what age should a puppy be neutered
|
<P> Spay ing and neutering puppies is the responsible thing to do, and it's important to know when to neuter a puppy. When love is in the air, the dogs know it. Girl pups mature more quickly than you might think. They can become pregnant as early as five or six months of age, and most dogs can produce two litters a year. For many years, the recommended spay/neuter age was six to nine months. When a puppy’s future involves performance competition, ask your veterinarian and breeder about timing. <P> Many shelters neuter puppies when they reach eight weeks of age—or two pounds in weight—before they are placed for adoption. These babies recover more quickly from the surgery than adult animals. They will grow just as much, and sometimes a bit taller, than if fixed later in life. For many years, the recommended spay/neuter age was six to nine months. When a puppy’s future involves performance competition, ask your veterinarian and breeder about timing. <P> Adult dogs can be neutered at any age, but the best time is before sexual maturity. For many years, the recommended spay/neuter age was six to nine months. When a puppy’s future involves performance competition, ask your veterinarian and breeder about timing. Delaying for a couple of months may allow the pup to attain better physical development important to these demands <P> It’s also better for your pet’s health. And it’s better for you because it will make your life easier if your pet is spayed or neutered. Animals can be miserable -- and make you miserable -- when they are in heat. And then there’s always the problem of what to do with the puppies. There’s also the financial side. All the medical evidence suggests a dog should be spayed before her first heat. It’s much easier for her then because it’s a much easier surgery at that time. And the problem with letting your dog have a litter is you’ve just instantly contributed to the pet overpopulation problem. <P> A very legitimate concern, pet overpopulation, has been the primary driving force behind 30 years of national and local spay/neuter campaigns. When it comes to deciding at what age a companion animal should be sterilized, the standard for most spay/neuter campaigns has been sooner rather than later. If you own an intact pet, I can offer a general guideline for timing a spay/neuter procedure. Your dog should be old enough to be a balanced individual both physically and mentally. This balance isn't achieved until a dog has reached at least one year of age. <P> 1 Once male pups are eight weeks old, it's likely that their testicles have fully descended, which is a necessary condition for performing the surgery. 2 According to the ASPCA, spaying and neutering can occur as early as eight weeks. Reasons for Early Neutering. Neutering dogs at an early age can actually keep some dogs from developing negative behavior patterns. Issues may include: 1 Aggressive behavior in some male dogs once they become sexually mature. 2 Territorial marking can be another problematic issue may occur in dogs that haven't been neutered <P> Rating Newest Oldest. If you can keep him from mating, over 2 years old is preferred. Dogs can be neutered as early as 8 weeks old, but that doesn't necessarily benefit the dog. Many vets regularly neuter and spay at 4-6 months. There are several studies showing that it is beneficial for the dog to wait until he/she is fully grown before altering. It was considered appropriate at one time to neuter your animal between the ages of six and nine months. Now after many studies it has been brought forth that dogs in sports or competitions should not be neutered until after they reach one year of age. bella · 4 years ago. <P> When to neuter. A male dog can be neutered any time after eight weeks of age. A few years ago, most veterinarians advised waiting until puberty hit at about six months, and some still make that recommendation. Talk to your veterinarian about what’s best for your dog. <P> Report Abuse. Some vets will neuter/spay a dog as early as 6 weeks old. I personally think that is too young (especially for females because it can cause incontinence later in life) I recommend 6 months old for all dogs and cats. It was considered appropriate at one time to neuter your animal between the ages of six and nine months. Now after many studies it has been brought forth that dogs in sports or competitions should not be neutered until after they reach one year of age. bella · 4 years ago.

what health concerns are there for over consumption of total fats
|
<P> Saturated fat should be limited to 10% of calories. Saturated fats are found in animal products such as butter, cheese, whole milk, ice cream, cream, and fatty meats. They are also found in some vegetable oils -- coconut, palm, and palm kernel oils. Fat is one of the 3 nutrients (along with protein and carbohydrates) that supply calories to the body. Fat provides 9 calories per gram, more than twice the number provided by carbohydrates or protein. Fat is essential for the proper functioning of the body. <P> Excessive consumption of dietary fats from dairy products and red meat increases the risk of pancreatic cancer, according to a study published in June 2009 in the “Journal of the National Cancer Institute.” The study involved tracking the dietary intake of over 500,000 participants between 1995 and 1996. While eating moderate amounts is beneficial, excessive intake of fats and carbohydrates can cause complications such as cancer and obesity. Excessive consumption of carbs and fats occurs when you eat more than the recommended daily values. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the daily values of carbohydrates and fats are 300 grams and 65 grams, respectively, based on a 2,000-calorie diet <P> Over time, LDL cholesterol and other substances can form blockages that lead to heart attacks and other serious health threats. You can cut back on your consumption of saturated fat by limiting your intake of fatty meats, whole milk, butter, cheese, ice cream, cakes and cookies. Furthermore, there are more calories in each gram of saturated fat (9 calories) than there are in each gram of protein (4 calories) or carbohydrate (4 calories). If you eat fatty foods, you are more likely to have a weight problem. <P> Your body makes its own fat from taking in excess calories. Some fats are found in foods from plants and animals and are known as dietary fat. Dietary fat is a macronutrient that provides energy for your body. Fat is essential to your health because it supports a number of your body's functions. Some vitamins, for instance, must have fat to dissolve and nourish your body. <P> 1 Evidence indicates that total fat should not exceed 30% of total energy intake to avoid unhealthy weight gain (1, 2, 3), with a shift in fat consumption away from saturated fats to unsaturated fats (3), and towards the elimination of industrial trans fats (4). 1 Less than 30% of total energy intake from fats (1, 2, 3). 2 Unsaturated fats (e.g. found in fish, avocado, nuts, sunflower, canola and olive oils) are preferable to saturated fats (e.g. found in fatty meat, butter, palm and coconut oil, cream, cheese, ghee and lard) (3). <P> Regulating your intake of saturated and trans fats. The American Heart Association recommends that adults who would benefit from lowering LDL cholesterol reduce their intake of trans fat and limit their consumption of saturated fat to 5 to 6% of total calories. For adults who would benefit from lowering their LDL cholesterol, the American Heart Association recommends: 1 Reducing saturated fat to no more than 5 to 6 percent of total calories. 2 Reducing the percent of calories from trans fat. <P> The chemical structure of the fat that you eat is more important than you think. Everyone needs some fat in their diet, but too much and too much of the wrong types of fat can be bad for your health. A Dutch group of researchers has recently reported that trans fat (more correctly trans fatty acids) are more detrimental to cardiovascular health than saturated fats. <P> 1 Limiting the amount of trans fats to less than 1 percent of your total daily calories. 2 That means if you need about 2,000 calories a day, less than 20 calories (or 2 grams) should come from trans fats. 3 For good health, the majority of fats you eat should be monounsaturated or polyunsaturated. For adults who would benefit from lowering their LDL cholesterol, the American Heart Association recommends: 1 Reducing saturated fat to no more than 5 to 6 percent of total calories. 2 Reducing the percent of calories from trans fat. <P> Eating saturated fat,and trans fat raises your blood cholesterol level even further. For adults who would benefit from lowering their LDL cholesterol, the American Heart Association recommends: 1 Reducing saturated fat to no more than 5 to 6 percent of total calories. 2 Reducing the percent of calories from trans fat.

what is trimix
|
<P> TriMix-gel® is used as an alternative for patients who have failed on Viagra, Levitra or Cialis and who cannot bring themselves to self-inject with a needle into their own penis. 1 TriMix-gel® has been used for patients who fail on PDE5 Inhibitor tablets (Viagra®, Levitra®, Cialis®) or cannot tolerate the side effects. 2 Study. 3 TriMix-gel® has been prescribed by doctors for erectile dysfunction patients, formerly known as impotence, who cannot or will not self-inject with a needle. <P> Olympia Pharmacy is the national expert on TriMix injections and can offer patients and physicians a wealth of information, instruction and training on the medication. TriMix injections are a medication that is very customized to the patients needs. Olympia will work together with the physician and patient to develop a formula that is most effective for the individual patient. <P> TriMix is a mixture of 3 drugs that provides an effective, low cost treatment for men struggling with erectile dysfunction. It is an alternative treatment for men who can not take, have not had good results with, or experience severe side effects from PDE5 Inhibitor Tablets (Viagra®, Levitra®, Cialis®). <P> Trimix is an injectable three-drug prescribed medication used to treat erectile dysfunction. The active ingredients in the mixture are usually alprostadil, papaverine, and phentolamine. The injection must be compounded by a pharmacy and administered via intracavernosal injection (an injection at the base of the penis). Trimix is typically compounded by a pharmacy in a sterile environment and then frozen. The compound is stable for up to 6 months while stored frozen and for 1 month if stored refrigerated beginning at the time of manufacture <P> Trimix gel is a product used for erectile dysfunction in cases where treatments like Viagra, Levitra, Cialis have proven unsuccessful. It forms a compound medication of three strong erection drugs that when administered directly through the urethra will take effect in as little as 5 minutes. Trimix Gel is a slightly odd treatment to evaluate since it has both good and bad points. On the plus there is real science backing it with all its key ingredients shown to be somewhat effective in promoting erections. On the other hand the products penetration into the wider market seems to be minimal at best <P> The mixture of helium and oxygen with a 0% nitrogen content is generally known as Heliox. This is frequently used as a breathing gas in deep commercial diving operations, where it is often recycled to save the expensive helium component. Analysis of two-component gases is much simpler than three component gases. Heliair blends are similar to the standard Trimix blends made with helium and Nitrox 32, but with a deeper END at MOD. Heliair will always have less than 21% oxygen, and will be hypoxic (less than 17% oxygen) for mixes with more than 20% helium. <P> TriMix injections are a mixture of 3 drugs that provide an effective, low cost treatment for men struggling with erectile dysfunction. It is an alternative treatment for men who cannot take, have not had good results with, or experience severe side effects from PDE5 Inhibitor tablets (Viagra®, Levitra®, Cialis®). TriMix injections are a medication that is very customized to the patients needs. Olympia will work together with the physician and patient to develop a formula that is most effective for the individual patient. <P> A: TriMix-gel® is an easy to apply gel that during clinical trials achieved a 40% success rate among men who have failed with Viagra®, Levitra®, Cialis® and other medications for Erectile Dysfunction, (formerly known as impotence). 1 TriMix-gel® has been used for patients who fail on PDE5 Inhibitor tablets (Viagra®, Levitra®, Cialis®) or cannot tolerate the side effects. 2 Study. 3 TriMix-gel® has been prescribed by doctors for erectile dysfunction patients, formerly known as impotence, who cannot or will not self-inject with a needle. <P> Hyperoxic trimix is sometimes referred to as Helitrox, TriOx, or HOTx (High Oxygen Trimix) with the x in HOTx representing the mixture's fraction of helium as a percentage. See breathing gas for more information on the composition and choice of gas blends. Heliair blends are similar to the standard Trimix blends made with helium and Nitrox 32, but with a deeper END at MOD. Heliair will always have less than 21% oxygen, and will be hypoxic (less than 17% oxygen) for mixes with more than 20% helium.

what are the name of the plains in india
|
<P> Plains of Northern India, also known as Indo-Gangetic Plain or the North Indian River Plain, are a flat and enormous plain. These plains extend in the east west direction between the Himalayan in the north and Great Indian Peninsular Plateau in the south. Composition of Northern Plains of India. The northern plains of India are composed of the excellent silt-alluvium. The main rivers of the region bring it down from the Himalayas in the north and the peninsular plateau in the south. Such a plain is also termed as alluvial plain that is rich in alluvial soil. <P> The Plains Indians got their name because they lived among the Great Plains of the United States. This vast expansion of land extended all the way from Mississippi to the mountains of Canada. In order to survive, the Plains Indians hunted buffalo as their main source of food. They would typically surround the buffalo on horse, until the group of Indians drove it to run off of a cliff. At that point, the buffalo would be dead and ready for consumption. <P> Some geographers subdivide the Indo-Gangetic Plain into three parts: the Indus Valley (mostly in Pakistan), the Punjab (divided between India and Pakistan) and Haryana plains, and the middle and lower Ganga. These regional distinctions are based primarily on the availability of water. In the northern part of the state of Madhya Pradesh, the Malwa Plateau comprises the southern part of the Central Highlands and merges with the Vindhya Range to the south. The main rivers that flow through the southern part of the plain--the Narmada, the Tapti, and the Mahanadi--delineate North India from South India. <P> Plains Indians. The Plains Indians included many tribes including the Sioux, the Cheyenne, the Crow, the Blackfoot, the Comanche, and the Pawnee among many more. These Native American tribes lived in the Great Plains regions of North America. Before the arrival of European settlers many of the Plains Indians lived along the rivers where land was fertile and they could grow lush crops. <P> Nestled within the Bay of Bengal and the Eastern Ghats, is the eastern coastal plains, a wide stretch of land having a width of about 120km. The plains extend from the state of Tamil Nadu in the southern part to the state of West Bengal in the northern region of India. There are several rivers that drain the eastern coastal plains of India. There are few river deltas as well that occupy these valleys. <P> Plains Indians are usually divided into two broad classifications which overlap to some degree. The first group became a fully nomadic horse culture during the 18th and 19th centuries, following the vast herds of buffalo, although some tribes occasionally engaged in agriculture. Their historic nomadic culture and development of equestrian culture and resistance to domination by the government and military forces of Canada and the United States have made the Plains Indian culture groups an archetype in literature and art for American Indians everywhere. <P> Plains Indians are the Native American tribes and First Nation band governments who have traditionally lived on the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies in North America. Their historic nomadic culture and development of equestrian culture and resistance to domination by the government and military forces of Canada and the United States have made the Plains Indian culture groups an archetype in literature and art for American Indians everywhere. <P> Extension of the Plains of Northern India. The Plains of Northern India, also known as the Gangetic Plains, is situated in the southern Himalayan Region. The Northern Plains spreading from Assam to Punjab has a length of around 2400 km and the width ranges between 150 km to 300 km, varying in different regions. Composition of Northern Plains of India. The northern plains of India are composed of the excellent silt-alluvium. The main rivers of the region bring it down from the Himalayas in the north and the peninsular plateau in the south. Such a plain is also termed as alluvial plain that is rich in alluvial soil. <P> The Great Plains is a huge American Indian culture area which is generally sub-divided into the Northern, Central, and Southern Plains. Among the Indian nations of the Central and Southern Plains, the customs regarding names-their use as well as the naming process-varied greatly among the different cultures. Among the Southern Plains tribes there were also some customs with regard to the names of the dead. Among the Comanche, the name of a dead person was not spoken for several years. Among the Tonkawa, the name of a dead person and names similar to those of a dead person were never spoken. <P> The Indo-Gangetic Plain, also known as Indus-Ganga and the North Indian River Plain, is a 255 million hectare (630 million acre) fertile plain encompassing most of northern and eastern India, the eastern parts of Pakistan, and virtually all of Bangladesh. Both the Punjab and Haryana plains are irrigated with water from the Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej rivers. The irrigation projects in progress on these rivers have led to a decrease in the flow of water, which reaches the lower drainage areas in the state of Punjab in India and the Indus Valley in Pakistan.

what did the congress of vienna accomplish
|
<P> A Brief History of the Congress of Vienna. The delegates at the Congress of Vienna (1814-1815) were motivated to a surprisingly large degree by the desire to benefit Europe as a whole, and this is reflected in their purpose in calling the Congress together and the settlement they reached. <P> In a technical sense, the Congress of Vienna was not properly a Congress: it never met in plenary session, and most of the discussions occurred in informal, face-to-face, sessions among the Great Powers of Austria, Britain, France, Russia, and sometimes Prussia, with limited or no participation by other delegates. The Congress of Vienna settlement, despite later changes, formed the framework for European international politics until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. <P> Answers. Best Answer: well the main background was the defeat of Napoleon so it was a redrawing of the european borders. Main pionts were (from wiki) : * Russia was given most of the Duchy of Warsaw (Poland) and was allowed to keep Finland (which it had annexed from Sweden in 1809 and held until 1917). * Prussia was given two fifths of Saxony, parts of the Duchy of Warsaw (the Grand Duchy of Posen), Danzig, and the Rhineland/Westphalia. * A German Confederation of 38 states was created from the previous 360 of the Holy Roman Empire, under the presidency of the Austrian Emperor. <P> The Congress of Vienna restored all the States which existed in Italy before the French revolution, with exception of the Republic of Venice, whose territories in Italy, I … stria and Dalmatia were given to Austria, that became again the dominant power over the Italian Peninsula. The leading figure in the Congress of Vienna in 1814 was Klemens von Metternich who represented Austria. His goals were: Balance of power through out Europe, and expansion of … Austrian empire. [Source]- AP European History, 4th block :). <P> The Revolution of 1830. The Congress of Vienna was convened in 1815 by the four European powers which had defeated Napoleon. The first goal was to establish a new balance of power in Europe which would prevent imperialism within Europe, such as the Napoleonic empire, and maintain the peace between the great powers. <P> The Congress of Vienna was the first of a series of international meetings that came to be known as the Concert of Europe, which was an attempt to forge a peaceful balance of power in Europe. It served as a model for later organizations such as the League of Nations in 1919 and the United Nations in 1945. The Congress of Vienna settlement, despite later changes, formed the framework for European international politics until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. <P> Hesse-Darmstadt, in exchange for giving up the Duchy of Westphalia to Prussia, was granted the city of Mainz. * Austria regained control of the Tirol and Salzburg; of the former Illyrian Provinces; of Tarnopol district (from Russia); received Lombardy-Venetia in Italy and Ragusa in Dalmatia. * Prussia was given two fifths of Saxony, parts of the Duchy of Warsaw (the Grand Duchy of Posen), Danzig, and the Rhineland/Westphalia. * A German Confederation of 38 states was created from the previous 360 of the Holy Roman Empire, under the presidency of the Austrian Emperor. <P> Answers. Best Answer: Not just try,but succeeded in accomplishing. The Congress of Vienna met to settle all outstanding political and territorial questions in Europe following the defeat of Napoleon,to the satisfaction of the Great Powers-Britain,Russia,Austria,and Prussia. The Congress of Vienna was organized following the abdication of Napoleon Bonaparte from the throne in France in 1814. The organization's goal was to achieve a balance of power for the preservation of peace, since the French Revolutions and Napoleonic wars seemed upset this balance throughout Europe. <P> Hi!

what is rockling fish
|
<P> Pink Ling, Rock Ling and Tusk are closely related, eel-like species of fish with long, tapering bodies. Pink Ling is found in marine environments and is caught by trawlers on the continetnal slope off southern Australia. <P> Photograph by Andy G Rapson. A small brown elongate fish with five barbels on the head and an unusual first dorsal fin which consists of a single first ray followed by a fringe of vibrating rays set in a trench-like depression. <P> Thorke stergaard. Introduction: Of the many species of rockling available in Irish waters, you are most likely to encounter the Three Bearded Rockling. It is light brown in colour with dark brown blotches, and has two barbules on the snout with one on the lower jaw. <P> Fishing. ROCKLING The Rockling can be found close to shore around rocks pools sand bars etc. this fish provides little sport and is generely a fish that sea match anglers will target when other sport is poor. <P> Ling is an extrordinarily ugly fish, which is the reason why you will only ever find it filleted. It grows to about 1.5 metres and 20kg in weight. It is a stong, textured fish with no bones. <P> However a three bearded rockling of over a pound is a decent catch and despite being nicknamed ‘slug’ by anglers (due to the fact that they are slimy to the touch) larger specimens can actually be quite attractive fish with their bright orange and black colouration. <P> The Shannon estuary produces lots of specimen fish, mainly from the piers around Aughinish and Moneypoint. Whilst the Three Bearded Rockling is the most commonly caught by anglers, there are potentially five other species to be caught in Irish waters.

how do you increase sodium levels in the blood
|
<P> A blood test to check sodium levels is done to: 1 Check the water and electrolyte balance of the body. 2 Find the cause of symptoms from low or high levels of sodium. 3 Check the progress of diseases of the kidneys or adrenal glands. <P> Sodium (Na) in Blood. Guide. A sodium test checks how much sodium is in the blood. Sodium is both an electrolyte and mineral. It helps keep the water (the amount of fluid inside and outside the body's cells) and electrolyte balance of the body. Sodium is also important in how nerves and muscles work. <P> Your blood sodium level represents a balance between the sodium and water in the food and drinks you consume and the amount in your urine. A small amount is lost through stool and sweat. Many things can affect this balance. Your doctor may order this test if you: 1 Have had a recent injury, surgery, or serious illness. <P> A low blood sodium level is known as hyponatremia and is defined as a sodium level of less than 136 millimoles per liter (mmol/L). Diarrhea, diuretics, heart failure and renal disease are common causes, and the specific etiology may be determined by examining the plasma and urine electrolyte levels. <P> Step 1. Reduce your intake of water to raise your sodium levels in your blood. Water that you drink is absorbed in your blood and reduces the overall concentration of sodium and other electrolytes in your bloodstream. <P> Low sodium levels, or hyponatremia, is a condition in which the levels of sodium, or salt, in your blood stream are too low. Uncorrected low blood sodium can cause fatigue, headache, confusion, hallucinations, muscle weakness, nausea and coma. <P> Sodium is an essential electrolyte in the body. It helps regulate blood pressure and is needed for proper muscle and nerve cell functioning. Low serum sodium, or hyponatremia, is the term used to describe low sodium levels in the blood. Common causes are burns, diarrhea, excessive sweating, vomiting and some medicines that increase urine output levels, like diuretics.

what distinguishes a macronutrient from a micronutrient
|
<P> Macronutrients are the nutrients needed by plants in larger quantities like potassium, nitrogen, oxygen, etc. Micronutrients are the nutrients needed by plants in smaller quan … tities like magnesium and molybdenum. Essential micronutrients include iodine, iron, vitamin A and folate. A nutrient is a substance used in an organism's metabolism which must be taken in from the en … vironment. Non-autotrophic organisms typically acquire nutrients by the ingestion of foods. <P> As stated above, your body is able to break those foods down into their chemical parts, like macronutrients and micronutrients. Macronutrients are the structural and energy-giving caloric components of our foods that most of us are familiar with. They include carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Micronutrients are the vitamins, minerals, trace elements, phytochemicals, and antioxidants that are essential for good health. The quantity and quality of these nutrients vary greatly, depending on not only what types of food you eat, but also the quality of those foods. <P> Macronutrients include Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen. Micronutrients are chlorine, iron, maganese, zinc, boron, sodium, copper, molybdenum and nickel. Plants need these nutrients to survive. Macronutrients mainly include carbohydrates, proteins and fats and also water which are required in large quantities and their main function being the release of energy in body. Whereas, micronutrients mainly comprise vitamins and minerals which are required in minute quantities. Essential micronutrients include iodine, iron, vitamin A and folate. A nutrient is a substance used in an organism's metabolism which must be taken in from the en … vironment. Non-autotrophic organisms typically acquire nutrients by the ingestion of foods. <P> There are seven major classes of nutrients: carbohydrates, fats, fiber, minerals, protein, vitamin, and water. These nutrient classes can be categorized as either macronutrients (needed in relatively large amounts) or micronutrients (needed in smaller quantities). The micronutrients are minerals and vitamins. The macronutrients (excluding fiber and water) provide structural material (amino acids from which proteins are built, and lipids from which cell membranes and some signaling molecules are built) and energy. <P> Vitamins and Minerals. The three macronutrients of protein, fat, and carbohydrates all perform essential roles in the human body. Macronutrients are the main components of our diet. Our bodies require others nutrients as well, such as vitamins and minerals. However, these are needed in much smaller quantities, and thus are referred to as micronutrients. All three macronutrients are needed in the diet, as each perform vital functions in the body. 1. Protein. Protein should consist of about 10 to 35 percent of your diet. <P> Best Answer: Micronutrients are essential elements needed by life in small quantities. They include microminerals and Vitamins. Microminerals or trace elements include at least iron, cobalt, chromium, copper, iodine, manganese, selenium, zinc, and molybdenum. Micronutrients are nutrients needed by life to survive, but in small quantites. These include vitamins such as iron and zinc to give a few examples.

<P> Tae Kwon Do in the United States. The introduction of Tae Kwon Do in the United States began during the 1950’s when a handful of pioneering master instructors travelled to America to spread the art. Throughout the next few decades Tae Kwon Do grew in popularity, not only as a martial art, but as an international sport. It is recognized as one of the oldest forms of martial arts in the world, reaching back over 2,000 years. The name was selected for its appropriate description of the art: Tae (foot), Kwon (hand), Do (art). <P> The official name taekwondo was adopted for the sport in 1954. Tae Kwon Do is now practiced by over 25 million people in 140 countries and has been adopted as an official event in the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games. Tae Kwon Do is the art of hand and foot fighting. It is the scientific use of the body and the methods of self-defense. Tae Kwon Do stresses the importance of harmony and balance between the mental and physical. By doing this, one can have a stable and balanced system. Tae Kwon Do develops in a man the speed and power to kill instantly with his bare hands and feet. But it is the art of the discipline to develop, such control, coordination and balance that the punching and kicking movements can be stopped just centimeters short of their mark on the opponent's body. <P> Tae Kwon Do is a Korean Martial Art with over 5,000 years of history. During ancient times all the cultures of Korea had fighting traditions of unarmed skills for self-defense against attacks from animals as well as tribal wars. Tae Kwon Do develops in a man the speed and power to kill instantly with his bare hands and feet. But it is the art of the discipline to develop, such control, coordination and balance that the punching and kicking movements can be stopped just centimeters short of their mark on the opponent's body. <P> The oldest governing body for Taekwondo is the Korea Taekwondo Association (KTA) which was formed in 1959 by a collaborative effort by representatives from the nine original kwans, or martial arts schools, in Korea. USA Taekwondo is the officially recognized National Governing Body for Taekwondo for the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), and the official Member National Association of the World Taekwondo Federation. <P> Taekwondo (/ˈtaɪˈkwɒnˈdoʊ/) is a Korean martial art with a heavy emphasis on kicks. Taekwondo was developed during the 1940s and 1950s by various Korean martial artists, as a blend of the indigenous Korean fighting styles of taekkyeon, gwonbeop, and subak, with influence from foreign martial arts as well. USA Taekwondo is the officially recognized National Governing Body for Taekwondo for the United States Olympic Committee (USOC), and the official Member National Association of the World Taekwondo Federation. <P> The original International Taekwon-Do Federation (ITF) is a taekwondo organization founded on March 22, 1966, by General Choi Hong Hi in Seoul, South Korea. The ITF practices a style of taekwondo known as Chang Hon taekwondo, though colloquially this is often called ITF-style. The International Taekwon-Do Federation's sparring rules are similar to the WTF 's rules, but differ in several aspects. 1 Hand and foot attacks to the head are allowed. 2 The scoring system is: 3 1 Point for: punch to the body or head. 4 2 Points for: kick to the body. 5 3 Points for: any kick to the head. <P> The ITF was initially formed as a federation of taekwondo associations from the following countries as its founding members: Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, West Germany, the United States, Turkey, Italy, Arab Republic of Egypt and South Korea. The International Taekwon-Do Federation's sparring rules are similar to the WTF 's rules, but differ in several aspects. 1 Hand and foot attacks to the head are allowed. 2 The scoring system is: 3 1 Point for: punch to the body or head. 4 2 Points for: kick to the body. 5 3 Points for: any kick to the head. <P> Black Belt World is a World Class Premiere Taekwondo/Martial Arts Academy headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

what is the normal range for glucose levels
|
<P> A person with prediabetes has a fasting blood glucose level between 100 and 125 mg/dl. If the blood glucose level rises to 126 mg/dl or above, a person has diabetes." and "•An A1C 5.6% or below is normal. In prediabetes, A1C levels range between 5.7%-6.4%. Sara: Your doctor wants test you for type 2 diabetes. A normal fasting blood glucose target range for an individual without diabetes is 70-100 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or 3.9-5.6 millimoles per liter (mmol/L). <P> Normal blood sugar varies from person to person, but a normal range for fasting blood sugar (the amount of glucose in your blood six to eight hours after a meal) is between 70 and 100 milligrams per deciliter. For most individuals, the level of glucose in the blood rises after meals. A normal blood-sugar range after eating is between 135 and 140 milligrams per deciliter. These variations in blood-sugar levels, both before and after meals, are normal and reflect the way that glucose is absorbed and stored in the body <P> And it's less than 140 mg/dL 2 hours after eating. During the day, levels tend to be at their lowest just before meals. For most people without diabetes, blood sugar levels before meals hover around 70 to 80 mg/dL. For some people, 60 is normal; for others, 90. <P> For a person without diabetes, the normal glucose levels should be in the range of 70 to 120 mg/dl. According to American Diabetes Association, the normal glucose range for diabetics should always be less than 154 mg/dl. The normal glucose range for children before breakfast should be in the range 70 to 99 mg/dl. Two to four hours after a meal, the normal glucose range should be between 70 to 139 mg/dl. The normal glucose range before eating is 70 to 130 mg/dl. According to the doctors, it is better to keep the blood glucose level in this range to avoid nerve, kidney or blood vessel damage. If glucose accumulates in the blood, it can cause damage to the vital functions of the body. <P> Answer: Now, in a normal individual we measure blood sugar under different circumstances. What we call fasting blood sugar or blood glucose levels is usually done six to eight hours after the last meal. So it's most commonly done before breakfast in the morning; and the normal range there is 70 to 100 milligrams per deciliter. Now when you eat a meal, blood sugar generally rises and in a normal individual it usually does not get above a 135 to 140 milligrams per deciliter. <P> What the Numbers Mean. A fasting blood sugar of 99 mg/dL or less is considered within the normal range. A person is prediabetic if fasting blood sugar is between 100 to 125 mg/dL. Diabetes is diagnosed at 126 mg/dL or greater. It's important to note that one high blood sugar does not automatically make you diabetic <P> A normal fasting blood glucose target range for an individual without diabetes is 70-100 mg/dL (3.9-5.6 mmol/L). The American Diabetes Association recommends a fasting plasma glucose level of 70–130 mg/dL (3.9-7.2 mmol/L) and after meals less than 180 mg/dL (10 mmol/L). Sara: Your doctor wants test you for type 2 diabetes. A normal fasting blood glucose target range for an individual without diabetes is 70-100 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) or 3.9-5.6 millimoles per liter (mmol/L). <P> The normal blood glucose level (tested while fasting) for non-diabetics, should be between 3.9 and 5.5 mmol/L (70 to 100 mg/dL). The mean normal blood glucose level in humans is about 5.5 mmol/L (100 mg/dL); however, this level fluctuates throughout the day. The actual amount of glucose in the blood and body fluids is very small. In a healthy adult male of 75 kg with a blood volume of 5 liters, a blood glucose level of 5.5 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) amounts to 5g, slightly less than two typical American restaurant sugar packets for coffee or tea.

origin of replication eukaryotes

<P> DNA replication begins at a specific spot on the DNA molecule called the origin of replication. At the origin, enzymes unwind the double helix making it accessible for replication. Each strand of the helix then separates from the other, exposing the now unpaired bases to serve as templates for new strands. <P> Published on Sep 21, 2013. The origin of replication (also called the replication origin) is a particular sequence in a genome at which replication is initiated. This can either involve the replication of DNA in living organisms such as prokaryotes and eukaryotes, or that of DNA or RNA in viruses, such as double-stranded RNA viruses. <P> 1 Most archaea have a single circular molecule of DNA, and several origins of replication along this circular chromosome. 2 Eukaryotes often have multiple origins of replication on each linear chromosome that initiate at different times (replication timing), with up to 100,000 present in a single human cell. <P> The origin of replication is a particular sequence in a genome at which replication is initiated.

This can either involve the replication of DNA in living organisms such as prokaryotes and eukaryotes, or that of DNA or RNA in viruses, such as double-stranded RNA viruses. <P> The number of replication origins in a genome is, for the most part, dependent on chromosome size. Bacterial and archaeal genomes, which usually consist of a small circular chromosome, frequently have a single replication origin (Barry and Bell 2006; Gao and Zhang 2007).

how is lovenox monitored
|
<P> Enoxaparin binds to and accelerates the activity of antithrombin III. By activating antithrombin III, enoxaparin preferentially potentiates the inhibition of coagulation factors Xa and IIa(thrombin). The anticoagulant effect of enoxaparin can be directly correlated to its ability to inhibit factor Xa. 1 Since the action on F10a/F2a generation is much more important than just anti-F10a concentration LMWH should be monitored by an ultra-specific and ultra-sensitive thrombin generation assay (INCA or EXCA). 2 Because enoxaparin is dosed by weight, weight should also be monitored. <P> The maximum dose of enoxaparin should be 150 mg SC Q 12 h. For a patient receiving a dose of enoxaparin of 130 mg to 150 mg (i.e., patient weight 130 kg to 150 kg or greater), the low molecular weight heparin assay may be a useful monitoring tool. Enoxaparin for Patients with Renal Dysfunction. Patients at extremes of weight should have the dose of enoxaparin adjusted and anticoagulation should be monitored using the low molecular weight heparin assay. In clinical trials using enoxaparin for the treatment of DVT or PE, the 1 mg/kg Q 12 h dose was given to patients up to weights of approximately 150 kg. <P> BRAND NAME: Lovenox. DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Enoxaparin is a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) that is used to prevent blood clots. It is produced by chemically breaking heparin into smaller-sized molecules. Unlike heparin, the effect of enoxaparin does not need to be monitored with blood tests. Like heparin, enoxaparin prevents blood clots from forming by blocking the action of two of the 12 clot-promoting proteins in blood (factors X and II) whose action is necessary for blood to clot. <P> Platelet counts less than 50,000/mm³ occurred at a rate of 0.1% in patients given Lovenox, in 0.2% of patients given heparin, and 0.4% of patients given placebo in the same trials. Thrombocytopenia of any degree should be monitored closely. If the platelet count falls below 100,000/mm³, Lovenox should be discontinued. Cases of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia with thrombosis have also been observed in clinical practice. Lovenox does not cross the placenta, and is not expected to result in fetal exposure to the drug. Human data from a retrospective cohort study, which included 693 live births, suggest that Lovenox does not increase the risk of major developmental abnormalities. <P> 1 Anti-factor Xa levels can be measured, and are generally used to monitor enoxaparin activity in certain subgroups of patients. 2 Anti-factor Xa levels may be recommended in underweight, obese, pregnant, or renally impaired patients. 1 Since the action on F10a/F2a generation is much more important than just anti-F10a concentration LMWH should be monitored by an ultra-specific and ultra-sensitive thrombin generation assay (INCA or EXCA). 2 Because enoxaparin is dosed by weight, weight should also be monitored. <P> LMWH does not require routine laboratory monitoring. For treatment of deep venous thrombosis with or without pulmonary embolism, enoxaparin has received FDA approval in a weight based dose of 1 mg per kg twice daily (as well as approval for a less frequently used dose of 1.5 mg per kg once daily). For treatment of unstable angina or non-Q wave myocardial infarction, the LMWH, enoxaparin, has received Food and Drug Administration approval based on the patient's weight, in a dose of 1 mg per kg twice daily. <P> Enoxaparin is a low molecular weight heparin marketed under the trade names Lovenox, Xaparin and Clexane, among others. It is an anticoagulant used to prevent and treat deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, and is given as a subcutaneous injection (by a health care provider or the patient). 1 Since the action on F10a/F2a generation is much more important than just anti-F10a concentration LMWH should be monitored by an ultra-specific and ultra-sensitive thrombin generation assay (INCA or EXCA). 2 Because enoxaparin is dosed by weight, weight should also be monitored. <P> However, it is usually quite clear when Coumadin, Lovenox, or both medications should be used. In most cases, it is simply not an option to use Coumadin when Lovenox is necessary (despite the fear of needles or the high cost of Lovenox).

what is a human nervous system
|
<P> The Human Nervous System. - Human Neurology. The nervous system is essentially a biological information highway, and is responsible for controlling all the biological processes and movement in the body, and can also receive information and interpret it via electrical signals which are used in this nervous system. <P> Central Nervous System. The central nervous system is divided into two parts: the brain and the spinal cord. The average adult human brain weighs 1.3 to 1.4 kg (approximately 3 pounds). The brain contains about 100 billion nerve cells (neurons) and trillions of support cells called glia. <P> The Human Body: Nervous system. The nervous system is a network of specialized cells that communicate information about an organism's surroundings and itself. It processes this information and causes reactions in other parts of the body.... <P> The nervous system is a complex collection of nerves and specialized cells known as neurons that transmit signals between different parts of the body. It is essentially the body’s electrical wiring. Structurally, the nervous system has two components: the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The peripheral nervous system consists of sensory neurons, ganglia (clusters of neurons) and nerves that connect to one another and to the central nervous system. Functionally, the nervous system has two main subdivisions: the somatic, or voluntary, component; and the autonomic, or involuntary, component. <P> The nervous system is the part of an animal 's body that coordinates its voluntary and involuntary actions and transmits signals to and from different parts of its body. Nervous tissue first arose in wormlike organisms about 550 to 600 million years ago. The central nervous system functions to send signals from one cell to others, or from one part of the body to others and to receive feedback. <P> The human nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS, in turn, is divided into the brain and the spinal cord, which lie in the cranial cavity of the skull and the vertebral canal, respectively. The central nervous system, which includes the spinal cord and the brain, is the most protected organ in the human body. It is protected from the external environment by three barriers: skull, meninges, and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). <P> The brain sends messages through the spinal cord and nerves of the peripheral nervous system to control the movement of the muscles and the function of internal organs. The basic working unit of the nervous system is a cell called a neuron. The human brain contains about 100 billion neurons. The peripheral nervous system is made up of the nerve fibers that branch off from the spinal cord and extend to all parts of the body, including the neck and arms, torso, legs, skeletal muscles and <P> In vertebrate species it consists of two main parts, the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS contains the brain and spinal cord. The PNS consists mainly of nerves, which are enclosed bundles of the long fibers or axons, that connect the CNS to every other part of the body. The central nervous system functions to send signals from one cell to others, or from one part of the body to others and to receive feedback. <P> Nerves. Nerves are bundles of axons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that act as information highways to carry signals between the brain and spinal cord and the rest of the body. Each axon is wrapped in a connective tissue sheath called the endoneurium. <P> The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, sensory organs, and all of the nerves that connect these organs with the rest of the body. Together, these organs are responsible for the control of the body and communication among its parts. Nerves are bundles of axons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that act as information highways to carry signals between the brain and spinal cord and the rest of the body.

<P> Definition of REFLEX for Kids. 1. : an action or movement that is made automatically without thinking as a reaction to a stimulus. 2. : an action or movement of the body that happens automatically as a reaction to something. : something that you do without thinking <P> reflex. a reflected involuntary action or movement; the sum total of any particular automatic response mediated by the nervous system. A reflex is built into the nervous system and does not need the intervention of conscious thought to take effect. an involuntary response to a stimulus conveyed to the nervous system and reflected to the periphery (see also reflex). reflex bradycardia. bradycardia occurring as a reflex initiated by severe atrial or ventricular stretch. <P> reflex. n. 1. (Physiology). a. an immediate involuntary response, esp one that is innate, such as coughing or removal of the hand from a hot surface, evoked by a given stimulus. b. (as modifier): a reflex action. 1. Physiology Being an involuntary action or response, such as a sneeze, blink, or hiccup. 2. Produced as an automatic response or reaction: reflex opposition to change. <P> A conditioned reflex is one acquired as the result of experience. When an action is done repeatedly the nervous system becomes familiar with the situation and learns to react automatically, and a new reflex is built into the system. cough reflex the sequence of events initiated by the sensitivity of the lining of the airways and mediated by the medulla as a consequence of impulses transmitted by the vagus nerve, resulting in coughing, i.e., the clearing of the passageways of foreign matter. <P> vomiting reflex the reflex for vomiting, caused by reflexive stimulation of muscles of the gastrointestinal tract and throat; it is mediated by centers in the medulla oblongata and can be set in motion by a variety of stimuli. cough reflex the sequence of events initiated by the sensitivity of the lining of the airways and mediated by the medulla as a consequence of impulses transmitted by the vagus nerve, resulting in coughing, i.e., the clearing of the passageways of foreign matter. <P> Page 1 of 3 Reflex Testing 20140801 TriHealth Laboratories REFLEX TESTING Reflex testing is an important tool in providing timely, cost-effective and quality care to patients. A reflex test is a laboratory test performed (and charged for) subsequent to an initially ordered and resulted test. <P> tonic neck reflex extension of the upper limb and sometimes the lower limb on the side to which the head is forcibly turned, with flexion of the contralateral limbs; seen normally in the newborn. If it persists into the second or third year of life, it indicates a neurologic disorder. cough reflex the sequence of events initiated by the sensitivity of the lining of the airways and mediated by the medulla as a consequence of impulses transmitted by the vagus nerve, resulting in coughing, i.e., the clearing of the passageways of foreign matter. <P> 1 reflex. noun re·flex \ˈrē-ˌfleks\. Tweet. : an action or movement of the body that happens automatically as a reaction to something. : something that you do without thinking as a reaction to something. reflexes: the natural ability to react quickly <P> A reflex action, differently known as a reflex, is an involuntary and nearly instantaneous movement in response to a stimulus. Scientific use of the term reflex refers to a behavior that is mediated via the reflex arc; this does not apply to casual uses of the term reflex. Many of these reflexes are quite complex requiring a number of synapses in a number of different nuclei in the CNS (e.g., the escape reflex). Others of these involve just a couple of synapses to function (e.g., the withdrawal reflex). <P> Doctors will typically grade the activity of a reflex on a scale from 0 to 4. While 2+ is considered normal, some healthy individuals are hypo-reflexive and register all reflexes at 1+, while others are hyper-reflexive and register all reflexes at 3+. Many of these reflexes are quite complex requiring a number of synapses in a number of different nuclei in the CNS (e.g., the escape reflex).

<P> 1 An asphalt driveway costs about $2 -$5 a square foot, or $1,200 -$3,000 for 12'x50' to $31,000 -$75,000 for a 12' lane a quarter mile long. 1 A plain concrete driveway can cost $3 -$10 or more a square foot, or $900 -$3,000 for 12'x25' or $2,900 -$9,600 for 24'x40', while a customized concrete driveway with multiple decorative elements can cost $15 -$25 or more a square foot, or $4,500 -$7,500 for 12'x25' or $14,400 -$24,000 for 24'x40'). <P> What should be included: 1 CostHelper readers report paying $2,300 -$10,300 to install a new asphalt driveway or completely remove replace an old one, or $1.67 -$2.72 a square foot, with an average cost of $2.24 a square foot. 1 Professional driveway sealing can cost $200 -$500 or more. 2 Asphalt driveways are typically installed by asphalt or paving contractors (although general building or landscaping contractors may do this as part of a larger project, and sub out the asphalt work. <P> Cost. Ignoring any maintenance costs, asphalt is generally much cheaper to install than concrete. On average, the cost per square foot for asphalt will run between $2.50 to $4.00. Fluctuations in crude oil prices can cause fluctuations in asphalt prices but the price will remain around this range. Concrete, on the other hand, can run between $4.00 to $6.00 per square foot for basic installation and can cost more depending on different finishes and detail. It’s not unheard of to have a stained concrete driveway with a smooth finish cost over $15.00 per square foot. <P> 1 Macadam typically lasts 6-10 years and provides the decorative and rustic appearance of a gravel driveway but with a firm base. 2 An asphalt driveway costs about $2 -$5 a square foot, or $1,200 -$3,000 for 12'x50' to $31,000 -$75,000 for a 12' lane a quarter mile long. 1 A plain concrete driveway can cost $3 -$10 or more a square foot, or $900 -$3,000 for 12'x25' or $2,900 -$9,600 for 24'x40', while a customized concrete driveway with multiple decorative elements can cost $15 -$25 or more a square foot, or $4,500 -$7,500 for 12'x25' or $14,400 -$24,000 for 24'x40'). <P> 1 CostHelper readers report paying $2,300 -$10,300 to install a new asphalt driveway or completely remove replace an old one, or $1.67 -$2.72 a square foot, with an average cost of $2.24 a square foot. 1 Professional driveway sealing can cost $200 -$500 or more. 2 Asphalt driveways are typically installed by asphalt or paving contractors (although general building or landscaping contractors may do this as part of a larger project, and sub out the asphalt work. <P> 1 Also called tar and chip or oil and stone, macadam driveway can cost $1 -$3 or more a square foot on an existing driveway, or $600 -$1,800 for 12'x50'; and $2 -$4 or more a square foot for a completely new driveway with gravel base, or $1,200 -$2,400 for 12'x50'. 1 A plain concrete driveway can cost $3 -$10 or more a square foot, or $900 -$3,000 for 12'x25' or $2,900 -$9,600 for 24'x40', while a customized concrete driveway with multiple decorative elements can cost $15 -$25 or more a square foot, or $4,500 -$7,500 for 12'x25' or $14,400 -$24,000 for 24'x40'). <P> Your driveway, would be roughly $1,000 of asphalt assuming 3 inches thick and $140/ton. Again, this is just an estimate, because your driveway is small, the unit price will likely be higher. Let’s say it’s $1,500 in paving and then likely another $1,000 to $2,000 in prep work. If you budget around $3,000 you’d likely be safe. <P> 1 An asphalt driveway typically costs about $2 -$5 a square foot, $1,200 - $3,000 for a 12'x50' single-car driveway; or $25,000 -$50,000 for up to a quarter mile. 1 Professional driveway sealing can cost $200 -$500 or more. 2 Asphalt driveways are typically installed by asphalt or paving contractors (although general building or landscaping contractors may do this as part of a larger project, and sub out the asphalt work. <P> 1 A stamped asphalt pattern (typically in the shape of bricks or stones) on a new or existing asphalt driveway can cost $3 -$9 a square foot, or $900 -$2,700 for 12'x25' or $3,600 -$11,000 for 24'x50' for just the stamping. 1 A plain concrete driveway can cost $3 -$10 or more a square foot, or $900 -$3,000 for 12'x25' or $2,900 -$9,600 for 24'x40', while a customized concrete driveway with multiple decorative elements can cost $15 -$25 or more a square foot, or $4,500 -$7,500 for 12'x25' or $14,400 -$24,000 for 24'x40').

<P> Indian cuisine has also shaped the history of international relations; the spice trade between India and Europe is often cited by historians as the primary catalyst for Europe's Age of Discovery. Spices were bought from India and traded around Europe and Asia. The daily diet of Himachal people is similar to that of the rest of North India, including lentils, broth, rice, vegetables, and bread, although non-vegetarian cuisine is preferred. Some of the specialities of Himachal include sidu, patande, chukh, rajmah and til chutney. <P> Wild food is an important feature of the diet. The paleolithic diet is a diet based on the foods ancient ancestors might likely have eaten, such as meat, nuts, and berries, and excludes food to which they had not yet become familiar, like dairy. <P> Print. Ayurveda is the ancient medical system of India. It offers one of the fastest paths to health. Instead of having to guess which foods, supplements, and behaviors are appropriate for you, there is a simple, direct prescriptive path that is developed for your unique body type, or dosha. <P> Staple foods of Indian cuisine include pearl millet (bājra), rice, whole-wheat flour (aṭṭa), and a variety of lentils, such as masoor (most often red lentils), toor (pigeon peas), urad (black gram), and mong (mung beans). The daily diet of Himachal people is similar to that of the rest of North India, including lentils, broth, rice, vegetables, and bread, although non-vegetarian cuisine is preferred. Some of the specialities of Himachal include sidu, patande, chukh, rajmah and til chutney. <P> As far as dietary nutrition is concerned, Indians get much of their dietary protein from fish, lamb, beans, lentils and dairy. Fat in the Indian diet comes mainly from cooking oils and fats, while common starchy carbohydrate foods include rice, and a variety of flours and breads. The Indian diet is rich in fiber, from legumes and vegetables as well as wholegrains. Cereal grains like rice, wheat and maize form an important part of the staple Indian diet. Due to differences in climate, rice is consumed more in the south of India while wheat forms an important part of the diet in the northern regions. <P> 1 Diabetes control is governed by following the right diabetic diet. 2 What to eat and what not to eat is important for diabetes control and diabetes cure or diabetes reversal. 3 These are the top 15 diabetes diet tips from diabetologists and nutritionists. 1 Diabetes Control: Diabetic Diet TipsPulses are important in the diet as their effect on blood glucose is less than that of most other carbohydrate containing foods. 2 Vegetables rich in fibre help lowering down the blood sugar levels and thus are healthy. <P> Given the range of diversity in soil type, climate, culture, ethnic group and occupations, these cuisines vary significantly from each other and use locally available spices, herbs, vegetables and fruits. Indian food is also heavily influenced by religious and cultural choices and traditions.

Some of the specialities of Himachal include sidu, patande, chukh, rajmah and til chutney. <P> The Vegetarian diet plan for weight loss is not just to lose weight, but it is also a maintenance method for a slim and proportionate body. Along with these, it will help you practice eating vegetables and fruits which will help to boost up the metabolic rate. You can complete your day with the consumption of water. That is the whole diet plan for 7 days. If you can follow it strictly, no one can stop you from gaining a healthy and slimmer body. The below tips will help you to plan your 7 days effectively. <P> Food is any substance consumed to provide nutritional support for the body. It is usually of plant or animal origin, and contains essential nutrients, such as fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals. Seeds of plants are a good source of food for animals, including humans, because they contain the nutrients necessary for the plant's initial growth, including many healthful fats, such as Omega fats. In fact, the majority of food consumed by human beings are seed-based foods. <P> You’ve probably heard the term plant-based diet before, which is another way of saying vegetarian diet. A vegetarian diet is an eating pattern based on plant foods with little or no animal products. There are several types of vegetarian diets, and they vary in terms of what is and is not included. The most common types are: 1 Vegan — Omits all meat, eggs, and dairy products. 2 Lacto-vegetarian — Omits all meat and eggs. Regardless of the type of meal plan you choose to follow (vegetarian or not), it is important for all of us to include a variety of nutritious plant foods. Think vegetables, fruit, whole grains, beans, nuts, and seeds.

What is the connective tissue cells beside fat cells
|
<P> Types of cells found in connective tissue. Fibroblasts. These are the least specialised of all the cells. They are mainly responsible for secreting the non-rigid extracellular matrix including the fibres: collagen, elastin or fibronectin. Also present, just underneath the epithelium of blood capillaries, are cells called Pericytes - (perivascular cells-peri is greek for 'around), which can divide and provide a source of new fibroblasts, especially following tissue injury. Finally, smooth muscle is commonly found in connective tissue. For example, in regions of connective tissue where there are glands, smooth muscle cells called myo-epithelial cells, which lie between epithelial cells and the basement membrane of ducts, are found. The type of connective tissue shown in this photograph on the right is is a type of loose connective tissue <P> Adipose tissue is found in specific locations, which are referred to as adipose depots. Apart from adipocytes, which comprise the highest percentage of cells within adipose tissue, other cell types are present, collectively termed stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of cells. In biology, adipose tissue /ˈaedɨˌpoʊs/ ˈædɨˌpoʊs or body fat or just fat is loose connective tissue composed mostly of. <P> Adipose Tissue is a loose fibrous connective tissue that is packed with many fat cells (called adipocytes ): Adipose tissue forms a thick layer under the skin, around the kidneys and in the buttocks. More generally, it is found at the same locations throughout the body as areolar connective tissue. 2.0 The Structure of adipose tissue. Adipose Tissue is a loose fibrous connective tissue packed with many cells (called adipocytes ) that are specialized for storage of triglycerides more commonly referred to as fats . Each adipocyte cell is filled with a single large droplet of triglyceride (fat). <P> Ordinary connective tissue, or connective tissue proper , is a generalized form of connective tissue which contains all of the basic components of connective tissue in reasonable proportion, including cells (of several types), extracellular fibers, and extracellular ground substance. CELLS: The most common connective tissue cells are: 1 Fibroblasts, which secrete collagen and other elements of the extracellular matrix. 2 Adipocytes, which store fat. 3 Mast cells, macrophages, and lymphocytes, cells with immune function which participate in inflammation. <P> Connective tissue (CT) is one of the four types of biological tissue that support, connect, or separate different types of tissues and organs in the body. The other three types are epithelial, muscle, and nervous tissue. Other kinds of connective tissues include fibrous, elastic, and lymphoid connective tissues. Fibroblasts are the cells responsible for the production of some CT. Type-I collagen, is present in many forms of connective tissue, and makes up about 25% of the total protein content of the mammalian body. <P> 1 Adipose tissue is a loose connective tissue in which fat cells predominate. 2 Elastic tissue consists primarily of elastic fibers or fenestrated elastic laminae and is limited in distribution to certain ligaments and the elastic laminae of larger arteries. <P> Adipocytes, are fat cells. There are two types of fat cells: White Fat Cells, which are the most common type in adults. These are unilocular (have a single large lipid droplet), have a large diameter (100µm or more), and are found in subcutaneous, omentum & mesentry regions. <P> Adipose tissue is loose connective tissue which is dominated by fat cells, or adipocytes. Since most loose connective tissue contains scattered clusters of adipocytes, the term adipose tissue is usually reserved for large masses (grossly visible) of these cells. CELLS: The most common connective tissue cells are: 1 Fibroblasts, which secrete collagen and other elements of the extracellular matrix. 2 Adipocytes, which store fat. 3 Mast cells, macrophages, and lymphocytes, cells with immune function which participate in inflammation. <P> Adipose tissue is one of the main types of connective tissue.

When nuclear reactions occur what happens in terms of energy and stability
|
<P> A possible nuclear fission chain reaction. 1. A uranium-235 atom absorbs a neutron, and fissions into two new atoms (fission fragments), releasing three new neutrons and a large amount of binding energy. 2. <P> Nuclear fusion and nuclear fission are different types of reactions that release energy due to the presence of high-powered atomic bonds between particles found within a nucleus. In fission, an atom is split into two or more smaller, lighter atoms. <P> Definition. Nuclear fission is the process in which a large nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei with the release of energy. In other words, fission the process in which a nucleus is divided into two or more fragments, and neutrons and energy are released. The mass changes and associated energy changes in nuclear reactions are significant. <P> 2. One of those neutrons is absorbed by an atom of uranium-238, and does not continue the reaction. Another neutron leaves the system without being absorbed. However, one neutron does collide with an atom of uranium-235, which then fissions and releases two neutrons and more binding energy. <P> The nuclei of some atoms can break down into two smaller, more stable nuclei during a process called nuclear fission. Heavy nuclei with mass number greater than 60 tend to be unstable and split into smaller nuclei with a release of energy. Nuclear chain reaction is a continuous series of nuclear fission reactions, self-sustaining process in which one reaction initiates the next. <P> In this symbolic representing of a nuclear reaction, lithium-6 (6 3Li) and deuterium (2 1H) react to form the highly excited intermediate nucleus 8 4Be which then decays immediately into two alpha particles of helium-4 (4 2He). <P> Nuclear fusion is the reaction in which two or more nuclei combine, forming a new element with a higher atomic number (more protons in the nucleus). The energy released in fusion is related to E = mc 2 (Einstein’s famous energy-mass equation). <P> The energy released by fission is a million times greater than that released in chemical reactions, but lower than the energy released by nuclear fusion. The energy released by fusion is three to four times greater than the energy released by fission.

what is kosher gelatin in yogurt
|
<P> To get 100-calorie yogurt, less yogurt is used. Unfortunately there are a number of kashrus issues in the use of gelatin. Gelatin, is by definition an animal product. The gelatin used in current yogurt products is produced from pork or non-kosher slaughtered beef. Since there are rabbis who give kosher certification to these gelatins and the products produced from them, manufacturers call this gelatin kosher gelatin and put a K on the products. <P> You're standing in the dairy section of your supermarket. You read 'Kosher Gelatin' on the Ingredients List of a container of yogurt. You've heard that 'Kosher Gelatin' can come from pig skins. But you've also heard that it comes from fish bones. <P> Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Kosher gelatin means that it is gelatin that is in accordance with Jewish dietary laws. This means that the gelatin can't come from an animal that is considered unclean such as the pig. Kosher gelatin is usually derived from fish or beef.. Yoplait says that the gelatin used in their products is beef derived. So no, it isn't vegetarian. If someone is a vegetarian, it's best to stay away from products that say they have gelatin. But it's okay, you're still a vegetarian. <P> Some yogurts use gelatin for thickness and consistency. It makes the yogurt more creamy and also keeps fruit from sinking to the bottom of the cup. If one is interested in knowing what is kosher gelatin in yogurt, it is going to be from fish or from a gelatin substitute. Kosher approved gelatin will always have certification on the package indicating whether it is from a meat source or from fish, which is considered pareva, or neutral. Kosher food laws indicate that neutral foods such as eggs, fish, vegetables and grains may be eaten with either meat or dairy. <P> Before writing about kosher gelatin, let's explain what gelatin is. Gelatin is a colorless and tasteless substance that comes from collagen inside the skin and bones of animals. It is commonly used to give food a gelatinous texture and in pharmaceuticals. Kosher approved gelatin will always have certification on the package indicating whether it is from a meat source or from fish, which is considered pareva, or neutral. Kosher food laws indicate that neutral foods such as eggs, fish, vegetables and grains may be eaten with either meat or dairy. <P> 1 Kosher gelatin is also made from pork source and listed as kosher gelatin in some products with kosher symbol KO. 2 These products are Haram (NOT HALAL). 3 The Union of Orthodex Jewish Congregation of America certifies a Kosher gelatin, which is made from cattle. There is a big confusion about Kosher Gelatin which is now used very extensively in yogurts, sour Cream, Cottage cheese and Ice Cream. There are four type of kosher gelatin in the food products but none of them meet the Islamic dietary requirements and considered NOT Halal. <P> Many foods use gelatin, which is an animal-derived product, as a thickening or coagulating agent in many foods. According to the labels on its products, as well as the information provided on its public website, yogurt made by the Yoplait company includes what is referred to as kosher gelatin.. Vegetarian Yogurts. While Yoplait's decision to include kosher gelatin would disqualify Yoplait as a vegetarian yogurt, they are not difficult to find. Some of the many brands of vegetarian yogurt include Brown Cow, Stonyfield Farms, Cascade Farms and Nancy's. <P> Kosher gelatin can stem from non-animal-derived products; however, more commonly, the source of kosher gelatin is fish bones or beef skins. Although not all kosher authorities accept this practice, some authorities, such as the Orthodox Union (or OU), do permit the use of gelatin from animal sources in dairy products. Vegetarian Yogurts. While Yoplait's decision to include kosher gelatin would disqualify Yoplait as a vegetarian yogurt, they are not difficult to find. Some of the many brands of vegetarian yogurt include Brown Cow, Stonyfield Farms, Cascade Farms and Nancy's. <P> Assalam O Alaikum. Kosher gelatin used in yogurts is not a Halal ingredient in USA and Canada. Although there is a Kosher symbol K on the yogurt package. The Kosher symbol K is a generic symbol any organization can use it, mostly used by liberal kosher certifying organizations. There are two source of Kosher gelatin one is pork and other is non zabiha, non kosher slaughtered cow. These are Halal plain yogurts. Yogurts with fruits with kosher symbol OU on package are Halal only if no alcohol is used in flavors. The plain and fruit containing yogurts with kosher symbol OU are made without kosher gelatin or any gelatin. They are made with gums which function as gelatin. <P> Kosher gelatin is derived from kosher slaughtered and processed bovine sources or from kosher species of fish. Gelatin derived from fish is permitted in yogurt or other dairy foods according to most opinions.. Star-K also told us their position on the use of gelatin (a meat product) in yogurt (a dairy product). For vegetarians, gelatin presents problems because it is derived from collagen, a component of the skins and bones of animals. In 2007, the writer noticed the use of the phrase 'kosher gelatin' on some ingredient statements, including the one for McDonald's yogurt.

clinical obesity definition
|
<P> Obese: Well above one's normal weight. A person has traditionally been considered to be obese if they are more than 20% over their ideal weight. That ideal weight must take into account the person's height, age, sex, and build. Obesity has been more precisely defined by the National Institutes of Health (the NIH) as a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 30 and above. (A BMI of 30 is about 30 pounds overweight.) The BMI, a key index for relating body weight to height, is a person's weight in kilograms (kg) divided by their height in meters (m) squared. <P> Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have a negative effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and/or increased health problems. Obesity is most commonly caused by a combination of excessive food energy intake, lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders, medications, or psychiatric illness. <P> Obesity traditionally has been defined as a weight at least 20% above the weight corresponding to the lowest death rate for individuals of a specific height, gender, and age (ideal weight). Hypertrophic obesity — Excessive weight gain in adulthood, characterized by expansion of already existing fat cells. Ideal weight — Weight corresponding to the lowest death rate for individuals of a specific height, gender, and age. <P> The clinical definition of obesity is a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher. The BMI is the body’s weight in kilograms divided by the square of the body’s height in meters. Individuals who are considered clinically obese may experience a higher incidence of osteoarthritis. Obesity is usually caused by a poor diet and lack of exercise. Some antidepressant medications cause patients to gain weight. Obesity can lead to a host of physical ailments, including heart disease and stroke. <P> A widely accepted definition of obesity is body weight that is 20% or more in excess of ideal weight:height ratio according to actuarial tables. By this definition, 34% of adults in the U.S. are obese. Hypertrophic obesity — Excessive weight gain in adulthood, characterized by expansion of already existing fat cells. Ideal weight — Weight corresponding to the lowest death rate for individuals of a specific height, gender, and age. <P> Body Mass Index (BMI) is a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters. A high BMI can be an indicator of high body fatness. BMI can be used as a screening tool but is not diagnostic of the body fatness or health of an individual. To calculate BMI, see the BMI Calculator or determine BMI by finding your height and weight in this BMI Index Chart. 1 If your BMI is less than 18.5, it falls within the underweight range. Weight that is higher than what is considered as a healthy weight for a given height is described as overweight or obese. Body Mass Index, or BMI, is used as a screening tool for overweight or obesity. <P> Obesity: The state of being well above one's normal weight. A person has traditionally been considered to be obese if they are more than 20 percent over their ideal weight. That ideal weight must take into account the person's height, age, sex, and build. Obesity has been more precisely defined by the National Institutes of Health (the NIH) as a BMI of 30 and above. (A BMI of 30 is about 30 pounds overweight.). The BMI (body mass index), a key index for relating body weight to height, is a person's weight in kilograms (kg) divided by their height in meters (m)squared. <P> Obesity is an abnormal accumulation of body fat, usually 20% or more over an individual's ideal body weight. Obesity is associated with increased risk of illness, disability, and death. Hypertrophic obesity — Excessive weight gain in adulthood, characterized by expansion of already existing fat cells. Ideal weight — Weight corresponding to the lowest death rate for individuals of a specific height, gender, and age. <P> At Mayo Clinic, we take the time to listen, to find answers and to provide you the best care. Obesity is a complex disorder involving an excessive amount of body fat. Obesity isn't just a cosmetic concern. It increases your risk of diseases and health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure. <P> Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health. It is defined by body mass index (BMI) and further evaluated in terms of fat distribution via the waist–hip ratio and total cardiovascular risk factors. Obesity is most commonly caused by a combination of excessive food energy intake, lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility, although a few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders, medications, or psychiatric illness.

what is autoimmune disorder mean
|
<P> About Autoimmune Disease. More than 80 diseases occur as a result of the immune system attacking the body's own organs, tissues, and cells. Some of the more common autoimmune diseases include type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and inflammatory bowel disease. <P> Autoimmune disease: An illness that occurs when the body tissues are attacked by its own immune system. The immune system is a complex organization within the body that is designed normally to seek and destroy invaders of the body, including infectious agents. <P> Autoimmune disorders are conditions in which a person's immune system attacks the body's own cells, causing tissue destruction. Autoimmunity is accepted as the cause of a wide range of disorders, and it is suspected to be responsible for many more. <P> Immune system disorders cause abnormally low activity or over activity of the immune system. In cases of immune system over activity, the body attacks and damages its own tissues (autoimmune diseases). Immune deficiency diseases decrease the body's ability to fight invaders, causing vulnerability to infections. <P> To further understand autoimmune disorders, it is helpful to understand the workings of the immune system. The purpose of the immune system is to defend the body against attack by infectious microbes (e.g., bacteria, viruses, fungi) and foreign materials (e.g., chemicals, poisons).

<P> The normal range of hemoglobin (also haemoglobin) varies in men, women, and children. The normal range of hemoglobin in male is 13.5 to 18gm/dl (gram per decilit … er). For female it is 12 to 16gm/dl (gram per deciliter). In a children 11 to 16gm/dl (gram per deciliter). <P> For people without diabetes, the normal range for the hemoglobin A1c test is between 4% and 5.6%. Hemoglobin A1c levels between 5.7% and 6.4% indicate increased risk of diabetes, and levels of 6.5% or higher indicate diabetes. <P> The Hb level is expressed as the amount of Hb in grams (gm) per deciliter (dL) of whole blood, where 1 deciliter is 100 milliliters. The normal ranges for hemoglobin depend on the age and, sex of the person, and other factors like the start of adolescence. <P> The normal range of hemoglobin in female is 12 to 16gm/dl (gram per deciliter).

<P> If ground beef is refrigerated promptly after cooking (within 2 hours; 1 hour if the temperature is above 90 °F), it can be safely refrigerated for about 3 or 4 days. If frozen, it should keep its quality for about 4 months. <P> 1 How long does ground beef last in the fridge once it is cooked? 2 Cooked ground beef will usually stay good for 3 to 4 days in the fridge and 3 months in the freezer. <P> Beef. Beef in particular freezes well and will last quite a while without sacrificing flavor. Just how long it can be frozen depends on the individual cut and size of the beef. For example, roasts last the longest, up to 12 months when properly wrapped. Optimally, they should be used within six months. Stew and variety cuts are next on the list, lasting around 3 or 4 months. <P> Well, beef can stay in the freezer for about 1-2 Months but NO more than that. If it stays in too long, it will get frostbite and not taste as well as it would if … you got it out between the 1-2 month time period. Enjoy!! :D.

how disenfranchisement laws impacts family
|
<P> By not enfranchising ex-felons upon their release from the criminal justice system, ex-felons are denied the societal acknowledgement that the debt owed has been paid in full, and the ex-felon is once again a member of the larger community. Felon disenfranchisement laws unequivocally impact the individual ex-felon. The laws remove the very basis of recognition by the polity and the rest of society — citizenship. Andrew Shapiro writes that disenfranchisement is the harshest civil sanction imposed by a democratic society. While the published intent of felon disenfranchisement laws is to punish all the members of the ex-felon status group equally, the history of the laws indicates otherwise. Felon disenfranchisement laws are not unique to the United States. <P> Present Day Disparate Impact. The United States disenfranchisement laws are among the world’s most severe. Other countries do not restrict the voting rights of citizens who have completed their sentences -- yet many states in the United States refuse to allow such individuals the right to vote. Today, race neutral reasons are offered as a rationale for depriving American citizens a voice in our government. Whatever the underlying rationale for these laws, the impact is undeniable -- a disproportionate number of those who have lost the right to vote are African American or Hispanic. <P> America's Broken Promise. The Impact of Felon Disenfranchisement on the Black Community. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (2003), the unemployment rate for black males age sixteen and older was 11 percent in 2002, compared to 5.5 percent for white males of the same age group. As of 2002, varying forms of felon disenfranchisement laws exist in 47 states. Currently more than one million ex-offenders are disenfranchised. It is estimated that 13 percent of all black men of eligible voting age are legally restricted from voting. <P> Felony Disenfranchisement. More than 5.3 million Americans have relinquished their right to vote, not by choice, but because the law bans them from going to the polls. Many states have policies that bar ex-felons from voting <P> Impact on the Individual. For the individual ex-felon, felon disenfranchisement laws deny them the opportunity to exercise the quintessential rights of citizenship, most notably the right to vote. As a result, ex-felons tend to be alienated ex-felons from mainstream society. While the published intent of felon disenfranchisement laws is to punish all the members of the ex-felon status group equally, the history of the laws indicates otherwise. Felon disenfranchisement laws are not unique to the United States. <P> There is clear evidence that state felony disenfranchisement laws have a disparate impact on African Americans and other minority groups. At present, 7.7% of the adult African-American population, or one out of every thirteen, is disenfranchised. Information on the disenfranchisement rates of other groups is extremely limited, but the available data suggests felony disenfranchisement laws may also disproportionately impact individuals of Hispanic origin and others. <P> 1 “The felony disenfranchisement laws, policies and practices of the United States deny the right to vote to a large segment of its minority population in a manner inconsistent with the general principles of international human rights law.”. 1 “The 11 most extreme states restrict voting rights even after a person has served his or her prison sentence and is no longer on probation or parole; such individuals in those states make up approximately 45% of the entire disenfranchised population.”. 2 Felony Disenfranchisement Laws in The United States. <P> 1 Democracy Imprisoned A Review of the Prevalence and Impact of Felony Disenfranchisement Laws in the United States, [PDF]. 2 The Sentencing Project et al., September, 2013. “ 3 In three states, at least one out of every five African-American adults is disenfranchised: Florida (23%), Kentucky (22%), and Virginia (20%).”. 1 “The 11 most extreme states restrict voting rights even after a person has served his or her prison sentence and is no longer on probation or parole; such individuals in those states make up approximately 45% of the entire disenfranchised population.”. 2 Felony Disenfranchisement Laws in The United States. <P> 7 Though felony disenfranchisement laws are not technically a part of criminal laws, disparities in the enforcement and prosecution of crimes and in sentencing contribute significantly to the disparate impact of disenfranchisement laws. Parolees cannot vote in thirty-six states; thirty-one states prohibit probationers from voting; and three states permanently deny the right to vote to all ex-offenders. Nationally, these disenfranchisement laws prohibit 1 in 41 Americans from exercising the right to vote.

phylum traits of a starfish
|
<P> Characteristics: The five armed common starfish may reach a diameter of 52 cm. This is one of the largest and most frequently encountered sea stars along the Norwegian coast. The color is usually orange, often with a purple tint. Different shades of brown is often seen as well. <P> Echinoderms are all marine and nearly all are benthic, meaning they live on the sea floor. No parasitic species of echinoderms are known, though a number of species live commensally with other organisms such as fish, other echinoderms, polychaetes, molluscs, Platyhelminths, ctenophores and protozoa. They are distinguished from the other phyla by several main characteristics. As you can see from this list they are a morphologically very diverse group, at first it may not be obvious how they are all related, but despite their various forms they do all possess the characteristics outlined above. They are an ancient and very successful phylum of invertebrates with around 6,000 living members. <P> Sea stars belong to the Phylum Echinodermata. That means they are related to sand dollars (yes, they are a real animal), sea urchins, and sea cucumbers. All echinoderms have five-point radial symmetry, which means that their body plan has five sections (or multiples thereof) arranged around a central disk. Starfish (sea stars) are beautiful animals that can be a variety of colors, shapes and sizes, although all resemble a star. While some appear smooth, they all have spines covering their upper surface and a soft underside. <P> The larvae settle to the sea floor and adopt their distinctive adult radial symmetry. Sea Stars. Sea stars, also known as “starfish”, are probably the most well known echinoderm of the sea. The common name ‘starfish’ is quickly being replaced by the more accurate term ‘sea star’. Since starfish have no relation to fish, the term ‘sea star’ is preferable. The most striking feature of all echinoderms is their pentamerous radial symmetry. That is, the body can be divided into five parts (or appendages) which point outward from the center of the body. Interestingly, although most mature echinoderms are radially symmetrical, the larvae usually have bilater <P> The first echinoderms (called carpoids) did not have any radial symmetry which shows that this characteristic was acquired later in the group's evolutionary history. Echinoderms are often difficult animals to kill and many have well developed powers of regeneration. Early attempts to control the Crown-of-Thorns starfish by chopping it up into several pieces merely resulted in helping it disperse as each piece grew into a new animal. As you can see from this list they are a morphologically very diverse group, at first it may not be obvious how they are all related, but despite their various forms they do all possess the characteristics outlined above. They are an ancient and very successful phylum of invertebrates with around 6,000 living members. <P> The more notably distinct trait, which most echinoderms have, is their remarkable powers of regeneration of tissue, organs, limbs, and of asexual reproduction, and in some cases, complete regeneration from a single limb. Echinoderms are found at every ocean depth, from the intertidal zone to the abyssal zone. The phylum contains about 7000 living species, making it the second-largest grouping of deuterostomes (a superphylum), after the chordates (which include the vertebrates, such as birds, fishes, mammals, and reptiles). <P> Phylum. Starfish belong to the phylum Echinodermata, which is the largest phylum without any members that live on land or in fresh water. Echinoderms have five-point radial symmetry as adults, but are bilaterally symmetrical as larvae. They have an endoskeleton consisting of calcareous plates that often include spines. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. Although fish and starfish both belong to the kingdom Animalia -- which is the largest division of taxonomic classification -- starfish lack a spine, and therefore belong to a different phylum than true fish. For this reason, biologists refer to them as sea stars. <P> Class. The class Asteroidea consists of starfish, or sea stars. Most starfish are predaceous (i.e., they hunt and eat other organisms). Some species in this class can have up to 50 arms, but most have only five. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. Although fish and starfish both belong to the kingdom Animalia -- which is the largest division of taxonomic classification -- starfish lack a spine, and therefore belong to a different phylum than true fish. For this reason, biologists refer to them as sea stars. <P> When you have finished this page, take the Echinoderm Quiz: Starfish belong to a group or phylum of animals called echinoderms. This means spiny skinned in Greek. Echinoderms live in salt water only. They sgenerally have five arms and dwell at the bottom of oceans' levels. There are around 6000 species of echinoderms. A Echinoderm has a mouth and stomach area. Some have a mouth on the bottom and an anus on the top.Starfish can actually turn their stomachs outside of their body and insert it into its prey's such as a clam. Echinoderms have a relatively big gut area.

<P> Birgus. The coconut crab (Birgus latro) is a type of land hermit crab with a spectacular appearance and intriguing biology. Able to grow to relatively gigantic proportions, the coconut crab is probably the largest terrestrial arthropod in the world. 1 The coconut crab’s claws are powerful enough to crack open coconuts, and can be used to lift weights of up to 28 kg. 2 If coconuts are not readily available on the ground, the coconut crab can climb trees and cut them down. <P> Like hermit crabs, juvenile coconut crabs use empty gastropod shells for protection, but the adults develop a tough exoskeleton on their abdomen and stop carrying a shell. Coconut crabs have organs known as branchiostegal lungs , which are used instead of the vestigial gills for breathing. The coconut crab can take a coconut from the ground and cut it to a husk nut, take it with its claw, climb up a tree 10 m (33 ft) high and drop the husk nut, to access the coconut meat inside. They often descend from the trees by falling, and can survive a fall of at least 4.5 metres (15 ft) unhurt. <P> 1 The coconut crab is the world’s largest terrestrial arthropod, growing up to one metre across. 2 The coconut crab’s claws are powerful enough to crack open coconuts, and can be used to lift weights of up to 28 kg. 3 If coconuts are not readily available on the ground, the coconut crab can climb trees and cut them down. 1 The coconut crab’s claws are powerful enough to crack open coconuts, and can be used to lift weights of up to 28 kg. 2 <P> At up to 1 m (3 ft) long, coconut crabs are not simply the largest land crabs. They are the largest arthropods, the group that includes insects, spiders and crustaceans, that live on land. The Japanese spider crab is bigger, but it has the advantage of living underwater where its weight is supported. <P> The coconut crab is the only species of the genus Birgus, and is related to the terrestrial hermit crabs of the genus Coenobita. It shows a number of adaptations to life on land. The coconut crab can take a coconut from the ground and cut it to a husk nut, take it with its claw, climb up a tree 10 m (33 ft) high and drop the husk nut, to access the coconut meat inside. They often descend from the trees by falling, and can survive a fall of at least 4.5 metres (15 ft) unhurt. <P> The Coconut Crab is native to most of the Indo-pacific islands and is the largest living arthropod in the world today. Generally a nocturnal creature the Coconut Crab will hide throughout the day time and emerge at night to forage. The name ‘Coconut Crab’ is derived from the crabs unique ability to use its powerful pincers to break open fallen coconuts to get at the nutty goodness inside although they have also been known to steal shiny items like cutlery and kitchen utensils from peoples homes if they get the chance. <P> Coconut crabs (also known as robber crabs because they are believed to have a magpie-like. penchant for taking shiny objects) are the world's largest land invertebrates (or terrestrial arthropods), a type of land-based hermit crab that eventually abandons carrying a shell as it matures and its soft abdomen hardens. COCONUT CRABS. The coconut crab is a large edible land crab related to the hermit crab and are found in the tropical Indian and Pacific Oceans. They eat coconuts for a living! How would you like to be on an island and come across a crab that is more than. <P> Adult coconut crabs feed on fruits, nuts, seeds, and the pith of fallen trees, but will eat carrion and other organic matter opportunistically. The species is popularly associated with the coconut, and has been widely reported to climb trees to pick coconuts, which it then opens to eat the insides. The coconut crab can take a coconut from the ground and cut it to a husk nut, take it with its claw, climb up a tree 10 m (33 ft) high and drop the husk nut, to access the coconut meat inside.

It is the largest land-living arthropod in the world, and is probably at the upper size limit for terrestrial animals with exoskeletons in recent Earth atmosphere, with a weight of up to 4.1 kg (9.0 lb). The coconut crab is the only species of the genus Birgus, and is related to the terrestrial hermit crabs of the genus Coenobita. It shows a number of adaptations to life on land. <P> Giant Monster Crab climbs everything! The coconut crab is the largest land-living arthropod in the world. Also known as the robber crab, the coconut crab is a species of terrestrial hermit crab found on islands across the Indian Ocean, parts of the Pacific Ocean and as far east as the Gambier Islands.

(Hold down FN and hit the mouse on the paper) it will hopefully unlock. But if not just try again. <P> Just make sure that you have the touchpad enabled. To see if you have the touchpad enabled, hold the Fn key and press F9. The combination Fn-F9 locks and unlocks the touchpad. If pressing Fn-F9 once, twice, thrice does not seem to lock/unlock your touchpad.. then you might not have the Toshiba hotkeys working or enabled. So lets forget it and try step 2. <P> Hello CHESAPEAKE9126, Click select control panel hardware and sound mouse touchpad tab were you can turn it back on or reset to default as well as adjustments to your devices. Let us know either way if this helps you. Make it a great day! :)_825 replied on January 17, 2012. There is a button on your keyboard next to the alt and fn button they are at the bottom left of your keyboard, when your touchpad is locked thats how you go to the start menu. <P> 1 Stay calm, do not break the mouse pad. 2 Also how to disable the annoying pinch zoom feature: 3 Select the Device Settings tab. 4 Select the Synaptic Touch Pad device and click Settings. 5 In the Properties for Synaptic Touch Pad window, expand the Pointer Motion topic. 6 Select Pinch option and uncheck it. 1 Also how to disable the annoying pinch zoom feature: 2 Select the Device Settings tab. 3 Select the Synaptic Touch Pad device and click Settings. 4 In the Properties for Synaptic Touch Pad window, expand the Pointer Motion topic. 5 <P> Choose the Mouse icon or type Mouse in the field in the upper-right corner. Click the Enter button and then click the Mouse link. Press the Hardware tab or the tab to the right of it that specifies the type of touch pad you have. If you are under the Hardware tab, highlight the touch pad in the list of devices and click the Enable button. Your laptop comes with a touch pad that acts as a mouse. Instead of connecting a mouse each time you want to use your laptop, you can use the touch pad that is integrated underneath the keyboard. This comes in handy when you are in a tight spot such as in a classroom or on an airplane.

price to charge for mowing a lawn
|
<P> For example: Some people with an employee will charge for a job based on how long it will take one person to do the job. If you charge $50.00 an hour and you bid two hours for a large job (Price based on how long it takes for you to mow it by yourself), you will get paid $100 whether it takes you one hour or two. If there is a lot of fence or trees to trim around, that requires a lot of time. He charged $25 for a small lawn and $35 for a large lawn. The price was not based on established prices, but rather the weekly total really sounded good to him. Roger knew his prices were lower than everybody else, but since his situation was different it didn't matter to him. <P> How to Estimate the Job Price for a Lawn Care Business. Before you start your own lawn care business, you must understand how to estimate the price for each client. Every lawn is different, and some may require more effort than others. <P> Some price ranges are $100 to $200 per month so if you want to find a good price, we recommend getting a few estimates. 1 Mowing ($270) - Mowing the lawn is traditionally a DIY project, but it's an easy area to neglect and worth the cost to outsource. 1 Mowing ($270) - Mowing the lawn is traditionally a DIY project, but it's an easy area to neglect and worth the cost to outsource. 2 Fertilizing ($350) - Lawn fertilization ensures soil stability and plant health. <P> A drop-gate fee is a fee that you will charge, regardless of the size of the job, for simply pulling up to the residence and dropping the gate on your mower trailer. In other words, this is a minimum service charge, according to How-To-Start-A-Lawn-Care-Business.com. Decide on a rate that will make it worthwhile for you to show up on a scheduled day even if it means a trip across the county where you have no other work that day. Usually a $25 fee should cover it. <P> Average lawn mowing prices range from about $30 to $80 per visit, depending on square footage, and large cutting projects can cost more as a result. Grass cutting rates will also vary depending on the frequency of mowing. If you have your lawn trimmed too infrequently, it will be more difficult to maintain. They are also based on square footage, though there is a minimum cost. <P> Our free calculator uses recent, trusted data to estimate costs for your Small Lawn Mowing project. For a basic 500 square feet project in zip code 47474, the benchmark cost to Mow a Lawn ranges between $0.03 - $0.14 per square foot* . To estimate costs for your project: 1. Set Project Zip Code Enter the Zip Code for the location where labor is hired and materials purchased. 2. <P> Hiring a professional to care for your grass will help avoid patches, browning and pests or diseases. On average, homeowners spend about $165 on lawn services although that varies based on the types of treatments a lawn needs. Here are some cost considerations when youre looking at services. The national average estimate for lawn mowing and maintenance is between $214 and $322. It will often include a cut, weeding, trimming and pesticide treatment. Some services will price individually, while others will have monthly or weekly packages. Grass cutting rates will also vary depending on the frequency of mowing. If you have your lawn trimmed too infrequently, it will be more difficult to maintain. They are also based on square footage, though there is a minimum cost. <P> Offer a discount for multiple lawn cuttings. To encourage repeat business, give previous customers a discount for every second or third cutting. For example, customers pay the regular price for two lawn cuttings, and you agree to reduce every third lawn service by $5 or $10. For example, you may only charge $20 to cut the front and back of a small property that only takes 30 to 60 minutes, but charge $40 for a property that takes twice as long to complete. Step 2. Charge more for troublesome areas or extra services. <P> The lawn care estimating calculator tells us the total time for this job is 39 minutes. At $50/hour plus the difficulty index, that gives a price quote of $35.00. Estimating residential jobs is easy once you know how to work the numbers. Subscribe to my channel for more videos on how to run your lawn care business. <P> Step 1. Establish a base price. The average cost to cut a lawn is between $20 and $40. Determine a base price for small, medium and large-sized properties. For example, you may only charge $20 to cut the front and back of a small property that only takes 30 to 60 minutes, but charge $40 for a property that takes twice as long to complete. Step 2. Charge more for troublesome areas or extra services.

<P> Neuromuscular Re-Education is a therapeutic technique that is used to improve balance, coordination, posture, kinesthetic sense and proprioception (the sense of the relative position of neighboring parts of the body and the amount of effort being employed in movement). There is no precise description of what a Neuromuscular Re-Education session may entail. Treatment can include one-legged standing exercises to improve balance, strengthening exercises that target a specific area of the body or stretching routines to increase both flexibility and range of motion in an injured limb. <P> Medical Definition of REEDUCATION. 1. 2. : training to develop new behaviors (as attitudes or habits) to replace others that are considered undesirable. <P> The American Medical Association defines neuromuscular reeducation as the use of therapeutic techniques for the purpose of improving impaired movement, balance, coordination, decreased kinesthetic sense, and impaired proprioception. Although neuromuscular reeducation therapy includes several modalities, the procedures used at Strictly Therapeutic involve proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) and muscle energy techniques (MET). <P> Neuromuscular Re-education. Neuromuscular re-education is a technique used by rehabilitation therapists to restore normal movement. Together, your nerves and muscles work to produce movements. Nerves send signals between your muscles and your brain about when, where, and how fast to move. It is a complex process. This can result from trauma, medical conditions, and neurological conditions, such as stroke and traumatic brain injury. Neuromuscular re-education is one method used by rehabilitation therapists to facilitate the return of normal movement in persons with neuromuscular impairments. <P> 10 hilariously insightful foreign words. Neuromuscular reeducation is a general term that refers to techniques that attempt to retrain the neuromuscular system to function properly. The basis of this idea is that the formation of certain patterns of communication between muscles and nerves allow people to perform simple everyday acts such as climbing stairs. A popular form of neuromuscular reeducation that focuses on the release of these fibrous adhesions is Rolfing. These therapies in general tend to place greater importance on body awareness than many standard physical therapies. <P> ABSTRACT | REFERENCES. Neuromuscular reeducation deals with retraining the brain and spinal cord in voluntary and reflex motor activities.

what does bloke mean in australia
|
<P> All Sunshine Coast. Cairns area & Port Douglas. It wasn't easy but we've tried to include uniquely Australian slang here and to exclude British and American slang even though these are commonly used in Australia. We see no point in informing the world that fridge is Australian slang for a refrigerator. <P> bloke. You stupid americans are all wrong. Bloke is simply a British slang term for 'man/guy', with perhaps slight connotations of masculinity, and used only in an informal setting. Unlike 'guy' it is not normally used vocatively, as in 'hey you blokes'. It's used in UK and Aus. in the same way guy and dude are used in America. According to a local newspaper in the Midlands, the word originated in the Black country (an area near Birmingham, UK), but I'm really not sure how much truth is in that! 'Look at that fat bloke over there!'. <P> In Australia, a bloke is a unique masculine archetype associated with the country's national identity. The Aussie bloke has been portrayed in important works of art and associated with famous Australians, while in the United Kingdom, bloke is an everyday term for any man. In Australia, where it was used early on, the term meant the boss or someone of status. Sources report that in the US the term was in use by the late 19th century, although it is much less common now, and mainly is used in the sense of stupid or worthless person. <P> i always wondered what the word means its 111% aboriginal i have read somewhere that cpt. James Cook ordered his ruthless thugs to take care of the Koori Aboriginal people one of the white thugs was beating this native guy up and than asked him what do you call this land the aboriginal man said Australia! it could... Best Answer: ''Australia'' is from the Latin ''Australis'' meaning ''southern', as in the 'Aurora Australis', the southern equivalent of the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis). <P> Re: What exactly does bloke mean? No you are all incorrect. A Bloke was originally 'The Block Man' at executions. His job was to pick the head out of the basket after the executioner had finished 'hacking' - the most famous executioner was Jack Ketch who hacked many a head off. There are good blokes and bad blokes, but most blokes are allright.Some blokes, of course, are 'not worth feeding', but most of the blokes you will meet will be prepared to put their hand in thier pockets and buy you a drink-providing thier are more good blokes than bad blokes. <P> Bloke is a slang term for a man common in Ireland, Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and South Africa. The earliest known usage is from the early 19th century, when it was recorded as a London slang term. In Australia, where it was used early on, the term meant the boss or someone of status. Sources report that in the US the term was in use by the late 19th century, although it is much less common now, and mainly is used in the sense of stupid or worthless person. <P> A bloke, or Aussie bloke, is a masculine archetype unique to Australia.

<P> Receptor: 1. In cell biology, a structure on the surface of a cell (or inside a cell) that selectively receives and binds a specific substance. There are many receptors. There is a receptor for (insulin; there is a receptor for low-density lipoproteins (LDL); etc. To take an example, the receptor for substance P, a molecule that acts as a messenger for the sensation of pain, is a unique harbor on the cell surface where substance P docks. Without this receptor, substance P cannot dock and cannot deliver its message of pain <P> Full Definition of RECEPTOR. : receiver: as a: a cell or group of cells that receives stimuli: sense organ b: a chemical group or molecule (as a protein) on the cell surface or in the cell interior that has an affinity for a specific chemical group, molecule, or virus. 1. : a cell or group of cells that receives stimuli: sense organ. 2. <P> A molecule that binds to a receptor is called a ligand, and can be a peptide (short protein) or another small molecule such as a neurotransmitter, hormone, pharmaceutical drug, toxin, or parts of the outside of a virus or microbe. Each receptor is linked to a specific cellular biochemical pathway. While numerous receptors are found in most cells, each receptor will only bind with ligands of a particular structure, much like how locks will only accept specifically shaped keys. <P> A receptor is located on a cell membrane. Any neuronic transmission, hormone, etc. that cannot get inside of the cell's membrane will sit on the receptor in order to pass its message along to the cell. When the molecule sits on the receptor, it causes a series of reactions to occur inside of the cell. From the series of reactions that occur inside of the cell, the message is passed along, and the cell will perform as indicated by the molecule on the cell receptor. <P> Skin receptors respond to stimuli such as touch and pressure and signal the brain by activating portions of the nervous system. Receptors in the nose detect odors. 2. A cell structure or site that is capable of combining with a hormone, antigen, or other chemical substance. stretch receptor-a receptor in a muscle that responds to stretching of the muscle tissue. papilla-a small nipple-shaped protuberance concerned with taste, touch, or smell; the papillae of the tongue. sensory system-the body's system of sense organs. <P> receptor. 1. a molecule on the surface or within a cell that recognizes and binds with specific molecules, producing a specific effect in the cell; e.g., the cell-surface receptors for antigens or cytoplasmic receptors for steroid hormones. 2. a sensory nerve ending that responds to various stimuli. <P> In biochemistry and pharmacology, a receptor is a protein molecule usually found embedded within the plasma membrane surface of a cell that receives chemical signals from outside the cell. Each receptor is linked to a specific cellular biochemical pathway. While numerous receptors are found in most cells, each receptor will only bind with ligands of a particular structure, much like how locks will only accept specifically shaped keys. <P> receptor, sensory, n receptor system built on the theory that receptor organs are specialized and respond to the law of specific nerve energies; i.e., each type of end-organ, no matter what stimulus is applied, will respond (if it responds) with only a single appropriate type of sensation. 1. a molecule on the surface or within a cell that recognizes and binds with specific molecules, producing a specific effect in the cell; e.g., the cell-surface receptors for antigens or cytoplasmic receptors for steroid hormones. 2. a sensory nerve ending that responds to various stimuli. <P> the cell of a sensory receptor responds to a specific energy change in its environment and initiates a corresponding sensory input. adrenergic r's. receptors for epinephrine or norepinephrine, such as those on effector organs innervated by postganglionic adrenergic fibers of the sympathetic nervous system. 1. a molecule on the surface or within a cell that recognizes and binds with specific molecules, producing a specific effect in the cell; e.g., the cell-surface receptors for antigens or cytoplasmic receptors for steroid hormones. 2. a sensory nerve ending that responds to various stimuli. <P> Medical Definition of RECEPTOR. 1. : a cell or group of cells that receives stimuli: sense organ. 2. : a chemical group or molecule (as a protein) on the cell surface or in the cell interior that has an affinity for a specific chemical group, molecule, or virus. 3

what is a voc
|
<P> VOC stands for Volatile Organic Compounds. VOCs are emitted as gas from certain products commonly used in the home, which in high quantities can pose serious health risks. <P> A VOC is a Volatile Organic Compound. The way a chemist uses that phrase, the word volatile describes a liquid that evaporates at room temperature, and the word organic means it is a compound that contains carbon. <P> Some steps you can take to reduce your exposure to VOCs in the home are: 1. Source control: Remove or reduce the number of products in your home that give off VOCs. Only purchase amounts of chemicals that you know you will use and carefully follow directions on product labels. <P> And, thank you very much for your time and expertise. A: VOC stands for volatile organic compounds. There are the solvents and other compounds that evaporate into the air and contribute to the formation of smog (ozone). Typical VOCs include the solvents in paints, adhesives and inks. <P> Common VOCs: Methylene Chloride. Products which contain methylene chloride include paint strippers, adhesive removers and aerosol spray paints. According to the EPA, methylene chloride is converted to carbon monoxide in the body and can cause symptoms associated with exposure to carbon monoxide, which can be fatal. <P> VOCs are numerous, varied, and ubiquitous. They include both human-made and naturally occurring chemical compounds. Most scents or odours are of VOCs. VOCs play an important role in communication between plants, and messages from plants to animals. Some VOCs are dangerous to human health or cause harm to the environment. Anthropogenic VOCs are regulated by law, especially indoors, where concentrations are the highest. <P> “Volatile organic compound” or VOC is the name given to a substance that contains carbon and that evaporates (becomes a vapor) or “off-gases” at room temperature. Some examples of VOCs include benzene, methylene chloride, hexane, toluene, trichloroethane, styrene, heptane, and perchloroethylene. <P> This fact sheet focuses on certain kinds of chemicals called volatile organic compounds or VOCs that are found in many products that we commonly use. It is designed to help you think about what VOCs may be present in your indoor air and steps you can take to reduce them.

<P> Carcinogen: A substance or agent that causes cancer. Related terms include the adjective carcinogenic and the nouns carcinogenesis and carcinogenicity.. One of the best-known carcinogens is ionizing radiation. <P> There are many examples of carcinogens in our environment. Most people are aware of the common carcinogens. These include tobacco and tobacco smoke, pesticides used to control bugs, asbestos, radon, and arsenic. What we aren't aware of is how many carcinogens are present in our everyday products, foods, and environment. Lesson Summary. A carcinogen is a substance that is capable of causing cancer. Carcinogens do this by increasing the rate of cellular division, which increases the probability of abnormal DNA synthesis. There are many known carcinogens. Some of these include tobacco, pesticides, and asbestos. <P> A carcinogen is any substance that has the potential to cause cancer in living tissues. Carcinogen exposure can occur from the inhalation, ingestion, or absorption of many different types of substances into our bodies. Lesson Summary.

However, fat-attenuation is predominant within the TRAM flap at CT, as opposed to the irregular soft-tissue attenuation of fibroglandular tissue mixed with fat seen in <P> This patient has small breasts and has a small amount of abdominal tissue available. This is the perfect indication for a free transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap to maximize the amount of tissue available for reconstruction. Patient 1. Postoperative view. A diagram is shown below. Diagram of the blood supply to the free transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap. Note that the deep inferior epigastric vessels supply the flap, the primary blood supply to the lower abdomen. <P> An autologous myocutaneous flap consisting of abdominal skin, subcutaneous fat, the rectus abdominis muscle, and adjoining vasculature is used for reconstruction of the breast following mastectomy. CT. The shape of the TRAM flap is the same as that of the native breast. However, fat-attenuation is predominant within the TRAM flap at CT, as opposed to the irregular soft-tissue attenuation of fibroglandular tissue mixed with fat seen in <P> Free-flap breast reconstruction is a type of autologous-tissue breast reconstruction applied after mastectomy for breast cancer, without the emplacement of a breast implant prosthesis. Technically, the harvesting of the TRAM free-flap is relatively easy and fast; because it possesses a robust blood supply, there is a low risk of tissue necrosis, either of the flap or of the adipocyte fat, and the reconstructed breast can tolerate oncologic radiotherapy. <P> Indications. Rectus abdominis free tissue transfer allows for transfer of a large vascularized segment of skin and muscle from the abdominal wall to its intended recipient site. Patients in whom other flaps would be too thin can benefit from this flap. Although not optimal for small or shallow defects, the rectus flap provides the reconstructive surgeon with an excellent option to reconstruct large defects. This flap is most commonly used for glossectomy defects, orbital/maxillary defects, and (as a muscle-only flap) skull base reconstruction. <P> transverse rectus abdominus musculocutaneous flap. musculocutaneous flap, based inferiorly or (more commonly) superiorly on the deep inferior epigastric or superior epigastric (respectively) arteries that supply the rectus abdominus muscle. Most commonly used to close defects of the trunk or (most commonly) for breast reconstruction. <P> The rectus abdominis flap is favored for this application because of its ease of harvest and reliability. It has been used extensively as both a pedicled and free flap for breast reconstruction. It can be harvested as a muscle-only flap or as a myocutaneous flap. Although not optimal for small or shallow defects, the rectus flap provides the reconstructive surgeon with an excellent option to reconstruct large defects. This flap is most commonly used for glossectomy defects, orbital/maxillary defects, and (as a muscle-only flap) skull base <P> Please try again later.

how long does an ankle injury take to heal
|
<P> Grade 3 Sprain. A grade 3 sprain is the most serious injury with the longest healing/recovery time. A sprain of this severity can easily take 8 to 12 weeks or even longer to heal completely. Physicians usually immobilize the joint and prescribe physical therapy, just as with a grade 2 sprain. However, the immobilization period is longer, as is the physical-therapy program. Most grade 2 sprains take four to six weeks to heal. A grade 3 sprain is the most serious injury with the longest healing/recovery time. A sprain of this severity can easily take 8 to 12 weeks or even longer to heal completely. <P> It usually takes 5 to 14 days to recover from a grade one ankle sprain. This is when slight stretching and damage occurs to the ligaments. With a grade one sprain, there is slight instability, pain, swelling, joint stiffness, and trouble walking. Grade two sprains can take 4 to 6 weeks to heal. This involves partial tearing of the ligaments. Signs of a grade two sprain include instability, moderate to severe pain, swelling, stiffness and possible bruising. Grade three sprains can take 8 to 12 weeks to heal. This is a complete tear of the ligament. With grade three sprains, there is a lot of instability within the joint, severe pain when the injury occurs and no pain after injury, severe swelling and excessive bruising <P> Answer: Well, when considering how long it might take for a sprain to heal, you need to consider that there are varying degrees of sprain injuries. There's a grade one, where the ligament that holds the joint in place is stretched. There's sometimes a grade two, where you can get some tearing of the ligament, or a grade three, where it is torn completely. As you can imagine, that's going to really impact just how long it takes for that ligament to heal itself back together. General rule of thumb, say for ankle sprain, perhaps a grade one: two, three weeks; grade two: four weeks; and a grade three: sometimes four, six weeks -- sometimes longer. Comments. <P> Home Treatment. Ankle sprains take an average of 6 weeks to heal but can take can up to 4 months, depending on the severity. An ankle brace, air stirrup, hiking boots, or other form of ankle support should be worn during this time to protect the ligaments <P> Your body's immediate response to a physical trauma is to flood the area with blood. This causes swelling or inflammation. To reduce swelling and pain, apply ice wrapped a towel to the foot for about 30 minutes every two to three hours for the first 48 to 72 hours. At the same time, be careful not to over-ice your foot. Do not sleep with the icepack on or let it touch the skin directly, as this could lead to a cold bur <P> General rule of thumb, say for ankle sprain, perhaps a grade one: two, three weeks; grade two: four weeks; and a grade three: sometimes four, six weeks -- sometimes longer.

Comments. <P> The outer bone of leg is (known as a fibula). If it is a fracture then it is a significant injury. You will need to be protected in a cast for at least six weeks. Ligament injuries of the ankle can at times be worse than fractures. This is because the healing potential of fractures is far better than of ligaments. Ligament strains are also of different grades.

The Bal-27 is a moderate damage assault rifle with low range. It can kill in three hits up to 5 meters, four hits up to 30 meters, and is a five hit kill from there. This low range and damage is offset by its high rate of fire. The Bal-27 has some good variants to use. The Carbon variant increases the minimum damage to 25, allowing the player to score a four-hit kill beyond 30 meters, making the weapon more effective for long range engagements. <P> Both BAL and BAC mean the same thing.

insulin is produced in cells called
|
<P> Insulin is a hormone. Hormones are chemical substances that regulate the cells of the body and are produced by special glands. The hormone insulin is a main regulator of the glucose (sugar) levels in the blood. Insulin is produced in the pancreas. To be more specific, it's produced by the beta cells in the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. When we eat, glucose levels rise, and insulin is released into the bloodstream. The insulin acts like a key, opening up cells so they can take in the sugar and use it as an energy source <P> Background. Insulin is a hormone that regulates the amount of glucose (sugar) in the blood and is required for the body to function normally. Insulin is produced by cells in the pancreas, called the islets of Langerhans. Insulin allows the blood glucose to be transported from the blood into the cells. Cells have an outer wall, called a membrane, that controls what enters and exits the cell. Researchers do not yet know exactly how insulin works, but they do know insulin binds to receptors on the cell's membrane. <P> Raised blood glucose triggers the cells in the islets of Langerhans to release the necessary amount of insulin. Insulin allows the blood glucose to be transported from the blood into the cells. Cells have an outer wall, called a membrane, that controls what enters and exits the cell. Researchers do not yet know exactly how insulin works, but they do know insulin binds to receptors on the cell's membrane. <P> Insulin is a hormone made by an organ located behind the stomach called the pancreas. Here, insulin is released into the bloodstream by specialised cells called beta-cells found in areas of the pancreas called islets of Langerhans (the term insulin comes from the Latin insula meaning island). Insulin can also be given as a medicine for patients with diabetes because they do not make enough of their own. <P> Insulin is a protein chain or peptide hormone. There are 51 amino acids in an insulin molecule. It has a molecular weight of 5808 Da. Insulin is produced in the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. The name insulin comes from the Latin ''insula'' for island from the cells that produce the hormone in the pancreas. Insulin's structure varies slightly between species of animal. <P> A HealthyWomen answered. Your body gets most of its energy from glucose, a simple sugar that comes from carbohydrates in your diet. To get this glucose into cells requires a hormone called insulin, produced in the pancreas by special cells called beta cells. When you eat and your digestive system breaks down food into glucose, beta cells receive a signal to make insulin. <P> Your body uses glucose for energy. Your blood carries glucose to all cells in the body. Insulin is a hormone made by the pancreas. It is needed to move glucose from the blood into the body cells where it is used for energy. There are two types of diabetes. In type 1 diabetes your body stops making insulin because the body's immune system destroys the insulin producing cells (called beta cells) in the pancreas <P> In Human Anatomy and Physiology. Yes, there are cells in the islets of Langerhans, which are situated in the pancreas, called the beta cells which release insulin which causes blood glucose levels to decrease … . There are also alpha cells which release glucagon which cause blood glucose levels to increase. Alexander Rowan. Insulin is produced by the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. These are cells scattered throughout the pancreas, about a million of them in a healthy adult. Their are five … different types of these cells. <P> Continue ReadingPatient Guide to Insulin: About Diabetes. Insulin is a hormone made by the pancreas that allows your body to use sugar (glucose) from carbohydrates in the food that you eat for energy or to store glucose for future use. Insulin helps keeps your blood sugar level from getting too high (hyperglycemia) or too low (hypoglycemia). If your body does not produce enough insulin or your cells are resistant to the effects of insulin, you may develop hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), which can cause long-term complications if the blood sugar levels stay elevated for long periods of time. <P> Insulin (from the Latin, insula meaning island) is a peptide hormone produced by beta cells in the pancreas. It regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats by promoting the absorption of glucose from the blood to skeletal muscles and fat tissue and by causing fat to be stored rather than used for energy.

what foods causes gout
|
<P> Gout, a painful form of arthritis, occurs when high levels of uric acid in the blood cause crystals to form and accumulate around a joint. Uric acid is produced when the body breaks down a chemical called purine. Purine occurs naturally in your body, but it's also found in certain foods. <P> Foods that Cause Gout. Gout is a type of arthritis characterized by joint inflammation and pain, arising due to an excess of uric acid in blood and synovial fluid. Unhealthy lifestyle coupled with purine-rich diet is one of the causative factors for gout. An excess of uric acid can occur due to a failure in the excretion of uric acid, genetic predisposition, obesity, cancer as also due to certain medications. Apart from these factors, certain foods with a rich purine content are also linked to an excess of uric acid in the body. <P> Foods to avoid if you have gout. by Anne Harding. Gout is an extremely painful inflammation of the joints caused by a buildup of needle-sharp uric-acid crystals. The big toe is the most common target, but gout can attack the feet, ankles, knees, and hands as well. An attack or “flare” can last for days or months. Men and obese people are at greater risk <P> Gout is caused by an elevated uric acid level in the bloodstream and accumulation of uric acid crystals. Uric acid crystal deposits in the joint cause inflammation of the joint leading to pain, redness, heat, and swelling. 1 Gout is a type of arthritis that causes inflammation, usually in one joint, that begins suddenly. 2 Gouty arthritis is caused by the deposition of crystals of uric acid in a joint. 3 Gout can cause symptoms and signs such as. 4 nodules under the skin called tophi, 5 joint redness, 6 swollen joints, 7 joint pain, <P> Gout is caused by too much uric acid in the blood (hyperuricemia). The exact cause of hyperuricemia sometimes isn't known, although inherited factors (genes) seem to play a role. Uric acid may form crystals that build up in the joints. This causes the pain and other symptoms. <P> As mentioned earlier, purine-rich foods cause gout by increasing the uric acid levels of blood. However, not just the amount of purine but the food family also matters. Research indicates that purine-rich vegetables are safer than purine-rich meat and fish, as far as their association with gout is concerned. An excess of uric acid can occur due to a failure in the excretion of uric acid, genetic predisposition, obesity, cancer as also due to certain medications. Apart from these factors, certain foods with a rich purine content are also linked to an excess of uric acid in the body. <P> Advertisement. Gout is caused by a condition known as hyperuricemia, the buildup of uric acid crystals in blood. The excess uric acid gets deposited in joints and tendons, in the form of sharp crystals. Such deposits cause swelling and pain in the affected joints. An excess of uric acid can occur due to a failure in the excretion of uric acid, genetic predisposition, obesity, cancer as also due to certain medications. Apart from these factors, certain foods with a rich purine content are also linked to an excess of uric acid in the body. <P> Organ meats, including sweetbreads, are especially bad for people who are suffering from gout. Even foods that are related to meat, such as chicken broth, beef broth, caviar and bouillon, might cause high levels of uric acid. Low-Risk or Beneficial Foods. Dairy products and vegetables can also be high in purines, but research suggests that they likely are not foods that cause gout. Healthcare professionals, however, still recommend eating only moderate amounts of purine-rich vegetables such as spinach, mushrooms and asparagus. <P> When you have gout, you have higher than normal levels of uric acid in your body. When too much uric acid builds up around a joint, uric crystal forms, causing a painful gout flare. All sorts of things -- from certain foods and drinks to stress and medicines -- can cause your uric acid levels to go up.

what is dhat syndrome
|
<P> Dhat Syndrome is an illness that affects the India culture. The syndrome has been classified as both a neurotic disorder and a culture specific disorder. The dhat syndrome has been found in several cultures and they often go by different names. However, the syndrome is most prevalent in India. The article “Dhat Syndrome: A reappraisal” describes the origin of the condition, how it affects the body and how it should be treated. <P> The naming of dhat syndrome came from the Indian culture, more specifically the Sanskrit word, “dhatu” which meant ‘elixir’ or ‘constituent of the body.’ Men suffering from dhat syndrome experience symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, anxiety, loss of appetite, and sexual dysfunction. <P> Abstract. Background Culture-bound syndrome is a term used to describe the uniqueness of some syndromes in specific cultures. Dhat (semen-loss anxiety) has been considered to be an exotic ‘neurosis of the Orient’. Aims To ascertain the presence of similar symptoms and syndromes in different cultures and historical settings. <P> Background. Dhat syndrome is a widely recognized clinical condition often seen on the Indian subcontinent that is characterized by a preoccupation with semen loss in urine and other symptoms such as fatigue or depressed mood. Dhat syndrome is currently classified as a culture-bound syndrome in DSM-IV-R, although the diagnostic criteria may change in the future. Indeed, a debate is underway about the suitability of considering culture-bound syndromes as specific illnesses. <P> Overview. Dhat syndrome is a condition found in the cultures of the Indian subcontinent in which male patients report that they suffer from premature ejaculation or impotence, and believe that they are passing semen in their urine. In traditional Hindu spirituality, semen is described as a 'vital fluid'. Some doctors believe dhat syndrome to be either a culture-bound presentation of clinical depression as a somatized set of symptoms or a result of Western doctors' misinterpretation of patients' descriptions of their condition. It is very common in Pakistani culture as well <P> Dhat syndrome: a culture-bound sex neurosis of the orient. Malhotra HK, Wig NN. The Indian Dhat syndrome is a culture-bound symptom complex. The clinical picture includes severe anxiety and hypochondriasis. The patient is preoccupied with the excessive loss of semen by nocturnal emissions. There is a fear that semen is being lost, and mixed in urine. <P> Dhat is a folk diagnostic term used in India to refer to anxiety and hypochondriacal concerns associated with the discharge of semen, with discoloration of the urine, and feelings of weakness and exhaustion. This culture-bound syndrome is similar to jiryan (South-East Asia), prameha (Sri Lanka), and shen-k'uei (China). (March 2012). Dhat syndrome (Sanskrit: धातु दोष, IAST: Dhātu doṣa) is a condition found in the cultures of the Indian subcontinent in which male patients report that they suffer from premature ejaculation or impotence, and believe that they are passing semen in their urine. The condition has no organic etiology <P> Dhat syndrome is a condition found in the cultures of the Indian subcontinent in which male patients report that they suffer from premature ejaculation or impotence, and believe that they are passing semen in their urine.

what is chloride
|
<P> Hyperchloremia is an electrolyte imbalance and is indicated by a high level of chloride in the blood. The normal adult value for chloride is 97-107 mEq/L. Chloride is an important electrolyte and works to ensure that your body's metabolism is working correctly. Your kidneys control the levels of chloride in your blood. <P> A chloride test measures the level of chloride in your blood or urine. Chloride is one of the most important electrolytes in the blood. It helps keep the amount of fluid inside and outside of your cells in balance. It also helps maintain proper blood volume, blood pressure, and pH of your body fluids. Chloride is absorbed by your intestines when you digest food. Extra chloride leaves your body in your urine. Sometimes a test for chloride can be done on a sample of all your urine collected over a 24-hour period (called a 24-hour urine sample) to find out how much chloride is leaving <P> Chloride: The major anion (negatively charged substance) in the blood and extracellular fluid (the body fluid that lies outside cells). Blood and other body fluids have almost the same concentration of chloride ion as sea water. The balance of chloride ion (Cl -) is closely regulated by the body. <P> Chloride is an electrolyte that helps maintain proper fluid and acid/base balance in your body. The blood test is often performed as a part of a comprehensive metabolic panel. A metabolic panel also measures your levels of other electrolytes, including carbon dioxide, potassium, and sodium. This test is used to detect abnormal blood chloride levels in order to diagnose a variety of health conditions, including alkalosis (when your blood is either too alkaline or basic) and acidosis (when it is too acidic). <P> Chloride ion is much larger than a chlorine atom, 167 and 99 pm, respectively. The ion is colorless and diamagnetic. In aqueous solution, it is highly soluble in most cases, however some chloride salts, such as silver chloride, lead(II) chloride, and mercury(I) chloride are slightly soluble in water. Some chloride-containing minerals include the chlorides of sodium (halite or NaCl), potassium (sylvite or KCl), and magnesium (bischofite), hydrated MgCl 2. Called serum chloride, the concentration of chloride in the blood is regulated by the kidneys. <P> Chloride is an extracellular fluid anion that plays an important role in maintaining normal acid-base balance and along with sodium maintains water balance and serum osmolality. It mainly exists as sodium chloride or hydrochloric acid. Description. Chloride is the predominant anion that exists in the extracellular space. It maintains cellular integrity via its effects on osmotic pressure and water balance, in addition to maintaining acid-base balance. <P> Blood chloride testing is often ordered, along with other electrolytes, as part of a regular physical to screen for a variety of conditions. These tests may also be ordered to help diagnose the cause of signs and symptoms such as prolonged vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, and respiratory distress. If both chloride and sodium levels are high in a person on a restricted salt diet, the person is not complying with the diet. A decreased level of urine chloride can be seen with Cushing syndrome, Conn syndrome, congestive heart failure, malabsorption syndrome, and diarrhea. ^ Back to top. <P> Chloride salts such as sodium chloride are often very soluble in water. It is an essential electrolyte located in all body fluids responsible for maintaining acid/base balance, transmitting nerve impulses and regulating fluid in and out of cells. Some chloride-containing minerals include the chlorides of sodium (halite or NaCl), potassium (sylvite or KCl), and magnesium (bischofite), hydrated MgCl 2. Called serum chloride, the concentration of chloride in the blood is regulated by the kidneys. <P> Guide. A chloride test measures the level of chloride in your blood or urine. Chloride is one of the most important electrolytes in the blood. It helps keep the amount of fluid inside and outside of your cells in balance. It also helps maintain proper blood volume, blood pressure, and pH of your body fluids. Tests for sodium, potassium, and bicarbonate are usually done at the same time as a blood test for chloride. Most of the chloride in your body comes from the salt (sodium chloride) you eat. Chloride is absorbed by your intestines when you digest food. Extra chloride leaves your body in your urine.

what are the signs and symptoms of hemiplegia
|
<P> | Brain and Nerves. If hemiplegia for the left or right side of the body, different body parts can be touched together or not: the arm and / or leg and / or sometimes the face. Hemiplegia is caused by damage to central nervous system (brain and spinal cord): the execution orders of movements are not transmitted to the muscles. In addition to motor disturbances, hemiplegia is characterized by the appearance of other symptoms. 1 Pain. 2 Aphasia. 3 Disorders of the sphincters. 4 Sexual dysfunction: erection, ejaculation is compromised in many men with hemiplegia. <P> Hemiplegia Definition. If hemiplegia for the left or right side of the body, different body parts can be touched together or not: the arm and / or leg and / or sometimes the face. Hemiplegia is caused by damage to central nervous system (brain and spinal cord): the execution orders of movements are not transmitted to the muscles. In addition to motor disturbances, hemiplegia is characterized by the appearance of other symptoms. 1 Pain. 2 Aphasia. 3 Disorders of the sphincters. 4 Sexual dysfunction: erection, ejaculation is compromised in many men with hemiplegia. <P> Hemiplegia. Hemiplegia is paralysis of one side of the body vertically; meaning the arm and leg on one side of the body are paralyzed. Hemiplegia cerebral palsy occurs as a result of brain damage to the movement centers of the brain. Whichever side of the brain is affected, the opposite side of the body is paralyzed. The primary cause of the hemiplegia is stroke in the fetus or newborn. The stroke often results from an occluded or blocked artery which interrupts the flow of blood to the brain. This type of occlusion also is the most common cause of stroke in the elderly. <P> Hemiplegia Symptoms. Here are a few symptoms of hemiplegia you should watch out for if you suspect that your child has the disorder: 1 Inability to sit up, stand or crawl even when a child is scheduled to reach these developmental milestones. 2 Poor motor skills; the child may not be able to hold an object or manipulate it. In children with hemiplegia, the paralysis in the body occurs on the side opposite the affected part of the brain. For example, if the left side of the child’s brain is injured, then the paralysis will be on the right side of the child’s body. <P> The list of signs and symptoms mentioned in various sources for Alternating Hemiplegia includes the 11 symptoms listed below: 1 Temporary episodes of one-sided paralysis. 2 Hemiplegia. 3 Eye muscle paralysis. 4 Limb paralysis. 5 Facial muscle paralysis. 6 Mental impairment. 7 Balance problems. 8 Gait problems.

Hemiplegia is its most severe form, complete paralysis of half of the body. Hemiparesis and hemiplegia can be caused by different medical conditions, including congenital causes, trauma, tumors, or stroke. <P> Signs and Symptoms of Hemiplegia. According to Clinical Perinatology, congenital hemiplegia is the most common form of cerebral palsy in children who are born at term. The primary cause of the hemiplegia is stroke in the fetus or newborn. The stroke often results from an occluded or blocked artery which interrupts the flow of blood to the brain. This type of occlusion also is the most common cause of stroke in the elderly.

why is added sugar in foods bad for you
|
<P> Added sugar is the sugar that is added to processed foods and drinks while they are being made. Food manufacturers may add both natural sugars (for example, fructose) and processed sugars (for example, high-fructose corn syrup) to processed foods and drinks. The sugar you add to your food at home is also added sugar. Also, if you fill up on foods or drinks that contain added sugar, you are less likely to eat and drink healthy options. For example, studies have shown that the more sugary drinks people drink, the less milk they drink. <P> A few facts about sugar. All sugar, whether natural or processed, is a type of simple carbohydrate your body uses for energy. Fruits, vegetables and dairy foods naturally contain sugar. Added sugar refers to sugars and syrups added to foods during processing. So adding sugar to processed foods makes them more appetizing. But sugar is also added to foods because it: 1 Boosts flavor. 2 Gives baked goods flavor, texture and color. 3 Helps preserve foods, such as jams and jellies. 4 Fuels fermentation, which enables bread to rise. <P> Sugar has been getting a bad rap over the last few years — and in the case of added sugar, it's for good reason. While naturally occurring sugars, like those from fruit, are welcome in a healthy, balanced diet, added refined sugars, like those in a powdery doughnut or soft drink, are a different story. <P> Without insulin, eating sugar will increase blood sugar. But, essentially, diabetes is not just about blood sugar. It's about, blood sugar and triglycerides, and lipid levels. Sugar is very calorie-dense. So you can easily consume a lot of sugar in soft drinks, and in all kinds of food that contain added sugar. It's not that the sugar calories are more fattening than any other calories. It's just calories are calories, and sugar packs a lot. The bottom line is that sugar does one of two things. It either displaces more nutritious foods in your diet, which means you're screening out nutritious-dense foods, or it adds calories to your diet. So if you're adding calories on top of an already nutritious diet that puts you at risk for weight gain. <P> The sugar you’ll get from a candy bar or a slice of cake is the same sugar naturally found in whole foods. Sugar from any source supplies the glucose your body loves to use for energy, but sugar added to sweets and beverages has a different impact on your health than the same sugar supplied by a piece of fruit. Bad sugars increase your risk of gaining weight and of developing Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. One teaspoon of sugar has 16 calories, a teaspoon of honey has 21 calories and you'll get 136 calories, including 33 grams or 8 teaspoons of sugar, from a 12-ounce can of generic cola. <P> That said, dessert and other foods that contain added sugar should be eaten only occasionally and should not be a significant part of your diet. When used on occasion, a small amount of added sugars will contribute only minimal calories to the overall calorie intake in a day, and thus you should not worry about it. <P> When we look at the types of foods that are high in added sugar, they often are not high in nutrition. So eating a lot of sugar is a general indication that maybe you aren't eating as healthy of a diet as you could. The bottom line is that sugar does one of two things. It either displaces more nutritious foods in your diet, which means you're screening out nutritious-dense foods, or it adds calories to your diet. So if you're adding calories on top of an already nutritious diet that puts you at risk for weight gain. <P> In order to reduce the amount of added sugar in your diet, opt for water rather than the sugary, non-diet sodas or sports drinks. When you drink fruit juice, make sure it's of the 100% fruit juice variety-or even better yet, eat the fruit rather than the juice. Naturally occurring sugars are found in foods such as fruit (fructose) and milk (lactose). These products provide nutrient-dense additions to your diet, offering wholesome amounts of fiber, vitamins, minerals and protein. <P> Natural sugar in whole food is good sugar. When any type of sugar is added to foods during processing, cooking or at the table, you consume calories without any nutrients or fiber. This type of sugar, called added sugar, is bad sugar. Bad sugars increase your risk of gaining weight and of developing Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. One teaspoon of sugar has 16 calories, a teaspoon of honey has 21 calories and you'll get 136 calories, including 33 grams or 8 teaspoons of sugar, from a 12-ounce can of generic cola. <P> In addition, added sugar is often found in foods that also contain solid fats, such as butter, margarine or shortening in baked goods. Eating too many foods with added sugar and solid fats sets the stage for potential health problems, such as: 1 Poor nutrition. So adding sugar to processed foods makes them more appetizing. But sugar is also added to foods because it: 1 Boosts flavor. 2 Gives baked goods flavor, texture and color. 3 Helps preserve foods, such as jams and jellies. 4 Fuels fermentation, which enables bread to rise.

where did racism occur?

<P> On the other hand you have everyday racism. This is racism that occurs in informal settings, things like when you go to the shops and the store assistant serves you last or doesn't serve you at all! Once again on the basis of the color of your skin or perceived ethnicity. <P> Institutional racism as it's formally called is racism that occurs in our institutions such as places of education and schools, the health care system, in the provision of public services, employment and housing. This is racism that occurs in informal settings, things like when you go to the shops and the store assistant serves you last or doesn't serve you at all! Once again on the basis of the color of your skin or perceived ethnicity. <P> Racism occurs wherever different races mix. Racism occurs BECAUSE different races mix. It never has been otherwise. It never will be otherwise. Keep the races together, and you will have racism. Separate the races, and racism will disappear. This isn't difficult to understand. It's easy <P> Racism has played a role in genocides such as the Holocaust, the Armenian genocide, and colonial projects like the European colonization of the Americas, Africa, and Asia. Indigenous peoples have been –and are– often subject to racist attitudes. Racism and racial discrimination are often used to describe discrimination on an ethnic or cultural basis, independent of whether these differences are described as racial. <P> You miss some blatantly racist countries such as Italy and Spain, but its more cultural, surely Australia and Japan deserve top but you forgot a big contender South Africa. I can’t seem to fathom a country free of racism in today’s world, but surely some do manage it well where it strikes. I think America and the UK are actually among the most racially tolerant countries on Earth. Compare USA & UK to countries like Russia or India and Myanmar and they are a near paradise of tolerance by comparison. In India every now and then we get ethnic massacres. <P> Racism, thus defined, is a modern conception, for prior to the XVIth century there was virtually nothing in the life and thought of the West that can be described as racist. To prevent misunderstanding a clear distinction must be made between racism and ethnocentrism ... Racism and racial discrimination are often used to describe discrimination on an ethnic or cultural basis, independent of whether these differences are described as racial. <P> This information is based on research that looked into the different experiences of racism in Victoria within culturally and linguistically diverse communities (CALD) – if you’d like to know more about this report, click here. As you can see, racism occurs in a range of public and private spaces. However, it’s up to you to help stop racism where and when it occurs.

Black or Chinese or In … dian, etc still have the same body and personnality, but all that is different is the skin colour. Another view is that racism, bad as it is, has happened for historical reasons. One example is when white nations captured and enslaved black people in Africa. The slaves were then moved to another country where they were viewed as being at the lowest rung in the social ladder.

how many teeth do kittens have
|
<P> Answer: Puppies and kittens have sharp, needle-like teeth, as some of you know first hand. The teeth erupt at 3-4 weeks of age. By age 6 weeks or so, these emerging teeth often irritate the nursing mother, and the weaning process begins. The baby teeth are a bit translucent, and not very big. <P> Confidence votes 297. Feline kittens have 26 deciduous teeth, and adult cats have 30 permanent teeth - 12 incisors, 10 premolars, 4 canines, and 4 molars. Most of the teeth in a cat are very small and you can only see them if you look very close. Kittens have baby teeth, which usually appear at 2 to 3 weeks of age and are replaced by permanent teeth around the age of 7 months <P> Older Cats. You may have noticed that all of your cat’s permanent teeth should come in between the time he is 4–7 months old. This makes estimating a cat’s age a little more difficult than estimating a dog’s age. Once all your cat’s adult teeth are in, it can be even more difficult to tell how old he is. <P> #6 Brush Kitty's Teeth. Believe it or not, you can brush your cat’s teeth. Toothpaste specially designed for cats is readily available in flavors they’ll enjoy. Do NOT try to brush your cat's teeth with people toothpaste; if fluoride toothpaste is ingested it can make your cat severely ill. #4 Good Eats. Diet is another important factor in maintaining your cat’s teeth for good health. Besides the variety of feeding your cat a combination of wet and dry foods, you can also include deboned raw meat to stimulate him to chew, which helps to keep the bones strong. Vary the meats, too. <P> Deciduous Teeth. The amount of teeth a cat has depends on his specific age. Young kittens possess baby teeth until their adult sets appear at roughly 6 months old. During the tender kitten months, a cat will have 26 teeth -- four less than the adult amount. <P> http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... Watch More: http://www.youtube.com/ehow. Kittens don't have any teeth to start, but their baby teeth will come in as they age. Find out how many teeth kittens have with help from a small animal and exotic veterinarian in this free video clip. <P> Those sharp new teeth mean your kitten has probably reached puberty. A kitten will start to cut his adult teeth between 3 and 6 months of age. By about 8 months of age, the cat will have all his permanent teeth. <P> Answers. Best Answer: Cats have 30 teeth, each especially designed for biting, slicing, and stabbing. The teeth are arranged so a cat can sever a rodents spine with the presicion of a surgeon. The large canine teeth let him grab his prey with enough force to kill it. <P> Telling a Cat’s Age from their Teeth. In the wild the amount of wear on the cusps of the teeth can be a reliable guage of age. As domestic cats rarely use their teeth for grinding there is little wear but the general condition of the teeth and gums provide indications of age. <P> Cats start out with 26 deciduous teeth. By six months of age, these baby teeth fall out and are replaced by permanent teeth, 30 in the cat. Cats have 30 teeth (12 incisors, 10 premolars, 4 canines, and 4 molars), while dogs have 42. Kittens have baby teeth, which are replaced by permanent teeth around the age of 7 months. Feline kittens have 26 deciduous teeth, and adult cats have 30 permanent teeth. Most of the teeth in a cat are very small and you can only see them if you look very close.

what type of information does a spectroscope give
|
<P> Absorption spectroscopy is a technique in which the power of a beam of light measured before and after interaction with a sample is compared. Specific absorption techniques tend to be referred to by the wavelength of radiation measured such as ultraviolet, infrared or microwave absorption spectroscopy. 1 The intensity of this fluorescing light is used for quantifying the amount of analyte element in the sample. 2 A graphite furnace can also be used for atomic fluorescence spectroscopy. 3 This method is not as commonly used as atomic absorption or plasma emiss <P> A spectroscope is similar to a prism in that it can break up light into its component. At one end of the spectroscope is a square film of material that acts like a prism. The film is called a diffraction grating. It is made by putting thousands of grooves on a plastic film. This bends the light coming through it and, in essence, causes the light to spread out into its different wavelengths of light (colors). This is the end of the spectroscope you look through. <P> A spectrometer is used in spectroscopy for producing spectral lines and measuring their wavelengths and intensities. Spectrometer is a term that is applied to instruments that operate over a very wide range of wavelengths, from gamma rays and X-rays into the far infrared. If the instrument is designed to measure the spectrum in absolute units rather than relative units, then it is typically called a spectrophotometer. Spectrometers are used in many fields. For example, they are used in astronomy to analyze the radiation from astronomical objects and deduce chemical composition. The spectrometer uses a prism or a grating to spread the light from a distant object into a spectrum. <P> An early example of a spectroscope. Prisms split light by refraction; the resulting spectrum is measured by the spectroscope. In astronomy, a spectroscope may be used in conjunction with a telescope. A spectrophotometer measures how much light is reflected off of -- or absorbed by -- an object. A spectroscope is a scientific instrument that splits light into its different wavelengths, which humans see as different colors. Violet has the shortest wavelength that people can see and red the longest. This instrument can also identify wavelengths that humans cannot see, such as infrared and ultraviolet radiation <P> In physics, a spectrometer is an apparatus to measure a spectrum. Generally, a spectrum is a graph that shows intensity as a function of wavelength, of frequency, of energy, of momentum, or of mass. The energy spectrum of particles of known mass can also be measured by determining the time of flight between two detectors (and hence, the velocity) in a time-of-flight spectrometer. <P> Spectroscopy pertains to the dispersion of an object's light into its component colors (i.e. energies). By performing this dissection and analysis of an object's light, astronomers can infer the physical properties of that object (such as temperature, mass, luminosity and composition). <P> In this type of spectroscopy, each optical wavelength that is recorded is encoded with an audio frequency containing the original wavelength information. A wavelength analyzer can then reconstruct the original spectrum. Gamma radiation is the energy source in this type of spectroscopy, which includes activation analysis and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Infrared Spectroscopy. The infrared absorption spectrum of a substance is sometimes called its molecular fingerprint. <P> A mass spectrometer is an analytical instrument that is used to identify the amount and type of chemicals present in a sample by measuring the mass-to-charge ratio and abundance of gas-phase ions. The energy spectrum of particles of known mass can also be measured by determining the time of flight between two detectors (and hence, the velocity) in a time-of-flight spectrometer. <P> Grating spectrometer schematic. An optical spectrometer (spectrophotometer, spectrograph or spectroscope) is an instrument used to measure properties of light over a specific portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, typically used in spectroscopic analysis to identify materials. Spectrometers are used in many fields. For example, they are used in astronomy to analyze the radiation from astronomical objects and deduce chemical composition. The spectrometer uses a prism or a grating to spread the light from a distant object into a spectrum.

how will i feel after a hysteroscopy and d&c
|
<P> You should be able to go home on the same day you have your hysteroscopy. If you had an anaesthetic, you may have to stay in hospital until it has worn off. When you get home, rest as much as possible. Some women experience cramping afterwards that is similar to period pain. <P> Hysteroscopy is the visual examination of the canal of the cervix and interior of the uterus using a thin, lighted, flexible tube called a hysteroscope. The device is inserted through the vagina. Hysteroscopy may be used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. <P> You may experience cramping and vaginal bleeding for a day or two after the procedure. Report fever, severe abdominal pain, or heavy vaginal bleeding or discharge. You may experience flatulence (gas in the digestive tract) and pains resulting from the gas administered during the procedure for about 24 hours. <P> Now afterthe D & C, Hysteroscopy, hormones and ALL that I have cysts, dysfunctional uterine bleeding. I just finished a cycle that was 24 days long,(heavy bleeding) this Hysterectomy is something I am looking forward to. I have read alot about how much better I will feel afterwards. <P> A D&C can be used to take a sample of the lining of the uterus for analysis. However, hysteroscopy has advantages over a D&C because the doctor can take tissue samples of specific areas and view any fibroids, polyps, or structural abnormalities. <P> Recovery After a D&C. After a D&C, you will need someone to take you home. If you had general anesthesia, you may feel groggy for a while and have some brief nausea and vomiting. You can return to regular activities within one or two days. <P> You shouldn't use tampons for at least a month after having a hysteroscopy, as this will help reduce the risk of infection. If you have had a general anaesthetic, avoid drinking alcohol and driving a car for at least 24 hours. <P> You may have a small amount of vaginal bleeding for a day or so after your hysteroscopy, and/or some mild abdominal pain. Your doctor will discuss with you how long you must wait before resuming normal activity, exercise, sexual intercourse, and the use of tampons or douches. Be sure to follow instructions. <P> A hysteroscopy can cause injury to the uterus or cervix, an infection, or bleeding. In rare cases, the uterus, bladder, or bowel can be punctured during the test, requiring surgical repair. If general anesthesia is used, there is a small risk of problems from the anesthesia.

how much does a basement add to the cost of building a house
|
<P> 1 Adding a basement to an existing house can cost $30,000-$70,000 or more, depending on the size of the existing crawlspace or half-basement or if the house is on a slab foundation, and how much of the work is do-it-yourself and how much is done by contractors. 1 However, house-moving companies like Klier Structural Movers in Ohio assert that adding a basement to an existing house is a cost-effective addition. 2 A basement alone does not guarantee safety during a tornado. <P> The Hard Facts and Figures: Finishing a basement added a national average of about $45,000 to the resale value of the home in 2010. Building an addition or buying a larger home cost about $150 to $200 a square foot, while finishing a basement cost $40 to $75 per square foot. In general, unfinished basements add between $10,000 to $20,000 in value, not much-according to appraisers I talked to. <P> House without basement Cost of 129 m 2 house on two floors (separate garage) including foundations but without basement is: 129 m 2 × £1,050 = £ 136,740 3. Comparing the house type costs From the above it can be seen that the fully below‐ground basement cost would be (£125,120 – £136,740) = –£11,620, or 8.5% less. From the cost comparison in the previous section, the following is established: a) A house of 129 m 2 would cost £136,740. b) A 129 m 2 house with a fully below‐ground masonry basement would cost £143,470. However, this could also save 3 m on site width and potentially 21% of the land cost. <P> If a typical foundation would be approximately 4 feet high, and a typical basement is 8 feet high how much more would it cost? Excavating for a crawl space foundation: If the ground is flat, for instance, an excavator would dig about 2 to 2 1/2 feet of depth. As you can see, with some planning, your excavation cost difference should be minimal. Footings: Cost for footings should be the same for a crawlspace or basement based on an average load bearing of the soil at 2000 psf (pounds per square foot). Walls: 4 foot high for crawlspace and 8 foot high for a basement. <P> 1 In warmer climates where the foundation does not have to be as deep (typically 18-20 for a crawlspace or a few inches for a slab foundation), including a basement adds more to the total cost of the house because it requires a lot more additional excavation, far beyond what would be done without a basement. 1 However, house-moving companies like Klier Structural Movers in Ohio assert that adding a basement to an existing house is a cost-effective addition. 2 A basement alone does not guarantee safety during a tornado. <P> Although costs vary with the size and complexity of the project, remodeling an existing basement starts at about $20 per square foot, a fraction of what it costs to build an addition or enlarge second-floor space with. dormers. <P> 1 A finished basement typically includes all of that plus flooring, walls, ceilings, drywall, windows, and additional waterproofing and more in order to provide the desired living space. 2 Overall, a basement adds about 3-4 weeks to the new-house construction schedule. 1 However, house-moving companies like Klier Structural Movers in Ohio assert that adding a basement to an existing house is a cost-effective addition. 2 A basement alone does not guarantee safety during a tornado. <P> 1 A slab foundation for an average 1,600- to 1,800-square-foot family home might cost about $7,000-$16,000 or more, while a slab foundation for a 3,000- to 4,500-square-foot home might cost $13,000-$40,000 or more. 1 And an Illinois log cabin owner-builder estimates about $17,000 in costs for a 24'x36' basement foundation with 8' walls with the concrete poured professionally but the rest done as a serious DIY project.. <P> 1 Build Your Own House explains the pros and cons of a crawl space foundation. 2 A full basement foundation for an average home can cost $13,000-$30,000 or more, depending on the width and height of the walls, and whether utilities, windows or other features are included. 1 And an Illinois log cabin owner-builder estimates about $17,000 in costs for a 24'x36' basement foundation with 8' walls with the concrete poured professionally but the rest done as a serious DIY project..

how long should lunch break be
|
<P> I don't get a lunch break for my eight hours, I get two 15 minute breaks. They are only required to provide at least 15 minutes after six hours. Look on the bright side-at least you get to go home that much earlier for the time they're gypping you. p.s. I live in Utah. I only get a half hour. I don't think that is enough time for an 8 hour working day, it's ok for a 7 hour working day. Where I work they get upset if you are like running 5 minutes late. Update: I also get 1 15 minute break for both shifts. <P> Best Answer: labor law says, they are only required to give you a 1/2 hour lunch for every 8 hours worked, they also have to give you 2 fifteen minute breaks for every 8 hours, anything under seven scheduled hours, they are not required to give you a lunch break, but they must give you one 15 minute break.

Update: I also get 1 15 minute break for both shifts. <P> The office lunch break is often a source of contention for many. While some firms have a strict one-hour lunch policy, for others it’s half an hour, and for the unlucky few, it may mean eating and working at the same time. But, even when workers do have the right to a lunch break, how long is optimum to benefit both organization and the individual worker? However, many organizations firmly believe that an hour for lunch is good for both the employee and the business. By taking a lengthy break to eat lunch, even leave the office to go for a walk, go to the gym or do some shopping, it will leave the worker re-energized and raring to go again. <P> The traditional hour-long lunch break is the exception rather than the norm these days, with just 1 in 5 workers having an hour for lunch. Many workers skip lunch, either because they have mounting work pressures, or even because they think it might impress the boss. However, many organizations firmly believe that an hour for lunch is good for both the employee and the business. By taking a lengthy break to eat lunch, even leave the office to go for a walk, go to the gym or do some shopping, it will leave the worker re-energized and raring to go again. <P> The One-Hour Lunch Break.

Employers only have to give you a break for lunch if you work more than 6 hours. State laws on break time vary from as little as 20 minutes to 30 minutes. Hour-long lunch breaks are becoming rather rare. And 30 minutes remains very common, probably the most common, nationwide -- especially if you have any cafeteria, kitchen, or other space where you can eat on the premises. ibu guru · 7 years ago.

I thought that in WV, for every 8 hours of work you had to be given 2 15 minute paid breaks and a half hour lunch. It was also to my understanding that if you took a lunch break that was under 20 minutes, you were supossed to get paid for it. We were told that according to law…we had to give a 15 minute break, if the associate was scheduled for four hours or more, commencing prior to the end of four hours, and a lunch break (off the clock), if the associate was scheduled for more than 5 hours, with the lunch break required to start prior to the hour five.

<P> Yogurt is made by inoculating certain bacteria (starter culture), usually Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus, into milk. Starter culture may be provided by a pre-packaged powder or an amount of existing yogurt with live bacteria. To offset its natural sourness, yogurt is also sold sweetened, flavored or in containers with fruit or fruit jam on the bottom. The two styles of yogurt commonly found in the grocery store are set type yogurt and Swiss style yogurt. <P> The process of pasteurization destroys the active bacterial cultures that make yogurt so healthy and beneficial. The bacteria in yogurt can help one's digestive system, as well as help women prevent yeast infections. A man making yogurt. Acidophilus, often called a good bacteria or probiotic, is found in yogurt. Since the early 2000s, many yogurt manufacturers in the US and Europe have mounted advertising campaigns drawing public attention to the bacteria in yogurt. The bacteria referred to in such campaigns are often supplemental to the two types of bacteria which have always been <P> Yogurt is made from the fermentation of the lactose in milk by the rod-shaped bacteria Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus to produce lactic acid, which acts on milk protein to give yoghurt its texture and its characteristic acidic taste. <P> The bacteria used to make yogurt are known as yogurt cultures. Fermentation of lactose by these bacteria produces lactic acid, which acts on milk protein to give yogurt its texture and characteristic tang. Worldwide, cow 's milk, the protein of which is mainly casein, is most commonly used to make yogurt. To offset its natural sourness, yogurt is also sold sweetened, flavored or in containers with fruit or fruit jam on the bottom.

does the citronella plant repel mosquitoes
|
<P> Cultivated plants that repel mosquitoes. Citronella Grass (Cymbopogon nardus) is the most popular cultivated plant used for repelling mosquitoes. Its oil, citronella oil, is the primary ingredient in most natural insect repellents sold in stores. Products applied to the skin are most effective. <P> 1 Plant citronella directly into the ground behind your other plants if you live in warm climates where frost does not occur. 2 Citronella can grow to a height of up to between 5 and 6 feet (1.52 and 1.82 meters) and forms in large, grassy clumps. <P> A: Despite the claims, citronella plants do not repel mosquitoes. Citronella grass, Cymbopogon nardus, and citrosa (scented geranium) contain citronella oil, which does repel mosquitoes. However, the plants don’t release enough oil into the air to repel insects. <P> The picture above shows the citronella plant; also called Pelargonium citrosum. This geranium is unrelated to the true citronella. Not only that but the scientific name of the plant is not even recognized as a valid name. It is a geranium (ie Pelargonium) and it sort of smells lik <P> This will help deter mosquitoes in areas of your home or yard that may not contain mosquito-repellent plants, in addition to keeping your skin protected away from home. 1 Apply crushed catnip, citronella, vanilla leaf, tea tree, lemon balm, clove, lavender, eucalyptus, sagebrush, or pineapple weed directly to your skin. <P> Photos.com/Photos.com/Getty Images. A citronella geranium, also called mosquito geranium, is a species of plant that produces the oil used in citronella products. The plant fragrance releases when you crush or rub the leaves. A citronella geranium contains less than 1 percent citronella oil. The plant may not repel enough mosquitoes to be worth planting for this sole purpose. The citronella geranium is sensitive to frost and requires protection in cold weather. <P> There are lots claims that fragrant plants such as catnip, citronella grass, beebalm, marigolds, lemon balm, lavender, geraniums, thyme, wormwood, rosemary and various mints, repel mosquitoes in the garden.

what is the pharynx made of
|
<P> The pharynx is part of the throat that leads from the cavities of the mouth and nose to the larynx and the esophagus. It is found behind the mouth and nasal cavity and is superior to the larynx, esophagus, and trachea. It is divided into three parts which are: the nasopharynx, oropharynx, and the laryngopharynx. It extends from the epiglottis to the cricoid cartilage. Summary. 1.The pharynx and the larynx are both part of the throat. 2.The pharynx is found from behind the mouth and continues with the esophagus whilst the larynx is found at the level of C3-C6. 3.The pharynx is part of both the digestive and respiratory systems whilst the larynx is not <P> It makes up the part of the throat situated immediately posterior to the nasal cavity, posterior to the mouth and superior to the esophagus and larynx. The human pharynx is conventionally divided into three sections: the nasopharynx, the oropharynx and the laryngopharynx. It is also important in vocalization. There are two sets of pharyngeal muscles that act upon the pharynx. These are arranged as an inner layer of longitudinal muscles and an outer circular layer. <P> The term Throat generally refers to the Pharynx. It is located behind the Mouth and Nasal cavity and above the Esophagus. It is part of both the Respiratory and Digestive Systems, acting as a passage for both air and food during normal daily behavior. The Pharynx is made up of three parts: <P> The larynx is the organ that connects the lower part of the pharynx with the trachea. It serves (1) as a valve to guard the air passages, especially during swallowing, (2) for the maintenance of a patent airway, and (3) for vocalization. 53-2 The nasopharynx is the superiormost part of the pharynx, but (at least in its anterior aspect) it may also be regarded as the posterior portion of the nasal cavity (F. W. Jones, J. Anat., 74:147,1940; K. Leela, R. Kanagasuntheram, and F. Y. Khoo, J. Anat., 117:333, 1974). <P> pharynx. the throat; the musculomembranous crossroads of the digestive and respiratory systems, found behind the nasal cavities and mouth, and rostral to the larynx and esophagus. Pharynx. The pharynx is the part of the throat that lies between the mouth and the larynx or voice box. Mentioned in: Sore Throat, Swallowing Disorders, Velopharyngeal Insufficiency. , pl. pharynges (far'ingks, fă-rin'jēz) [TA] <P> The PHARYNX is a fibromuscular tube which extends from the base of the skull to the lower border of the cricoid cartilage (at which point it becomes the esophagus). Portions of the pharynx lie posterior to the nasal cavity (nasal pharynx), oral cavity (oral pharynx) and larynx (laryngeal pharynx). The muscular walls of the pharynx are comprised of an outer layer made up of 3 circularly disposed muscles, the CONSTRICTORS. The LARYNX is an apparatus made up of cartilage, ligaments, muscles, and mucous membrane, which guards the entrance to the lower respiratory passages (trachea, bronchi, and lungs) and houses the vocal cords. Figure 4 shows the major cartilaginous and ligamentous structures which make up the larynx. <P> The word throat is used for the parts of the neck anterior to the vertebral column, especially the pharynx and the larynx. The pharynx is the part of the digestive system situated posterior to the nasal and oral cavities and posterior to the larynx. It is therefore divisible into nasal, oral, and laryngeal parts: the (1) nasopharynx, (2) oropharynx, and (3) laryngopharynx. 53-2 The nasopharynx is the superiormost part of the pharynx, but (at least in its anterior aspect) it may also be regarded as the posterior portion of the nasal cavity (F. W. Jones, J. Anat., 74:147,1940; K. Leela, R. Kanagasuntheram, and F. Y. Khoo, J. Anat., 117:333, 1974). <P> The pharynx (plural: pharynges) is an organ found in vertebrates and invertebrates, though the structure is not universally the same across the species. In humans the pharynx is part of the digestive system and also of the conducting zone of the respiratory system. The conducting zone also includes the nose, larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles, and their function is to filter, warm, and moisten air and conduct it into the lungs. The human pharynx is conventionally divided into three sections: the nasopharynx, the oropharynx and the laryngopharynx. It is also important in vocalization. There are two sets of pharyngeal muscles that act upon the pharynx. These are arranged as an inner layer of longitudinal muscles and an outer circular layer.

how long is chicken pox in adults contagious
|
<P> Chickenpox, also known as varicella, is a highly contagious disease caused by the initial infection with varicella zoster virus (VZV). The disease results in a characteristic skin rash that forms small, itchy blisters, which eventually scab over. The varicella vaccine has resulted in a decrease in the number of cases and complications from the disease. It protects about 70 to 90 percent of people from disease with a greater benefit for severe disease. Routine immunization of children is recommended in many countries. <P> 1 FACT: Chickenpox is contagious from one to two days before the rash appears until all the blisters have formed scabs or lesions fade away (if no blisters develop). 2 FACT: It usually takes 10 to 21 days for chickenpox symptoms to appear after exposure to an infected person. <P> These symptoms of chickenpox appear 10 to 21 days after exposure to a contagious person. Adults may have a more widespread rash and longer fever, and they are more likely to experience complications, such as varicella pneumonia. The varicella vaccine has resulted in a decrease in the number of cases and complications from the disease. It protects about 70 to 90 percent of people from disease with a greater benefit for severe disease. Routine immunization of children is recommended in many countries. <P> Chickenpox in adults. Chickenpox may be a childhood illness, but adults can get it too. Chickenpox tends to be more severe in adults than children, and adults have a higher risk of developing complications. Adults with chickenpox should stay off work until all the spots have crusted over. They should seek medical advice if they develop any abnormal symptoms, such as infected blisters. Adults with chickenpox may benefit from taking antiviral medicine if treatment is started early in the course of the illness <P> Characteristic pancorporeal varicella lesions in unvaccinated person. The incubation period for varicella is 14 to 16 days after exposure to a varicella or a herpes zoster rash, with a range of 10 to 21 days. A mild prodrome of fever and malaise may occur 1 to 2 days before rash onset, particularly in adults. In children, the rash is often the first sign of disease. A person with varicella is contagious from 1-2 days before rash onset until the lesions have crusted. It takes from 10-21 days after exposure to the virus for someone to develop varicella. <P> Most people have chickenpox as a child. Most children get chickenpox before the age of 10. About 9 in 10 people have had it by the age of 15. It is uncommon for adults to have chickenpox. Chickenpox causes spots (a rash) and can make you feel unwell. Symptoms tend to be worse in adults than in children. Treatments can ease the symptoms until the illness goes. An antiviral drug may limit the severity of the illness if the drug is started within 24 hours of the rash first starting. <P> Chickenpox is most common in children under the age of 10. In fact, chickenpox is so common in childhood that over 90% of adults are immune to the condition because they've had it before. Children usually catch chickenpox in winter and spring, particularly between March and May. Chickenpox tends to be more severe in adults than children, and adults have a higher risk of developing complications. Adults with chickenpox should stay off work until all the spots have crusted over. They should seek medical advice if they develop any abnormal symptoms, such as infected blisters. <P> Report Abuse. Chicken pox is contagious from the incubation period (14-21 days from when your toddler first came into contact) until the last blister has scabbed over and no new blisters are appearing. It is caught from contact from the liquid from the blisters or from sneezing. I don't believe it survives outside the body.

what unique problems do multicellular organisms face
|
<P> The first evidence of multicellularity is from cyanobacteria-like organisms that lived 3-3.5 billion years ago. In order to reproduce, true multicellular organisms must solve the problem of regenerating a whole organism from germ cells (i.e. sperm and egg cells), an issue that is studied in developmental biology. Loss of multicellularity occurred in some groups. Fungi are predominantly multicellular, though early diverging lineages are largely unicellular (e.g., Microsporidia) and there have been numerous reversions to unicellularity across fungi (e.g., Saccharomycotina, Cryptococcus, and other yeasts). <P> All known types of organisms are capable of some degree of response to stimuli, reproduction, growth and development and homeostasis. An organism consists of one or more cells; when it has one cell is a unicellular organism; and when it has more than one it is known as a multicellular organism. Most unicellular organisms are of microscopic size and are thus classified as microorganisms. Humans are multicellular organisms composed of many trillions of cells grouped into specialized tissues and organs. An organism may be either a prokaryote or a eukaryote. <P> A multicellular organism is an organism with more than one cell, unlike an unicellular organism, that has only one cell. Multicellular organisms include plants, animals and h … uman beings. Unicellular organisms include protozoans and specific algae like brown algae. multi cellular means an organism made up of many cells. there is another organism called uni cellular similar to multi cellular. uni cellular means organism made up of one cel … l however multi means many so it means an organisms made up of many cells. hope that helps you XD. 17 people found this useful. <P> 1 Unicellular organisms only have one cell. 2 Multicellular organisms have many cells.] in the gills, which actively transport salts [salts: class of chemical compounds, mostly metallic oxides. 3 Examples are sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and magnesium sulphate] from the surrounding water into the blood. Osmoregulation in fish. Because of their environment, osmoregulation in fish presents specific problems. Fish have adaptations that enable them to deal with these problems. <P> Multicellular organisms arise in various different ways, for example by cell division or by aggregation of many single cells. Loss of multicellularity occurred in some groups. Fungi are predominantly multicellular, though early diverging lineages are largely unicellular (e.g., Microsporidia) and there have been numerous reversions to unicellularity across fungi (e.g., Saccharomycotina, Cryptococcus, and other yeasts). <P> In unicellular organisms, a single cell performs all the basic functions such as respiration, movement, excretion, digestion, etc. But in multicellular organisms, cells are gr … ouped to form tissues. These tissues are specialised to carry out a particular function at a definite place in the body. For example, the muscle cells form muscular tissues which helps in movement, nerve cells form the nervous tissue which helps in transmission of messages. multi cellular means an organism made up of many cells. there is another organism called uni cellular similar to multi cellular. uni cellular means organism made up of one cel … l however multi means many so it means an organisms made up of many cells. hope that helps you XD. 17 people found this useful. <P> Plants and animals have adopted very different strategies to solve these problems. And different groups of animals have come up with some solutions that are truly radical. The possible solutions, however, are not infinite. Any engineer can tell you that the number of solutions to an engineering problem is finite. The basic laws of physics and chemistry are not repealed when we put up a building. Sessile (attached) organisms are usually radially symmetric. Radial symmetry means the animal can be folded along any plan into mirror image halves. Like a wagon wheel. Bilateral symmetry means that there is only one plane that can divide the organism into mirrored halves, like a wagon. <P> The zygote's genome is a combination of the DNA in each gamete, and contains all of the genetic information necessary to form a new individual. In multicellular organisms, the zygote is the earliest developmental stage. In single-celled organisms, the zygote can divide asexually by mitosis to produce identical offspring. Oscar Hertwig and Richard Hertwig made some of the first discoveries on animal zygote formation. <P> Colonial, or organisms are the result of many identical individuals joining together to form a colony, but pluricellular colonies have evolved independently in Volvox and some flagellated green algae that form coenobia.

what is a power surge protector
|
<P> It is a common misunderstanding that surge protectors will protect systems from lightning, the most familiar source of power surges. Even the most effective surge protectors can not protect equipment from the sudden increase in electrical pressure of millions of volts that lightning can supply. How it Works. A surge protector works by channeling the extra voltage into the outlet's grounding wire, preventing it from flowing through the electronic devices while at the same time allowing the normal voltage to continue along its path. <P> With all of the different components that make up a computer system, this is definitely a useful device. But the other function of a surge protector power strip -- protecting the electronics in your computer from surges in power -- is far more important. In this article, we'll look at surge protectors, also called surge suppressors, to find out what they do, when you need them, and how well they work. When you put together a computer system, one piece of standard equipment you'll probably buy is a surge protector. Most designs serve one immediately obvious function -- they let you plug multiple components into one power outlet. <P> Surge protectors do a very good job of preventing damage from a power spike. A surge protector costs a little more than a power strip. A 6-outlet power strip can often be found for less than $10 while a 6-outlet surge protector might cost between $10 and $20. Not every device in your house needs to be plugged into a surge protector, just the expensive devices. A surge protector will have a rating in Joules of energy, as well as the maximum voltage it can take from a power spike. If you find those numbers either on the box it came it or on the strip itself, then it is a surge protector. <P> Not all are the same. Power strips and surge protectors (also called surge suppressors) are different. Typically, power strips are cheap, multi-outlet products that are merely an expansion of a wall outlet. Surge protectors are an inexpensive way to protect your gear against random power spike damage. They're not all the same. Here are a few tips before you start shopping. <P> A device that shields computer and other electronic devices from surges in electrical power, or transient voltage, that flow from the power supply. Standard American voltage for home and office buildings is 120 volts. How it Works. A surge protector works by channeling the extra voltage into the outlet's grounding wire, preventing it from flowing through the electronic devices while at the same time allowing the normal voltage to continue along its path. <P> A good surge protector is one of those things everyone needs, but we often don't give much thought to—until we need one or something happens to the power. <P> In a lightning storm, you should never rely on your surge protector to save your computer. The best protection is to unplug your computer. A more common cause of power surges is the operation of high-power electrical devices, such as elevators, air conditioners and refrigerators. A whole-house surge protector will suppress power surges stemming from outside sources -- utility company problems, transformer switching, etc. -- but won't do anything to suppress the high number of power surges that originate inside your house, due to the operations of your appliances. <P> A surge protector will also protect your electronic devices from a power spike. A power spike is a temporary, very high increase in power that lasts for a fraction of a second. They can be caused by lightning strikes (however unlikely), power outages, tripped circuit breakers, short circuits and more. A surge protector will have a rating in Joules of energy, as well as the maximum voltage it can take from a power spike. If you find those numbers either on the box it came it or on the strip itself, then it is a surge protector. <P> A surge protector (or surge suppressor) is an appliance/device designed to protect electrical devices from voltage spikes. A surge protector attempts to limit the voltage supplied to an electric device by either blocking or by shorting to ground any unwanted voltages above a safe threshold. A Trisil is a type of thyristor surge protection device (TSPD) , a specialized solid-state electronic device used in crowbar circuits to protect against overvoltage conditions. A SIDACtor is another thyristor type device used for similar protective purposes. <P> When a surge moves through the electrical circuit in a house or building, the surge protector diverts the energy away from connected electronic devices. It’s important to understand that not all power strips offer surge protection. Surge Protector Strips. The most common form of point-of-use protection is the surge protector strip. You plug multiple devices into the strip and plug the strip into a standard electrical outlet.

what is northern snakeheads preferred habitat
|
<P> Abstract. The northern snakehead (Channa argus) is a large piscivorous fish that is invasive in eastern Europe and has recently been introduced in North America. In the winter (November–April), these fish moved to deeper water (~135 cm) with warmer temperatures, but habitat selection was weak at both scales. Northern snakeheads returned to shallower water (~95 cm) in the prespawn season (April–June) and used milfoil and other cover. Habitat selection was the strongest at both meso-and microhabitat scales during the spawning season (June–September), when fish preferred macrophytes and cover in shallow water (~88 cm) <P> Northern Snakehead. Northern snakeheads (Channa argus) are a fish native to eastern Asia (Courtenay and Williams, 2004), and were recently introduced to North America. Summary. Northern snakeheads (Channa argus) are a fish native to eastern Asia (Courtenay and Williams, 2004), and were recently introduced to North America. The first reproducing population was found in Crofton Pond, MD, in 2002 and was eradicated that year when Maryland DNR poisoned the pond with Rotenone <P> The northern snakehead (Channa argus) is a type of snakehead fish native to China, Russia, North Korea, and South Korea. In Europe, the first report of the species was from Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic) in 1956. In the United States, the fish is considered to be a highly invasive species. <P> The northern snakehead is an invasive fish native to China, Russia and Korea. Other snakehead species are native to parts of Asia and Africa. <P> The northern snakehead is an aggressive freshwater fish that can grow to be about 4 feet long. It has been found in a variety of freshwater lakes, swamps, ponds, and streams of various temperatures, but cannot tolerate saltwater. The northern snakehead fish is native to parts of Asia and Africa. <P> They have been found in Florida, North Carolina, California and Massachusetts. Northern snakeheads are a predatory fish and will compete with other fish species for forage and habitat. It is too early to say what impact the presence of snakeheads will have on other species already in Meadow Lake and other waters. <P> PATHWAYS/HISTORY: The northern snakehead is native to areas of China, Russia, and Korea. In the United States, the snakehead was first discovered in 1977 within Silverwood Lake, California. In 2002, this species was discovered in a pond in Crofton, Maryland. In 2008, the northern snakehead was found in drainage ditches in Arkansas, as a result of a commercial fish farming accident. It is feared that recent flooding allowed the species to spread into the nearby White River, which would allow for the eventual population of the fish in the Arkansas and Mississippi Rivers. <P> The northern snakehead is a large fish that has a long body with a mottled, snake-like pattern. (U.S. Geological Survey Archive/Bugwood.org). The northern snakehead is a large, long fish with a mottled, snake-like pattern. It lives in the Potomac River and its local creeks and streams. It is an invasive species.

what is subnormal temperature in infants
|
<P> In fact, for children under eight years of age, and especially for infants, the severity of a fever is an unreliable indicator of the severity of the child s illness. For example, infants and toddlers can be very sick with a low or even subnormal temperature. <P> An increase in body temperature is one of the first signs of an infection or an illness in humans. The average body temperature for infants range from 97 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit or 38 degrees Celsius, and anything above that is generally considered a fever. Children and infants with a fever need to be watched and comforted with lukewarm baths or sponge baths. 1 Low body temperature in children could also be due to an excessive loss of blood due to injuries. 2 Low body temperature could occur due to septic shocks and as a side effect of fever medicines. 3 Hypothermia could also be due to anemia (low count of red blood cells). 4 Drop in the child's blood sugar levels. <P> Also, your normal body temperature changes by as much as 1°F (0.6°C) throughout the day, depending on how active you are and the time of day. Body temperature is very sensitive to hormone levels and may be higher or lower when a woman is ovulating or having her menstrual period. The body is very good at keeping its temperature within a narrow, safe range in spite of large variations in temperatures outside the body. When you are too hot, the blood vessels in your skin expand (dilate) to carry the excess heat to your skin's surface. <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. <P> Running a subnormal temperature can indicate infection in your body, particularly in babies and small children. Although running a higher-than-normal temperature is a more common symptom of infection, Medline Plus explains that this is not always the case. Hypothermia. One of the most obvious causes for a subnormal temperature is hypothermia. The condition, to which older people are more susceptible than younger adults and children, occurs when body temperature drops to 95 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. <P> A normal human body temperature is on average 98.6 F (37 C) orally. The normal range can be as low as 97.5 and as high as 98.8 F (36.4 to 37.1 C). The body temperature is considered dangerously low when it's below 95 F (35 C). There are some people with average temperatures in the 96 F range who are fine. <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) . The body is very good at keeping its temperature within a narrow, safe range in spite of large variations in temperatures outside the body. When you are too hot, the blood vessels in your skin expand (dilate) to carry the excess heat to your skin's surface. <P> A normal body temperature in a human registers at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Like your weight, your body temperature fluctuates throughout the day. Sustained periods of time in which you run a fever, or a higher-than-normal temperature, can indicate illness. Hypothermia. One of the most obvious causes for a subnormal temperature is hypothermia. The condition, to which older people are more susceptible than younger adults and children, occurs when body temperature drops to 95 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. <P> The normal body temperatures for children are the same as an adult human and are considered to be between 36 to 36.8 degrees Celsius or 96.8 to 98.2 degrees Fahrenheit. In a child, any temperature that exceeds 36 degrees Celsius or 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit is considered to be high and is medically classed as a fever. 1 Low body temperature in children could also be due to an excessive loss of blood due to injuries. 2 Low body temperature could occur due to septic shocks and as a side effect of fever medicines. 3 Hypothermia could also be due to anemia (low count of red blood cells). 4 Drop in the child's blood sugar levels.

what do antidiuretic hormones do
|
<P> Vasopressin regulates the body's retention of water by acting to increase water reabsorption in the kidney's collecting ducts, the tubules which receive the very dilute urine produced by the functional unit of the kidney, the nephrons. Vasopressin released within the brain has many actions: 1 Vasopressin is released into the brain in a circadian rhythm by neurons of the suprachiasmatic nucleus. 2 Vasopressin released from centrally projecting hypothalamic neurons is involved in aggression, blood pressure regulation, and temperature regulation. <P> Antidiuretic hormone binds to receptors on cells in the collecting ducts of the kidney and promotes reabsorption of water back into the circulation. In the absense of antidiuretic hormone, the collecting ducts are virtually impermiable to water, and it flows out as urine. Antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorbtion by stimulating insertion of water channels or aquaporins into the membranes of kidney tubules. These channels transport solute-free water through tubular cells and back into blood, leading to a decrease in plasma osmolarity and an increase osmolarity of urine. <P> The ADH test measures how much antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is in the blood. ADH is a hormone that helps your kidneys manage the amount of water in your body. The test is seldom used alone, but is often combined with other tests to find out what is causing too much or too little of this hormone to be present in the blood. ADH is also called arginine vasopressin. It is a water-regulating hormone made by the hypothalamus (in the brain), and stored in the posterior pituitary gland. ADH is the chemical that tells the kidneys how much water to conserve. <P> Antidiuretic hormone, also called arginine vasopressin (AVP), is a hormone produced by the hypothalamus in the brain and stored in the posterior pituitary gland at the base of the brain. ADH helps regulate water balance in the body. A variety of disorders, conditions, and medications can affect either the amount of ADH released or the kidneys' response to it. <P> Antidiuretic hormone (ADH): A relatively small (peptide) molecule that is released by the pituitary gland at the base of the brain after being made nearby (in the hypothalamus). ADH has an antidiuretic action that prevents the production of dilute urine (and so is antidiuretic). A syndrome of inappropriate secretion of ADH results in the inability to put out dilute urine, perturbs fluid (and electrolyte) balance, and causes nausea, vomiting, muscle cramps, confusion and convulsions. <P> Physiologic Effects of Antidiuretic Hormone. Effects on the Kidney. The single most important effect of antidiuretic hormone is to conserve body water by reducing the loss of water in urine. A diuretic is an agent that increases the rate of urine formation. Antidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorbtion by stimulating insertion of water channels or aquaporins into the membranes of kidney tubules. These channels transport solute-free water through tubular cells and back into blood, leading to a decrease in plasma osmolarity and an increase osmolarity of urine. <P> Vasopressin, also known as arginine vasopressin (AVP), antidiuretic hormone (ADH), or argipressin, is a neurohypophysial hormone found in most mammals. Its two primary functions are to retain water in the body and to constrict blood vessels. Vasopressin released within the brain has many actions: 1 Vasopressin is released into the brain in a circadian rhythm by neurons of the suprachiasmatic nucleus. 2 Vasopressin released from centrally projecting hypothalamic neurons is involved in aggression, blood pressure regulation, and temperature regulation. <P> Print | Email article to a friend | Last updated: January 07, 2015. Anti-diuretic hormone acts to maintain blood pressure, blood volume and tissue water content by controlling the amount of water and hence the concentration of urine excreted by the kidney. Alternative names for anti-diuretic hormone Vasopressin; arginine vasopressin; AVP; ADH. <P> Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also called arginine vasopressin (AVP), is a hormone that helps regulate water balance in the body by controlling the amount of water the kidneys reabsorb while they are filtering wastes out of the blood. This test measures the amount of ADH in the blood. ADH is produced by the hypothalamus in the brain and stored in the posterior pituitary gland at the base of the brain. ADH is normally released by the pituitary in response to sensors that detect an increase in blood osmolality (number of dissolved particles in the blood) or decrease in blood volume. <P> Vasopressin is a peptide hormone that increases water permeability of the kidney's collecting duct and distal convoluted tubule by inducing translocation of aquaporin-CD water channels in the plasma membrane of collecting duct cells. Vasopressin released within the brain has many actions: 1 Vasopressin is released into the brain in a circadian rhythm by neurons of the suprachiasmatic nucleus. 2 Vasopressin released from centrally projecting hypothalamic neurons is involved in aggression, blood pressure regulation, and temperature regulation.

<P> 1 If your turkey has been stuffed, it is important to check the temperature of the dressing; it should be 165 degrees F (75 degrees C). 2 When the turkey is done, remove from the oven and allow to stand for 20-30 minutes before carving. <P> 1 Place your turkey in the oven. 2 When the turkey is about ⅔ done, loosely cover breast and top of drumsticks with a piece of foil to prevent overcooking. 3 Your turkey is done when the temperature with a meat thermometer is 180° F in thigh and 165° F in breast or stuffing. <P> 4-1/2 to 5 hours. 5-1/2 to 6-1/4 hours. Cook the turkey until the skin is a light golden color, and then cover loosely with a foil tent. During the last 45 minutes of baking, remove the foil tent to brown the skin. Basting is not necessary, but will promote even browning. <P> 1 When the turkey is about ⅔ done, loosely cover breast and top of drumsticks with a piece of foil to prevent overcooking. 2 Your turkey is done when the temperature with a meat thermometer is 180° F in thigh and 165° F in breast or stuffing. 3 Lift turkey onto platter, and let stand for 15 minutes before carving. <P> 1 After about 3 hours, insert an oven-safe thermometer deep into the thigh without touching the bone. 2 Begin checking the turkey for doneness about 30 minutes before the recommended cook time. 3 Your turkey is done when the temperature with a meat thermometer is 180° F in thigh and 165° F in breast or stuffing. <P> Fill the turkey loosely and then cook the turkey right away. A whole turkey is safe when cooked to a minimum of 165 degrees F measured via a food thermometer. Check the internal temperature in the inner thigh, the wing, and the thickest part of the breast area. Consumers can cook the turkey to higher temperatures. <P> About 45 minutes before you think the turkey is done, remove the foil from the breast to allow it to brown. 7. Remove the turkey from the oven and use an instant-read thermometer to determine temperature; it should read 165 degrees F at the thigh when it's done.

what is a trunked scanner?
|
<P> The introduction and popularity of trunked systems caused a problem for hobbyists with conventional scanners, however. Since the trunking system might send a call and its response on different frequencies, it is difficult to listen to trunked communications using a regular scanner. <P> A trunked radio system is a complex type of computer-controlled two-way radio system that allows sharing of relatively few radio frequency channels among a large group of users. A talkgroup is an assigned group on a trunked radio system. Unlike a conventional radio which assigns users a certain frequency, a trunk system takes a number of frequencies allocated to the system. <P> Trunking is an idea that has been around for a while. Phone companies have been using switching systems for years, which is similar to trunking. All stations and mobile units in a trunked radio system usually share a group of five or more channels. Some large agencies may have a trunking system all to itself. <P> The scanner radios below are all trunking models which also can scan regular (conventional) radio systems. The most expensive models are also digital which is required on many trunked and non-trunked systems. Check policescanners.net or call 1-800-SCANNER to check what type of scanner is required in your area. Whistler WS1095. Many cities, counties and even entire states in the U.S. and Canada use trunking radio systems for public safety communications. Trunking allows agencies to provide dozens or even hundreds of groups of users to share a small number of computer-controlled radio frequencies. <P> Most scanners that can listen to trunked radio systems (called trunk tracking) are able to scan and store individual talkgroups just as if they were frequencies. The difference in this case is that the groups are assigned to a certain bank in which the trunked system is programmed. A talkgroup is an assigned group on a trunked radio system. Unlike a conventional radio which assigns users a certain frequency, a trunk system takes a number of frequencies allocated to the system. <P> (Redirected from Trunking Scanner). A HomePatrol-1 Uniden digital touchscreen scanner. A scanner is a radio receiver that can automatically tune, or scan, two or more discrete frequencies, stopping when it finds a signal on one of them and then continuing to scan other frequencies when the initial transmission ceases. <P> FAQS. A TrunkTracker is a Uniden scanner that is capable of tracking analog trunked two-way radio systems used by police, fire, EMS, public works, and business users to name just a few. For an explanation of trunking, pleaseclick here. I paid $300 from Grove Enterprises when they first came out. <P> The terms radio scanner or police scanner generally refer to a communications receiver that is primarily intended for monitoring VHF and UHF landmobile radio systems, as opposed to, for instance, a receiver used to monitor international shortwave transmissions. A HomePatrol-1 Uniden digital touchscreen scanner. A scanner is a radio receiver that can automatically tune, or scan, two or more discrete frequencies, stopping when it finds a signal on one of them and then continuing to scan other frequencies when the initial transmission ceases. <P> Trunked radio systems differ from conventional radio systems in that a conventional radio system uses a dedicated channel (frequency) for each individual group of users, while trunking radio systems use a pool of channels which are available for a great many different groups of users. A talkgroup is an assigned group on a trunked radio system. Unlike a conventional radio which assigns users a certain frequency, a trunk system takes a number of frequencies allocated to the system. <P> TRUNKING THEORY 101. More and more public safety agencies are moving to trunked radio systems, making it difficult for scanner listeners to follow the action. Newcomers to trunking need a good introduction to all the terminology and equipment, and even old hands have a question now and then. Fundamentally there are two types of trunking. The first, called message trunking, is when the same channel is held for the entire conversation. This is usually done just for telephone calls or other special communications, and is the norm in cellular telephone systems.

how long does it take to bake little potato
|
<P> I bake them for my 13 month old daughter all of the time. I make them for her when I am baking regular potatoes, so I do Sweet potatoes that same way. About an hour or so on 400. I go a little longer if the potatoes are bigger. I don't wrap them, I just poke them a few times with a fork and toss them in the oven. <P> This is the reason that baked potatoes are usually a staple in every household. The popularity of baked potatoes also depends on how long does it take to bake a potato. In a conventional oven the time taken to bake a potato at 375 degrees is approximately thirty minutes. <P> 1 Turn the oven on to 425. 2 Bake for 45 minutes for sweet potatoes/yams that are 2-3 inches in diameter. 3 For sweet potatoes that are up to 4 inches in diameter, bake for an hour. 4 For super large sweet potatoes, bake for an hour and 15 minutes. <P> If you are baking potatoes in the oven, you can rub a small amount of oil on them so that the skin gets nice and crispy. It is not necessary to rub oil on potatoes you are cooking in the microwave oven. Place the potato on a microwave-safe dish. Check the small print on the back of the dish to be sure. <P> 1 Bake the potatoes: You can bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack, or you can place them a few inches apart on a foil-lined baking sheet. 2 Bake the potatoes for 50 to 60 minutes. 3 Flip them over every 20 minutes or so and check them for doneness by piercing them with a fork. <P> 1 Don't preheat the oven. 2 Prick your sweet potatoes each 2-3 time with a fork, then place them directly on the oven rack in the middle of the oven, above the foil. 3 Turn the oven on to 425. 4 Bake for 45 minutes for sweet potatoes/yams that are 2-3 inches in diameter. <P> 1 Bake for 45 minutes for sweet potatoes/yams that are 2-3 inches in diameter. 2 For sweet potatoes that are up to 4 inches in diameter, bake for an hour. 3 For super large sweet potatoes, bake for an hour and 15 minutes. 4 After the time has elapsed, don't open the oven but turn it off. <P> Once you have mashed the potatoes you can add buttermilk, cream, sour cream butter, cheese or a variety of combinations of these ingredients to your mashed potatoes to create unique flavors. Once your mashed potatoes are appreciated it will not matter how long does it take to bake a potato.

definition for velocity
|
<P> By Andrew Zimmerman Jones. Definition: Velocity is a vector measurement of the rate and direction of motion or, in other terms, the rate and direction of the change in the position of an object. The scalar (absolute value) magnitude of the velocity vector is the speed of the motion. <P> Velocity. In kinematics, velocity is the rate of change of the position of an object, equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion. Speed describes only how fast an object is moving, whereas velocity gives both how fast and in what direction the object is moving. <P> Velocity. The average speed of an object is defined as the distance traveled divided by the time elapsed. Velocity is a vector quantity, and average velocity can be defined as the displacement divided by the time. For the special case of straight line motion in the x direction, the average velocity takes the form: <P> Velocity is a vector quantity that describes the speed and direction that an object is moving. It is the same as speed except that it includes the direction of the object as well. Speed is the rate of change of distance. In common language, velocity is often used imprecisely to mean speed. <P> Velocity is a vector expression of the displacement that an object or particle undergoes with respect to time. The standard unit of velocity magnitude (also known as speed) is the meter per second (m/s). Alternatively, the centimeter per second (cm/s) can be used to express velocity magnitude.
