Degradation Article Reviews Samples For Students

Abstract

The world’s population is on an alarming increasing trend. Pressure on the available natural resources threatens the very source of life of humankind in the present and even worse for the future generations. Everyone is competing for whatever the inadequate resources that nature has provided, and degradation is the fierce reality from such overuse of natural resources. Admittedly, it is a responsibility for everyone to protect the environment.

The article review discusses about anthropogenic degradation, which occurs due to increased pressure on natural resources because of population explosion. The review serves as a revelation to all people who neglect the ...

Jonathan Simon writes this article with an aim of ending mass incarceration that was rampant during his time. Simon believes that mass incarceration leads to both torture and degradation of human dignity. However, modern correctionalism and the likes of rehabilitation curbs the problem associated with mass imprisonment, providing a more decent place for prisoners. Some institutions may fail to embrace human dignity, but the emergence of Red Cross in 1860 showed concern for humanity that everyone wanted. Prisoners from California are tortured, but only a few people know it, but the majority believes that prisoners suffer less than the ...

Summary

The given article is about a BiFET GSM-EDGE, which is a power amplifier that consists of a built in circuit to limit current. The collector current is limited to a predetermined level of the value 2.1 Amperes by having a bias circuit incorporated in the power stage of the amplifier thus limiting the HBT cells base current. The power amplifier ruggedness is increased by the given novel scheme in case it is subjected to much mismatch conditions. Furthermore, the matched loads of EDGE and GMSK PAE are maintained in a linear manner. In this paper, current limiting capabilities in ...

Analytical methods to evaluate seed dormancy in legumes

Abstract
Legumes are known to have multiple health benefits. The seed coat in particular contains a number of bioactive compounds which possess antioxidant activity. Of great interest is the relationship between the chemical composition of the seed coat and its role in seed dormancy. Modern technological approaches are currently used to further identify these compounds and determine their role in seed development; these include NRIS FTIR, mass spectroscopy, electron microscopy and chromatography. The following review describes the constituents of the legume seed coat and their respective roles in dormancy and other stages of seed development. The review also highlights ...

Abstract

IFITM3, a protein induced by interferon, restricts reovirus infection in host cells and inhibits the viral replication. It affects the proper penetration of the virus by altering the dynamics of the viral uncoating in the endosomes. This study is the first in characterizing the anti-viral activity of IFITM3 on non enveloped viruses that depend on endosome for cellular entry.
Following contagion with a virus, the body triggers the release of a class of cytokines, interferons that are involved in first line of defense against infection. Type I interferons are specifically induced in the cells following insult with both DNA and RNA ...

According to Victoria et al. (2012), the global demand for food has escalated by over 50% with the demand for water and energy heightening by up to 60% and 45% respectively. These increases have consequentially mounted a tremendous pressure on the world’s soils. In this light, the authors contend that soil plays an all-important role in the stabilization of the world’s climate, water supplies and most importantly biodiversity.

With an intention to emphasize the importance of soil ...
