an alternative to the Brinell method to measure the hardness of materials. The unit of hardness given by the test is known as the Vickers Pyramid Number (HV) or Diamond Pyramid Hardness (DPH). <P> Hardness is the property of a material that enables it to resist plastic deformation, usually by penetration. However, the term hardness may also refer to resistance to bending, scratching, abrasion or cutting. Vickers Hardness Test The Vickers hardness test method consists of indenting the test material with a diamond indenter, in the form of a right pyramid with a square base and an angle of 136 degrees between opposite faces subjected to a load of 1 to 100 kgf. <P> The hardness testing of plastics is most commonly measured by the Rockwell hardness test or Shore (Durometer) hardness test. Both methods measure the resistance of the plastic toward indentation. Both scales provide an empirical hardness value that doesn't correlate to other properties or fundamental characteristics. ASTM E-10 is a standard test for determining the Brinell hardness of metallic materials. The load applied in this test is usually 3,000, 1,500, or 500 kgf, so that the diameter of the indentation is in the range 2.5 to 6.0 mm. The load is applied steadily without a jerk. <P> Microhardness is the hardness of a material as determined by forcing an indenter such as a Vickers or Knoop indenter into the surface of the material under 15 to 1000 gf load; usually, the indentations are so small that they must be measured with a microscope. ASTM E-10 is a standard test for determining the Brinell hardness of metallic materials. The load applied in this test is usually 3,000, 1,500, or 500 kgf, so that the diameter of the indentation is in the range 2.5 to 6.0 mm. The load is applied steadily without a jerk. <P> Scratch hardness is the measure of how resistant a sample is to fracture or permanent plastic deformation due to friction from a sharp object. The principle is that an object made of a harder material will scratch an object made of a softer material. Another tool used to make these tests is the pocket hardness tester. This tool consists of a scale arm with graduated markings attached to a four-wheeled carriage. A scratch tool with a sharp rim is mounted at a predetermined angle to the testing surface. <P> The dictionary of Metallurgy defines the indentation hardness as the resistance of a material to indentation. This is the usual type of hardness test, in which a pointed or rounded indenter is pressed into a surface under a substantially static load. ASTM E-10 is a standard test for determining the Brinell hardness of metallic materials. The load applied in this test is usually 3,000, 1,500, or 500 kgf, so that the diameter of the indentation is in the range 2.5 to 6.0 mm. The load is applied steadily without a jerk. <P> The Rockwell hardness test is the most used and versatile of the hardness tests. For soft materials such as copper alloys, soft steel, and aluminum alloys a 1/16 diameter steel ball is used with a 100-kilogram load and the hardness is read on the B scale. ASTM E-10 is a standard test for determining the Brinell hardness of metallic materials. The load applied in this test is usually 3,000, 1,500, or 500 kgf, so that the diameter of the indentation is in the range 2.5 to 6.0 mm. The load is applied steadily without a jerk. <P> Rockwell Hardness Testing Hardness is a characteristic of a material, not a fundamental physical property. It is defined as the resistance to indentation, and it is determined by measuring the permanent depth of the indentation. Click here to learn more about hardness testing basics. The Rockwell hardness test method, as defined in ASTM E-18, is the most commonly used hardness test method. <P> Brinell Hardness Testing Hardness is a characteristic of a material, not a fundamental physical property. It is defined as the resistance to indentation, and it is determined by measuring the permanent depth of the indentation. More simply put, when using a fixed force (load) and a given indenter, the smaller the indentation, the harder the material. Indentation hardness value is obtained by measuring the depth or the area of the indentation using one of over 12 different test methods.

Labradors are athletic, playful, and the most popular breed of dog by registered ownership in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States (since 1991). 1 Coat: The Labrador Retriever's coat should be short and dense, but not wiry. 2 The coat is water-resistant, so the dog does not get cold when taking to water in the winter. 3 That means that the dog naturally has a slightly dry, oily coat. 4 Acceptable colours are black, yellow, and chocolate. <P> Depends. From a reputable breeder it could be anywhere from about $600-$2000. Sorry, but you will likely NOT find a well bred dog from a breeder who does all of the appropriate showing and genetic health testing for under $600. Those tests, showing and field trials cost money and the cost is passed along in the price of the pup from the breeding. <P> A black lab may come to a very expensive rate. As they are amazing, smart animals they may cost from 300$-1300$.It is so worth it though. We just got a baby black lab and he is awesome. Trust me ... you should really look into it. -snoopdoggie dog The cost all depends on the bloodlines of the dog. Champion bloodline pups may very well cost over $1000 but any pure and AKC registered lab pup will cost at least $200-$300 just with their paperwork and first shots and deworming. <P> The cost of the puppy depends on the parentage and pedigree. Here is the list of various variable influencing the cost of a puppy: · If the puppy is registered with kennel club of India the cost will be higher. · If the parents or the pedigree showing in registration papers are champion the cost will be even higher. · If you are buying from a reputed breeder and if he is promising about the quality, the price can go up. But speaking practically a good Labrador with out papers shall cost around 5k in the market. (Can be plus minus 1.5k depending on the health). Sometimes Male puppies are costlier than female puppies. <P> Black Lab Puppies for Sale-Shipped Worldwide! Finding the right Black Lab puppy can be dog gone hard work.

<P> In the Krampus' Castle in Bavaria, Steve is imprisoned to his surprise and spanked. Stan talks to Roger who brings up Santa, but Stan is nervous about confronting Santa after their last encounter. Despite this, they set off to the North Pole and are captured. Santa beats Stan as he tells what happened. <P> Krampus is celebrated on Krampusnacht, which takes place on the eve of St. Nicholas’ Day. In Austria, Northern Italy and other parts of Europe, party-goers masquerade as devils, wild-men, and witches to participate in Krampuslauf (Krampus Run). <P> Krampus is basically the anti-St. Nicholas, the opposite of Claus. He's a fugly mythical creature usually depicted like the devil. He has body hair, horns, hooves, and fangs. He carries with him chains and birch rods, which he uses to beat misbehaving children and whisk them off to Hell. <P> But just a supplement: Krampus has nothing to do with Christmas. He is Santa Claus’ “partner”. (By the way Santa Claus = Mikulas /mikulás from the slovakian name Of/). Nicholas mikulas mikulás puts some gift to the children at the dawn (December=6 miklos’miklós nicholas) name s day’to the. children s boots <P> Krampus is the dark companion of St. Nicholas, the traditional European winter gift-bringer who rewards good children each year on December 6. <P> Krampus was created as a counterpart to kindly St. Nicholas, who rewarded children with sweets. Krampus, in contrast, would swat wicked children and take them away to his lair. According to folklore, Krampus purportedly shows up in towns the night before December 6, known as Krampusnacht, or Krampus Night. <P> Zoe is a strange little girl, with a not so imaginary friend the Krampus who is the dark companion of kindly old St. Nicholas.

temp for cooking pork loin
|
<P> 1 Place the tenderloin in a roasting pan. 2 Place the pan in the oven and roast for about 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius). 3 Allow the pork to rest for 10 minutes before serving. 1 Place pork tenderloin in roasting pan. 2 Roast for 30 minutes. 3 Turn the pork over and roast for another 25 minutes. 4 The pork tenderloin is ready when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius). <P> The National Pork Board recommends cooking pork chops, roasts, and tenderloin to an internal temperature between 145° F. (medium rare) and 160° F. (medium), followed by a 3 minute rest. Since large cuts increase approximately 10° F. while resting, remove them from the heat at 150° F. followed by a 10 minute rest. <P> Roast the pork for 10 minutes: Set the pork in the pan. (It's fine if your pork tenderloin is a little long for the pan; just bend it to fit as we did here.) Return the pan to the oven. Roast for 10 minutes. Flip the pork, reduce the heat, and roast another 10 to 15 minutes: Flip the pork to the other side. Reduce the oven temperature to 400°F and continue roasting another 10 to 15 minutes. The pork is done when its internal temperature registers 140°F to 145°F in the thickest part of the meat (20 to 25 minutes total). Rest for 10 minutes before serving: Transfer the pork to a cutting board, tent with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing <P> 1 Turn the pork over and roast for another 25 minutes. 2 The pork tenderloin is ready when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius). 3 Remove the pork from the oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving. 1 Place pork tenderloin in roasting pan. 2 Roast for 30 minutes. 3 Turn the pork over and roast for another 25 minutes. 4 The pork tenderloin is ready when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius). <P> 1 Roast for 30 minutes. 2 Turn the pork over and roast for another 25 minutes. 3 The pork tenderloin is ready when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius). 4 Remove the pork from the oven and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving. 1 Place pork tenderloin in roasting pan. 2 Roast for 30 minutes. 3 Turn the pork over and roast for another 25 minutes. 4 The pork tenderloin is ready when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius). <P> 1 Remove pork from oven, lightly cover with foil, and let rest 5-10 minutes to redistribute internal juices. 2 Roast should be done, very slightly pink in the center, and very moist. 3 After resting 10 minutes, the roast should reach a safe 145-150 degrees. 1 Preheat oven to 500 degrees. 2 Remove tenderloin from refrigerator. 3 Season meat as desired. 4 Place seasoned meat in an uncovered roasting pan on a shelf in the bottom 1/3 of your oven. 5 Bake EXACTLY 5 1/2 minutes PER POUND. 6 Adjust +/- according to your oven's accuracy and heat retention. 7 NOTE:. <P> With a pork tenderloin: Season the meat, sear all sides in a very hot pan, and then finish in the oven at 350°F (175°C) degrees until the internal temp. hits 145°F (63°C). Then let it sit for 10 minutes, and cut 'er up. If you need it done faster, a higher oven temp will accomplish this, but may compromise quality. I always season my pork tenderloins, then pan-sear for a crispy brown outer crust, then put into the oven at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes to one hour. At 45 minutes, I begin checking the internal temperature of the meat. <P> Whether you are looking for a pork loin cooking time or a pork chop cooking time, use the following chart as a cooking time and temperature guide for pork cuts (including ham) that are cooked in the oven, grilled, or are inserted into an oven bag prior to cooking. <P> That could be pork’s new slogan after the United States Department of Agriculture on Tuesday said it was lowering its safe cooking temperature to 145 degrees, from the longtime standard of 160. The new recommendation is in line with what many cookbook authors and chefs have been saying for years.

what type of tree did the indians use for marker trees
|
<P> John Nuyen added a new photo to Native American Trail Marker Trees: Marking Paths Through the Wilderness's timeline — with Karen Blank. <P> American Indians used trees to not only mark a trail, but also to signal the presence of important features, some of which were critical for survival. Today, some call these old road signs Indian marker trees. They are known by others as trail trees, thong trees, or culturally modified trees. Years ago, Linda Pelon, one of the first anthropologists researching the subject, taught me the term of Indian marker tree. I will stick with this name. <P> It, like numerous others across the country known as Indian marker trees or trail trees, was bent in its youth by American Indians to indicate such things as a trail or a low-water creek crossing. <P> Interview with Mr. Downes on his book Native American Trail Marker Trees. As a special bonus, if you purchase your book from our site through PayPal, the Author will personally sign your copy of the book and will ship it to you for free. <P> The trees, he said, were like an early road map” for American Indians. The trees are known as Indian marker trees or trail trees and were bent by Native Americans in their youth to mark trails or other landmarks, like a creek crossing. Houser’s mission: to protect the historic trees and their stories. <P> The Great Lakes Trail Marker Tree Society’s website has a bevy of photographs of Indian marker trees. The group’s founder, Dennis Downes, released a book in 2011 called Native American Trail Marker Trees. It documents the history of the trees through Downes’s travels of North America.

what is cohesion
|
<P> Cohesion. Definition. noun. The act, state or process of sticking together. (physics) The intermolecular force that holds together alike molecules in a substance. In chemistry and physics, cohesion refers to the sticking together of alike molecules, such as water molecule being attracted to another water molecule. Cohesion also causes water molecules to form drops. <P> Cohesion in water has to do with properties of water molecules that make them 'stick' together. To better understand water cohesion, we need to zoom in on a teaspoonful of water. In this teaspoon, there are more than a hundred drops of water. And in each individual drop, we can find millions of water molecules. Lesson Summary. Cohesion in water is a property of water that makes its molecules attracted to each other. A water molecule is made of one oxygen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms. The molecule has an unbalanced charge, with the oxygen side being slightly more negative and the hydrogen side being more positive. <P> Adhesion is the force of attraction between molecules of different substances while cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same substance. + 178 others found this useful.

what is a delta in geography
|
<P> Formation [edit]. River deltas form when a river carrying sediment reaches either (1) a body of standing water, such as a lake, ocean, or reservoir, (2) another river that cannot remove the sediment quickly enough to stop delta formation, or (3) an inland region where the water spreads out and deposits sediments. This occurs where a river enters an ocean, sea, estuary, lake, reservoir, or (more rarely) another river that cannot transport away the supplied sediment. Despite a popular legend, this use of the word delta was not coined by Herodotus. <P> One of the world s largest river deltas is the Nile Delta, located in northern Egypt, where the Nile River expands and drains into the Mediterranean Sea. The Nile is considered to be an arcuate delta (arc-shaped), because it resembles a triangle or lotus flower when seen from above. <P> A Delta is the land formed by sediment deposited by the end stages of a river. It often has a trianglular shape like the Greek letter Delta, hence the name. Usually its where the river meets the sea or other body of water. In geographical terms, a delta is defined as the alluvial deposit at the mouth of a river........ It is usually triangular in shape......... The term delta is also used to define a difference in temperature....... <P> Define delta in geography? A river delta is an extension of a river's mouth, where the faster flowing water from a river, suddenly slows when it reaches an open body of water (e.g. a lake) and so deposi … ts the suspended sediments in a zone around the mouth, causing an elevated river bar. <P> 2. an object resembling a capital delta in shape. 3.

A delta is a landform where the mouth of a river flows into an ocean, sea, desert, estuary, lake or another river. It builds up sediment outwards into the flat area which the river's flow encounters (as a deltaic deposit) transported by the water and set down as the currents slow. A delta is where a river divides in a low triangular area before entering a larger body of water. Good luck with your homework, kid. Come again. Check out this website: http://web.bryant.edu/~dlm1/sc366/deltas... <P> Sacramento Delta at flood stage, early 2009. A river delta is a landform that forms from deposition of sediment carried by a river as the flow leaves its mouth and enters slower-moving or standing water. This occurs where a river enters an ocean, sea, estuary, lake, reservoir, or (more rarely) another river that cannot transport away the supplied sediment. Despite a popular legend, this use of the word delta was not coined by Herodotus. <P> A river delta is an extension of a river's mouth, where the faster flowing water from a river, suddenly slows when it reaches an open body of water (e.g. a lake) and so deposi … ts the suspended sediments in a zone around the mouth, causing an elevated river bar. <P> A river delta is low-lying plain or landform that occurs at the mouth of a river near where the river flows into the ocean or other body of water. Deltas are important to both human activities and fish and other wildlife because they are normally home to very fertile soil as well as a large amount of vegetation. The upper delta plain is the area nearest to the land. It is usually the area with the least water and highest elevation. The subaqueous delta is the portion of the delta that is closest to the sea or body of water into which the river flows. This area is usually past the shoreline and it is below water level. <P> Identification. A delta is a triangular-shaped area of sediment--consisting of small rocks, sand, clay and silt--that forms where a river flows into an ocean or lake. Deltas, unlike many land forms that are carved out of land by water, are actually built up over time as water drops more sediment

which gland produces calcium
|
<P> The parathyroid glands are four tiny glands, located in the neck, that control the body's calcium levels. Each gland is about the size of a grain of rice (weighs approximately 30 milligrams and is 3-4 millimeters in diameter). <P> Parathyroid glands are small glands of the endocrine system which are located in the neck behind the thyroid. Parathyroid glands control the calcium in our bodies--how much calcium is in our bones, and how much calcium is in our blood. <P> If the amount of calcium or Vitamin D is low the gland produces parathyroid hormone, and if the amount of calcium is high the gland stops producing the hormones. Through this mechanism, there is minute-to-minute control of the level of calcium in the blood. <P> The parathyroids produce a hormone called parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTHPTH-parathyroid hormone raises the blood calcium level by: 1 breaking down the bone (where most of the body's calcium is stored) and causing calcium release. 2 increasing the body's ability to absorb calcium from food. <P> Learn what parathyroid glands are, where the parathyroid glands are located, and how the parathyroid glands control our calcium levels. Parathyroid Overview starts on this page. Hyperparathyroidism is introduced. Regulation of blood calcium is discussed along with the meaning of high blood calcium. <P> The thyroid gland and parathyroid glands are a group of endocrine glands located in the base of the neck. These glands play a vital role in maintaining the body’s homeostasis by producing hormones that regulate the body’s metabolism and free calcium levels. <P> The parathyroid glands are four tiny glands located within the thyroid gland in the neck. They produce parathyroid hormone, which helps control the amount of calcium in the blood. If your parathyroid gland is too big (enlarged), it can cause your body to produce too much parathyroid hormone (hyperparathyroidism). <P> Parathyroid glands are small glands of the endocrine system that are located behind the thyroid. There are four parathyroid glands which are normally about the size and shape of a grain of rice. They are shown in this picture as the mustard yellow glands behind the pink thyroid gland. <P> Calcitonin, a hormone produced by the thyroid gland that also regulates ECF calcium levels and serves to counteract the calcium-producing effects of PTH. The adult body contains as much as 1 kg of calcium. Most of this calcium is found in bone and teeth. The four parathyroid glands secrete the parathyroid hormone (PTH).

what is the type of orbit for earth
|
<P> Satellites are usually classified according to the type of orbit they are in. There are four types of orbit associated with satellites, and the type of orbit dictates a satellite's use. <P> 1 Semi-synchronous orbit: An orbit with an orbital period equal to half of the average rotational period of the body being orbited and in the same direction of rotation as that body. 2 For Earth this means a period of just under 12 hours at an altitude of approximately 20,200 km (12,544.2 miles) if the orbit is circular. 1 Geosynchronous orbit (GSO): An orbit around the Earth with a period equal to one sidereal day, which is Earth's average rotational period of 23 hours, 56 minutes, 4.091 seconds. 2 For a nearly circular orbit, this implies an altitude of approximately 35,786 kilometers (22,236 mi). <P> For a very low orbit of around 100 miles a velocity of about 17500 miles per hour is needed and this means that the satellite will orbit the Earth in about 90 minutes. At an altitude of 22 000 miles a velocity of just less than 7000 miles per hour is needed giving an orbit time of about 24 hours. <P> The planet’s distance from the Sun also varies as it orbits. In fact, the Earth is never the same distance from the Sun from day to day. When the Earth is closest to the Sun, it is said to be at perihelion. This occurs around January 3rd each year, when the Earth is at a distance of about 147,098,074 km. Next, there is the nature of the Earth’s orbit. Rather than being a perfect circle, the Earth moves around the Sun in an extended circular or oval pattern. This is what is known as an “elliptical” orbit. <P> Types of Orbits. What we have just described in the previous section is how a satellite orbits the Earth-it is just like the baseball that goes all the way around the Earth. We can use Kepler's third law to figure out how far out a satellite must be to spend all its time over one part of Earth. The answer is that a satellite has to be placed approximately 22,000 miles (36,000 km) away from the surface of the Earth in order to remain in a GEO orbit. <P> A low Earth orbit (LEO) is an orbit around Earth with an altitude between 160 kilometers (99 mi) (orbital period of about 88 minutes), and 2,000 kilometers (1,200 mi) (about 127 minutes). Objects below approximately 160 kilometers (99 mi) will experience very rapid orbital decay and altitude loss. Objects in LEO orbit Earth between the atmosphere and below the inner Van Allen radiation belt. The altitude is usually not less than 300 km for satellites, as that would be impractical due to atmospheric drag. <P> A low Earth orbit is normally at an altitude of less than 1000 km and could be as low as 160 km above the Earth. Satellites in this circular orbit travel at a speed of around 7.8 km per second. At this speed, a satellite takes approximately 90 minutes to circle the Earth. <P> Two medium Earth orbits are notable: the semi-synchronous orbit and the Molniya orbit. The semi-synchronous orbit is a near-circular orbit (low eccentricity) 26,560 kilometers from the center of the Earth (about 20,200 kilometers above the surface). A satellite at this height takes 12 hours to complete an orbit. When a satellite reaches exactly 42,164 kilometers from the center of the Earth (about 36,000 kilometers from Earth’s surface), it enters a sort of “sweet spot” in which its orbit matches Earth’s rotation. <P> There are essentially three types of Earth orbits: high Earth orbit, medium Earth orbit, and low Earth orbit. Many weather and some communications satellites tend to have a high Earth orbit, farthest away from the surface. Inclination is the angle of the orbit in relation to Earth’s equator. A satellite that orbits directly above the equator has zero inclination. If a satellite orbits from the north pole (geographic, not magnetic) to the south pole, its inclination is 90 degrees.

what type of stimuli does the primary visual cortex respond to
|
<P> Introduction The diagram here shows that visual stimuli activate a structure called the primary visual cortex. The activation is in a fold in the cortex called the calcarine sulcus. This activation, on the right side of the brain, only occurs when a visual stimulus appears on the subject's left. In this session we will learn 1) how the signals from the eye reach the primary visual cortex, 2) what cells in this area do with the signals they receive from the eye, and 3) where signals go from here. Optic chiasm Images seen on one side are processed by the opposite side of the brain. <P> Introduction Here we see that visual stimuli activate a structure called primary visual cortex. The activation is around a fold in the cortex called the calcarine sulcus. This activation, on the right side of the brain, only occurs when a visual stimulus appears on the subject's left. Primary Visual Cortex (area V1) LGN projects to the primary visual cortex located at the back of the head, mostly on the medial (inside) side. Primary visual cortex has many names: V1, area 17, and striate cortex. <P> The receptive field size of neurons in primary visual cortex depends strongly on the stimulus contrast. The size can be more than two times larger when measured with low contrast stimuli than when measured with high contrast stimuli. Figure 1: Receptive field sizes of neurons in the primary visual cortex (V1) and inferotemporal cortex (IT) of a primate. The receptive fields are illustrated in dotted lines and the sizes are measured in visual degrees. <P> For example, simple cells in the visual cortex of the domestic cat (Felis catus), respond to edges – a feature which is more likely to occur in objects and organisms in the environment. Certain pretectal thalamic neurons, type TH3, showed a preference for big moving objects and the anti-worm configuration of moving bar stimuli. It is suggested that the selectivity of tectal prey feature detectors, type T5.2, is determined by inhibitory influences of pretectal anti-worm detectors of the type TH3. <P> LGN neurons project to the primary visual cortex, which is located at the back of the head mostly on the medial side. The primary visual cortex has many names: V1, area 17, & striate cortex. The primary visual cortex lies in the fold of the calcarine sulcus. In this session we will learn 1) how the signals from the eye reach the primary visual cortex, 2) what cells in this area do with the signals they receive from the eye, and 3) where signals go from here. Optic chiasm Images seen on one side are processed by the opposite side of the brain. <P> The Physiology of the Senses Transformations For Perception and Action Lecture 2 - The Primary Visual Cortex Tutis Vilis http://www.physpharm.fmd.uwo.ca/undergrad/sensesweb Introduction Here we see that visual stimuli activate a structure called primary visual cortex. <P> The visual cortex is made up of Brodmann area 17 (the primary visual cortex), and Brodmann areas 18 and 19, the extrastriate cortical areas. The primary (parts of the cortex that receive sensory inputs from the thalamus) visual cortex is also known as V1, V isual area one, and the striate cortex. The extrastriate areas consist of visual areas two (V2), three (V3), four (V4), and five (V5). The visual cortex of the brain is the part of the cerebral cortex responsible for processing visual information. This article addresses the ventral/dorsal model of the visual cortex. Another model for the perceptual/conceptual neuropsychological model of the visual cortex was studied by Raftopolous. <P> The flow of visual information from the primary visual cortex to other cortical areas depends on the type of information being processed. Information used to locate objects and detect their motion is sent to more superior cortex (a.k.a. the dorsal stream). The information from the eye is carried by the axons of the retinal ganglion cells (the 3° visual afferent) to the midbrain and diencephalon. This chapter will provide more information about visual pathway organization and the visual processing that occurs within the brain. <P> Simple cells: Neurons in the primary visual cortex, whose receptive fields have separate subregions that respond either to light or dark spots. The discovery of simple cells in visual cortex and the first use of the term ‘simple cell’ date back to Hubel and Wiesel (1962).

what is the normal esr level
|
<P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), also called a sedimentation rate or Westergren ESR, is the rate at which red blood cells sediment in a period of one hour. It is a common hematology test, and is a non-specific measure of inflammation. Note: mm/h. = millimeters per hour. Westergren's original normal values (men 3 mm and women 7 mm) made no allowance for a person's age and in 1967 it was confirmed that ESR values tend to rise with age and to be generally higher in women. <P> The normal sedimentation rate (Westergren method) for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, females is 0-20 millimeters per hour. The sedimentation rate may normally be slightly higher in the elderly. Medically reviewed by a Board Certified Family Practice Physician. A sedimentation rate is common blood test that is used to detect and monitor inflammation in the body. The sedimentation rate is also called the erythrocyte sedimentation rate because it is a measure of the red blood cells (erythrocytes) sedimenting in a tube over a given period of time. <P> To learn what the results mean for you, talk with your healthcare provider. ESR is measured in millimeters per hour (mm/h). The normal values are: 0 to 10 mm/h in children. 0 to 15 mm/h in men younger than 50. 0 to 20 mm/h in men older than 50. 0 to 20 mm/h in women younger than 50. 0 to 30 mm/h in women older than 50. ESR above 100 mm/h is most likely caused by an active disease. <P> ESR is an abbreviated form for erythrocyte sedimentation rate. It is often referred to as the sedimentation rate or the sed rate. An ESR blood test is usually done to check and understand the degree of inflammation in the body such as cancers, various kinds of infections as well as autoimmune disorders and diseases. It is a non specific and an easy test which is really cost effective as compared to other blood tests <P> ESR is said to be a non-specific test because an elevated result often indicates the presence of inflammation but does not tell the health practitioner exactly where the inflammation is in the body or what is causing it. An ESR can be affected by other conditions besides inflammation. An ESR may be ordered when a condition or disease is suspected of causing inflammation somewhere in the body. There are numerous inflammatory conditions that may be detected using this test. <P> Sedimentation Rate (Sed Rate). Guide. The sedimentation rate (sed rate) blood test measures how quickly red blood cells (erythrocytes) settle in a test tube in one hour. The more red cells that fall to the bottom of the test tube in one hour, the higher the sed rate. <P> The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR or sed rate) is a relatively simple, inexpensive, non-specific test that has been used for many years to help detect inflammation associated with conditions such as infections, cancers, and autoimmune diseases. An ESR may be ordered when a condition or disease is suspected of causing inflammation somewhere in the body. There are numerous inflammatory conditions that may be detected using this test. <P> ESR is used to help diagnose certain specific inflammatory diseases, temporal arteritis, systemic vasculitis and polymyalgia rheumatica. A significantly elevated ESR is one of the main test results used to support the diagnosis. An ESR may be ordered when a condition or disease is suspected of causing inflammation somewhere in the body. There are numerous inflammatory conditions that may be detected using this test. <P> C-reactive protein (CRP) is a marker of inflammation in the body. Therefore, its level in the blood increases if there is any inflammation in the body. C-reactive protein, along with other markers of inflammation (erythrocyte sedimentation rate, or ESR) are also sometimes referred to as acute phase reactants. C-reactive protein is produced by the cells in the liver.

<P> Weekly average sea surface temperature for the World Ocean during the first week of February 2011, during a period of La Nina. niña The temperature of the ocean at depth lags the Earth's atmosphere temperature by 15 days per 10 metres (33 ft), which means for locations like the Aral Sea, temperatures near its bottom reach a maximum in December and a minimum in May and June. <P> Sea surface temperature—the average temperature of water at the surface of the global ocean—is a key indicator of the ocean's staus. Because the ocean is constantly interacting with the atmosphere, changes in sea surface temperature can have profound effects on other aspects of Earth's climate. From 2011-2012, as a weak La Nina niña transitioned to more neutral, conditions average sea surface temperature for the global ocean warmed by about.0 1º. celsius <P> Sea surface temperature is the temperature of the top millimeter of the ocean's surface. Sea surface temperatures influence weather, including hurricanes, as well as plant and animal life in the ocean. Like Earth's land surface, sea surface temperatures are warmer near the equator and colder near the poles. Warm ocean waters help form clouds and affect weather patterns. The sea's surface temperature also affects life in the ocean by influencing where and when tiny ocean plants (called phytoplankton) will grow. For all of these reasons scientists monitor the sea's surface temperature. <P> From 1970-1999, global sea surface temperature rose at an average rate of 0.06 to 0.11º Celsius per decade. The rate decreased from 2000-2012 due to a prevalence of La Nina-niña like. conditions From 2011-2012, as a weak La Nina niña transitioned to more neutral, conditions average sea surface temperature for the global ocean warmed by about.0 1º. celsius <P> Sea surface temperature increased over the 20th century and continues to rise. From 1901 through 2012, temperatures rose at an average rate of 0.13°F per decade. Sea surface temperatures have been higher during the past three decades than at any other time since reliable observations began in 1880.

best setting temperature for freezer
|
<P> Report Abuse. Typically you cannot set the temperature on the freezer section of a fridge freezer. Mark 6 is actually the coldest and on a new fridge freezer can often cause food to freeze solid particularly at the back! Correct setting varies according to model and things like wear and surrounding temperature/season. Try it on 3 but the best way to judge temperature is with a fridge thermometer. <P> Last updated: 1 May, 2014. The ideal temperature setting for a refrigerator is 3ºC and for a freezer it's -18ºC. The only exceptions are fridge-freezers in the RB*** range, for which we recommend -19°C (as -18ºC isn't an available option for these models). To adust the temperature follow the steps outlined below: <P> In order to keep food out of the Danger Zone, your fridge must be set between 32-40° F (0-4 degrees Celsius). Your freezer must be below 32° F (0° Celsius). I keep mine as cold as it will go. Keep your freezer efficient by half-filling it with bottles of water. <P> The ideal freezer temperature is 0 Fahrenheit (-18 Celsius) for storing food. And -10 Fahrenheit (-23 Celsius) is recommended when freezing food. The faster food freezes the smaller the ice crystals. The smaller the ice crystals the smaller the change in texture and better quality when thawed. Ideal Freezer Temperature. Setting the ideal freezer temperature is vital to keeping your food safe. Freezing food stops the growth of bacteria, it does not kill it. So if the temperature gets too warm bacteria can start to grow again. But your freezer does more than that. <P> 34°F - 40°F is the ideal refrigerator temperature range. Some Web sites just say under 40°F, but not so cold to freeze fresh foods. Dairy products and meats keep best at the low end of the temperature range. A freezer should be set at 0°F, or lower, if possible. If the temperature gets warmer than +5°F, ice cream will be too soft and won't keep well. A properly working food freezer will operate in the range of -10°F to +2°F, and may go up to around +8°F briefly during the defrost cycle if it is of the frost free type. <P> 1 Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). 2 The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). 3 Check temperatures periodically. 4 Appliance thermometers are the best way of knowing these temperatures and are generally inexpensive. 1 Also, when putting food away, don't crowd the refrigerator or freezer so tightly that air can't circulate. 2 Keep your appliances at the proper temperatures. 3 Keep the refrigerator temperature at or below 40° F (4° C). 4 <P> Normally a domestic freezer is best set to −18 °C (0 °F) or colder, as that's what the expiration dates for many food items are based on. It's also a requirement for freezers in restaurants, supermarkets & other places that sell food (at least here in Europe) to maintain a temperature of at most -18 °C. In order to keep food out of the Danger Zone, your fridge must be set between 32-40°F (0-4°C). Your freezer must be below 32°F (0°C). I keep mine as cold as it will go. Keep your freezer efficient by half-filling it with bottles of water.

<P> behaviorism. noun be·hav·ior·ism. : a school of psychology that takes the objective evidence of behavior (as measured responses to stimuli) as the only concern of its research and the only basis of its theory without reference to conscious experience—compare cognitive psychology. : a school of psychology that takes the objective evidence of behavior (as measured responses to stimuli) as the only concern of its research and the only basis of its theory without reference to conscious experience — compare introspectionism. — be·hav·ior·is·tic \-ˌhā-vyə-ˈris-tik\ adjective. <P> Not to be confused with Behavioralism. Behaviorism (or behaviourism) is an approach to psychology that focuses on an individual's behavior. It combines elements of philosophy, methodology, and psychological theory <P> Home › Perspectives › Behaviorism. Behaviorism (also called the behaviorist approach) was the primary paradigm in psychology between 1920 to 1950 and is based on a number of underlying assumptions regarding methodology and behavioral analysis: * Psychology should be seen as a science. An obvious advantage of behaviorism is its ability to clearly define behavior and to measure changes in behavior. According to the law of parsimony, the fewer assumptions a theory makes, the better and the more credible it is. <P> Behaviorism is primarily concerned with observable and measurable aspects of human behavior. In defining behavior, behaviorist learning theories emphasize changes in behavior that result from stimulus-response associations made by the learner. <P> The initial assumption is that behavior can be explained and further described using behavioral theories. For instance, John Watson and B.F. Skinner advocate the theory that behavior can be acquired through conditioning. Also known as general behavior theory. BEHAVIOR THEORY: Each behavioral theory is an advantage to learning, because it provides teachers with a new and different approach.. No related posts. <P> Behavioral theories of leadership are classified as such because they focus on the study of specific behaviors of a leader. For behavioral theorists, a leader behavior is the best predictor of his leadership influences and as a result, is the best determinant of his or her leadership success. <P> Behaviorism. Behaviorism is a worldview that assumes a learner is essentially passive, responding to environmental stimuli. The learner starts off as a clean slate (i.e. tabula rasa) and behavior is shaped through positive reinforcement or negative reinforcement. <P> Problem-behavior theory is a systematic, multivariate, social-psychological conceptual framework derived initially from the basic concepts of value and expectation in Rotter's (1954, 1982) social learning theory and from Merton's (1957) concept of anomie. <P> Definition of BEHAVIORISM. : a school of psychology that takes the objective evidence of behavior (as measured responses to stimuli) as the only concern of its research and the only basis of its theory without reference to conscious experience — compare introspectionism. — be·hav·ior·is·tic \-ˌhā-vyə-ˈris-tik\ adjective.

The EMEA region consists of more land mass than any of the other business regions (APAC, AMER, or LATAM). The EMEA region also spans 4 continents, Europe, Africa, Asia, and because of Greenland North America as well. <P> DEFINITION of 'Europe, Middle East and Africa-EMEA'. The region classification for a division of an international company that operates in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The EMEA abbreviation will often be placed alongside the international company's name to denote that its operations are focused on the EMEA. For example, Microsoft EMEA is run by a different CEO than Microsoft USA and its focus is solely on the EMEA region. <P> The EMEA region is a term used for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. There are; 58 countries in Europe 56 countries in Africa 14 countries in the Middle East For a grand total of 128 countries in the EMEA. 23 people found this useful. Edit. <P> EMEA: Europe, the Middle East and Africa, marked on a worldmap. EMEA (or EMEIA if India is included), is a shorthand designation meaning Europe, the Middle East and Africa. It is used by institutions, governments as well as in marketing and business. It is particularly common among North American companies. The region is generally accepted to include all European nations, all African Nations, and extends east to Iran, but including Russia. Typically this does not include independent overseas territories of mainland countries in the region, such as French Guyana. <P> EMEA Country List in Alphabetical Order.

male seminal vesicles what they do and what they are
|
<P> The seminal vesicles (Latin: glandulae vesiculosae), vesicular glands, or seminal glands, are a pair of simple tubular glands posteroinferior to the urinary bladder of some male mammals. Seminal vesicles are located within the pelvis. Each vesicle forms as an outpocketing of the wall of the ampulla of one vas deferens. The seminal vesicles develop as one of three structures of the male reproductive system that develops at the junction between the urethra and vas deferens. Both the urethra and vas deferens are derived from the mesonephric ducts, structures that develop from mesoderm <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. In male animals, the seminal vesicles are two pouches, each connected to one vas deferens. They produce an additional fluid that combines with the sperm to produce semen. The seminal vesicle is also called seminal gland. In some animals they also store the semen for later release. The seminal vesicles are convoluted pouch-like structures lying posterior to the base of the urinary bladder, in front of the rectum. They secrete an alkaline viscous fluid co … ntaining fructose, prostaglandins and fibrinogen that make up about 60% of the fluid volume of semen. <P> The seminal vesicles are paired organs of the male genitourinary system. Specifically, they are genital organs. The male genital organs include the penis, testes, excretory genital ducts, ductus deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate, and bulbourethral glands. Of these organs, the seminal vesicles, prostate, and bulbourethral glands are considered accessory glandular structures. <P> Introduction. The seminal vesicles are accessory glands of the male reproductive system. They are a pair of contorted or twisted tubes, which are located between the bladder and the rectum. At puberty, the seminal vesicles form sacs and contribute up to 85% of the seminal fluid. The seminal vesicles contribute up to 85% of the seminal fluid, with the prostate gland secreting the majority of the rest. The seminal vesicles secrete a yellow, alkaline and viscous fluid that contains fructose, fibrinogen, prostaglandins and vitamin C, as well as other specific proteins. <P> The seminal vesicles are convoluted pouch-like structures lying posterior to the base of the urinary bladder, in front of the rectum.

Contributed by: V.G =) Often called as vescicular glands,seminal vescicles are present postero inferior to the urinary bladder of male mammals.They release a fluid which finally becomes semen.It is alkaline in nature and helps in neutralising the vaginal acidity. <P> Seminal gland. The seminal gland, more commonly referred to as the seminal vesicle, holds the liquid that mixes with sperm to form semen. Semen combines fluid elements from the epididymis, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and vas deferens. Each body part plays a key role in semen production. The fluids help the sperm swim towards the egg and keep the sperm nourished during the transit process. <P> The seminal vesicles are a pair of glands that are positioned below the urinary bladder and lateral to the vas deferens. Each vesicle consists of a single tube folded and coiled on itself, with occasional diverticula in its wall. Each vesicle forms as an outpocketing of the wall of the ampulla of one vas deferens. The seminal vesicles develop as one of three structures of the male reproductive system that develops at the junction between the urethra and vas deferens.
