The first sewing needles were made of bones and animal horns and the first thread was made of animal sinew (inventors.about.com‚ 4/16/06). The sewing machine‚ however‚ was a remarkable invention that was beneficial to all populations. More critical

hanicalSimple Machines and its Mechanical Advantage What are Simple Machines? What do we mean by Mechanical Advantage? Simple Machines * creates a greater output force than the input force Therefore since work is performed by applying a force over a distance‚ with the use of these machines we can do more work with lesser effort than working with our bare hands. In short‚ they make work easier. Mechanical Advantage * The Ratio between the input force and the output force. * The measure

Time Machine If I had a time machine and could bring back one person from the past I think it would be the singer Left Eye. I would bring her back so I can interview her because before she died I didn’t really believe in spirits coming after you until it happened to her. I think the way she died was really scary and I would like to ask her about how she went thru everything with knowing that spirits were after her. If I was to bring Left Eye back the first thing I would do bring her to her family

What is the biological significance of having two different types of terminators in transcription? Transcription in prokaryotes is terminated by factors called rho-dependent and rho-independent terminators; Rho is a ring-shaped protein and is the main factor required for termination (Leland‚ 2010). The rho-dependent and rho-independent terminators play a major role in the separation of an RNA transcript from the DNA template which signifies the end of transcription. However‚ the exact process is

Generalization is the ability of a machine learning algorithm to perform accurately on new‚ unseen examples after training on a finite data set. The core objective of a learner is to generalize from its experience.[2] The training examples from its experience come from some generally unknown probability distribution and the learner has to extract from them something more general‚ something about that distribution‚ that allows it to produce useful answers in new cases. Machine learning‚ knowledge discovery
