What is the Neolithic Revolution? When and where did it occur? Towards the end of Pleistocene and the beginning of the Holocene‚ agricultural societies arose. Between 10‚000 and 12‚000 years ago in the Middle East‚ and later Asia and Africa‚ a radical shift occurred that changed human subsistence permanently (DeMello 131). This shift is called the Neolithic Revolution and it led to modern subsistence agriculture used to provide food to humans and many domesticated non-human animals today. The Neolithic

Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy‚ also known as CTE is a progressive degenerative brain disease. It is a lot like alzheimer’s and dementia in the sense that both Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and alzheimer’s/dementia have similar symptoms. Some symptoms of CTE Include memory loss‚ confusion‚ impaired judgment‚ impulse control problems‚ aggression‚ depression‚ anxiety‚ suicidality‚ parkinsonism‚ and eventually‚ progressive dementia. As you can see in the thermal scan above the brain is progressively

Introduction In these few years‚ molecular gastronomy has become a key topic and it is the new fashion for chefs to offer their customers. This is a new culinary trend called molecular cooking has been investigated as the most exciting development in haute gastronomy. Molecular gastronomy is refers to a modern style of cooking‚ which is a discipline practiced by both scientists and food professionals that studies the physical and chemical processes that occur while cooking. As well as it is the

1 Molecular-Orbital Theory Introduction Orbitals in molecules are not necessarily localized on atoms or between atoms as suggested in the valence bond theory. Molecular orbitals can also be formed the LCAO where more than two atomic orbitals are used. (Technically‚ we can use all of the atomic orbitals in the LCAO.) Linear combinations of orbitals result in the interference of waves. Both constructive and destructive interference may result. Within a diatomic molecule‚ N atomic orbitals

The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus was built in the capital city of Caria‚ Halicarnassus‚ which was present-day Bodrum‚ Turkey. It was built between the years 353 B.C. and 350 B.C. After construction had started‚ the Mausoleum could have faced destruction several times. The Rhodians’ land had been conquered by Mausolus‚ and they soon learned of his death. They rebelled and sent ships to capture Halicarnassus. They were defeated and the tomb was never harmed. It was untouched when Alexander the Great

Kinetic Molecular Theory Basic Concepts The gas laws developed by Boyle‚ Charles‚ and Gay-Lussac are based upon empirical observations and describe the behavior of a gas in macroscopic terms‚ that is‚ in terms of properties that a person can directly observe and experience. An alternative approach to understanding the behavior of a gas is to begin with the atomic theory‚ which states that all substances are composed of a large number of very small particles (molecules or atoms). In principle‚ the

The restriction sites that were used to clone the PCR fragment were XhoI and Bgl II. These sites do not occur within the target sequence and therefore are able to be used for this reaction. Refer to appendix 6 to view the results that confirm this. iii. An

Protein Structure on a Tertiary Level The third of four levels of protein structure is the tertiary level. The primary level are strands of the 20 amino acids‚ the secondary level are alpha helix and beta pleats‚ the tertiary level are a combination of helix‚ pleats‚ and bends‚ and the quaternary level involves multiple polypeptide bonds. The tertiary level is a three dimensional level that allows the protein to be fluid and move and make up the R group in the protein structure. There are four

Bennet Omalu discovered Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) in a former NFL player‚ Mike Webster. CTE is a progressive brain degenerative disease that is caused by repetitive brain trauma. Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy can affect who has had multiple brain injuries and may be any age. CTE can only be diagnosed through an autopsy but‚ tests can be done to determine if a person
