kinds of oils used for food | Oil is used as an ingredient and is also used for frying. One of the most common cooking oils is vegetable oil, but do you really know what that is? Do you know what oils are best used for frying or the proper way to store it? Here you will find different types of common cooking oils and the proper use of each of them. | Corn Oil: Most corn oil is extracted only from the germ of the corn kernel and is golden yellow in color; unrefined oil will have a darker color and richer corn taste. Use in salad dressings and dips with stronger flavors like peppers or garlic. | This means they keep better than polyunsaturated oils but not as well as saturated oils. They are most appropriate for light cooking or used raw in salad dressings and the like. Oils that are predominantly monounsaturated include olive, avocado, peanut, sesame, lard and duck fat. | Sesame Oil: The seed of the sesame plant provides sesame oil, which has a high antioxidant content. Unrefined sesame oil is great as a key flavor component in sauces or dressings. Use refined sesame oil for high heat applications like frying and toasted sesame oil for stir fries and Asian sauces and dips. | The current olive oil category used to be called pure olive oil.. Today, oils in this classification are a blend of refined olive oil and a virgin olive oil. The virgin oil lends a little aroma and flavor to the final product, which can have an acidity level of no more than 1.5 percent. |
what is eclectic paradigm theory | The eclectic paradigm is a theory in economics and is also known as the OLI-Model or OLI-Framework. It is a further development of the internalization theory and published by John H. Dunning in 1993. Internalization theory itself is based on the transaction cost theory. | The eclectic paradigm is developed by John Dunning seeks to offer a general framework for determining the extent and pattern of both foreign-owned production undertaken by a country's own enterprises and also that of domestic production owned by foreign enterprises. | An approach to analyzing whether it is beneficial for a company to make a foreign direct investment. The eclectic paradigm considers three factors. The first factor is whether a comparative advantage exists for the product the company wishes to develop in the foreign country. | VOLUME18•NUMBER1 Alan M. Rugman 1 Reconciling Internalization Theory and the Eclectic Paradigm Alan M. Rugman Abstract: The eclectic paradigm of Dunning (1980) (with its OLI and four motives for FDI framework) can be reconciled with the firm and country matrix of Rugman (1981). However, the fit is not perfect. | The eclectic theory paradigm is based on the assumption that institutions will avoid transactions in the open market when internal transactions carry lower costs. |
what temp does frost hit | Frost or freezing occurs when the temperature of air falls below the freezing point of water (0 °C, 32 °F, 273.15 K). This is usually measured at the height of 1.2 m above the ground surface. There is a rather subjective scale to show several degrees of frost severity: 1 slight frost: 0 to −3.5 °C (32.0 to 25.7 °F). For example, frost is used sometimes to indicate ice which forms on the ground during cold nights, but other times to indicate air temperature below freezing point. Hoar frost should be used for any frosted surface but it is sometimes reserved to indicate big ice crystals forming on very cold surfaces. | I know 32 degrees is freezing...but at what temp. do we experience a *light* frost? The forecast is for 37 degrees tonight..... But, a light frost can form with an average air temperature somewhere between 33 and about 37/38. Some surfaces radiate heat better than others, which is why you will get frost at times on elevated surfaces such as car windshields, blades of grass, roofs, or mulch when nothing else is frosty. | Frost (also called white or hoarfrost) occurs when air temperatures dip below 32°F and ice crystals form on plant leaves, injuring, and sometimes killing, tender plants. If a frost is predicted, cover your plants, both to retain as much soil heat and moisture as possible and to protect them against strong winds, which can hasten drying and cooling. You can use newspapers, baskets, tarps, straw, and other materials to cover your plants. | Now frost is a covering of ice crystals on the surface produced by the depositing of water vapor to a surface cooler than 0° C (32° F). The deposition occurs when the temperature of the surface falls below the frost point. Similarly, dew forms when the air or surface temperature falls below the dew point temperature. Thus, if the temperature on the ground or an object such as a bush or a car windshield near the ground falls below the frost point, frost crystals may form. But the measured surface temperature may still be above freezing. | A light frost occurs when the temperature drops to below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and refers to the conditions that allow a layer of ice crystals to form when water vapor condenses and freezes without first becoming dew. 1 Harvest basil and other tender herbs before a light frost (when the temperature drops to 32 degrees Fahrenheit). 2 Even if they survive the frost, they don't do well in cold temperatures. 3 The same is true for most annuals. |
where is milford sound located | Milford Sound. Milford Sound is located near the bottom of New Zealand's South Island in Fiordland National Park. Milford Sound is known for its rain. It receives up to 8 metres of rain per year. This makes it one of the wettest places on earth. There's so much rain that the first few metres of water in the sound is fresh water! | Geography [edit]. Milford Sound runs 15 kilometres inland from the Tasman Sea at Dale Point (also named after a location close to Milford Haven in Wales) - the mouth of the fiord-and is surrounded by sheer rock faces that rise 1,200 metres (3,900 ft) or more on either side. By road, Milford Sound is 307 km from Queenstown and 279 km from Invercargill (about four hours' drive), with most of the tour buses to the sound departing from Queenstown. Some tourists also arrive from the smaller tourism centre of Te Anau, 121 km away. | Geology. Milford Sound, located at the northern most end of Fiordland National Park on the South Island of New Zealand, is a national icon. In places as much as 400 metres deep, celebrated for its pristine landscapes, and remote and rugged beauty, it is actually a fiord, rather than a sound. From 1930-1954 the Homer Tunnel was built, allowing road access to Milford Sound, and visitors began to flock to Milford Sound to see it for themselves. Today it is New Zealand’s most famous tourist destination and frequently tops lists of the most beautiful places in the world. | Te Anau (118 km from Milford Sound): The lakefront town of Te Anau is 2 hours driving from Milford Sound depending on traffic. On the whole, Te Anau is an ideal place to stay with a beautiful location, good cafes and restaurants, and ample area activities. Lodging in the Milford Sound Area. Milford Lodge (2 km from Milford Sound): The Milford Lodge is by far the closest accommodation to Milford Sound and the only place to stay within 50 kilometers. | Milford Sound. Milford Sound is a fiord located in the beautiful Fiordland region in the south-west of the South Island. It was named after Milford Haven in Wales and lies roughly 287km from Queenstown (about a three and a half hour drive) and 757km from Christchurch (nearly a nine hour drive). FIORDLAND LODGE-Te Anau, Milford. Located on the highway to Milford Sound, Fiordland Lodge offers the discerning traveller style, comfort and privacy, yet is only five kilometres from the tourist township of Te Anau. |

what structures receive arterial blood from the brachiocephalic artery | The brachiocephalic artery is a branch off of the aortic arch and send blood to the head, neck, and right arm. Edit. Share to: 1 Blood Gas Testing for the COPD Patient If you have difficulty breathing, seek medical attention. 2 Shortness of breath is a symptom of a dangerous and progressive disease known as COPD. | Arteries are blood vessels that supply blood to the tissues of body. They carry the blood away from heart and because the blood inside them is oxygenated, they appear red in color. | Making the world better, one answer at a time. It is an artery of the mediastinum that supplies oxygenated blood the right arm, head and neck. | Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. The brachiocephalic (Brachi- , -cephal) artery extends from the aortic arch to the head. It branches off into the right common carotid artery and the right subclavian artery. | Pulmonary arteries carry blood from the heart to the lungs where the blood picks up oxygen. The oxygen rich blood is then returned to the heart via the pulmonary veins. Systemic arteries deliver blood to the rest of the body. The aorta is the main systemic artery and the largest artery of the body. It originates from the heart and branches out into smaller arteries which supply blood to the head region (brachiocephalic artery), the heart itself (coronary arteries), and the lower regions of the body. The smallest arteries are called arterioles and they play a vital role in microcirculation. |
spots on lungs that are not cancer | A benign lung tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue that serves no purpose and is found not to be cancerous. Benign lung tumors may grow from many different structures in the lung. Determining whether a nodule is a benign tumor or an early stage of cancer is very important. The first thing that may come to mind is a dreaded word: cancer. In many cases, though, a lung nodule turns out to be benign. This means that it isn't cancer. A hard part is waiting and not knowing. | Answer: A solitary spot on a chest X-ray — generally referred to as a lung nodule — sometimes can be an early cancer, so it's important to talk to your doctor to determine the best course of action. Lung nodules are common and typically noncancerous (benign). Tests may include the following: 1 CT scan of the chest if the nodule was first seen on a chest X-ray; 2 Positron emission tomography (PET) scan to see how active the nodule cells are — high cellular activity is an indicator of cancer or active inflammation; and/or. 3 Tissue sample (biopsy the nodule). | My grandmother has had a spot on her lung for 20 years, they just kept watching it. She is now 96. A spot on the lungs does not mean lung cancer, that is just one of the many things it could be. The fact that he is not a smoker increases the chances that it could be one of the many other things. In a non-smoking 34-year-old man it is highly likely that these 2 spots are not cancer. If they are in the area of the pneumonia, they could even be patches of slowly resolving infection. The densities and other characteristics of these 2 spots on the CT scan should enable your husband. | However, keep in mind that a spot on a chest X-ray is common and lung nodules usually indicate a benign condition rather than cancer. Nevertheless, a spot on the lungs can sometimes indicate a problem and your doctor should monitor it closely over time for changes and growth. While not all lung cancers will appear on an X-ray, you likely don’t have lung cancer if the X-ray looks normal. If a spot does appear on your X-ray, your doctor will probably want to order more tests to learn more, such as: 1 computed tomography (CT) scan. 2 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. | Factors that influence the likelihood that a solo spot on a lung X-ray indicates cancer include: 1 age: If you’re in your fifties or older, you have a 50 percent chance of a nodule being cancerous. While not all lung cancers will appear on an X-ray, you likely don’t have lung cancer if the X-ray looks normal. If a spot does appear on your X-ray, your doctor will probably want to order more tests to learn more, such as: 1 computed tomography (CT) scan. 2 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. |
what is the time span of the roman empire | The history of the Roman Empire covers the history of Ancient Rome from the fall of the Roman Republic in 27 BC until the abdication of the last Emperor in 476 AD. Rome had begun expanding shortly after the founding of the Republic in the 6th century BC, though didn't expand outside of Italy until the 3rd century BC. Civil war engulfed the Roman state in the mid 1st century BC, first between Julius Caesar and Pompey, and finally between Octavian and Mark Antony. | The Western Roman Empire officially ended 4 September 476 CE, when Emperor Romulus Augustus was deposed by the Germanic King Odoacer (though some historians date the end as 480 CE with the death of Julius Nepos). The Fall of the Roman Empire. From 376-382 CE, Rome fought a series of battles against invading Goths known today as the Gothic Wars. At the Battle of Adrianople, 9 August 378 CE, the Roman Emperor Valens was defeated, and historians mark this event as pivotal in the decline of the Western Roman Empire. | The Roman Empire. The Roman Empire included most of what would now be considered Western Europe. The empire was conquered by the Roman Army and a Roman way of life was established in these conquered countries. The main countries conquered were England/Wales (then known as Britannia), Spain (Hispania), France (Gaul or Gallia), Greece (Achaea), the Middle East (Judea) and the North African coastal region | The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not affected by the invasions which cause the western part to fall and continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years.Historians have coined the term Byzantine Empire to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire. The term Byzantine is derived from Byzantium, the Greek city which was redeveloped, turned into the imperial capital of the eastern part of the Roman Empire and renamed Constantinople by the emperor Constantine the Great in 330. | The imperial successor to the Republic lasted approximately 500 years. The first two centuries of the Empire's existence were a period of unprecedented political stability and prosperity known as the Pax Romana, or Roman Peace. Following Octavian's victory, the size of the Empire was dramatically increased. The Roman Empire was one of the largest in history, with contiguous territories throughout Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. The Latin phrase imperium sine fine (empire without end) expressed the ideology that neither time nor space limited the Empire. |
what is lactate in a blood test | Lactic Acid. Guide. A lactic acid test is a blood test that measures the level of lactic acid made in the body. Most of it is made by muscle tissue and red blood cells. When the oxygen level in the body is normal, carbohydrate breaks down into water and carbon dioxide. A lactic acid test is generally done on a blood sample taken from a vein in the arm but it may also be done on a sample of blood taken from an artery (arterial blood gas). | This is a blood test that measures the level of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) in your body. LDH is an enzyme, or catalyst, found in many different tissues in your body. These include your red blood cells, skeletal muscles, kidneys, brain, and lungs. | Introduction. A lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) test measures the amount of LDH in the blood. Lactate dehydrogenase is an enzyme that the body uses during the process of turning sugar into energy for your cells to use. LDH is found in many of the body's tissues and organs, including the muscles, liver, heart, pancreas, kidneys, brain and blood cells | A high lactate level in the blood means that the disease or condition a person has is causing lactate to accumulate. In general, a greater increase in lactate means a greater severity of the condition. When associated with lack of oxygen, an increase in lactate can indicate that organs are not functioning properly. The Test. The lactate test is primarily ordered to help determine if someone has lactic acidosis, a level of lactate that is high enough to disrupt a person's acid-base (ph) balance. | The lactate test measures the level of lactate in the blood at a given point in time. A normal lactate level indicates that a person does not have lactic acidosis, that there is sufficient oxygen at the cellular level, and/or that their signs and symptoms are not caused by lactic acidosis. ^ Back to top. The Test. The lactate test is primarily ordered to help determine if someone has lactic acidosis, a level of lactate that is high enough to disrupt a person's acid-base (ph) balance. |
in which Sc ecosystem is a horseshoe crab found | Horseshoe crabs are a keystone species within the Delaware Bay ecosystem. Description: Horseshoe crabs look like prehistoric crabs. They have a hard exoskeleton, ten walking legs under the shell, spines on the abdomen and a long tail. Most horseshoe crabs will not even make it to the larval stage before being eaten. If the egg survives, the larval horseshoe crab will hatch from the egg after about 2 weeks or more. The larva looks like a very tiny version of an adult horseshoe crab without a tail. | If you want to see one of the world’s oldest natural phenomena, then make a journey to the Delaware Bay in late spring. During full and new moons and high tides in May and June, hundreds of thousands of horseshoe crabs converge on the Delaware Bay to breed. Most horseshoe crabs will not even make it to the larval stage before being eaten. If the egg survives, the larval horseshoe crab will hatch from the egg after about 2 weeks or more. The larva looks like a very tiny version of an adult horseshoe crab without a tail. | These fascinating creatures (Limulus polyphemus) are found commonly along our beachfront sitting within the intertidal flats. The horseshoe crab is one of the oldest living species. Fossils of horseshoe crabs have been dated at 360 million years old. They evolved in the shallow seas of the Paleozoic Era (540-248 million years ago) with other primitive arthropods called trilobites, a long extinct close relative of the horseshoe crab. Among today’s species, they are more closely related to spiders than crab | He found the crab in the first row at Wrightsville, Beach, NC, and the crab without a shell on Masonboro Island, NC. Like hermit crabs, Shellback Crabs lack shells of their own. A Shellback Crab carries a clam shell on itsback, holding the shell in place with its last two pairs of legs. The first, very small pair is used to put ground-up food into the crab's mouth. The next five pairs are for walking. The first of those five, i.e., the second pair of appendages, is larger in males and is used to grasp a female during spawning. There are two very important facts to know about Horseshoe Crabs. | Horseshoe Crab eggs in a shell 12 inches wide, Edisto Island, SC, May 2008. I found the crab dead with appendages and book gills eaten away. This is the shell on the left. It is 29 inches long from the front edge of the carapace to the tip of the tail. The first, very small pair is used to put ground-up food into the crab's mouth. The next five pairs are for walking. The first of those five, i.e., the second pair of appendages, is larger in males and is used to grasp a female during spawning. There are two very important facts to know about Horseshoe Crabs. |
the cervical spine is composed of | Overview. The cervical spine is made up of 7 vertebrae. The first 2, C1 and C2, are highly specialized and are given unique names: atlas and axis, respectively. C3-C7 are more classic vertebrae, having a body, pedicles, laminae, spinous processes, and facet joints. | The normal anatomy of the spine is usually described by dividing up the spine into three major sections: the cervical, the thoracic, and the lumbar spine. (Below the lumbar spine is a bone called the sacrum, which is part of the pelvis). Each section is made up of individual bones, called vertebrae. There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, and 5 lumbar | What is a herniated cervical disc? The backbone, or spine, is composed of a series of connected bones called vertebrae.. The vertebrae surround the spinal cord and protect it from damage. Nerves branch off the spinal cord and travel to the rest of the body, allowing for communication between the brain and the body. | The cervical spine is made up of seven cervical vertebrae. The main function of the cervical spine is to support the weight of the head which is approximately 10-12 pounds. The cervical spine has the greatest range of motion, in part because of two specialized vertebra that move with the skull. | The spine (also called the vertebral column or spinal column) is composed of a series of bones called vertebrae stacked one upon another. There are four regions of the spine: 1 cervical (neck). 2 thoracic (chest/trunk). 3 lumbar (low back). |

what is the function of the ciliated mucous membrane in the nose | The interior of the nose is lined with mucous membrane, and most of the membrane is covered with minute hairlike projections called cilia. Moving in waves these cilia sweep out from the nasal passages the nasal mucus, which may contain pollen, dust, and bacteria from the air. the specialized structure of the head that serves both as the organ of smell and as the first segment of the respiratory apparatus. Air breathed in through the nose is warmed, humidified and filtered by the richly vascular mucous membrane. | Mucus in the airways helps trap foreign particles to protect the respiratory system. Cilia are tiny beating hairs that sweep the mucus up to your throat where it is either … coughed out or swallowed by the acids in your stomach. The cilia are like a janitor who always sweeps up the messes. The cilia in the nose play a major role in the sense of smell. The cilia transmit the smell to the olfactory nerve. They also catch toxins like chemicals, viruses, and bac … teria and cause them to become trapped in mucus and swallowed instead of being inhaled into the lungs. | The mucous membrane is thickest, and most vascular, over the nasal conchae. It is also thick over the septum; but it is very thin in the meatuses on the floor of the nasal cavities, and in the various sinuses. It is one of the most commonly infected tissues in adults and children. Structure of the Mucous Membrane (Fig. 857).—The epithelium covering the mucous membrane differs in its character according to the functions of the part of the nose in which it is found. In the respiratory region it is columnar and ciliated | Ciliated mucous membrane lines the nose, closely adhering to the periosteum. The mucous membrane is continuous with the skin through the nares and with the mucous membrane of the nasal part of the pharynx through the choanae. the specialized structure of the head that serves both as the organ of smell and as the first segment of the respiratory apparatus. Air breathed in through the nose is warmed, humidified and filtered by the richly vascular mucous membrane. | Like the nasal cavity, the sinuses are lined with a mucous membrane composed of cells that produce mucus and have cilia. Incoming dirt particles are trapped by the mucus, and then moved by the cilia into the nasal cavity, through small sinus openings. Because these openings are so small, the drainage can easily be blocked by conditions such as colds or allergies, which produce swelling of the mucous membranes. Know your nose The nasal cavity is divided into two passages by the nasal septum. The nasal septum is composed of both bone and cartilage and extends from the nostrils to the back of the throat. Bones called nasal conchae project into the lateral walls of the nasal cavity, forming a series of folds called turbinates. |

thyroid autoimmune disease sugar | A Little Gland with Big Problems. Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune disease of the thyroid. This little butterfly-shaped ball of endocrine activity happens to be rather important – it controls metabolism, female hormones, circadian rhythms and energy levels. Pretty much, as one specialist told me, everything that makes you feel good about being you. Quitting sugar, quite frankly, is mandatory if you have an autoimmune disease. Sugar causes leaky gut (often cited as the precursor to autoimmune disease). Sugar inflames and mucks with the entire endocrine system and insulin spikes destroy the thyroid gland. In addition to the damage caused by insulin, a compromised thyroid gland will slow the removal of insulin from the bloodstream | 1 Some autoimmune diseases, like diabetes and thyroid disease, can affect the body's ability to make substances it needs to function. 2 With diabetes, insulin injections are needed to regulate blood sugar. 3 Thyroid hormone replacement restores thyroid hormone levels in people with underactive thyroid. 1 Replace vital substances the body can no longer make on its own. 2 Some autoimmune diseases, like diabetes and thyroid disease, can affect the body's ability to make substances it needs to function. 3 | This is actually a post I’ve been busting to write for a while. I first quit sugar because of my autoimmune (AI) disease. I have Hashimoto’s.

what is a squa carcinoma | The Second Most Common Form of Skin Cancer. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells arising in the squamous cells, which compose most of the skin’s upper layers (the epidermis). SCCs often look like scaly red patches, open sores, elevated growths with a central depression, or warts; they may crust or bleed. | The most common types are basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, which are nonmelanoma skin cancers. Nonmelanoma skin cancers rarely spread to other parts of the body. Melanoma is the rarest form of skin cancer. It is more likely to invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body. 1 Skin cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tissues of the skin. 2 There are different types of cancer that start in the skin. 3 Skin color and being exposed to sunlight can increase the risk of nonmelanoma skin cancer and actinic keratosis. | Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer. It usually occurs on areas of the skin that have been in the sun, most often the nose. Often this cancer appears as a raised bump that looks smooth and pearly. 1 Skin cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tissues of the skin. 2 There are different types of cancer that start in the skin. 3 Skin color and being exposed to sunlight can increase the risk of nonmelanoma skin cancer and actinic keratosis. | Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a health condition involving the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the skin outer squamous cells of the epidermis. It occurs as a result of keratinization of the epidermal cells and has the potential to metastasize to other regions of the body. | Basal cell carcinoma is a slow growing, nonmelanoma cancer of the skin and is the number one cause of skin cancer in the United States. According the American Cancer Society, about 75% of all cancers of the skin are in the form of basal cell carcinoma. The cancer usually begins in the epidermis or the skin’s top layer. Squamous cell carcinoma is second only to basal cell carcinoma in incidence, but is a more serious cancer of the skin. It primarily occurs when there are changes in the skin’s cells. |

how much does it cost american taxpayers to house american arrested for marijuana | In reality, nearly 1 out of 8 U.S. drug prisoners are locked up for pot. Of course, several hundred thousand more Americans are arrested each year for violating marijuana laws, costing taxpayers another $8 billion dollars annually in criminal justice costs. Among those arrested, about 88 percent -- some 696,074 Americans -- were charged with possession only. The remaining 90,471 individuals were charged with sale/manufacture, a category that includes all cultivation offenses, even those where the marijuana was being grown for personal or medical use. | According to MARP, over the past 25 years more than 210,000 people have been arrested for marijuana possession in Colorado -- and of those arrests, communities of color have been disproportionately impacted. | TALKING POINT #4: Criminal laws prohibiting marijuana possession do not deter marijuana use. TALKING POINT #1: Decriminalizing marijuana frees up police resources to deal with more serious crimes. 60,000 individuals are behind bars for marijuana offenses at a cost to taxpayers of $1.2 billion per year. REFERENCE: Marijuana Arrests and Incarceration in the United States | Comments. American taxpayers are now spending more than a billion dollars per year to incarcerate its citizens for pot. That's according to statistics recently released by the U.S. Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Statistics.

what is aldehydes and ketones | In chemistry, a ketone (alkanone) /ˈkiːtoʊn/ is an organic compound with the structure RC(=O)R', where R and R' can be a variety of carbon-containing substituents. Ketones and aldehydes are simple compounds that contain a carbonyl group (a carbon-oxygen double bond). Ketones differ from aldehydes in that the carbonyl group (CO) is bonded to two carbons within a carbon skeleton. In aldehydes, the carbonyl is bonded to one carbon and one hydrogen and are located at the ends of carbon chains. | An aldehyde /ˈaeldɨhaɪd/ ˈældɨhaɪd or alkanal is an organic compound containing a formyl. Group the formyl group is a functional, group with the Structure-R, cho consisting of a carbonyl (center a carbon double bonded to) oxygen bonded to hydrogen and An r, group which is any generic alkyl or side. chain The formyl group is a functional group, with the structure R-CHO, consisting of a carbonyl center (a carbon double bonded to oxygen) bonded to hydrogen and an R group, which is any generic alkyl or side chain. The group without R is called the aldehyde group or formyl group. Aldehydes differ from ketones in that the carbonyl is placed at the end of a carbon skeleton rather than between two carbon atoms. Aldehydes are common in organic chemistry. Many fragrances are aldehydes. | Aldehydes () and ketones () are both carbonyl compounds. They are organic compounds in which the carbonyl carbon is connected to C or H atoms on either side. An aldehyde has one or both vacancies of the carbonyl carbon satisfied by a H atom, while a ketone has both its vacancies satisfied by carbon. | - The carbonyl group of aldehyde is bonded to a hydrogen from one end, but in ketone, the carbonyl group is bonded to carbon atoms from both sides. - Therefore, a ketone functional group is always seen in the middle of a molecule, and aldehyde group is always at a termini. Aldehyde. Aldehydes have a carbonyl group. This carbonyl group is bonded to another carbon from one side, and from the other end, it is connected to hydrogen. Therefore, aldehydes can be characterized with the –CHO group, and following is the general formula of an aldehyde. The simplest aldehyde is formaldehyde. | Aldehyde vs Ketone. Aldehydes and ketones are known as organic molecules with a carbonyl group. In a carbonyl group, carbon atom has a double bond to oxygen. The carbonyl carbon atom is sp 2 hybridized. So, aldehydes and ketones have a trigonal planar arrangement around the carbonyl carbon atom. Aldehyde. Aldehydes have a carbonyl group. This carbonyl group is bonded to another carbon from one side, and from the other end, it is connected to hydrogen. Therefore, aldehydes can be characterized with the –CHO group, and following is the general formula of an aldehyde. The simplest aldehyde is formaldehyde. |
why is uranus tilted | Yes, Uranus is really tilted on its side! Uranus has the largest tilt of any planet in our Solar System and it spins on its side. This means that one of Uranus' poles is often pointed towards the Sun, giving Uranus very long seasons. The rings of Uranus are also sideways compared to the rings of other planets. | Of all the planets in the solar system, Uranus is probably the oddest. A cool blue planet, it rotates on its side! The faint ring system around the planet gives testament to the fact, and makes the sight even more interesting. It really is quite baffling, since such a tilt is unmatched by the other planets. | Uranus is a real oddball in our solar system. Its spin axis is tilted by a whopping 98 degrees, meaning it essentially spins on its side. No other planet has anywhere near such a tilt. Jupiter is tilted by 3 degrees, for example, and Earth by 23 degrees. | One of the great mysteries of our Solar System is why Uranus is tilted on its side. Surely, if the solar system formed from the same rotating cloud of dust and gas, then all the bodies within it should rotate in the same way. And yet Uranus’ axis of rotation lies at 97 degrees to the plane of the solar system. | The Earth’s axis is tilted about 23.5 degrees. This is why we have seasons on Earth. But the axis of Uranus is tilted so far it’s hard to imagine how it might have even happened. The axis of Uranus is tilted at an angle of 98-degrees compared to the Sun’s orbital plane. Uranus. Image credit: Hubble. While the rest of the planets in the Solar System can be thought of like spinning tops, Uranus is more like a rolling ball going around the Sun. |
between what years did the bronze age,stone age and iron age era occur | The Stone Age is a broad prehistoric period during which stone was widely used to make implements with a sharp edge, a point, or a percussion surface. The period lasted roughly 3.4 million years, and ended between 6000 BCE and 2000 BCE with the advent of metalworking.

what influenced the impressionist movement | 1 Impressionist compositions were strongly influenced by the development of photography and the discovery of Japanese woodcuts. 2 Impressionism is now seen as the first movement in modern art, and had a huge influence on the development of art in the 20th century. 1 Impressionism was a style of painting that used a more scientific analysis of colour to capture the effects of light in nature. 2 The main artists associated with Impressionism were Claude Monet, Pierre Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro, Edgar Degas, Alfred Sisley and Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec. | 'Waterlilies and Japanese Bridge', 1899 (oil on canvas). Impressionism was an art movement in France at the end of the 19th century. The Impressionists were a group of artists renowned for their innovative painting techniques and approach to using colour in art. 1 Impressionism was a style of painting that used a more scientific analysis of colour to capture the effects of light in nature. 2 The main artists associated with Impressionism were Claude Monet, Pierre Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro, Edgar Degas, Alfred Sisley and Henri Marie Raymond de Toulouse-Lautrec. | Manet's paintings are considered among the first works of art in the modern era, due to his rough painting style and absence of idealism in his figures. Manet was a close friend of and major influence on younger artists who founded Impressionism such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Impressionism can be considered the first distinctly modern movement in painting. Developing in Paris in the 1860s, its influence spread throughout Europe and eventually the United States. | Paul Gauguin was a French post impressionist artist who experimented with bold colors and found much inspiration in the South Seas. He was an important artist in the symbolist movement and his bold use of color led to the synthetist style of art. Paul Cezanne was a French post impressionist painter who led the way from 19th century art to 20th century art including the style of cubism. | Impressionism is a 19th-century art movement that originated with a group of Paris-based artists whose independent exhibitions brought them to prominence during the 1870s and 1880s. Musical Impressionism is the name given to a movement in European classical music that arose in the late 19th century and continued into the middle of the 20th century. Originating in France, musical Impressionism is characterized by suggestion and atmosphere, and eschews the emotional excesses of the Romantic era. |

what is greywater | Greywater is any household wastewater with the exception of wastewater from toilets, which is known as blackwater. Typically, 50-80% of household wastewater is greywater from kitchen sinks, dishwashers, bathroom sinks, tubs and showers. Freshly generated greywater is not as nasty as blackwater, but if it's not handled properly it can soon become so. Greywater decomposes at a much faster rate than blackwater and if stored for as little as 24 hours, the bacteria in it use up all the oxygen and the greywater becomes anaerobic and turns septic. | Greywater contains far less nitrogen than blackwater Nine-tenths of the nitrogen contained in combined wastewater derives from toilet wastes (i.e., from the blackwater). Nitrogen is one of the most serious and difficult-to-remove pollutants affecting our potential drinking water supply. Greywater decomposes much faster than blackwater The implication of the more rapid decomposition of greywater pollutants is the quicker stabilization and therefore enhanced prevention of water pollution. | Greywater is washwater. That is, all wastewater excepting toilet wastes and food wastes derived from garbage grinders. There are significant distinctions between greywater and toilet wastewater (called blackwater). These distinctions tell us how these wastewaters should be treated /managed and why, in the interests of public health and environmental protection, they should not be mixed together. Greywater decomposes much faster than blackwater The implication of the more rapid decomposition of greywater pollutants is the quicker stabilization and therefore enhanced prevention of water pollution. | Greywater is gently used water from your bathroom sinks, showers, tubs, and washing machines. It is not water that has come into contact with feces, either from the toilet or from washing diapers. Greywater may contain traces of dirt, food, grease, hair, and certain household cleaning products. Greywater is different from fresh water and requires different guidelines for it to be reused. 1 Don’t store greywater (more than 24 hours). 2 If you store greywater the nutrients in it will start to break down, creating bad odors. | Greywater can also be used to irrigate vegetable plants as long as it doesn’t touch edible parts of the plants. In any greywater system, it is essential to use “plant friendly” products, those without salts, boron, or chlorine bleach. The build-up of salts and boron in the soil can damage plants. Greywater is different from fresh water and requires different guidelines for it to be reused. 1 Don’t store greywater (more than 24 hours). 2 If you store greywater the nutrients in it will start to break down, creating bad odors. |

normal level of tsh in children | 1 An under active thyroid presents with a TSH ranging from 2mIU/L or more than that. 2 A TSH level count ranging between 0.5 and 3mIU/L confirms thyroid disorder. 3 The normal TSH range for newborns ranges from between 1 – 39 mIU/L. 4 The normal TSH levels for children ranges from between 0.7 – 6.4 mIU/L. 1 The range of normal TSH levels for full term newborns is higher, as it can range from between 1.3 and 16 micro units per ML of blood. 2 The TSH range gradually reduces to 0.9 to 7.7 micro units per milliliter after 30 days. 3 The TSH narrows to 0.6 to 5.5 micro units per milliliter in school going children | Speaking roughly, normal levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) are in the range of 0.4 to 4.0 mIU/L. However, each laboratory and test manufacturer identifies its own normal TSH range. This is based on the test, the equipment being used, and the patients being tested. The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists has proposed a range of 0.3 to 3.0 for normal TSH levels. Using these cutoff values would lead to more people being diagnosed with an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism). | 1 The TSH narrows to 0.6 to 5.5 micro units per milliliter in school going children. 2 The normal TSH level gradually decreases in children; however, the free thyroid hormone (T4) levels in the blood will be relatively balanced for certain period. 1 The range of normal TSH levels for full term newborns is higher, as it can range from between 1.3 and 16 micro units per ML of blood. 2 The TSH range gradually reduces to 0.9 to 7.7 micro units per milliliter after 30 days. 3 The TSH narrows to 0.6 to 5.5 micro units per milliliter in school going children | TSH level is an indicator of thyroid function in children. Photo Credit Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images. Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is released from the pituitary gland and stimulates the thyroid gland to release thyroid hormones T3 and T4. Measuring levels of TSH is one way to assay the function of a child's thyroid gland. Typically, levels of TSH are quite high immediately after birth, and fall to adult levels by school age. TSH levels in school-age children normally ranges from 0.6 to 5.5 microunits per milliliter of blood. Normal Levels. For full term newborns, the range of normal TSH levels is quite large. TSH can vary between 1.3 and 16 microunits per milliliter of blood. After about a month, this range narrows to 0.9 to 7.7 microunits per milliliter, and by school age it decreases to 0.6 to 5.5 microunits per milliliter. | The TSH level is above normal in a child who is overweight, but that’s not due to an underactive thyroid, and hormone replacement won’t help. When someone has a lot of body fat, they have a lot of leptin, which stimulates the body to make TSH. In hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland is underactive and fails to make enough thyroid hormone. Hypothyroidism is common in children and adolescents, and is very treatable. In newborns, a lack of thyroid hormone is serious and needs prompt treatment. |

From the 17th century the peerage was conferred only to dukes. In 1789, there were 43 peers of which 6 were princes of the blood. Peerage was normally hereditary in the male line, though the king could extend it to the female line and even to the collateral lines. | The highly rarefied Bar-le-duc jelly, also known as Lorraine Jelly, is a spreadable preparation of white currant or red currant fruit preserves, hailing from this town. First referenced in the historical record in 1344, it is also colloquially referred to as Bar Caviar. It is limited towards the north-east by the Marne-Rhine Canal, on the south-west by a small arm of the Ornain, called the Canal des Usines, on the left bank of which the upper town (Ville Haute) is situated. | MAP & PLACES TO VISIT. Bar-le-Duc is located between Reims and Nancy in the Lorraine department of north-east France (200 km east of Paris). In a quiet location in a forested valley on the River Ornain, the town has several features and monuments to discover during a visit. Bar-le-Duc has also received the classification of a protected Historic Town in France as well as being one of the oficial French 'villes d'art et histoire' towns (see French Towns of Art and History). | A list of French Princes and Principalities. The following is a list of fiefs or territories which were used with the title of prince, for a variety of reasons, in Old Regime (pre-1789) France. The abbreviation EdlF indicates those cited as principalities in the Etat de la France (1694 or 1718 ed.). In some areas (especially in Brittany), the title of prince was traditionally attached to a feudal land which had been considered allodial, i.e., without overlord. In France, almost all lands were feudal, that is, held from some superior, ultimately back to the king. |
what molecules are made in the heterochromatin | You won't believe these 10 facts about people. Euchromatin is a substance composed of DNA and protein molecules that makes up the bulk of material within a mammalian cell nucleus. It is one particular type of chromatin that is distinguished from heterochromatin both by its function and location. | The cell appears to require this triple methylation for heterochromatin to be stable. Credit: Art For Science. To fit the two-meter long DNA molecule into a cell nucleus that is only a few thousandths of a millimetre in size, long sections of the DNA must be strongly compacted. Epigenetic marks maintain these sections, known as heterochromatin. The cell apparently requires methylation at H3K9 and a yet-unknown chromatin or lamina protein by Prdm3 and Prdm16 for heterochromatin to be stable. As with other methyltransferases, we assume that both enzymes can methylate other molecules besides histones. | This DNA/protein complex forms a fine fibrous material called chromatin. Especially dense regions of chromatin, in which the DNA is highly coiled, are called heterochromatin, whilst less dense chromatin, in which the DNA is largely uncoiled from the protein scaffold, is called euchromatin. | Euchromatin is a lightly packed form of chromatin (DNA, RNA and protein) that is rich in gene concentration, and is often (but not always) under active transcription. Euchromatin comprises the most active portion of the genome within the cell nucleus. 92% of the human genome is euchromatic. In prokaryotes, euchromatin is the only form of chromatin present; this indicates that the heterochromatin structure evolved later along with the nucleus, possibly as a mechanism to handle increasing genome size. | Chromatin. The nucleus contains the chromosomes of the cell. Each chromosome consists of a single molecule of DNA complexed with an equal mass of proteins. Collectively, the DNA of the nucleus with its associated proteins is called chromatin. Most of the protein consists of multiple copies of 5 kinds of histones. |
how long does a average person keep a car in us | Confidence votes 4. The average person will keep their car for 17.46 years.

Still, motorists might not realize the long-term financial benefits of keeping a car for 200,000 miles. | A shorter-term loan pays off the car faster and helps you pay less in overall interest costs, she said. The flip side of that is that a short-term loan — say, three years — comes with monthly payments that are more expensive: For a $22,000 car financed at 5 percent, you'll pay around $659 a month over three years. If you double that length to six years and keep the same interest rate, the amount owed is $25,510. By doubling the length of the loan, you'll pay more than twice as much in interest: $3,510 in interest payments versus $1,737. | The average person will keep their car for 17.46 years.

Before incubation, quail eggs can be stored for up to 7 days. When storing quail eggs before incubating, make sure that they are kept at a constant temperature of 13-18 degrees Celsius or 55-65 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not store the quail eggs at ordinary room temperature or in a refrigerator. Avoid placing the quail eggs in a draft when in storage before incubation. Store quail eggs with the small end facing down. Try to keep the quail eggs at the correct humidity prior to incubation which is a humidity of 84-88%. Make sure the stored quail eggs are turned twice daily before they are incubated. Keep the stored quail eggs in an egg carton and prop up one end at a 35 degree angle. Hope this information helps. | Incubating Eggs. Up until the last 2-3 days of incubation, eggs will require a constant temperature and humidity. They will also need to be turned a minimum of twice a day and preferably three or five times a day. During the last 2-3 days of incubation the eggs no longer need to be turned but they will require extra humidity. Each type of incubator will have suggestions as to how to increase the humidity at this time. Usually this involves closing air vents and adding more water to the incubator. | Turning. Turning is essential during the first 14 days of incubation and should be continued until 3 days prior to the eggs expected hatch day. If hand turning, always turn the eggs an uneven number of times a day, so the eggs do not spent two nights in a row in the same position. | Table: ideal temperature and humidity values depend on the number of days the eggs are stored. It is not advisable to store eggs above 21°C as this can also lead to increased bacterial growth on the eggs’ surface. Storage longer than 7 days will lead to greater early embryonic mortality due to cell death. Upon arrival at the hatchery, eggs are stored for a number of days before incubation starts. This period of time can vary considerably between 0 to 20 or more days. | Eggs may be collected and stored for up to seven days before incubating, longer than this and your hatch results will start to deteriorate. Make sure that you turn the eggs at least once per day while in storage to keep the embryo from dying. The eggs should be kept at room temperature for best results. During the last 2-3 days of incubation the eggs no longer need to be turned but they will require extra humidity. Each type of incubator will have suggestions as to how to increase the humidity at this time. Usually this involves closing air vents and adding more water to the incubator. |
what does the huntingtin gene do | huntingtin: The name of the gene responsible for Huntington disease (HD) and of the protein encoded by that gene. The molecular basis of HD is an increase in the length of a CAG triplet repeat (or 'polyglutamine') within the huntingtin gene. | (To read more about DNA, click here .) Everyone has a gene that codes for huntingtin protein, a protein found in the cells of the body, which we will discuss later. Towards the beginning of this gene, the three-letter codon sequence C-A-G is repeated a few times. Recall that a gene is a section of DNA made up of four different nucleotide bases, abbreviated by the letters A, T, C, and G. The order of these bases determines the protein “product” of the gene. | For example, the gene that encodes for huntingtin in fruit flies does not contain a sequence of CAG repeats. This evidence hints at the possibility that when humans and fruit flies diverged along the evolutionary tree, the function of their huntingtin evolved to differ as well. | Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by a mutated form of the huntingtin gene, where excessive (more than 36) CAG repeats result in formation of an unstable protein. These expanded repeats lead to production of a huntingtin protein that contains an abnormally long polyglutamine tract at the N-terminus. The gene and its product are under heavy investigation as part of Huntington's disease clinical research and the suggested role for huntingtin in long-term memory storage. It is variable in its structure, as the many polymorphisms of the gene can lead to variable numbers of glutamine residues present in the protein. | The HTT gene provides instructions for making a protein called huntingtin. Although the exact function of this protein is unknown, it appears to play an important role in nerve cells (neurons) in the brain and is essential for normal development before birth. The official name of this gene is “huntingtin.”. HTT is the gene's official symbol. The HTT gene is also known by other names, listed below.

what are transform boundaries | Transform fault (the red lines). A transform fault or transform boundary, also known as conservative plate boundary since these faults neither create nor destroy lithosphere, is a type of fault whose relative motion is predominantly horizontal in either sinistral or dextral direction. Transform faults are closely related to transcurrent faults. Both types of faults are strike-slip or side-to-side in movement, (see diagrams to the right) however transform faults end at the junction of another plate boundary or fault type, while transcurrent faults die out without a junction. | Transform Boundaries The final type of boundary is one where the two plates slide against each other in a sideways motion. These boundaries between plates is referred to as transform boundaries. As two plates slide past one another, in a transform boundary, neither plate is added to at the boundary, nor destroyed. The result of two massive plates pushing against one another is that massive amounts of energy build up. | Transform fault. 508 pages on this wiki. A transform fault or transform boundary, also known as conservative plate boundary since these faults neither create nor destroy lithosphere, is a type of fault whose relative motion is predominantly horizontal in either sinistral or dextral direction. | Slippin' and a Slidin' Transform boundaries neither create nor consume crust. Rather, two plates move against each other, building up tension, then releasing the tension in a sudden and often violent jerk. This sudden jerk creates an earthquake. The San Andreas Fault is undoubtedly the most famous transform boundary in the world. | Transform Plate Boundaries are locations where two plates slide past one another. The fracture zone that forms a transform plate boundary is known as a transform fault. Most transform faults are found in the ocean basin and connect offsets in the mid-ocean ridges. A smaller number connect mid-ocean ridges and subduction zones. |
what are transform boundaries | Since the plates on either side of a transform boundary are merely sliding past each other and not tearing or crunching each other, transform boundaries lack the spectacular features found at convergent and divergent boundaries. | Introduction. A transform boundary is a fault zone where two plates slide past each other horizontally. Most transform faults are found in the ocean where they offset spreading ridges creating a zigzag pattern between the plates. Some transform faults occur on land. San Andreas Fault. The San Andreas Fault is the transform boundary between the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate. During the 1906 San Francisco earthquake the northern section of the San Andreas Fault slipped northward along the fault from San Juan Bautista to Cape Mendocino, a total of 296 miles (477km). | The most famous example of a transform boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California. The San Andreas Fault is the edges of the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. The fault line runs through the Gulf of California and through the western part of California before running back under the ocean. Convergent boundaries form strong earthquakes, as well as volcanic mountains or islands, when the sinking oceanic plate melts. The third type is transform boundaries, or a boundary where plates slide past each other, forming strong earthquakes. All of this crashing, banging, and erupting are one reason why the surface of the earth has such a variety of landforms and features.

what does acetylcholine do to your body | Acetylcholine is also used as a neurotransmitter in the autonomic nervous system, both as an internal transmitter for the sympathetic nervous system and as the final product released by the parasympathetic nervous system. Acetylcholine has functions both in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and in the central nervous system (CNS) as a neuromodulator. In the peripheral nervous system, acetylcholine activates muscles, and is a major neurotransmitter in the autonomic nervous system. | Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter in brain... it sends electrical signals to all parts from brain... it stimulates the work to be done by specific part of body... acetylcholine is produced at synapse region of brain.... It's a neurotransmitter in humans in both the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylcholi... | Inside the brain acetylcholine functions as a neuromodulator —a chemical that alters the way other brain structures process information rather than a chemical used to transmit information from point to point. The brain contains a number of cholinergic areas, each with distinct functions. Acetylcholine has functions both in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and in the central nervous system (CNS) as a neuromodulator. In the peripheral nervous system, acetylcholine activates muscles, and is a major neurotransmitter in the autonomic nervous system. | Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that allows communication between cells in your brain. Acetylcholine is also the neurotransmitter that controls the contraction of skeletal muscle, the muscle the moves your body as opposed to the muscles of your heart and digestive system. Acetylcholine is produced from the essential nutrient choline that you must obtain in your diet. Eat foods rich in choline to maintain a healthy level of acetylcholine in your body. | This is because a number of high fat foods are rich sources of choline ,which is a precursor, needed to make acetylcholine. To maintain optimal brain processing speed, and avoid attention deficit disorder you will have to provide the nutrients your body needs to do its chemical processing. |
what does acetylcholine do to your body | Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter used at the neuromuscular junction —in other words, it is the chemical that motor neurons of the nervous system release in order to activate muscles. This property means that drugs that affect cholinergic systems can have very dangerous effects ranging from paralysis to convulsions.

what is fructose malabsorption symptoms | Fructose malabsorption is a common digestive disorder in which absorption of fructose (or other sugars like lactose or sorbitol) in the small intestine is impaired. About 30-40% of people suffer from FM. Symptoms of fructose malabsorption. The symptoms of fructose malabsorption have some similarities to those of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) , food allergies, food intolerance, and the inability to digest properly (weak digestion) . These symptoms can also be caused by yeast sensitivity or candida, from which around 1 in 3 people suffer | Fructose Malabsorption. When we eat fruit, fructose (the sugar found in fruit) passes through the walls of the small intestine lining into the blood stream. Once in the blood it is converted into glucose which the body utilises to burn for energy (like a fuel of a motor). | Fructose malabsorption, formerly named dietary fructose intolerance (DFI), is a digestive disorder in which absorption of fructose is impaired by deficient fructose carriers in the small intestine's enterocytes. This results in an increased concentration of fructose in the entire intestine. Occurrence in patients identified to be suffering symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome is not higher than occurrence in the normal population. However, due to the similarity in symptoms, patients with fructose malabsorption often fit the profile of those with irritable bowel syndrome. A small proportion of patients with both fructose malabsorption and lactose intolerance also suffer from celiac diseas | Fructose is absorbed in the small intestine without help of digestive enzymes. Even in healthy persons, however, only about 25–50 g of fructose per sitting can be properly absorbed. People with fructose malabsorption absorb less than 25 g per sitting. Occurrence in patients identified to be suffering symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome is not higher than occurrence in the normal population. However, due to the similarity in symptoms, patients with fructose malabsorption often fit the profile of those with irritable bowel syndrome. A small proportion of patients with both fructose malabsorption and lactose intolerance also suffer from celiac disease | Hereditary fructose intolerance should not be confused with a condition called fructose malabsorption. In people with fructose malabsorption, the cells of the intestine cannot absorb fructose normally, leading to bloating, diarrhea or constipation, flatulence, and stomach pain. |
what is the peloton | The peloton (from French, meaning little ball or platoon and cognate to the English word pellet) is the main group or pack of riders in a road bicycle race. Riders in a group save energy by riding close (drafting or slipstreaming) near (particularly behind) other riders. The peloton travels as an integrated unit (similar in some respects to birds flying in formation) with each rider making slight adjustments in response to their adjacent riders (particularly the one in front of each). | Full Definition of PELOTON. : the main body of riders in a bicycle race. See peloton defined for English-language learners. ADVERTISEMENT. | Peloton. The peloton, field, bunch or pack is the main group of riders in a road bicycle race. Riders in a group save energy by riding close near other riders. The reduction in drag is dramatic; in the middle of a well-developed group it can be as much as 40%. The term is also used to refer to professional cyclists in general. | The front rider in the peloton takes the brunt of the wind and air, cutting wind drag for rear riders by up to 40 percent. The peloton changes shape with the winds. A headwind narrows the peloton, so fewer riders must battle the wind. A backwind widens the peloton, so more riders take advantage of the push. When that flow is broken, reaction time is limited and we often crash. Boston — 'Peloton’ can refer to two things: either the whole pack of 219 riders from 22 teams participating in the Tour de France, or the V-shaped main pack of riders drafting off one another. Peloton literally means little ball or platoon. During the Tour, it a thing of beauty and danger | The word ‘peloton’ is used to describe the main group of riders in a road bicycle race. It is derived from the French language, in which it means ‘little ball’ or ‘platoon’. A group of riders may also be referred to as the pack, field or bunch, but peloton is the most commonly used term. The peloton travels as an integrated unit, however win contenders and sprinters often break away from the group to get ahead in th |

if a potato gets cold does it lose starch | More starch is removed from a cut potato than a whole peeled potato, because a greater surface area is exposed on cut potatoes. Soak them in cold water for as long as a few hours to remove more starch than by rinsing alone. You'll notice cloudiness and starch at the bottom of the bowl. If you simply want to reduce the amount of starch in your diet, discard the starch and water immediately after soaking the potatoes. But save the starch when you want to make extra crispy hash browns, latkes or home fries. | Aside from the fact that resistant starch in raw potato starch is a prebiotic as countless studies have shown, one of the things that makes it a great and possibly the best prebiotic is ... it's inexpensive. Or are you splitting hairs about raw potato starch vs.resistant starch. The latest hot trend on health blogs is resistant starch. It seems to have positive effects on blood sugar, especially in type 2 diabetics. Perhaps it also makes you feel fuller and more satisfied, which could facilitate weight loss. | Starchy foods such as potatoes, bread, cereals, rice and pasta should make up about a third of the food you eat, as shown by the eatwell plate. Where you can, choose wholegrain varieties, or eat potatoes with their skins on for more fibre. Starch is the most common form of carbohydrate in our diet. | 1 Resistant starch – along with plenty of regular starch – are found for example in beans, lentils and peas. 2 A lesser portion of the starch in a boiled potato or boiled rice is converted to resistant starch if it’s allowed to cool before being eaten. 3 Raw potatoes or green, unripe bananas are also possibilities. The latest hot trend on health blogs is resistant starch. It seems to have positive effects on blood sugar, especially in type 2 diabetics. Perhaps it also makes you feel fuller and more satisfied, which could facilitate weight loss. | Starchy foods like potatoes and pasta have had horrible reputations among dieters for decades. We’ve been told we must stay away from them if we really want to lose weight—but that’s not exactly the truth. LENTILS. Resistant starch content: 1/2 cup, cooked, 3.4 grams. A half-cup of lentils not only packs 3.4 grams of resistant starch, it also carries nine grams of protein and eight grams of filling fiber, making lentils a delicious fat-fighting triple threat. |
what is pecorino | Pecorino is a term used to define Italian cheeses made from 100% sheep’s milk. However, the American counterpart of the cheese is made from cow’s milk. | Cheeses made from sheep’s milk often are called pecorino cheeses. They can be hard in texture and sharp and salty in flavor, or medium soft to creamy and mild in taste. | Categories: Cheese. In Italy, cheese made from sheep's milk is known as pecorino. The most widely known is Pecorino Romano, followed by Percorino Sardo, Percorino Siciliano and Percorino Toscano, all of which have denominazione di origine controllata (DOC) status. | Post 1. Pecorino Toscano cheese is one of my favorite Italian sheep cheeses. It's softer and a lot less salty than the Pecorino Romano cheese which is used more often in Italian dishes. | Pecorino is a preferred cheese in many pasta cheeses and an obvious choice in Italian regions where the cheese is produced.

Editors living in Texas make an annual mean wage of $50,150 a year. Basically, those living in an area with a high cost of living will make more. Well if that isn't the darnedest coincidence. Freelancers generally make less than an editor on staff. | Expected Lifetime Earnings: $2,249,000. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, copy editors make a mean annual wage of $59,340 a year. Basically, you may make $28.53 an hour as a copy editor, but the range is wide and fat (like many of the editors who feast on late night Chinese food). The salary differs depending on the size and prestige of a company. Copy editors in New York make roughly $74,690 a year. Editors living in Texas make an annual mean wage of $50,150 a year. Basically, those living in an area with a high cost of living will make more. Well if that isn't the darnedest coincidence. Freelancers generally make less than an editor on staff. | Editors in North America can be hired for anywhere from $25 an hour to north of $60 an hour, which is reasonable compared to a lawyer, CPA or a plumber, but it’s far from free. Some editors will tell you they’re charging by the page or the project but we all base our fees on our preferred hourly rates. 1 Substantive editing, $50-$60 per hour or more, depending on the editor. | And so on. Editors make between $30,000 and $80,000 a year. Of course there are outliers (those making more or less); but the average salary is around $50,000.

uses of tea or coffee or alcohol | Tea originated in the southwest of China, possibly as a medicinal drink. It became a popular drink throughout China during the Tang dynasty, and tea drinking spread to other East Asian countries. Portuguese priests and merchants introduced it to the West during the 16th century. Tea is an aromatic beverage commonly prepared by pouring hot or boiling water over cured leaves of the Camellia sinensis, an evergreen shrub native to Asia. After water, it is the most widely consumed drink in the world | Medicines in my Home: Caffeine and Your Body Caffeine occurs naturally in more than 60 plants including coffee beans, tea leaves, kola nuts used to flavor soft drink colas, and cacao pods used to make chocolate products. Man-made caffeine is sometimes added to foods, drinks, and medicines. | 1 Preventing or delaying Parkinson's disease. 2 There is evidence that people who drink caffeinated beverages such as coffee, tea, and cola have a decreased risk of Parkinson's disease. 3 For men, the effect seems to depend on the amount of caffeine consumed. The body breaks down the caffeine in coffee to get rid of it. Alcohol can decrease how quickly the body breaks down caffeine. Taking coffee along with alcohol might cause too much caffeine in the bloodstream and caffeine side effects including jitteriness, headache, and fast heartbeat. | The Lord's law of health, also known as the Word of Wisdom, is a gateway to enriching every aspect of life.

uses of tea or coffee or alcohol | Why You Should Be Drinking Tea. Tea's health benefits: Although coffee has been linked to some health benefits such as lower risk of certain types of cancer, there are also some negative effects associated with coffee, such as caffeine dependency. The beneficial antioxidants, polyphenols, in tea may make the body absorb caffeine differently, over a longer period of time.

what are the function and metabolism of macronutrients | Confidence votes 1.1K. The three macronutrients are: fat, protein, and carbohydrates (carbs). These are the nutrients humans consume the most of. When your body breaks these down, it can provide you with energy (which, in turn, can keep you healthy--especially when used in exercise). | Image: Selection of foods. Nutrients are substances needed for growth, energy provision and other body functions. Macronutrients are those nutrients required in large amounts that provide the energy needed to maintain body functions and carry out the activities of daily life. | Nutrients are substances needed for growth, metabolism, and for other body functions. Macronutrients are nutrients that provide calories or energy. The prefix makro is from the Greek and means big or large, used because macronutrients are required in large amounts. | Nutrients can be divided into 2 categories: macronutrients, and micronutrients. Macronutrients are those nutrients that the body needs in large amounts. These provide the body with energy (calories). Micronutrients are those nutrients that the body needs in smaller amounts. | The macronutrients provide the substances we need for growth, metabolism, and body function. Breaking the macronutrients down into calories per gram helps simplify things. |
what is budesonide inhalation suspension | Budesonide inhalation comes in two forms -- the budesonide inhalation, and budesonide inhalation suspension that is inhaled using a nebulizer (a device that changes liquid medications into fine droplets that are inhaled into the lungs). Inhaled steroids go directly into the lungs and help to decrease the inflammation of airways that makes asthma attacks more likely. Because budesonide inhalation does not work quickly, it should not be used for treating an asthma attack. Rather, it is used once or twice a day in order to prevent asthma attacks. | (budesonide) Inhalation suspension.

what are the differences between photosynthesis and respiration | One difference of photosynthesis and respiration is that their process is being reversed. In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water is yielded to glucose or also known as sugar and oxygen while in respiration, it is the other way around. Sugar and oxygen is yielded to carbon dioxide and water. | The main similarities between cellular respiration and photosynthesis is that they are both processes in which a cell produces glucose or energy. Both are used in your everyda … y environment. One difference is that photosynthesis happens in plants and cellular respiration in both plants and animals. | As with cellular respiration, photosynthesis occurs in two stages. The difference between the two cellular processes is that cellular respiration processes are divided into processes that require oxygen and those that do not require oxygen. In the case of photosynthesis, the processes are divided into those that require light energy and those that do not require light energy. | Both Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration are processes, which organisms use to obtain energy to sustain life. Both the processes have two stages; photosynthesis occurs in the presence and the absence of light. And cellular respiration occurs in the presence and the absence of oxygen. | Photosynthesis and respiration are reactions that complement each other in the environment. They are in reality the same reactions but occurring in reverse. While in photosynthesis carbon dioxide and water yield glucose and oxygen, through the respiration process glucose and oxygen yield carbon dioxide and water. |
what are the differences between photosynthesis and respiration | The biggest difference between photosynthesis and respiration is that photosynthesis only occurs in plants and some bacteria while respiration occurs in all living organisms. They do share one big similarity and that is that the process of photosynthesis is actually the same process only it is completed in reverse. | Photosynthesis converts the light energy obtained from the sun into chemical energy of sugar and oxygen, whereas cellular respiration is a biochemical process by which cells obtain energy from the chemical bonds of food molecules.

what is the purpose of connective tissue | Connective tissue (CT) is one of the four types of biological tissue that support, connect, or separate different types of tissues and organs in the body. The other three types are epithelial, muscle, and nervous tissue. Connective tissue is found in between other tissues everywhere in the body, including the nervous system. In the central nervous system the outer membranes, the meninges, that cover the brain and spinal cord are composed of connective tissue. Other kinds of connective tissues include fibrous, elastic, and lymphoid connective tissues. Fibroblasts are the cells responsible for the production of some CT. Type-I collagen, is present in many forms of connective tissue, and makes up about 25% of the total protein content of the mammalian body. | For example, red and white blood cells are found in blood, which is a fluid connective tissue. Adipocytes are fat cells found in adipose tissue, or fat. And fibroblasts are cells found in large quantities in many different types of connective tissues. Because the types of connective tissue vary greatly, so do their functions. Adipose, or fat tissue, is a loose connective tissue that is specialized for storage. Although some people may have more adipose tissue than they would like, it does serve the important purpose of warmth and elasticity of certain organs. | Connective Tissue This is the most widespread and abundant type of tissue in the human body. Its function is primarily to support, anchor and connect various parts of the body. Areolar connective tissue is the most widespread connective tissue of the body. It is used to attach the skin to the underlying tissue. It also fills the spaces between various organs and thus holds them in place as well as cushions and protects them. | All connective tissue apart from blood and lymph consists of three main components: fibers (elastic and collagenous fibers), ground substance and cells. (Not all authorities include blood or lymph as connective tissue.) Blood and lymph lack the fiber component. All are immersed in the body water.

Strenuous exercise, sleep, and high-protein meals have also shown to increase prolactin levels. There are many pathologic causes of hyperprolactinemia | Some women have high prolactin levels without any symptoms. In men, high prolactin levels can cause galactorrhea, impotence (inability to have an erection during sex), reduced desire for sex, and infertility. A man with untreated hyperprolactinemia may make less sperm or no sperm at all. Normally, both men and women have small amounts of prolactin in their blood. Prolactin levels are controlled by other hormones called prolactin inhibiting factors (PIFs), such as dopamine. During pregnancy, prolactin levels go up. After the baby is born, there is a sudden drop in estrogen and progesterone. | Hyperprolactinaemia or hyperprolactinemia is the presence of abnormally high levels of prolactin in the blood.
