...Muscles Targeted in Kipping Pull-ups: Basically, Kipping Pull Ups target latissimi dorsi. For the most, a part known as lats, are the long and wide muscles that begin in the ribs and vertebral segment. The lats are in charge of controlling developments in the shoulders and help with the despondency, revolution, and adduction of the scapula. Along these lines when all is said in done, Kipping Pull-ups focuses on the lats of the body. Instructions of Kipping Pull-ups: Here are the most vital guidelines that you need to recall while doing kipping pull-ups 1.In a legitimately performed conventional kipping pull-up, subsequent to locking out over the bar, the competitor pushes once more from the bar into a circular segment that heaps the forward push of the trunk through the arms before the accompanying rep. This is a smooth, controlled development; in no way, shape or form is it bumping or ballistic unless done disgracefully. 2.In any instance of kipping force ups, sufficient planning is vital for wellbeing. it is for the most part prescribed to keep some assistance with you while doing this workout. This is not extraordinary to the kipping pull-up; it's valid for any physical movement. Where this gets to be distinctly tricky regularly is circumstances in which insufficient movement exists because of restlessness or numbness. 3.With respect to kipping pull-ups, if an individual can scarcely string together two or three ring columns at a high point, bouncing them into kipping pull-ups...

...Global Linkage of Foreign Exchange Author Info Elena Andreou Maria Matsi Andreas Savvides Registered author(s): Andreas Savvides Abstract This paper investigates bi-directional linkages between the stock and foreign exchange markets of a number of emerging economies. A quarto-variate VAR-GARCH model with the BEKK representation is estimated for each of twelve emerging economies to test for spillovers, both in terms of return and volatility, between the emerging stock market, foreign exchange market and global and regional stock markets. We find significant bi-directional spillovers between stock and foreign exchange markets. We also examine the effects of a country’s choice of exchange rate regime, on the one hand, and the Asian financial crisis, on the other, on the volatility spillover mechanism.

...Singing in the rain…. By Vimla Patil September 2009 Though rain has inspired joyous dances and music all over the world, India has a unique heritage of Monsoon Ragas which were composed and sung by legendary masters like Mia Tansen to initiate welcome showers to India’s parched forests and fields so that the land would be blessed with plenty…The music they composed has inspired painters, dancers and writers for generations…… ‘A lifetime of showers moistens the soul’, says an ancient proverb. And the shimmering, crystal-clear nuances of these beautiful words apply more to India’s colourful Monsoon culture than to any other art movement in the world. Rain and the magical season of Monsoon have always been the throbbing heart of Indian life and culture. Whether we are talking about music – classical, folk as well as devotional – dance, painting or sculpture, rains and their incessant music are a recurring theme in India’s many-splendoured art treasure, and not without excellent reason! It is well-known that India’s entire economy depends upon the timely coming of the Monsoons. Vignettes of farmers looking longingly at the skies for the first signs of fleecy black water-bearing clouds are familiar in our daily life. Folk songs welcoming the first thunder showers and streaks of lightning are sung in every village even today. The diverse dialects of India’s far flung villages are replete with songs welcoming the rains and their message of bounty. Indeed, the ancient...

...INTRODUCTION Management information systems encompass a broad and complex topic. To make this topic more manageable, boundaries will be defined. First, because of the vast number of activities relating to management information systems, a total review is not possible. Those discussed here is only a partial sampling of activities, reflecting the author's viewpoint of the more common and interesting developments. Likewise where there were multiple effects in a similar area of development, only selected ones will be used to illustrate concepts. This is not to imply one effort is more important than another. Also, the main focus of this paper will be on information systems for use at the farm level and to some lesser extent systems used to support researchers addressing farm level problems (e.g., simulation or optimization models, geographic information systems, etc.) and those used to support agribusiness firms that supply goods and services to agricultural producers and the supply chain beyond the production phase. Secondly, there are several frameworks that can be used to define and describe management information systems. More than one will be used to discuss important concepts. Because more than one is used, it indicates the difficult of capturing the key concepts of what is a management information system. Indeed, what is viewed as an effective and useful management information system is one environment may not be of use or value in another. Lastly, the historical perspective...

Additionally, there are medical treatments for aggression, anxiety, hyperactivity, and poor attention, which are common characteristics of Fragile X. Syndrome. There is no cure for Fragile X Syndrome. Treatment Fragile X Syndrome is a sex-linked inheritance of mental retardation. Although it can be found in all ethnic groups, it is predominantly found in males. There are physical and behavioral symptoms of Fragile X. There is no cure for this disorder, however there are many treatments in which a patient suffering from Fragile X can participate. Key Facts Praesent congue sapien sit amet justo. Fragile X Syndrome = Frequency of Fragile X Fragile X Syndrome can occur in all types of ethnic groups. However, it differs in the prominence in different genders. Because it is a sex-linked dominant gene, more males will be affected by this disorder. An estimated 1 in 4000 males are affected and 1 in 6000 females. One in 100/250 women are carriers for the gene. These female carriers often suffer from infertility and early menopause.

If a male has an X on their chromosome they automatically have the disease. A male cannot carry hemophila due to them only having a single X chromosome and hemophilia is a recessive x-linked trait. 5. The probability of Marcy and Tom having a child with hemophilia is 12.5%. This is because Marcy has a 50% chance of being a carrier. Marcy’s children in turn have a 50% chance of receiving a copy of the X chromosome. Thus, there is a 25% chance that any of the children would receive a copy of the recessive X allele from Marcy. Tom does not have hemophilia, so we know that the gene on his X chromosome is normal. Therefore, only Marcy and Tom’s sons could have hemophilia. The total probability of Marcy and Tom having a child with hemophilia is 12.5% which brakes down mathematically (0.5)(0.5)(0.5) = .125. 6. 7. 8. The drugs for chemotherapy target the rapidly dividing cells of the body, which include not only the cancer cells but the hair cells. Those drugs are used specifically to seize the ongoing replication of fast growing cells. This means that these drugs affect the fast replication of hair cells and new growth cannot occur because of the intensity these drugs apply to the cells. Fortunately hair loss is just when the chemotherapy is repeated throughout the body. Shortly after chemo is no longer...

...Eye Color of Drosophila: Sex Linked or Autosomal? Research Question: Is the eye color of drosophila a sex linked or autosomal trait? Introduction: Heredity is the study of acquiring traits by birth. A genotype is the alleles of an organism. A phenotype is the characteristics of an organism. Homozygous means having two identical alleles of a gene. A dominant allele is an allele that has the same effect on the phenotype whether it is present in the homozygous or heterozygous state. A recessive allele is an allele that only has an effect on the phenotype when present in the homozygous state. Heterozygous means having two different alleles of a gene. A carrier is an individual that has one copy of a recessive allele that causes genetic disease in individuals that are homozygous for this allele. We are going to do an experiment similar to what Gregor Mendel did with pea plants where we observe 3 generations and record the ratios of the phenotypes. The P generations were selected at the company that bred the flies for us (Carolina Biological). The P generation is purebred for their particular phenotype (Homozygous). The day that they were placed in the vials is marked on the vials, as well as the phenotypes of the p generation. After 2 weeks of breeding and laying eggs, the P generation was removed and the vials were shipped. The flies that you are working with today are the F1 generation. Then we selected 5 male and females flies and placed them in a vial with culture medium...

...Sex chromosomes produce very unique patterns of inheritance in living organisms. In humans, there is an X chromosome and a Y chromosome that determines the sex of the offspring. A male has an X and Y chromosome, whereas a female has two X chromosomes. The sex of an offspring is determined by whether the sperm cell that fertilizes the egg is made up of an X or a Y chromosome; ultimately the male is the determining factor of the sex of the offspring. Even though the Y chromosome determines if the offspring will be male, the X chromosome has genes that control certain human characters; these genes are called sex-linked genes because they are linked to a certain sex. There are approximately 1,098 sex-linked genes that code unusual inheritance patterns other than the female sex trait. Some of these sex-linked genes carry unusual inheritance such as color blindness, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and hemophilia. (O’Neil, 2012). In the case of the recessive mutation that causes hemophilia, a female has to be the carrier of the mutated allele, since she has the X chromosomes only. If the female carrier of the disease mates with a male who has hemophilia (XhY), there would be a one-quarter chance that they would produce a female offspring that has hemophilia (XhXh). Males though are more susceptible to inheriting the hemophilia trait if the mother is a carrier, because the dominant gene (XH) will prevent the disease. (Simon, 2015). Since males can only have an X and a Y chromosome, there...

...The Genetics of Fruit Flies can be Used to Understand Human Genetics Introduction: A gene is the functional and physical unit of heredity passed from parent to offspring. Genotype and phenotype are products of the different genes that one inherits. Genotype is the genetic constitution of an organism or cell. The observable physical and/or biochemical characteristics of the expression of a gene are the phenotypes (Genetics Home Reference 2013). A monohybrid cross is for a single trait when different alleles are combined through mating. A dihybrid cross calls focuses on two traits. Alleles on the sex chromosomes result in sex linked traits. In this experiment, multiple generations of Drosophilia melanogaster were examined and their hereditary traits analyzed. My hypotheses is that the traits will end up in a 1:1 ratio.The goal of this experiment was to note the traits of the fruit flies and how they relate to human genetics. Section Fri Tables F2 Generation Predictions Results Eye Color Wings Half Red, Half White Half winged, Half Not All Red All Males had Wings Materials and Methods: A parental generation of the fruit flies was obtained. Then 10 flies, 5 of each gender, of the F1 generation were obtained from the parent generation. Then 50-60 members of the F2 generation were obtained. At each stage, gender, eye color and wings were examined using a dissecting microscope after the flies were knocked out by FlyNap. Next, in the large petri dishes, crosses...

...“Alcoholism affected approximately 4.65 percent of the U.S. population in 2001–2002, producing severe economic, social, and medical ramifications” (Sloan, Sayarath and Moore). As many know, genetics plays a strong role in the component of alcoholism. As more genes are linked to the development of an alcohol addition, the finding will be proven useful in developing the necessary tools to better identify those who are at risk (Perry). For the last 25 years, a variety of human studies have supported the “theory of a genetic component in the susceptibility to alcoholism” (Begleiter). Researchers now estimated that between 50 and 60 percent of alcoholism risk is determined by genetics (Sloan, Sayarath and Moore). “It has sparked numerous linkage and association studies to include, investigating the roles of chromosomal regions and genetic variants in determining alcoholism susceptibility” (Sloan, Sayarath and Moore). There have been multiple studies to identify the gene that could potentially lead to a higher risk for alcoholism. For example, family studies have been conducted to measure the frequency of alcoholism as well as related conditions consistently found that “biological relatives of people who abused or were dependent on alcohol were at a significant risk of developing the disorder themselves” (Begleiter). However, “the complex etiology of alcoholism lends itself to further investigation that takes into account the multiple layers of...
