cymose inflorescence definition
|
<P> © A Dictionary of Biology 2004, originally published by Oxford University Press 2004. cymose inflorescence (cyme; definite inflorescence) A type of flowering shoot (see inflorescence) in which the first-formed flower develops from the growing region at the top of the flower stalk (see illustration). In a dichasial cyme (or dichasium), the development of the flower at the apex is followed by two new flower axes developing from buds opposite one another, as in plants of the family Caryophyllaceae (such as stitchwort). <P> A raceme (/reɪˈsiːm/ or /rəˈsiːm/) is an unbranched, indeterminate type of inflorescence bearing pedicellate flowers — flowers having short floral stalks called pedicels — along its axis. In botany, axis means a shoot, in this case one bearing the flowers. <P> racemose inflorescence (indefinite inflorescence) A type of flowering shoot (see inflorescence) in which the growing region at the tip of the flower stalk continues to produce new flower buds during growth. As a result, the youngest flowers are at the top and the oldest flowers are at the base of the stalk. In a flattened inflorescence, the youngest flowers are in the centre and the oldest flowers are on the outside. Types of racemose inflorescence include the capitulum, catkin, corymb, raceme, spadix, spike, and umbel (see illustration). <P> Inflorescence Definition. Inflorescence is defined as the a cluster or group of flowers arranged on a stem which composes of a main branch or a complicated arrangement of branches. Inflorescence is basically the part of the shoot of flowering plants where the flowers formed are modified accordingly. An inflorescence is defined as the reproductive part of a plant which bears a group of flowers in a specific pattern. <P> An inflorescence is a group or cluster of flowers arranged on a stem that is composed of a main branch or a complicated arrangement of branches. Morphologically, it is the part of the shoot of seed plants where flowers are formed and which is accordingly modified. The single flowers are there replaced by a simple inflorescence, which can be both a racemose or a cymose one. Compound inflorescences are composed of branched stems and can involve complicated arrangements that are difficult to trace back to the main branch. <P> Adj. 1. cymose-having a usually flat-topped flower cluster in which the main and branch stems each end in a flower that opens before those below it or to its side. phytology, botany-the branch of biology that studies plants. determinate-not continuing to grow indefinitely at the apex; determinate growth. <P> Inflorescence can also be defined as the reproductive portion of a plant that bears a cluster of flowers in a specific pattern. The single flowers are there replaced by a simple inflorescence, which can be both a racemose or a cymose one. Compound inflorescences are composed of branched stems and can involve complicated arrangements that are difficult to trace back to the main branch. <P> Type of inflorescence that can be seen in plants in which main stem and each subsequent branch ends in a flower. The oldest flower is on the apex and the youngest towards the base. <P> One in which the main axis and, in a compound raceme, each of its main branches does not end in a flower but continues to grow bearing flowers in acropetal succession on its lateral branches, eg raceme, spike, panicle. Also indefinite or indeterminate in.

how long does it take to recover from a torn anterior lateral ligament
|
<P> Treatments. Lateral collateral ligament tears do not heal as well as medial collateral ligament tears do. Grade 3 lateral collateral ligament tears may require surgery. In some cases, all that is required is rest, wearing a brace, taking pain relievers such as ibuprofen and having physical therapy. <P> It may take up to eight weeks to fully recover, depending on the grade of your injury. If the lateral collateral ligament was torn where it attaches to the thighbone (femur) or shinbone (tibia), the surgeon will re-attach the ligament to the bone using large stitches or a metal bone staple. <P> Finally, the deltoid ligament (link to http://www.bartleby.com/107/illus354) on the inner, or medial, side of the ankle may be injured. These injuries are referred to as medial ankle sprains and produce pain on the inner, or medial, side of the ankle. <P> Most ankle ligament injuries are caused when the foot twists inwards. All of the body's weight is then placed on the lateral ankle ligaments. The anterior and middle fibres of the ankle stretch or tear a in sprain or strain of the ankle. Occasionally small pieces of bone may be torn off with the ligaments. In a few cases, a twisting force on the ankle may cause other damage. <P> Grade 1 lateral ligament sprain symptoms include tenderness on the outside of the knee over the ligament. Usually there will be little or no swelling. When the knee is bent to 30 degrees and force applied to the inside of the knee which puts the ligament under stress, pain is felt but there is no joint laxity. <P> It all depends on the ligament and the grade of the tear. For example a grade 3 tear on the ACL(anterior cruciate ligament) can be devastating and usually requires surgery and recovery times of up to a year. So it all depends on the ligament and injury to it. <P> Collateral ligaments. These are found on the sides of your knee. The medial collateral ligament is on the inside and the lateral collateral ligament is on the outside. They control the sideways motion of your knee and brace it against unusual movement. Cruciate ligaments. These are found inside your knee joint.

cost per square foot to add onto a house
|
<P> Examples: 1 Home addition cost estimates of $80 to $130 per square foot for a basic family room addition is common. 2 If the home addition includes a bathroom and/or a kitchen, the room addition costs can easily escalate to $200-250 per square foot. 3 Quality and materials used are the other cost factors in a home addition. <P> Building costs vary across the nation, working out to an average of $100 a square foot. Generally speaking, it's less expensive to build and remodel homes in the south and midwest. Building and remodeling in states like TX, GA, AL, NC, SC, LA, OK, and TN can usually be done for $60-$8 <P> 1 The above figures place the cost of the addition at $124 per square foot. 2 This pricing structure assumes that carpenters charge an average of $70 per hour, electricians between $65 to $85 per hour, and painters between $20 and $35 per hour. <P> 1. Decide on the square footage of the room you will be adding to your home. Room additions can cost up to 50 percent higher, between $80 and $130 per square foot before considering wiring and plumbing, than that same room had been constructed with the rest of the house, according to the Home Addition Plus website. <P> Framing an addition averages $6 to $8 a square foot nationally. That's the cost of building walls and adding or extending a roof with rafters or trusses. It does not include drywall, doors or windows, insulation, finishing trim or utilities. <P> Adding on to any home, whether it is an expansion of the existing footprint or an entirely new level is a very complex project. For this discussion we will examine the requirements and general costs associated with adding a single-story 192 square foot (12'x16') room. <P> Costs Vary Widely. Nationally, estimates of room addition costs vary from $80 to $250 a square foot. A simple room addition with a basic foundation and no plumbing generally costs at least $100 a square foot with typical internal finishing, no expansion of a heating/cooling unit, and minimal structural changes. <P> 1 Home addition cost estimates of $80 to $130 per square foot for a basic family room addition is common. 2 If the home addition includes a bathroom and/or a kitchen, the room addition costs can easily escalate to $200-250 per square foot.

what did elvis always carry around with him
|
<P> Elvis didn't like to have new people around. We were in a cocoon at Graceland.'. The birth of their daughter resulted in a wounding sexual rejection. Elvis felt, according to Priscilla's testimony in the book, that 'he just couldn't have sex with a woman who'd had a child'. People laughed at him because he was very fussy, he'd always carry his own utensils when he went out to eat because he didn't want germs.' I'd read that he was unhappy with his body, even though his fans worshipped it as a phallic totem. <P> Cpl. Elvis Presley, 24, asked guitarist Charlie Hodge on a 1959 evening in Bad Nauheim, Germany. It's almost like everything I've looked for in a woman in my life.. With 17 chart-topping songs and four hit movies to his credit, Presley had teenage girls around the globe clamoring to touch his blue-suede shoes. But what turned him into a teddy bear was 14-year-old Air Force brat Priscilla Beaulieu <P> Elvis Presley died 35 years ago today, on August 16, 1977. To honor The King, here are 10 things you probably don’t know about him but definitely should. 1. In 1977, the year that Elvis died, there were about 170 working Elvis Presley impersonators. Today, there are around 250,000. 2. Elvis did LSD in 1965 with The Beatles. Hoping to discover this “Inner Light,” Presley enlisted Schilling, the entertainer’s girlfriend (and later wife) Priscilla Beaulieu, and hairdresser Larry Geller to join him on an LSD “trip.” Schilling remembers the surrealism of the night. <P> 1967 and in two years we did our own thing and we got a arrangement with jimmy dean we sang a lot with him before the invitation to work with elvis came along in 1969. that's when we went with elvis for three years, we opened in las vegas with him july 31 1969 at the international hotel. <P> Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi as a twinless twin, and when he was 13 years old, he and his family relocated to Memphis, Tennessee. His music career began there in 1954, when he recorded a song with producer Sam Phillips at Sun Records. <P> The passion—and madness—would continue for 18 years, until Elvis's death in 1977. From the beginning, though, the relationship had a pathological twist. With a firm belief that marriage was forever, Elvis did not want Priscilla to be one of his party dolls. It's almost like everything I've looked for in a woman in my life.. With 17 chart-topping songs and four hit movies to his credit, Presley had teenage girls around the globe clamoring to touch his blue-suede shoes. <P> That left Elvis and his buddies free to be bad boys with the showgirls in between! Not that I was any angel. Eventually I took on someone.' The euphemism is characteristic. Priscilla's maiden name is Beaulieu (pronounced Bewlew) and she is as much of a genteel Southern belle as Tennessee Williams's Blanche du Bois. People laughed at him because he was very fussy, he'd always carry his own utensils when he went out to eat because he didn't want germs.' I'd read that he was unhappy with his body, even though his fans worshipped it as a phallic totem. <P> The material benefits that Dr. Nichopoulos enjoyed from his association with Elvis did not stop at gifts and fees. In 1975 he had persuaded Elvis to loan him $200,000 to build a house in a newly developing and affluent neighborhood well east of town. Dr. Nichopoulos was making his rounds at Doctors Hospital far out on the east side of Memphis when the call came that Elvis was in trouble. Dropping everything, he rushed to Graceland in the green Mercedes-Benz Elvis had given him. He was taken by surprise by the call. <P> When the papers were full of tales of Elvis and his Viva Las Vegas costar Ann-Margret, however, Elvis waved it off, but he insisted that Priscilla stay in Memphis and not with him in L.A. because of the bad publicity. Elvis finally handed over a 3½-carat diamond ring in December 1966. It's almost like everything I've looked for in a woman in my life.. With 17 chart-topping songs and four hit movies to his credit, Presley had teenage girls around the globe clamoring to touch his blue-suede shoes.

cost to move a house
|
<P> The fee for moving an average 1,000-square-foot, 3-bedroom apartment (goods weighing 5,500 pounds) from Chicago to Miami would be approximately $4,400 to $4,900. The same 1,400-mile move for a 2,800-square-foot, 4-bedroom household (20,500 pounds) would likely cost $14,600 to $15,600. Same distance, different loads. <P> Based on my experience in the field, packing costs can be similar to the moving cost itself. A 4 bedroom house can take more than 12h to move from one town to another. In this case your average moving costs will be around $1800 to $2500 without including any packing. For example if you’re moving from Chicago to Boston, MA and you live in a 4 bedroom house, your average moving cost with a full service moving company can go over $10000. But if you are moving locally within 100 miles from your old place, this cost will be based on hourly rate and will vary from company to company. <P> Most house moving companies want to physically inspect a house and the desired placement location before estimating the cost for them to move it. The cost for moving any size house can range between $12 and $16 per square foot, so obviously a smaller house with not a long distance to travel will be cheaper to move. The roads traveled during the move can add to the cost of the move. The house will need to be inspected as well. Preparing the House for the Move. There are several things that need to be done when getting a house ready to be moved. Before any steps can be taken, the mortgage company or banking holding the mortgage for the house must approve <P> A total cost of between $8,000 and $40,000 just to actually move the house from the original site to the new site can be considered to be on the cheaper end of the spectrum with costs for moving bigger houses reaching up to hundreds of thousands. The house will need to be inspected as well. Preparing the House for the Move. There are several things that need to be done when getting a house ready to be moved. Before any steps can be taken, the mortgage company or banking holding the mortgage for the house must approve of the move. <P> Average Cost. Based on 2010 data, the average cost of moving a new home was $20,000 to $40,000. The size of the house, the distance to the new location and the amount of work required to move the building all play a role in the total cost. Purestock/Purestock/Getty Images. When new developments or roads encroach on your home and you have to move, you can take your house with you. The cost of moving the house is often consistent with the cost of building a new home and, in some cases, may be substantially lower. (Goodluz/iStock/Getty Images). <P> The cost of moving a house starts at about $12 to $16 per square foot but can quickly rise if the home is heavier, bigger or has farther to go [sources: McLinden, Burstein ]. One house builder estimates that moving a large home more than just a few miles can run about $150,000 to $200,000 [source: Fetters ]. In addition to the costs of the actual moving, these expenses should also be considered: 1 Cost of the new home, if you're not moving one that you already own <P> The cost of moving the house will depend mainly on the time it takes, which depends in turn on the route to be travelled, the size of the house and the degree of difficulty. It can range from a few thousand dollars to move a single-piece house, with the price increasing for the number of pieces, location and difficulty. <P> 1 Your cost will vary depending on the distance of your move, but a three-bedroom house move usually takes between six to eight hours, putting your move at about $900 to $1300 for labor alone. 2 You may also be charged extra fees for special services and supplies. 1 Any move less than 100 miles is considered a local move. 2 Local movers charge by the hour, with an average rate of about $100 per hour for two movers and a truck. 3 Depending on the amount of goods you need moved, you may need three to four movers, which will increase your hourly rate to about $150 to $170 an hour.

The largest temperate rainforests are on the Pacific coast in North America, stretching from Alaska to Oregon. Other temperate rainforests are found along the coast of Chile, the United Kingdom, Norway, Japan, New Zealand, and S. Australia. Tropical rainforests can be found around the world: In Central and South America; in Western Africa, eastern Madagascar, and the Zaire basin; and in Indo-Malaysia along the west coast of India, Assam, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Queensland, <P> Cave paintings (also known in archaeology as parietal art ) are paintings found on cave walls and ceilings, and especially those of prehistoric origin, which date back to some 40,000 years ago in both Asia and Europe. The exact purpose of the Paleolithic cave paintings is not known.

barbed wire is used for
|
<P> Barbed tape or razor wire is a mesh of metal strips with sharp edges whose purpose is to prevent passage by humans. The term razor wire, through long usage, has generally been used to describe barbed tape products. While razor wire is much sharper than the standard barbed wire, it is named after its appearance, but is not actually razor sharp. However, the points are very sharp and made to rip and grab onto clothing and flesh. <P> The first patent in the United States for barbed wire was issued in 1867 to Lucien B. Smith of Kent, Ohio, who is regarded as the inventor. Joseph F. Glidden of DeKalb, Illinois, received a patent for the modern invention in 1874 after he made his own modifications to previous versions. The Big Four in barbed wire were Joseph Glidden, Jacob Haish, Charles Francis Washburn, and Isaac L. Ellwood. Glidden, a farmer in 1873 and the first of the Big Four, is often credited for designing a successful sturdy barbed wire product, but he let others popularize it for him. <P> It was also used in the wars as weapons. Barbed Wire is a kind of modern security fencing materials fabricated with high-tensile wire. Barbed Wire can be installed to achieve the result of frightening and stopping. to the aggressive perimeter intruders, with piecing and cutting razor blades mounted at the top of the wall, <P> Applications: Razor wire fencing is widely used in government agencies, prisons, and military areas, etc. Especially in prisons, the unique structure of sharp blades. It often can be used with barbed wire together installed on the top of chain link fence and palisade fence for high security. Galvanized razor wire coil fence with barbed wire fence through it, installed on palisade fence. Razor barbed wire-chain link fence used as sports fence. If you need to consult the price, please contact the business department by e-mail: When you contact us, please provide your detail requirements. <P> The Development of Barbed Wire Prior to 1863, several individuals created forms of fencing that could be considered as barbed wire. None of these creations ever reached the mass market. In 1863 by Michael Kelly developed a type of fence with points affixed to twisted strands of wire. <P> Containment. One of the main reasons for having a barbed wire fence is containment. Fences can be used in this way in both a human and non-human capacity. Prisons commonly run barbed wire fencing known as razor wire along prison walls. If prisoners try to escape, they run the risk of injury because of the sharp points on the wiring. Barbed wire is also used to contain animals on farms. <P> Barbed wire, also known as barb wire, less often bob wire or, in the southeastern United States, bobbed wire, is a type of steel fencing wire constructed with sharp edges or points arranged at intervals along the strand(s). The Osage orange later became a supplier of the wood used in making barb wire fence posts. ) When wire fences became widely available in the United States in the late 19th century, they made it affordable to fence much larger areas than before. They made intensive animal husbandry practical on a much larger scale. <P> Razor wire fence used with barbed wire together for high security fencing. Razor barbed wire fence is mainly used in the key project, which and razor wire concertina are the majority of our products.

Roll of modern agricultural barbed wire. Barbed wire, also known as barb wire less often, bob wire (or, in the southeastern United States, bobbed wire), is a type of steel fencing wire constructed with sharp edges or points arranged at intervals along the strand(s). The Big Four in barbed wire were Joseph Glidden, Jacob Haish, Charles Francis Washburn, and Isaac L. Ellwood. Glidden, a farmer in 1873 and the first of the Big Four, is often credited for designing a successful sturdy barbed wire product, but he let others popularize it for him. <P> A barbed wire fence commonly has a number of uses in agriculture but it can also be used for other reasons. Barbed wire is formed simply by twisting hard pieces of wire together to form points at various places. Fences can be used in this way in both a human and non-human capacity. Prisons commonly run barbed wire fencing known as razor wire along prison walls. If prisoners try to escape, they run the risk of injury because of the sharp points on the wiring.

description of the leaning tower of pisa
|
<P> The Early Years. The construction of the Tower of Pisa began on August 9, 1173. Originally designed to be a bell tower, the tower actually stood upright for over 5 years, but just after the completion of the third floor (1178) it began to lean. The citizens of Italy were shocked as it began to lean ever so slightly. The Leaning Tower is the third oldest building on Pisa's Piazza del Duomo (cathedral square), the Cathedral and Baptistry were first. Utilizing many columns and archs, this tower represents an advanced understanding of weight and load characteristics, showing the Italian architectures' knowledge <P> Location. The tower is part of Pisa's Piazza del Duomo (Cathedral Square), a plaza dominated by Pisa's Duomo (cathedral), its Baptistery and Campo Santo (walled cemetery), all built in the medieval Romanesque style. Visiting the Tower. Tourists may go inside the Leaning Tower of Pisa under strict regulations. Timed tickets let in only 40 people at a time for a 30-minute guided tour, which involves climbing the nearly 300 steps to the summit for views of the entire city. <P> Although Pisa is known worldwide for its leaning tower (the bell tower of the city's cathedral), the city of over 89,940 residents (around 200,000 with the metropolitan area) contains more than 20 other historic churches, several medieval palaces and various bridges across the River Arno. <P> The tower is the cathedral's campanile, a free-standing bell tower. Pisa sits near the Mediterranean coast in Tuscany, about 50 miles east of Florence. Visiting the Tower. Tourists may go inside the Leaning Tower of Pisa under strict regulations. Timed tickets let in only 40 people at a time for a 30-minute guided tour, which involves climbing the nearly 300 steps to the summit for views of the entire city. <P> The Leaning Tower of Pisa is a freestanding bell tower located in the city of Pisa in Italy. Like its name suggest, it actually does lean to one side. The tower started to lean during construction because the foundation was built on soft ground that had difficulty supporting the weight. The tower weighs about 14,500 tons. That's a lot of weight for a building to have to support when it has been leaning since it was built. There are approximately 294 steps on the north side and 296 steps on the south side of the tower. The Leaning Tower of Pisa took 344 years to build, beginning in August 1173. It began to lean in 1178 once construction on the second floor had begun. The lean was due to one side sinking into the soft ground <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The Leaning Tower of Pisa (Italian: Torre pendente di Pisa) or simply the Tower of Pisa (Torre di Pisa) is the campanile, or freestanding bell tower, of the cathedral of the Italian city of Pisa, known worldwide for its unintended tilt. The height of the tower is 55.86 metres (183.27 feet) from the ground on the low side and 56.67 metres (185.93 feet) on the high side. The width of the walls at the base is 2.44 m (8 ft 0.06 in). Its weight is estimated at 14,500 metric tons (16,000 short tons)

cells of the immune system usually ignore antigens found in the body this is called
|
<P> The ability of the immune system to remember specific antigens through the production of memory cells, which are produced after an initial exposure and are saved in case of a second exposure to an antigen. <P> Almost all cells in the body present antigens-and they present the antigens in a special protein complex called the Major Histocompatability Complex (MHC). This may sound complicated but MHC is simply a group of proteins that captures proteins within the cell and brings them to the cell membrane. This genetic material is expressed into proteins that become part of the surface of the cell, its membrane. The proteins are called antigens in the context of the immune system. All livings things are made of cells, from one cell to millions of cells – including us and the organisms we refer to as pathogens. <P> Another important type of T cell is called the T killer/suppressor subset or CD8+ T cell. These cells are important in directly killing certain tumor cells, viral-infected cells and sometimes parasites. The CD8+ T cells are also important in down-regulation of immune responses. The immune system is composed of many interdependent cell types that collectively protect the body from bacterial, parasitic, fungal, viral infections and from the growth of tumor cells. Many of these cell types have specialized functions. <P> The receptors match only one specific antigen. White blood cells called lymphocytes originate in the bone marrow but migrate to parts of the lymphatic system such as the lymph nodes, spleen, and thymus. There are two main types of lymphatic cells, T cells and B cells. T cells can also produce memory cells with an even longer life span than B memory cells. The second time an intruder tries to invade the body, B and T memory cells help the immune system to activate much faster. The invaders are wiped out before the infected human feels any symptoms. <P> These cells are usually found in the structural compartment of the lymphoid organs such as the thymus, lymph nodes and spleen. However, they are also found in the bloodstream and other tissues of the body. It is believed that they capture antigen or bring it to the lymphoid organs where an immune response is initiated. The immune system is composed of many interdependent cell types that collectively protect the body from bacterial, parasitic, fungal, viral infections and from the growth of tumor cells. Many of these cell types have specialized functions. <P> All cells (human, bacterial and everything in between) hold some form of genetic material. This genetic material is expressed into proteins that become part of the surface of the cell, its membrane. The proteins are called antigens in the context of the immune system. All livings things are made of cells, from one cell to millions of cells – including us and the organisms we refer to as pathogens. <P> When an antibody attaches to an antigen, it helps the body destroy or inactivate the antigen. antigen —a substance or molecule that is recognized by the immune system. The antigen can be from foreign material such as bacteria or viruses. antiserum —a serum rich in antibodies against a particular microbe. B cells, T cells, and NK T cells are lymphocytes. lymphoid organ —an organ of the immune system where lymphocytes develop and congregate. These organs include the bone marrow, thymus, lymph nodes, spleen, and various other clusters of lymphoid tissue. Blood vessels and lymphatic vessels are also lymphoid organs. <P> Once activated, helper T cells start to divide and to produce proteins that activate B and T cells as well as other immune cells. The killer T cell is specialized in attacking cells of the body infected by viruses and sometimes also by bacteria. It can also attack cancer cells. The killer T cell has receptors that are used to search each cell that it meets. T cells can also produce memory cells with an even longer life span than B memory cells. The second time an intruder tries to invade the body, B and T memory cells help the immune system to activate much faster. The invaders are wiped out before the infected human feels any symptoms. <P> Macrophages -- Macrophages are important in the regulation of immune responses. They are often referred to as scavengers or antigen-presenting cells (APC) because they pick up and ingest foreign materials and present these antigens to other cells of the immune system such as T cells and B cells. The immune system is composed of many interdependent cell types that collectively protect the body from bacterial, parasitic, fungal, viral infections and from the growth of tumor cells. Many of these cell types have specialized functions.

what is artificial skin grafts
|
<P> Artificial skin is a product which can be used for temporary or permanent replacement of damaged skin. Classically, doctors use synthetic skin on burn victims. <P> Artificial skin. Artificial skin is a synthetic (laboratory produced) substitute for human skin that can dramatically save the lives of severely burned patients. Skin, composed of two layers called epidermis (the outer layer) and dermis (the inner layer), is the largest human organ. New forms of artificial skin have been tested for use on patients with skin disorders, chronic wounds, and certain forms of cancer. Synthetic skin is also being used as a human tissue substitute for laboratory animals in product research. <P> The term artificial skin is used to describe any material used to replace (permanently or temporarily) or to mimic the dermal and epidermal layers of the skin. The primary current application of artificial skin is for the treatment of skin loss or damage on burn patients. Alternatively however, artificial skin is now being used in some places to treat patients with skin diseases, such as diabetic foot ulcers, and severe scarring [1]. Skin grafts are required for patients with skin damage that is too significant for self-repair. As stated before, one of the primary requirements for artificial skin is for the treatment of severe burn victims. There are three levels of burns; 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree burns. <P> A German company has successfully grown bi-layer skin samples (both epidermis and dermis) in a lab and California researchers have successfully grown blood vessels from a skin sample [sources: Maugh and ScienceDaily ]. Scientists hope to produce a fully-functional, lab-produced artificial skin graft in the near future. For lots more information on amazing medical procedures and the science of skin, take a look at the links on the next page. Apparently, this texture is enough to trick skin cells in the body called fibroblasts to start generating human collagen on contact. As the body produces more and more collagen, the connective tissue begins to work its way up the artificial scaffolding, slowly building a new dermis. <P> Artificial skin refers to a collagen scaffold that induces regeneration of skin in mammals. The term was used in the late 1970s and early 1980s to describe a new treatment for massive burns. It was later discovered that treatment of deep skin wounds in adult animals and humans with this scaffold induces regeneration of the dermis. <P> Skin Replacement-Grafting and Synthetic Skin. Skin Replacement is a procedure for restoring SKIN to areas of the body where there has been extensive damage and loss of skin. BURNS, major trauma, surgery, varicose ulcers, and decubitus ulcers are among the conditions that require skin replacement. The main risk of skin replacement is graft failure, which can occur regardless of the graft source. Numerous factors contribute to graft success or failure. The graft may fail to develop an adequate blood supply or the match between the donor graft and the recipient site may be not quite right.

<P> noun. The battlement atop a castle tower. The battlement atop a castle tower. The definition of a battlement is the design at the top of old castle walls that looks like upside down teeth and is used to allow space for archers or sharpshooters to fire at intruders. An example of a battlement is the stone architecture seen atop a medieval watchtower. A notched parapet built on top of a wall, with alternating merlons and crenels for decoration or defense. Also called embattlement. Middle English batelment, alteration (influenced by batel, battle) of Old French batillement, tower, turret, from bastille; see bastille. <P> Definition of BATTLEMENT for Kids. : a low wall (as at the top of a castle) with openings to shoot through. Full Definition of BATTLEMENT. : a parapet with open spaces that surmounts a wall and is used for defense or decoration. — bat·tle·ment·ed \-ˌmen-təd\ adjective. See battlement defined for English-language learners <P> A battlement in defensive architecture, such as that of city walls or castles, comprises a parapet (i.e. a defensive low wall between chest-height and head-height), in which rectangular gaps or indentations occur at intervals to allow for the discharge of arrows or other missiles from within the defences. In medieval England a licence to crenellate granted the holder permission to fortify their property. Such licences were granted by the king, and by the rulers of the counties palatine within their jurisdictions, i.e. by the Bishops of Durham and the Earls of Chester and after 1351 by the Dukes of Lancaster. <P> Hydrogen Induced Cracks (HIC). Hydrogen embrittlement is the process by which metals such as steel become brittle and fracture due to the introduction and subsequent diffusion of hydrogen into the metal. This is often a result of accidental introduction of hydrogen during forming and finishing operations. This de-embrittlement process, known as baking, is used to overcome the weaknesses of methods such as electroplating which introduce hydrogen to the metal, but is not always entirely effective. <P> battlement, embattlement. battlement. 1. A fortified parapet with alternate solid parts and openings, termed respectively “merlons” and “embrasures” or “crenels” (hence crenelation). Generally for defense, but employed also as a decorative motif. 2. A roof or platform serving as battle post. 3. <P> Thus a defensive building might be designed and built with battlements, or a manor house might be fortified by adding battlements, where no parapet previously existed, or cutting crenellations into its existing parapet wall. The solid widths between the crenels are called merlons (also cops or kneelers). A wall with battlements is said to be crenelated or embattled. Battlements on walls have protected walkways (chemin de ronde) behind them. On tower or building tops, the (often flat) roof is used as the protected fighting platform. In medieval England a licence to crenellate granted the holder permission to fortify their property. Such licences were granted by the king, and by the rulers of the counties palatine within their jurisdictions, i.e. by the Bishops of Durham and the Earls of Chester and after 1351 by the Dukes of Lancaster. <P> battlement. noun rampart, wall, defence, fence, fort, barricade, stronghold, barbican, bastion, embankment, parapet, fortification, bulwark, earthwork, breastwork, bartizan, crenellation Guns could also be seen behind the battlements of the fort itself. 1 Facebook. All day long he was running towers up, taking towers down, adding a wing here, putting on a battlement there, looking to the walls, strengthening the defences, giving ornamental touches to the interior, making in all respects a superb castle of it.

what is graduated tax
|
<P> A progressive tax takes a larger percentage of income from high-income groups than from low-income groups and is based on the concept of ability to pay. A progressive tax system might, for example, tax low-income taxpayers at 10 percent, middle-income taxpayers at 15 percent and high-income taxpayers at 30 percent. <P> The proposed compromise between a flat tax and a progressive tax. A graduated flat tax is characterized by having minimal tax brackets and low tax rates. An example of a graduated flat tax was the modified flat tax system that was part of the Tax Reform Act of 1986. <P> progressive tax. A tax with a rate that increases as the amount to be taxed increases. For example, a taxing authority might levy a tax of 10% on the first $10,000 of income and increase the rate by 5% per each $10,000 increment up to a maximum of 50% on all income over $80,000. <P> In a progressive, or graduated, income tax system, taxpayers with higher incomes are taxed at higher rates that those with lower incomes. Those in favor of this approach say that the greatest tax burden falls on those who can afford to carry it. <P> Income taxes are levied by governments on the income of citizens to raise money for government services and programs. Taxes can be regressive or graduated. Regressive taxes tax a smaller percentage of income from wealthier individuals while graduated taxes, also known as progressive taxes, increase as income increases. <P> A tax with a rate that increases as the amount to be taxed increases. For example, a taxing authority might levy a tax of 10% on the first $10,000 of income and increase the rate by 5% per each $10,000 increment up to a maximum of 50% on all income over $80,000. <P> In a progressive, or graduated, income tax system, taxpayers with higher incomes are taxed at higher rates that those with lower incomes. Those in favor of this approach say that the greatest tax burden falls on those who can afford to carry it. <P> A graduated income tax is one that imposes a higher tax rate the higher your income. For example, the first $10,000 that you earn might be taxed at a rate of 5 percent, the next $15,000 at 15 percent and any income above $25,000 would be taxed at 30 percent. The tax rates only apply to the income in that category. For example, a person who makes $11,000 would not pay 15 percent on all of their income. Instead, they would pay 5 percent on the first $10,000 and 15 percent on the remaining $1,000 for a total tax bill of $650. <P> Noun. 1. graduated tax-any tax in which the rate increases as the amount subject to taxation increases. progressive tax. revenue enhancement, tax, taxation-charge against a citizen's person or property or activity for the support of government.

why are there different kinds of volcanoes
|
<P> There are several different types of volcanoes: steep stratovolcanoes, wide shield volcanoes, and mounded lava domes. The shape of a volcano actually depends on the types of lava that it’s made up of. And so, there are several different types of lava. <P> Volcanoes are grouped into four types: cinder cones, composite volcanoes, shield volcanoes and lava volcanoes. They are: Cinder Cones: They are circular or oval cones made up … of small fragments of lava from a single vent. They have been blown into the air, cooled, and fallen around the vent. <P> There are four different types of volcanoes. A volcano is categorized both by formation and appearance. Different types of volcanoes also indicate the types of expected eruptions. The different types of volcanoes are: composite (or stratovolcanoes), shield, cinder cones and spatter cones. Throughout the world, one can see pictures of the four types of volcanoes, each type indicative of the active underground world we often view as static. <P> There are three main types of volcano-composite or strato, shield and dome. Composite Volcanoes. Composite volcanoes, sometimes known as strato volcanoes, are steep sided cones formed from layers of ash and [lava] flows. The eruptions from these volcanoes may be a pyroclastic flow rather than a flow of lava. A pyroclastic flow is a superheated mixture of hot steam, ash, rock and dust.

According to Chandramana, Ugadi is celebrated on the bright fortnight ('Shukla Paksha') of the first month ('Chaitra Masa') in the first season of the year i.e. Spring ('Vasanta-Ritu'). As all these important elements are present, this day has special significance marking the commencement of a New Year. <P> Ugadi literally means beginning of an era (Perl). The name comes from two Sanskrit words yuga-which means era, and aadi-which means beginning, so Ugadi is the South Indian Hindu New Year (Perl). It is believed by many Hindus, that Brahma, the Hindu god of creation, created the universe on this day (Perl). The day of Ugadi is the first time there is a new moon since the spring equinox (Perl). At the time of Ugadi, plants are just starting to grow and everything is beautiful. It puts a festive mood in the air. Ugadi is also the start of the hot season, which coincides with summer holidays for students (Perl). <P> The Saka calendar begins with the month of Chaitra (March–April) and Ugadi marks the first day of the new year. Chaitra is the first month in Panchanga which is the Indian calendar. Thus, the year 2000 CE corresponds to the year 1922 of the Salivahana Era. In the terminology used by this lunar calendar (also each year is identified as per Indian Calendar) , Yugadi falls on Chaitra Shudhdha Paadyami or the first day of the bright half of the Indian month of Chaitra. <P> The name Yugadi or Ugadi is derived from the Sanskrit words yuga (age) and ādi (beginning): the beginning of a new age. It falls on a different day every year because the Hindu calendar is a lunisolar calendar. Thus, the year 2000 CE corresponds to the year 1922 of the Salivahana Era. In the terminology used by this lunar calendar (also each year is identified as per Indian Calendar) , Yugadi falls on Chaitra Shudhdha Paadyami or the first day of the bright half of the Indian month of Chaitra. <P> Where: Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka. The festival of Ugadi heralds the start of a New Year in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. In both states the festival is locally referred to as Telugu Panchang and Kannada Panchang, respectively. Ugadi comes from two words, 'Yuga' meaning 'era', and 'aadi' means 'the beginning’. People of Maharashtra also observe the same day as ‘ Gudi Padwa ’. Ugadi is believed to be the day when Brahma-the Creator, in the Hindu Trinity-formed the universe.

Not surprisingly, it is also home to the greatest number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the world. High art and monuments are to be found everywhere around the country. <P> Apulia was a region that included the resemblance to a heel of a boot of Italy, now known as the Salentina (Salentine) peninsula, in southeast Italy. Apulia is now called Puglia. It had also been called Iapygia, after the Iapyges. Italy. Geographically, Italy, or Italia, referred to the Italian peninsula, which included the Apennines (Apennine Ranges) that extend from south of the river Po, all the way south to the toe (Calabrian Apennine). Southern Italy looked very much like high-heel boot. <P> ), officially the Italian Republic (Italian: Repubblica Italiana), is a unitary parliamentary republic in Europe. Italy covers an area of 301,338 km 2 (116,347 sq mi) and has a largely temperate climate; due to its shape, it is often referred to in Italy as lo Stivale (the Boot). With 61 million inhabitants, it is the 4th most populous EU member state. Located in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, Italy shares open land borders with France, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, San Marino and Vatican City. <P> The boot-shape peninsula of Italy, extending into the central Mediterranean Sea is a rugged, mountainous country of simply stunning scenery that also includes the popular island destinations of Sardinia and Elba to the west, and Capri, Ischia and Sicily off the southern coast. Italy was certainly influenced by many powerful cultures and political forces over time, including the Byzantines, Etruscans and Greeks, but it was the world-changing impact of both the Roman civilization and the Italian Renaissance that contributed most-significantly to its status in the modern world. <P> Pinterest 10.

what bases make up dna
|
<P> There are two groups of bases: Pyrimidines: Cytosine and Thymine each have a single six-member ring. Purines: Guanine and Adenine each have a double ring made up of a five-atom ring attached by one side to a six-atom ring. The order of nucleotides along DNA polymers encode the genetic information carried by DNA. <P> Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). <P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: There are four different bases that make up DNA. They are Adenine(A), Thymine(T), Cytosine(C), and Guanine(G). If you are only taking Biology, then you shouldn't need to know what each does. But I will tell you one another thing that maybe helpful in the future for you. When you have to match up the base sequence with their pair, these are the bases that match-up. <P> The four different nitrogenous bases; Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C) are the parts that are different on different nucleotides. These bases differ in … their chemical structure: The pyrimidines, Cytosine and Thymine have one ring (with different side chains). DNA (Deoxy ribo-nucleic acid) is made up of structures known as nucleotides, there are four nucleotides from which all the DNA coding has been written, which are as follow : adenine (a purine). cytosine (a pyrimidine). gua <P> DNA is a long molecule made up of twisted strands of the bases A, T, C and G. Genes are sections of the DNA and each gene has the code for creating a specific protein. The sequence of bases in the gene controls which amino acids are created and joined to make a specific new protein or enzyme molecule. <P> DNA is made up of 2 types of nitrogen bases, purines and pyrimidines. Purines r of 2 types...Adenine and Guanine. Pyrimidines r of 2 types...Thaimine and Cytosine.DNA is double stranded and the strands r connected to each other by weak hydrogen bonds. Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Thyamine are the four bases which make up (different strands of) DNA. These bases undergo a pairing between them i.e. A & T G & C. by da way there are 3 types of DNAs. <P> Genes are made up of DNA. Each chromosome contains many genes. A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes, which are made up of DNA, act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. In humans, genes vary in size from a few hundred DNA bases to more than 2 million bases. <P> A nucleotide is made up of one sugar molecule, one phosphate molecule and one of the four bases (adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine).

what is gluten allergy
|
<P> A person with gluten sensitivity (also known as gluten intolerance) may have symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, or diarrhea, but, because the immune or autoimmune symptoms are not involved, it is not considered as serious a condition as celiac disease or gluten allergy. Gliadin is also one of the major allergens associated with wheat allergies and a trigger for celiac disease, a serious autoimmune disorder of the small intestine. Unlike a gluten allergy, in which small amounts of gluten may be tolerated, a patient with celiac disease cannot tolerate any gluten at all. <P> 1 Ask your doctor about other grains. 2 When you have a wheat allergy, you may or may not be allergic to some other grains, too. 3 Gluten, one of the wheat proteins that can cause a reaction, is also in barley, rye, and oats. 4 Ask your doctor if they are safe to eat. 5 Always check labels. 1 Gluten, one of the wheat proteins that can cause a reaction, is also in barley, rye, and oats. 2 Ask your doctor if they are safe to eat. 3 Always check labels. 4 Allergic reactions to wheat can range from stomach upset to asthma-like symptoms to anaphylaxis, which is an emergency. <P> Coeliac disease is a lifelong intolerance to gliaden, part of the gluten proteins that are a large part of the grain of wheat, rye and barley. It causes damage to the small intestine and many other symptoms and tends to run in families. Strict adherence to a gluten-free diet brings complete resolution of symptoms. <P> Gluten Allergy Overview. A gluten allergy is the body's inability to digest or break down the gluten protein found in wheat and certain other grains. Gluten intolerance (also known as a gluten sensitivity) can range from a mild sensitivity to gluten to full-blown celiac disease <P> Gluten-related disorders is the umbrella term for all diseases triggered by gluten. Gluten-related disorders/gliadin-related disorders include celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS). Formerly, also gluten intolerance has been used as umbrella term, and the expression gluten sensitivity has been used either as umbrella term or for NCGS. <P> 4 Wheat Allergy Tips. 1 Ask your doctor about other grains. 2 When you have a wheat allergy, you may or may not be allergic to some other grains, too. 3 Gluten, one of the wheat proteins that can cause a reaction, is also in barley, rye, and oats. 4 Ask your doctor if they are safe to eat. 5 Always check labels. 1 Gluten, one of the wheat proteins that can cause a reaction, is also in barley, rye, and oats. 2 Ask your doctor if they are safe to eat. 3 Always check labels. 4 Allergic reactions to wheat can range from stomach upset to asthma-like symptoms to anaphylaxis, which is an emergency. <P> A gluten allergy—not to be confused with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease—is caused by gliadin, a glycoprotein that, along with glutenin (another protein), helps to form the gluten protein. Gluten is found in wheat and other related grains such as barley, oats, and rye. Gliadin is also one of the major allergens associated with wheat allergies and a trigger for celiac disease, a serious autoimmune disorder of the small intestine. Unlike a gluten allergy, in which small amounts of gluten may be tolerated, a patient with celiac disease cannot tolerate any gluten at all. <P> Symptoms of a gluten allergy are often similar to those in celiac disease and may include abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, bloating, heartburn, bloating, anxiety and anemia. Gliadin is also one of the major allergens associated with wheat allergies and a trigger for celiac disease, a serious autoimmune disorder of the small intestine. Unlike a gluten allergy, in which small amounts of gluten may be tolerated, a patient with celiac disease cannot tolerate any gluten at all. <P> Gluten sensitivity or intolerance is a condition that causes a person to react after ingesting gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye. Symptoms vary widely and can include gastrointestinal problems, joint pain, fatigue and depression.

The most compatible signs with Sagittarius are generally considered to be Aries, Leo, Libra and Aquarius. The least compatible signs with Sagittarius are generally considered to be Virgo and Pisces. Comparing sun signs can give a good general idea of <P> There are three main signs that work quite well with Sagittarius: Aries, Leo and Libra. Of course, there are signs that are mildly compatible as well such as Sagittarius, Cancer, Gemini and Taurus. Incompatible signs include Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Finding true love is a challenge. <P> The best compatible signs for Sagittarius are Aries and Leo. They also get along with fellow Sagittarius, Libra and Aquarius. When Leo and Sagittarius join together in a love … match, the result is often fireworks! Both Signs are extremely dynamic and enjoy life to the fullest. <P> Sagittarius (aka the Archer) is a Fire sign, which makes it compatible with all Fire signs (Aries, Leo and, of course, other Sagittarians). Sagittarius also enjoys good compatibility with Air signs (Aquarius, Gemini and Libra). <P> As a star sign ruled by the element of Fire, your safest bet, Sagittarius, is probably one of the other two Fire signs, i.e. ARIES or LEO. The favorable 120° – or 4 signs – spacing between Zodiac signs in the same element makes for an especially harmonious relationship and a level of compatibility well above the norm. <P> Traditionally Sagittarius compatibility is with all the other fire signs: Aries and Leo; it is pretty good also with the air signs: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius; it has a so-so compatibility with Taurus and Cancer; and it can have quite a problem with Virgo and Pisces. <P> Sagittarius Compatibility with the Other Signs Sagittarius is a questing, far-reaching, and sometimes arrogant sign; Sagittarius compatibility is something that needs some explaining.

what is a CIN
|
<P> CIN 1. If you have CIN 1 (low-grade) cells, it's unlikely that you'll develop cancer. The abnormal cells will often disappear without treatment to remove them. You'll usually be invited for a cervical screening test in 12 months to check that the abnormal cells have gone. <P> Cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN) is a term used to describe changes in the squamous cells of the cervix. CIN is not cancer, but treatment may be needed to prevent squamous cell cervical cancer developing. <P> Contrast Induced Nephropathy (CIN) is a form of kidney damage caused by the toxic effects of dyes (known as 'contrast media') used by cardiologists to x-ray the heart and blood vessels during commonly performed heart procedures such as angioplasty and stenting. <P> Most often, cervical dysplasia is caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). HPV is a common virus that is spread through sexual contact. There are many types of HPV. Some types lead to cervical dysplasia or cancer. Other types of HPV can cause genital warts. <P> listen. Severely abnormal cells are found on the surface of the cervix. CIN 3 is usually caused by certain types of human papillomavirus (HPV) and is found when a cervical biopsy is done. If not treated, these abnormal cells may become cancer and spread to nearby normal tissue. <P> Cervical dysplasia refers to abnormal changes in the cells on the surface of the cervix. The cervix is the lower part of the uterus (womb) that opens at the top of the vagina. The changes are not cancer. <P> CIN3 is not cancer of the cervix, but it is important to treat CIN3 as soon as possible. CIN3 may be referred to as severe dyskaryosis or severe dysplasia. Less commonly, it is called carcinoma-in-situ, though this term is rarely used these days. <P> CIN3 – indicates more severe changes (not cancer); affecting the full thickness of the surface layer of the cervix. Even with CIN2 or CIN3 grade changes, it is unlikely that a woman has cancer (NHS Cancer Screening leaflet, ‘Cervical Screening: what your abnormal result means’, 2012). <P> Cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN) is when there are changes in the surface (squamous) cells of the cervix. It’s not a cancer. But because CIN can increase the risk of cervical cancer developing, it is called a pre-cancerous condition.

how many acres does it take to feed a person
|
<P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. One acre of land can feed one person for a year. That acre of land can be reused to feed a person for the subsequent year. However, since most farmers plant somewhere around 30,000 seeds per acre, you can figure the bu … shels thus: 30,000 seeds divide by 2,000 seeds per pound equals about 15 pounds divided by 56 pounds of corn per bushel equals about 1/4 bushel per acre. <P> Maybe we can feed 2 people on an acre, but my point is that those two people have a responsibility to pay for what they receive from that acre plus a little more: in case of random disasters, etc. We should strive to be net useful to everything we touch and to our future selves, not net consumers. There is no gain in meat produced per acre by feeding grains to ruminants compared to feeding on pasture. Pasture is much more productive in terms of plant biomass yielded per year than corn since the plants are perennial and grow actively year-round in many areas. <P> To summarize, the average American consumes about 2000 lbs of food per year, which works out to about 5.5 lbs and 2700 calories per day–or nearly your entire body weight in food per month. Divide those daily 2700 calories by 5.5 lbs and you get 490 calories per pound of food, on average. There is no gain in meat produced per acre by feeding grains to ruminants compared to feeding on pasture. Pasture is much more productive in terms of plant biomass yielded per year than corn since the plants are perennial and grow actively year-round in many areas. <P> How many acres of forage does it take to feed 1 cow for a year? Average Fodder requirement per cow which gives 15 Kilogram of Milk/Day will be around 20-25 Kilograms. However, since most farmers plant somewhere around 30,000 seeds per acre, you can figure the bu … shels thus: 30,000 seeds divide by 2,000 seeds per pound equals about 15 pounds divided by 56 pounds of corn per bushel equals about 1/4 bushel per acre. <P> One Acre Feeds a Person. With the holiday season behind us many are feeling the effects of eating a bit too much and are working on a New Year’s resolution to shed some pounds. There is no gain in meat produced per acre by feeding grains to ruminants compared to feeding on pasture. Pasture is much more productive in terms of plant biomass yielded per year than corn since the plants are perennial and grow actively year-round in many areas. <P> 1. We're long past the myth that it takes two acres of land to feed a single person. Two acres is over 87,000 square feet. This model shows how we can now feed 24 people (or more) on a plot of land only just over 8,000 square feet – and that space includes living space and recreational space. On our average city plot there is 890 square feet of space per person. This, at the least, verifies that we could all have a yard and a home on a land mass the size of Texas without any sacrifice to personal space. 1050 square feet per person would actually be an upgrade from 890 square feet per person <P> Most people are not looking forward to a 10 minute lecture when they ask me a supposedly simple question. So while there are many variables and lots of imprecision when answering “How much land is needed to feed a person,” for today’s American diet, with today’s agricultural system, I’ll stick with about one acre. There is no gain in meat produced per acre by feeding grains to ruminants compared to feeding on pasture. Pasture is much more productive in terms of plant biomass yielded per year than corn since the plants are perennial and grow actively year-round in many areas. <P> Since there are so few actual hunter/gathers left alive on the planet we will turn to anthropological data. The quick and easy answer is that traditional peoples used on average, about 10 square miles per person. 10 square miles is 6,400 acres – that is for one person. There are numerous studies and authors that cite this number and one of the most accessible is Jared Diamond author of the popular title Collapse: How Societies Choose To Fail or Succeed. At 2 acres per animal, that is 6 acres – but that doesn’t include the land you need to grow hay for winter or housing. You know, I used to feel pretty good about having 23 acres – 4 open and 19 wooded. 50,000 sq ft under cultivation, 16,000 sq ft in orchard. <P> WA: Yes. LRK: But instead you ended up producing 40 tons of food a year from those 3 acres. WA: You could quantify it in a number of different ways. We grow enough food there to feed about 10,000 people in a very intense and integrated food system. We grow about 150 different crops in an unusual way. We started out as a for-profit for the first 2 years. I was working with kids in the neighborhood, teaching them about where their food came from.

what is elemental silver
|
<P> Silver has also been used to create coins, although today other metals are typically used in its place. Sterling silver, an alloy containing 92.5% silver, is used to make silverware, jewelry and other decorative items. High capacity batteries can be made with silver and zinc and silver and cadmium. Sliver nitrate (AgNO 3) is light sensitive and is used to make photographic films and papers. Silver iodide (AgI) is used to seed clouds to produce rain. <P> Silver is a chemical element with symbol Ag (Greek: άργυρος arguros, árguros: latin, argentum both from The-Indo european *root- h₂erǵ for grey or) shining and atomic number. 47 a, soft, white lustrous transition, metal it possesses the highest electrical, conductivity thermal conductivity and reflectivity of any. metal The metal is primarily produced as a byproduct of electrolytic copper refining, gold, nickel, and zinc refining, and by application of the Parkes process on lead metal obtained from lead ores that contain small amounts of silver. <P> The metal occurs naturally in its pure, free form (native silver), as an alloy with gold and other metals, and in minerals such as argentite and chlorargyrite. Most silver is produced as a byproduct of copper, gold, lead, and zinc refining. Silver has long been valued as a precious metal. The metal is primarily produced as a byproduct of electrolytic copper refining, gold, nickel, and zinc refining, and by application of the Parkes process on lead metal obtained from lead ores that contain small amounts of silver. <P> Here is the reflectance spectrum for silver. It reflects the entire visible spectrum, absorbing light only in the ultra-violet region. An ingot of elemental silver will have a silvery-white color. In fact silver is said to be the whitest of all metals. If you grind the silver up into smaller and smaller particles, the silver will appear progressively grayer or darker. <P> Elemental Silver and mixed antioxidants are the main ingredient in our skin care formulations. Silver in it's elemental form has been proven to destroy bacteria, viruses and fungi on contact and within seconds. SilverPure products are soothing, 100% natural skin emollients. We use the highest quality oils and waxes such as beeswax, lanolin, mineral oil, jojoba oil, cocoa butter and various mixed antioxidants. <P> Sterling silver contains 92.5% silver. The rest is copper or some other metal. It is used for jewellery and silver tableware, where appearance is important. Silver is used to make mirrors, as it is the best reflector of visible light known, although it does tarnish with time. Silver has antibacterial properties and can kill lower organisms quite effectively. Natural abundance. Silver occurs uncombined, and in ores such as argentite and chlorargyrite (horn silver). However, it is mostly extracted from lead-zinc, copper, gold and copper-nickel ores as a by-product of mining for these metals. <P> Silver often plays second fiddle to another precious metal, gold, but this element has special properties that deserve a good look. For example, of all the metals, pure silver is the best conductor of heat and electricity, according to the Jefferson National Linear Accelerator Laboratory. <P> Source: Silver is found in elemental form and also in various ores such as argentite (silver sulfide, Ag 2 S) and horn silver (silver chloride, AgCl). Commercially, the main sources of silver are copper, copper-nickel, gold, lead, and lead-zinc ores. Our name for the element is derived from the Anglo-Saxon for silver, ‘seolfor,’ which itself comes from ancient Germanic ‘silabar.’. Silver’s chemical symbol, Ag, is an abbreviation of the Latin word for silver, ‘argentum.’ The Latin word originates from argunas, a Sanskrit word meaning shining. <P> Silver is a precious metal that has had a number of different uses over the years, including jewelry, coins, silverware, electronics and photography. Find out more about the silver atom and its properties by checking out our interesting facts about silver. Silver is a chemical element. Its chemical symbol is Ag and atomic number is 47. Silver is a soft, shiny metal that is a good conductor of electricity. Silver is precious metal that has been used for many years to make fine pieces of jewelry, coins, utensils and various pieces of art.

dna replication in eukaryotes vs prokaryotes
|
<P> • In eukaryotes, multiple replication sites are present in a single DNA molecule whereas, in prokaryotes, a single replication site is present in the circular DNA molecule. • In prokaryotes, DNA replication involves three polymerase enzymes; namely, DNA polymerase I, DNA polymerase II, and DNA polymerase III. Prokaryotic DNA and eukaryotic DNA vary widely; so do their replication processes. Prokaryotic DNA Replication. Unlike in eukaryotes, there is a single circular DNA exists in prokaryotes. The replication in the prokaryotic chromosome begins at the origin of replication. <P> Eukaryotic DNA Replication. Unlike in prokaryotes, eukaryotes have a large amount DNA. Therefore, the replication of DNA in eukaryotes are quite complex and involve many biological processes. Since the DNA amount is large, there are few origins of replication points, which form the bubbles. Prokaryotic DNA and eukaryotic DNA vary widely; so do their replication processes. Prokaryotic DNA Replication. Unlike in eukaryotes, there is a single circular DNA exists in prokaryotes. The replication in the prokaryotic chromosome begins at the origin of replication. <P> The termination of DNA replication occurs at specific termination sites in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, a single termination site is present midway between the circular chromosome. The two replication forks meet at this site, thus, halting the replication process. The replication occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. In case of eukaryotes, the organisms that contain a membrane-bound nucleus, the DNA is sequestered inside the nucleus. Hence, the nucleus is the site for DNA replication in <P> by admin. Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic DNA. All the organisms are classified as either Prokaryotic or Eukaryotic. The Organisms that lack nucleus or membrane bounded organelles are called prokaryote while eukaryotes have ‘true’ nuclei that contain DNA and membrane bound organelles. <P> • Many replication bubbles present in eukaryotes, whereas no or few replication bubbles present in prokaryotes. • In prokaryotes, RNA acts as the primer whereas, in eukaryotes, either RNA or DNA acts as the primer. • DNA replication in eukaryotes takes place during the cell cycle, unlike in prokaryotes. Read more: Prokaryotic DNA and eukaryotic DNA vary widely; so do their replication processes. Prokaryotic DNA Replication. Unlike in eukaryotes, there is a single circular DNA exists in prokaryotes. The replication in the prokaryotic chromosome begins at the origin of replication. <P> Differences between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic DNA Replication. Differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA replication are largely related to contrasts in size and complexity of the DNA and cells of these organisms. The average eukaryotic cell has 25 times more DNA than a prokaryotic cell. In prokaryotic cells, there is only one point of origin, replication occurs in two opposing directions at the same time, and takes place in the cell cytoplasm. <P> The prokaryotic DNA is present as a DNA-protein complex called nucleoid. The replication occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. In case of eukaryotes, the organisms that contain a membrane-bound nucleus, the DNA is sequestered inside the nucleus. Hence, the nucleus is the site for DNA replication in eukaryotes. <P> While there are many similarities, the replication of prokaryotes and eukaryotes involve differences. These differences in DNA replication reflect the contrast between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The average eukaryotic cell has 25 times more DNA than a prokaryotic cell. In prokaryotic cells, there is only one point of origin, replication occurs in two opposing directions at the same time, and takes place in the cell cytoplasm. <P> Stage of Cell Division. In prokaryotes, DNA replication is the first step of cell division, which is primarily through binary fission or budding. In eukaryotes, cell division is a comparatively complex process, and DNA replication occurs during the synthesis (S) phase of the cell cycle. The replication occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. In case of eukaryotes, the organisms that contain a membrane-bound nucleus, the DNA is sequestered inside the nucleus. Hence, the nucleus is the site for DNA replication in eukaryotes.

<P> For the hyperkeratosis that shows up on the elbows and knees, it is better to stop leaning on them or use a pad to on the elbows and knees. Proper shoes can be worn on the feet to prevent thickening of the soles of the feet. Hyperkeratosis can also be treated based on the location on the parts of the body. The purpose of the treatment is to reduce the thickness of the skin and also eliminate it. Relevant creams or ointments that contain salicylic acid, glycolic acid can be applied on the affected area. Hyperkeratosis is more pronounced and noticed on the skin of women who have brown skins. Creams containing glycolic acid should be applied on the thickened skins of the palms, sole, elbows and the knees to soften the skin. <P> Hyperkeratosis means “thickening skin,” and can occur with a number of different foot conditions. Hyperkeratosis on its own is not necessarily painful or even worrisome, as long as it is not being caused by an underlying condition. For example, there may be thickened skin on your heels or the soles of your feet. <P> Hyperkeratosis is a painless brown patch and thick skin noticed on people’s arms, legs, knees, elbows and faces. It is caused by extreme collection of keratin in the epidermis surface of the skin. When the skin becomes thickened, it guards it against resistance and irritation.

Hyperkeratosis is a form of keratosis. Keratosis is a disorder of the skin caused by the overproduction of keratin. Hyperkeratosis is linked with qualitative abnormality of the keratin and causes thickening of the stratum corneum or the horny layer of the skin. It is caused by too much buildup of keratin in the outer layers of skin. The thickening of this skin defends it from rubbing, irritation as well as pressure. Most of the types of this condition are painless.

how many days after conception does implantation occur
|
<P> During my ovulation time, how many days am I really fertile? During your window of ovulation, an egg is only available to be fertilized for about 12-24 hours. But since sperm can live in the body for 3-5 days after sex, and the egg is available for one day, your most fertile time is considered to be about 5-7 days. <P> It is by this adhesion that the foetus receives oxygen and nutrients from the mother to be able to grow. In humans, implantation of a fertilized ovum is most likely to occur about 9 days after ovulation, ranging between 6 and 12 days. <P> If conception occurred, implantation (when the fertilized egg attaches to the uterine wall) typically happens seven to ten days after ovulation, but it can happen a few days earlier or later as well. Some possible signs of implantation or successful conception are: 1 light spotting that happens for just a brief period of time around seven to ten days past ovulation. 2 a second thermal shift that occurs <P> Definitely your ex. Takes at least 3-4 days after implantation to get a positive result on a HPT. So to be the new guy it would have had to be at least 10 days before you got a + and you only had 6. Little one wouldn’t have even implanted yet. <P> Implantation happens when the fertilized egg arrives in the uterus and attaches to the uterine lining. Implantation occurs on average 9 days after ovulation and fertilization, it can happen as early as 6 days after ovulation until 12 days after ovulation. The timing of implantation spotting is within a day or so after implantation, about 9-10 days after ovulation and fertilization. Implantation happens between 6 and 12 days after ovulation, so about 9-10 days after ovulation would be the right time for implantation bleeding and spotting. Implantation bleeding can be seen about a day or so after implantation, which happens about 9 days after ovulation/fertilization (range: 6-12 days). <P> Conception can make your hormones change so your body may be responding to that. Implantation usually happens 6-12 days after conception and you can possibly get a positive pregnancy test about 4 to 5 days after implantation occurs, if you are pregnant. Takes at least 3-4 days after implantation to get a positive result on a HPT. So to be the new guy it would have had to be at least 10 days before you got a + and you only had 6. Little one wouldn’t have even implanted yet. <P> Implantation typically occurs 6 to 10 days after ovulation, or day 20 to 24 of a menstrual cycle. However, it can happen a few days earlier or later. In an average 28-day cycle, ovulation occurs on day 14 with the first day of a woman's period being considered day 1 in a cycle. 1 Implantation Spotting or Bleeding-A very small amount of spotting or implantation bleeding may occur for a short period of time, around 7 to 10 days after ovulation has taken place. <P> Implantation bleeding does not occur with every woman. Usually only about 30% of women will experience implantation bleeding. You will usually see implantation bleeding 4 to 7 days before your period is due if you are one of the 30%. Takes at least 3-4 days after implantation to get a positive result on a HPT. So to be the new guy it would have had to be at least 10 days before you got a + and you only had 6. Little one wouldn’t have even implanted yet. <P> At this early stage of prenatal development, the embryo is called a blastocyst. Implantation of a fertilized ovum is most likely to occur about 9 days after ovulation, but can range between 6 to 12 days. Use this calculator to find the most likely date range for implantation based on your cycle: <P> Well if you had implantation bleeding, you usually will be able to test in about 4 or 5 days after that. If you have taken a pregnancy test already and it is negative, and then you take another one that is positive, your conception date would be about two weeks ago. Takes at least 3-4 days after implantation to get a positive result on a HPT. So to be the new guy it would have had to be at least 10 days before you got a + and you only had 6.

who coined the term hegemonic
|
<P> According to Nick Trujillo, author of “Hegemonic Masculinity on the Mound,” in which he analyzes the concept within the American sports culture, there are five particular dimensions. That the stereotypical male exercise physical force and control is first and foremost. <P> As a sociologic concept, the hegemonic nature of hegemonic masculinity derives from the theory of cultural hegemony, by Marxist theorist Antonio Gramsci, which analyzes the power relations among the social classes of a society. For example, Laurie argues that the hegemonic masculinity framework lends itself to a modified essentialism, wherein the achievement of masculine goals is frequently attributed to a way of thinking understood as inherent to the male psyche, and in relation to an innate disposition for homosocial bonding. <P> Also, it could be used for the geopolitical and the cultural predominance of one country over others; from which was derived hegemonism, as in the idea that the Great Powers meant to establish European hegemony over Asia and Africa. In Ancient Greece (8th century BCE – 6th century CE), hegemony denoted the politico–military dominance of a city-state over other city-states. The dominant state is known as the hegemon. In the 19th century, hegemony came to denote the Social or cultural predominance or ascendancy; predominance by one group within a society or milieu. Later, it could be used to mean a group or regime which exerts undue influence within a society. <P> Print Email Save. Heteronormative is a term that describes a culture which conforms to heterosexual standards as the norm. Heteronormativity is quite subtle and exists in different forms. The concept of heteronormativity tends to marginalize people who do not belong to the hegemonic types. These include homosexuals and others who refrain from conforming to standard norms about gender and sexuality. <P> Hegemonic masculinity is not totally dominant, however, as it only exists in relation to non-hegemonic, subordinated forms of masculinity. The most salient example of this approach in contemporary European and American society is the dominance of heterosexual men and the subordination of homosexual men. For example, Laurie argues that the hegemonic masculinity framework lends itself to a modified essentialism, wherein the achievement of masculine goals is frequently attributed to a way of thinking understood as inherent to the male psyche, and in relation to an innate disposition for homosocial bonding. <P> R.W. Connell first coined the term 'hegemonic masculinity' in her books (1985; 1997). Some have critiqued the place of this dominant masculinity suggesting that it is just one of many dominant forms of masculinity though other forms continue to be marginalised. To me, the powerful, athletic, strong, cool, collected masculine man was embodied in my late brother Scott. We do not know the extent of his symptoms which he may have been ignoring. His mobile phone welcome message was 'Harden up'. This was not helpful, but I think it was an important part of his identity. Hegemonic masculinity, as Connell first suggested, is still alive and kicking. <P> The concept of hegemonic masculinity first was proposed in field reports from a study of social inequality in Australian high schools; in a related conceptual discussion of the making of masculinities and the experiences of men's bodies; and in a debate over the role of men in Australian labor politics. For example, Laurie argues that the hegemonic masculinity framework lends itself to a modified essentialism, wherein the achievement of masculine goals is frequently attributed to a way of thinking understood as inherent to the male psyche, and in relation to an innate disposition for homosocial bonding. <P> Consequently, hegemonic masculinity was reformulated to include gender hierarchy, the geography of masculine configurations, the processes of social embodiment, and the psycho-social dynamics of the varieties of masculinity. For example, Laurie argues that the hegemonic masculinity framework lends itself to a modified essentialism, wherein the achievement of masculine goals is frequently attributed to a way of thinking understood as inherent to the male psyche, and in relation to an innate disposition for homosocial bonding.

how long do mushrooms stay fresh in the fridge
|
<P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Generally, you do not want to keep mushrooms for longer than a week. However, the general method of checking that your mushrooms are still fresh is to feel them. If they feel slimy or look darker than normal, it is time to throw them away. I would say about the same if they are stored in their original container or package. If you use a Green Bag, I have kept them as long as three weeks-I'm absolutely serious. If you do not have a Green Bag, a muslin bag or cloth will work nearly as well. <P> How to store Mushrooms to extend their shelf life? To extend their shelf life it is best to store them whole and un-peeled in a sealed plastic bag in the fridge. For a longer term option, mushrooms may be frozen for 6-8 months, but they should be cooked first and placed in freezer safe containers. *An important note about expiration dates... Although the Mushrooms shelf life information on Eat By Date is generally reliable, please remember that individual cases will vary and that our advice should only be taken as an opinion and not a replacement for your health care professional. <P> Meats are kept better in the freezer.

If you do not have a Green Bag, a muslin bag or cloth will work nearly as well. <P> There is no clear consensus. The conservative answer is that mushrooms should be eaten within two days of purchase. However, some experts maintain mushrooms will keep for up to a week after purchase, particularly if stored in cool, dry, and dark places. Pre-slicing mushrooms can shorten their shelf life. Once sliced, mushrooms quickly oxidate. <P> Nine to 10 Days From Packaging Date.

how often should i change snare drum heads
|
<P> In which Jon Dittert, a drum instructor and former 5-Star Drum Shop employee at the Drum Center of Lexington, talks about how often, or rather WHEN, to change your drum heads. Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/jondittert. Other Channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/jonditter... <P> The top snare should slide off to the left or right. You may need to loosen the tension a bit more.With the head and snare off, give your drum a good inspection and cleaning. Look for signs of wear and rust. <P> As with all things musical how often you replace your drumheads is a matter of preference. Some players love old beat-up heads on their drums. They like the worn-in feel and sound. Other players like the fresh sound of new skins. <P> I usually change the snare bottom heads about every fifth batter head. You may experience a different replacement cycle. However, the bottom heads do wear out from the constant snare vibrations and you would be amazed at just how much a dead snare bottom head absolutely kills your snare drum’s sound. <P> I suggest you change the heads on the bottom of your toms and snare once a year. Some players never change those heads, but a new set will help liven up your sound. For me, kick drum heads last a long time and only need changing once the beater really starts wearing out the center of the head. <P> Snare Drum Heads. Snare drum heads usually need to be changed twice as often as tom heads. Since most drummers play the snare harder and more often then the toms, this makes sense. A good way to tell if your snare head needs replacing is by pressing down in the middle of the snare. <P> While there are dozens of head producing companies, be sure to get a snare head. Any other kind of head will cause the snare to not sound as it should. 1 Most heads have size and information (snare, tom, timpani head etc.) on the back of the package. <P> You may want to replace your toms or snare heads more often, again depending on how much you’re playing. For a quick check, closely examine your snare drum batter head.

what are the different metamorphic agents?
|
<P> This only happens when there is directed pressure; confining pressure does not accomplish it. The diagram illustrates the effect. A texture of this sort in a metamorphic rock is called FOLIATION and the rocks are said to be FOLIATED. 3. FLUIDS serve only to speed up other metamorphic processes, or perhaps even allow them to happen at all. Chemical reactions require water, and most proceed much faster as the amount of water goes up. <P> Fluids are an important agent of metamorphism. Most rocks contain some water, but sedimentary rocks hold the most. First there is the water that was trapped in the sediment as it became rock. Second is the water that is liberated by clay minerals as they change back to feldspar and mica. The Four Agents of Regional Metamorphism. Heat and pressure usually work together, because both rise as you go deeper in the Earth. At high temperatures and pressures, the minerals in most rocks break down and change into a different set of minerals that are stable in the new conditions. <P> The clay minerals of sedimentary rocks are a good example. Clays are surface minerals, which form as feldspar and mica break down in the conditions at the Earth's surface. With heat and pressure they slowly return to mica and feldspar. Fluids are an important agent of metamorphism. Every rock contains some water, but sedimentary rocks hold the most. First there is the water that was trapped in the sediment as it became rock. Second is the water that is liberated by clay minerals as they change back to feldspar and mica. The foliated rock types that form under these conditions are called schist or gneiss, depending on their texture. Schist is finely foliated whereas gneiss is organized in wide bands of minerals. Contact or Local Metamorphism A type of metamorphism that is important in specific localities is contact <P> By Andrew Alden. Metamorphic rocks are the third great class of rocks. These are what happens when sedimentary and igneous rocks become changed, or metamorphosed (changed in form), by conditions underground. The four main agents that metamorphose rocks are heat, pressure, fluids and strain. The Four Agents of Regional Metamorphism. Heat and pressure usually work together, because both rise as you go deeper in the Earth. At high temperatures and pressures, the minerals in most rocks break down and change into a different set of minerals that are stable in the new conditions. <P> Using the rock cycle, explain the statement one rock is the raw material for another.. In short, the magma from which igneous rocks from may be produced when any rock is melted. Sedimentary rocks are formed from weathered products of preexisting rocks, whether igneous metamorphic, or sedimentary. Finally, metamorphic rocks are created when any rock type undergoes metamorphism <P> The way that this form of metamorphism works is that rocks are scraped against each other causing them to be ground into a powder. Then this powder is reformed due to the pressure in the zone and the heat caused by friction of the two rock surfaces. Rocks are classified by the processes under which they were formed. The differences in formation account for variations in the appearance of the rocks and, with some practice, you can learn to recognize the different types by sight. Metamorphic Rocks are rocks that have changed form due to heat and pressure. <P> Metamorphism is the change of minerals or geologic texture (distinct arrangement of minerals) in pre-existing rocks (protoliths), without the protolith melting into liquid magma (a solid-state change). The change occurs primarily due to heat, pressure, and the introduction of chemically active fluids. <P> There are three agents of metamorphism in the changing of metamorphic rocks. They are heat, pressure, and hydro thermal solutions. The three main types of metamorphism are: Regional Metamorphism Contact Metamorphism Hydrothermal metamorphism Regional metamorphism is caused when high temperature and pressu … re affect large regions of Earths crust, It can range from low grade to high grade. <P> 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. Quartzite is a non-foliated metamorphic rock that is produced by the metamorphism of sandstone. It is composed primarily of quartz. The specimen above is about two inches (five centimeters) across. <P> The three agents of metamorphism are heat, pressure, and chemically active fluids. Heat is the most important agent of metamorphism because it provides the energy that drives the chemical reactions responsible for mineral and textural changes during metamorphism. In short, the magma from which igneous rocks from may be produced when any rock is melted. Sedimentary rocks are formed from weathered products of preexisting rocks, whether igneous metamorphic, or sedimentary.

what consistency should icing be for decorating a cake
|
<P> There are 3 buttercream icing consistencies used for piping techniques when decorating with buttercream, and you need to know what consistencies work best for the different types of cake decorations. <P> Piping Icing. Piping icing is similar to toothpaste in consistency. When you squeeze the bag, it should come out in a smooth line without breaking or cracking. I most often use this consistency for outlining, detail work, and writing. You can see my video on piping consistency icing HERE. <P> This is the icing consistency I get the most questions about. First of all, there is no special recipe for twenty-second icing. It regular royal icing thinned with water. I most often use this consistency to create dimension, decrease prep and decorating time, and to prevent cratering when filling small spaces. <P> The thin frosting is also used for icing the surface of the cake. 1 To create a thin consistency frosting, add 1 teaspoon of Karo syrup and 1 teaspoon of milk to the stiff consistency frosting. 2 The thin consistency frosting should droop slightly more than the medium consistency. <P> Directions. 1 This royal icing is piping consistency… but you may still need to add a little more powdered sugar to thicken, or a few drops of water to make it thinner, depending on the consistency you are going for. 2 This recipe can also be halved. 3 Add meringue powder to warm water in your mixing bowl. <P> The consistency of the frosting is very important when decorating cakes, cupcakes, and cookies. You will want to use different consistencies for doing different types of decorating to make the job easier. <P> Thin Consistency. A thin consistency is used for frosting the cake, and for decorating with the smaller round tips for piping/writing letters or doing outlines, dots, swirls, piping stringwork, lattice, vines, etc. Watch the video below to see what buttercream icing consistencies look like. <P> Buttercream Frosting is a type of frosting that is easy to work with when decorating cakes and the consistency can be adjusted as necessary. Shown below is a recipe for Decorator's Buttercream Frosting and information on how and when you may need to adjust the consistency when decorating cakes. <P> 1 This royal icing is piping consistency… but you may still need to add a little more powdered sugar to thicken, or a few drops of water to make it thinner, depending on the consistency you are going for. 2 This recipe can also be halved. 3 Add meringue powder to warm water in your mixing bowl.

what is jojoba
|
<P> Jojoba is LIKELY SAFE for most people when applied to the skin. It can cause some side effects such as rash and allergic reactions. Jojoba is LIKELY UNSAFE for anyone when taken by mouth. Jojoba contains a chemical called erucic acid, which can cause serious side effects such as heart damage. Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Applying jojoba to the skin during pregnancy and breast-feeding is LIKELY SAFE. But it is LIKELY UNSAFE to take jojoba by mouth. <P> Jojoba /həˈhoʊbə/ , with the botanical name Simmondsia chinensis, and also known as goat nut, deer nut, pignut, wild hazel, quinine nut, coffeeberry, and gray box bush, is native to Southwestern North America. Simmondsia chinensis is the sole species of the family Simmondsiaceae, placed in the order Caryophyllales. Plantations of jojoba have been established in a number of desert and semi-desert areas, predominantly in Argentina, Australia, Israel, Mexico, Peru and the United States. <P> Jojoba (pronounced ho-HO-ba) oil is a botanical extract of the seed of the jojoba tree (Simmondsia chinenis). Technically it is not actually an oil, but rather what is called a wax ester. Because out of all of the compounds in nature, this wax ester is the most similar to human skin oil (sebum). It is theorized that applying jojoba to the skin can trick the skin into thinking it is producing enough oil, thus balancing oil production. <P> Jojoba oil is interesting for the industry because it is odorless and it has a viscosity which is temperature-independent. Applications vary from engine lubricating oil to cooking oil. Jojoba wax is used predominantly for pharmaceutical compounds, specially for skin products. Plantations of jojoba have been established in a number of desert and semi-desert areas, predominantly in Argentina, Australia, Israel, Mexico, Peru and the United States. <P> Glass vial containing jojoba oil. Jojoba oil /həˈhoʊbə/ is the liquid produced in the seed of the Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) plant, a shrub, which is native to southern Arizona, southern California, and northwestern Mexico. The oil makes up approximately 50% of the jojoba seed by weight. Jojoba oil is used as a replacement for whale oil and its derivatives, such as cetyl alcohol. The ban on importing whale oil to the US in 1971 led to the discovery that jojoba oil is in many regards superior to sperm oil for applications in the cosmetics and other industries.. <P> JOJOBA Overview Information. Jojoba is a shrub that is grows in dry regions of northern Mexico and the southwestern US. Jojoba oil and wax are produced from the seeds and used for medicine. Jojoba is applied directly to the skin for acne, psoriasis, sunburn, and chapped skin. It is also used topically to encourage the regrowth of hair in people who are balding. Jojoba is LIKELY UNSAFE for anyone when taken by mouth. Jojoba contains a chemical called erucic acid, which can cause serious side effects such as heart damage. Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Applying jojoba to the skin during pregnancy and breast-feeding is LIKELY SAFE. But it is LIKELY UNSAFE to take jojoba by mouth. <P> Jojoba does not shed its leaves with the changes in seasons. The jojoba plant is dioecious. The gender of jojoba plants can only be discerned from their flowers. When planted from seeds, jojoba plants can take up to three years to produce flowers. The female plants produce seed from flowers the male plants pollinate. The differences between jojoba and coffee are more than skin deep. Of more than 350,000 identified plant species, jojoba is the only one which produces significant quantities of liquid wax esters akin to the natural restorative esters human sebaceous glands produce. <P> The word jojoba (pronounced ho-HO-ba) refers both to the desert plant and to the extract obtained from its seed. Regrettably, many people and companies continue to refer to jojoba as jojoba oil. In fact, jojoba is NOT oil, and you'll understand why as you continue to read. The differences between jojoba and coffee are more than skin deep. Of more than 350,000 identified plant species, jojoba is the only one which produces significant quantities of liquid wax esters akin to the natural restorative esters human sebaceous glands produce.

what is rodogyl used for
|
<P> Spiramycin has been used in Europe since the year 2000 under the trade name Rovamycine, produced by Rhone-Poulenc Rorer and Famar Lyon, France and Eczacibasi Ilae, Turkey. It also goes under the name Rovamycine in Canada (distributed by OdanLaboratories), where it is mostly marketed to dentists for mouth infections. <P> Expert: Mark Bornfeld replied 4 years ago. Welcome to JustAnswer, and thank you for putting your trust in me! The usefulness of Rodogyl in dental infection would depend on how it is being used in the broader context of your dental treatment, and the type of dental infection you have. <P> TEVAQUEL 200 mg. 60 tablets What TEVAQUEL 200 mg tablets is and what it is used TEVAQUEL 200 mg fi...

This product is a combination of two antibiotics from the group of imidazole and macrolide. It is intended for the treatment of buccal-dental infections (dental abscesses, phlegmon, infection of the salivary glands). <P> Rodogyl is not particularly effective against dento-alveolar abscess, which constitutes the majority of acute dental infections. For this application, you would be better off with one of the semi-synthetic penicillins, such as penicillin V or amoxicillin. <P> Spiramycin is a macrolide antibiotic. It is used to treat toxoplasmosis and various other infections of soft tissues. Although used in Europe, Canada and Mexico, spiramycin is still considered an experimental drug in the United States, but can sometimes be obtained by special permission from the FDA for toxoplasmosis in the first trimester of pregnancy.

united waive change fee
|
<P> Virgin America and JetBlue change fees vary from $75 to $150. Passengers who want to change nonrefundable tickets not only pay change fees, but must pay any fare difference. Southwest does not charge a change fee at all– passengers only pay the fare difference. Airline change fees have been around for as long as, well, the airlines-or at least since this old IBM reservations terminal from the 1980s was used (Photo: AJMexico Flickr). A TravelSkills reader is shocked when he’s asked to pay a $200 change fee to get a lower fare. <P> Changing your ticket on United Airlines will now cost you a little bit more. The nation's biggest airline upped its charge for making changes to domestic itineraries to $200, a $50 increase. The change — which also covers itineraries between the USA and Canada — took effect April 18. We adjusted this fee to better compensate us for those costs.. With the change, however, United will now have the highest change fee for domestic tickets among the USA's five biggest airlines. American, Delta and US Airways each charge $150 for passengers wanting to make changes to nonrefundable tickets. <P> “@thepointsguy How do I ask United to refund a flight or waive the change fee? Flight was only $218 so the change fee makes a credit useless.”. A big trend in the airline industry has been the increase in fees, for everything from priority security and boarding, to baggage allowances and ticket changes. <P> United Airlines has quietly raised its ticket change fee by $50 to $200-$300 on paid tickets, from the previous change fee of $150-$250. <P> Change Fees. Based on the fare rules, you may have to pay a service fee and/or a difference in fare. For travel within the 50 United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the fee is $200 for Delta-marketed flights. For travel outside the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, the change fee for Delta-marketed flights is typically $200 to $500, but can vary based on location and type of fare. Changes are usually permitted only to the return portion of an international itinerary. <P> The fee is $110 for award flights. There is no fee to change or cancel a flight ticketed within 24 hours, so long as the reservation was made at least 7 days prior to departure. United Airlines charges change fees of $200 for domestic flights and up to $400 or more for international itineraries. Same day changes can be made for $75, but that fee is waived for MileagePlus Premier Gold, Premier Platinum and Premier 1K members. American Airlines has a whopping $200 change fee on paid fares (other than full fare refundable tickets) for domestic flights, and up to $450 for international flights. Same day changes are $75 in economy and free for business and first class passengers on paid fares. <P> United Airlines ups domestic change fee to $200. Changing your ticket on United Airlines will now cost you a little bit more. The airline upped its change for making changes to domestic itineraries to $200, a $50 increase. The change – which also cover. We adjusted this fee to better compensate us for those costs.. With the change, however, United will now have the highest change fee for domestic tickets among the USA's five biggest airlines. American, Delta and US Airways each charge $150 for passengers wanting to make changes to nonrefundable tickets. <P> The price of change just went up. United Airlines raised its ticket change fees by $50 on April 18 to $200 for domestic tickets and $300 for international itineraries. Other airlines haven’t yet raised their change fees. But like baggage fees, rivals may well jump at a chance to raise fees ever higher <P> His return ticket cost $134, plus baggage fees. But United’s change fee, which was recently raised from $150 to $200, would have completely zeroed out the value of his credit. So he booked a one-way return flight on Southwest Airlines for $152—about the same as his original flight, including baggage fees—and never looked back.

what kind of beaks do macaws have
|
<P> Precision Tools. Your parrot's beak is powerful and it's precise. Parrots use their beaks to eat a variety of foods that require something other than sheer force to consume. For example, a parrot may use his beak like a surgical scalpel to removing seeds from their casings or to peel fruit. <P> Though Macaws, especially the large Macaws, have a daunting presence and formidable beaks, they are highly intelligent. These stunning birds show exquisite control, selectively using their powerful beaks with finesse. <P> Parrots are often called hookbills, which is an avicultural term based on the shape of the beak or bill. This distinguishes parrots from softbills and other birds, such as doves and finches. <P> Hooked beaks have an upper mandible that is longer than the lower mandible. The upper part of the beak also hooks over the lower part. This type of beak is found in many types of birds that need to tear and shred their food such as hawks, owls, and parrots. <P> Hyacinth macaws are one of the largest species of parrot. They are beautiful, smart, and can even mimic human speech. They have a blue body of feathers, a solid black beak, and yellow circling their eyes and lower part of their beak. They nest in pre-existing holes in trees with a clutch of two to three eggs. <P> Macaws are the largest of all parrots. There are 16 different species of macaws and they range in size from a little over three feet to one foot. They have beautiful, graceful, tails that are as long or longer than their bodies. They also have long, pointed wings that enable them to fly swiftly. <P> The macaw has a large and powerful beak which means that the macaw can break the shells of nuts and seeds more easily. Like other species of parrot, macaws have four toes on each foot, with two toes facing forward and two toes facing backward. <P> Parrot beaks are extremely strong, and one of their primary tools for protecting themselves. The same beak strength a parrot uses to take down would-be predators allows him to enjoy a varied diet -- instead of just eating small or soft foods, he can easily bust open nuts and seeds that have hard outer shells.

datscan what is it
|
<P> However, the DaTscan can only help in the diagnosis to a certain extent. It can point towards Parkinsonism, but cannot help the doctor distinguish between many similar disorders, of which classic Parkinson's disease is one. GE Healthcare announced the availability of DaTscan™ (Ioflupane I 123 Injection) in June 2011. <P> The hallmark of Parkinson’s disease is the loss of these neurons and a decrease in dopamine; when these neurons die, there are fewer dopamine transporters, leading to decreased activity on the brain scan. For the classic motor symptoms of Parkinson’s to be present, typically 50% or more of these neurons must be lost. <P> When using the DaTscan, the patient is injected with a small quantity of a radioactive contrast agent which binds to dopamine transporters in the brain. Then, a scanner is used to measure how much of the contrast agent there is in the brain, and where exactly it is. <P> DaTSCAN is a solution for injection that contains the active substance ioflupane (123 I). DaTSCAN is for diagnostic use only. It is used to detect the loss of nerve cells in an area of the brain called the striatum, specifically the cells that release dopamine, a chemical messenger. <P> DaTscan is the trade name for Ioflupane I-123, which is a radiotracer used in a nuclear medicine imaging test called brain SPECT. DaTscan binds to the presynaptic dopamine active transporter (DAT) on neurons that communicate with areas controlling movement, including the striatum. <P> A Stacy Wiegman, PharmD, Pharmacy, answered. DaTscan is a drug used in combination with brain scans to help doctors diagnose Parkinson's disease in people who have tremors that could be caused by other conditions. <P> In situations like these, where the physical exam or symptoms may be atypical for Parkinson’s disease, an imaging test called a DaTscan may help to either confirm the diagnosis of Parkinson’s or make it unlikely. <P> DaTscan is a radiopharmaceutical imaging agent that works by binding to dopamine transporters (DaT) in the brain. A specific marker for DaT, DaTscan produces images that provide visual evidence of the presence of dopamine transporters.

who first wrote the activity theory of aging
|
<P> Activity theory is more of a descriptive meta-theory or framework than a predictive theory. It considers an entire work/activity system (including teams, organizations, etc.) beyond just one actor or user. Activity theory is most often used to describe actions in a socio-technical system through six related elements (Bryant et al. as defined by Leonti'ev 1981 and redefined in Engestroem engeström) 1987 of a conceptual system expanded by more nuanced: 1 Theories-object-orientedness the objective of the activity. system <P> The activity theory, also known as the implicit theory of ageing, normal theory of ageing, and lay theory of ageing, proposes that successful aging occurs when older adults stay active and maintain social interactions. The activity theory rose in opposing response to the disengagement theory. The activity theory and the disengagement theory were the two major theories that outlined successful aging in the early 1960s. The theory was developed by Robert J. Havighurst in 1961. <P> This was one of the first theories proposed, with the theory first being published in the early 1960s. Why I listed the date on this one was that it failed to consider the cultural shift with old age. Same goes for people of any age. Often, the activity theory is dismissed to some degree because it falls a little flat. It isn't sufficient to just be busy, like the definition states. You can't wake up every day and do the same thing like riding a stationary bike, and expect to age well. <P> They are: 1 Activity theory: Occurs when individuals engage in a full day of activities and maintain a level of productivity. 2 Continuity theory: Is when individuals who age successfully continue habits, preferences, lifestyles, and relationships through midlife and later. Same goes for people of any age. Often, the activity theory is dismissed to some degree because it falls a little flat. It isn't sufficient to just be busy, like the definition states. You can't wake up every day and do the same thing like riding a stationary bike, and expect to age well. <P> The activity theory states that optimal aging occurs when individuals participate in activities, pursuits, and relationships. The activity theory rose in opposing response to the disengagement theory. The activity theory and the disengagement theory were the two major theories that outlined successful aging in the early 1960s. The theory was developed by Robert J. Havighurst in 1961. <P> The activity theory occurs when individuals engage in a full day of activities and maintain a level of productivity to age successfully. The activity theory basically says: the more you do, the better you will age. Same goes for people of any age. Often, the activity theory is dismissed to some degree because it falls a little flat. It isn't sufficient to just be busy, like the definition states. You can't wake up every day and do the same thing like riding a stationary bike, and expect to age well. <P> The second major line of development within activity theory involves Russian scientists, such as P. K. Anokhin and N. A. Bernshtein, more directly concerned with the neurophysiological basis of activity; its foundation is associated with the Soviet philosopher of psychology S. L. Rubinshtein. Activity theory is most often used to describe actions in a socio-technical system through six related elements (Bryant et al. as defined by Leonti'ev 1981 and redefined in Engestroem engeström) 1987 of a conceptual system expanded by more nuanced: 1 Theories-object-orientedness the objective of the activity. system <P> Activity Theory. The activity theory occurs when individuals engage in a full day of activities and maintain a level of productivity to age successfully. The activity theory basically says: the more you do, the better you will age. It makes a certain kind of sense, too. Same goes for people of any age. Often, the activity theory is dismissed to some degree because it falls a little flat. It isn't sufficient to just be busy, like the definition states. You can't wake up every day and do the same thing like riding a stationary bike, and expect to age well. <P> The critics of the activity theory state that it overlooks inequalities in health and economics that hinders the ability for older people to engage in such activities. Also, some older adults do not desire to engage in new challenges. The activity theory rose in opposing response to the disengagement theory. The activity theory and the disengagement theory were the two major theories that outlined successful aging in the early 1960s. The theory was developed by Robert J. Havighurst in 1961.

what is root mse
|
<P> Dividing the sum of squares of the residual (851.469) by its degrees of freedom (72) yields 11.826. That is the mean sum of squares. If you further take a square root, you'll get Root MSE (3.4289 in the output). Basically, it's a measurement of accuracy. The more accurate model would have less error, leading to a smaller error sum of squares, then MS, then Root MSE. 1 Square them. 2 Add them up, this will give you the Error sum of squares, SS in Stata output. 3 Divide it by the error's degrees of freedom, this will give you the Mean error sum of squares, MS in Stata output. 4 Take a square root of it, and this is the Root MSE. <P> Mean squared error: the expected value of the square of the error.. Root mean square error: a measure of the difference between values predicted by a model or an estimator and the values actually observed from the thing being modeled or estimated. These differences are also called residuals. Source(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_er. <P> Is a root square MSE value a value that is interpreted in relation to the data, or is it on a scale of its own (where 0 is none and 1 is a great correlation etc.). I am using SAS to analyze a dataset and I ended up with a root MSE value of 136.125... Answers. Best Answer: The root MSE can take on any positive value. While particular values of MSE other than zero are meaningless in and of themselves, they may be used for comparative purposes. <P> 1 Add them up, this will give you the Error sum of squares, SS in Stata output. 2 Divide it by the error's degrees of freedom, this will give you the Mean error sum of squares, MS in Stata output. 3 Take a square root of it, and this is the Root MSE. 1 Square them. 2 Add them up, this will give you the Error sum of squares, SS in Stata output. 3 Divide it by the error's degrees of freedom, this will give you the Mean error sum of squares, MS in Stata output. 4 Take a square root of it, and this is the Root MSE. <P> The Root MSE, or root mean squared error, is the square root of 0.427, or the mean squared error. You can find the MSE, 0.427, in right hand side of the subtable in the upper left section of the readout. This subtable is called the ANOVA, or analysis of variance, table. <P> (Redirected from Mean square error). In statistics, the mean squared error (MSE) of an estimator measures the average of the squares of the errors, that is, the difference between the estimator and what is estimated. MSE is a risk function, corresponding to the expected value of the squared error loss or quadratic loss. The MSE is the second moment (about the origin) of the error, and thus incorporates both the variance of the estimator and its bias. For an unbiased estimator, the MSE is the variance of the estimator. <P> Not to be confused with Root-mean-square deviation of atomic positions. The root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) or root-mean-square error (RMSE) is a frequently used measure of the differences between values (sample and population values) predicted by a model or an estimator and the values actually observed. The RMSD of an estimator with respect to an estimated parameter is defined as the square root of the mean square error : For an unbiased estimator, the RMSD is the square root of the variance, known as the standard error <P> The smaller the Mean Squared Error, the closer the fit is to the data. The MSE has the units squared of whatever is plotted on the vertical axis. Another quantity that we calculate is the Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). It is just the square root of the mean square error. That is probably the most easily interpreted statistic, since it has the same units as the quantity plotted on the vertical axis. Key point: The RMSE is thus the distance, on average, of a data point from the fitted line, measured along a vertical line.

different types of salts used in daily life
|
<P> The most common salt is sodium chloride or table salt which forms by the combination of sodium hydroxide (base) and hydrochloric acid. Other examples include Epsom salts(MgSO 4) used in bath salts, ammonium nitrate (NH 4 NO 3) used as fertilizer, and baking soda (NaHCO 3) used in cooking. For example, Hydrochloric acid (HCl) in water. At the same time bases are the substances that produce hydroxide ion OH-in water. Acids and bases react with one another to yield two products: water, and an ionic compound known as salt. <P> Apparently we use salt in more than 14,000 different ways from the making of products as varied as plastic, paper, glass, polyester, rubber and fertilisers to household bleach, soaps, detergents and dyes. Everyone uses salt, directly or indirectly. Water Conditioning. Industrial Chemicals. The greatest single use for salt is as a feedstock for the production of industrial chemicals and in total accounts for 68% of all the salt manufactured. Food Grade Salt. All animals, humans included, require both sodium and chloride for life and health. <P> Salts are formed due to the combination of an anion and a cation from the base and acid respectively; and therefore the pH of the salt solution completely depends on the constituent acid and base from which the salt is formed. Many living bodies including human body also contains some kinds of acids and bases. A very common acid is the dilute Hydrochloric acid present in our stomach, which involves in the digestion process of food materials in stomach. Urine, blood, and intestinal fluid are alkaline in nature. <P> Salt is an extremely abundant mineral. You might think of it primarily as that thing on the dinner table you use to add some flavor to your food, and it's certainly useful for that, but the uses of salt extend far beyond that; there's a reason the Romans prized it so much that soldiers were paid in it. <P> Acids, alkalis and salts are different types of chemicals with a huge variety of uses. Alkalis The chemistry of acids and bases alkalis is introduced by looking at common domestic examples in the home and not just in industry or the chemical laboratory. Ammonium salts, phosphate salts and magnesium/potassium sulfate salts are used in fertilisers for the garden. Soluble aspirin is made by neutralising the acidic form of the medication with sodium hydroxide to make a soluble salt, or its made in situ with a bicarbonate 'fizzing' mixture. <P> EXAMPLES of the 'everyday life' of acids, alkalis and neutralisation to form salts. In the HOME: You can pre test the soil with pH paper and match the colour the paper turns with the pH number it indicates. These chemicals can be used on a larger scale in farming and treating acidic rivers and lakes. Ammonium salts, phosphate salts and magnesium/potassium sulfate salts are used in fertilisers for the garden. Soluble aspirin is made by neutralising the acidic form of the medication with sodium hydroxide to make a soluble salt, or its made in situ with a bicarbonate 'fizzing' mixture. <P> Origin: Either the sea or the earth. Widely sold brands include Morton and Diamond Crystal, which are made using different methods. Kosher salt got its name because its craggy crystals make it perfect for curing meat―a step in the koshering process. Rock salt is paired with ice in old-fashioned hand-cranked ice cream makers to regulate the temperature. You can also use it to deice your sidewalks and driveway in the winter months. Origin: Mined from deposits in the earth, rock salt is not sold for use directly on food. <P> From Wikipedia. Salt (chemistry). In chemistry, salts are ionic compounds that can result from the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base. They are composed of cation s (positively charged ions) and anion s (negative ions) so that the product is electrically neutral (without a net charge). Many living bodies including human body also contains some kinds of acids and bases. A very common acid is the dilute Hydrochloric acid present in our stomach, which involves in the digestion process of food materials in stomach. Urine, blood, and intestinal fluid are alkaline in nature. <P> Other examples of salts are Epsom salts (MgSO 4) used in bath salts, Ammonium Nitrate (NH 4 NO 3) used as a fertilizer and Baking Soda (NaHCO 3) used in cooking. The chemical formula of salt derives from the formula of constituent acid and base. Many living bodies including human body also contains some kinds of acids and bases.

what is escheated
|
<P> Escheat is the reversion of property to a state when that property is lacking claimants or heirs. In the oil & gas industry, the property is usually an unclaimed oil and gas royalty or override payment. The property can be unclaimed for several reasons, but most often it is because the address of the owner is unknown. <P> DEFINITION of 'Escheat'. The transfer of title of property or an estate to the state when an individual dies without a will and legal heirs. Escheat ensures that property always has a recognized owner, which would be the state or government if no other claimants to ownership exist. Most jurisdictions have their own laws and regulations defining escheat and the circumstances under which it can be invoked. <P> The term escheat derives ultimately from the Latin ex-cadere, to fall-out, via mediaeval French escheoir. The sense is of a feudal estate in land falling-out of the possession by a family into possession by the overlord. <P> Escheat. The acquisition of property by a state or government from the estate of a deceased person. An escheat occurs when the deceased person has no will, no relatives, and no survivors to whom the property would otherwise go. Because it is rare for a person to have no relatives at all, escheats are fairly unusual. <P> In feudal law. Escheat Is an obstruction of the course of descent, andconsequent determination of the tenure, by some unforeseen contingency, in whichcase the land naturally results back, by a kind of reversion, to the original grantor, orlord of the fee. 2 Bl.

what is a reproductive structure
|
<P> The main external structures of the female reproductive system include: 1 Labia majora: The labia majora enclose and protect the other external reproductive organs. 2 Literally translated as large lips, the labia majora are relatively large and fleshy, and are comparable to the scrotum in males. A. The female reproductive system is designed to carry out several functions. It produces the female egg cells necessary for reproduction, called the ova or oocytes. The system is designed to transport the ova to the site of fertilization. <P> Font Size. A. A. A. The purpose of the organs of the male reproductive system is to perform the following functions: 1 To produce, maintain, and transport sperm (the male reproductive cells) and protective fluid (semen). 2 To discharge sperm within the female reproductive tract during sex. <P> Most of the male reproductive system is located outside of the man’s abdominal cavity or pelvis. The external structures of the male reproductive system are the penis, the scrotum and the testicles. Penis — The penis is the male organ for sexual intercourse. It has three parts: the root, which attaches to the wall of the abdomen; the body, or shaft; and the glans, which is the cone-shaped end of the penis. The Male Reproductive System. The organs of the male reproductive system are specialized for the following functions: 1 To produce, maintain and transport sperm (the male reproductive cells) and protective fluid (semen). 2 To discharge sperm within the female reproductive tract. 3 To produce and secrete male sex hormones. <P> The scrotum, testes (testicles), vas deferens, seminal vesicles, and prostate comprise the rest of the reproductive system. The penis consists of the root (which is attached to the lower abdominal structures and pelvic bones), the visible part of the shaft, and the glans penis (the cone-shaped end). <P> The reproductive system or genital system is a system of sex organs within an organism which work together for the purpose of sexual reproduction. Many non-living substances such as fluids, hormones, and pheromones are also important accessories to the reproductive system. <P> The primary function of the reproductive system is to produce male and female sex cells and to ensure the growth and development of offspring. The reproductive system is comprised of male and female reproductive organs and structures. The growth and activity of these organs and structures is regulated by hormones. The female reproductive system contains organs and structures that promote the production, support, growth, and development of female gametes (egg cells) and a growing fetus. Sources: 1 SEER Training Modules, Introduction to the Reproductive System. <P> Male System The structure and function of the human male reproductive system, is very similar to that of many other mammals. The male system is designed to make sperm or male gametes and is adapted to provide for the delivery of these gametes to the female to allow for fertilization. <P> The female gametophyte structure that produces eggs in nonvascular plants are called archegonia. The male structure that produces sperm are called antheridia. A gametophyt … e is the part of the plant that is responsible for creating gametes AKA sexual reproductive cell (sperm or egg). The reproductive structure of a gymnosperm is the cone. The cone produces pollen or sperm cells that will later on fertilize a female plants eggs or anthers. <P> The female reproductive system has two functions: The first is to produce egg cells, and the second is to protect and nourish the offspring until birth. The male reproductive system has one function, and it is to produce and deposit sperm. Humans have a high level of sexual differentiation. The human reproductive system usually involves internal fertilization by sexual intercourse. During this process, the male inserts his erect penis into the female's vagina and ejaculates semen, which contains sperm.

what is caused by genetic mutations
|
<P> Mutations can be caused by external (exogenous) or endogenous (native) factors, or they may be caused by errors in the cellular machinery. Physical or chemical agents that induce mutations in DNA are called mutagens and are said to be mutagenic. <P> Such types of mutations are also called as mosaicism. Here are some diseases which are caused by gene mutations:- 1)Cystic Fibrosis:- Cystic fibrosis is a single gene mutation. This disease is related with secretory glands of the body like sweat and mucus. This is a hereditary disease. <P> A Mutation occurs when a DNA gene is damaged or changed in such a way as to alter the genetic message carried by that gene. A Mutagen is an agent of substance that can bring about a permanent alteration to the physical composition of a DNA gene such that the genetic message is changed. <P> Sickle cell anemia is the result of a point mutation, a change in just one nucleotide in the gene for hemoglobin. This mutation causes the hemoglobin in red blood cells to distort to a sickle shape when deoxygenated. The sickle-shaped blood cells clog in the capillaries, cutting off circulation. <P> Mutations cause changes in the genetic code that lead to genetic variation and the potential to develop disease. Gene mutations can be generally categorized into two types: point mutations and base-pair insertions or deletions. Point mutations are the most common type of gene mutation. <P> A gene mutation is a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene, such that the sequence differs from what is found in most people. Mutations range in size; they can affect anywhere from a single DNA building block (base pair) to a large segment of a chromosome that includes multiple genes. <P> Mutations can also be caused by exposure to specific chemicals or radiation. These agents cause the DNA to break down. This is not necessarily unnatural even in the most isolated and pristine environments, DNA breaks down. Nevertheless, when the cell repairs the DNA, it might not do a perfect job of the repair.

<P> Normal body temperature can range from 97.8 degrees F (or Fahrenheit, equivalent to 36.5 degrees C, or Celsius) to 99 degrees F (37.2 degrees C) for a healthy adult. A person's body temperature can be taken in any of the following ways: Orally. <P> Most people think of a normal body temperature as an oral temperature of 98.6°F (37°C) . This is an average of normal body temperatures. Your temperature may actually be 1°F (0.6°C) or more above or below <P> Most people think a normal body temperature is an oral temperature (by mouth) of 37°C (98.6°F) . This is an average of normal body temperatures. Your normal temperature may actually be 0.6°C (1°F) or more above or below this. <P> 37 °C is a value that one encounters probably more often than any other temperature reading. If you are used to the Celsius scale, you recognize it immediately. Indeed, a normal body temperature of a healthy person is in the vicinity of 37 degrees Celsius, which makes this value so special and important. For the Fahrenheit folks, you may know it as 98.6 °F (as you can easily verify using our online converter). <P> Also, your normal body temperature changes by as much as 1°F (0.6°C) throughout the day, depending on how active you are and the time of day. Body temperature is very sensitive to hormone levels and may be higher or lower when a woman is ovulating or having her menstrual period. <P> This is the longest and most inaccurate way of measuring body temperature, the normal temperature falls at 97.6 °F or 36.4 °C. Rectal temperatures are an internal measurement taken in the rectum, which fall at 99.6 °F or 37.6 °C.

how many miles can i go between synthetic oil changes
|
<P> I've heard that you can increase the interval between oil changes if you use a synthetic oil, but no one has been able to tell me precisely how much the interval can be expanded. I have a 2003 Pontiac Bonneville, 3.8l 6 cylinder engine, 128k miles. The car manufacturer maintenance recommends every 7500 miles. Follow. I' <P> That synthetic oil gets changed at 7,000 miles. But regular conventional oil must be changed every 3,000 miles. My local mechanic that I go to is the the most trustworthy mechanic around. I asked him what if I go 5,000 miles between oil changes. He said, you will ruin your engine eventually. <P> Ford, Volkswagen and Porsche, for example, recommend oil changes every 10,000 miles. So does Toyota on several engines, including the Prius' 1.8-liter four-cylinder and the Camry's 2.5-liter four-cylinder. BMW says owners can go up to 15,000 miles between oil changes (with synthetic oil). The intervals vary by manufacturer and engines, so consult your owner's manual or maintenance schedule to see how often to change the oil in your vehicle and what type of oil to use. You may be surprised. If you're nervous about going 10,000 miles or more between oil changes, then do it every six months, when you probably should also have your tires rotated (also explained in your owner's manual). GM says to change your oil at least once a year even if the service indicator warning light doesn't come on. <P> 1 Only Toyota vehicles in which 0w-20 synthetic oil is required (except for the 2TR-FE and 3UR-FBE Engines*) have been approved for extended oil change intervals of 10,000-miles/12-months. ( 2 However, you should continue to check the oil level regularly and top off if needed. Related Questions. 1 Can I use any brand of 0W-20 synthetic oil? 2 How do I determine if my vehicle has conventional or synthetic oil? 3 If I have a Toyota that uses synthetic oil with a 10,000-mile oil change interval, why do I need to come in for service every 5,000-miles/6-months? 4 My vehicle uses conventional motor oil. 5 What should I do if 0W-20 ... <P> 1 In the case of vehicles with 10,000 mile oil change intervals, the 5,000 mile service interval has not been eliminated. 2 The traditional 5,000 mile maintenance procedures (such as tire rotation) will continue to be required, and the fluid levels (such as brake fluid) will need to be checked and adjusted at this time. Related Questions. 1 Can I use any brand of 0W-20 synthetic oil? 2 How do I determine if my vehicle has conventional or synthetic oil? 3 If I have a Toyota that uses synthetic oil with a 10,000-mile oil change interval, why do I need to come in for service every 5,000-miles/6-months? 4 My vehicle uses conventional motor oil. 5 What should I do if 0W-20 ... <P> Now for all corolla's up to 2011 the oil change intervals is set by toyota at 5000 miles or 6 months whichever comes first. However the ideal time to replace your oil is 3000 miles or 6 months whichever comes first. If you are using toyota's genuine oil which then it's 5000 miles. If you are using any other brand of oil then the recommended interval is 3000 miles. I would recommend you replace your engine oil at 3000-4000 miles for the longest life of the engine. If your corolla is 2011-2013 year then it will use a full synthetic 0w20 and then the oil change interval by toyota is 10,000 miles or 1 year whichever comes first. Having said these miles intervals I would highly recommend you check your oil level and adjust it every fuel fill up or at the MOST every 1000 miles <P> Depending on where you drive (dusty, dirty climates), and how much and far you drive (shorter distances don't heat oil enough to boil off condensation in the engine), you can probably last between oil changes for 10,000, 15,000, on up to 20,000 miles with some brands of synthetic. For your pocket book, there is not much of a difference if you allow your oil change cycles to last longer with synthetic. There is a debate on when you should change your oil, because the age old consensus has always been every 3 months or 3,000 miles, whichever comes first. <P> Any synthetic oil can go to about 5000 miles. Just keep in mind how much abuse you put your car through. If you do long hauls a lot then you could get 5k to 6k in between oil changes. But if you do a lot of stop and go and city driving you may want to do it at about 4k. I've heard that you can increase the interval between oil changes if you use a synthetic oil, but no one has been able to tell me precisely how much the interval can be expanded. I have a 2003 Pontiac Bonneville, 3.8l 6 cylinder engine, 128k miles.

llewellyn name definition
|
<P> Lewis Morris is often called Llewelyn Ddu or Llewellyn Ddu o Fon; Fôn williams tells his brother that his baby'son s name Is [... lewis but] later he refers to the child 'As llywelyn'. Fach IN alma 35 King louis Of france is Called Llewelyn' — Ffreinig morgan And (morgan). 1985 Although Llywelyn was the most common form of the name in the medieval period, variant spellings started emerging even in the early Middle Ages, in particular Llewelyn and Llewellyn, spellings that gave rise to a folk belief that the name was connected with lions (the Welsh word for lion being llew). <P> Llewellyn /llewel-lyn/ [3 sylls.] as a boys' name is pronounced loo-ELL-en. It is of Welsh origin, and the meaning of Llewellyn is like a lion . Like the Welsh name Lleu, Llewellyn is also possibly derived from the name of an ancient Celtic god, meaning shining one. Kreatif forms: Llewellan, Llewellin, Llewelne. Llewellyn is an uncommon given name for males but a very popular last name for both adults and children (#5544 out of 150436, Top 4%). (2000 U.S. Census). <P> The origin and thus the meaning of the name Llewellyn is inherited by all variant forms. Llewellyn's language of origin is Welsh.

At the modest height of its usage in 1910, 0.009% of baby boys were given the name Llewellyn. Its ranking then was #722. <P> Recorded in several modern forms including LLewellyn, LLewellin, LLeweln, and LLewhellin, this is an ancient surname of Olde English and Welsh pre 7 century origins. It derives from the Celtic elements llyw meaning leader and eilun, meaning the likeness to. <P> Hello, Guest. Llewellyn / Llywelyn is a common patriotic first name in Wales, with its distinctive Welsh double LL's; in the U.S. Llewellyn would make a daring choice, though with the chance that some might find the ellen sound slightly feminine. Llewelyn Moss is a major character in Cormac McCarthy's No Country for Old Men, played on screen by Josh Brolin. Llewellyn, which can be spelled in a number of ways, has some appealing, if quirky, short forms as well-- Llew, Lleu and Llelo. <P> Llywelyn (. [ɬəˈwɛlɪn]) is a Welsh personal name, which has also become a family name most commonly spelled Llewellyn. The name has many variations and derivations, mainly as a result of the difficulty for non-Welsh speakers of representing the sound of the initial double ll (a voiceless alveolar lateral fricative). Although Llywelyn was the most common form of the name in the medieval period, variant spellings started emerging even in the early Middle Ages, in particular Llewelyn and Llewellyn, spellings that gave rise to a folk belief that the name was connected with lions (the Welsh word for lion being llew). <P> Welsh Meaning: The name Llewellyn is a Welsh baby name. In Welsh the meaning of the name Llewellyn is: Leader. Lion-like. American Meaning: The name Llewellyn is an American baby name. In American the meaning of the name Llewellyn is: Leader. Lion-like. <P> Tweet. Llewellyn is used mostly in Welsh and it is of Celtic origin. Old forms of the name include Lugobelinos (Celtic) and Lugubelenus (Old English).

armpit lymph node location
|
<P> Lymph nodes are small clumps of immune cells that act as filters for the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system runs throughout the body (like the circulatory (blood) system) and carries fluid and cells. The lymph nodes in the underarm (the axillary lymph nodes) are the first place breast cancer is likely to spread. Figure 4.4 shows the location of the axillary lymph nodes. <P> Swollen lymph nodes. Your lymphatic system comprises a network of organs, vessels and numerous lymph nodes situated throughout your body. Most of your lymph nodes are located in your head and neck region. Lymph nodes that frequently swell are in this area, as well as in your armpits and groin area. <P> 1 Lymph nodes are important part of the immune system. 2 Lymph nodes are located throughout the body, but visible and palpable only when they are enlarged or swollen. 3 Lymph nodes are regional, and each group of them corresponds to a particular region of the body and reflects abnormalities in that region. 1 Lymph nodes are located throughout the body, but visible and palpable only when they are enlarged or swollen. 2 <P> Lymph Node Locations. Throughout your body, there are locations where lymph nodes are found. They are small and bean-shaped that are found in groups that filter lymph fluid throughout specific areas of the body. <P> Click to read more below. The axillary nodes are a group of lymph nodes located in the axillary (or armpit) region of the body. They perform the vital function of filtration and conduction of lymph from the upper limbs, pectoral region, and upper back. The axillary lymph nodes are a group of twenty to thirty large lymph nodes located in the deep tissues in and around the armpit. These nodes are arranged into five distinct groups: pectoral (anterior), lateral, subscapular (posterior), central (intermediate), and subclavicular (medial).... <P> An armpit lump usually refers to the enlargement of at least one of the lymph nodes under your arm. Lymph nodes are small, oval-shaped glands that are located throughout the body and play an important role in your body’s immune system. The lump may feel small. In other cases, it may be extremely noticeable. Armpit lumps may be caused by cysts, infection, or irritation due to shaving or using antiperspirants. <P> 1. Know where the lymph nodes are located. You have the highest concentration of lymph nodes in your neck, around your collarbone, in your armpits, and in your groin. 1 Lymph nodes are present in groups, and are about the size of a pea or bean. 2 Lymph nodes located in the groin are also called inguinal lymph nodes. <P> Lymph Node Locations. Lymph nodes are distributed throughout the lymphatic system appearing in singles or in groups. They are most obvious at the neck, armpit, groins and collar bone. Some are buried deeply in the body. A lymph node is a small organ in the lymph or lymphatic system, an interconnected system of organs, vessels, ducts and nodes that allows the lymph to circulate all over the body. <P> Part of the immune system is the lymph system, which includes hundreds of nodes that are located throughout the body. They are instrumental in fighting infection, illness, and disease. There are about 25 axillary lymph nodes that are located in the armpit area. They drain fluid from the breasts and surrounding area. They can become swollen, sensitive, or enlarged when there is a health problem, like a breast infection or cancer.

how are corks made
|
<P> The majority of cork used for flooring, as well as wine-bottle corks, actually comes from the bark of the cork oak tree, or Quercus suber, native to the Mediterranean [sources: World Wildlife Fund and Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew ]. <P> This is a close-up of a piece of bark. It's quite thin, and won't be used to produce high-quality natural cork. But now there are also technical corks, made up of small pieces of cork fused together, which means that more of the cork bark is suitable for producing wine bottle closures. Before processing, the cork planks are put on pallets. How cork is made An illustrated guide to the cork production process. It all starts in the forest. Cork oaks are harvested every nine years, once they reach maturity. It doesn't harm the tree, and the cork bark regrows. <P> 1 Washing the cork -- The cork slabs that are cut away from the tree are boiled and the rough outer layer of the bark is stripped away. 2 Boiling the cork also softens it, making it easier to work with. 3 Punching Bottle Stoppers -- From the slabs of cork, holes are punched out to make bottle stoppers. Cork is actually made of water-resistant cells that separate the outer bark from the delicate interior bark. It has a unique set of properties not found in any other naturally existing material. It is lightweight, rot resistant, fire resistant, termite resistant, impermeable to gas and liquid, soft and buoyant. <P> A custom made product developed entirely to your specification. Made of 100% natural cork or by using cutting-edge technology that serves as basis for our technical cork stoppers, we develop the piece of cork that best meets your needs and creativity. <P> Wine corks can be made of either a single piece of cork, or composed of particles, as in champagne corks; corks made of granular particles are called agglomerated corks. Natural cork closures are used for about 80% of the 20 billion bottles of wine produced each year. After a decline in use as wine-stoppers due to the increase in the use of cheaper synthetic alternatives, cork wine-stoppers are making a comeback and currently represent approximately 60% of wine-stoppers today. There are about 2,200,000 hectares of cork forest worldwide; 34% in Portugal and 27% in Spain. Annual production is about 200,000 tons; 49.6% from Portugal, 30.5% from Spain, 5.8% from Morocco, 4.9% from Algeria, 3.5% from Tunisia, 3.1% Italy, and 2.6% from France. <P> Save. Image by Flickr.com, courtesy of Thomas. Cork is a familiar material, but it is sometimes assumed wrongly to be the product of a great deal of factory processing. Instead, cork literally grows on trees and is a forestry product, and making corks for wine bottles involves only a few simple steps. Cork Trees. The raw material for corks is the bark of the cork oak, an evergreen tree present in southwest Europe and northwest Africa. Cork bark contains a high proportion of suberin, a waxy substance that repels water. <P> Among the many products made from cork are flooring materials (e.g., linoleum), shoe insoles, roofing panels, gaskets, safety helmet liners, bottle stoppers, dartboards, bulletin boards, and cores for golf balls and baseballs. <P> How cork is made Making technical corks-part 2 of an illustrated guide to the cork production process. Some cork planks are too think to have natural corks punched from them. <P> Unlike natural corks, many wine synthetic corks are made from material that is not biodegradable but recyclable as either #4 or #7 (see resin identification code) in many communities. There are two main production techniques for synthetic wine closures: injection molding and extrusion (mono-and co-).

what is nannyberry
|
<P> Submit. The Nannyberry (Lentago) is generally described as a perennial tree or shrub. This is native to the U.S. (United States) has its most active growth period in the spring and summer. The Nannyberry (Lentago) has green foliage and inconspicuous white flowers, with a smattering of conspicuous red fruits or seeds. The greatest bloom is usually observed in the late spring, with fruit and seed production starting in the summer and continuing until fall. Leaves are not retained year to year. The Nannyberry (Lentago) has a long life span relative to most other plant species and a slow growth rate. At maturity, the typical Nannyberry (Lentago) will reach up to 28 feet high, with a maximum height at 20 years of 28 feet. <P> Noteworthy Characteristics. Nannyberry is a large, upright, multi-stemmed, suckering, deciduous shrub which typically grows to 10-18' tall with a spread of 6-12', but may also be grown as a small, single trunk tree which may reach a height of 30'. Non-fragrant white flowers in flat-topped cymes (to 4.5 diameter) appear in spring. Remove root suckers to control spread unless naturalization is desired. Nannyberry is a large, upright, multi-stemmed, suckering, deciduous shrub which typically grows to 10-18' tall with a spread of 6-12', but may also be grown as a small, single trunk tree which may reach a height of 30'. <P> Top 10 unbelievable historical concurrencies. A nannyberry, sweet viburnum, is a deciduous shrub which produces edible berries. It can be grown as a large shrub or a tree and is often used in large numbers as a hedge shrub. This species can reach heights of 20 feet (6 m) and produces lots of fragrant white flowers from late spring through to midsummer. The nannyberry plant is commonly used to attract a variety of wildlife, including insects such as bees and butterflies, which feast on the flowers and nectar. Birds and foraging animals are also attracted to this species; they eat the fruits and seeds, which also helps to disperse the seeds for germination <P> Nannyberry. Nannyberry, which is grown either as a large shrub or a small tree, is great for naturalizing. This Midwest native is known for its exceptional maroon fall color. Additionally, in September and October, blue-black fruit ripens and often persists into December, attracting more than 35 species of birds. Nannyberry, which is grown either as a large shrub or a small tree, is great for naturalizing. This Midwest native is known for its exceptional maroon fall color <P> Nannyberry is a shrub or a small tree that grows up to 30ft. It produces small white flowers and small, juicy fruits. Nannyberry has some common names like Sheepberry and Sweet Viburnum. It is a self pollinating pant and is slightly deer resistant. 1 Nannyberry is often eaten raw and sometimes crushed or sliced. 2 When sugar is added to the pulp, the natural juices come out and the crushed berries then produce a sauce that can be had with cakes and ice-cream. 3 Nannyberry extracts are used as an ingredient in pies, cakes, sorbets and other desserts. <P> In the landscape, nannyberry is grown as a large, suckering shrub or a single-or multi-stemmed small tree. It is a durable and easy-to-grow plant throughout Minnesota because of its hardiness, its ability to grow in light or shade, and its adaptability across a wide range of soil textures, moisture levels, and soil pH. Nannyberry in the landscape. Nannyberry is Minnesota's largest native viburnum. In prairie habitats, it forms large thickets. As an understory plant in forested areas, nannyberry rarely forms thickets and is a smaller shrub with only a few stems.

average length of a school day in the us
|
<P> At the middle school level (grades 6-8), Chinese students attend just under 1,000 hours of school per year, a figure similar to that of most U.S. states. Just as with India, the data shows that Chinese students are not required to receive 25 to 30 percent more in-school instruction per year than U.S. students. Elementary students in half of these states perform above the national average 3, while in the other half elementary students score below the national average. The 1,000 instructional hours India requires in grades 6-8 (middle school) is similar to the requirement in most states. <P> [...] school days and year round schooling. The average school year in America is about 180 days long, shorter than the school years of most nations that outperform the US (Sweden’s is on the low end with only 170 school days per year). <P> That headline caught my attention as I expect it would most education support professionals (ESPs) and teachers. While most school days average 6.5 hours, the article said that Maynard Academy in Cambridge, Massachusetts was experimenting with an 8-hour school day, one of only 10 states to do so. Consult Everyone. In my particular school an 8-hour school day would force most students to get up at 5:30 a.m., board a bus at 6:30 a.m., and arrive at school at 7:30 a.m. Then, put in eight hours of class, leave at about 4:00 p.m. and return home at 5:00 p.m. This would mean that the students would be putting in almost 12-hour days. <P> Average length of school year and average length of school day, by selected characteristics: United States, 2003–04. <P> By 1969-1970 that average had climbed to 161 school days; today that number is approaching 180 days. This means that the high school graduates of today are in class for what amounts to more than four additional school years — at the 180-day school year level — than graduates of 1910. In fact, during the 2007-2008 school year, the 20 districts in Michigan with the lowest average MEAP scores averaged 30 more hours of instructional time than the 20 districts with the highest average MEAP scores. <P> Average length of school year and average length of school day, by selected characteristics: United States, 2001-02. (Standard Errors for this table). <P> The typical school day is from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and lunch is eaten at school. Students are required to attend school for at least eleven years, but they usually attend for twelve years. The average class size is eighteen students and there are about six computers per classroom. On average, there are about twenty-eight students in a classroom. Students are required to wear uniforms during the nine years of their formal education, from ages 6 to 15, and supply their own lunches and snacks. Students then begin college at age 15. The school year in Costa Rica runs from February to December. <P> 1 The two surveys’ findings vary somewhat in regard to recess time, but both reported average recess time in the range of 24–30 minutes per day. 2 As noted above, the CDC survey reported that elementary students were getting an average of 30.2 minutes of recess each day (SHPPS 2006). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as recently as 2006, 96.8 percent of elementary schools still had regularly scheduled recess in at least one grade, and the average allotted time was 30.2 minutes per day (Lee et al 2007). <P> The average school day in the United States varies from state to state, but most stays require approximately 180 days for the school year to be complete. Each state’s Department of Education determines its own minimum school day length and stipulations for fulfilling the 180 days. The way states add this time up can get complicated, but typically if schools or districts choose to add time to the legal minimum school day, the day would be considered extended. “It was exhausting,” he says of those first two years. But, the school was “able to offer longer class periods, build in restroom breaks and student celebrations, and provide teachers with time for meetings and planning time inside the school day so that we had less out-of-school-time meetings.”. <P> In elementary school and junior high school, an average school day lasts between 8.15 a.m. and 3 p.m. In high school days can run a bit longer, but rarely past 4 p.m. As good as schools in Sweden are they are not that great and have been sliding down the ladder big time for more than 10 years.

amount of caffeine in coke
|
<P> Best Answer: Coke has about 32 mg of caffeine in a 12 oz. can. Tea about the same. Black tea has about the same (depends on how strong it is) Black teas have more caffeine. Green tea has about 15 - 20mg. Not a lot. Coca Cola has 45 mg of caffeine in a 12 ounce serving. Coffee has 65-175 mg per 7 ounce serving, depending on the brewing method. <P> That's roughly the amount of caffeine in four cups of brewed coffee, 10 cans of cola or two energy shot drinks. Although caffeine use may be safe for adults, it's not a good idea for children. And adolescents should limit themselves to no more than 100 mg of caffeine a day. <P> Coca Cola Classic is the world's most popular caffeinated soft drink and it is made by the Coca Cola Company, one of the largest companies in the world. Coca Cola also has some flavor variations with some having higher caffeine amounts. Coca-Cola Classic contains 2.83 mgs of caffeine per fluid ounce (9.58mg/100 ml). <P> However, given that the formula has always remained secret-this may simply be an embellishment. The Diet Coke range actually contains about 32% more caffeine than the standard coke formula. Coca-Cola Blak had the highest amount of caffeine of any coca-cola drink, but has since been discontinued. Coca-Cola Classic contains 2.83 mgs of caffeine per fluid ounce (9.58mg/100 ml). <P> Report Abuse.

what is permafrost
|
<P> Permafrost is any soil or rock that remains frozen—below 32°F—throughout the year. For a soil to be considered permafrost, it must be frozen for at least two consecutive years or longer. Permafrost can be found in cold climates where the mean annual temperature is less than the freezing point of water. Such climates are found near the North and South poles and in some alpine regions. Some soils in areas that experience warmer temperatures thaw for a short time during warmer months. The thawing is restricted to the top layer of soil and a permafrost layer remains frozen several inches below the surface. <P> Pingo soil formations form when the permafrost layer traps a large amount of water in the soil. When the water freezes, it expands and pushes the saturated earth upward into a large mound or pingo. Solifluction is a soil formation process that occurs when thawed soils slide down a slope over the permafrost layer. Some soils in areas that experience warmer temperatures thaw for a short time during warmer months. The thawing is restricted to the top layer of soil and a permafrost layer remains frozen several inches below the surface. <P> Permafrost is soil, rock or sediment that is frozen more than two consecutive years. In areas not overlain by ice, it exists beneath a layer of soil, rock or sediment, which freezes and thaws annually and is called the active layer. Exceptions occur in un-glaciated Siberia and Alaska where the present depth of permafrost is a relic of climatic conditions during glacial ages where winters were up to 11 °C (20 °F) colder than those of today. <P> Full Definition of PERMAFROST. : a permanently frozen layer at variable depth below the surface in frigid regions of a planet (as earth). See permafrost defined for English-language learners. See permafrost defined for kids. ADVERTISEMENT. <P> Noun. 1. permafrost-ground that is permanently frozen. land, soil, ground-material in the top layer of the surface of the earth in which plants can grow (especially with reference to its quality or use); the land had never been plowed; good agricultural soil. Translations. <P> In geology, permafrost or cryotic soil is soil at or below the freezing point of water 0 °C (32 °F) for two or more years. Exceptions occur in un-glaciated Siberia and Alaska where the present depth of permafrost is a relic of climatic conditions during glacial ages where winters were up to 11 °C (20 °F) colder than those of today. <P> Kevin Schaefer is a permafrost scientist at NSIDC. He studies the carbon cycle, or the processes by which the Earth's carbon moves around: from the air into plants, from plants into the ground, and then back into the air (Figure 2). Dr. Schaefer studies the carbon that is frozen deep in Arctic permafrost. <P> Permafrost is perennially frozen ground that remains at or below zero degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) for two or more years and forms in regions where the mean annual temperature is colder than zero degrees Celsius. <P> By definition, permafrost is ground that remains frozen for two or more years. Since frozen soil, including permafrost, comprises a large percentage of substrate materials other than ice, it thaws rather than melts even as any ice content melts. Exceptions occur in un-glaciated Siberia and Alaska where the present depth of permafrost is a relic of climatic conditions during glacial ages where winters were up to 11 °C (20 °F) colder than those of today. <P> One of Alaska’s natural wonders is found underfoot. It is permafrost, ground that remains frozen year after year. Made up of soil and rocks as well as frozen water, permafrost forms when the depth of winter freezing exceeds the depth of summer thawing. Permafrost is thickest in arctic Alaska north of the Brooks Range, but it is found to some extent beneath nearly 85 percent of Alaska. On the arctic coastal plain it extends as much as 2,000 feet below the surface and is found virtually everywhere.

what vessels carry deoxygenated blood
|
<P> All arteries carry oxygenated blood with the exception of the pulmonary artery from the right side of the heart to the lungs, which does not. Yes. Most arterial blood is oxygenated. There are two exceptions to that rule. One is the pulmonary artery which carries deoxygenated blood. Veins do carry deoxygenated (oxygen-poor) blood into the heart. Superior and inferior vena cava carry the oxygen-poor blood to the heart; blood enters into the righ … t atrium. Contraction of the atria forces the blood into the ventricles. <P> The pulmonary arteries-some of the only arteries in the body that carry deoxygenated blood. Pulmonary veins carry freshly oxygenated blood back to the heart. <P> Arteries form part of the circulatory system. They carry blood that is oxygenated after it has been pumped from the heart. Arteries also aid the heart in pumping blood. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the tissues, except for pulmonary arteries, which carry blood to the lungs for oxygenation. (Usually veins carry deoxygenated blood to the heart but the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood.) There are two unique arteries. While most arteries carry oxygenated blood, there are two exceptions to this, the pulmonary and the umbilical arteries. The effective arterial blood volume is that extracellular fluid which fills the arterial system. The circulatory system is vital for sustaining life. <P> In the circulatory system, veins (from the Latin vena) are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart; exceptions are the pulmonary and umbilical veins, both of which carry oxygenated blood to the heart. In contrast to veins, arteries carry blood away from the heart. Veins are less muscular than arteries and are often closer to the skin. The pulmonary veins carry relatively oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. The superior and inferior venae cavae carry relatively deoxygenated blood from the upper and lower systemic circulations, respectively. The portal venous system is a series of veins or venules that directly connect two capillary beds. <P> Key Concept The pulmonary arteries are the only arteries in the body that carry deoxygenated blood. The pulmonary veins are the only veins that carry oxygenated blood. The oxygen saturation of the hemoglobin within the arteries is normally about 95%-I00%. <P> The aorta carries oxygenated blood to the body. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs and it is the only artery to carry deoxygenated blood. There are two veins associated with the heart. The vena cava, or great vein, carries deoxygenated blood back to the heart from the body. <P> Arteries (from Greek ἀρτηρία (artēria) , meaning windpipe, artery) are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. While most arteries carry oxygenated blood, there are two exceptions to this, the pulmonary and the umbilical arteries. The effective arterial blood volume is that extracellular fluid which fills the arterial system. The circulatory system is vital for sustaining life. <P> The arteries are perceived as carrying oxygenated blood to the tissues, while veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart. This is true of the systemic circulation, by far the larger of the two circuits of blood in the body, which transports oxygen from the heart to the tissues of the body. The pulmonary veins carry relatively oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. The superior and inferior venae cavae carry relatively deoxygenated blood from the upper and lower systemic circulations, respectively. The portal venous system is a series of veins or venules that directly connect two capillary beds. <P> Blood passes from the right ventricle to the lungs via the pulmonary artery (the only artery in the body that contains deoxygenated blood veins In the circulatory system … , a vein is a blood vessel that carries blood back toward the heart (as opposed to artery, a blood vessel carrying blood away from the heart). The majority of veins in the body carry low-oxygen blood from the tissues back to the heart; the exceptions being the pulmonary and umbilical veins which both carry oxygenated blood Specifically, the superior and inferior vena cava carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart.

what is a haka
|
<P> The Haka, which is performed by the New Zealand All Blacks rugby team before each match, is an ancestral war dance of the Māori people, traditionally used to intimidate an opponent before battle. It is also performed to honour a distinguished guest. <P> Haka is a traditional dance form of the Māori of New Zealand, which has become familiar worldwide through their rugby team display. It is a posture dance performed by a group, with vigorous movements and stamping of the feet with rhythmically shouted accompaniment. <P> In what follows, you can read about what ‘haka’ actually is and what it means, as well as the many different styles of haka. Also, focussing on Ka mate, the haka performed by the All Blacks there are a few paragraphs on its origin, a translation of the words, and a brief description of how it relates to rugby. Finally there is a bibliography for further reading and links to a couple of related websites. Stamp the feet as hard as you can. Also essential to the art of haka are pukana (dilating of the eyes), whetero (protruding of the tongue performed by men only), ngangahu (similar to pukana, performed by both sexes), and potete (the closing of the eyes at different points in the dance, performed by the women only). <P> A haka is a traditional ancestral war cry, dance or challenge of the Māori people of New Zealand which the New Zealand national rugby union team, the All Blacks, and a number of other New Zealand national teams perform before their international matches. Some non-New Zealand sports teams have also adopted the haka. <P> Prepare yourself for the energy and awe of the haka. Play. The haka is a type of ancient Māori war dance traditionally used on the battlefield, as well as when groups came together in peace. Haka are a fierce display of a tribe's pride, strength and unity. Actions include violent foot-stamping, tongue protrusions and rhythmic body slapping to accompany a loud chant. The haka is a type of ancient Māori war dance traditionally used on the battlefield, as well as when groups came together in peace. Haka are a fierce display of a tribe's pride, strength and unit <P> Haka being performed at the SCC Rugby Sevens. Although the use of haka by the All Blacks rugby union team and the New Zealand rugby league team has made one type of haka familiar, it has led to misconceptions. Haka are not exclusively war dances but were traditionally performed by men. In November 2012, a Maori kapa haka group from Rotorua performed a version of the ' Gangnam Style ' dance mixed with a traditional Maori haka in Seoul, celebrating 50 years of diplomatic relations between South Korea and New Zealand. <P> “The haka is a compo sition played by many instruments.

what does dopamine do
|
<P> Dopamine is a neurotransmitter, a chemical messenger for the nervous system. It is used clinically to raise blood pressure, in the case of shock, to treat depression, and to t … reat certain dopamine deficiency states like Parkinson's disease. Dopamine is a Neurotransmitter as well as a Neurohormone. Its secretion is linked to increased heart rate and blood pressure. As released by the hypothalamus, it acts as an inhibitory hormone which stops the anterior pituitary gland from releasing prolactin <P> SHARE. Dopamine is a famous chemical. It holds a prized position in the annals of popular science as the “reward” drug. Countless articles refer to the latest studies of foods, sex and exercise as boosting dopamine, and, by implication, pleasure. But is this characterization correct? What does dopamine actually do? A key finding is that dopamine is not the “reward” chemical, at least not in the way that the media would have us believe. In the 1990s, a now-classic experiment was carried out by Wolfram Schultz and colleagues. He recorded from brain cells that produce dopamine and deliver it to other brain areas. <P> Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that is produced by the brains of many organisms, including humans. Like many neurotransmitters, it has several different functions. It plays a critical role in the function of the central nervous system, and it is also linked with the brain 's complex system of motivation and reward. Dopamine, a neurotransmitter, is produced in several areas of the brain. Dopamine levels increase when stimulated by certain drugs such as nicotine. Exercise can increase a person's dopamine levels. Low dopamine levels may cause weight gain. <P> L-DOPA, the metabolic precursor of dopamine, does reach the brain and is the most widely used treatment for Parkinson's disease. Dopaminergic stimulants can be addictive in high doses, but some are used at lower doses to treat ADHD. Dopamine itself is used as precursor in the synthesis of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine and the hormone epinephrine. Dopamine is converted into norepinephrine by the enzyme dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH), with O 2 and L-ascorbic acid as cofactors. <P> In the brain, dopamine functions as a neurotransmitter —a chemical released by nerve cells to send signals to other nerve cells. The brain includes several distinct dopamine systems, one of which plays a major role in reward-motivated behavior. Dopamine itself is used as precursor in the synthesis of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine and the hormone epinephrine. Dopamine is converted into norepinephrine by the enzyme dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH), with O 2 and L-ascorbic acid as cofactors. <P> An increase in the firing of these neurons is a sign that more dopamine is being released in the brain. Schultz switched on a light, and then delivered a tasty drop of juice to the animal. Initially, the dopamine cells responded to the juice, consistent with the “reward” theory. A key finding is that dopamine is not the “reward” chemical, at least not in the way that the media would have us believe. In the 1990s, a now-classic experiment was carried out by Wolfram Schultz and colleagues. He recorded from brain cells that produce dopamine and deliver it to other brain areas. <P> Dopamine is an organic chemical of the catecholamine and phenethylamine families that plays several important roles in the human brain and body, as well as elsewhere in biology. Its name derives from its chemical structure: it is an amine formed by removing a carboxyl group from a molecule of L-DOPA. Dopamine itself is used as precursor in the synthesis of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine and the hormone epinephrine. Dopamine is converted into norepinephrine by the enzyme dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH), with O 2 and L-ascorbic acid as cofactors. <P> Confidence votes 360.

what is gsh
|
<P> Glutathione (GSH) is a deceptively simple string of 3 amino acids, glutamine, cysteine and glycine. GSH also has a sulfur molecule which binds with toxins and gives it a distinct aroma. Toxic exposure and oxidative stress can deplete glutathione levels resulting in an array of both chronic and acute conditions. <P> Glutathione (GSH) is an important antioxidant in plants, animals, fungi, and some bacteria and archaea, preventing damage to important cellular components caused by reactive oxygen species such as free radicals, peroxides, lipid peroxides and heavy metals. So, for every GSSG and NADPH, two reduced GSH molecules are gained, which can again act as antioxidants scavenging reactive oxygen species in the cell. In healthy cells and tissue, more than 90% of the total glutathione pool is in the reduced form (GSH) and less than 10% exists in the disulfide form (GSSG). <P> Glutathione exists in both reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) states. In the reduced state, the thiol group of cysteine is able to donate a reducing equivalent (H + + e −) to other unstable molecules, such as reactive oxygen species. So, for every GSSG and NADPH, two reduced GSH molecules are gained, which can again act as antioxidants scavenging reactive oxygen species in the cell. In healthy cells and tissue, more than 90% of the total glutathione pool is in the reduced form (GSH) and less than 10% exists in the disulfide form (GSSG). <P> Glutathione (or GSH) is the body’s own master antioxidant discovered way back in 1889. However, it was only about 30 years ago that the scientists began to understand its functions and discovered how to raise its levels. GSH is produced out of these three precursors in every cell of the human body and performs many important roles, such as: 1 Regulation of cell growth and division. 2 For cells to grow and divide they go through several very complex stages. <P> Glutathione (GSH) is often referred to as the body's master antioxidant. Composted of three amino acids-cysteine, glycine, and glutamate-glutathione can be found in virtually every cell of the human body. As GSH levels rise, they self-limit further GSH synthesis; otherwise, cysteine availability is usually rate-limiting. Fasting, protein-energy malnutrition, or other dietary amino acid deficiencies limit GSH synthesis. <P> A tripeptide of glycine, l-cysteine, and l-glutamate, with l-glutamate having an isopeptide bond with the amino moiety of l-cysteine. Glutathione has a wide variety of roles in a cell; it is the most prevalent non-protein thiol. glutathione. reduced glutathione (GSH), a tripeptide containing glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine, which serves as a reducing agent in many biochemical reactions, being converted to oxidized glutathione (GSSG) in which the cysteine residues of two glutathione molecules are connected by a disulfide bridge. <P> Glutathione is the most powerful and most abundant antioxidant in healthy cells. It’s the body’s workhorse to remove waste from cells and it’s one of the most commonly used medical test markers for health. A compromised person living with stress, toxins or disease, will have low glutathione GSH levels. <P> Glutathione is the master antioxidant and detoxifier of every cell in your body. It is a tripeptide composed of three amino acids-cysteine, glutaminic acid and glycine. Glutathione is the most important antioxidant produced by the body. It prevents cellular damage caused by free radicals and peroxides. Some of its antioxidant functions in the body include: <P> Reduced glutathione (GSH) is a linear tripeptide of L-glutamine, L-cysteine, and glycine. Technically N-L-gamma-glutamyl-cysteinyl glycine or L-glutathione, the molecule has a sulfhydryl (SH) group on the cysteinyl portion, which accounts for its strong electron-donating character. As GSH levels rise, they self-limit further GSH synthesis; otherwise, cysteine availability is usually rate-limiting. Fasting, protein-energy malnutrition, or other dietary amino acid deficiencies limit GSH synthesis. <P> The Quick view... The tri-peptide glutathione or (GSH) is a combination of the amino acids glutamate (glutamic acid), L-cysteine, and glycine. Each and every cell in the body takes these raw ingredients to manufacture GSH. It is a very small protein (made of three amino acids) and is essential for life.

Tisbury is often referred to as a town but it is in fact strictly a village. Town much better describes the rural centre it has become today – a hidden gem. The town is set amongst beautiful rolling chalk downland overlooking the Nadder valley. As with so many towns and villages in England the construction of the railway linking Salisbury to Yeovil in Somerset brought a measure of prosperity to the area. It was then that the village really became a rural town. <P> Steeped in history, Tisbury is the largest village in Wiltshire’s Nadder Valley and has been a settlement for over 2,000 years. Tisbury is an excellent base from which to explore England’s countryside, including the Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Picturesque villages such as Hindon, Dinton, Fonthill Bishop and the Donheads can be explored nearby. <P> Tisbury is now the home of the ferry docks for the island. The town was divided into its current boundaries in 1892. Like the rest of Martha's Vineyard, is a popular summer resort for the rich and famous. As can be seen in the history section below, the town of Tisbury was incorporated within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1671 and remains the legal name of the town to this day. <P> From the western shore of Tisbury to Falmouth, the town is 3-1/3 miles from the Mainland, the closest point on the Vineyard. Most of central Tisbury is low-lying and near sea level,with elevations rising up to 100 feet or so. As can be seen in the history section below, the town of Tisbury was incorporated within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1671 and remains the legal name of the town to this day. <P> Vineyard Haven is the main village/town center of Tisbury.

what is a matrix composite
|
<P> Most composites have strong, stiff fibres in a matrix which is weaker and less stiff. The objective is usually to make a component which is strong and stiff, often with a low density. Commercial material commonly has glass or carbon fibres in matrices based on thermosetting polymers, such as epoxy or polyester resins. Sometimes, thermoplastic polymers may be preferred, since they are mouldable after initial production. There are further classes of composite in which the matrix is a metal or a ceramic. For the most part, these are still in a developmental stage, with problems of high manufacturing costs yet to be overcome. <P> Composite materials, on the other hand, consist of two or more materials combined in such a way that the individual materials are easily distinguishable. A common example of a composite is concrete. It consists of a binder (cement) and a reinforcement (gravel). Adding another reinforcement (rebar) transforms concrete into a three-phase composite. The individual materials that make up composites are called constituents. <P> Fiberglass sheet is a composite since it is made of glass fibers imbedded in a polymer. Composite materials are said to have two phases. The reinforcing phase is the fibers, sheets, or particles that are embedded in the matrix phase. The reinforcing material and the matrix material can be metal, ceramic, or polymer. Typically, reinforcing materials are strong with low densities while the matrix is usually a ductile, or tough, material. <P> Matrix materials are usually some type of plastic, and these composites are often called reinforced plastics. There are other types of matrices, such as metal or ceramic, but plastics are by far the most common. There are also many types of plastics, but a discussion of them is beyond the scope of this week's column. A common example of a composite is concrete. It consists of a binder (cement) and a reinforcement (gravel). Adding another reinforcement (rebar) transforms concrete into a three-phase composite. The individual materials that make up composites are called constituents. <P> For example, carbon fiber are commonly used in aluminium matrix to synthesize composites showing low density and high strength. However, carbon reacts with aluminium to generate a brittle and water-soluble compound Al4C3 on the surface of the fibre. 1 Some tank armors may be made from metal matrix composites, probably steel reinforced with boron nitride, which is a good reinforcement for steel because it is very stiff and it does not dissolve in molten steel. 2 Some automotive disc brakes use MMCs. <P> Most composites have two constituent materials: a binder or matrix, and a reinforcement. The reinforcement is usually much stronger and stiffer than the matrix, and gives the composite its good properties. The matrix holds the reinforcements in an orderly pattern. A common example of a composite is concrete. It consists of a binder (cement) and a reinforcement (gravel). Adding another reinforcement (rebar) transforms concrete into a three-phase composite. The individual materials that make up composites are called constituents. <P> A metal matrix composite (MMC) is composite material with at least two constituent parts, one being a metal necessarily, the other material may be a different metal or another material, such as a ceramic or organic compound. 1 Some tank armors may be made from metal matrix composites, probably steel reinforced with boron nitride, which is a good reinforcement for steel because it is very stiff and it does not dissolve in molten steel. 2 Some automotive disc brakes use MMCs. <P> Composite fabrication usually involves wetting, mixing or saturating the reinforcement with the matrix, and then causing the matrix to bind together (with heat or a chemical reaction) into a rigid structure. Tension failures can be net section failures of the part or degradation of the composite at a microscopic scale where one or more of the layers in the composite fail in tension of the matrix or failure of the bond between the matrix and fibers. <P> Fibers and matrix are usually (but not always) made from different types of materials. The fibers are typically glass, carbon, silicon carbide, or asbestos, while the matrix is usually plastic, metal, or a ceramic material (though materials such as concrete may also be used). Photo: A simple model of a composite. Fix two or more sheets of material together and you get a laminate, which is essentially just a material made up of layers. Since the layers are usually different materials, laminates are examples of composites, though the materials aren't integrated together in the same way as with other (matrix) composites.

how long are refrigerated eggs good for?
|
<P> 1 Eggs can remain edible for even longer than a month, but freshness (egg yolk that sits firm and high, and a thick viscous egg white) will be noticeably less after two weeks. 2 If eggs start out as Grade AA, they remain AA for only two weeks if properly refrigerated. 3 After that, they'll be Grade A for another 2 weeks. Eggs … can remain edible for even longer than one month, but freshness (egg yolk that sits firm and high, and a thick viscous egg white) will be noticeably less after two weeks. There is an expiration date on the carton. If in doubt, put the egg in water. <P> Hard boiled eggs must be refrigerated. You can extend the answer to how long do hard boiled eggs last by storing them in your fridge (refrigerator) immediately after preparation or use. Once prepared, hard boiled eggs should be stored in a tightly closed container in the fridge to keep out moisture and other contaminants. <P> Expert answer: We tell consumers to look to the egg carton sell-by dates to judge freshness. The USDA says that the date can be no further ahead than 30 days after the packing date. Your store can choose any day within that 30 days to date the eggs. If you don't find a date on the carton, using the eggs within three weeks of the carton date should allow them to be used within optimum quality, meaning the yolk will be high and upstanding, and the white will be tall and firm. It's important to get tips on how to protect yourself and your family from food-related illnesses. It's sometimes easy to determine when food in your refrigerator has gone bad. All you usually have to do is check for mold, or for a foul odor. But eggs can be a little harder to determin <P> No Follow. Refrigerate leftover hard-cooked eggs in the shell within two hours of cooking them and they should keep well for over one to one and a half weeks. It's best to place them in a container or plastic bag so they don't absorb refrigerator smells and flavors <P> It can even keep eggs fresh for awhile without any refrigeration and extend refrigeration by a week at least. 1 Eggs can remain edible for even longer than a month, but freshness (egg yolk that sits firm and high, and a thick viscous egg white) will be noticeably less after two weeks. After that, they'll be Grade A for another 2 weeks. Eggs … can remain edible for even longer than one month, but freshness (egg yolk that sits firm and high, and a thick viscous egg white) will be noticeably less after two weeks. There is an expiration date on the carton. If in doubt, put the egg in water. <P> To properly answer the question of how long do eggs last, how long are eggs good for, or the shelf life of eggs, a variety of factors must be examined such as the sell by date and how the eggs have been stored. So, if you want to freeze your eggs to extend their shelf life, it is best to crack the eggs into a freezer safe container and gently blend in 1/2 teaspoon of salt before freezing. The eggs can then be thawed and used, but these eggs will not rise much if later used in baked goods. <P> 1 Eggs out of the shell will usually stay good for 2 to 4 days in the fridge and one year in the freezer; egg yolks and egg whites may also be frozen separately and used later for cooking or baking purposes. <P> Once refrigerated, they must continue to stay in the fridge until use, but will stay good up to 6 months (or more) only who keeps eggs that long anyway. Oh, yeah, commercial egg producers. Store bought eggs can be an average of 3 weeks to 3 months old by the time you buy them. Fresh eggs are very hardy. <P> Eggs that you buy from the store will not stay fresh for long without refrigeration. Eggs that come right from the chicken can kept at room temperature for weeks. Store bo … ught eggs should be refrigerated within a few hours of buying them just to be safe. After that, they'll be Grade A for another 2 weeks. Eggs … can remain edible for even longer than one month, but freshness (egg yolk that sits firm and high, and a thick viscous egg white) will be noticeably less after two weeks. There is an expiration date on the carton. If in doubt, put the egg in water.

possessive adjective examples
|
<P> Notes: A possessive adjective is similar or identical to a possessive pronoun; however, it is used as an adjective and modifies a noun or a noun phrase. For example: 1 I can't complete my assignment because I don't have the textbook. * 2 In this sentence, the possessive adjective my modifies the noun assignment. 1 * Here the possessive adjective your is used to modify the noun phrase phone number. 2 The cat chased its ball down the stairs and into the backyard. * 3 In this sentence, the possessive adjective its modifies ball. <P> Possessive adjectives are often confused with possessive pronouns. Examples: 1 Your bike is blue. ( 2 your is an adjective which modifies bike). 3 Mine is yellow. ( 4 mine is a pronoun which functions as the subject of the verb is). 1. Possessive adjectives are different from possessive pronouns. This is your (possessive adjective) book and this is mine (possessive pronoun). 2. its, their are possessive adjectives. Its color is beautiful. Their car is in their garage. <P> Possessive Adjectives – Definition and Examples. Also called possessive determiners, possessive adjectives refer to words which modify a noun by showing a form of possession or a sense of belonging to a particular person or thing. The 1 st person possessive adjectives “my” and “our” can be used for both male and female owners. However, the possessive adjective “my” is for singular owners, while the possessive adjective “our” is for plural ones. Example: 1 We sold our dune buggy yesterday. <P> As mentioned earlier, possessive adjectives are the words used to show a form of possession/ ownership or are used to express a close relationship with someone or something. The 1 st person possessive adjectives “my” and “our” can be used for both male and female owners. However, the possessive adjective “my” is for singular owners, while the possessive adjective “our” is for plural ones. Example: 1 We sold our dune buggy yesterday. <P> Remember, possessive pronouns are used to replace the noun. Possessive adjectives are used to describe the noun. Notice that some forms of the possessive adjective and possessive pronoun are the same (his, its). So, you have to look at how they are used in the sentence. It can also be used to replace a noun. Here is a list of the possessive pronouns : mine    yours    his    hers    its. ours theirs. A possessive adjective is an adjective that is used to show ownership. It comes before a noun in the sentence and lets us know to whom the noun belongs. <P> Do not confuse these possessive adjectives with possessive pronouns. A possessive pronoun does show ownership, but it does not come before a noun or in a noun phrase. It stands alone. It can also be used to replace a noun. Here is a list of the possessive pronouns : mine    yours    his    hers    its. ours theirs. A possessive adjective is an adjective that is used to show ownership. It comes before a noun in the sentence and lets us know to whom the noun belongs. <P> Possessive adjectives are used to indicate who (or what) owns something. Here are some possessive adjectives in sentences: A pronoun is a word that replaces a noun. As possessive adjectives replace nouns, they are classified as pronouns. For this reason, they are also called possessive pronouns. The term possessive pronoun covers all the pronouns that demonstrate ownership. Its has nothing to do with it's, which is a contraction of it is or it has. Read more about its and it's. YOU'RE IS NOT A POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVE. There is no apostrophe in the possessive adjective your. <P> Subject Pronouns I you he she it we you they Possessive Adjectives my your his her its our your their Examples: Why didn't you clean your room? (your modifies the noun room) Mary doesn't like her dress. (her modifies the noun dress) The chameleon can change its color. 1. Possessive adjectives are different from possessive pronouns. This is your (possessive adjective) book and this is mine (possessive pronoun). 2. its, their are possessive adjectives. Its color is beautiful. Their car is in their garage.

what is accommodation space
|
<P> Space Accommodations. Initially, space tourism will offer meager accommodations at best. For instance, if the International Space Station is used as a tourist attraction, guests won't find the posh surroundings of a hotel room on Earth. It has been designed for conducting research, not entertainment. <P> The term accommodation space means any space in a Vessel that is open to the passengers and crew. Accommodation space can be any public space such as a hall, dining room, mess room, lounge, corridor, lavatory, cabin, office, hospital, cinema, game room and pantry that contains no cooking appliances. <P> Accommodation Space. Accommodation space is the area available for sediment to be deposited, usually the space between the sedimentary surface and sea level. This concept is very important because it provides the intellectual context for connecting depositional environments to relative sea level change. <P> The accommodation space not filled with water is filled with sediment. The rates of change of tectonic subsidence, eustatic sea level, sediment thickness and water depth are linked to one another through the accommodation space equation: <P> The accommodation space equation represents a simple volume balance, with the terms on the left controlling the amount of space that can be occupied by sediments or water and the terms on the right describing how much water or sediment fills the accommodation space. As written, the equation is an approximation.

what organ controls the two types of specific immune functions?
|
<P> The immune and lymphatic systems are two closely related organ systems that share several organs and physiological functions. The immune system is our body’s defense system against infectious pathogenic viruses, bacteria, and fungi as well as parasitic animals and protists. <P> Lymphocytes: These small white blood cells play a large role in defending the body against disease, according to the Mayo Clinic. The two types of lymphocytes are B-cells, which make antibodies that attack bacteria and toxins, and T-cells, which help destroy infected or cancerous cells. Killer T-cells are a subgroup of T-cells that kill cells that are infected with viruses and other pathogens or are otherwise damaged. Helper T-cells help determine which immune responses the body makes to a particular pathogen. Thymus: This small organ is where T-cells mature. <P> These lymphocytes are called T lymphocytes, or T cells (for thymus-derived cells). These two types of lymphocytes --- cells and T cells --- play different roles in the immune response, though they may act together and influence one another's functions. The part of the immune response that involves B cells is often called humoral immunity because it takes place in the body fluids <P> Endocrine System. The endocrine system is made up of a group of glands that produce the body's long-distance messengers, or hormones. Hormones are chemicals that control body functions, such as metabolism, growth, and sexual development. There are three types of response systems in the immune system: the anatomic response, the inflammatory response, and the immune response. 1 The anatomic response physically prevents threatening substances from entering your body. 2 Examples of the anatomic system include the mucous membranes and the skin. <P> The immune system is a system of many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease. To function properly, an immune system must detect a wide variety of agents, known as pathogens, from viruses to parasitic worms, and distinguish them from the organism's own healthy tissue. B cells and T cells are the major types of lymphocytes and are derived from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. B cells are involved in the humoral immune response, whereas T cells are involved in cell-mediated immune response. Both B cells and T cells carry receptor molecules that recognize specific targets. <P> Specific immunity is a complement to the function of phagocytes and other elements of the innate immune system. In contrast to innate immunity, specific immunity allows for a targeted response against a specific pathogen. Only vertebrates have specific immune responses. Two types of white blood cells called lymphocytes are vital to the specific immune response. Lymphocytes are produced in the bone marrow, and mature into one of several subtypes. The two most common are T cells and B cells. An antigen is a foreign material that triggers a response from T and B cells. The human immune system has two levels of immunity: specific and non-specific immunity. Through non-specific immunity, also called innate immunity, the human body protects itself against foreign material that is perceived to be harmful. <P> Antigens are chemicals on the surface of a cell. All cells have these. The immune system checks cells and identifies them as self or non-self. Antibodies are proteins produced by certain lymphocytes in response to a specific antigen. Bone marrow contains tissue that produces lymphocytes. B-lymphocytes (B-cells) mature in the bone marrow. T-lymphocytes (T-cells) mature in the thymus gland. Other blood cells such as monocytes and leukocytes are produced <P> How lymphocytes are made. Some lymphocytes are processed in the bone marrow and then migrate to other areas of the body --- specifically the lymphoid organs (see Lymphatic System). These lymphocytes are called B lymphocytes, or B cells (for bone-marrow-derived cells). These two types of lymphocytes --- cells and T cells --- play different roles in the immune response, though they may act together and influence one another's functions. <P> Lymphocytes. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell. There are two types of lymphocytes of the acquired immune system: T cells and B cells. There is a third type of lymphocyte known as natural killer (NK) cells, but these are a part of the innate immune system. <P> The adaptive immune system is one of the two main immunity strategies found in vertebrates (the other being the innate immune system). Adaptive immunity creates immunological memory after an initial response to a specific pathogen, leads to an enhanced response to subsequent encounters with that pathogen.

what causes butterfly disease
|
<P> Butterflies and moths can do very well with traces of disease. When stress occurs, however, the disease often takes over and causes major health problems and often death. From watching the caterpillar or adult we can rarely tell if they have a disease unless it is active and causing problems. Mold and mildew in the container can cause bacteria problems in your caterpillars. EGG CONTAMINATION. If a female butterfly is diseased, often disease particles (protozoan spore or virus particle) will be either on or in the egg. Remember, the first thing the caterpillar eats is its eggshell. When the caterpillar eats the contaminated eggshell, it will contract the disease. If the egg has the disease on the surface, there is a good chance of washing it off with a bleach solution. Simply soak the eggs in a 98% water/2% bleach solution for thirty second <P> When lupus begins, it can look a lot like rheumatoid arthritis, which causes joint pain and swelling, or fibromyalgia, which causes fatigue and pain. One aspect that sets lupus apart is the combination of skin rashes with joint pain and fatigue. Symptoms may be limited to the skin, but more often lupus also causes internal problems such as joint pain. In severe cases, it can damage the heart, kidneys, and other vital organs. Although there's no cure, there are treatments that can minimize the damage. <P> Known more formally as a malar rash, a butterfly rash is most commonly associated with the autoimmune disease lupus, though it can also be present in other conditions and particularly other autoimmune conditions. <P> A tell-tale sign of lupus is a butterfly-shaped rash across the cheeks and bridge of the nose. Other common skin problems include sensitivity to the sun with flaky, red spots or a scaly, purple rash on various parts of the body, including the face, neck, and arms. Some people also develop mouth sores. Symptoms may be limited to the skin, but more often lupus also causes internal problems such as joint pain. In severe cases, it can damage the heart, kidneys, and other vital organs. Although there's no cure, there are treatments that can minimize the damage. <P> Causes of Butterfly rash listed in Disease Database: Other medical conditions listed in the Disease Database as possible causes of Butterfly rash as a symptom include: 1 C2 deficiency, hereditary. 2 C4 deficiency, hereditary. 3 Chlorpromazine. 4 Discoid lupus erythematosus. 5 Ethotoin. 6 Granulosis rubra nasi. 7 Hydralazine. 8 Isoniazid. 9 Levomepromazine. <P> Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is an inherited variant affecting the skin and other organs. Butterfly children is the term given to those born with the disease, as their skin is seen to be as delicate and fragile as a butterfly's wings. Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is caused by genetic defects (or mutations) within the human COL7A1 gene encoding the protein type VII collagen (collagen VII). <P> Lupus is a widespread and chronic (lifelong) autoimmune disease that, for unknown reasons, causes the immune system to attack the body’s own tissue and organs, including the joints, kidneys, heart, lungs, brain, blood, or skin. 1 The lupus butterfly rash presents itself in around 40% of lupus sufferers*. 2 Bloom Syndrome: This is a kind of syndrome that causes abnormalities in the pattern of chromosomal arrangement in a person. 3 One of its effects in the development of rashes on the epidermis including butterfly or malar rash. <P> A butterfly rash is a reddish rash on the face that spreads over the bridge of the nose and across the cheeks, making the shape of a butterfly. A butterfly rash, also called a malar rash or flush, is most commonly associated with systemic lupus erythematosus, or lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease. About 50% of people with lupus have a butterfly rash (Source: PubMed Health). Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that can have a serious and widespread effect on the body, including the skin, joints, muscles, and other organs. Butterfly rash and other symptoms of lupus are the result of tissue inflammation throughout various parts of the body

when can you return to work after bariatric surgery
|
<P> Your life will change after gastric sleeve surgery. As you consider your post-operative life and the potential benefits of weight loss, improved health, and an improved quality of life, it is also necessary to consider the diet, exercise, and behavioral changes that are essential for long-term success. <P> Patients can usually drive within two weeks after surgery and can return to normal activities within six to eight weeks. These times may vary, depending on the type of surgery, your general health and the type of activities you performed before surgery. To manage the effects of morbid obesity and bariatric surgery, your post-weight loss surgery care plan may involve several different types of health care professionals, who will work together to help ensure your overall health, manage your food addiction and provide a smooth transition to new day-to-day activities. <P> One of the most frequently asked questions regarding bariatric surgery is, “how long before I can get back to my normal routine.” We know that it is important to take time for our health, but the unfortunate truth is that we need to know exactly how long it will take to recover so that we can return to work. The three most popular bariatric surgeries include open gastric bypass, laparoscopic gastric bypass, and lap band surgery. On the graph above the “return to normal activity” bar is the time it took most people to return to work. If your job requires more physical activity you may have to wait a little longer. <P> Going Back to Work. The time it takes to recover and go back to work can vary based on your physical condition and the type of work that you do, must most gastric sleeve patients are able to return to work about two weeks after surgery. As you consider your post-operative life and the potential benefits of weight loss, improved health, and an improved quality of life, it is also necessary to consider the diet, exercise, and behavioral changes that are essential for long-term success. <P> Overall, when it comes to returning back to work after bariatric surgery, it can take anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks. If you are looking for the shortest turnaround time, lap band surgery may be a good fit for you. It is important to talk to a doctor to see which surgery is right for you and your situation. The three most popular bariatric surgeries include open gastric bypass, laparoscopic gastric bypass, and lap band surgery. On the graph above the “return to normal activity” bar is the time it took most people to return to work. If your job requires more physical activity you may have to wait a little longer. <P> And your recovery can be as little as a few days. For gastric bypass surgery, most patients can proceed with a regular activities after 6 weeks. If you work in a low-impact office, you may be able to go back to work after 3 weeks. If you are a construction worker, you may be able to go back after 6 weeks. <P> Going Back to Work After Bariatric Surgery. Your ability to resume pre-surgery levels of activity will vary according to your physical condition, the nature of the activity and the type of weight loss surgery you had. Most patients return to work and are able to exercise within one to three weeks after their laparoscopic gastric bypass. When bariatric surgery (eg. gastric bypass) leads to dramatic weight loss, excessive amounts of skin can accumulate and hang in various areas, including face, neck, breasts, upper and lower abdomen, flanks, armpit, back, buttocks, arms, forearms, thighs, legs, and calves. <P> Bariatric surgery is not a quick fix. It's an ongoing journey toward weight loss through lifestyle changes. After surgery, the difference in your body makes it physically easier to adjust your eating and lifestyle habits. Fortunately, you will not have to go through the process alone. When bariatric surgery (eg. gastric bypass) leads to dramatic weight loss, excessive amounts of skin can accumulate and hang in various areas, including face, neck, breasts, upper and lower abdomen, flanks, armpit, back, buttocks, arms, forearms, thighs, legs, and calves.

what is metadata information
|
<P> About metadata. Simply put, metadata is data about data. It is descriptive information about a particular data set, object, or resource, including how it is formatted, and when and by whom it was collected. Although metadata most commonly refers to web resources, it can be about either physical or electronic resources. The underlying concepts of metadata have been in use for as long as collections of information have been organized. For example, the information structure for materials in library card catalogs is a type of metadata that has served as a collection management and resource discovery tool for decades. <P> 1 Descriptive Metadata: Metadata that describes the intellectual content of a resource and used for the indexing, discovery and identification of a digital resource. 2 Administrative Metadata: Metadata that includes management information about the digital resource, such as ownership and rights management. Metadata, usually defined as data about data, is used to describe an object (digital or otherwise), its relationships with other objects, and how the object has been and should be treated over time. <P> Metadata was traditionally in the card catalogs of libraries. As information has become increasingly digital, metadata is also used to describe digital data using metadata standards specific to a particular discipline. The main purpose of metadata is to facilitate in the discovery of relevant information, more often classified as resource discovery. Metadata also helps organize electronic resources, provide digital identification, and helps support archiving and preservation of the resource. <P> Meta is a prefix that in most information technology usages means an underlying definition or description.. Metadata summarizes basic information about data, which can make finding and working with particular instances of data easier. For example, author, date created and date modified and file size are examples of very basic document metadata. Having the abilty to filter through that metadata makes it much easier for someone to locate a specific document. In addition to document files, metadata is used for images, videos, spreadsheets and web pages. Metadata can be created manually, or by automated information processing. Manual creation tends to be more accurate, allowing the user to input any information they feel is relevant or needed to help describe the file. <P> Metadata is data about data. Two types of metadata exist: structural metadata and descriptive metadata. Structural metadata is data about the containers of data. Descriptive metadata uses individual instances of application data or the data content. The main purpose of metadata is to facilitate in the discovery of relevant information, more often classified as resource discovery. Metadata also helps organize electronic resources, provide digital identification, and helps support archiving and preservation of the resource. <P> Metadata is a set of data that describes and gives information about other data. Photo metadata allows information to be transported with an image file, in a way that can be understood by other software, hardware, and end users, regardless of the format. Data and information is entered into the image file by users, or by automated capture from cameras or scanners <P> Metadata consist of information that characterizes data. Metadata are used to provide documentation for data products. In essence, metadata answer who, what, when, where, why, and how about every facet of the data that are being documented. Normally, you will create a single disk file for each metadata record, that is, one disk file describes one data set. You then use some tool to enter information into this disk file so that the metadata conform to the standard. Specifically, 1 Assemble information about th <P> Metadata is generally categorized into four or five groupings based on the information the metadata captures, as described below: 1 Descriptive Metadata: Metadata that describes the intellectual content of a resource and used for the indexing, discovery and identification of a digital resource. Metadata, usually defined as data about data, is used to describe an object (digital or otherwise), its relationships with other objects, and how the object has been and should be treated over time. <P> Definition. Data that serves to provide context or additional information about other data. For example, information about the title, subject, author, typeface, enhancements, and size of the data file of a document constitute metadata about that document.
