These chemicals change the functions of the central nervous system (CNS)‚ providing temporary relief from mental‚ physical and social problems. Usage of a drug over a period of time often results in dependence and tolerance of the drug. The user experiences physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms when attempts are made to quit the drug. Tolerance refers to the increased ability of the body to tolerate the drug without ill effects. Due to

The Chemistry of Lipids Experiment #8 Objective To observe the solubility of lipids in polar and nonpolar solvents and to compare saturated and unsaturated fats in their chemical reaction with bromine. The percent fat in a food will be determined by extraction of the fat and weighing it. Introduction Lipids‚ by definition‚ are natural substances that do not mix with water but dissolve in organic solvents. There are several classes of lipids‚ including: fatty acids‚ waxes‚ triacylglycerols

Movement Of Blood Through The Body: Blood travels or circulates through the body through sort of pipes called blood vessels. The blood is pumped in to the blood vessel for circulation by the heart. The blood vessels are of three types called arteries‚ veins and capillaries. Arteries carry blood pumped by the heart to other parts of the body. Veins return the blood to the heart for pumping. Capillaries constitute a very large network of tiny blood vessels that reach every part of the body and connect

Lipid Digestion The process of mastication is our only conscious act in the digestion of the foods we consume. After that‚ it’s out of sight‚ out of mind; but should it be? What does it take to transform that last swallow into the energy our body needs to sustain itself? In the case of lipid digestion‚ the real magic occurs throughout the gastrointestinal tract with a synergistic collaboration from the accessory organs: the liver‚ gallbladder and pancreas. Understanding the whole process of digestion

ANS: MongoDB does not use traditional locking or compound transactions with rollback‚ as it is planned to be lightweight and fast and predictable in its performance. It can be thought of as analogous to the MySQL MyISAM auto commit model. By keeping transaction support extremely simple‚ performance is improved‚ especially

1. The present study was undertaken to test whether creatine given as a supplement to normal subjects was absorbed‚ and if continued resulted in an increase in the total creatine pool in muscle. An additional effect of exercise upon uptake into muscle was also investigated. 2. Low doses (1 g of creatine monohydrate or less in water) produced only a modest rise in the plasma creatine concentration‚ whereas 5 g resulted in a mean peak after 1 h of 795 (sd 104) μmol/l in three subjects weighing 76–87

Identity Through Body Art Through the dramaturgical model we can look at and study how people present themselves. Nonverbal communication‚ such as body art or clothing choices‚ projects a certain desired image. With this image we make an identity for ourselves - one that is recognizable and shows who we are. By managing our choices of body art (be it with clothing‚ tattoos‚ piercings‚ etc.) we are choosing how others see and perceive us. We are “performing” our identity for others. Then as a result
