OLAÑO Subject Teacher Submitted by: CHARISH JOY B. BAYOT 10-EINSTEIN March 2016 HISTORY OF VICES IN TEXAS The history of vice in the U.S. state of Texas has been an important part of the state's past and has greatly influenced its development. Vice activities, such as gambling and prostitution, have historically been a significant facet of both the state's culture and its economy. Law enforcement organizations have traditionally defined vice as including prostitution, gambling, alcohol and narcotics, and pornography. These activities, though always controversial, represented major influences in the state with some enterprises at times holding legendary status. The legal status of the individual activities has fluctuated substantially over time. Additionally during some periods individual communities and public officials have been accepting of many of these activities, even when they were illegal, because of corruption, because the activities were seen as inevitable, or often because the activities were economically important. Early Texas and the Republic of Texas Before the arrival of the European settlers in Texas, the plant peyote (peyotl in Nahuatl) had become a popular hallucinogenic among tribes in the Rio Grande Valley as well as parts of West Texas and Chihuahua. Tribes in the area included the Carrizo...

...1. Kinunot | | Kinunot is a spicy appetizer which ingredients include shark meat or sting ray meat. Yes, shark meat and sting ray meat. Who would have thought that these scary fish creatures can be so tasty? Bicolanos found a way to turn them into a very delicious food. The shark or the sting ray is cooked with coconut cream and malunggay or moringa leaves. It is a common joke in Bicol that when travelling by sea, you should bring malunggay because the sharks are afraid of it.Kinunot is now commonly prepared using sting ray because catching sharks nowadays is being prohibited. 2. Laing or Pinangat | | There is also a Bicolano recipe for vegetarians: the very popular laing. Laing is made from local “gabi” or taro leaves. The leaves is simmered in coconut cream and then served with siling labuyo or chili pepper. The dish is very common since the Bicolanos plant taro near their houses. 3. Bicol Express | | Bicol Express is a dish which was named after a passenger train from Manila to Bicol. They named the dish Bicol Express because eating the dish will make you run like a train to look for water to drink. Bicol express is made up of pork cooked in coconut milk and spiced with lots and lots of red hot chili. 4. Guinataang Labong | | Labong refers to a bamboo shoot which can be bought in any Philippine market mostly during the rainy season. It is also the main ingredient of Guinataang Labong which is a popular dish from the Bicol region...

...Cellular Structures and Pathogenicity Brittany McMahon ITT Technical College Cellular structures have different impacts on the ability for bacteria to cause disease. Mainly the cells external structures have the biggest effect to adhere to the cells to cause disease. One structure being the pili, a rigid, thin fiber made of protein that expands from the cell surface. The main function are to adhere specific bacterial cells to specific surfaces. There are typically only one or two pili per cell (Hartsock, Angela 2016). Pili that is coated with adhesins can determine the mucosal surface of the respiratory tract and will only adhere to that specific surface to infect those cells (Hartsock, Angela 2016). This bacteria is known as Bordetella. The fimbria is another external structure that is similar to the pili. They are short, filamentous structures that are in large numbers that help in attachment to surfaces (Hartsock, Angela 2016). Like pili the fimbria target tissues they believe will be the best host. Flagella has a completely different function from the pili and fimbria. The main function for flagellum is motility. They are long, tail like appendages attached to bacterial cells that allow the movement (Schuhmacher, J., Rossmann, F., Dempwolff, F., Knauer, C., Altegoer, F., Steinchen, W., Bange, G. 2015). Flagella is made of protein called flagellin. The proteins form a long chain that look like a helical shape. From the cell membrane the flagellum is wide and attaches...

...Bacteria are one of two types of Prokaryotic cells; the other being Archaea. The term “Prokaryotic” is Greek for “before nucleus”; therefore, bacteria are types of cells with no official nucleus. Cells with a nucleus came later on as life progressed, those being the Eukaryotes. Archaea and Bacteria are often confused together as they have very similar physical characteristics. They both have the same shape, size, and appearance, along with no membrane-bound organelles, but they have different ancestral origins and Archaea have more complex RNA polymerases. Each bacterial cell contains a capsule, cell wall, plasma membrane, cytoplasm, flagella, pili, ribosomes, and plasmids. The capsule is the outer layer of the cell and is composed of polysaccharides,...

...things the same? To keep our body at a constant temperature we need three things: receptors, a processing centre and effectors. Thermoreceptors in the skin detect changes in external temperature. They pass this information on to the processing centre in the brain called the hypothalamus which is a tiny gland in the brain. An important job of the hypothalamus is to regulate body temperature. Your body’s reaction to heat loss is involuntary and controlled by the hypothalamus. When it receives the message from the thermoreceptors it automatically triggers changes to effectors. The effectors are tiny muscles called arrector pili found attached to the hair follicles. When stimulated, these muscles will contract and cause the...

...The Integumentary System The integumentary system consists of the skin, hair, nails, glands, and nerves. Its main function is to act as a barrier to protect the body from the outside world. It also functions to retain body fluids, protect against disease, eliminate waste products, and regulate body temperature. In order to do these things, the integumentary system works with all the other systems of your body, each of which has a role to play in maintaining the internal conditions that a human body needs to function properly. Parts of the Integumentary System Skin The skin is the most important organ of the body, as it protects the delicate organs of the body. The skin is divided into three separate layers as follows: * Epidermis: This is the outermost layer of the skin that contains four separate layers of epithelial tissue. The outer most layer is the stratum corneum that is about 2 to 30 cells thick. These are keratinized and dead cells that make the skin waterproof! The second and third layer consists of the stratum granulosum and stratum lucidum, which contain cells that are not keratinised as yet. As these skin grows, the cells are pushed outward and come towards the surface. The last and the deepest layer of the epidermis is the stratum germinativum. These cells are active mitotically and have the ability to reproduce, as these cells are living, thus, making them the manufacturing center for growing skin. * Dermis: The dermis lies immediately after the...

...throat you acquire white dots on the very red surface f the flesh-typically throat. There is not vaccine against this particular bacterium because it is very adaptable to the human host and can easily mutate itself. Streptococcus pyogenes is the leading cause of bacterial pharyngitis and tonsillitis which both are referred to as a type of strep throat. A very unique quality of this bacterium is that it is known as the most pathogenic bacterium in its whole genus as it is a flesh eating bacterium. The flesh eating like quality of the bacterium is the cause of your throat becoming raw and sore. Something very unique about this specific type of gram-positive bacteria is that they have pili, which are usually only associated with gram-negative bacteria. The pili had the same protein structure as the pili in gram-negative cells that showed there were viral properties in this particular gram-positive cell. This has given some evidence as to why it is so good at fighting the immune system and causing this bacterial infection to proceed unless interfered with antibiotics. One interesting yet concerning factor of this species is that though it may be common and treatable with antibiotics, it can and has caused death in individuals. This specific type of bacterium is incredibly complex and very chemically diverse. It has high amounts of antigen qualities that make it harder to kill off. This type of bacterium displays molecular mimicry in the cytoplasm of this bacterium. In its cytoplasm...

...coli has many different strains and different virulence factors with in their DNA. Virulence factors associated with each type of E. coli strain is type 1 pili adherence, toxins, and siderophores. Type 1 pili adherence allows E. coli to attach to “mannose receptors associated with the host cell surface and may allow strains to co-agglutinate through bacteria-bacteria interactions” (Paradigms, n.d.). Each strain of E. coli produces a toxin called an endotoxin and has iron-carriers called siderophore that serve in transporting iron across cell membranes. Infection occurs when the Type 1 pili adheres to the mucous membranes of the small intestine causing damage to the host organism. Once attachments occur, the bacteria inject receptor proteins into the intestinal cells causing all the symptoms of E. coli and extreme...

Its must use its surface components to assess the environment and respond in a way that supports its own existence and survival in that environment. The surface properties of a membrane and cell envelope, including capsules, glycocalyx, slayers, peptidoglycan and lps, and the other surface structures, such as flagella and pili or fimbriae. Bacterial surface components may have a primary biological function that has nothing to do with path ogenicity. However, there are endless examples wherein a bacterial surface component plays an indispensable role in the pathogenesis of infectious disease. Bacterial structures may act as permeability barriers that allow selective passage of nutrients and exclusion of harmful substances; adhesions used to attach or adhere to specific surfaces or tissues; enzymes to mediate specific reactions on the cell surface important in the survival of the organism; protective structures against phagocytic engulfment or killing; antigenic disguises to bypass activation oh host immune defenses; endotoxins, generally cell wall components, that cause an inflammatory response in the host; “sensing proteins” that can respond to temperature, osmolality, salinity, light, oxygen, genome of the cell that will cause expression of some...

...pa nakakabasa ng ikatlong nobelang ito. Ako mismo ay nagulat nang malaman kong may kasunod pala ang pagkahaba-habang nobelang Noli Me Tangere at El Filibusterismo. Ang setting ng mga pangyayari sa nobelang ito ay sa bayan ng Pili kung saan sinasabing ang mga tao roon ay mahirap pasunurin. Naganap ang mga pangyayari sa panahon ng mga Kastila sa Pilipinas kung saan ang mga namumuno nang ganap ay ang mga prayle. Gaya ng ibang mga nobela ni Duktor Jose Rizal, ginawa niya ito para maipakita sa mamamayan ang mga tunay na nangyayari sa bayan ng Pilipinas. Kung ikokompara ang Etikang Tagalog sa ibang mga gawa ni Duktor Jose Rizal, makikitang hindi ito tapos. Bitin ang mga pangyayari pero masasabing mas nakakatawa ang mga pangyayari at hindi gaano madrama. Dahil dito mas nakakaenganyo at mas magugustuhan ito ng mga mambabasa. Sinimulang isulat ni Duktor Jose Rizal ang nobelang ito sa salitang Tagalog ngunit banadang huli ay tinuloy ang istorya sa wikang Espanyol at kinulang na ng oras para matapos ito. Hindi gaanong kaklaro kung sino-sino ang mga main karakter bilang hindi tapos ang nobela pero kita naman sa nobela na kasali sa mga major na karakter sina Padre Agaton, pamilya ni Kapitan Panchong, at pamilya ni Don Crispin. Si Padre Agaton ang kura ng bayan ng Pili na may gusto sa anak ni Kapitan Panchong na si Cecilia na tumitibok ang puso para sa pamangkin ng koadhutor na si Isagani.
