...Research Paper: Digestive System of Mammals A mammal’s digestive system depends on the food that their main diets consist of. Mammals are classified into three categories: carnivores, herbivores and nectar-feeding animals. This report will be focusing on the differences in each separate digestive system. Herbivore An herbivore is the term specified to a group of animals that feed on plants alone. Because of this eating regime, their digestive system is adapted in order to cater for the animals’ needs. One of the major features of the digestive system is teeth. The teeth of an herbivore consist mainly of incisors, molars and premolars in order to cut, bite, crush and grind their food. The canines, which are used for tearing flesh, are very small, as the herbivore does not need it when consuming plants. In some cases, the canines are non-existent. The molars are a distinctive feature of some herbivores due to the protrusions on the surface known as cusps, which help to grind and chew food over a long period of time. Plants contain cellulose, which can only be broken down after much crushing and grinding. Because of this characteristic, some animals replace their upper incisors with pads known as the horny pads. The lower incisors are able to bite against this bad in order to properly cut plants. Other adaptations of herbivores and how they “digest” cellulose include a vast range of characteristics. Some herbivores have a longer caecum, a pouch that is to be considered...

...fortunate to have parents that routinely brought me to the dentist. My dentist was a charismatic doctor that indulged my burgeoning interest in this field. Through his compassionate care for his patients and the professionalism he portrayed, I was motivated to pursue this fascinating and challenging profession. Knowing that this was what I wanted to do, I enrolled in dental school in India. The program was focused on treating patients from underprivileged areas, where care was otherwise impossible to obtain. My first exposure to treating these populations was during dental school. With their needs being so great, it allowed me to expose myself to a variety of dental procedures I would not have otherwise experienced. I performed single visit root canal treatment with both hand files and rotary, direct and indirect veneering techniques, as well as...

...The Diaphragm and Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia The diaphragm is a commonly misunderstood body part. Those who sing appreciate it purely due to their ability to control the diaphragm to enhance their singing. However, its real purpose in the human body is more important than that. The diaphragm plays such a crucial role in everyday life to the extent that one cannot survive without it. In this paper we will consider the role of the diaphragm through its anatomy and physiology. We will then review a congenital birth defect known as Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) and how it changes the anatomy and physiology of the body. We will also look at current research and prognosis of the disease in an effort to gain a better understanding of this often-fatal defect. The diaphragm is located almost centrally in the body. It is a continuous sheet of muscle that spreads across the bottom of the rib cage creating a divide between the thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity. As detailed in the text Gray’s Anatomy, the convex upper surface of the diaphragm faces the thorax and forms the bottom of the thoracic cavity. The concave inferior surface is pointed towards the abdomen and is mostly covered in peritoneum forming the superior part of the abdominal cavity. The right side of the diaphragm is superior to the right lobe of the liver, the right kidney, and the right adrenal gland. The left side of the diaphragm lays over the left lobe of the liver, the fundus of...

...Faneuil Hall for the sole purpose of Revolution. A meeting to oppose the tea tax was also held in Faneuil hall ("Faneuil Hall."). Revolutionary sentiments brewed within Faneuil hall thanks to the many speeches by patriots Samuel Adams held within the hall and it can be argued that Faneuil Hall served as the start of the long road towards American independence. After the revolutionary war, Faneuil Hall saw many other great speeches and meetings held there. The first African American legislator Julius Caesar Chappelle made a speech in Faneuil hall calling for civil rights for African Americans as reported in the New York age (1890). Nowadays Faneuil Hall served as a reminder for the people of Boston and America in general of their revolutionary roots and struggles of the founding fathers. Faneuil hall was indeed the cradle of liberty. A Biographical Profile John Harvard John Harvard was born in 1607 and passed away in 1638 (Wikipedia, 2014).

...Researching the historical and religious connection to Ethiopians and its sacred relationship to Jerusalem and the Holy Sepulcher was a bit difficult to find. But the deeper I looked into the history of the Ethiopian people, I have found that there Jewish roots connects them to Jerusalem further back than the newly revised version of the Holy Sepulcher’s presence. Currently they live in a kind of African village on the roof called, Deir Sultan, but many centuries ago they once held services and lived inside one of the Holy Sepulcher chapels. According to biblical history, Ethiopians presence has been in the region of Jerusalem since 1000 B.C., surviving for more than 1500 years through many wars and challenges. Though there has been many landlord changes in Jerusalem and the Middle East, Ethiopian monks have retained there monastic covenant until the mid-19th century. This is how the Armenians and Coptics expanded control over Ethiopians. Since the Ethiopian’s historical records were destroyed they were unable to provide evidence or claims to their original chapel inside the Holy Sepulcher. Today the ownership of the church is shared between the Greek Orthodox, Catholics, and Armenian Orthodox. The three minor Orthodox communities Coptic, Syriac and Ethiopian Orthodox have rights to use certain areas of the Church, Leaving the Ethiopian monks and nuns as the only black presence in Jerusalem’s Holy Sepulcher. Ethiopian monks have recorded historical data saying that Queen Helena...

...types of weathering. The first is mechanical weathering, the gradual breakdown of rock to sand, and then to silt, or powdered rock, and finally to clay through physical means. Mechanical weathering occurs in a variety of ways. For example, Heat and cold may cause minerals within a rock to expand and shrink at different rates, creating cracks. Water may seep into those cracks and freeze, expanding and splitting the rock. A raging river or ocean waves can smash rocks against each other, wearing the outsides smooth and turning rocks into sand. Or sand carried by the wind can act like sandpaper, slowly wearing rock away. A Glacier can rub debris against the rock beneath it, also acting like sandpaper. Even plants can force rocks to split as roots creep into cracks and grow. The second type of weathering is chemical Weathering, the breakup of rock caused by a change in its chemical makeup. Rain is the most common producer of chemicals that can weather rock. For example, Rain absorbs carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide from the atmosphere, forming carbonic acid and sulfuric acid, two liquids capable of dissolving other materials. The levels of carbonic and sulfuric acids in rain, while generally weak, can over time dissolve rock such as limestone, freeing other types of rock. Over very long periods, rain can even dissolve enough limestone to create caves and unusual rock formations. 2.

...What is the role of institutions according to North? How far does this theory go towards explaining the contours of world development in the pre-modern growth era? Maddison (2006) stated that he “would characterise the whole period 1000-1820 as ‘protocapitalist’”. He believes the transition from pre-modern to modern economic growth took place at around 1820. This will set the stage for this discussion. Within that period, there were two groups of countries which were differentiated by their deviation in economic growth. They were the Group A nations, which included Western Europe, Western Offshoots and Japan, while the rest of the world made up the Group B nations. The contours of world development in this era, largely shaped by Douglass North’s theory of institutions, can be categorise into two main subsets which are Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita and population demographics, for the purpose of this essay. North (1990) defines institutions as “the rules of the game in a society or, more formally, are the humanly devised constraints that shape human action”. Institutions exist in every economy, in the form of either formal or informal constraints, developed to define the choice sets, within which individuals and organisations make their decisions. Economic growth is heavily dependent on the productivity of an economy, which in turn is affected by the costs involved. In the neoclassical world of complete information, the gains of trade are only negated by the costs...

...The Baltic Dry Index as an Indicator of Global Economic Health Patrick Carroll Embry Riddle Aeronautical University Abstract The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the predictive qualities of the Baltic Dry Index and how it can be used as an indicator of potential economic activity. That by watching an index that deals with the cost of transporting raw materials it will signal both an upcoming rise and decline in the GDP . The very nature of the BDI prevents it from being manipulated by governments or other outside entities and since the supply of ships to haul materials is for all purposes inelastic, it is a true indicator of economic activity as the index will rise with demand as well as decline when there is a surplus of ships available. What is the Baltic Dry Index? The Baltic Index has roots all the way back to 1744 where ship captains and merchants would meet to discuss business deals at the Virginia and Maryland Coffee House in London. It later changed its name to the Virginia and Baltick to represent a more accurate description of the trading routes frequented by its customers. (The Baltic Exchange) Eventually in 1823 it adopted a more formal atmosphere that required membership with strict requirements. Fast forward to 1985, this is the birth of the Baltic Index as it is known today. The index is essentially an average cost of what shipping companies charge to ship dry goods in bulk such as wheat, coal, ore, and so forth. It is compiled daily and is an excellent...

E-mail: tajayi@unilag.edu.ng Received: May 22, 2012 Accepted: June 16, 2012 Online Published: June 25, 2012 doi:10.5539/jsd.v5n7p80 Abstract Small and medium scale industries in Nigeria play a major role in polluting water bodies, and key among these pollutants are suspended solids, biological oxygen demand and heavy metals contamination. Conventional methods of treatment, such as chemical precipitation, do not provide sustainable solutions as the pollutants are merely transferred from the waste water to a sludge residue which is disposed of by land-filling. The pollutants eventually find their way to freshwater supplies thereby contaminating it. Water hyacinth is a noxious weed that has a rapid growth rate and easily congests the water ways in Lagos, a coastal city in Nigeria, thereby creating serious problems in navigation, and irrigation. This can be harvested, and in line with the golden rules of sustainable development, used for the sustainable...
