It means Standard Temperature and Pressure. -Standard temperature is equal to 0 °C, which is 273 K. -Standard pressure is equal to 1 atm 760 mmhg or torr and 101.3 KPa. …. <P> The definition of STP-Standard Temperature and Pressure and NTP-Normal Temperature and Pressure. Since temperature and air pressure vary from place to place it is necessary with a standard reference condition to compare testing and documentation of chemical and physical processes. Note! STP, NTP and other definitions should therefore be used with care. It is always important to know the reference temperature and reference pressure for the actual definition used. <P> Standard temperature and pressure, abbreviated STP, refers to nominal conditions in the atmosphere at sea level. This value is important to physicists, chemists, engineers, and pilots and navigators. Standard pressure supports 760 millimeters in a mercurial barometer (760 mmHg). This is about 29.9 inches of mercury, and represents approximately 14.7 pounds per inch (14.7 lb/in 2). Imagine a column of air measuring one inch square, extending straight up into space beyond the atmosphere. <P> STP stands for standard temperature and pressure. These standards have been set by the IUPAC. For STP conditions, the temperature is 237.15K and pressure is 1 bar.

standard cost variances | <P> Direct materials price variance is the difference between the actual purchase price and standard purchase price of materials. Direct materials price variance is calculated either at the time of purchase of direct materials or at the time when the direct materials are used. Direct Materials Quantity Variance: Direct materials quantity variance or Direct materials usage variance measures the difference between the quantity of materials used in production and the quantity that should have been used according to the standard that has been set. <P> A credit to the variance account indicates that the actual cost is less than the standard cost. After this transaction is recorded, the Direct Materials Price Variance account shows an overall credit balance of $190. A credit balance in a variance account is always favorable. In other words, your company's profit will be $190 greater than planned due to the favorable cost of direct materials. A debit balance in a variance account is always unfavorable—it shows that the total of actual costs is higher than the total of the expected standard costs. In other words, your company's profit will be $50 less than planned unless you take some action. <P> The Direct Materials Usage Variance is: [the standard quantity of material that should have been used to make the good output minus the actual quantity of material used] X the standard cost per yard. In our example, DenimWorks should have used 278 yards of material to make 100 large aprons and 60 small aprons. Because Direct Materials Inventory reports the standard cost of the actual materials on hand, we reduce the account balance by $870 (290 yards used $3 standard cost per yard). After removing 290 yards of materials, the balance in the Direct Materials Inventory account is $2,130 (710 yards x $3 standard cost per yard) <P> On January 8 DenimWorks' Direct Materials Inventory is increased by the standard cost of $3,000 (1,000 yards of denim at the standard cost of $3 per yard), Accounts Payable is credited for $2,900 (the actual amount owed to the supplier), and the difference of $100 is credited to Direct Materials Price Variance. A debit balance in a variance account is always unfavorable—it shows that the total of actual costs is higher than the total of the expected standard costs. In other words, your company's profit will be $50 less than planned unless you take some action. <P> Production variances are calculated after you end a production order for a standard cost item. The variances reflect a comparison between the reported production activities and the calculation of standard costs for the production item. <P> Standard Cost Variances. A variance is the difference between the actual cost incurred and the standard cost against which it is measured. A variance can also be used to measure the difference between actual and expected sales. Thus, variance analysis can be used to review the performance of both revenue and expens <P> Direct Materials Inventory is debited for the standard cost of $9,000 (3,000 yards at $3 per yard), Accounts Payable is credited for the actual amount owed, and the difference of $240 is credited to Direct Materials Price Variance. A debit balance in a variance account is always unfavorable—it shows that the total of actual costs is higher than the total of the expected standard costs. In other words, your company's profit will be $50 less than planned unless you take some action. <P> If actual cost exceeds the standard costs, it is an unfavorable variance. On the other hand, if actual cost is less than the standard cost, it is a favorable variance. Variance analysis is usually conducted for. 1 Direct material costs (price and quantity variances); 2 Direct labor costs (wage rate and efficiency variances); and. Standard costing is the establishment of cost standards for activities and their periodic analysis to determine the reasons for any variances. Standard costing is a tool that helps management account in controlling costs. For example, at the beginning of a year a company estimates that labor costs should be $2 per unit | The standard cost of $9,000. |
what are symptoms of dogs torn acl | <P> The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) is the ligament that holds the femur and the tibia together from the front of the knee. It is most commonly torn on the back leg but can be torn on any leg. If your dog tore his ACL suddenly, it most likely happened during play or excited activity. The most common symptom of a torn ACL is sudden lameness in the injured leg. Your dog will not want to put pressure on the leg at all, causing obvious limping and reluctance to participate in activities that your dog used to enjoy. <P> Dog Torn ACL Symptoms. Acute injuries occur due to sudden accidents and trauma to the dog’s leg. The dog torn ACL symptoms for an acute injury are usually more severe than those exhibited by dogs that have chronic injuries. In the chronic condition, the dog’s injury builds up slowly due to overuse and stress on the ligament. There is no specific breed that is more prone to developing a dog torn ACL. This injury could happen to any dog, at any age. However large dogs, that are more athletic, usually experience more number of injuries. Even young athletic dogs that receive a lot of exercise and dog training may develop a torn ACL. <P> The other easily recognized symptom is a swollen knee, which will appear large but will cause your dog pain to the touch. In small dogs, a luxating patella may lead to a torn ACL. These symptoms include sudden pain in your dog as his knee becomes popped out of joint. This is often short-lived as your dog will pop the knee back in place and often appear fine after a few hours. The most common symptom of a torn ACL is sudden lameness in the injured leg. Your dog will not want to put pressure on the leg at all, causing obvious limping and reluctance to participate in activities that your dog used to enjoy. <P> A tear or rupture leads to joint swelling, pain and instability in the knee joint. If left untreated it will cause lameness in the affected rear leg and, ultimately, chronic irreversible degenerative joint changes. Damage to the ACL is a major cause of progressive osteoarthritis in the knee joint of dogs. Nearly all dogs with tearing or damage to their cruciate ligament will have swelling that is felt on the front part of their knee. Symptoms may include: 1 Lameness or weakness in one or both hind legs. 2 Limping or reluctance to use one or both hind legs. 3 Limping worsens with exercise and improves with rest. <P> Damage to the cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) is the most common cause of canine hind limb lameness and is a major cause of degenerative joint disease in the stifle (knee) joint of companion dogs. The cranial cruciate ligament is critical to stabilizing a dog’s stifle, which is the equivalent of the human knee. The outward signs of cruciate damage depend upon the severity of the injury, which can range from a partial tear to a complete rupture of the affected ligament. Without surgical correction and appropriate post-operative management, the effects of CCL injuries can progress and become permanent. <P> Dog torn ACL is a common condition owing to the many injuries that dogs experience. Whether it is a large or a small breed dog, any of them could experience this injury. A lot of people feel that dog torn ACL is common among those dogs that receive very little exercise. There is no specific breed that is more prone to developing a dog torn ACL. This injury could happen to any dog, at any age. However large dogs, that are more athletic, usually experience more number of injuries. Even young athletic dogs that receive a lot of exercise and dog training may develop a torn ACL. <P> Symptoms. Symptoms of a severe and sudden (acute) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury include: 1 Feeling or hearing a pop in the knee at the time of injury. 2 Sudden instability in the knee. 3 Pain on the outside and back of the knee. 4 Knee swelling within the first few hours of the injury. 5 Limited knee movement because of swelling and/or pain. Other health problems can cause symptoms like those of an ACL injury. They include a bone break or injuries to the knee cushions (menisci) or to other ligaments in the knee. For more information on knee injuries, see: 1 Knee Problems and Injuries. <P> In this article. If your dog goes lame in one of his hind legs, he may have torn or ruptured his cranial cruciate ligament, or CCL – similar to the ACL in humans. This ligament connects the back of the femur (the bone above the knee) with the front of the tibia (the bone below the knee). CCL injuries in dogs are one of the most commonly seen orthopedic problems. Depending on the severity of the CCL injury, a dog’s symptoms might range from having a hint of lameness to being unable to bear weight on the injured leg. A dog with an CCL injury may also have swelling on the inside of the knee. <P> There are many different causes for a torn ACL injury. A torn cruciate ligament is the most common cause of a torn ACL ligament. A common injury among athletes, the cruciate ligament injuries may also occur in dogs. There is no specific breed that is more prone to developing a dog torn ACL. This injury could happen to any dog, at any age. However large dogs, that are more athletic, usually experience more number of injuries. Even young athletic dogs that receive a lot of exercise and dog training may develop a torn ACL. <P> Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries are one of the most common orthopedic injuries veterinarians see in dogs. The ligament is also known as the Cranial Cruciate Ligament (CCL) in animals. It connects the bone above the knee (the femur) with the bone below the knee (the tibia). Nearly all dogs with tearing or damage to their cruciate ligament will have swelling that is felt on the front part of their knee. Symptoms may include: 1 Lameness or weakness in one or both hind legs. 2 Limping or reluctance to use one or both hind legs. 3 Limping worsens with exercise and improves with rest. | 1 Feeling or hearing a pop in the knee at the time of injury.2 Sudden instability in the knee. 3 Pain on the outside and back of the knee. 4 Knee swelling within the first few hours of the injury. 5 Limited knee movement because of swelling and/or pain. |

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In physiology, dead space is the volume of air which is inhaled that does not take part in the gas exchange, either because it (1) remains in the conducting airways, or (2) reaches alveoli that are not perfused or poorly perfused. Anatomical dead space is that portion of the airways (such as the mouth and trachea to the bronchioles) which conducts gas to the alveoli. No gas exchange is possible in these spaces. <P> alveolar dead space the difference between anatomical dead space and physiologic dead space, representing the space in alveoli occupied by air that does not participate in oxygen–carbon dioxide exchange (alveolar ventilation). Physiologic dead space is an area in the respiratory system that includes the anatomic dead space together with the space in the alveoli occupied by air that does not contribute to the oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange. <P> There are two different ways to define dead space-- anatomic and physiologic. Anatomic dead space is the total volume of the conducting airways from the nose or mouth down to the level of the terminal bronchioles, and is about 150 ml on the average in humans. Dead space is the portion of each tidal volume that does not take part in gas exchange. <P> Medical Definition of PHYSIOLOGICAL DEAD SPACE. : the total dead space in the entire respiratory system including the alveoli—compare anatomical dead space.

how long do you cook lamb roast | <P> Put an onion or two in the pan and 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary. Place the roasting pan in the oven set at 350F(190C) for 15-20 minutes per pound (you don't want to cook lamb well done, but more medium to medium rare) a 6 pound leg should take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove the cover(or foil) for the last 15 minutes of roasting time.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Using your hands, rub the lamb all over with the lemon juice. Pat the garlic and rosemary evenly all over the surface of the meat. Season the meat with the salt and pepper and place the lamb in a roasting pan. Place the lamb in the oven and roast for 30 minutes. <P> 4 Roast at 425°F for 20 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 300°F and roast an additional 40 minutes (for a 6 pound boneless roast) to an hour (for a 6 pound bone-in roast). If you are cooking a roast bone-in, the bone will act as an insulator and will require a longer cooking time than a boneless roast. If you are cooking the roast directly in a roasting pan, rack or not, start the roast at 450°F and then reduce the heat to 325°F. Also, the shape of the roast will have an impact on the cooking time. Our roast was rather long and thin, so it cooked up fairly quickly. A thicker roast may take longer than expected. <P> 1 Place leg of lamb on a rack in a roasting pan. 2 Preheat oven to 325 degrees and bake leg of lamb uncovered for 30 minutes per pound or until internal temperature reaches 120 to 130 degrees at the thickest point. 1 <P> 1.

what is legislative lobbying | <P> The definition of who is a lobbyist usually revolves around compensation. Most states define a lobbyist as someone who receives any amount of compensation or reimbursement to lobby. Among the exceptions are Hawaii, Minnesota and New York. How States Define Lobbying and Lobbyist. This table is intended to provide general information and does not necessarily address all aspects of this topic. Because the facts of each situation may vary, this information may need to be supplemented by consulting legal advisors. <P> Lobbying is done by many types of people, associations and organized groups, including individuals in the private sector, corporations, fellow legislators or government officials, or advocacy groups (interest groups). For example, a medical association may lobby a legislature about increasing the restrictions in smoking prevention laws, and tobacco companies lobby to reduce them: the first regarding smoking as injurious to health and the second arguing it is part of the freedom of choice. <P> Lobbying (also lobby) is the act of attempting to influence decisions made by officials in a government, most often legislators or members of regulatory agencies. For example, a medical association may lobby a legislature about increasing the restrictions in smoking prevention laws, and tobacco companies lobby to reduce them: the first regarding smoking as injurious to health and the second arguing it is part of the freedom of choice. <P> Although lobbying as a whole serves as a checks-and-balances safeguard on the legislative process, individual lobbyists are not necessarily equal. Unlike voters, who each get one vote, lobbyists vary in their degree of influence. The practice of lobbying is considered so essential to the proper functioning of the U.S. government that it is specifically protected by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution: Congress shall make no law … abridging … the right of the people peaceably … to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.. <P> Dictionary definitions: ' 1 Lobbying' (also 'lobby') is a form of advocacy with the intention of influencing decisions made by the government by individuals or more usually by lobby groups; it includes all attempts to influence legislators and officials, whether by other legislators, constituents, or organized groups. For example, a medical association may lobby a legislature about increasing the restrictions in smoking prevention laws, and tobacco companies lobby to reduce them: the first regarding smoking as injurious to health and the second arguing it is part of the freedom of choice. <P> A legislative lobbyist represents a corporation, advocacy group or other client before national and state legislatures and government agencies. One day he may meet with a member of Congress to express concerns about a proposed bill, and the next he may approach government agencies for federal funding. Some lobbyists represent clients at a state level, working with members of state legislatures, the governor’s office and state agencies. Others work in Washington, D.C., and meet with members of Congress on behalf of clients. <P> Legislative advocacy refers to efforts to influence the introduction, enactment, or modification of legislation. The most common means of legislative advocacy is direct lobbying, which entails contacting a legislator, sharing your views on an issue, and asking him or her to vote a specific way on a bill. This can be done with something as easy as a phone call or letter, or by a formal meeting with the legislator or staff person. <P> 1 'Lobbying' (also 'lobby') is a form of advocacy with the intention of influencing decisions made by the government by individuals or more usually by lobby groups; it includes all attempts to influence legislators and officials, whether by other legislators, constituents, or organized groups.

what was the role of slaves in the roman empire | <P> If a slave married and had children, the children would automatically become slaves. Young children were sometimes killed by their parents rather than let them become slaves. No-one is sure how many slaves existed in the Roman Empire. Even after Rome has passed it days of greatness, it is thought that 25% of all people in Rome were slaves. A rich man might own as many as 500 slaves and an emperor usually had more than 20,000 at his disposal <P> Slavery in ancient Rome played an important role in society and the economy. Besides manual labor, slaves performed many domestic services, and might be employed at highly skilled jobs and professions. Teachers, accountants, and physicians were often slaves. Greek slaves in particular might be highly educated. During the Pax Romana of the early Roman Empire (1st–2nd century CE), emphasis was placed on maintaining stability, and the lack of new territorial conquests dried up this supply line of human trafficking. To maintain an enslaved work force, increased legal restrictions on freeing slaves were put into place. <P> Estimates for the prevalence of slavery in the Roman Empire vary. Estimates of the percentage of the population of Italy who were slaves range from 30 to 40 percent in the 1st century BC, upwards of two to three million slaves in Italy by the end of the 1st century BCE, about 35% to 40% of Italy's population. During the Pax Romana of the early Roman Empire (1st–2nd century CE), emphasis was placed on maintaining stability, and the lack of new territorial conquests dried up this supply line of human trafficking. To maintain an enslaved work force, increased legal restrictions on freeing slaves were put into place. <P> Slavery in the Roman Empire. Slavery existed in Roman society from an early stage of its development. There were several ways you could become a slave in Rome. Some became slaves because they could not pay back the money they had borrowed. The government would also take people into slavery if they could not pay their taxes. There were also many cases of poor people selling their children as slaves to richer neighbours. The demand for slaves in Rome had also grown during this period. As more and more men were now needed for the army in order to extend and maintain the Roman Empire, there were fewer men available to work the fields. <P> A common practice. Slavery had a long history in the ancient world and was practiced in Ancient Egypt and Greece, as well as Rome. Most slaves during the Roman Empire were foreigners and, unlike in modern times, Roman slavery was not based on race. Slavery in ancient Rome differed from its modern forms in that it was not based on race. But like modern slavery, it was an abusive and degrading institution. <P> Slaves in Rome might include prisoners of war, sailors captured and sold by pirates, or slaves bought outside Roman territory. In hard times, it was not uncommon for desperate Roman citizens to raise money by selling their children into slavery. Slavery in ancient Rome differed from its modern forms in that it was not based on race. But like modern slavery, it was an abusive and degrading institution. <P> With the growth in the empire, the number of slaves in Rome grew rapidly. Roman generals in their campaigns abroad sent back thousands of captured soldiers to be sold as slaves. In the campaign against the Gauls (59 to 51 BC) it is reported that Julius Caesar and his army over a million people were captured as slaves. The demand for slaves in Rome had also grown during this period. As more and more men were now needed for the army in order to extend and maintain the Roman Empire, there were fewer men available to work the fields. <P> Roman Slavery. Slavery in the ancient world and in Rome was vital to both the economy and even the social fabric of the society. While it was commonplace throughout the Mediterranean region, and the Hellenistic regions in the east, it was not nearly so vital to others as it was to the dominance of Rome. <P> Slavery was an important part of the ancient world, and it was an integral piece of Roman daily life and the economy. Though slavery was practiced all over the Mediterranean, and was abundant in the east, its impact in other places was not felt nearly as much as it was in Rome and her Empire. <P> Slavery was an ever-present feature of the Roman world. Slaves served in households, agriculture, mines, the military, manufacturing workshops, construction and a wide range of services within the city. The number and proportion of slaves in society varied over time and place, for example, in Augustan Italy the figure was as high as 30% whilst in Roman Egypt slaves made up only 10% of the total population. Although slave ownership was wider than in the Greek world, it remained a prerogative of the reasonably well-off. | Besides manual labor, slaves performed many domestic services, and might be employed at highly skilled jobs and professions. |

when do octopus reproduce | <P> Octopus Breeding. Depending on the species of Octopus, mating can occur from a couple of months of age or when they are several years old. Depending on the type of species there may be some courting and ritual going on before the actual mating occurs. With most of the species though it is more a matter of convenience than anything else <P> An octopus (/ˈɒktəpʊs/ or /ˈɒktəpəs/ ; plural: octopuses, octopi, or octopodes; see below) is a cephalopod mollusc of the order Octopoda. It has two eyes and four pairs of arms and, like other cephalopods, it is bilaterally symmetric. An octopus has a beak, with its mouth at the center point of the arms. The giant Pacific octopus, Enteroctopus dofleini, is often cited as the largest known octopus species. Adults usually weigh around 15 kg (33 lb), with an arm span of up to 4.3 m (14 ft). The largest specimen of this species to be scientifically documented was an animal with a live mass of 71 kg (156.5 lb). <P> Reproduction in octopuses is surprising. Both males and females are relatively short lived, and die not long after reproduction. In the male, the third right arm is specialized for reproduction and is called a hectocotylus. He uses this arm to insert a spermatophore (sperm packet) into the female. Within a few weeks of copulation, the male dies. The female octopus can store the sperm and fertilizes her eggs once her den is ready. She will seal herself inside her den using rocks, and once the eggs are fertilized, she will lay anywhere from 20 000 to 100 000 of them in strings on the upper side of the den <P> Best Answer: Reproduction in octopuses is surprising. Both males and females are relatively short lived, and die not long after reproduction. In the male, the third right armis specialized for reproduction and is called a hectocotylus. He uses this arm to insert a spermatophore (sperm packet) into the female. <P> The blue-ringed octopus reproduces sexually. Once the adult octopus reaches adulthood, it usually has the urge to mate. This is their main purpose in life, just like many other animals. The male gets attracted to the female by caressing her with the modified arm. The male octopus uses one of his arms and it is modified for mating. <P> When octopuses reproduce, the male uses a specialized arm called a hectocotylus to transfer spermatophores (packets of sperm) from the terminal organ of the reproductive tract (the cephalopod penis) into the female's mantle cavity. The hectocotylus in benthic octopuses is usually the third right arm. The giant Pacific octopus, Enteroctopus dofleini, is often cited as the largest known octopus species. Adults usually weigh around 15 kg (33 lb), with an arm span of up to 4.3 m (14 ft). The largest specimen of this species to be scientifically documented was an animal with a live mass of 71 kg (156.5 lb). <P> Octopus Reproduction: Birth, Life, Death, and Birth Again. A juvenile octopus grows at a rapid rate, perhaps because of its short life span. Extremely effective at turning the food it eats into body mass, a young octopus increases its weight by 5 percent each day. Once the octopus reaches adulthood, it will eventually get the urge to mate. As with most creatures, the octopus's main purpose in life is to reproduce. However, if it knew just what was waiting for it soon after, it might think twice. Both the male and female octopuses die soon after mating | When they Reaches adulthood. |

They are an important part of preventive health care. Screening tests help detect disease in its earliest and most treatable stages. Therefore, they are most valuable when they are used to screen for diseases that are both serious and treatable, so that there is a benefit to detecting the disease before symptoms begin.

what landforms are formed at constructive plate boundary | <P> Tectonics and Landforms Plate Boundaries Along the boundary of the Earth's tectonic plates a fiery drama of catastrophic proportions is played out. Movement of the Earth's crust creates earthquake activity and in some places great outpourings of lava extrude onto the surface. A spreading or divergent boundary occurs where plates are moving away (diverging) from one another, like that occuring along the midocean ridge where new crust is formed. Convergent boundaries are located where subduction is active and the lithosphere is being consumed. <P> Unique landforms are created at plates margins. There are four types of landforms created at plate margins: fold mountains, ocean trenches, composite volcanoes and shield volcanoes. Fold mountains are created at two types of plate boundary. 1 At destructive boundaries: where an oceanic and a continental plate moving together. 2 At collision boundaries: where two continental plates moving togther. Shield volcanoes are found at constructive plate boundaries. As the two plates move apart magma rises up from the mantle. It then rises up through a vent forming a volcano. 1 Shield volcanoes have a wide base and gently sloping sides. <P> In the theory of plate tectonics, the earth's crust is broken into plates that move around relative to each other. As a result of this movement, three types of plate boundaries are formed: divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries. To recap, there are three types of plate boundaries that are formed by the interactions of different plates. Divergent boundaries are boundaries where plates pull away from each other, forming mild earthquakes and volcanoes as magma comes to the surface. <P> Constructive or Divergent Margins. At these types of plate margins two plates are moving apart (DIVERGE) from each other in opposite directions. Convection currents moving in opposite directions (caused by the intense heat of the Earth's interior) in the mantle move two plates apart. Processes: seismicity and vulcanicity. Associated landforms: young fold mountains, rift valleys, ocean ridges, deep sea trenches and island arcs. . Volcanoes and earthquakes mainly occur along plate boundaries where magma can escape from the earth s mantle or where stresses build up between 2 plates rubbing together. <P> Landforms at Plate Margins. There are 2 main types of landform that occur at plate boundaries (in addition to volcanoes but information on these can be found here). These are fold mountains and ocean trenches. Fold Mountains. Fold mountains occur at collision plate boundaries where 2 pieces of continental crust meet <P> In plate tectonics, a divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary (also known as a constructive boundary or an extensional boundary) is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other. At divergent boundaries, two plates move apart from each other and the space that this creates is filled with new crustal material sourced from molten magma that forms below. The origin of new divergent boundaries at triple junctions is sometimes thought to be associated with the phenomenon known as hotspots. <P> Constructive plate boundary. A constructive plate boundary, sometimes called a divergent plate margin, occurs when plates move apart. Volcanoes are formed as magma wells up to fill the gap, and eventually new crust is formed. An example of a constructive plate boundary is the mid-Atlantic Ridge. <P> Fold mountains, ocean trenches, mid ocean ridges, shield volcanoes and composite volcanoes. There are 4 basic landforms that you need to know found at plate boundaries. These are fold mountains, mid ocean ridges, ocean trenches and types of volcano. The differences between volcano types can be found here. | Young fold mountains, rift valleys, ocean ridges, deep sea trenches and island arcs. |
average amount of blood in human body | <P> On the average, an adult human male who weighs 70 kg. has a blood volume of about 5 liters, or a little more than 5 quarts.. 5 L. Blood..

what unique invention did the mayan civilization make | <P> The Maya civilization was a Mesoamerican civilization developed by the Maya peoples, noted for the Maya hieroglyphic script, the only known fully developed writing system of the pre-Columbian Americas, as well as for its art, architecture, and mathematical and astronomical systems. <P> The ancient Maya built their civilization using ideas they learned from the Olmec, an earlier tribe. The Olmec society was built on agriculture. They established farming villages. They were the first people to built roads through the jungle, roads which were used by them as trade routes. The Maya, using their knowledge of astronomy, and building on the Olmec solar calendar, created the most accurate calendar in the ancient world. The Maya also created inventions of their own, inventions like the vast underground reservoirs that held fresh water safely in times of drought. <P> The Ancient Maya may be best-known in modern times for their supposed prediction of the apocalypse, but in fact, they were a surprisingly advanced culture of millions, inhabiting Middle America (the region between Mexico and South America) for thousands of years. Here are 10 fascinating facts about Mayan civilization. The Mayan number system was own as “calendar script”, and worked in conjunction with numerology, ritual astronomy and the calendar system that the Mayans themselves developed. The system included symbols for numbers zero through twenty, with the Mayans credited as the first culture to “discover” zero. <P> The Ancient Maya. Mayan civilization lasted for more than 2,000 years, but the period from about 300 A.D. to 900 A.D., known as the Classic Period, was its heyday. During that time, the Maya developed a complex understanding of astronomy <P> Save. The Mayans are an ancient civilization that emerged during 300 B.C. and 250 A.D. in parts of modern-day Mexico, Hondorus and Guatemala. The Mayan people lived as hunters and eventually adopted a system of farming. The civilization was at its peak from 600 A.D. to 900 A.D. During this time, the civilization developed a sophisticated system of writing. The Mayans also made advancements in mathematics and developed a functioning calendar system. Each day was given a specific name and a corresponding symbol. Later in their civilization’s development, the Mayans created a calendar that followed the solar year of 365 days. The Mayans gave names and symbols for each specific month in this calendar. There were a total of 18 months, with each month being 20 days. <P> As the Maya slowly took over the region from the Olmec, the Maya built on the many clever ideas of these earlier people. For example, the Olmec created a solar calendar. The Maya, using their knowledge of astronomy, and building on the Olmec solar calendar, created the most accurate calendar in the ancient world. The Maya also created inventions of their own, inventions like the vast underground reservoirs that held fresh water safely in times of drought. <P> Mathematics. Also interesting is that the Mayans independently developed a concept of zero in their numbering system by 36BC. While not generally considered a civilization known for their mathematics, they did nonetheless have an advanced grasp of it. Many of their dates and measurements are surprisingly specific <P> The ancient Mayan civilization was one of the most fascinating and influential cultures in our world s history. Factors that make it so interesting are the culture s curious sophistication and its sudden demise. <P> Here are some known ancient Mayan inventions. Maya specifically created, or rather invented, a 260 day cycle in order to allow them to accurately track the occurrence of successive conjunctions involving the Earth and Venus, over a full 2000 year grand cycle. The mayan's invented the ball game. The Mayans were great sportsmen and build huge ballcourts to play their games. The Great Ballcourt of Chich n Itz is 545 feet long and 225 feet wide overall. It has no vault, no discontinuity between the walls and is totally open to the sky. <P> While much of what was left of the ancient Maya culture was subsumed by the Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century, the legacy of Mayan scientific achievement lives on in the discoveries that archeologists continue to make about this amazing ancient culture. Mayan civilization lasted for more than 2,000 years, but the period from about 300 A.D. to 900 A.D., known as the Classic Period, was its heyday. | Vast underground reservoirs that held fresh water safely in times of drought. |

what is the function of the esophagus in a horse | <P> Anatomically and functionally, the esophagus is the least complex section of the digestive tube. Its role in digestion is simple: to convey boluses of food from the pharynx to the stomach. The esophagus begins as an extension of the pharynx in the back of the oral cavity. Absorption in the esophagus is virtually nil. The mucosa does contain mucous glands that are expressed as foodstuffs distend the esophagus, allowing mucus to be secreted and aid in lubrication. The body of the esophagus is bounded by physiologic sphincters known as the upper and lower esophageal sphincters. <P> because it brings your food to your stomach. the main function of the esophagus is a tube that connects our mouth to the stomach. it is also known as the gullet. the word esophagus comes from a greek word which means to carry what is eaten. The esophagus transports food from the mouth to the stomach. The passage food takes from mechanical digestion in the mouth to digestion in the stomach. It's function though is to help and provide a place for the food to travel down to your stomach. It carries the food from the pharynx to the stomach. It has smooth muscles that allow it to perform peristalsis <P> Stomach. The stomach of the horse is small in relation to the size of the animal and makes up only 10% of the capacity of the digestive system or 9-15 litres in volume. The natural feeding habit of the horse is to eat small amounts of roughages often. Domestication has brought a change to all this. The esophagus is around 1.5m in length in a mature horse. As the esophagus is quite long and the horse has very little reflux capacity, incorrectly chewed are large pieces of feed such as carrots etc can lodge inside the horse’s esophagus and can cause choke. <P> The esophagus is a long, thin, and muscular tube that connects the pharynx (throat) to the stomach. It forms an important piece of the gastrointestinal tract and functions as the conduit for food and liquids that have been swallowed into the pharynx to reach the stomach. <P> The tube that connects the pharynx (throat) with the stomach. The esophagus lies between the trachea (windpipe) and the spine. It passes down the neck, pierces the diaphragm just to the left of the midline, and joins the cardiac (upper) end of the stomach. The passage food takes from mechanical digestion in the mouth to digestion in the stomach. It's function though is to help and provide a place for the food to travel down to your stomach. It carries the food from the pharynx to the stomach. It has smooth muscles that allow it to perform peristalsis <P> Small Intestine. Digesta passes from the stomach into the small intestine. The small intestine is approximately 28% of the horses’ digestive tract, is 15-22m long and has a volume of 55-70 litres. This is the major site of digestion in the modern performance horse. The esophagus is around 1.5m in length in a mature horse. As the esophagus is quite long and the horse has very little reflux capacity, incorrectly chewed are large pieces of feed such as carrots etc can lodge inside the horse’s esophagus and can cause choke. <P> the Digestive System. Looking at the horse anatomy of the digestive system, we will start at the top: Mouth and Teeth: The mouth is very important as it is where digestion begins. The teeth harvest the feed, and when the horse is grazing act as the prehensile organ, which means they bring the grass into the mouth. It is one part of the horse anatomy that makes the digestive tract of the horse so delicate. Small Intestine: After the stomach comes the small intestine, where almost all absorption of nutrients occurs. <P> The horse is a non-ruminant herbivore. Non-ruminant means that horses do not have multi-compartmented stomachs as cattle do. Instead, the horse has a simple stomach that works much like a human’s. Herbivore means that horses live on a diet of plant material. The esophagus is around 1.5m in length in a mature horse. As the esophagus is quite long and the horse has very little reflux capacity, incorrectly chewed are large pieces of feed such as carrots etc can lodge inside the horse’s esophagus and can cause choke. | Functions as the conduit for food and liquids that have been swallowed into the pharynx to reach the stomach. |
how long do you need to work to collect unemployment | <P> In Illinois, you have to work for your employer for 30 days in order for that employer to be chargeable for unemployment benefits in the event you become unemployed. Regular unemployment benefits: If you meet the eligibility requirements of the law, you will have some income while you are looking for a job, up to a maximum of 26 full weeks … in a one-year period. <P> 124 including my days off. I work in illinois. : Your benefits are determined by how much wages you earned and not by how long you worked. Your weekly benefit amount is determined by the total wages paid to you by each of your employers during your base period. Whether you are eligible for unemployment benefits depends if you earned enough work credits/wages. It does not depend on how long you worked. Since you have applied, you need to wait to see what unemployment office decides. Phillips Esq., Attorney-at-Law. <P> Reasons for Unemployment. You must be out of work through no fault of your own to qualify for unemployment benefits. Layoffs. If you are laid off, lose your job in a reduction-in-force (RIF), or get downsized for economic reasons, you will meet this requirement. Eligibility for Unemployment in Florida.

While unemployment benefits may cover up to 50% of your earned wages, most states also have established a cap on how much you can receive. Meaning, if 50% of your wages is an amount over the maximum benefits, then you will not receive 50%. Therefore, the question is not only about how long you have to work to be eligible to receive unemployment, but it is also about how much you have to of earn during that time to qualify for unemployment…. <P> Base Amount. Most states require you to earn at least a base amount in one of the last four quarters, and to earn one and a half times that amount in all. For example, if you must earn at least $700 in one quarter, you also must earn at least $1,750 in total to qualify for unemployment. State laws vary on the maximum amount of time you can receive benefits. In many states, you may receive benefits for between 72 and 79 weeks. Each state has slightly different rules about who qualifies for unemployment. Most states require you to have worked for one employer for at least two of the last four quarters. Some states, such as New Jersey, require you to have worked for one employer for 20 weeks out of the last 52. <P> You must work for a certain period of time before you can receive unemployment so that employees who have paid in to the unemployment system with their time can reap the benefits while those who have not put in the time do not get benefits.

(1) The vaccine contains a weakened live strain of Mycobacterium bovis, which is present in cows and shares a common ancestor with the human tubercule bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis (2). Similar to other vaccines, BCG triggers the formation of antibodies from the harmless strain of Myobacterium bovis to help prevent tuberculosis (Figure 1)(1). The efficacy of BCG vaccine varies from 0-80% depending on age, the type of BCG vaccine, and the population (1). <P> BCG tuberculosis (TB) vaccine. The BCG vaccine protects against tuberculosis, which is also known as TB. TB is a serious infection which affects the lungs and sometimes other parts of the body such as the bones, joints and kidneys. It can also cause meningitis. Read more about tuberculosis (TB). The BCG vaccine is made from a weakened form of a bacterium closely related to human TB. Because the bacterium is weak, the vaccine does not cause any disease but it still triggers the immune system to protect against the disease, giving good immunity to people who receive it. <P> Introduction. BCG, or bacille Calmette-Guerin, is a vaccine for tuberculosis (TB) disease. Many foreign-born persons have been BCG-vaccinated. BCG is used in many countries with a high prevalence of TB to prevent childhood tuberculous meningitis and miliary disease. However, BCG is not generally recommended for use in the United States because of the low risk of infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the variable effectiveness of the vaccine against adult pulmonary TB, and the vaccine’s potential interference with tuberculin skin test reactivity. <P> BCG is a vaccine used to prevent tuberculosis (TB), but it’s also an effective treatment for some non-invasive bladder cancers. It’s given directly into the bladder (intravesical). BCG is a type of immunotherapy drug and doctors aren’t sure exactly how it works in bladder cancer. It may make the bladder react in a way that triggers the immune system (helps fight infection and disease) to get rid of cancer cells. <P> BCG VACCINES. BCG vaccines are live vaccines derived from a strain of Mycobacterium bovis that was attenuated by Calmette and Guerin at the Pasteur Institute in Lille, France (29). BCG was first administered to humans in 1921. Many different BCG vaccines are available worldwide. <P> The live attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis known as bacillus Calmette-Guerin (GUéRIN) bcg uses shared antigens to stimulate the development of-cross immunity To mycobacterium tuberculosis And mycobacterium. leprae BCG vaccine contains a live attenuated strain derived from M. bovis. Studies of the effectiveness of BCG vaccine range from no protection to 70-80% protection. However, the vaccine is 70-80% effective against the most severe forms of the disease, such as TB meningitis in children. | The vaccine contains a weakened live strain of Mycobacterium bovis, which is present in cows and shares a common ancestor with the human tubercule bacillus Mycobacterium tuberculosis. |

Brown can be made by mixing red and black; red and white make pink. <P> Sandpaintings, also called dry paintings, are called places where the gods come and go in the Navajo language. They are used in curing ceremonies in which the gods' help is requested for harvests and healing. The figures in sand paintings are symbolic representations of a story in Navajo mythology. <P> Colors used in the Navajo Sand Paintings are usually symbolic of direction; as a general rule white is east, yellow is west, black (a male color) is north and blue (female) is south; red represents sunshine. In the sandpainting of southwestern Native Americans (the most famous of which are the Navajo), the Medicine Man (or Hataa‚hataå) ii paints loosely upon the ground of a, hogan where the ceremony takes, place or on a buckskin or cloth, tarpaulin by letting the colored sands flow through his fingers with control and. skill <P> 1.

how long to boil rock lobster tails | <P> 1 Bring the water to the boil and drop the lobster tails into the pan. 2 Boil the tails for about 1 minute per oz of total weight. 3 If there are 5 oz of lobster tails, you will need to cook them for 5 minutes. 4 Drain the lobster tails and serve hot with melted butter, lemon juice or mayonnaise. 1 Boil the tails for about 1 minute per oz of total weight. 2 If there are 5 oz of lobster tails, you will need to cook them for 5 minutes. 3 Drain the lobster tails and serve hot with melted butter, lemon juice or mayonnaise. 4 Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of a pan and add salt. 5 Bring the water to the boil <P> Butterfly the tail, brush with butter or olive oil, place tails in a dish, add about 1 cup of water to the dish and in a preheated 400 degree oven bake a 6 to 8oz lobster tail for 8 to 10 minutes. Bring to a boil, drop the thawed lobster tails in, after the water returns to a boil reduce the heat and begin timing. The rule of thumb is 1 minute per oz of the tail, so a 4-6oz lobster tail will be cooked for 4 to 6 minutes. <P> You can butterfly the tail or split them in half if you have a larger tail. If using a pot to steam bring the water to a boil place lobster in the basket and steam for about 1 minute per oz of lobster. Season your tail with salt and spread butter over it. I really like the electric food steamer, it's fast and easy and almost fool proof by using the instruction booklet that comes with them. Bring to a boil, drop the thawed lobster tails in, after the water returns to a boil reduce the heat and begin timing. The rule of thumb is 1 minute per oz of the tail, so a 4-6oz lobster tail will be cooked for 4 to 6 minutes. <P> 5. Slightly before the tails are done cooking, cook under the broiler for 1 or 2 minutes (optional). Put a pat of butter on each tail, place at least 6 inches (15.2 cm) underneath the broiler, and cook, keeping a close eye on each lobster tail. Cook for about 1 minute per ounce of tail meat. For example, 10 oz. of tail meat needs to cook for 10 minutes. If you are cooking with 4 tails that each weigh 10 oz., don't cook the tails for 40 minutes; cook for 10 minutes! <P> Step 2: Prepping and Cooking Lobster Tails. If the lobster tails are frozen, thaw them in the refrigerator. Be sure to plan ahead, as this takes 8 to 10 hours. Uncooked tails have a mottled appearance with a green-blue-brown cast. To cook four 8-ounce tails, bring 6 cups salted water to boiling in a 3-quart saucepan. Add the lobster tails. Simmer, uncovered, for 8 to 12 minutes or until shells turn bright red and the meat is tender when poked with a fork. For larger or smaller tails, adjust the cooking time as needed. Drain in a colander. <P> 1 Whisk in salt, paprika, white pepper, and garlic powder. 2 Split lobster tails lengthwise with a large knife, and brush flesh side of tail with marinade. 3 Lightly oil grill grate. 4 Place tails, flesh side down, on preheated grill. 5 Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning once, and basting frequently with marinade. 1 Split lobster tails lengthwise with a large knife, and brush flesh side of tail with marinade. 2 Lightly oil grill grate. 3 Place tails, flesh side down, on preheated grill. 4 Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning once, and basting frequently with marinade. 5 Discard any remaining marinade. <P> Preparation.

which vitamin is primarily responsible for blood clotting | <P> Vitamin A interferes with absorption of vitamin K, and large doses of vitamin E decrease vitamin K–dependent clotting factors, thus promoting bleeding. Toxicity from food is rare, because the body excretes vitamin K much more rapidly than other fat-soluble vitamins. Toxicity. High doses of vitamin K can reduce the effectiveness of anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin (Coumadin), which is used to prevent blood clotting. People taking these drugs should maintain a consistent daily intake of vitamin K. Megadose supplements of vitamin A and E can pose a risk to vitamin-K status. <P> Plasma also contains blood clotting factors, sugars, lipids, vitamins, minerals, hormones, enzymes, antibodies, and other proteins. It is likely that plasma contains some of every protein produced by the body--approximately 500 have been identified in human plasma so far. <P> Photo Credit Image Source/Photodisc/Getty Images. Vitamin K refers to a group of fat-soluble vitamins that play a crucial role in blood clotting. They act as a co-factor for seven vitamin K-dependent clotting factors, because without vitamin K, your blood is unable to clot. You get vitamin K from a variety of foods in your diet. Rich sources include liver, turnip greens, broccoli, kale, cabbage and asparagus. Vitamin K causes the blood to coagulate, thereby reducing the risk of bleeding. This effect may interact with certain medications. Some individuals are at risk of developing dangerous blood clots, which can lead to heart attack or stroke. If this is the case, your doctor may prescribe a blood thinner. If you are prescribed a blood thinner, avoid taking vitamin-K supplements. You may also need to avoid vitamin K-rich foods. <P> Vitamin K is essential for blood clotting. Vitamin K modifies certain proteins that are required for blood coagulation. The modification of the proteins allows them to bin … d calcium ions. 1 Egg Vitamins and Nutrition Eggs are economical and highly nutritious. 2 Eggs have vitamins and minerals that help to get you started in the morning. Calcium is a very important vitamin involved in blood clotting because calcium ions are used in the thrombin. The thrombin is a product of prothrombin, calcium ions and thromb … oplastin. When thrombin is added with fibrinogen (which is inactive) it creates fibrin, which forms the clot. 1 person found this useful. <P> Vitamin A. Vitamin A was the first fat-soluble vitamin identified (in 1913). Vitamin A comprises the preformed retinoids, plus the precursor forms, the provitamin A carotenoids. Preformed retinoids is a collective term for retinol, retinal, and retinoic acid, all of which are biologically active. Toxicity. High doses of vitamin K can reduce the effectiveness of anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin (Coumadin), which is used to prevent blood clotting. People taking these drugs should maintain a consistent daily intake of vitamin K. Megadose supplements of vitamin A and E can pose a risk to vitamin-K status. <P> Vitamin K helps in the activation of seven blood-clotting-factor proteins that participate in a series of reactions to form a clot that eventually stops the flow of blood. Vitamin K also participates in the activation of bone proteins, which greatly enhances their calcium-binding properties. Toxicity. High doses of vitamin K can reduce the effectiveness of anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin (Coumadin), which is used to prevent blood clotting. People taking these drugs should maintain a consistent daily intake of vitamin K. Megadose supplements of vitamin A and E can pose a risk to vitamin-K status. <P> The 'K' in vitamin K is derived from the German word koagulation.. Coagulation is the process in which blood forms clots. Vitamin K facilitates the function of several proteins, including those that are responsible for blood clot formation. It plays a vital role in cell growth and in the metabolism of bone and other tissues. Vitamin K and Blood Clot Formation. Blood clots through a process called the 'coagulation cascade'. It's referred to as a cascade as it involves a cascade of enzymes activating each other. Fibrin is formed at the end of the cascade. <P> These anticoagulants block vitamin K function, resulting in decreased formation of clots. It is primarily vitamin K1 that is used when it comes to blood clotting. Vitamin K and Healthy Bones. Vitamin K2 plays an important role in bone formation. It is also involved in the prevention of bone loss. Vitamin K and Blood Clot Formation. Blood clots through a process called the 'coagulation cascade'. It's referred to as a cascade as it involves a cascade of enzymes activating each other. Fibrin is formed at the end of the cascade. | Vitamin K |
why was the kkk established | <P> Introduction. Founded in 1866, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) extended into almost every southern state by 1870 and became a vehicle for white southern resistance to the Republican Party’s Reconstruction-era policies aimed at establishing political and economic equality for blacks. Founding of the Ku Klux Klan. A group including many former Confederate veterans founded the first branch of the Ku Klux Klan as a social club in Pulaski, Tennessee, in 1866. The first two words of the organization’s name supposedly derived from the Greek word “kyklos,” meaning circle. <P> The Ku Klux Klan was formed as a social club by a group of Confederate Army veterans in Pulaski, Tennessee in the winter of 1865-66. The group adopted the name Ku Klux Klan from the Greek word kyklos, meaning circle, and the English word clan. <P> Six Confederate veterans from Pulaski, Tennessee created the original Ku Klux Klan on December 24, 1865, during the Reconstruction of the South after the Civil War. The name was formed by combining the Greek kyklos (κύκλος, circle) with clan. The group was known for a short time as the Kuklux Clan. The first Ku Klux Klan flourished in the Southern United States in the late 1860s, then died out by the early 1870s. Members made their own, often colorful, costumes: robes, masks, and conical hats, designed to be terrifying, and to hide their identities. <P> Latest Updates. Ku Klux Klan-History Birth of the Klan Six college students founded the Ku Klux Klan between December 1865 and the summer of 1866 in the town of Pulaski, Tennessee. <P> For all intents and purposes, the KKK was a Christian terrorist organization. The first Klan was founded in 1865 by veterans of the Confederate Army. Its purpose was to restore white supremacy in the aftermath of the American Civil War. The Klan resisted Reconstruction by intimidating carpetbaggers, scalawags, and freedmen. Originally, the KKK was formed as a resistance group to the Union occupation of the south and the often oppressive policies of reconstruction. The KKK did not originally form … as a racist organization (though many were). <P> The second Ku Klux Klan was founded in 1915 by William J. Simmons, an ex-minister and promoter of fraternal orders; its first meeting was held on Stone Mt., Ga. <P> Answer The Ku Klux Klan was a racist group against black people. Basicly, they are a group of people who, for some sick reason, believe that black skin is wrong. … Answer The first branch of the Ku Klux Klan was established in Pulaski, Tennessee, in May, 1866. A year later a general organization of local Klan's was established in Nashville in April, 1867. Most of the leaders were former members of the Confederate Army and the first Grand Wizard was Nathan Forrest, an outstanding general during the American Civil War. After white governments had been established in the South the Ku Klux Klan continued to undermine the power of blacks. Successful black business's were attacked and any attempt to form black protection groups such as trade unions was quickly dealt with. <P> In 1915 the film The Birth of a Nation was released, mythologising and glorifying the first Klan and its endeavors. The second Ku Klux Klan was founded in 1915 by William Joseph Simmons at Stone Mountain, outside Atlanta, with fifteen charter members. The first Ku Klux Klan flourished in the Southern United States in the late 1860s, then died out by the early 1870s. Members made their own, often colorful, costumes: robes, masks, and conical hats, designed to be terrifying, and to hide their identities. <P> In outright defiance of the Republican-led federal government, Southern Democrats formed organizations that violently intimidated blacks and Republicans who tried to win political power. The most prominent of these, the Ku Klux Klan, was formed in Pulaski, Tennessee, in 1865. Originally founded as a social club for former Confederate soldiers, the Klan evolved into a terrorist organization. <P> The KKK has a record of terrorism,[2] violence, and lynching to intimidate, murder, and oppress African Americans, Jews and other minorities and to intimidate and oppose Roman Catholics and labor unions. The first Klan was founded in 1865 by veterans of the Confederate Army. Its purpose was to restore white supremacy in the aftermath of the American Civil War.

what are some characteristics of lungs | <P> Lung Cancer. Cancer that forms in tissues of the lung, usually in the cells lining air passages. The two main types are small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. These types are diagnosed based on how the cells look under a microscope. <P> Lungfish are best known for retaining characteristics primitive within the Osteichthyes, including the ability to breathe air, and structures primitive within Sarcopterygii, including the presence of lobed fins with a well-developed internal skeleton. Today, lungfish live only in Africa, South America and Australia. <P> The most common symptoms of lung cancer are: 1 A cough that does not go away or gets worse. 2 Chest pain that is often worse with deep breathing, coughing, or laughing. 3 Hoarseness. 4 Weight loss and loss of appetite. 5 Coughing up blood or rust-colored sputum (spit or phlegm). 6 Shortness of breath. 7 Feeling tired or weak. <P> People who smoke cigarettes are 15 to 30 times more likely to get lung cancer or die from lung cancer than people who do not smoke. Even smoking a few cigarettes a day or smoking occasionally increases the risk of lung cancer. Cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer. In the United States, cigarette smoking is linked to about 90% of lung cancers. Using other tobacco products such as cigars or pipes also increases the risk for lung cancer. Tobacco smoke is a toxic mix of more than 7,000 chemicals <P> The human lungs are a pair of large, spongy organs optimized for gas exchange between our blood and the air. Our bodies require oxygen in order to survive. The lungs provide us with that vital oxygen while also removing carbon dioxide before it can reach hazardous levels. Alveoli are the functional units of the lungs that permit gas exchange between the air in the lungs and the blood in the capillaries of the lungs. Alveoli are found in small clusters called alveolar sacs at the end of the terminal bronchiole. <P> Smoking and lung cancer. By far the biggest cause of lung cancer is smoking. Although some people who have never smoked get lung cancer, smoking causes more than 8 out of 10 cases (86%). The more cigarettes you smoke, the more likely you are to get lung cancer. But the length of time you have been a smoker is also important. Starting smoking at a young age also greatly increases the risk. <P> The tissue of the lungs can be affected by a number of diseases, including pneumonia and lung cancer. Chronic diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and emphysema can be related to smoking or exposure to harmful substances. Diseases such as bronchitis can also affect the respiratory tract. The lobes are further divided into bronchopulmonary segments and lobules. The tissues of the lungs have a unique blood supply, receiving deoxygenated blood sent from the heart for the purposes of receiving oxygen (the pulmonary circulation) and a separate blood supply of oxygenated blood (the bronchial circulation). <P> People who quit smoking have a lower risk of lung cancer than if they had continued to smoke, but their risk is higher than the risk for people who never smoked. Quitting smoking at any age can lower the risk of lung cancer. Cigarette smoking can cause cancer almost anywhere in the body. Cigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer. In the United States, cigarette smoking is linked to about 90% of lung cancers. Using other tobacco products such as cigars or pipes also increases the risk for lung cancer. Tobacco smoke is a toxic mix of more than 7,000 chemicals <P> The lungs are the primary organs of respiration in humans and many other animals. Humans have two lungs, a right lung and a left lung. They are situated within the thoracic cavity of the chest. The right lung is bigger than the left lung, as the left lung shares space in the chest with the heart. The lungs together weigh approximately 1.3 kilograms (2.9 lb), with the right lung weighing more than the left. The lobes are further divided into bronchopulmonary segments and lobules.

what does general agent mean in bail surety | <P> Bail or bond is an amount of money in cash or surety bond for the purpose of making sure that a particular person attends all required court appearances. Bail allows an arrested person (defendant) to be released from jail until his or her case is completed. <P> General Agents. Because so much is at stake in backing a bail bond, it isn t easy for a new bail agent to obtain the support of a surety company. Until a bail agent acquires the experience necessary to establish a relationship with a surety company, he might need to depend on the support of a general agent (GA). <P> A GA is a licensed bail agent who is well established in the business and has a strong relationship with his surety company. The surety company qualifies him as a GA, allowing him to sell bonds to other bail agents. The GA acts as an intermediary for the new agent. The GA screens the new bail agent to be sure he is trustworthy and can handle the responsibility. GAs don t work only with new agents. <P> A surety bail bond agent is a person who is licensed by the Ohio Department of Insurance to sell surety bonds and is authorized to conduct business in the State of Ohio. They are an agent for an insurance company that sells surety bonds. A surety bond is an agreement made between one or more persons and a bond agent where the bond agent agrees to post the necessary bail so that a defendant can be released from jail. <P> A bail bond is an insurance product that guarantees the appearance of a defendant in court. It involves an legal agreement between the bail agent, insurance company, indemnitor and court that the defendant will show up for all court appearances or be liable for the full amount of the bond to the court. <P> A surety bond is an agreement made between a person and a bondsman. The bondsman agrees to post the necessary bond so the defendant can be released from jail. This agreement is backed by an insurance company contract signed by the person and the bondsman on behalf of the insurance company. <P> Bail or bond (in this case, bail and bond mean the same thing) is an amount of money in cash, property, or surety bond for the purpose of making sure that a person attends all required court appearances.

what are polymers made from | <P> Polymers are molecules that consist of a long, repeating chain of smaller units called monomers. They have the highest molecular weight among any molecules, and may consist of billions of atoms. Human DNA is a polymer with over 20 billion constituent atoms. Proteins, made up of amino acids, and many other molecules that make up life are polymers. They are the largest and most diverse class of known molecules and even include plastics. <P> Making the world better, one answer at a time. A polymer (a chemical term) is any material that is made up of repeating linked units (monomers). An example of a polymer is starch. It is made from linked units of Glucose (a sugar). Another example is plastics such as low density polyethylene made from linking repeating ethylene (a gas) units. Maybe a more familar example that is used around the house is when you repair your car with fiberglass. <P> The properties of anything made out of polymers really reflect what's going on at the ultra-tiny (molecular) level. So, things that are made of polymers look, feel, and act depending on how their atoms and molecules are connected, as well as which ones we use to begin with! Well, usually a single polymer molecule is made out of hundreds of thousands (or even millions!) of monomers! Wow! That's a lot! By the way, we use the special name of monomer because not all molecules can form polymers. <P> This is PAUL LEMUR. He's a lemur named Paul. Polymers are made up of many many molecules all strung together to form really long chains (and sometimes more complicated structures, too). What makes polymers so fun is that how they act depends on what kinds of molecules they're made up of and how they're put together. Well, usually a single polymer molecule is made out of hundreds of thousands (or even millions!) of monomers! Wow! That's a lot! By the way, we use the special name of monomer because not all molecules can form polymers. <P> If all atoms in the monomers are incorporated into the polymer, the polymer is called an addition polymer. If some of the atoms of the monomers are released into small molecules, such as water, the polymer is called a condensation polymer. The materials commonly called plastics are all synthetic polymers. Polymers are formed by chemical reactions in which a large number of molecules called monomers are joined sequentially, forming a chain. In many polymers, only one monomer is used. In others, two or three different monomers may be combined. <P> Polymers are substances containing a large number of structural units joined by the same type of linkage. These substances often form into a chain-like structure. Polymers in the natural world have been around since the beginning of time. Starch, cellulose, and rubber all possess polymeric properties. Man-made polymers have been studied since 1832. Today, the polymer industry has grown to be larger than the aluminum, copper and steel industries combined. <P> Condensation polymers are made from monomers that have two different groups of atoms which can join together to form, for example, ester or amide links. Polyesters are an important class of commercial polymers, as are polyamides (nylon). The materials commonly called plastics are all synthetic polymers. Polymers are formed by chemical reactions in which a large number of molecules called monomers are joined sequentially, forming a chain. In many polymers, only one monomer is used. In others, two or three different monomers may be combined. <P> Synthetic Polymers. Man-made polymers are called Synthetic Polymers. These polymers are different from organic polymers, because they are made of different elements along their backbone structure. Examples of man-made polymers are spandex(above), polyester, and nylon. Nylon is often found in carpeting, and spandex is used as clothes. <P> A polymer (/ˈpɒlɨmər/) (Greek poly- , many + -mer, parts) is a large molecule, or macromolecule, composed of many repeated subunits. | Polymers are formed by chemical reactions in which a large number of molecules called monomers are joined sequentially, forming a chain. |
what do peacocks do | <P> Peacock (Peafowl) foods include grains, insects, small reptiles, small mammals, berries, drupes, wild figs, and some cultivated crops. Peafowl are omnivorous and eat most plan … t parts, flower petals, seed heads, insects and other arthropods, reptiles, and amphibians. Peacocks eat ticks, termites, ants, locusts, mice, plant parts, flower petals, seed heads, scorpions, other arthropods, reptiles, and amphibians. Insects, nuts, seeds, small vertabrates like lizards, fruits. <P> Male peacocks are known as peacocks and female peacocks are known as peahens (in a similar way to chickens and pheasants). The male is peacock is generally about twice the size of the female peahen, and even larger when the male peacock is displaying his plumage (feathers). When the male peacock does not have his brightly coloured and very elaborate tail feathers on display, they drag behind him. This is known as a tail or a train. During the mating season, the male peacock may mate with up to six different female peahens. <P> Best Answer: Peacocks, like other ground birds in their family which include Pheasants, Grouse, Quail, wild Turkeys and Chickens, feed on seeds, nuts, and grain that they find on the ground, and any insect they can catch. A good food for you to feed the Peacocks would be a good quality Chicken feed. Something with corn, and wheat, and barley, and other goodies in it. In my book, the most beautiful bird on the planet is the Peacock. These truly magnificent birds were originally from Asia where they roam wild in the tropical forests. <P> Impressive plumage often indicates a healthy bird. Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images. Peacocks are male peafowl, a type of pheasant that also includes the female peahen. No matter the species of peacock, these colorful creatures boast impressively sized and patterned plumage that they fan out for display purposes. <P> Peafowl (Pavo cristatus) are beautiful birds that are native to Southeast Asia. The male peafowl is called a peacock; the female peafowl is called a peahen. In the wild, they live in deciduous tropical rainforests. Peacocks do not migrate. A group of peafowl is called a muster. Anatomy: The male peafowl, the peacock, is about 7 feet long with a full train. The female, the peahen, is about 3 feet long. <P> Peacock video. 1 Peacocks are large, colorful pheasants (typically blue and green) known for their iridescent tails. 2 These tail feathers, or coverts, spread out in a distinctive train that is more than 60 percent of the bird’s total body length and boast colorful eye markings of blue, gold, red, and other hues. 1 Peacocks are large, colorful pheasants (typically blue and green) known for their iridescent tails. 2 These tail feathers, or coverts, spread out in a distinctive train that is more than 60 percent of the bird’s total body length and boast colorful eye markings of blue, gold, red, and other hues. <P> Peacocks are large, colorful pheasants (typically blue and green) known for their iridescent tails.

what is a chemical bond in science | <P> Chemical bonding between atoms results in compounds that can be very different from the parent atoms. This module, the second in a series on chemical reactions, describes how atoms gain, lose, or share electrons to form ionic or covalent bonds. The module lists features of ionic and covalent compounds. The H 2 molecule is a good example of the first type of covalent bond, the nonpolar bond. Because both atoms in the H 2 molecule have an equal attraction (or affinity) for electrons, the bonding electrons are equally shared by the two atoms, and a nonpolar covalent bond is formed. <P> a chemical bond. The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are: Covalent bond: bond in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Ionic bond: bond in which one or more electrons from one atom are removed and attached to another atom, resulting in positive and negative ions which attract each other. Other types of bonds include metallic bonds and hydrogen bonding <P> Main Types of Chemical Bonds. The two main types of bonds formed between atoms are ionic bonds and covalent bonds. An ionic bond is formed when one atom accepts or donates one or more of its valence electrons to another atom. A covalent bond is formed when atoms share valence electrons. The electrons that participate in chemical bonds are the valence electrons, which are the electrons found in an atom's outermost shell. When two atoms approach each other these outer electrons interact. Electrons repel each other, yet they are attracted to the protons within atoms. <P> Chemical bonds. Chemical bonds are the glue that hold molecules together. We will learn about the different kinds of bonds, ways chemists draw bonds and molecules, and how the type of chemical bonding affects the bulk properties of a material. <P> attraction, attractive force-the force by which one object attracts another. covalent bond-a chemical bond that involves sharing a pair of electrons between atoms in a molecule. cross-link, cross-linkage-a side bond that links two adjacent chains of atoms in a complex molecule. electrostatic bond, electrovalent bond, ionic bond-a chemical bond in which one atom loses an electron to form a positive ion and the other atom gains an electron to form a negative ion. <P> Chemical Bonding. Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms. The bound state implies a net attractive force between the atoms ... The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are: Covalent bond: bond in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Ionic bond: bond in which one or more electrons from one atom are removed and attached to another atom, resulting in positive and negative ions which attract each other. <P> A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances that contain two or more atoms. The bond is caused by the electrostatic force of attraction between opposite charges, either between electrons and nuclei, or as the result of a dipole attraction. A strong chemical bond is formed from the transfer or sharing of electrons between atomic centers and relies on the electrostatic attraction between the protons in nuclei and the electrons in the orbitals. The types of strong bond differ due to the difference in electronegativity of the constituent elements. <P> A chemical bond is formed when atoms are held together by attractive forces. This attraction occurs when electrons are shared between atoms, or when electrons are exchanged between the atoms that are involved in the bond. Definition 1: A chemical bond is the physical process that causes atoms and molecules to be attracted to each other and held together in more stable chemical compounds. The type of bond that is formed depends on the elements that are involved. <P> hydrogen bond-a chemical bond consisting of a hydrogen atom between two electronegative atoms (e.g., oxygen or nitrogen) with one side be a covalent bond and the other being an ionic bond. electrostatic bond, electrovalent bond, ionic bond-a chemical bond in which one atom loses an electron to form a positive ion and the other atom gains an electron to form a negative ion. <P> Covalent bonds form when two atoms have a very small (nearly insignificant) difference in electronegativity. The value of difference in electronegativity between two atoms in a covalent bond is less than 1.7. Covalent bonds often form between similar atoms, nonmetal to nonmetal or metal to metal. Covalent bonding signals a complete sharing of electrons. | It is the physical process that causes atoms and molecules to be attracted to each other and held together in more stable chemical compounds. |
what does disease do to plants | <P> Wenbo Ma, an assistant professor of plant pathology and microbiology, examines soybean plants in the lab. Credit: UCR Strategic Communications. How exactly bacterial pathogens cause diseases in plants remains a mystery and continues to frustrate scientists working to solve this problem. Understanding plants' overactive immune system will help researchers build better crops. A plant's immune system protects the plant from harmful pathogens. If the system overreacts to pathogens, it can stunt plant growth and reduce seed production. Now, University of Missouri researchers have identified important ... <P> Information About Plant Diseases. Identifying plant diseases is the first step in treating the problem. There are many types of diseases that affect garden plants, leaving many gardeners scratching their heads. By using the following information, you can learn how to go about identifying plant diseases for effective disease control. <P> Organisms that cause infectious disease include fungi, oomycetes, bacteria, viruses, viroids, virus-like organisms, phytoplasmas, protozoa, nematodes and parasitic plants. Not included are ectoparasites like insects, mites, vertebrate, or other pests that affect plant health by consumption of plant tissues. Across large regions and many crop species, it is estimated that diseases typically reduce plant yields by 10% every year in more developed settings, but yield loss to diseases often exceeds 20% in less developed settings. <P> A plant disease is usually defined as abnormal growth and/or dysfunction of a plant. Diseases are the result of some disturbance in the normal life process of the plant. Diseases may be the result of living and/or non-living causes. Biotic diseases are caused by living organisms such as fungi, bacteria, and viruses. Even though a plant has symptoms on a specific part, it does not necessarily mean the damaged tissue contains the organism causing the symptoms. For example, a root rot can cause chlorosis and wilting of stems and leaves, BUT the disease causal organism is in the roots. <P> You don’t add compost and suddenly see a plant get better. Compost does not eliminate diseases organisms or stop infections from occurring. However, compost does change the microbe environment in the soil and this change will affect the number and type of microbes in the soil. This can influence the interaction of microbes and their ability to infect plants. A suppressive soil is a soil where a known existing disease organism does not seem to affect the plants. The disease is present in the soil, but for some reason it is suppressed—it does not infect the plants. Scientists are starting to understand these systems. <P> Most bacteria that are associated with plants are actually saprotrophic, and do no harm to the plant itself. However, a small number, around 100 known species, are able to cause disease. Bacterial diseases are much more prevalent in sub-tropical and tropical regions of the world. Across large regions and many crop species, it is estimated that diseases typically reduce plant yields by 10% every year in more developed settings, but yield loss to diseases often exceeds 20% in less developed settings. <P> Plant Diseases. Disease fungi take their energy from the plants on which they live. They are responsible for a great deal of damage and are characterized by wilting, scabs, moldy coatings, rusts, blotches and rotted tissue. <P> Most plant diseases are caused by fungi, bacteria, and viruses. Although the term disease is usually used only for the destruction of live plants, the action of dry rot and the rotting of harvested crops in storage or transport is similar to the rots of growing plants; both are caused by bacteria and fungi. Plant diseases are more often classified by their symptoms than by the agent of disease, because the discovery of microscopic agents such as bacteria dates only from the 19th cent. <P> Disease control is achieved by use of plants that have been bred for good resistance to many diseases, and by plant cultivation approaches such as crop rotation, use of pathogen-free seed, appropriate planting date and plant density, control of field moisture, and pesticide use. Across large regions and many crop species, it is estimated that diseases typically reduce plant yields by 10% every year in more developed settings, but yield loss to diseases often exceeds 20% in less developed settings. <P> Plant viruses are viruses that affect plants. Like all other viruses, plant viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that do not have the molecular machinery to replicate without a host. Plant viruses are pathogenic to higher plants. While this article does not intend to list all plant viruses, it discusses some important viruses as well as their uses in plant molecular biology. The discovery of plant viruses causing disease is often accredited to A. Mayer (1886) working in the Netherlands demonstrated that the sap of mosaic obtained from tobacco leaves developed mosaic symptom when injected in healthy plants. | Most plant diseases are caused by fungi, bacteria, and viruses. Although the term disease is usually used only for the destruction of live plants, the action of dry rot and the rotting of harvested crops in storage or transport is similar to the rots of growing plants; both are caused by bacteria and fungi. |
catabolic definition ap biology | <P> (Science: biochemistry) Of or pertaining to catabolism; as, catabolic processes, which give rise to substances (catastates) of decreasing complexity and increasing stability. Please contribute to this project, if you have more information about this term feel free to edit this page. <P> The enzymes present in an organism depend on the genes present in the organism. Catabolism refers to chemical reactions that result in the breakdown of more complex organic molecules into simpler substances. Catabolic reactions usually release energy that is used to drive chemical reactions. Anabolism refers to chemical reactions in which simpler substances are combined to form more complex molecules. Anabolic reactions usually require energy. Anabolic reactions build new molecules and/or store energy. The energy of catabolic reactions is used to drive anabolic reactions. <P> ATP not only provides energy to your cells, it also allows anabolic processes to occur. Anabolism is the reverse of catabolism, since these reactions build large biomolecules from smaller ones. And the molecules that are produced are the same types as what you find in food, such as carbohydrates and proteins. In a sense, these molecules are like your body's own version of the food it originally came from. They take smaller molecules that were broken down during catabolism and use them to build new, stronger material in your body. These two forms of metabolism work together to create a balance in your body. In healthy muscle tissue, muscle breakdown (catabolism) is equal to muscle building (anabolism). <P> We can think of metabolism in two separate forms: catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism involves all of the metabolic processes that tear down biomolecules, while anabolism is all of the metabolic processes that build biomolecules. They take smaller molecules that were broken down during catabolism and use them to build new, stronger material in your body. These two forms of metabolism work together to create a balance in your body. In healthy muscle tissue, muscle breakdown (catabolism) is equal to muscle building (anabolism). <P> Define the two catabolic pathways: Fermentation – a partial degradation of sugars that occurs without the use of oxygen. Cellular respiration – when oxygen is consumed as a reactant along with the organic fuel; most efficient catabolic pathway; mitochondria house most of the metabolic equipment needed. Use the following terms correctly in a sentence: redox reactions, oxidation, reduction, reducing agent and oxidizing agent. In redox reactions, oxidation (the loss of electrons from one substance) and reduction (the addition of electrons to another substance) occur. <P> Chapter 8 Guided Reading Assignment. Contrast the catabolic and anabolic pathways. Define the following terms: these terms and concepts are critical – they would be “great” quiz words. <P> it is an enzyme that can synthesize ATP from ADP by using a form of energy. It is important because it is linked to the ETS through the proton-motive force which allows protons back into the mitochondria. <P> Catabolic and Anabolic Reactions. The sum of all chemical reactions within a living organism is known as metabolism. Metabolic pathways are a series of chemical reactions in which the product of one reaction is the substrate for the next reaction. Anabolism refers to chemical reactions in which simpler substances are combined to form more complex molecules. Anabolic reactions usually require energy. Anabolic reactions build new molecules and/or store energy. The energy of catabolic reactions is used to drive anabolic reactions. <P> Definition. noun. (1) The process involving a series of degradative chemical reactions that break down complex molecules into smaller units, usually releasing energy in the process. (2) A destructive type of metabolism. Supplement | The process involving a series of degradative chemical reactions that break down complex molecules into smaller units, usually releasing energy in the process. |

what is a pork loin roast | <P> Loin Roast Basics. The loin roast comes from the area of the pig between the shoulder and the beginning of the leg It is sold either bone-in or deboned. Loin roast can be rolled and tied with string. Loin roasts with a bone tend to be juicier and more flavorful, but the bone can make carving a bit tricky. Loin roast is sometimes confused with tenderloin. Despite the name similarity, they are not one in the same. A loin roast is typically sold in pieces weighing between two to four pounds (the tenderloin is a smaller, long cut that usually weighs about a pound).

how long does your hair have to be to get dreads | <P> As long as you have some hair, you can get dreads. I say you should wait till your hair grow longer so you can get the long ones like T-Pain. I love T-Pain. <P> Fine hair will only break if you try to turn it into dreads. The best hair-type for dreadlocks is coarse. The thicker diameter of coarse hairs helps to resist breakage. Keep in mind that with dreads, you still have to shampoo ... and each time you do, your fine hair will be stretching and breaking. *Sombra* · 7 years ago. Report Abuse. You need at least 3 inches for the backcombing method (fastest and best-looking dreads come from this method), so you're going to have to wait until your hair grows at least one more inch. <P> Next comes the backcombing part. This part is where the extra helpers come in so handy. Depending on your hair length you will spend between 4-15 minutes on each dread, multiply that by about 30 for larger dreads, or 100 for small dreads and that’s how long it will take you to make dreads. Yeah, go make some more friends so they can help. <P> 1. Your hair needs to be at least 8 cm's. The longer your hair is, the easier it will be to dread and quicker it will mature so if your hair is on the shorter side they may just need a little more maintenance before they really start to lock and tighten. Top. <P> Best Answer: Your hair seems long enough, that is if you want mini dreads. I'm pretty sure if you get dreads now it will hold because I see many people with short hair who have dreads.

To lengthen dreads, whether you have already had them for a long time or only for a few weeks, synthetic or real hair is attached to the already existing dreads. | 4-15 minutes |
different type of blood cells | <P> Different Types of Blood Cells and Their Roles in the Human Body Blood is a mixture of two things: cells and plasma. The heart pumps blood through the arteries, capillaries and veins to provide oxygen and nutrients to every cell of the body. The blood also carries away waste products. This group of cells has the potential to form any of the different types of blood cells and also to reproduce itself. This cell then forms committed stem cells that will form specific types of blood cells. Red blood cells (RBCs), also known as erythrocytes, are by far the most abundant cells in the blood. <P> Whole blood consists of 3 types of blood cells, suspended in a liquid called plasma. Blood circulates through the arteries and veins with each of the blood cell types -- red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets -- performing different functions throughout the body. White Blood Cells. White blood cells, also called leukocytes, are much fewer in number than red blood cells. There are 5 different types of white blood cells that work together to protect the body by attacking foreign invaders, including bacteria, viruses and tumors. The most common type of white blood cells are called neutrophils <P> The process by which the body produces blood is called hematopoiesis. All blood cells (RBCs, WBCs and platelets) come from the same type of cell, called the pluripotential hematopoietic stem cell. This group of cells has the potential to form any of the different types of blood cells and also to reproduce itself. This cell then forms committed stem cells that will form specific types of blood cells. Red blood cells (RBCs), also known as erythrocytes, are by far the most abundant cells in the blood. <P> White blood cells protect the body from infection. They are much fewer in number than red blood cells, accounting for about 1 percent of your blood. The most common type of white blood cell is the neutrophil, which is the immediate response cell and accounts for 55 to 70 percent of the total white blood cell count. <P> 2. Blood Cells. From transporting oxygen throughout the body to fighting infection, cells of the blood are vital to life. The three major types of cells in the blood are red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Red blood cells determine blood type and are also responsible for transporting oxygen to cells. White blood cells are immune system cells that destroy pathogens and provide immunity. <P> Types of Blood cells. They are broadly of 3 types of blood cells like. 1. Red blood cells (R.B.C) / Red blood corposcules. 2. White blood cells. 3. Platelets/ thrombocytes. Red blood cells: These are cells responsible for reddish color of the blood. They are very high in concentration to other b <P> Red Blood Cell Transfusions. Red blood cells are the most commonly transfused part of the blood. These cells carry oxygen from the lungs to your body's organs and tissues. They also help your body get rid of carbon dioxide and other waste products. You may need a transfusion of red blood cells if you've lost blood due to an injury or surgery. <P> Platelets, or thrombocytes or yellow blood cells, are very small, irregularly shaped clear cell fragments (i.e. cells that do not have a nucleus containing DNA), 2–3 µm in diameter, which derive from fragmentation of precursor megakaryocytes. The average lifespan of a platelet is normally just 5 to 9 days. <P> Red blood cells transport oxygen. Every second, 2-3 million RBCs are produced in the bone marrow and released into the circulation. Also known as erythrocytes, RBCs are the most common type of cell found in the blood, with each cubic millimeter of blood containing 4-6 million cells. | 1. Red blood cells 2. White blood cells. 3.

why do my knee joints hurt | <P> Inflammation in the structures around your joint – Inflammation may occur: 1 in a bursa, which normally allows your muscles and tendons to run smoothly over your joints – this often happens in your shoulder and hip joints. 2 in the ligaments that hold your joints together – this frequently happens around your knee joint. 1 <P> Even short-term pain and swelling in the joints can affect your quality of life. Whatever the cause of joint pain, you can usually manage it with medication, physical therapy, or alternative treatments. Your doctor will first try to diagnose and treat the condition that is causing your joint pain. Knee pain was the most common complaint, followed by shoulder and hip pain, but joint pain can affect any part of your body, from your ankles and feet to your shoulders and hands. As you get older, painful joints become increasingly more common. <P> Other conditions that cause knee pain include: 1 Bursitis. 2 A bursa is a sac of fluid that resides below the skin overlying your joints. 3 Overuse, a fall, or repeated bending and kneeling can irritate the bursa overlying the knee cap (patella), causing pain and swelling. 1 In this condition, the kneecap slides out of position, causing knee pain and swelling. 2 Patellofemoral pain syndrome. 3 This condition often results from issues associated with muscle imbalance, tightness, and alignment of the legs, rather than an injury. <P> Some of the most common reasons for knee pain are sprained ligaments, meniscus (cartilage) tears, tendonitis, and runner's knee.

Pain is also a feature of joint inflammation (arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis) and infection, and extremely rarely it can be a cause of cancer of the joint. Pain within the joint is a common cause of shoulder pain, ankle pain, and knee pain. Joint pain is also referred to as arthralgia. The sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) chlamydia and gonorrhea can lead to joint pain. Symptoms and signs associated with joint pain can include. 1 joint redness, 2 joint swelling, 3 joint tenderness, 4 joint warmth, 5 limping, 6 locking of the joint, 7 loss of range of motion of the joint, 8 stiffness, 9 weakness <P> Introduction. Sudden pain in one of the knees is usually the result of overusing the knee or injuring it. In many cases, you don't need to see your GP. The knee joint is particularly vulnerable to damage and pain because it takes the full weight of your body and any extra force when you run or jump. Torn ligament or tendon. Knee pain may be caused by torn ligaments or tendons. Ligaments are tough bands of tissue that connect the bones at the knee joint; tendons connect the muscles to the bone. You can tear these tissues during running sports such as rugby or football. <P> Your knee hurts and you want to know why. Whether it's an injury or arthritis, here are answers from Joseph Bosco, MD. He's an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in sports medicine and knee care at the NYU Langone Medical Center's Hospital for Joint Diseases. 1 In this condition, the kneecap slides out of position, causing knee pain and swelling. 2 Patellofemoral pain syndrome. 3 This condition often results from issues associated with muscle imbalance, tightness, and alignment of the legs, rather than an injury. <P> 1 The iliotibial band is a piece of tough tissue that runs from your hip down to the outer part of your knee. 2 If it's irritated by overuse or other problems, it can become inflamed and cause pain on the outer side of the knee. 1 In this condition, the kneecap slides out of position, causing knee pain and swelling. 2 Patellofemoral pain syndrome. 3 This condition often results from issues associated with muscle imbalance, tightness, and alignment of the legs, rather than an injury. <P> They provide support and help you move. Any damage to the joints from disease or injury can interfere with your movement and cause a lot of pain. Many different conditions can lead to painful joints, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bursitis, gout, strains, sprains, and other injuries. Joint pain is extremely common. Knee pain was the most common complaint, followed by shoulder and hip pain, but joint pain can affect any part of your body, from your ankles and feet to your shoulders and hands. As you get older, painful joints become increasingly more common. | Keen pain occurs when the kneecap slides out of position, which is associated with muscle imbalance, tightness, and alignment of the legs. |
average cost to move an office | <P> Without any hardware upgrades or last-minute coordination, the average IT portion of an office move will cost a 30-person small business from $5,000 to $10,000. After serving the small business community in the DC Metro area for over two decades (and after being a small business for just as long), you can imagine that we’ve been through more than a few office moves in our day. Across the board, one thing is certain: office moves are, put very bluntly, a pain in the neck. <P> Average Cost of Moving Employees Its costs more to relocate homeowners and current employees than it does for renters and new hires. It costs an average of $97,166 to relocate current employees who are also homeowners, but just $72,627 for new hires that own homes. Both are big numbers, but current employees have earned their expense. As far as renting is concerned, it costs $24,216 to relocate current employees, and $19,309 for new hires. <P> Moving day is only a small part of a business relocation. Comstock Images/Comstock/Getty Images. Many of the costs associated with relocating an office occur before and after moving day. Some of the costs will come in the form of labor to make internal and external changes and announcements. Some of the expenses will cover physical items and consulting fees as you prepare to shut down your old office and configure new space. Take into account the effects an office move will have on you and your clients as you budget for your move. Get quotes from office space brokers to gauge the cost of hiring a professional to negotiate your deal. Step 2. Choose the appropriate employee to plan all aspects of the move, including the pre-move, the actual move itself and the post-move. <P> 1 A move consultant, who helps plan the move, may charge $450 for a 1,500 office space to $3,000 for a 10,000-square feet one. 2 Long carries or shuttling boxes and equipment through elevators will take more time and cost extra. 3 Packing and reconnecting voice and data lines by an IT firm runs about $150 per hour. 1 Moving a large, 10,000 square-foot office starts around $5,000 and runs up to $30,000 for companies with numerous employees and workstations that need to be moved. 2 Office moves based on the truckload average $500-$1,500 per load depending on the time it takes to load, the difficulty and the number of movers. <P> Discounts: 1 A move consultant, who helps plan the move, may charge $450 for a 1,500 office space to $3,000 for a 10,000-square feet one. 2 Long carries or shuttling boxes and equipment through elevators will take more time and cost extra. 3 Packing and reconnecting voice and data lines by an IT firm runs about $150 per hour. 1 Moving a large, 10,000 square-foot office starts around $5,000 and runs up to $30,000 for companies with numerous employees and workstations that need to be moved. 2 Office moves based on the truckload average $500-$1,500 per load depending on the time it takes to load, the difficulty and the number of movers. <P> 1 Moving the contents of a 1,500-square foot office costs $750-$4,500, depending on the amount of materials moved. 2 A legal or accounting office with many files or an office with modular units that need to be unassembled runs at the higher end of the scale. 3 A virtual paperless company with little furniture will cost less. 1 Moving a large, 10,000 square-foot office starts around $5,000 and runs up to $30,000 for companies with numerous employees and workstations that need to be moved. 2 Office moves based on the truckload average $500-$1,500 per load depending on the time it takes to load, the difficulty and the number of movers. <P> And open your wallet. According to the American Moving & Storage Association, the average cost of an intrastate move is $1,170, and the average move between states costs $5,630. The cost of a self-storage unit varies widely and depends on the location. CostHelper.com says a self-storage unit that’s 10 feet by 20 feet typically ranges from $95 to $155 a month, and $170 to $180 if the unit is climate-controlled. <P> This portion of the move can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $4,500 on average, depending on which services you obtain.

structure identify mineral | <P> 1 You can identify a mineral by its appearance and other properties. 2 The color and luster describe the appearance of a mineral, and streak describes the color of the powdered mineral. 3 A mineral has a characteristic density. 4 Mohs hardness scale is used to compare the hardness of minerals. A mineral is more likely to break where the bonds between the atoms are weaker. Cleavage is the tendency of a mineral to break along certain planes to make smooth surfaces. Minerals with different crystal structures will cleave in different ways, as Figure 3.16 shows. <P> Chemical composition and crystal structure are the most important factors in determining the properties of a mineral, including shape, density, hardness, and color. Geologists use these properties to identify which minerals are present in rocks. Hematite, halite, gypsum, lime, and bauxite are all minerals, naturally formed materials that have a specific chemical composition and crystal structure. Minerals are the building blocks of rocks, which can be composed of one or more minerals in varying amounts. <P> The common physical properties used to identify minerals include crystal form, luster, color, streak, hardness, cleavage, fracture, and specific gravity. However there are other properties used to identify minerals as well. These include reaction to acid, taste, smell, and magnetism. Some of these tests are more accurate then others when identifying minerals. For example color is not as reliable test as hardness. <P> Other Identifying Characteristics [edit]. Minerals have some other properties that can be used to identify them. For example, a mineral's crystal structure can be used to help identify the mineral. Sometimes, a trained mineralogist can tell the crystal structure just by looking at the shape of the mineral. A mineral is more likely to break where the bonds between the atoms are weaker. Cleavage is the tendency of a mineral to break along certain planes to make smooth surfaces. Minerals with different crystal structures will cleave in different ways, as Figure 3.16 shows. <P> Properties of Minerals. The following physical properties of minerals can be easily used to identify a mineral: 1 Color. 2 Streak. 3 Hardness. 4 Cleavage or Fracture. 5 Crystalline Structure. 6 Diaphaneity or Amount of Transparency. 7 Tenacity. 8 Magnetism. 9 Luster. 10 Odor. 11 Taste. 12 Specific Gravity. <P> A mineral is a naturally occurring substance, representable by a chemical formula, that is usually solid and inorganic, and has a crystal structure. It is different from a rock, which can be an aggregate of minerals or non-minerals and does not have a specific chemical composition. A mineral's hardness is not necessarily constant for all sides, which is a function of its structure; crystallographic weakness renders some directions softer than others. An example of this property exists in kyanite, which has a Mohs hardness of 5½ parallel to [001] but 7 parallel to [100]. <P> Minerals are defined as naturally occurring, inorganic, solids with a definite chemical composition and a regular, internal crystalline structure. The keys to this definition are the chemical composition and the crystalline structure. Different chemical compositions result in different minerals. A good example is the mineral plagioclase. Albite has a chemical composition of NaAlSi. Different crystalline structures, or how the atoms and molecules are arranged, result in different minerals. A good example is diamond and graphite. Both minerals are composed of carbon (C). <P> Determination of the actual chemical composition and crystalline structure of a mineral is difficult without the proper equipment. In an introductory level lab it is impossible for us to determine these two aspects of a mineral. Fortunately, these two aspects determine a mineral's physical properties. Albite has a chemical composition of NaAlSi. Different crystalline structures, or how the atoms and molecules are arranged, result in different minerals. A good example is diamond and graphite. Both minerals are composed of carbon (C). <P> Identifying Minerals. Geologist often identify minerals based on their physical and chemical properties. A description of these properties are listed below. Many of these properties are controlled by the elements present in the mineral and their arrangement.

what is a tortuous aorta with calcification | <P> Get help from a doctor now ›. Maybe a warning: A tortuous aorta is one that is not straight(the normal condition) but does not contain and aneurysm. This may occur normally in older people or those with long standing hypertension. It may also occur in younger people who have abnormal composition of their artery walls. Twisty: Tortuous simply implies that the aorta, which is usually runs a straight back from the upper chest through the belly, makes a lot of twists and turns. Tortuosity of the aorta, by itself, has few implications in health or disease. <P> Aorta (Definition). The aorta is the largest artery in the body, leaving directly from the left ventricle of the heart to supply blood to the entire body. It is made of elastic tissue layers called intima and is subject to damage by high blood pressure, smoking, cholesterol, and inherited risk factors. ...Read more. Twisty: Tortuous simply implies that the aorta, which is usually runs a straight back from the upper chest through the belly, makes a lot of twists and turns. Tortuosity of the aorta, by itself, has few implications in health or disease. <P> Hello, Welcome to Just Answer. This is a finding from a scan rather than a diagnosis. Fatty buildup on the interior lining of blood vessels, including the aorta, can also have calcium deposits form on them. This is the calcified part. Tortuous means twisted or distorted. <P> Report Abuse. A calcified aorta means that it is stiff due to calcium deposits in the artery wall. This condition is known as atherosclerosis which is a type of vascular disease. Aortic calcification is more common in older patients and those with cardiovascular disease and high cholesterol <P> Calcification occurs when the main artery of the body, known as the aorta, hardens as it passes through the abdomen. Before we discuss what the calcified abdominal aorta treatment is, we will explain why this condition occurs. We’ve all heard about cholesterol and the negative effects it can have on our body. High blood pressure can also cause atherosclerosis and in turn a calcified abdominal aorta. In addition, high cholesterol can lead to this problem. Lowering your blood pressure and cholesterol levels is a great way to reduce your risk of having a calcified aorta. <P> The aorta is the largest blood vessel in the body. It carries freshly oxygenated blood out of the heart so that it can be distributed to the circulatory system. In most people, the aorta follows a relatively straight path, but in people with tortuous aorta, the vessel may be twisted or distorted. closerfan12. Post 3. @EarlyForest -- Sometimes tortuous aortas can indirectly cause abdominal aortic aneurysms, like pharmchick78 was talking about. Since a tortuous aorta is abnormal, sometimes the wall of the aorta can be weaker, leading to an aortic aneurysm, or, worst case scenario, an aortic aneurysm rupture. <P> Many people with a tortuous aorta also have atherosclerosis or calcification of the artery. There are also at a higher risk for a wide range of ailments, including high blood pressure, low blood oxygen levels, and poor circulation. <P> The aorta is the largest artery in the body, leaving directly from the left ventricle of the heart to supply blood to the entire body.

Tortuosity of the aorta, by itself, has few implications in health or disease. <P> Aortic valve calcification is a condition in which calcium deposits form on the aortic valve in the heart. These deposits can cause narrowing at the opening of the aortic valve. This narrowing can become severe enough to reduce blood flow through the aortic valve, a condition called aortic valve stenosis. Aortic valve sclerosis — thickening and stiffness of the valve and mild aortic calcification — usually doesn't cause significant heart problems, but requires regular checkups to make sure your condition isn't worsening. If the valve becomes severely narrowed (stenotic), aortic valve replacement surgery may be necessary. | The aorta is the largest artery in the body, leaving directly from the left ventricle of the heart to supply blood to the entire body.

what human body system does erythropoietin regulate | <P> The kidneys ensure that the make-up and volume of the fluids in the body is correct. They help control the chemical balance of the blood and regulate the body’s level of sodium, potassium and calcium. The kidneys remove waste products and excess water from the body and so help to regulate blood pressure. They activate vitamin D, which helps to maintain strong bones, and produce erythropoietin, a hormone that is vital for the production of red blood cells. Each kidney contains 1.0-1.5 million small tubes called nephrons. The kidneys filter blood through a network of small blood vessels called the glomerulus. <P> Erythropoietin (EPO). Erythropoietin is a glycoprotein. It acts on the bone marrow to increase the production of red blood cells. Stimuli such as bleeding or moving to high altitudes (where oxygen is scarcer) trigger the release of EPO. People with failing kidneys can be kept alive by dialysis. Calcitriol. 1 calciferol (vitamin D 3) which is synthesized in skin exposed to the ultraviolet rays of the sun. 2 precursors (vitamin D) ingested in the diet. 3 calciferol is converted in the liver into 25[OH] vitamin D 3. 4 this is carried to the kidneys (bound to a serum globulin) where it is converted into calcitriol. <P> Hormone, erythropoietin: Erythropoietin is a substance produced by the kidney that leads to the formation of red blood cells in the bone marrow. Abbreviated: EPO. The kidney cells that make EPO are specialized and are sensitive to low oxygen levels in the blood coming into the kidney. These cells release erythropoietin when the oxygen level is low in the kidney. Erythropoietin stimulates the bone marrow to produce more red blood cells which in turn increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. EPO is the prime regulator of red cell production <P> The endocrine system includes all of the glands of the body and the hormones produced by those glands. The glands are controlled directly by stimulation from the nervous system as well as by chemical receptors in the blood and hormones produced by other glands. <P> 1 Erythropoietin (EPO) is a hormone produced by the kidney. 2 Erythropoietin promotes the formation of red blood cells by the bone marrow. 3 The erythropoietin hormone level can be detected and measured in the blood (the EPO test). These cells make and release erythropoietin when the oxygen level is too low. A low oxygen level may indicate a diminished number of red blood cells (anemia), or hemoglobin molecules that carry oxygen through the body. <P> Feedback Regulation Loops. The endocrine system plays an important role in homeostasis because hormones regulate the activity of body cells. The release of hormones into the blood is controlled by a stimulus. For example, the stimulus either causes an increase or a decrease in the amount of hormone secreted. 1 To identify and example of two organ systems working together to maintain homeostasis. 2 To summarize the role of the endocrine system in homeostasis. 3 To outline the result of a disturbance in homeostasis of a body system. <P> The endocrine system plays an important role in homeostasis because hormones regulate the activity of body cells.

what are delegated legislation | <P> Regulations, Rules and by-laws are examples of delegated legislation (also called s ubordinate legislation), which is so named because Parliament has delegated power to a local council, government department or other body to make further laws under a particular Act. Acts and Delegated Legislation. Acts (also called statutes) have a name and date, for example the Road Traffic Act 1961 (SA). The name usually reflects the subject matter of the Act and the date indicates the year in which the Act passed through Parliament. <P> It is law made by a person or body other than the legislature but with the legislature's authority. The power to create delegated legislation is limited to making regulation that is incidental to administering the primary legislation. Otherwise it will be considered as invalid or ultra vires. In the US, the corresponding terminology is as follows: 1 the statute that delegates authority (referred to above as primary legislation ) is called an authorizing statute or delegation of rule making <P> Delegated legislation can also be changed faster than primary legislation so legislatures can delegate issues that may need to be finetuned through experience. In the US, the corresponding terminology is as follows: 1 the statute that delegates authority (referred to above as primary legislation ) is called an authorizing statute or delegation of rule making authority. <P> · Delegated Legislation is law made by a person or body to whom Parliament has delegated law-making power; hence the term ‘delegated legislation’. · New laws often need to complete more detailed rules. · Only the people or body specified in the parent act have power to make law, and extend of that power is also specified. · The parent act will set out how the delegated legislation must be made and may set out certain procedures, such as consultation, to be followed. <P> 1 Regulations and Statutory Rules are the most common forms of delegated legislation. 2 They are made by the executive or a minister and apply to the general population. 3 By-laws, and sometimes Ordinances, are made by a local government authority and apply to the people who live in that area. Types of delegated legislation. Delegated Legislation is a term which covers the vast amount of legislation made by government agencies and the Governor-General under authority of Acts of Parliaments, which delegate this power to agencies. This type of legislation is also known as Subordinate Legislation or, since 2005, Legislative Instruments <P> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. In the United Kingdom, delegated legislation is legislation or law that is passed otherwise than in an Act of Parliament (or an Act of the Scottish Parliament, Northern Ireland Assembly or National Assembly for Wales). Instead, an enabling Act (also known as the parent Act or empowering Act) confers a power to make delegated legislation on a Government Minister or another person or body. Several thousand pieces of delegated legislation are made each year, compared with only a few dozen Acts of Parliament. <P> Delegated legislation allows the Government to make changes to a law without needing to push through a completely new Act of Parliament. The original Act (also known as primary legislation) would have provisions that allow for future delegated legislation to alter the law to differing degrees. Delegated legislation.

Add your answer. Source. <P> Rhizopus is a cosmopolitan filamentous fungus frequently isolated from soil, decaying fruit and vegetables, animal feces, and old bread. Aside from being known as common contaminants, Rhizopus species are also occasional causes of serious, and often fatal, infections in humans. <P> There are multiple species of Rhizopus, but Rhizopus stolonifer earned this species name because it is a black mold that grows on bread and its spores float around in the air. Rhizopus stolonifer also uses rhizoids as a way to anchor itself to the vast array of substrates it can come in contact with. The kingdom Fungi consists of organisms that are heterotrophic. Rhizopus stolonifer is a mold that lacks chlorophyll, is non-motile, filamentous, and a decomposer of organic material. <P> Black bread mold (Rhizopus stolonifer) is a widely distributed thread-like mucoralean mold. Commonly found on bread surfaces, it takes food and nutrients from the bread and causes damage to the surface where it lives. Asexual spores are formed within pinhead-like sporangia, which break to release the spores when mature. Germination of these spores forms the haploid hyphae of a new mycelium <P> (molds on food): An article from: Medical Update [HTML] (Digital) Bread Mold Fungus is a member of the Zygomycota. As with other members of the Zygomycota, under certain conditions the hyphae, which come in positive and negative mating strains, come together and form sexual structures. The picture at the right, believe it or not, shows one of the most common fungi in the world, the Bread Mold Fungus, Rhizopus stolonifer. <P> Posted on January 17, 2013 by Ayesha Batul. Molds are the common fungi found on the surface of stale food. The very acquainted mold appearing on bread is Rhizopus Stolonifer. Molds are fungi that grow in the form of translucent multicellular filaments called hyphae and a network of these hyphae is known as mycelium. <P> Brief Summary. Learn more about this article. This is one of the important species in genus Rhizopus. It is recognized as black bread mold also because it generally attacks the bread and produces the black colored sporangium and spore. In fact it has the whole mycelium of black color. Rhizopus stolonifer was first established in 1818 by the (Ehthrenberg) Vuillemin <P> A. A Filamentous Fungus: Rhizopus (Black bread mold). 1 On an amenable medium, Rhizopus can be seen with the naked eye, appearing as a fuzzy white mat growing all over the surface.

how long to cook a pork shoulder | <P> How long should you cook a 4-1/2-lb. pork shoulder or butt roast? Per our usual nagging, you should cook it until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the roast measures 160°F (70°C). <P> Cook for 2 to 4 hours, until fork tender: Let the pork cook undisturbed for 2 hours, then begin checking it every half hour. Total cooking time will be 2 to 4 hours, depending on the amount of pork and whether it's bone-in (which takes longer to cook). The pork is done when it is fork-tender (when the meat can be easily pierced with a fork without resistance and easily falls apart with a little pressure). Pin it Open Slideshow Pork shoulder is one of my secret weapons in the kitchen. A pork shoulder, slow-cooked and pulled into succulent little shreds, can become a thousand different meals. I can mix in some barbecue sauce and make pulled pork sandwiches, scatter the pork over pizza, or toss it into a sauce for pasta. <P> 1 Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F. 2 Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast). 3 Stir the salt and black pepper into the juice (do not omit the salt!). 4 Slice meat as desired. 1 Place the roast in a greased casserole dish with a lid. 2 Sprinkle the roast on all sides with Worcestershire sauce. 3 Let sit at room temperature for 1-1/2 hours. 4 After 1-1/2 hours spoon any Worcestershire sauce (if any) back on the roast that has accumulated on the bottom of the casserole. <P> Pork shoulder is best when it's cooked long and slow. Roast uncovered in the oven for about 1 hour per pound of meat. You may reduce the heat as needed if the pork appears to be cooking too quickly-many recipes call for 325 degrees Fahrenheit (163 degrees Celsius) rather than 350 (177 C). 6. Cook at a low heat for 8 to 10 hours. Place the cover on the crock pot and begin the lengthy slow cooking process. Slow cooking allows plenty of leeway in terms of cooking time, but, generally, you'll want to cook for roughly 2 hours <P> Using a pastry brush, spread the mixture all over the pork shoulder. Set the meat on a rack set into a roasting pan. Roast for 20 minutes, and then reduce the heat to 325 degrees F. Continue to cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the shoulder reads 185 degrees F, about 4 hours. Remove the pork from the oven and let stand until cool enough to handle, about 30 minutes. <P> 1 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. 2 Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F. 3 Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast). 1 Place the roast in a greased casserole dish with a lid. 2 Sprinkle the roast on all sides with Worcestershire sauce. 3 Let sit at room temperature for 1-1/2 hours. 4 After 1-1/2 hours spoon any Worcestershire sauce (if any) back on the roast that has accumulated on the bottom of the casserole. <P> That temp is better for a pork loin that you are going to slice. Pork shoulder needs to cook long and slow to allow that fall apart tender thing you are looking for. I would go to like 185-195F. I know people that don't pull it off the smoker until it is 200-205. My suggestion is to try turning a fork to see if the meat falls apart at 160F. Then when it doesn't, cook longer. Hey gang I picked up a 7lb pork shoulder that I wanted to roast for various pulled dishes and was curious on cooking time and temp, I need it to be fall off the bone tender but not dry, any insight to how to pull this off is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time. Reply. <P> Note that this cooking time is for a 4-pound Boston butt pork shoulder. A general rule on barbecued pork is to cook it at about 215°F to 225°F for 90 minutes per pound. If using a rub, you'll need to get the rub on the night before and refrigerate. An 8 pound roast will take at least 12 hours of cooking time. (If you want to cook 8 pounds of pork shoulder more quickly, I recommend starting with two 4 pound roasts, spaced on the grill a few inches apart, which will cook in just a little more time than an 8 pound roast.). <P> Pork shoulder (also known as Boston butt or Pork butt) is a cut of meat from the upper part of the front leg of a pig-the shoulder, in other words. Typically, pork shoulder cooking methods use slow, gradual cooking to create a tender, juicy, meat falls off the bone piece of pork. Regardless of the cooking method, this versatile cut of meat can serve as a main course, be pulled for sandwiches, or offered alongside summer barbecue fare. 6. Cook at a low heat for 8 to 10 hours. Place the cover on the crock pot and begin the lengthy slow cooking process. Slow cooking allows plenty of leeway in terms of cooking time, but, generally, you'll want to cook for roughly 2 hours per pound of meat. <P> 1 Cover tightly. 2 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F for 15 minutes. 3 Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F. 4 Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast). 1 Place the roast in a greased casserole dish with a lid. 2 Sprinkle the roast on all sides with Worcestershire sauce. 3 Let sit at room temperature for 1-1/2 hours. 4 After 1-1/2 hours spoon any Worcestershire sauce (if any) back on the roast that has accumulated on the bottom of the casserole. | 2 Hours per pound of meat. |
what medication is used for ocd and anxiety | <P> Medication. Medication treatment of anxiety is generally safe and effective and is often used in conjunction with therapy. Medication may be a short-term or long-term treatment option, depending on severity of symptoms, other medical conditions, and other individual circumstances. <P> Benzodiazepines are effective medications for most anxiety disorders and have been the standard of treatment for years. However, their longterm daily use is associated with a risk for dependency and abuse. Therefore, they have been replaced in most cases by SSRIs and other newer antidepressants. The standard approach to treating most anxiety disorders is a combination of talk therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and an antidepressant medication. Other types of medications (benzodiazepines, azapirones, beta blockers, or atypical antipsychotics) may also be prescribed <P> After you are diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), your doctor will likely prescribe antidepressants known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), such as fluoxetine (for example, Prozac). Antidepressants are thought to help balance neurotransmitters (such as serotonin) in your brain. Antidepressants (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine (for example, Prozac), fluvoxamine (Luvox), and sertraline (Zoloft) are commonly prescribed to treat OCD. These medicines are taken as tablets or capsules <P> Treatment. OCD is a serious, yet treatable anxiety disorder that often occurs with depression and other anxiety disorders. If not treated properly, it may become disabling. Most people who seek treatment experience significant improvement and enjoy an improved quality of life. <P> Certain psychiatric medications can help control the obsessions and compulsions of OCD. Most commonly, antidepressants are tried first. Antidepressants that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat OCD include: 1 Clomipramine (Anafranil). 2 Fluvoxamine (Luvox CR). 3 Fluoxetine (Prozac). 4 Paroxetine (Paxil, Pexeva) <P> Anxiety medications are used either alone or in combination with psychotherapy to treat a number of different disorders all classified as “anxiety disorders.” These include: 1 Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). 2 Phobias. 3 Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). 4 Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). 5 Panic disorder (PD). 1 Other antidepressants, including the serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), are used for panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social anxiety disorder, general anxiety disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. <P> Medication choices. Antidepressants (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine (for example, Prozac), fluvoxamine (Luvox), and sertraline (Zoloft) are commonly prescribed to treat OCD. These medicines are taken as tablets or capsules. The medicine venlafaxine can also help symptoms of OCD. Antidepressants (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine (for example, Prozac), fluvoxamine (Luvox), and sertraline (Zoloft) are commonly prescribed to treat OCD. These medicines are taken as tablets or capsul <P> A person with OCD may also have other anxiety disorders that complicate treatment and require using other medicines. For children and adolescents with OCD, treatment combining cognitive-behavioral therapy with antidepressants (SSRIs), such as sertraline, works better than only taking medicine. Antidepressants (SSRIs) such as fluoxetine (for example, Prozac), fluvoxamine (Luvox), and sertraline (Zoloft) are commonly prescribed to treat OCD. These medicines are taken as tablets or capsules | Fluoxetine, fluvoxamine,sertraline and Benzodiazepines |
how much should i fill my fishing reel | <P> Start with about 40 yards or 1/3 of the spool mono. Fill to capacity. with your braid, the back off 5 yards or so. Tie your fluorocarbon. leader and reel down so that the knot is just above the first guide. and over the tip 8 or so. The leader will probably last a trip or two before needing replacement. <P> Keeping tension on the line, I begin to wind the reel handle and fill the reel spool. Keep an eye on the reel spool to make sure that the line is filling the spool evenly and fill the spool within 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch from the edge. Too much or too little line will affect the reel’s performance. Once the reel is spooled, cut the line from the remaining line in the package and tie on your favorite lure. <P> Through your line in the tub with water in it, it will float. Put your line through the rod eyelets and tie onto your reel. hold a little pressure close to your bottom eyelet, not too much! reel as fast as you can and you should feel the water on your line as you reel. Stop a little past 3/4 full. Too full and your line will bounce off, too tight it will do the same in spurts. <P> 6. fill the reel with top shot. 7. you now have your reel with backing and 2 cast worth of top shot. ^this is the easiest way to do it but I actually do it a little different which involves measuring the line out and using 2 reels to transfer the line but I am anal about things sometimes. That's a good idea. <P> If you are just flicking for flathead or bream, I would fill the spool with slightly more mono and less braid. Mono is cheaper and the fish won't take that much off. For my smaller reels that I use for bream and flathead, I only have 75-100metres of braid. I fill the backing up with a cheaper mono. <P> I have decided to remove it (most of it) from my spinning reel. I purchased Stren Super Braid in a 125 yard spool. Since I had previously removed a fair amount of the Trilene, but am unsure about how much I should pull off. | 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch from the edge. |

what type of water is a pond | <P> A water garden is a pond that allows plants to grow. This is an attractive backyard feature, because it includes running water, and the bright colors and variety of plants. These gardens can be fairly easy to maintain, as long as they are in the right conditions. <P> Introduction. A pond is a body of freshwater smaller than a lake. Ponds are naturally formed by a depression in the ground filling and retaining water. Streams or spring water is usually fed into these bodies. <P> Water Plants. Water plants are widely considered the best way to enhance water features. Sometimes called aquatic plants, there is a water plant for virtually every type of water feature, from the smallest tabletop fountains to multi-level streams and expansive ponds. <P> A pond is a body of standing water, either natural or artificial, that is usually smaller than a lake. They may arise naturally in floodplains as part of a river system, or they may be somewhat isolated depressions (examples include vernal pools and prairie potholes). Researchers for the British charity Pond Conservation have defined a pond to be 'a man-made or natural waterbody which is between 1 m 2 and 20,000 m 2 in area (2 ha or ~5 acres), which holds water for four months of the year or more.' Other European biologists have set the upper size limit at 5 ha (12 acres). <P> As low as $548.00. Every pond water garden, whether plants-only or stocked, benefits by some form of water circulation system to stay clean, healthy, and algae free. At the heart of this system is the pump which moves the water. From there, your options are limitless. <P> A pond is a sure landscape decoration that brings charm and beauty to the outdoors.

Aquatic Biologists, Inc has assembled general information regarding the most common types of ponds. <P> A water garden in a private residence. Water gardens, also known as aquatic gardens, are a type of man-made water feature. They can be defined as any interior or exterior landscape or architectural element whose primary purpose is to house, display, or propagate a particular species or variety of aquatic plant. <P> To start with, a pond is usually smaller than a lake. A pond usually has mostly still water, while a lake may have currents. Ponds are overall much more shallow than lakes, which can be very deep. Ponds may be fed by a small stream, whereas a lake is usually fed by several streams. The water temperature of a pond is usually the same throughout, while a lake may have layers of different temperatures in its depths. Lastly, ponds have more plant life than lakes. <P> Main Types of Ponds. Building a pond can be as easy as filling a bowl with water but it also requires maintenance especially if it has fish and plants in it.

how long anti rabies vaccine is effective in humans | <P> Modern rabies vaccines are administered for pre-exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis and the vaccination schedule is determined accordingly.Pre-exposure prophylaxis Intramuscular administration: One dose of vaccine is administered intramuscularly on each of days 0, 7 and 21 or 28. The immune response induced by ID rabies vaccination is the same as with the IM regimens. Rabies antigen is inoculated into the dermis of the skin which helps trigger a high immune response. It has been shown that the antigen presenting cells in the skin are more effective than the ones in muscle. <P> Rabies immunoglobulin can be injected up to 7 days after first vaccine dose administration. Stop treatment if animal remains healthy throughout an observation period of 10 days or is proven to be negative for rabies by a reliable laboratory using appropriate diagnostic techniques. The immune response induced by ID rabies vaccination is the same as with the IM regimens. Rabies antigen is inoculated into the dermis of the skin which helps trigger a high immune response. It has been shown that the antigen presenting cells in the skin are more effective than the ones in muscle. <P> Rabies postexposure vaccinations consists of a dose of human rabies immune globulin and four doses of rabies vaccine given on the day of the exposure, and then again on days 3, 7, and 14. The vaccine is given in a muscle, usually in the upper arm. This set of vaccinations is highly effective at preventing rabies if given as soon as possible following an exposure. If a person has previously received postexposure vaccinations or received preexposure vaccinations, only two doses of vaccine (on the day of exposure and then 3 days later) are needed. Human rabies immune globulin is not required. Your doctor and local health department will be able to guide you through the process <P> Immunoglobulin should be given in a single dose of 20 IU per kg of body weight for human anti-rabies immunoglobulin, and 40 IU per kg of body weight for heterologous (equine) immunoglobulin; the first dose of vaccine should be inoculated at the same time as the immunoglobulin, but in a different part of the body. <P> A rabies vaccine is a vaccine used to prevent rabies. There are a number of available vaccines that are both safe and effective. They can be used to prevent rabies before and for a period of time after exposure to the virus such as by a dog or bat bite. The immunity that develops is long lasting after three doses. After exposure vaccination is typically used along with rabies immunoglobulin. It is recommended that those who are at high risk of exposure be vaccinated before potential exposure. Vaccines are effective in humans and other animals. Immunizing dogs is very effective in preventing human disease. They may be safely used in all age groups. About 35 to 45 percent of people develop a brief period of redness and pain at the injection site <P> Rabies vaccine. A 1.0 mL dose of rabies vaccine is given IM in the deltoid area of adults or the anterolateral thigh of young children on days 0, 3, 7, and 14 of the rabies PEP regimen (Table 3). The first vaccination is given concurrently with the HRIG at a site distant from the HRIG. Human rabies immune globulin (HRIG) is infiltrated around the site of the bite(s), and provides rapid passive immune protection with a half life of approximately 21 days. It is administered only once, on the first day of the PEP regimen (designated day 0). <P> For persons previously unvaccinated with rabies vaccine, the reduced regimen of 4 1-mL doses of HDCV or PCECV should be administered intramuscularly. The first dose of the 4-dose course should be administered as soon as possible after exposure (day 0). Additional doses then should be administered on days 3, 7, and 14 after the first vaccination. ACIP recommendations for the use of RIG remain unchanged. 1 Evidence for a 4-dose vaccine schedule for human rabies post-exposure prophylaxis in previously non-vaccinated individuals. 2 Vaccine 2009;27:7141--8. 3 Charlton KM, Nadin-Davis S, Casey GA, Wandeler AI. 4 The long incubation period in rabies: delayed progression of infection in muscle at the site of exposure | only two doses |
