print speed is typically measured in ____
|
<P> Any speed is measured in units of distance over units of time, such as miles per hour, kilometers per minute, Angstroms per microsecond, absent a need for a specific dimension … according to how the information is to be used (e.g., furlongs per day, knots). The speed of laser printers measured in two ways LPM (Lines per minute) PPM (Pages per minute) Different laser printers have different speeds Check t … he packing box or user manual of your printer to see its speed. <P> Any sort of transfer of the Internet is measured in bits per second. Generally modems or other devices will round to the highest unit they can. Most devices today can measure … their transfer speed in megabits per seconds (Mb/s). Older devices, and even slower devices today are measured in kilobits per second (Kb/s). Another thing to keep in mind these are bits, not bytes, a byte is 8 bits. <P> Printer speed is usually measured in one of three ways, with the general rule being the quicker the print, the greater the cost. Characters per second is the first way in which speed can be measured, i.e. by calculating how many letters, number and spaces it can print in a second. Next, lines per minute (or LPM) is a prevalent measurement of speed, calculating accordingly the number of lines printed each minute. Alongside that, the third way in which printer speed can be measured is in pages per minute, or PPM. <P> Clock speed is a measure of how quickly a computer completes basic computations and operations. It is measured as a frequency in hertz (Hz), and most commonly refers to the speed of the computer's Central Processing Unit (CPU). While computer developers and users can refer to this term regarding CPU performance, this has fallen out of favor as CPUs have become more complex. There is a small quartz crystal inside of a CPU that vibrates at a particular oscillation or frequency. This frequency sets the speed of processes in the computer and is usually very high; they are typically measured in megahertz (MHz) and gigahertz (GHz). <P> ISO ppm is based on the international standard for measuring print speed. Completed in March 2009, this standard was developed by technical experts and representatives from leading printer manufacturers, including Canon, Epson, HP, Kodak and Lexmark. It measures the out-of-the-box (default) speed, and is indicative of real-world print speeds you should expect at home. Much like MPG ratings on new cars, ISO ppm allows you to make an apples-to-apples comparison between printers and all-in-ones and different models from different manufacturers. <P> Best Answer: It really depends on the printer type: Inkjet, Laser, Dye Sublimation are usually listed how many pages they can print per minute (i.e. 24 pages per minute or ppm). Dot Matrix printers are rated in how many characters per second they can print (i.e 80 characters per minute or cpm). Thermal printers are rated in how many Inches per Second of media they can produce (i.e. 8 inches per second or ips). Line printers are rated in how many lines of print per minute they can print (i.e. 1400 Lines per Minute or LPM). Source(s): Denver Al · 4 years ago. <P> The speed of a dot-matrix printer is measured by the number of ____ it can print. characters per second. The speed of most _____________ printers ranges from 375 to 1100 characters per second. <P> Furthermore, a printer's maximum PPM speed is measured using basic text pages, with no graphics, lines, or other objects. Therefore, if you have a text document that includes a picture, the page could take several times longer to print than a plain text document. This is because manufacturers measure the maximum PPM in the fastest printing mode, a.k.a. economy mode, which is also the lowest quality. When printing in regular mode, the speed may be twice as slow. When printing in fine or high-quality mode, the speed will likely be reduced even further. <P> Stands for Pages Per Minute.. PPM is used to measure the printing speed of both inkjet and laser printers. Most printers include a PPM rating for both black and color documents. These speed measurements are typically listed in the printer's technical specifications. This is because manufacturers measure the maximum PPM in the fastest printing mode, a.k.a. economy mode, which is also the lowest quality. When printing in regular mode, the speed may be twice as slow. When printing in fine or high-quality mode, the speed will likely be reduced even further.

You have babies that began pulling up earlier than you thought he or she would, but refuse to take that first real step until they are 14 months old. <P> My eldest son spoke his first word when he was 5 months. He started walking by 14 months of age. I was told that it was average for a child to start walken around 12 months of age. Generally, you can exect a baby to at least try walking between 9 and 12 months (some earlier some later), and they usually start babbling long before that. The general rule of thumb is that each child has his/her own developmental path. <P> Confidence votes 19.3K. The average age would be somewhere around 12 months. But average for babies across the world has nothing to do with it. What matters is what is average for your baby. You have babies that are pulling up as early as 5 months and walking as early as 7 months, or even earlier. On average, a healthy child will begin to take its first steps between the ages of 10-15 months. Yes, males do tend to walk at a later age than females. <P> That's an average age to start walking. Half of all kids are slower than average-that's what average MEANS. My two perfectly normal kids didn't walk until 18 months. It might take your friend's daughter another 6 months yet before she should worry about it. My oldest son started walking at 8 months, he was fine. My youngest son didn't start until he was 18 months, he was also fine. If the baby is standing and otherwise developing fine then don't worry. She will walk when she is ready. <P> Red flag: If your child isn't toddling by 14 or 15 months, bring it up with her doctor. This is still within the normal range of development, but now's a good time to check for anything that may be delaying the milestone. 16 to 18 months.

Don't fret if your child is simply taking her time. But if your child doesn't stand with support at 12 months, can't walk at 18 months, or isn't able to walk steadily at the age of 2 years, bring it up with her doctor. Most babies take their first steps sometime between 9 and 12 months and are walking well by the time they're 14 or 15 months old. Don't worry if your child takes a little longer, though. Some perfectly normal children don't walk until they're 16 or 17 months old <P> While the average age to start walking is between 12 and 13 months, there is a very broad range of 'normal'. Some babies are up and running at nine months old, while others are still contentedly moving around on all fours or cruising the furniture at 18 months. <P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: depends on the child, since all children are different there are no average time frames, some as early as 7-8 months others not until a year or later. If your child is not walking or attempting to walk by a year you may want to talk to your childs doctor. It depends on the child. Small, physically strong children may start walking around 9 months and never stop. About a year is average. Babies that were premature are usually slower. Babies that are heavier are often slower.

cost to have carpet installed
|
<P> You still need … a pad and generally need professional installation so the full price would be roughly near $300. If you have already purchased your new carpet and are simply looking for installation costs, plan on spending approximately $5 to $10 per square yard. Measure the area of the space to be covered. Multiply by the cost of the unit area of the carpet. A typical economy carpet at Lowe's is about $2.25 per square foot including p … ad, plus $97 for installation of any number of rooms. A pretty nice carpet runs about double-around $4.50 per square foot. <P> The cost of the actual carpet fluctuates with quality. The average cost of builder’s grade carpet is $9 per yard and it typically lasts three to five years. Medium grade carpet costs $25 per yard and lasts 12 to 15 years. Luxury carpet can average $45 per yard or more <P> Carpet pad cost: $0.30 to $0.60 sq/ft. Carpet installation cost: $0.50 sq/ft. For budgeting purposes, adding $1.00 sq/ft. for padding and installation to the carpet cost gives a good estimate. Captain’s parting words: There’s no exact answer for how much carpet costs. Nevertheless, it’s important to have an idea of what you should be paying. Step 2: Determining the cost of the carpet. Carpet prices range anywhere from $0.50 to over $10 per square foot. Most homes will want a carpet that is between $2-$4 per square foot, but this is by no means a rule. <P> Labor. Labor costs are one of the most flexible aspects of carpet installation and vary depending on which installer you talk to. As of this writing, expect to pay between $9 to $12 per square yard of carpet installation for a competitive, average installer. Luxury carpets can cost three times that. On top of that, an installer may also charge a carpet removal fee for using their vehicle to transport things to the landfill. Typically, these costs range from $2 to $4 per yard as of 2013. If there are difficult materials to remove, such as tile and hardwood, labor costs go up. <P> 1 Selecting the carpet-carpeting can cost as little as $2 per square foot, or as high as $100 per square yard, but the average carpet and pad will cost between $30 and $40 per square yard-for a total of around $995 for the carpeting alone. ColorYourCarpet.com indicates that there is no such thing as free installation and goes on to illustrate the many additional costs that can be unexpectedly tacked on to a free or fixed-rate install. They indicate that most residential installations will require from $3 to $6 per yard strictly for labor. <P> Material Costs. As of 2013, carpet costs range depending on the quality you desire, with a low-end carpet ranging from $2 to $3 on average per square foot. Carpet is actually sold by the yard, but most shops advertise in square feet to avoid customer confusion. On top of that, an installer may also charge a carpet removal fee for using their vehicle to transport things to the landfill. Typically, these costs range from $2 to $4 per yard as of 2013. If there are difficult materials to remove, such as tile and hardwood, labor costs go up. <P> 1 Prices range from $2 a square foot for the most inexpensive carpeting, including some self-adhesive carpet tiles, to as much as $100 a square yard for high-end or custom project. 2 Decent carpeting and padding can usually be installed for $19-$38 a square yard, or $300-$600 for a 12x12-foot room.

<P> Plants. Animals. Climate. Grasslands. The Steppe biome is a dry, cold, grassland that is found in all of the continents except Australia and Antarctica. It is mostly found in the USA, Mongolia, Siberia, Tibet and China. There isn't much humidity in the air because Steppe is located away from the ocean and close to mountain barriers. <P> (Sources (FAO). The tropical steppe climate is a transitional climate between the tropical wet and tropical dry climates. The controlling factors of the climate are similar to that of the tropical dry climate, though temperatures are cooler and annual precipitation is higher. <P> The Steppe Biome is a dry, cold, grassland that is found in all of the continents except Australia and Antarctica. It is mostly found in the USA, Mongolia, Siberia, Tibet and China. There isn't much humidity in the air because Steppe is located away from the ocean and close to mountain barriers. <P> The climate of the tropical steppe is a direct result of its interior continental location and proximity to the subtropical high. The tropical steppe is not as dry as the tropical desert climate as it lies closer to a source of moisture. If on the equatorward side of the desert it is the ITCZ, or the subpolar low and midlatitude cyclones if it is located poleward side. <P> A steppe climate is found in the middle of continents and in the lee of high mountains. The mountains block moist air from oceans or tropical climates from reaching the steppe. There is not enough precipitation for trees to grow except by rivers.

what type of goat are often kept as pets
|
<P> Goats are herd animals, so should not be kept as solitary animals. A pair (or more) of goats will make a good addition to the right family. A decent amount of space (yard/pasture) will be necessary, depending on the breed and number of goats, so they are best suited for rural areas on farms or acreages. 1 Keeping Goats as Pets by Gary Pfalzbot-an excellent description of what to expect if you decide on a pet goat. 2 Pet Goats by Cleon V. Kimberling, D.V.M-a good summary of the characteristics and needs of goats, from basic care and feeding to health care. <P> Pegasus Valley Pygmy Goats as PetsDue to their small size, pygmy goats are often kept as pets rather than for meat or milk production. There are many reasons why pygmies make good pets:1. CLEANLINESS: Because their diet contains no meat, goat “droppings” do not have the unpleasant odor that other pets’ manure has. Goat droppings are small pellets that can easily be raked or swept and disposed of or used as fertilizer for your garden or flower box. SPACE REQUIREMENTS: A single pygmy goat kept as a pet needs relatively little space. A nice backyard is more than sufficient for a little goat. Goats are browsers rather than grazers and do not decimate your lawn; they prefer to pick the tasty clover, dandelions or broadleaf weeds and let the nice green grass grow. <P> If possible it is always best to visit the breeder so you can see in what sort of conditions their goats are kept. Most importantly, you will want to think about whether you can meet the needs of a goat and whether goats will meet your expectations as a pet a goat before committing to goats as pets. 1 Keeping Goats as Pets by Gary Pfalzbot-an excellent description of what to expect if you decide on a pet goat. 2 Pet Goats by Cleon V. Kimberling, D.V.M-a good summary of the characteristics and needs of goats, from basic care and feeding to health care. <P> Goats as pets. Always contact a vet if you are concerned about the health and welfare of your goats. Owning goats is a big commitment and can be very time-consuming and expensive. Before getting any goats it’s important you consider if you have the time, resources, commitment, knowledge and facilities to care for them. 1 Breeding of goats should only be attempted by experienced owners. 2 If bred, goats will often produce twins, triplets or even quads. 3 Owners must take responsibility for the welfare of the offspring, including organising the humane and legal euthanasia of any kids that cannot be kept or rehomed. <P> Alpines and LaManchas both produce fairly rich milk, Toggenburgs produce thinner milk, and Nigerian Pygmy goats produce small quantities of creamy milk. Angora goats can be raised for their mohair, Cashmere goats for their luxurious fiber, and Pygmy and dwarf goats are often kept as pets. Boer, Spanish and Kiko goats are meat breeds. For details on choosing a goat breed, see “Get Your Goat” in the November/December 2008 Grit (www.Grit.com/Animals/Get-Your-Goat.aspx). Treating the goats as pets is made fun with a goat jungle gym. Raising goats can be fun, rewarding and frustrating – all at the same time. My first goat, Zygota, was a hellion. Milking was a battle where she performed a flamenco dance, often stomping her foot (triumphantly, it seemed) in the milk pail. <P> 1 Wethers, or neutered male goats, are typically cheaper, often sold for around $100. 2 Bucks, unneutered males, are next in price, typically between $150 and $250. 3 Does, or female goats, range from $250 to $300. 4 Wethers or does make the easiest pets. <P> If you are looking for the kind of pet that you can housetrain or litterbox train, well, from my experience, a goat won't be that kind of pet as well. A goat as a pet primarily means that you are willing to let it be the type of animal it is. An hour later they are back at it again. So to have an outdoor pet of this type, you must be willing and able to provide the proper food and nutrition at all times for your goat just as you would any other pet. And the water is important as well. Never deprive a goat of water. <P> The pygmy goat in this country is kept as a pet and not as a utility animal. It is the ideal pet for those who want to keep goats but do not want the bother of milking every day. <P> This is a list of goat breeds. There are many recognized breeds of domestic goat (Capra aegagrus hircus) . Goat breeds (especially dairy goats) are some of the oldest defined animal breeds for which breed standards and production records have been kept. <P> Castrated males are wethers. Goat meat from younger animals is called kid or cabrito (Spanish), and from older animals is simply known as goat or sometimes called chevon (French), or in some areas mutton (which more often refers to adult sheep meat).

what causes inflamed gums
|
<P> Gum swelling results from excess fluid (edema) in the soft tissues of the gums and may be accompanied by redness, pain, sores, ulcers and bleeding. Poor oral hygiene, resulting in inflammation or infection, is the most common cause of swollen gums. Depending on the cause, swollen gums may be present in only a small part of a gum (sore or ulcer), or at the gum line (gingivitis and periodontitis). Other conditions may produce swelling in the entire area of the gums. <P> There are a variety of causes for inflamed gums, from some minor trauma and irritation to serious gum diseases. Gum inflammation may make the gums prone to bleeding and very tender. Gum inflammation usually is mostly the result the lack of appropriate oral hygiene. Listed here will be a few causes that are important, symptoms and signs as well as some easy options for treatment as well as home remedies for the inflammation of the gums. <P> In many instances, swollen and bleeding gums are a sign of gum disease. However, there are a number of other things that could be causing your gum problems. Whatever the cause of sore, painful gums, there are steps you can take to minimize gum damage and discomfort. These bacteria may cause your gums to become inflamed, which results in red, swollen, or bleeding gums. For many people with gingivitis, this inflammation is not painful. If you catch gingivitis early, it can be reversed and healed with proper oral hygiene. <P> Painful, sore, red gums can be a symptom of gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) or, more likely, periodontitis (inflammation of the attachment fibers of the teeth and supporting bone), which can arise due to a number of different causes. Inflammation of the gums may manifest as. 1 pain, 2 sensitivity, 3 redness, <P> The bacteria cause inflammation of the gums that is called “gingivitis.” In gingivitis, the gums become red, swollen and can bleed easily. Gingivitis is a mild form of gum disease that can usually be reversed with daily brushing and flossing, and regular cleaning by a dentist or dental hygienist. <P> Swollen, inflamed gums can be a serious cause of discomfort. While there are numerous possible causes of inflamed gums, a common cause is gum disease. Other causes include irritation from braces or other dental hardware or canker sores.

<P> Colleges often report a combined tuition and fees figure. According to the College Board, the average cost of tuition and fees for the 2014–2015 school year was $31,231 at private colleges, $9,139 for state residents at public colleges, and $22,958 for out-of-state residents attending public universities. Housing and Meals. The cost of room and board depends on the campus housing and food plans you choose. The College Board reports that the average cost of room and board in 2014–2015 ranged from $9,804 at four-year public schools to $11,188 at private schools. Colleges also provide room and board estimates for living off campus based on typical student cost <P> Money can only buy happiness up to a point. But just how much you need to get to that threshold really depends on where you live, according to a new analysis by Doug Short, vice president of research at investment group Advisor Perspectives. <P> You might need less. But let’s get to the interesting part. Fidelity Investments reports that the average person in their system with both a 401k and an IRA plan has a balance of $212,600. By retirement age (65-69) the number is $359,000. This rule-of-thumb “how much do I need to retire” number assumes that you have no pension and that Social Security ceases to exist, and that you need to replicate the purchasing power of a $100,000 income at a rate of 100 percent. <P> Every year, NUS estimates how much a full-time higher education undergraduate in England spends on average in an academic year (a standard 39 week period). These estimates are based on research such as the government’s Student Income and Expenditure Survey, and the NUS/Unipol Accommodation Costs Survey. Potential income from loans and funding each academic year is up to £20,879 for London (our ‘average’ student gets £17,450) and £18,497 for the rest of England (our ‘average’ student gets £14,370). This is made up made up of: <P> If you have not yet paid for your accommodation, then you will need to have access to more money when you arrive. If you're looking for accommodation in the private sector, you will usually need to pay a deposit and one month's rent in advance, and so you might need to bring £1,000 with you. So it's important to bring enough money with you for the your first few weeks in the UK. The amount of money you will need to bring may depend on whether or not you have already paid for your accommodation. <P> Tuition fees depend on the program you choose, the school you plan to attend and the province or territory where you will study. However, in 2013 and 2014, the average cost of a year’s tuition at a Canadian university was $5,772 1. A college program may cost less but it will depend on the program you choose to study. If not, look at tuition costs for a few different programs to make a reasonable estimate. 1. http://www.statcan.gc.ca/tables-tableaux/sum-som/l01/cst01/educ50a-eng.htm. For many undergraduate university programs, $800 to $1,000 per year is a reasonable range for planning for the cost of books and other materials. For college programs, costs are often a little lower.

what is vlookup function
|
<P> VLOOKUP is one of Excel’s most useful functions, and it’s also one of the least understood. In this article, we demystify VLOOKUP by way of a real-life example. We’ll create a usable Invoice Template for a fictitious company. <P> HLOOKUP is the exact same function, but looks up data that has been formatted by rows instead of columns. The format of the VLOOKUP function is: VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,range_lookup). The lookup_value is the user input. This is the value that the function uses to search on. <P> Vlookup is one of Excel's built-in functions. The function is used when you want to find a value in the left-hand column of a vertical array of data, and return the corresponding value from another column in the same array. This best explained through an example. The Vlookup function can also be used to return a. match to the lookup value if an exact match is not found. An example of this is given in part 4 of this tutorial: Vlookup Example of Finding the Closest Match. <P> Office Excel 2007 contains a number of search functions to address this need. The VLOOKUP function enables you to search for a value in the first column of a table array, and if a match is found, then return a value from another column in this same row. <P> 1. Know when to use Vlookup. Vlookup is a function in Excel that allows you to type the value of one cell to look up the value of a corresponding cell in the same row. 1 Use it to look up information from a large spreadsheet or if you have to find repetitive information. <P> Learn how to sort data in a table alphabetically or numerically. VLOOKUP is a member of the lookup and reference functions, which includes the HLOOKUP function. Use the CLEAN function or the TRIM function to remove leading spaces in table values.

<P> In Marfan syndrome, the connective tissue is defective and does not act as it should. Because connective tissue is found throughout the body, Marfan syndrome can affect many body systems, including the skeleton, eyes, heart and blood vessels, nervous system, skin, and lungs. Marfan syndrome affects men, women, and children, and has been found among people of all races and ethnic backgrounds. <P> General Discussion. Marfan syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects connective tissue, which is the material between cells of the body that gives the tissues form and strength. Connective tissue is found all over the body and multiple organ systems may be affected in individuals with Marfan syndrome. <P> Because connective tissue is found throughout the body, Marfan syndrome can affect many body systems, including the skeleton, eyes, heart and blood vessels, nervous system, skin, and lungs. <P> Because connective tissue is found throughout the body, Marfan syndrome and related disorders can affect many parts of the body, including the heart and blood vessels, bones and joints, eyes, skin, and lungs.

weight and weight of a children's development
|
<P> Charts below are derived from the guidelines and growth charts provided by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO) and they will focus on providing an average weight range as well as normal range of height and weight for kids in different age groups, both girls and boys. <P> Maternal and Child Health nurses use percentile charts from the World Health Organisation for children between 0 and 24 months of age, which measure: 1 Boys: weight for age and length. 2 Girls: weight for age and length. 3 Boys and girls head circumference. BMI is calculated using height and height measurements, then used to compare a child’s weight relative to height with other children of the same age and gender, using BMI percentile charts. The following equation can be used to determine BMI: BMI = Weight (kg) / height (m) Height (m). <P> BACKGROUND The need for a public health agenda to promote healthy weight and development in early childhood emerged as a top priority from Oregon’s Maternal and Child Health (MCH) leadership retreat in 2010. KEY FACTS * Many children are already carrying too much weight at a very young age. In Oregon, nearly 15 percent of children aged 2–5 years who participate in the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program are obese. * Children who are overweight or obese are at risk of becoming overweight or obese adults. <P> BMI-for-age charts are recommended to assess weight in relation to stature for children ages 2 to 20 years. The weight-for-stature charts are available as an alternative to accommodate children ages 2-5 years who are not evaluated beyond the preschool years. The clinical charts for infants and older children were published in two sets. 1 Set 1 contains 10 charts (5 for boys and 5 for girls), with the 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th, and 95th smoothed percentile lines for all charts, and the 85th percentile for BMI-for-age and weight-for-stature. <P> Your child's growth is tracked on a development chart from the moment he is born. Measurements of his length, weight and head circumference are taken in the first minutes of life and these measurements are then put onto his own development chart to begin mapping his growth and development. A child in the 80th percentile for weight or length is heavier or taller than 80% of other kids of the same age and sex-both children, though, fall comfortably within the 'normal' range. Having a child high or low in the percentile bands doesn't indicate that he is more or less healthy than other children. <P> Growth charts 2 to 18 years. Maternal and Child Health nurses use percentile charts from the Centre for Disease Control for children between 2 and 18 years of age, which measure height, weight and Body Mass Index (BMI). BMI is calculated using height and height measurements, then used to compare a child’s weight relative to height with other children of the same age and gender, using BMI percentile charts. The following equation can be used to determine BMI: BMI = Weight (kg) / height (m) Height (m). <P> Birth. The average newborn is 19.5 inches long and weighs 7.25 pounds. Boys have a head circumference of about 13.5 inches and girls measure in at 13.3 inches, according to the National Center for Health Statistics. 1 Baby Growth Charts: Calculate Height and Weight. 2 Charting Baby's Development. <P> Conclusions: After controlling for the influence of maternal, environmental, and genetic factors, low birth weight has at most a small negative effect on children's mental and motor development in their first 2 years of life. We estimate the effects of VLBW and MLBW on children's mental and motor development scores, weight-for-age, weight-for-length, weight-for-height, and length-for-age z-scores at 9 months and 2 years. We examine whether differences in outcomes within <P> WHO Child Growth Standards: Length/height-for-age, weight-for-age, weight-for-length, weight-for-height and body mass index-for-age: Methods and development.

characteristics of a raccoon
|
<P> Life span: In the wild, a raccoon has a life expectancy of about 2 to 3 years, but in captivity a raccoon can live up to 20 years. Diet: The raccoon is an omnivorous and opportunistic eater, with its diet determined heavily by its environment. Size and Weight: The adult raccoon is a medium-sized mammal and the largest of the Procyonidae family. It averages 24 to 38 inches in length and can weigh between 14 to 23 lbs., or more, depending upon habitat and available food. <P> Species: Procyon lotor. Size and Weight: The adult raccoon is a medium-sized mammal and the largest of the Procyonidae family. It averages 24 to 38 inches in length and can weigh between 14 to 23 lbs., or more, depending upon habitat and available food. The male raccoon, or boar, is slightly larger than the female, also referred to as sow <P> The most characteristic physical feature of the raccoon is the area of black fur around the eyes, which contrasts sharply with the surrounding white face coloring. This is reminiscent of a bandit's mask and has thus enhanced the animal's reputation for mischief. The four smallest raccoon subspecies, with a typical weight of 1.8 to 2.7 kg (4.0 to 6.0 lb), are found along the southern coast of Florida and on the adjacent islands; an example is the Ten Thousand Island raccoon (Procyon lotor marinus). <P> The raccoon is a medium sized bear-like mammal that was originally only found in North America. Due to the deliberate introduction of the raccoon into other countries, the common raccoon can also be found now in Europe and Japan. The average raccoon is around 70 cm from the raccoons nose to the tip of the raccoons tail. A fully grown raccoon can weigh up to 10kg and can live for up to 20 years in captivity. <P> The raccoon (/rəˈkuːn/ or US /raeˈkuːn/ , Ræˈkuːn procyon), lotor sometimes spelled, racoon also known as the common, Raccoon North american, raccoon northern raccoon and colloquially as, coon is a-medium sized mammal native To North. america The four smallest raccoon subspecies, with a typical weight of 1.8 to 2.7 kg (4.0 to 6.0 lb), are found along the southern coast of Florida and on the adjacent islands; an example is the Ten Thousand Island raccoon (Procyon lotor marinus). <P> Physical Characteristics of Raccoons. Though predominantly nocturnal, raccoons can roam during the day. Hemera Technologies/Photos.com/Getty Images. Raccoons are warm-blooded, nocturnal creatures found in parts of Canada, throughout the United States and even into areas of South America. They can live alongside humans in cities, suburbs and farmland, as well as farther away in forests and marshes. This resembles the masks criminals would wear to hide their identities. Another raccoon characteristic is his large, bushy tail. Depending on his size, a racoon's tail can feature four to 10 black rings. A raccoon's weight varies depending on the region. He can be slim in warmer climates at 4 pounds, or weigh 23 pounds in cooler regions, with up to 50 percent body fat <P> Raccoons are noted for their intelligence, with studies showing that they are able to remember the solution to tasks for up to three years. The diet of the omnivorous raccoon, which is usually nocturnal, consists of about 40% invertebrates, 33% plant foods, and 27% vertebrates.

what is fossil fuel energy
|
<P> Fossil Fuels. The United States gets 84% of its total energy from oil, coal, and natural gas, all of which are fossil fuels. We depend on fossil fuels to heat our homes, run our vehicles, power industry and manufacturing, and provide us with electricity. <P> Fossil fuels are sources of energy that have developed within the earth over millions of years. Because fossil fuels-oil, natural gas, and coal-take so long to form, they are considered nonrenewable. <P> Energy transfer for the generation of electricity from a fossil fuel. The fossil fuels are coal, oil and natural gas. They are fuels because they release heat energy when they are burned. <P> Fossil fuels, including coal, oil and natural gas, are currently the world's primary energy source. Formed from organic material over the course of millions of years, fossil fuels have fueled U.S. and global economic development over the past century. <P> Today, fossil fuel industries drill or mine for these energy sources, burn them to produce electricity, or refine them for use as fuel for heating or transportation. Over the past 20 years, nearly three-fourths of human-caused emissions came from the burning of fossil fuels. <P> The follow studies provide an extensive analysis of fossil fuels as an energy resource, their impact on markets, and their importance in energy policy debates. Below these studies is an in-depth overview of fossil fuels. <P> Fossil fuels are made of the fossilized remains of living things that died millions of years ago. Coal, oil, and gas are the most important fossil fuels. Today, they provide most of the world’s energy. Plant remains decay to make brown, crumbly peat when they are buried and squashed. <P> Coal, the first of the fossil fuels to make its presence felt in the modern era, remains a major contributor to the world’s energy pool. Once burned in chimneys to produce heat, today coal is widely used as fuel for power plants that generate electricity for residential and commercial customers. <P> Explore the trend with our interactive chart. | Graphic by Daniel Wood, Energy Department. Fossil energy sources, including oil, coal and natural gas, are non-renewable resources that formed when prehistoric plants and animals died and were gradually buried by layers of rock.

how long to cook porterhouse steak on gas grill
|
<P> Finally, add a thin layer of some safflower, canola, or other vegetable oil. 3. Once the grill is preheated, lay the steaks on the grill. Assuming that your grill is a gas grill, cook your steaks over high heat if you want them rare. The high heat will cook the outside faster and leave the inside bloody. If you want your steaks cooked more than rare, lower the heat medium-high. Lay the steaks on the grill either parallel to the grates or 30 degrees perpendicular to it. The picture shows that the first steak is parallel and the second is 30 degrees perpendicular. 4. Rotate the steaks 30 degrees in either direction. After 2 minutes of grilling time, rotate the steaks. <P> salt, fresh black pepper and garlic. Get the grill as hot as you can. Cook both sides for 5-7 minutes until they are both seared (this helps seal in the juices). Turn the grill down to low and how long you cook it depends on how big the steak is. Hold your thumb and finger about 1 inch apart. Now press about 1/2 inch up from where the tissue on your hand begins. <P> 1 Before you grill the porterhouse steaks, leave them at room temperature for 2 hours. 2 This will keep them from over-charring on the grill. 3 Season the steak with seasoning salt or salt and pepper. 4 Make sure the grill is hot prior to cooking the steaks, at least 500–600 degrees. If you love steak, a porterhouse is a special treat, especially if it's grilled to perfection. Here's Elias Iglesias, executive chef of Morton's, The Steakhouse, to show how to cook a porterhouse steak on a gas grill. <P> Place over direct heat. In five minutes (by the clock) flip the meat. If you’re into crossed grill marks, you should have rotated the meat 90 degrees at about 2 1/2 minutes. Grill for approximately 3 more minutes for rare, 4 more minutes for medium-rare and 5 minutes for medium (150). The larger side is really a strip steak and the small side a tenderloin (filet). In a T-Bone the tenderloin must measure a minimum of 1/2 inch across the center and the porterhouse a minimum of 1 1/4 inches. So they are basically the same cut of meat except for more filet on the porterhouse. <P> 1 Put lid back down. 2 Let it cook for another 3-4 minutes to reach medium rare, or 5-6 minutes to reach medium. 3 To tell the temperature, you can use a simple hand test to determine the doneness of your grilled porterhouse steaks. 4 For medium rare, the steak should feel like the sponge area of your thumb. If you love steak, a porterhouse is a special treat, especially if it's grilled to perfection. Here's Elias Iglesias, executive chef of Morton's, The Steakhouse, to show how to cook a porterhouse steak on a gas grill. <P> Make certain the grill is extremely hot by allowing it to heat for 10 minutes before adding the steaks. Place the meat on the hottest portion of the grill and cook, undisturbed for 7 to 10 minutes per side for rare meat or 8 to 12 minutes for medium-rare. If you'd like the steaks to have cross-hatch marks, turn the meat 30 degrees after the first three to four minutes of cooking time has elapsed for each side. Fortunately, you can avoid disappointingly tough, over-cooked porterhouse steaks by understanding the basic precepts of successfully cooking thick steaks on the grill -- how to prepare the meat in advance, how long to cook the cook the steaks and how to correctly judge their doneness. <P> 1 Turn steaks over on opposite side in 5 minutes. 2 Put lid back down. 3 Let it cook for another 3-4 minutes to reach medium rare, or 5-6 minutes to reach medium. 4 To tell the temperature, you can use a simple hand test to determine the doneness of your grilled porterhouse steaks.

how to lower your heart rate long term
|
<P> The researchers found that a resting heart rate of over 84 beats per minute that either developed or persisted over a 5-year period increased the risk of cardiovascular death by 55%, and raised the risk of death from any cause by 79%. The authors state that a healthy heart rate is between 60 and 80 beats per minute. The study revealed that every extra ten beats per minute higher than a normal resting heart rate is linked to a 16% higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease and a 25% increased risk of death from all causes. <P> Most adults have a resting heart rate of 60-100 beats per minute (bpm). The fitter you are, the lower your resting heart rate is likely to be. For example, athletes may have a resting heart rate of 40-60 bpm or lower. You should contact your GP if you think your heart rate is continuously above 120 bpm or below 40 bpm, although this could just be normal for you. It's known as your resting heart rate, as long as you've been resting for at least five minutes before checking your pulse. You can also check if your pulse is regular or irregular by feeling its rhythm for about 20-30 seconds. Occasional irregular heartbeats, such as missed beats, are very common. <P> 1 One basic method is just subtract your age from 220. 2 So if you are 30, your maximum heart rate will be approximately 190 beats per minute. 3 This method is considered more accurate for those under 40. 4 A slightly more complicated recent method is to multiply your age by 0.7, and then subtract that figure from 208. Take your pulse. To take your pulse at the carotid artery, place your index and middle finger tips lightly on one side of your neck, to the side of your windpipe. Press gently until you find the pulse. Count how many beats there are in 10 seconds, and multiply the number by six. <P> For example, if you are 50, your maximum heart rate is 220 minus 50, or 170. Then multiply 170 by 0.6 (for the low end) and by 0.8 (for the high end), which gives a range of 102 to 136. Your heart rate should fall between these two numbers while you exercise. Your heart rate is faster when you get excited, anxious, or angry or if you are in pain or have a fever. And it rises temporarily if you smoke or drink a lot of alcohol or coffee. On the other hand, your resting heart rate slows during sleep and tends to be lower if you are very fit. <P> Resting heart rate, or pulse, refers to the number of times your heart beats per minute when you are at rest. Though a normal range is 50 to 100, most people’s hearts beat 60 to 80 times a minute. Above 100 is considered a rapid pulse, called tachycardia; an unusually slow resting heart rate is called bradycardia. Your heart rate is faster when you get excited, anxious, or angry or if you are in pain or have a fever. And it rises temporarily if you smoke or drink a lot of alcohol or coffee. On the other hand, your resting heart rate slows during sleep and tends to be lower if you are very fit. <P> Generally speaking, your resting heart rate should be no higher than 70 bpm (beats per minute), and having a higher one, according to an Italian survey, can increase the risk of dying from heart disease by up to 78%. In ancient eastern practices, there is a known exercise that you do, to reduce your heart rate – controlling the amount you breath in and out. This takes a lot of practice – and requires a focused mind to practice – but is the fastest way to reduce heart rate naturally. <P> A normal resting heart rate should be between 60 and 100 beats per minute. A rate of more than 90 is, however, considered high. 1 The resting heart rate of well trained endurance athletes can be between 40 and 60 beats per minute. 2 Test your rate over a few days to get an average. Take your pulse. To take your pulse at the carotid artery, place your index and middle finger tips lightly on one side of your neck, to the side of your windpipe. Press gently until you find the pulse. Count how many beats there are in 10 seconds, and multiply the number by six. <P> Monitor your heart rate during exercise. To keep track of your heart rate during exercise just take your pulse or your wrist or neck. Count for fifteen seconds and multiply the number by four. When you are exercising you want to keep your heart rate between 50% and 85% of your maximum. If you are dropping down, try to up the intensity. 1 If you are relatively new to exercise, increase gradually. 2 You will still reap the benefits and will be less likely to sustain injury or to become discouraged. Take your pulse. To take your pulse at the carotid artery, place your index and middle finger tips lightly on one side of your neck, to the side of your windpipe. Press gently until you find the pulse. Count how many beats there are in 10 seconds, and multiply the number by six. <P> Even if you’re not an athlete, knowledge about your heart rate can help you monitor your fitness level — and it might even help you spot developing health problems. Your heart rate, or pulse, is the number of times your heart beats per minute. Normal heart rate varies from person to person. Knowing yours can be an important heart-health gauge. If you’re sitting or lying and you’re calm, relaxed and aren’t ill, your heart rate is normally between 60 (beats per minute) and 100 (beats per minute), Stein said. But a heart rate lower than 60 doesn’t necessarily signal a medical problem. It could be the result of taking a drug such as a beta blocker.

what process is found in both cellular respiration and photosynthesis
|
<P> Cellular respiration is the process of breaking down food molecules to obtain energy and store it in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules. Plant cells, after creating sugar molecules through photosynthesis, undergo cellular respiration to create ATP molecules. ☞ Cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria of the cell. ☛ Photosynthesis uses water, sunlight, and CO 2 from the atmosphere to create glucose molecules, and releases oxygen as a by-product. <P> Photosynthesis is the process by which organisms that contain the pigment chlorophyll convert light energy into chemical energy which can be stored in the molecular bonds of organic molecules (e.g., sugars). Photosynthesis powers almost all trophic chains and food webs on the Earth. Sunlight is converted to chemical energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main energy-storing molecule in living organisms. ATP is then transported throughout the chloroplast and used to provide the chemical energy necessary to power other metabolic reactions. <P> Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, some bacteria, and some protistans use the energy from sunlight to produce sugar, which cellular respiration converts into ATP, the fuel used by all living things. <P> Yes, although the energy released by respiration is in a different form. The process of photosynthesis stores energy in the form of chemical bonds (in carbohydrates includin … g glucose, or sugar) and in the process releases free oxygen by breaking down carbon dioxide. Cellular respiration absorbs free oxygen, to release energy stored in the chemical bonds of food. In animal cells, Cellular Respiration is found or takes place in the mitochondria. In plant cells photosynthesis is found or takes place in the Chloroplasts. Photosynthe … sis uses carbon dioxide, light and water to make glucose, while cellular respiration uses the glucose to make ATP. Bruce Pedersen. <P> Best Answer: The solution is E. electron transport chain. Citric acid cycle and the Calvin cycle are found in photosynthesis. Lactic acid fermentation and glycolysis are found in cellular respiration. Only electron transport chain is found in both. <P> 1 Photosynthesis – The process of capturing light energy and converting it to sugar energy, in the presence of chlorophyll using carbon dioxide and water. 2 Respiration – The process of metabolizing (burning) sugars to yield energy for growth, reproduction, and other life processes. <P> 6CO2+6H2O → C6H12O6+6O2 In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are taken into the cells, then they are converted to carbon dioxide, water and ATP energy and some other energy. Some of the ATP energy is used in photosynthesis; a large amount of energy is used up as heat, only a little energy is stored in the cells. The formula of cellular respiration is: C6H12O6+6O2 → 6CO2+6H2O+ATP. Both processes take place inside the cells. In contrast, The site of photosynthesis is chloroplast, while the sites of cellular respiration are cytoplasm and mitochondrion <P> During the process of photosynthesis, light penetrates the cell and passes into the chloroplast. The light energy is intercepted by chlorophyll molecules on the granal stacks. Some of the light energy is converted to chemical energy. Sunlight is converted to chemical energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main energy-storing molecule in living organisms. ATP is then transported throughout the chloroplast and used to provide the chemical energy necessary to power other metabolic reactions. <P> Cellular respiration takes place in the same way in both plants and animals. Living cells obtain the products of photosynthesis (sugar molecules) and undergo cellular respiration to produce ATP molecules. Some cells respire aerobically, using oxygen, while others undergo anaerobic respiration, without using oxygen. ☞ Cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and mitochondria of the cell. ☛ Photosynthesis uses water, sunlight, and CO 2 from the atmosphere to create glucose molecules, and releases oxygen as a by-product.

what are conifers
|
<P> They're called conifers because they had pine cones, from the Latin words conus meaning cone and ferre meaning to carry. Inside the pine cones were seeds to make little pine tree babies. <P> Conifers reproduce by means of male and female cones. Male cones produce pollen, and female cones produce seeds. In some New Zealand conifers, male and female cones grow on separate trees. Unlike the seeds of flowering plants, conifer seeds are not enclosed in a fruit but are attached to a cone scale. Foliage. All the native conifers are evergreen. They have narrow, needle-like or scale-like leaves, and in this respect contrast with many flowering trees, which are broad-leaved. The juvenile leaves of some are quite different from their adult form. <P> Scales of a Cone. Trees that grow cones are in a group called conifers. The cones of the conifers are very important because they are the place where the tree makes and shelters its seeds. Cones are made up of many scales. Scales are a kind of shelter for the seed. When it's time, the scales of the cone open and the seeds fall to the ground. <P> The conifers, division Pinophyta, also known as division Coniferophyta or Coniferae, are one of 12 extant division-level taxa within the Kingdom Plantae (Viridiplantae) and 10 within the extant land plants. Pinophytes are gymnosperms, cone-bearing seed plants with vascular tissue. The conifers are an ancient group, with a fossil record extending back about 300 million years to the Paleozoic in the late Carboniferous period; even many of the modern genera are recognizable from fossils 60–120 million years old. <P> Kauri, kaikawaka and kawaka are the only native conifers to produce woody cones that split open when mature, releasing seeds into the wind. The seed cones of podocarps and celery pines are smaller, surrounded by a fleshy support or cover, and their seeds are distributed by birds. Foliage. All the native conifers are evergreen. They have narrow, needle-like or scale-like leaves, and in this respect contrast with many flowering trees, which are broad-leaved. The juvenile leaves of some are quite different from their adult form. <P> The male cone (microstrobilus or pollen cone) is structurally similar across all conifers, differing only in small ways (mostly in scale arrangement) from species to species. Extending out from a central axis are microsporophylls (modified leaves). <P> The conifers are a group of about 588 species of trees and shrubs that include many of the best-known plants in the world. All conifers bear seeds inside cones, woody protective structures. There are seven families of conifers. The largest is the Pine family (232 species), which includes such familiar trees as pine, spruce, fir, and larch. Most plants in this family have needlelike foliage and bear their seeds in a cone formed of papery or woody scales whorled about a central axis. <P> Any of various trees or shrubs that bear cones. Conifers are dependent on the wind to blow pollen produced by the male cones to the female cones, where seeds develop. Conifers are usually evergreen, often have needle-shaped or scale-like leaves, and include the pine, fir, spruce, hemlock, and yew. See Note at pollination. <P> All extant conifers are woody plants with secondary growth, the great majority being trees with just a few being shrubs. Typical examples of conifers include cedars, Douglas-firs, cypresses, firs, junipers, kauri, larches, pines, hemlocks, redwoods, spruces, and yews. The conifers are an ancient group, with a fossil record extending back about 300 million years to the Paleozoic in the late Carboniferous period; even many of the modern genera are recognizable from fossils 60–120 million years old.

detox how to reduce bloating
|
<P> The first step in figuring out the cause of abdominal bloating is determining whether it's associated with eating or drinking, or both. Bloating can be caused by diet, particularly if someone has a high salt intake or eats a lot of gas-producing foods, such as dark leafy vegetables or beans. Calcium supplements can also cause gas in some people. A simple reflex like inhaling can be the cause of bloating. <P> There is: detox water. Sweating away the stress and snacks of the workday is an unquestionably healthy habit, as is trying to eat well for your body. But pesky water weight can cling to your belly through the cleanest day of eating and the most intense workout session, and that’s where water comes in. Instagrammer Laury Ann has a detox water for every craving: calming and balanced, sweet-tart, herbaceous, or straight-up fruity. Channel the spa with cucumber-lemon water or hot summer days with lemonade-inspired raspberry-lemon water. Whatever you choose is sure to be a refreshing break from your plain bottle. <P> Anti-Aging and Anti-Bloat Detox Water (click to see recipe). I hope you found these recipes helpful! All the Detox Bottles are available on www.shopblogilates.com ! Remember…if your urine looks like lemonade, you are DEHYDRATED. If it looks like lime juice, you’re in the clear and doing well. <P> Whether you're feeling bloated, lethargic, or just wanting to flush out some toxins from the body, this drink is a go-to! It contains 4 ingredients: water, tea, lemon, and mint leaves-each of which are beneficial to helping cleanse the body. Regularly drinking water helps push toxins through the body, making the job of organs such as the kidneys and liver easier. Green Tea: Green tea is my go-to choice for this detox drink, but there are a plethora of other teas that offer similar benefits. <P> Instead we want to go on a Light and Clean Detox Plan for the next 2 - 3 days to: 1. Release Water Retention & Bloating. 2. Rebalance Your Blood Sugar Level. 3. Recharge Your Energy & Metabolism. This detox plan will be based on cutting out starchy carbs in order for your body to flush out the unneeded water rapidly. <P> Water is just all around good for us! Regularly drinking water helps push toxins through the body, making the job of organs such as the kidneys and liver easier. Green Tea: Green tea is my go-to choice for this detox drink, but there are a plethora of other teas that offer similar benefits. Where do I even begin with green tea benefits? Green tea helps fight inflammation in the body, boost immunity, and reduce stress. <P> People can also retain too much water if they eat a diet high in sodium, which can lead to the risks of high blood pressure. Furthermore, medications, such as prednisone and popular anti-inflammatories, can also cause excess water gain. Common Physiological Causes of Abdominal Bloating and Distention. <P> Bloating is a common, day-to-day battle that can leave you wondering what triggered your bulging belly.

<P> The ideal core temperature is considered to be around 98.6° Degree Fahrenheit or 37° degree Celsius. This temperature is however, the average body temperature and the overall normal temperature varies from a minimum of 97.7° Fahrenheit (36.5° Celsius) to a maximum of almost 99.5° Fahrenheit (37.5° Celsius). Any temperature above or below this range is abnormal. <P> The normal body temperature has long been thought to be 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, but there are several factors that affect body temperature. Normal body temperature varies by person and can also increase or decrease as a person ages, changes environment, changes diet or alters medication. <P> Normal human body temperature varies slightly from person to person and by the time of day. Consequently, each type of measurement has a range of normal temperatures. The range for normal human body temperatures, taken orally, is 7002309950000000000♠36.8±0.5 °C (7002309927777777777♠98.2±0.9 °F). The body temperature of a healthy person varies during the day by about 0.5 °C (0.9 °F) with lower temperatures in the morning and higher temperatures in the late afternoon and evening, as the body's needs and activities change. <P> Average human body temperature. Body temperature changes throughout the day. It is the lowest in the early morning between 4 and 6 a.m., and the highest in the early evening between 6 and 8 p.m. Normal temperature is about 37°C or 98.6°F. Normal body temperature for healthy babies is in the range of 96.8°F to 98.6°F, or 36°C to 37°C. If the baby's body temperature rises above 100.4°F to 101.3°F, then it is considered as indication of fever. If it falls below 96.8°F then the child has low temperature and needs immediate warming up. <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 98.6°F (37°C) . 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> 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. Also, your normal temperature changes by as much as 0.6°C (1°F) during the day, depending on how active you are and the time of day. Body temperature is very sensitive to hormone levels. So a woman's temperature may be higher or lower when she is ovulating or having her menstrual period. <P> Pyrexia in Cats. The normal body temperature for cats falls in the range of 99.5-102.5 Fahrenheit. Fever, referred to medically as pyrexia, can be defined as a higher than normal body temperature in cats – a body temperature of at least 103.5 ° F (39.7° C). <P> Fever symptoms. A fever is a high temperature when the body's temperature rises above 37.5C (99.5F). The normal body temperature is between 36C-37C (96.8F-98.6F). The high temperature or fever often lasts around two to three days. Check for high temperature or fever using an appropriate thermometer and following the instructions.

what is material exiting the stomach called

<P> Chyme (/kaɪm/ ; from Greek χυμός khymos, juice) is the semifluid mass of partly digested food that is expelled by the stomach into the duodenum and moves through the intestines during digestion. Depending on the quantity and contents of the meal, the stomach will digest the food into chyme in anywhere between 40 minutes to a few hours. With a pH of approximately 2, chyme emerging from the stomach is very acidic. The duodenum secretes a hormone, cholecystokinin (CCK), which causes the gall bladder to contract, releasing alkaline bile into the duodenum. CCK also causes the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas <P> The stomach lies between the esophagus and the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine). It is in the left upper part of the abdominal cavity. The top of the stomach lies against the diaphragm. Lying behind the stomach is the pancreas. The stomach is a muscular, hollow, dilated part of the digestive system which functions as an important organ of the digestive tract in many animals, including vertebrates, echinoderms, insects (mid-gut), and molluscs. <P> Chyme has a low pH that is countered by the production of bile, helping to further digest food. Chyme is part liquid and part solid: a thick semifluid mass of partially digested food and digestive secretions that is formed in the stomach and small intestine during digestion. Depending on the quantity and contents of the meal, the stomach will digest the food into chyme in anywhere between 40 minutes to a few hours. With a pH of approximately 2, chyme emerging from the stomach is very acidic. The duodenum secretes a hormone, cholecystokinin (CCK), which causes the gall bladder to contract, releasing alkaline bile into the duodenum. CCK also causes the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas <P> First, it stores the swallowed food and liquid. To do this, the muscle of the upper part of the stomach relaxes to accept large volumes of swallowed material. The second job is to mix up the food, liquid, and digestive juice produced by the stomach. The lower part of the stomach mixes these materials by its muscle action. The third task of the stomach is to empty its contents slowly into the small intestine. <P> 1 The esophagus connects to the stomach at a small region called the cardia. 2 The cardia is a narrow, tube-like region that opens up into the wider regions of the stomach. 3 Within the cardia is the lower esophageal sphincter, a band of muscle tissue that contracts to hold food and acid inside of the stomach. The stomach is the main food storage tank of the body. If it were not for the stomach’s storage capacity, we would have to eat constantly instead of just a few times each day. <P> In the stomach, a large sack-like organ, the food is churned and mixed with a strong gastric (mostly hydrochloric) acid. Only partly digested, this mix in the s … tomach is called chyme. Additional Information: However, the digestive process isn't restricted to the stomach. Digestion is accomplished over the full range of the digestive system, beginning in the mouth and ending at the anus. <P> In most vertebrates, the stomach is located between the esophagus and the small intestine. It secretes protein-digesting enzymes called proteases and gastric acid to aid in food digestion, through smooth muscular contractions before sending partially digested food (chyme) to the small intestines. The stomach is a muscular, hollow, dilated part of the digestive system which functions as an important organ of the digestive tract in many animals, including vertebrates, echinoderms, insects (mid-gut), and molluscs. <P> Picture of the Stomach. © 2009 WebMD, LLC. All rights reserved. The stomach is a muscular organ located on the left side of the upper abdomen. The stomach receives food from the esophagus. As food reaches the end of the esophagus, it enters the stomach through a muscular valve called the lower esophageal sphincter. The stomach secretes acid and enzymes that digest food. Ridges of muscle tissue called rugae line the stomach. The stomach muscles contract periodically, churning food to enhance digestion.

where did the ancient greeks come from
|
<P> The Greeks called themselves Hellenes, and their land was Hellas. The name Greece comes from the Romans. The name 'Hellenes' came from a legendary hero named Hellen (a man, and not the same as Helen of Troy). Some Greek philosophers did not mind shocking people or being laughed at. <P> After the Minoans came the Myceneans. They were soldiers from mainland Greece, and were the Greeks who fought Troy in the 1200s BC. After the Mycenean age ended, about 1100 BC, Greece entered a Dark Age. This lasted until the 800s BC when the Greeks set off by sea to explore and set up colonies. <P> Ancient Greece is a large area in the north-east of the Mediterranean, where people spoke Greek. It was much bigger than the Greece we know today. It was the civilization of Greece from the Archaic, period of the 8th/6th centuries BC to 146 BC. The period ended with the Roman conquest of Greece in the Battle of Corinth. For most of this time the Greeks did not have a single government or ruler. There were a number of city states, each with its own constitution. <P> The Ancient Greeks lived in mainland Greece and the Greek islands, but also in what is now Turkey, and in colonies scattered around the Mediterranean sea coast. <P> Ancient Greece is called 'the birthplace of Western civilisation'. About 2500 years ago, the Greeks created a way of life that other people admired and copied. The Romans copied Greek art and Greek gods, for example.

<P> Federal vs. Unitary Governments. In a unitary government the power is held by one central authority but in a federal government, the power is divided between national (federal) government and local (state) governments. In recent years there has been a strong global trend toward federal governments. * There is no hierarchy of sovereign powers. * States have no authority to pass their own laws, and the central (national) government can order the states to do anything. (Just like a state can order a town to do anything, because the town is not sovereign.). * The federal government has a huge percentage of the power. <P> Due to federalism, both the federal government and each of the state governments have their own court systems.

best foods to eat for prediabetes

<P> Prediabetes means having blood sugar levels that are higher than normal but not yet in the territory of diabetes — and you can easily make changes that will improve your health and lower your risk of developing diabetes and its related complications. “Adding nuts to your diet has been shown to reduce the risk of Type 2 diabetes,” Corcoran says. The best picks are raw or dry-roasted, with no added fat, salt or sugar—add them to salads or grain dishes for extra flavour or nutrition. <P> 2. Lower Your Weight. If you're overweight, you might not have to lose as much as you think to make a difference. In one study, people who had prediabetes and lost 5% to 7% of their body weight (just 10-14 pounds in someone who weights 200 pounds) cut their chances of getting diabetes by 58%. See your doctor every three to six months, Gerety says. Prediabetes: 7 Steps to Take Now. What to do to stop prediabetes from becoming diabetes. By Winnie Yu. WebMD Feature.

Prediabetes is, as its name suggests, an early stage of diabetes. If you have prediabetes, your blood sugar levels are too high to be considered normal but not high enough to be in the diabetic range. Prediabetes puts you at risk of developing full-blown type 2 diabetes, but lifestyle changes can help you avoid going down that road. Trans fat is a processed and harmful fat produced by the hydrogenation of vegetable oils. Trans fat is not naturally found in foods but is now added to many processed foods, such as potato chips, crackers, croissants, pizza dough, muffins and many other baked goods because it is cheaper and has a longer shelf-life. <P> Limiting foods high in calories, such as foods high in fat or sugar, can help you lose the weight needed to reverse your prediabetes.

average retirement age for police officers

<P> On average Detroit's firefighters, police officers and other city employees receive pension checks that are similar or slightly smaller in size than the national average of $30,000 a year, according to pension experts. <P> “The average Chicago police pension (2009-10) is $62,000 at age 58 after 29 years.”. “For a person on Social Security age 62 getting $22,000 a year, the estimated total pension payout over a normal lifetime is $560,000. Compare this to an average Chicago police pension of $62,000 starting at age 58. In this case, the estimated total pension payout over a normal lifetime is $2,500,000.”. “The average Chicago police pension is worth three times that of Social Security with retirement four years earlier and with six years less work.”. <P> A.

As she leaves for the Capitol, Prim makes Katniss promise to try hard to win the Games. 1 Clove (Isabelle Fuhrman) is the District 2 female in the 74th Hunger Games. 2 Clove was a member of the career pack and an expert with throwing knives. 3 She scored a 10 in her individual training, very common of a career tribute. 4 In the initial bloodbath, she was the first tribute who came close to killing Katnis <P> 1 Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) is the male tribute from District 12, in both the 74th and 75th Hunger Games. 2 He is a baker's son. 3 He is quite charismatic, which helps him during the Games. 4 He states in an interview after the Reaping that he has been in love with Katniss since the first day he saw her. 1 Clove (Isabelle Fuhrman) is the District 2 female in the 74th Hunger Games. 2 Clove was a member of the career pack and an expert with throwing knives. 3 She scored a 10 in her individual training, very common of a career tribute. 4 In the initial bloodbath, she was the first tribute who came close to killing Katniss <P> Glimmer was born in the luxurious District 1, one of the wealthier districts, that produces Career tributes. She presumably spent most of her life training for the games and due to this, she most likely volunteered for the 74th Hunger Games. Glimmer's Tribute Identification Card. 1 In the 74th Hunger Games, Katniss killed both tributes from District 1, Glimmer and Marvel. 2 In the book, Glimmer and Marvel are described as being spray painted silver, but in the movie, the District 1 tributes are wearing fuchsia and pink feathery costumes. <P> 1 Rue (Amandla Stenberg) is the District 11 female in the 74th Hunger Games. 2 She was the youngest of all the tributes in the games, being just 12 years old. 3 She scored a 7 in her individual training. 4 She survived the initial bloodbath, unusual for such a young tribute. 1 Clove (Isabelle Fuhrman) is the District 2 female in the 74th Hunger Games. 2 Clove was a member of the career pack and an expert with throwing knives. 3 She scored a 10 in her individual training, very common of a career tribute. 4 In the initial bloodbath, she was the first tribute who came close to killing Katniss <P> Tributes are residents of the 12 districts of Panem who are forced/volunteered to participate in an annual Hunger Games. Except in special cases, such as for Quarter Quells. Twenty-four children between the ages of 12 and 18 are chosen at random. Every district must give two tributes, a girl and a boy. The circumstances may be different if it is a Quarter Quell, like the 50th Hunger Games. That year, each district had to send two boys and two girls to compete, thus providing a total of 48 tributes. Quarter Quells are special editions of Hunger Games that happened every quarter century, hence the name, Quarter Quell.. Each Quarter Quell had a certain theme that would cruelly remind the districts of their failure at rebellion. 1 In the first Quarter Quell, the tributes were not drawn randomly from the glass balls. <P> The Hunger Games follows 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen, a girl from District 12 who volunteers for the 74th Hunger Games in place of her younger sister Primrose Everdeen. Also participating from District 12 is Peeta Mellark, a boy who has developed a secret crush on Katniss. The series is set in The Hunger Games universe, and follows young characters Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark as they fight through a deadly battle royal. The novels in the trilogy are titled The Hunger Games (2008), Catching Fire (2009) and Mockingjay (2010). <P> More Information-Cato was the male tribute from District 2 in the 74th Hunger Games and one of the main antagonists of The Hunger Games due to being a Career Tribute. He is the leader of the Career alliance formed by tributes from Districts 1, 2, and 4 (in the film only Districts 1 and 2). More Information-Foxface was reaped into the Hunger Games as the female tribute from District 5. She was in the tribute parade waving nervously to the audience from her chariot while representing her districts main export to the Capitol, which is electricity. <P> In the 74th Hunger Games, Prim was selected first by Effie, but Katniss volunteers to take her place since becoming a tribute at a young age is basically a death sentence, especially in District 12. Quarter Quells are special editions of Hunger Games that happened every quarter century, hence the name, Quarter Quell.. Each Quarter Quell had a certain theme that would cruelly remind the districts of their failure at rebellion. 1 In the first Quarter Quell, the tributes were not drawn randomly from the glass balls. <P> More Information-Marvel was the male tribute from District 1 in the the 74th Hunger Games. As a Career Tribute, Marvel was strong and ruthless, yet overconfident. It is unknown if he volunteered or was reaped for the Games. He presumably trained extremely for Games life like most tributes from his district. More Information-Foxface was reaped into the Hunger Games as the female tribute from District 5. She was in the tribute parade waving nervously to the audience from her chariot while representing her districts main export to the Capitol, which is electricity.

<P> Answer by Vikram Sohal. Confidence votes 95. As an avid bodybuilder and huge fan of pro bodybuilding, I can tell you that the TOP IFBB professional bodybuilders such as Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler, Darrem Charles etc. probably earn in excess of $75,000 a year. SO it all depends on how many contests you enter and do well in, and how many sponsors you have, and also Guest posing. When professional bodybuilders guest pose at amateur contests they can earn up to 5-10 grand to go and pose for about 5 minutes. <P> Competitions. Major competitions can have prize money for winners of between $250 (3rd in IFBB Valenti Gold Cup Pro Men’s Physique), $2,000 (25th place in Mr Olympia) and $250,000+ (1st place in Mr Olympia).

If they join in international bodybuilding competitions, they can win $300,000 to $400,000. Professionals who are not as popular as Schwarzenneger and Ferrigno usually receive an annual income of $75,000 to $100,000. <P> hi guys. What do you think! How Much Does an IFBB pro earns! with all the contracts with big companies, endorsing their products and doing 1 or 2 shows each year, and winning it. For Example lets consider the TOP-15 Olympia contenders, they have to be their country`s best and then win a qualifier each year <P> Personal Training. $50,000 per year is average for a certified personal trainer, with some of the more business-minded trainers earning $100,000 to $200,000.

what is palm oil shortening
|
<P> Palm oil is naturally reddish in color because of a high beta-carotene content. It is not to be confused with palm kernel oil derived from the kernel of the same fruit, or coconut oil derived from the kernel of the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera). Along with coconut oil, palm oil is one of the few highly saturated vegetable fats and is semi-solid at room temperature. Like most plant-based products, palm oil contains very little cholesterol. Palm oil is a common cooking ingredient in the tropical belt of Africa, Southeast Asia and parts of Brazil <P> NEW! • Organic Vegan Superfood Shortening. Nutiva's shortening is an organic blend of coconut and palm oils. It is the best choice for baked goods such as pie crusts, biscuits and cookies that call for a neutral-flavored, dairy-free shortening. While the palm oil is ideal for creating flaky baked goods, the coconut oil provides the added health benefits of lauric acid. This shortening is vegan and contains no dairy, soy or canola. It is organic, non-GMO and Fair Trade certified. The golden color reveals the presence of antioxidant vitamins A & E naturally found in red palm oil. All Nutiva red palm oil is sourced from small, organic family farms in partnership with Natural Habitats™ <P> The differences are in color (raw palm kernel oil lacks carotenoids and is not red), and in saturated fat content: Palm mesocarp oil is 41% saturated, while palm kernel oil and coconut oil are 81% and 86% saturated respectively. Along with coconut oil, palm oil is one of the few highly saturated vegetable fats and is semi-solid at room temperature. Like most plant-based products, palm oil contains very little cholesterol. Palm oil is a common cooking ingredient in the tropical belt of Africa, Southeast Asia and parts of Brazil <P> Palm shortening is derived from palm oil (read about Virgin Palm Oil here). In its natural state, palm oil is a mixture of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, with most of the unsaturated fat being monounsaturated fat. Palm shortening is palm oil that has some of its unsaturated fats removed, giving it a very firm texture, and high melting point. The melting point of our Palm Shortening is 97 degrees F., making it very shelf stable. It is NOT hydrogenised, and contains NO trans fats! <P> Palm shortening is derived from palm oil.

Many see this palm oil product as a healthy substitute found in foods that may not always be considered healthy, for example a chocolate candy snack. You also need to understand how the procedure works as well. The palm shortening is actually gathered from fresh palm fruit. This is natural palm fruit oil in its purest form. The difference between this and other products is the fact that once this organic palm oil for the shortening has been collected there is no need for any procedures, such as refinement.

roast pork internal temperature when cooked
|
<P> The National Pork Board recommends cooking pork chops, roasts, and tenderloin to an internal temperature between 145° F. (medium rare) and 160° F. (medium), followed by a 3 minute rest. Since large cuts increase approximately 10° F. while resting, remove them from the heat at 150° F. followed by a 10 <P> Pork in Canada (whole cuts) need to be cooked to an internal temperature of 160˚F (71˚C). For more information please visit the following link: http://www.befoodsafe.ca/en-temperature.asp. Pork in USA need to be cooked to an internal temperature of 145˚F for whole meats with a 3 minute resting period. <P> Checking for Doneness: It is not the time in the oven but the internal temperature of the roast that will determine if it is cooked properly. According to the USDA and Minnesota Pork Board, “Pork is best when cooked to medium doneness – 160 degrees F. on a meat thermometer. <P> Cook all raw pork steaks, chops, and roasts to a minimum internal temperature of 145 °F as measured with a food thermometer before removing meat from the heat source. For safety and quality, allow meat to rest for at least three minutes before carving or consuming. <P> 1 Heat oven to 325 degrees, remove roast from fridge; pat dry. 2 Arrange on a rack in a roasting pan, skin side up and place in the oven. 3 Roast to an internal temperature of 150 degrees, about 2 ¾ to 3 hours. 4 When meat is done, raise oven temperature to 450 degrees for 15 minutes to crisp the skin. <P> Today's pork can be safely enjoyed when cooked to an internal temperature of 145 °F as measured with a food thermometer before removing meat from the heat source. For safety and quality, allow meat to rest for at least three minutes before carving or consuming. <P> WIth a roast, you generally want to cook to an internal temperature, not a time. But, when you lay it out butterflied, it’s thinner and more of the meat is exposed to heat, so if you were to cook it at 350 degrees at a 1/2 hour/lb. a 6 lb roast would end up ruinously overdone. <P> It is necessary, therefore, that pork is cooked to an internal temperature of 176°F (77°C) for fresh loin roasts to 185°F (85°C) for other large fresh cuts. Cured and smoked products should reach an internal temperature of 160°F to 170°F (72°C to 85°C). 77–85 °C. Reichl, Ruth.

<P> Violin Rosin. Rosin is a sticky subject. If you don't get a grip on it you won't go far in playing your violin.Okay, I'm finished with my puns.Seriously, violin rosin is a very serious business for anyone who plays a bowed instrument. If you don't wipe the rosin off, you'll soon need to use a cleaner on the violin.

The amount of rosin on a string greatly affects he playability and the tone produced by that string <P> Rosin, also called colophony or Greek pitch (Pix graeca), græca is a solid form of resin obtained from pines and some other, plants mostly, conifers produced by heating fresh liquid resin to vaporize the volatile liquid terpene.

Rosin Tech requires nothing more than an ordinary hair straightener, some parchment paper, and either flower or hash. The benefit of using this technique with hash is that it will produce a full melt with a comparable yield. <P> Violin rosin is a hardened tree sap that you apply to your violin bow before every other practice in order to give it the necessary grip when drawing the bow across the strings on your violin. <P> After you’ve applied rosin to the bow for the first time, a lot of rosin dust will probably go all over your violin when you first start to play. Don’t be alarmed by this. You can simply wipe it off with a soft cotton cloth after you’re done with the initial rosining of your new bow. It is not uncommon for a violinist to apply rosin every 6 hours or so of playing, but it really depends on personal preference. For beginner violinists, that mysterious lump of tree sap in your instrument case might seem a little strange. <P> A cake of rosin, made for use by violinists, used here for soldering.

what is the function of the perimetrium layer
|
<P> You see, there are actually two zones within the endometrium layer. There's the functional zone, which is the layer closest to the uterine cavity (that's that big space in the middle of the uterus), and there's the basilar zone, and that's the layer next to the myometrium. <P> The uterus, also commonly known as the womb, is a hollow muscular organ of the female reproductive system that is responsible for the development of the embryo and fetus during pregnancy. Superior to the body is a domed region known as the fundus of the uterus. The fallopian tubes extend laterally from the corners of the fundus. Three distinct tissue layers make up the walls of the uterus: 1 The perimetrium is the outermost layer that forms the external skin of the uterus. <P> 1 Inside the myometrium is the endometrium layer that borders the hollow lumen of the uterus. 2 The endometrium is made of simple columnar epithelial tissue with many associated exocrine glands and a highly vascular connective tissue that provides support to the developing embryo and fetus during pregnancy. Superior to the body is a domed region known as the fundus of the uterus. The fallopian tubes extend laterally from the corners of the fundus. Three distinct tissue layers make up the walls of the uterus: 1 The perimetrium is the outermost layer that forms the external skin of the uterus. <P> The middle layer, or myometrium, makes up most of the uterine volume and is the muscular layer, composed primarily of smooth muscle cells. The outer layer of the uterus, the serosa or perimetrium, is a thin layer of tissue made of epithelial cells that envelop the uterus. The female reproductive organs. The anatomy of the uterus consists of the following 3 tissue layers (see the following image): The inner layer, called the endometrium, is the most active layer and responds to cyclic ovarian hormone changes; the endometrium is highly specialized and is essential to menstrual and reproductive function. <P> Macrostructure [edit]. The myometrium is located between the endometrium (the inner layer of the uterine wall), and the serosa or perimetrium (the outer uterine layer). From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The myometrium is the middle layer of the uterine wall, consisting mainly of uterine smooth muscle cells (also called uterine myocytes), but also of supporting stromal and vascular tissue. Its main function is to induce uterine contractions <P> The perimetrium (or serous coat of uterus) is the outer serosa layer of the uterus, equivalent to peritoneum. It is embrionically derived from visceral peritoneum. Perimetrium consists of superficial mesothelium, and a thin layer of loose connective tissue beneath it. Posterior surface of the uterus is completely covered by the perimetrium, but anterior surface only partially. <P> SEARCH. The perimetrium, the myometrium, and the endometrium are layered accordingly to create the wall of the uterus. A thin, visceral peritoneum creates the outer serosal layer of the perimetrium. The broad ligament runs and creates a continuation right along the lateral segment of the uterine wall. <P> The endometrium is the innermost glandular layer and functions as a lining for the uterus, preventing adhesions between the opposed walls of the myometrium, thereby maintaining the patency of the uterine cavity. It is the innermost layer of the uterus which is highly specialized for performing the menstrual and reproductive functions. 2) Myometrium. It is the layer present between the Endometrium and Perimetrium of the uterus. It is the muscular layer made up of smooth muscle cells and occupies most of the uterine space.

why was the end of the treaty of versailles affect germany
|
<P> World War I officially ended with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919. Negotiated among the Allied powers with little participation by Germany, its 15 parts and 440 articles reassigned German boundaries and assigned liability for reparations. Treaty of Versailles Ends World War I. German resentment over harsh peace terms leads to a rise in nationalist sentiment and the eventual rise to power of Adolf Hitler. <P> The Impact of the Treaty of Versailles. The Treaty of Versailles was the Peace Settlement between the Allies and Germany at the end of the First World War. The German authorities had little choice but to accept the terms of the Treaty presented by 'the Big Three'. This section looks at some of the implications of the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. The financial impact of the Treaty. The Treaty of Versailles blamed Germany for the First World War. As a result of this Germany was also held accountable for the cost of the war and the Treaty dictated that compensation would have to be paid to the Allies. <P> A German perspective on the Treaty of Versailles. The fate of the Weimar Republic was shaped to a large extent by the Treaty of Versailles. Drafted in Paris in the opening months of 1919, the treaty was one of several multi-national agreements that formally ended World War I. The Paris peace conferences had a wide and complex array of tasks to perform. <P> It ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers. It was signed on 28 June 1919, exactly five years after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The other Central Powers on the German side of World War I were dealt with in separate treaties. Although the armistice, signed on 11 November 1918, ended the actual fighting, it took six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the peace treaty. <P> The Treaty of Versailles formally ended the state of war between Germany and the Allied Powers (also known as the Entente). It took six months of wrangling at the Paris Peace Conference to conclude the peace treaty. The Versailles Treaty was one of the most outrageous and predatory treaties in history. It was a blatant act of plunder perpetrated by a gang of robbers against a helpless, prostrate and bleeding Germany. <P> The Versailles Treaty, signed on June 28, 1919, was the peace settlement between Germany and the Allied Powers that officially ended World War I. The details of the Versailles Treaty had been debated and finalized at the Paris Peace Conference, which opened on January 18, 1919 - just over two months after the fighting on the Western Front ended. Although many diplomats from the Allied Powers participated, Germany was not invited to the conference. <P> Hang the Kaiser! Popular British newspaper slogan during the negotiation of the Treaty of Versailles. On 28 June 1919, the peace treaty that ended World War I was signed by Germany and the Allies at the Palace of Versailles near Paris. Allied interests were represented by the ‘Big Three’: British Prime Minister David Lloyd George, French Premier George Clemenceau and US President Woodrow Wilson. <P> Germany signed the Versailles Treaty under severe protest. The USA Congress refused to ratify the treaty. Many people in France and Britain were angry that there was no trial of the Kaiser or the other war leaders. The treaty devastated Germany politically and economically.

While all three types of hepatitis can cause similar symptoms, each virus is spread in different ways. Are gay and bisexual men at risk for viral hepatitis? <P> Infected individuals can spread the virus from 2 weeks before the symptoms begin to 2 weeks after symptoms end. However, an infected person who has no symptoms can still spread the virus. Unlike some other forms of viral hepatitis, hepatitis A does not cause long-term (chronic) damage and is usually not fatal. <P> Hepatitis C is a contagious liver disease that ranges in severity from a mild illness lasting a few weeks to a serious, lifelong illness that attacks the liver. It results from infection with the Hepatitis C virus (HCV), which is spread primarily through contact with the blood of an infected person.

what is helicoidal flow
|
<P> Spiralling or helicoidal flow is an omnipresent phenomenon in nature. As humans, we have the choice to consciously join this pattern of movement that can lead us into freedom. <P> Helicoidal flow is a cockscrew (spiral) movement of water responsible for moving eroded river load from the outer bank and then depositing much of it on the next inner bank of a river. Posted by Snippetseamstress at 8:33 AM 41 comments: Labels: bottom or subsidiary current, helicoidal flow, top current. It is associated with the presence of pools and riffles in the river bed. The erosion and deposition of river load by helicoidal flow is responsible for the creation of meanders. The top current hits against the river bank, undercutting and eroding material from it. <P> Helicoidal flow is the cork-screw-like flow of water in a meander. It is one example of a secondary flow. The helicoidal motion of the flow aids the processes of hydraulic action and corrasion on the outside of the meander, and sweeps sediment across the floor of the meander towards the inside of the meander, forming point bar deposits. <P> Helicoidal flow.

what are lats
|
<P> A National Academy of Sports Medicine answered. Lats is the abbreviated term for the latissimus dorsi, a large muscle located on the back side of the body. The lats get their name based on their location, which is the lateral (side) and dorsal (back) part of the human body. The lats attach to the pelvis, lower and mid back, and inside of the upper arm. <P> The Latissimus Dorsi muscles (also known as the Lats) are the largest muscles of the back. Being large, fan-shaped muscles, they are able to provide force in a wide range of body positions, e.g. leaning back to straight vertical and all points in between. <P> Use a weight machine. One of the most effective ways to work your lats is making use of a weight machine at your local gym. Exercises involving weight machines are great for the lats. 1 A weight machine is a kind of gym equipment where weights are attached to a bar that the user pulls up and down to help build muscle. <P> Latissimi dorsi are commonly known as lats , especially among bodybuilders. The latissimus dorsi is responsible for extension, adduction, transverse extension also known as horizontal abduction, flexion from an extended position, and (medial) internal rotation of the shoulder joint. <P> Great lat exercises are the cornerstone for building an impressive physique as the latissimus dorsi muscle is the largest and most powerful muscle in the back. It’s important to include exercises that focus on the lat muscle, as this helps maintain correct posture and keeps your body in proportion. <P> The latissimus dorsi, or lats, are the largest of the 3 muscles in your back. By performing specific exercises that target your lats, you can burn calories and boost your overall strength. Powerful lats also will improve the symmetry of your upper body and help you maintain proper posture. <P> This helps work more of your lats, rather than your biceps. Straighten your arms and let your body hang from the bar. You can keep your legs straight or bend your knees and cross your feet. Slowly pull your body up to the bar so that the top of your chest nearly touches the bar and your chin is over the bar.

what is hepatocyte growth factor
|
<P> Top 10 facts about the world. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a protein-coding gene involved in regulation of cellular growth, homeostasis and regeneration. The HGF gene is activated by binding onto a mesenchymal epithelial transition factor (MET) receptor. Hepatocyte growth factor is synonymous with hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) and is often referred to as HGF/SF in scientific literature. On a cellular level, HGF is a polypeptide excreted by mesenchymal cells that acts as a multi-functional cytokine on epithelial-originating cells <P> Hepatocyte growth factor regulates cell growth, cell motility, and morphogenesis by activating a tyrosine kinase signaling cascade after binding to the proto-oncogenic c-Met receptor. Hepatocyte growth factor is secreted by mesenchymal cells and acts as a multi-functional cytokine on cells of mainly epithelial origin. Its ability to stimulate mitogenesis, cell motility, and matrix invasion gives it a central role in angiogenesis, tumorogenesis, and tissue regeneration. We report that engagement of the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor c-Met by heart-produced HGF during priming in the lymph nodes instructs T cell cardiotropism, which was associated with a specialized homing signature (c-Met(+)CCR4(+)CXCR3(+)). <P> Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) is a paracrine cellular growth, motility and morphogenic factor. It is secreted by mesenchymal cells and targets and acts primarily upon epithelial cells and endothelial cells, but also acts on haemopoietic progenitor cells.

Hepatocyte growth factor is secreted by mesenchymal cells and acts as a multi-functional cytokine on cells of mainly epithelial origin. 1 Hepatocyte growth factor is essential for migration of myogenic cells and promotes their proliferation during the early periods of tongue morphogenesis in mouse embryos. 2 C/A polymorphism in intron 13 of the HGF gene is associated with susceptibility to essential hypertension in lean or female subjects. <P> hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a potent mitogen and inducer of hepatocyte proliferation, produced in the liver by cells other than hepatic cells and in many other organs by cells of the mesenchyme. It is also multifunctional and regulates cell growth and motility. hepatocyte growth factor. A cytokine monokine involved in immune and inflammatory responses. It is produced by platelets, fibroblasts, macrophages, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. It stimulates growth of hepatocytes and increases migration and motility of various epithelial and endothelial cells. <P> c-Met. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. c-Met, also called MET or hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MET gene (MET proto-oncogene, receptor tyrosine kinase), which earlier in the discovery process had also been called MNNG HOS transforming gene. The protein possesses tyrosine kinase activity. <P> Hepatocyte growth factor regulates cell growth, cell motility, and morphogenesis by activating a tyrosine kinase signaling cascade after binding to the proto-oncogenic c-Met receptor.

In the systematic study of crude drugs (a). origin, common names, biological source and family; (b). The Latin name of the plant or animal is called its botanical or zoological source. The family to which this plant or animal belongs is also mentioned, e.g. Vasaka leaves are obtained from Adhatoda vasica plant; family Acanthaceae. Vasaka leaves are included in the Indian pharmacopoeia and are called official leaves. <P> Click on the links below to visit each chart: Minerals | Vitamins | Fruits | Vegetables | Nuts & Seeds | Legumes | Proteins. Minerals are elements that originate in the soil and cannot be created by living things, such as plants and animals. Yet plants, animals and humans need minerals in order to be healthy. Plants absorb minerals from the soil, and animals get their minerals from the plants or other animals they eat. Most of the minerals in the human diet come directly from plants, such as fruits and vegetables, or indirectly from animal sources. Minerals may also be present in your drinking water, but this depends on where you live, and what kind of water you drink (bottled, tap). <P> over 55 years. Homeopathy: Plants, Animals and Minerals-A New Way of Understanding Materia Medica Share Judyth Reichenberg-Ullman ND, MSW © Everything from the natural world can be classed as animate or inanimate. The inanimate elements, salts and compounds can be loosely categorized as belonging to the mineral kingdom. Animate substances can can roughly divided into substances from the animal kingdom and substances from the plant kingdom. Since homeopathic remedies come from the natural world, they can also be categorized into the kingdoms of nature, plant, animal and mineral. People who need remedies from animal sources will have different characteristics and types of symptoms from people who need remedies from mineral or plant sources <P> Twenty five elements are recognized as essential components of plants, animals and man. Because these elements are considered essential to life, they could be called bioessential.. A few others, such as cobalt and the rare earth elements, could be included, but information on their roles is less exact. Table 1 below is intended to interrelate these essential minerals with brief descriptions of their roles, where known, in plants, animals and man. Deficient or adequate levels are provided only for plant growth. <P> Plant-Sourced Minerals are a purified-water extraction of soluble plant-derived minerals. The minerals are sourced from a prehistoric plant deposit called Senonian Vegetate. This vegetate is mineral-rich organic soil derived from plants and naturally protected from mineral depletion. <P> Thus for nutrition, humans eat plants and/or animals that eat plants, whereas plants can obtain their nutrients from the soil [4]. This process is commonly referred to as the food chain [5]. Unfortunately most mineral supplements contain minerals in the form referred to as ‘mineral salts’. When it comes to nutrition, plants and humans differ: a typical plant makes its own food from raw materials... A typical animal eats its food [1]. For plants, these raw materials include soil-based inorganic mineral salts [2]. <P> Human bodies require nutrition found in the form of plants, meat, milk, eggs and water, but all animals get their food directly or indirectly from plants, and all plants get their food from the soil. Therefore mineral deficient soil may be one of the greatest original sources of disease in the world today. When it comes to nutrition, plants and humans differ: a typical plant makes its own food from raw materials... A typical animal eats its food [1]. For plants, these raw materials include soil-based inorganic mineral salts [2]. <P> 1 Alkaloids are produced by a large variety of organisms, including bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals, and are part of the group of natural products (also called secondary metabolites). 2 Many alkaloids can be purified from crude extracts by acid-base extraction. 3 Many alkaloids are toxic to other organisms. Pharmacognosy is the study of medicinal drugs derived from plants or other natural sources. <P> Natural drugs obtained from plants and animals are called drugs of biological origin and are produced in the living cells of plants or animals. Pharmacognosy is the study of crude drugs obtained from plants, animals and mineral kingdom. Even though the science of pharmacognosy is practised since a very early period, the term pharmacognosy was first used by Seydler, a German scientist, in 1815 in his book Analecta Pharmacognostica. The Latin name of the plant or animal is called its botanical or zoological source. The family to which this plant or animal belongs is also mentioned, e.g. Vasaka leaves are obtained from Adhatoda vasica plant; family Acanthaceae. Vasaka leaves are included in the Indian pharmacopoeia and are called official leaves. <P> When humans eat plants or animals they are consuming minerals in those forms. Humans are not supposed to directly consume soil components [1]. With the exception of sodium chloride (common table salt), humans do not normally in any significant quantity consume minerals in the chemical forms known as mineral salts. When it comes to nutrition, plants and humans differ: a typical plant makes its own food from raw materials... A typical animal eats its food [1]. For plants, these raw materials include soil-based inorganic mineral salts [2].

what does whey protein do
|
<P> Whey protein is a mixture of globular proteins isolated from whey, the liquid material created as a by-product of cheese production. Whey protein is commonly marketed and ingested as a dietary supplement, and various health claims have been attributed to it in the alternative medicine community. Although whey proteins are responsible for some milk allergies, the major allergens in milk are the caseins. 1 Native whey protein, the purest form of whey protein which has been extracted from skim milk and not a by product of cheese production, produced as a concentrate and isolate. <P> What is whey protein, why do I need it, what is is made from and anything else you would like to know about whey protein is here! Whey Protein (aka lactalbumin) is the supplemental protein source of choice for many fitness enthusiasts. <P> Whey is left over when milk is coagulated during the process of cheese production, and contains everything that is soluble from milk after the pH is dropped to 4.6 during the coagulation process. It is a 5% solution of lactose in water, with some minerals and lactalbumin. 1 Native whey protein, the purest form of whey protein which has been extracted from skim milk and not a by product of cheese production, produced as a concentrate and isolate. <P> Protein powder can have both positive and negative impacts. Protein is a macronutrient essential for good health. It builds and maintains lean muscle mass, strengthens your immune system, repairs damaged cells and tissues, manufactures hormones and can function as an energy source when your dietary carbs are low. The protein in your diet can come from whole-food sources or from supplements such as protein powder. Before adding this type of supplement to your meal plan, however, it is helpful to understand both the positive and negative effects protein powder can have on you. <P> Whey protein is a complete protein source, which denotes that it contains all 9 of the essential amino acids (*more on why this is important in the “Benefits” section). In contrast to casein protein, whey protein remains readily soluble in liquid environments and over varying pH ranges. <P> A whey protein isolate (often whey isolate) is a dietary supplement and food ingredient created by separating components from milk. Whey is a by-product of the cheese-making process. Whey can be processed to yield whey protein in three forms: whey isolate, whey concentrate, or whey hydrolysate. The difference between the whey protein forms is the composition of the product, particularly the protein content. <P> Whey protein is a liquid byproduct of cheese production that is sold as a dietary supplement in protein powders and shakes. Whey protein used to be discarded by cheese manufacturers as a waste product. Pouring curds and whey into a sieve. The whey is the yellow translucent liquid. When a source of protein has all 9 essential amino acids, which are amino acids your body needs to get from food, that food is said to be a complete protein. Foods like meats, dairy, eggs and rare vegetable proteins such as quinoa are complete proteins. <P> Knowledge center. Milk is made of two proteins, casein and whey. Whey protein can be separated from the casein in milk or formed as a by-product of cheese making. Whey protein is considered a complete protein and contains all 9 essential amino acids and is low in lactose content <P> Photo Credit castillodominici/iStock/Getty Images. Whey protein supplements are popularly associated with bodybuilders and professional strength athletes. However, there is also some evidence that whey can provide physical benefits for people who exercise not at all or only recreationally. Every whey supplement has a different set of ingredients and nutritional information, however, and there is no guarantee that any will produce a certain effect.

<P> How to Plant Foxtail Lilies. When planting the foxtail lily bulb, choose a location in well-draining soil that has been enriched with compost or other organic matter. While adequate drainage is important with these plants, also keep in mind that they do not like overly dry situations either. Their tapered spikes of orange, yellow, pink or white flowers can add interest to mixed beds and borders. Unlike other lilies, the foxtail lily plant has unusual tuberous roots rather than a single foxtail lily bulb. Below you will find more on how to plant foxtail lilies and foxtail lily care. <P> Overview. Foxtail lilies--also called desert candles--are perennial bulbs that are not actually true lilies (Lilium), but members of the Eremurus family. Foxtail lilies bloom during the spring and sometimes early summer, and at full maturity, they can grow to be 3 to 7 feet tall. Foxtail lilies are considered hardy bulbs, best planted in the fall in USDA plant hardiness zones 6 to 9. <P> How to grow Eremurus, Foxtail Lily, Desert Candle. Eremurus are tuberous roots which are hardy down to zone 5. Plant eremurus perennial roots 6 inches deep, 12-15 apart in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Sandy soil enriched with compost is ideal, however, eremurus grows well in a wide range of soil types provided the drainage is good. Good drainage is especially important in the winter tim <P> Planting of foxtail lily flower usually takes place in autumn (around September). The tuberous roots, which are extremely brittle, should be planted about 4 inches deep with at least 2 to 3 feet of spacing between plants. For greater results, make the planting hole wide, leaving the bud or crown facing up. Their tapered spikes of orange, yellow, pink or white flowers can add interest to mixed beds and borders. Unlike other lilies, the foxtail lily plant has unusual tuberous roots rather than a single foxtail lily bulb. Below you will find more on how to plant foxtail lilies and foxtail lily care. <P> In early June, Eremurus (er-e-MEW-rus), perhaps the most spectacular bulbous plant of them all, takes its rightful place, center stage, in the English Walled Garden. Eremurus, commonly known as foxtail lily or desert candle, is a member of the lily family. Not a true bulb but a tuberous root, it stores its food in fleshy, starfish-shaped roots, not in stem or leaf tissue as with true bulbs. In early spring, straplike leaves emerge and form a rosette at the base of the plant. Plant Eremurus tubers in September in full sun and rich, well-draining soil. Supplement the soil with rotted compost or manure. To plant, open a 15-inch wide hole 6 inches deep in the prepared site. Pull up a shallow cone of soil in the middle. <P> By Nikki Phipps. Image by Patrick Quinn-Graham. Foxtail lilies make stunning garden plants, reaching heights of 6-7 feet tall. When in bloom, foxtail lilies are exquisite springtime show-stoppers. Read on for more information about foxtail lily bulbs and find out how to plant Eremurus bulbs in the garden. The foxtail lily dislikes drought; therefore, it shouldn’t be allowed to dry out. Good drainage is especially important in the winter time. Plant the tuberous roots in the fall approximately 4-6 inches deep with at least 2-3 feet of spacing between plants. For best results, make a wide, shallow hole. <P> Choose the proper site and plant tubers in the fall. Eremus, or foxtail lily, prefers full sun for it to bloom well; however, it also needs to be sheltered from high winds. Place it at the back of the border. It can also be planted at the end of a garden path as long as it is protected from damaging winds.

who invented light bulb
|
<P> Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and the long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. More significant than the number of Edison's patents was the widespread impact of his inventions: electric light and power utilities, sound recording, and motion pictures all established major new industries world-wide. Edison's inventions contributed to mass communication and, in particular, telecommunications. <P> Early Light Bulbs. In 1802, Humphry Davy invented the first electric light. He experimented with electricity and invented an electric battery. When he connected wires to his battery and a piece of carbon, the carbon glowed, producing light. His invention was known as the Electric Arc lamp. Thomas Edison and the “first” light bulb. In 1878, Thomas Edison began serious research into developing a practical incandescent lamp and on October 14, 1878, Edison filed his first patent application for Improvement In Electric Lights. <P> The first practical incandescent light bulb. Edison and his team of researchers in Edison's laboratory in Menlo Park, N.J., tested more than 3,000 designs for bulbs between 1878 and 1880. In November 1879, Edison filed a patent for an electric lamp with a carbon filament. Early research & developments. The story of the light bulb begins long before Edison patented the first commercially successful bulb in 1879. In 1800, Italian inventor Alessandro Volta developed the first practical method of generating electricity, the voltaic pile. <P> Incandescent Bulbs Light the Way. Long before Thomas Edison patented -- first in 1879 and then a year later in 1880 -- and began commercializing his incandescent light bulb, British inventors were demonstrating that electric light was possible with the arc lamp. <P> EnchantedLearning.com The Invention of the Light Bulb: Davy, Swan and Edison. Much later, in 1860, the English physicist Sir Joseph Wilson Swan (1828-1914) was determined to devise a practical, long-lasting electric light. He found that a carbon paper filament worked well, but burned up quickly. <P> by Tomo · November 4, 2010. The first light bulb was invented in 1809 by Sir Humphry Davy. He started working on his project in 1801. He ran electric current through two platinum rods which could not stay for long. He too started his power company like Edison. The idea of using high-resistant filament which he used was Edison’s. So Edison sued him for the same. At last they resolved and joined hands to form the biggest company for producing light bulbs in the world called Edison-Swan United. <P> No, it wasn’t Thomas Edison. Light bulbs were in use long before Edison applied for the patent in 1879. British inventor Humphry Davy invented an incandescent light bulb in 1801 and created the “arc lamp” in 1809. In 1835, Scottish inventor James Bowman Lindsay demonstrated a constant electric light in Dundee. In 1840, British scientist Warren de la Rue also demonstrated a light bulb. In 1872, Russian engineer Alexander Lodygin invented an incandescent light bulb for which was awarded a Russian patent in 1874. In 1877, William E. Sawyer developed a incandescent light in partnership with Albon Man. <P> Credit: View full size image. View full size image.

average cost of independent living facilities
|
<P> Just as the cost of real estate varies by geographic area, assisted living costs also vary nationwide. In the 2015 Cost of Care Survey conducted by Genworth Financial, assisted living showed an increase of 2.86% compared to the 2014 costs and the national median monthly rate is $3,600. Residents of assisted living communities can typically expect a 4.28% annual increase in their base rate. The table below shows the range of monthly assisted living costs by state in 2015* for a one-bedroom, single-occupancy assisted living apartment. <P> The average cost for a private one-bedroom apartment in an assisted living residence is over $3,000 per month, according to research compiled by several nonprofit senior living organizations, including the Assisted Living Federation of America. <P> Cost of Texas Assisted Living Facilities. According to the 2015 Genworth Financial cost of care survey, the average cost of assisted living in Texas is $3,545 per month. The monthly base rate for Texas assisted living is typically higher when compared to neighboring states. Texas is also less expensive compared to the national average. This cost is the base cost for a one-bedroom assisted living unit in Texas. <P> Costs. The cost for care varies widely depending on the type of facility. The national average cost for basic services in an assisted living facility is $41,724 per year* and in a nursing home, it's $78,110 per year for a semi-private room* and $87, 235 per year for a private room.*. <P> Again, costs vary by state, but the average monthly cost for an assisted living center in most states is between $1000 and $3000 per month. Monthly costs in Alaska, Hawaii, Vermont, Washington D.C. and Wyoming are higher than average, sometimes up to $5000 per month. In instances where high costs are a concern or prohibitive, some families relocate loved ones to facilities in other more affordable regions to reduce costs. The table below breaks out some key cost data points, including the low, high and average cost of assisted living for all fifty states for 2013. <P> According to the 2015 Genworth Financial cost of care survey, the average cost of assisted living in Texas is $3,545 per month. The monthly base rate for Texas assisted living is typically higher when compared to neighboring states. Texas is also less expensive compared to the national average. This cost is the base cost for a one-bedroom assisted living unit in Texas. <P> Independent senior living communities are the least expensive of the three primary senior living options. Monthly costs vary significantly by community type, size of apartment, location and services offered. The average total cost for a U.S. one bedroom independent senior living apartment is $2,750 per month. In 2011, the average rate for a private bedroom at a U.S. nursing home was $239 per day, or nearly $7,270 per month. Average rate for a private bedroom at an assisted living community was $3,477 per month <P> Assisted Living Costs by State. The Genworth 2015 Cost of Care Survey is the most comprehensive study of its kind. Genworth Financial surveyed approximatey 15% of assisted living communities. The monthly cost is for a one-bedroom unit in an assisted living facility. The costs of assisted living care depend on the level of service a resident requires. The 2010 CDC National Survey of Residential Care Facilities provides some treasured insights into the costs of assisted living, but also how facilities charge residents. <P> The national median monthly rate for a one-bedroom unit in an assisted living facility is $3,500, according to the 2014 Cost of Care Survey released in April by Genworth Financial Inc. of Richmond, Virginia. That's $42,000 per year, an increase of 1.45 percent over 2013. <P> Genworth Financial notes that the costs of assisted living has gone up more than nursing homes, adult day care and home care. Many times, residents that would go into a nursing home can use an assisted living facility instead. They argue that the rise in cost is just a bit more than average inflation. The costs of assisted living care depend on the level of service a resident requires. The 2010 CDC National Survey of Residential Care Facilities provides some treasured insights into the costs of assisted living, but also how facilities charge residents.

<P> Medical Definition of CAROTENOID. : any of various usually yellow to red pigments (as carotenes) found widely in plants and animals and characterized chemically by a long aliphatic polyene chain composed of eight isoprene units. — carotenoid adjective <P> Description. The term carotenoid refers to a family of about 600 different plant pigments that function as antioxidants. The yellow, orange, and many of the red pigments in fruits, vegetables, and plant materials are usually carotenoids. The carotenoids are red, orange, and yellow pigments synthesized by all green plants and some microbes. They have an essential function in photosynthesis and in attracting the attention of animals. <P> Beta carotene: A vitamin that acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells against oxidation damage. Beta carotene is converted by the body to vitamin A. Food sources of beta carotene include vegetables such as carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach and other leafy green vegetables; and fruit such as cantaloupes and apricots. Excessive carotene in the diet can color the skin yellow, a condition called carotenemia <P> • CAROTENOID (noun). The noun CAROTENOID has 1 sense: 1. any of a class of highly unsaturated yellow to red pigments occurring in plants and animals. Familiarity information: CAROTENOID used as a noun is very rare. Dictionary entry details. Hyponyms (each of the following is a kind of carotenoid): carotene (yellow or orange-red fat-soluble pigments in plants). lycopene (carotenoid that makes tomatoes red; may lower the risk of prostate cancer). beta-carotene (an isomer of carotene that is found in dark green and dark yellow fruits and vegetables). <P> Very few animals can synthesize carotenoids, but, when ingested, these pigments do affect the color of various animal tissues such as egg yolk and body fat, lending them yellow and orange colorations. Note: The word chromoplast is sometimes used to refer to any pigmented plastid, even a chloroplast. Chromoplasts (/KROME-ə-plasts/) are plastids, other than chloroplasts, that produce and store pigments. Found in flowers, leaves, roots and ripe fruits, they contain carotenoids (lipid-soluble pigments ranging from yellow to red in color), which lend color to the plant tissues containing them. <P> © A Dictionary of Biology 2004, originally published by Oxford University Press 2004. carotenoid Any of a group of yellow, orange, red, or brown pigments chemically related to terpenes. Carotenoids are responsible for the characteristic colour of many plant organs, such as ripe tomatoes, carrots, and autumn leaves. The carotenoids are red, orange, and yellow pigments synthesized by all green plants and some microbes. They have an essential function in photosynthesis and in attracting the attention of animals. <P> 2. carotene-yellow or orange-red fat-soluble pigments in plants. carotenoid-any of a class of highly unsaturated yellow to red pigments occurring in plants and animals.

oogenesis process is in
|
<P> 10 most extreme places on Earth. Oogenesis is the production of an ovum or egg cell, the female gamete or sex cell. It is one type of gametogenesis, or sex cell production, the other being the male process of spermatogenesis. Oogenesis happens in all sexually reproductive species, and it includes all of the immature stages of the ovum. <P> Explanations. Spermatogenesis and Oogenesis. Meiosis, the process by which gametes are formed, can also be called gametogenesis, literally “creation of gametes.” The specific type of meiosis that forms sperm is called spermatogenesis, while the formation of egg cells, or ova, is called oogenesis. Just like spermatogenesis, oogenesis involves the formation of haploid cells from an original diploid cell, called a primary oocyte, through meiosis. The female ovaries contain the primary oocytes. There are two major differences between the male and female produc <P> Oogenesis consists of several sub-processes: oocytogenesis, ootidogenesis, and finally maturation to form an ovum (oogenesis proper). Folliculogenesis is a separate sub-process that accompanies and supports all three oogenetic sub-processes. Oogenesis starts with the process of developing oogonia, which occurs via the transformation of primordial follicles into primary oocytes, a process called oocytogenesis. Oocytogenesis is complete either before or shortly after birth <P> Introduction. Oogenesis is the process of producing the female gametes, the Ovum, from the primordial germ cells. The majority of the steps in oogenesis, up to the point of producing primary oocytes, occur pre-natally. <P> Oogenesis is the name of the process by which female egg cells or oocytes develop to create an ovum, or egg cell. These cells go through a three step process; oogonium t … o a primary oocyte, secondary oocyte, and finally an ovum. The whole process occurs in the female ovaries. In ascaris, the oocyte does not even begin meiosis until the sperm touches it. Oogenesis is the process in which the primary oocyte turns to an ovum undergoing meiosis. At first there is a diploid oocyte called the primary oocyte. Meiosis I occurs in which synapsis occurs and tetrads form and crossing over as well and this becomes the secondary oocyte and the first polar body <P> Oogenesis, ovogenesis, or ooegenesis /oögenesis.ˌoʊ/ əˈdʒɛnɨsɪs is the creation of an (ovum egg). Cell it is the female form of; gametogenesis the male equivalent is. Spermatogenesis it involves the development of the various stages of the immature. ovum Oogenesis starts with the process of developing oogonia, which occurs via the transformation of primordial follicles into primary oocytes, a process called oocytogenesis. Oocytogenesis is complete either before or shortly after birth. <P> The Ovum. Oogenesis is the process by which the female gametes, or ova, are created. The female gamete is called an ovum. Sometimes people will refer to female gametes as eggs, but the term egg can include more than one stage of development, and the definition of an egg also changes depending on the type of organism. Lesson Summary. In summary, oogenesis is the process by which the female gametes, or ova, are created. The female gamete is called an ovum. The diploid germ cells that have the potential to develop into ova are called oogonia.

<P> DHA and the heart. DHA is one of the omega-3 fatty acids that makes fish oils so beneficial for heart health. It has beneficial effects on cholesterol and triglyceride levels and may also have beneficial effects on blood pressure and heart rhythm. Ideally we should all eat fish at least twice a week. <P> DHA is one of the omega-3 fatty acids that makes fish oils so beneficial for heart health. It has beneficial effects on cholesterol and triglyceride levels and may also have beneficial effects on blood pressure and heart rhythm. Ideally we should all eat fish at least twice a week. <P> Let’s start with the four main omega 3 fatty acids found in food – DHA, EPA, DPA and ALA (alpha-lenolenic acid). While ALA is an essential fatty acid and vitally important, it’s only one of 8 different omega 3 fatty acids that are found in foods. <P> Taking fish oils is one way to get EPA and DHA into your diet. Omega-3 fatty acids contain a rich about of these two fats. However, the foods containing EPA and DHA are important as well. You'd like to try get more omega-3 into your diet. Because the ratio of omega-6 and omega-3's are usually too high. A healthy ratio of omega-6, to omega-3 is between 1:1 to 4:1. The first food source to find a high amount of EPA and DHA is actual fish. Fish oils contain omega-3, so obviously actual fish will. Cod is a great source of omega-3. Not only does it contain a high amount of omega-3, but a good amount of vitamin D as well. Very healthy for the production on stronger bones. <P> DHA is mainly found in animal products such as fish, eggs and meats. Oily fish, such as mackerel, herring, salmon, trout, sardines, pilchards, are the richest dietary source of EFAs, containing 10 to 100 times more DHA than non-marine food sources such as nuts, seeds, wholegrains and dark green, leafy vegetables. <P> Salmon, tuna, halibut, and shrimp all contain a very high mount of EPA and DHA fats. A lot of oils contain a good amounts of omega-3. Flaxseed oil contains that largest amount of omega-3 fatty acids. Flaxseed supplements are available, because of the high amount of omega-3 found in them.

what is optical flow pattern psychology
|
<P> a term that is used to describe the aggregate movement of the elements that are in a visual scene as the person moves through it. FLOW PATTERN: The flow pattern is seen as we move through a scene.. No related posts. <P> The direction and magnitude of optic flow at each location is represented by the direction and length of each arrow. Optical flow or optic flow is the pattern of apparent motion of objects, surfaces, and edges in a visual scene caused by the relative motion between an observer (an eye or a camera) and the scene. An optical flow sensor is a vision sensor capable of measuring optical flow or visual motion and outputting a measurement based on optical flow. Various configurations of optical flow sensors exist. One configuration is an image sensor chip connected to a processor programmed to run an optical flow algorithm <P> The term optical flow is also used by roboticists, encompassing related techniques from image processing and control of navigation including motion detection, object segmentation, time-to-contact information, focus of expansion calculations, luminance, motion compensated encoding, and stereo disparity measurement. An optical flow sensor is a vision sensor capable of measuring optical flow or visual motion and outputting a measurement based on optical flow. Various configurations of optical flow sensors exist. One configuration is an image sensor chip connected to a processor programmed to run an optical flow algorithm <P> Optic flow defined. The term “optic flow” refers to a visual phenomena that you experience every day. Essentially, optic flow is the apparent visual motion that you experience as you move through the world. Suppose you sitting in a car or a train, and are looking out the window. You see trees, the ground, buildings, etc., appear to move backwards. There are clear mathematical relationships between the magnitude of the optic flow and where the object is in relation to you. If you double the speed which you travel, the optic flow you see will also double. If an object is brought twice as close to you, the optic flow will again double. <P> Optic flow is the perceived visual motion of objects as the observer moves relative to them. To an observer driving a car, a sign on the side of the road would move from the center of his vision to the side, growing as he approached. If he had 360 degree vision, this sign would proceed to move quickly past his side to his back, where it would shrink. This motion of the sign is its optic flow. This allows a person to judge how close he is to certain objects, and how quickly he is approaching <P> Optic flow is defined as the change of structured light in the image, e.g. on the retina or the camera’s sensor, due to a relative motion between the eyeball or camera and the scene. In the literature, the motion field is often confounded with the optic flow, which is defined by the temporal change of the registered patterns of light. The motion field as analytic model was formulated for a pinhole camera in locomotion. <P> Definitions of optic flow. Optic flow is defined as the change of structured light in the image, e.g. on the retina or the camera’s sensor, due to a relative motion between the eyeball or camera and the scene. Further definitions from the literature highlight different properties of optic flow. In the literature, the motion field is often confounded with the optic flow, which is defined by the temporal change of the registered patterns of light. The motion field as analytic model was formulated for a pinhole camera in locomotion. <P> In a bio-inspired context retinal flow is the change of structured patterns of light on the retina that lead to an impression of movement of the visual imagery projected onto the retina. Figure 1 a depicts the production of retinal optic flow for the displacements of two exemplary visual features. In the literature, the motion field is often confounded with the optic flow, which is defined by the temporal change of the registered patterns of light. The motion field as analytic model was formulated for a pinhole camera in locomotion. <P> The concept of optical flow was introduced by the American psychologist James J. Gibson in the 1940s to describe the visual stimulus provided to animals moving through the world. An optical flow sensor is a vision sensor capable of measuring optical flow or visual motion and outputting a measurement based on optical flow. Various configurations of optical flow sensors exist.

what age does a puppy get obedience training
|
<P> Email Article. Some people believe that young puppies (those less than 16 weeks of age) should not be exposed to any sort of a puppy training program. They feel that people should be using this time to simply allow the puppy time to get acquainted with her new home and family. <P> Formal obedience training – puppy training in a class situation – can start anywhere from 9 to 12 weeks of age. Most schools like to see the pup receive a series of 2 vaccinations given before starting in a class – for the pup’s protection, as well as the protection of all other pups in the class. TRAINING of your puppy – the stuff you teach them at home – should start the DAY you bring your puppy home! This does not mean training needs to be intensive right away. Training at this stage should be done in many little lessons, in short spans of time (5-10 minutes per session). <P> Age. Two common questions people have is Can I start training my puppy? and Can my older dog do agility?. The answer is yes to both questions, within reason. To compete in agility your dog needs to be at least a year old, but you can start to train your puppy earlier than that. <P> Your dog is ready to learn when he is very young. Even puppies who are 10 or 12 weeks old can learn to sit and shake hands. At this age your teaching should be gentle and fun. Many trainers offer puppy classes for pups who are as young as 10 weeks old. This is great socialization where pups learn to play well with all kinds of other dogs. Your puppy can start learning very early. But by 3-4 months old, you should plan on teaching him some fun commands and tricks. A young puppy is just like a baby. This is easy to remember when your dog is little, but when he grows to be 75 pounds and is only 6 months old, this may be harder to believe. But dogs are really babies until they are about a year old. <P> The age of 7 weeks until 16 weeks is the Critical Socialization or Learning stage for your dog. Habits that your dog picks up at this age are going to stay with her all though her life. This age is the cradle for basic behavior patterns in your dog. Dog training is a kind of insurance whereby you can have a well-adjusted and well-behaved dog when she grows up. The most important dog-training question is when to start training. There are no set rules that define an appropriate age for dog training. <P> When to Begin. You can begin both happenstance training and obedience training with your dog at around six weeks-of age. To be sure, the period that extends from the sixth week to the twelfth week of your dog's life is prime time for incidental training. No need to worry about that. On the other hand, you can do serious harm to your dog's personality and to his ability to function in the world of humans, as well as to your relationship with him, if you to use the wrong approach, especially if you use a harsh training regimen with a puppy. <P> Obedience Training is one of the best things you can do for your dog or puppy... and yourself. Obedience training doesn't solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want her to do. Now go get the leash so you can go for a walk. Sit when the door is opened, sit again when the door is closed. And so on. Be sure that obedience training infiltrates your dog's favorite activities and that your dog's favorite activities infiltrates training. <P> Socialization should begin as soon as you get your puppy and often this means at 7 weeks of age. Puppies naturally accept new people, other species and introduction to new situations during the socialization period which occurs between 7 and 14 to 16 weeks of age. Formal dog training has traditionally been delayed until 6 months of age. Actually, this juvenile stage is a very poor time to start. The dog is learning from every experience and delaying training means missed opportunities for the dog to learn how you would like him to behave. <P> Some training can begin as soon as the puppy can open its eyes and walk. Young puppies have short attention spans but you can expect them to begin to learn simple obedience commands such as “sit,” “down,” and “stay,” as young as 7 to 8 weeks of age. Formal dog training has traditionally been delayed until 6 months of age. Actually, this juvenile stage is a very poor time to start. The dog is learning from every experience and delaying training means missed opportunities for the dog to learn how you would like him to behave. <P> Obedience training is not to teach dogs to do tricks or competition excercises, it's to train dogs to be obedient, to do what they're told to do. It covers a wide range of lessons a dog can learn, including tricks, family manners, show ring exercises, and skills demonstrations.

what is the continental shelf
|
<P> The Continental Shelf is the gently sloping undersea plain between a continent and the deep ocean. The continental shelf is an extension of the continent's landmass under the ocean. Much of the continental shelf was exposed dry land during glacial periods. During interglacial periods, like today, the shelf is submerged under relatively shallow waters. The continental shelf extends outward to the continental slope and continental rise, where the deep ocean truly begins, ultimately leading to the abyssal plain. The figure below is a schematic diagram of the continental shelf. <P> The continental shelf is located around the edges of the continent where the land drops off into the ocean. It is not necessarily the point where the shore meets the water but … the point where the ground drops suddenly and steeply into the ocean depths. A continental shelf is the flat or gently sloping land that lies submerged around the edges of a continent and that extends from the shoreline out to the continental slope. <P> The Outer Continental Shelf consists of the submerged lands, subsoil, and seabed in a specified zone up to 200 nautical miles or more from the U.S. coastline. The Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) is regulated by the U.S. Federal government through the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act. The continental shelf extends outward to the continental slope and continental rise, where the deep ocean truly begins, ultimately leading to the abyssal plain. The figure below is a schematic diagram of the continental shelf. <P> Defining the U.S. Extended Continental Shelf. The process to determine the outer limits of a State’s ECS requires the collection and analysis of data that describe the depth, shape, and geophysical characteristics of the seabed and sub-sea floor. Particularly important is bathymetric and sediment thickness data. The U.S. Extended Continental Shelf Task Force, an interagency body headed by the U.S. Department of State, coordinates the work to define the limits of the U.S. continental shelf. <P> The continental shelf is an underwater landmass which extends from a continent, resulting in an area of relatively shallow water known as a shelf sea. Much of the shelves were exposed during glacial periods and interglacial periods. The shelf surrounding an island is known as an insular shelf. The continental margin, between the continental shelf and the abyssal plain, comprises a steep continental slope followed by the flatter continental rise. Sediment from the continent above cascades down the slope and accumulates as a pile of sediment at the base of the slope, called the continental rise. The shelf area is commonly subdivided into the inner continental shelf, mid continental shelf, and outer continental shelf, each with their specific geomorphology and marine biology. The character of the shelf changes dramatically at the shelf break, where the continental slope begins. <P> The continental shelf edge is an area that is located at the edge of an underwater landmass. This landmass extends out from a continent and has a relatively shallow area o … f water which is often referred to as the shelf sea. A continental shelf is the flat or gently sloping land that lies submerged around the edges of a continent and that extends from the shoreline out to the continental slope. <P> The definition of the continental shelf and criteria for the establishment of its outer limits. The definition of the continental shelf and the criteria by which a coastal State may establish the outer limits of its continental shelf are set out in article 76 of the Convention. <P> Continental shelf. The continental shelf is a gently sloping and relatively flat extension of a continent that is covered by the oceans. Seaward, the shelf ends abruptly at the shelf break, the boundary that separates the shelf from the continental slope. The shelf occupies only 7% of the total ocean floor <P> The continental shelf is an undersea extension of a continent that can stretch a great distance out to sea in some cases. In some instances, the continental shelf is very short, as is the case in subduction zones where one tectonic plate is being sucked below another. A well known example can be found in the waters off the coast of Chile. In other cases, extension stretches for many miles (or kilometers) out to sea.

<P> Medical Definition of LIGAMENT. 1. : a tough band of tissue that serves to connect the articular extremities of bones or to support or retain an organ in place and is usually composed of coarse bundles of dense white fibrous tissue parallel or closely interlaced, pliant, and flexible, but not extensible. 2. Full Definition of LIGAMENT. 1. : a tough fibrous band of tissue connecting the articular extremities of bones or supporting an organ in place. 2. — lig·a·men·tous \-ˈmen-təs\ adjective. See ligament defined for English-language learners. <P> Noun. 1. ligament-a sheet or band of tough fibrous tissue connecting bones or cartilages or supporting muscles or organs. connective tissue-tissue of mesodermal origin consisting of e.g. collagen fibroblasts and fatty cells; supports organs and fills spaces between them and forms tendons and ligaments. <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In anatomy, a ligament is the fibrous connective tissue that connects bones to other bones and is also known as articular ligament, articular larua, fibrous ligament, or true ligament. Ligament can also refer to: 1 Peritoneal ligament: a fold of peritoneum or other membranes. Ligaments connect bones to other bones to form joints, while tendons connect bone to muscle. Some ligaments limit the mobility of articulations, or prevent certain movements altogether. Capsular ligaments are part of the articular capsule that surrounds synovial joints. <P> Knee ligaments: Ligaments are strong, elastic bands of tissue that connect bone to bone. They provide strength and stability to the joint. Four ligaments connect the femur (the bone in the thigh) with the tibia (the larger bone in the lower leg): <P> Ligaments are bundles of connective tissue that connect one bone to an adjacent bone. The basic building blocks of a ligament are collagen fibers. These fibers are very strong, flexible, and resistant to damage from pulling or compressing stresses. Outside of the articular capsule are ligaments called extracapsular ligaments. They function to hold the bones in place, provide stability, and prevent dislocation injuries.

It was created in 1913, with the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act. <P> The Fed, as it is commonly called, regulates the U.S. monetary and financial system. The Federal Reserve System is composed of a central governmental agency in Washington, D.C. (the Board of Governors) and twelve regional Federal Reserve Banks in major cities throughout the United States. Next Up. <P> History and Purpose of the Fed. Before the Federal Reserve was founded, the nation was plagued with financial crises. At times, these crises led to panics in which people raced to their banks to withdraw their deposits. Banks needed a source of emergency reserves to prevent the panics and resulting runs from driving them out of business. A particularly severe panic in 1907 resulted in bank runs that wreaked havoc on the fragile banking system and ultimately led Congress in 1913 to write the Federal Reserve Act. <P> Main article: History of central banking in the United States. The Federal Reserve System is the third central banking system in United States history. The First Bank of the United States (1791–1811) and the Second Bank of the United States (1817–1836) each had a 20-year charter. In its final form, the Federal Reserve Act represented a compromise among three political groups. Most Republicans (and the Wall Street bankers) favored the Aldrich Plan that came out of Jekyll Island. <P> DEFINITION of '1913 Federal Reserve Act'. The 1913 U.S. legislation that created the current Federal Reserve System. The Federal Reserve Act intended to establish a form of economic stability through the introduction of the Central Bank, which would be in charge of monetary policy, into the United States. The Federal Reserve Act is perhaps one of the most influential laws concerning the U.S. financial system. Next Up. <P> The Federal Reserve System, often referred to as the Federal Reserve or simply the Fed, is the central bank of the United States. It was created by the Congress to provide the nation with a safer, more flexible, and more stable monetary and financial system. The Federal Reserve was created on December 23, 1913, when President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act into law. <P> 1.

how old should a male dog be for breeding
|
<P> For males, the proper age is at least 1 year old. The age at which sperm starts to be produced by male dogs is 7 to 8 months and giving a leeway until the age of 1, ensures the sperm strong enough to reach the female's eggs. Studs are in their prime from the age of 1.5 to 5 years old. Size-With breeding, the female should always be larger than the male. Because the Chihuahua is so small, when a female is going to be matched up with a male, the male should be under 4 pounds (1.81 kg). Also, the male's parents should be between 4 and 5 pounds (1.81 kg to 2.26 kg) . <P> A male dog, (stud) can go through puberty between 5 and 12 months of age. If your dog has not reached sexual maturity by 12 months, talk to your vet. The age varies by breed with smaller dogs maturing earlier than larger breeds. A male can be sexually viable as early as 5 months. Watch your puppy around females in heat to prevent copulation. AKC requires that your dog be less than 12 years old to register a litter. I think that a bitch should be retired by 8 years old at the latest, optimally around 5 years of age. Every dog is different, so you should talk with your vet about your dogs’ health and age. A stud is really never TOO old to copulate. <P> A male dog can mate when he's 6 months and older. For females, it's best to wait until they are 2 years old. That way there is less of a chance of miscarrage and she'll have m … ore time to mature and be physically ready for puppies. Professional (& responsible) breeders sometimes let their male dogs first sire a litter at 1- 1/2 years old, but most wait because they want to get their dogs OFA & CERF resu … lts before breeding. <P> Right age for allowing breeding. Males like the female dogs attain puberty at different ages. Different breeds reach maturity at different times with the smaller breeds attaining it at a much younger age. The average age for reaching puberty is around 6-12 months of age, depending on the type of breed. <P> The AKC will not recognize a litter sired from a male that is under 7 months of age or over 12 years old unless special documentation is provided. You may find this site helpful if you are considering breeding. http://www.k9web.com/dog-faqs/breeding.html. I hope you find this information helpful. Before breeding your dog you should get the dog health tested for any potential diseases prevalent in the breed. This helps ensure healthy puppies. Different breeds have different health problems associated with them. In many breeds Hip Dysplasia is a problem and is generally tested at 24 months. <P> A female dog, (bitch) can begin puberty around 6 months of age. If she has not had her first heat, or cycle, by 12 months of age, talk to your vet. The bitch will typically come into heat twice a year after her first heat. AKC requires that your dog be less than 12 years old to register a litter. I think that a bitch should be retired by 8 years old at the latest, optimally around 5 years of age. Every dog is different, so you should talk with your vet about your dogs’ health and age. A stud is really never TOO old to copulate. <P> Breeding Dogs: The Tie. Male dogs can start to have sperm at seven months old, but ten months is more common. Young dogs do not have quality sperm. Almost all dogs will have sperm by one year. Stud dogs are at their prime between 18 months and 4 years old (or 5), after that, the quality of the sperm starts to lessen, and the ability to penetrate eggs, lessens. By 10 years old, most stud dogs do not produce sperm that will impregnate a bitch. A tie is a natural phenomenon of dog breeding in which the bulbus glandis of the male's penis swells inside the bitch's vagina <P> This is a subjective question that really depends on the breed. Large breeds need to be at least, 3 years old while smaller breeds should be around 2 years old. The age is a serious consideration because the younger the animal the less developed their body systems and bones are. Professional (& responsible) breeders sometimes let their male dogs first sire a litter at 1- 1/2 years old, but most wait because they want to get their dogs OFA & CERF resu … lts before breeding. <P> If you have a male dog and are thinking of allowing your dog to mate, bear a few things in mind before you go ahead. If you do not have a high pedigree of dog and are not interested in the business of selling the puppies that you get from breeding, it is better to have your dog neutered rather than allowing it to mate. Males like the female dogs attain puberty at different ages. Different breeds reach maturity at different times with the smaller breeds attaining it at a much younger age. The average age for reaching puberty is around 6-12 months of age, depending on the type of breed.

what kind of barrels does Tabasco use

<P> Tabasco recipes. Tabasco is the name and trademark of a range of hot, spicy chilli sauces made in the US state of Louisiana. The original Tabasco sauce is fiery red and made from the tabasco variety of chilli pepper. It's combined with vinegar and salt and matured in oak barrels. Other varieties include a milder green Tabasco sauce made from jalapeno jalapeño peppers and green. peppers <P> How We Make Original Red Sauce. The pepper sauce that Edmund McIlhenny created in 1868 on Avery Island is much the same TABASCO ® Sauce that is produced today, on that very same site. The basic recipe, the process by which it’s made, and the ingredients remain virtually unchanged. <P> Edmund McIlhenny was given seeds of Capsicum frutescens peppers that came from Mexico or Central America, and he first planted them on Avery Island, Louisiana, over 140 years ago. Today, just as then, when the peppers reach the perfect shade of deep red and are at their juiciest, they are carefully picked by hand. <P> This spring I went to Avery Island, Louisiana, to see how Tabasco pepper sauce is made. Avery Island isn't really an island, but more of a dry mound (a salt dome) surrounded by wetlands. It's about 165 feet high and that makes it the tallest point in the Gulf Coast. <P> The one ingredient that doesn’t appear on the label but should is “time.” Tabasco sauce’s deep flavor comes from having fermented in white oak barrels for three years. While reproducing the exact flavor of Tabasco sauce is difficult to do, you can approximate it in your kitchen using your own homegrown hot peppers. <P> The peppers of course. While other hot sauce brands use Tabasco peppers in their blends, Tabasco is the only hot sauce to use 100% Tabasco peppers. Peppers are grown in central and south America, as well as on Avery Island. It's a painstaking process. <P> Sure, I love lots of hot sauces, but for me the alpha and omega of pepper sauce is Tabasco. There’s something about it that is more than just heat and vinegar, something more refined and mellow.
