Lab Report on Heuristics

Abstract
Heuristic techniques represent approaches that are employed in decision making, and they put to task a practical methodology that is not necessarily perfect or optimal, but one that is satisfactory enough in meeting the goals at hand (Hannawa, 2013). Recognition heuristics, in particular, people select an item such as a city because they are familiar with or recognize it (Oppenheimer, 2003). This concept takes center stage when the problem solver is accessed to limited information. Therefore, the problem solver uses what they know or recognize. This experiment sought to test the concept of recognition heuristics by assessing how ...

Introduction

An enzyme refers to a biological catalyst that mediates reactions. In the absence of enzymes, much energy and time would be required attain physical, as well as chemical conditions necessary for a reaction. An enzyme catalyzes the conversion of one molecule forming another molecule (University of Illinois, 2013). The rate at which enzymes catalyze a given reaction is, usually, influenced by several factors including pH, temperature, and the concentrations of the enzyme and substrate. Most of the factors are required to be at their optimum level for maximum activity of the enzyme to be realized.
Increase or decrease from the optimum ...

In a market economy, monopolies tend to have only one seller. However, it is close to impossible to have a pure monopoly where there is only one firm in the global market. As a result, monopolies tend to be defined as a market with few firms competing against each other. These firms have the power to hold the price above the socially optimal point. This is known as the monopoly power. A monopolistic market does not have the luxury of free entry and exit of the market (Perloff, 2004, P.109). This is because most of these monopolistic companies have barrier to entry by ...

Wound care, especially the management of chronic wounds is a costly affair. It is estimated that for every 1000 patients, 3.5 have a wound (Shepherd & Nixon, 2013). This implies that considerable resources are spent in the management of wounds. For instance, in the US, $2.8 billion is spent annually in the management of about 3-5 million chronic wounds. Chronic wounds negatively impact on the quality of life of affected patients since they affect their comfort, mobility, emotional well-being, life satisfaction, create caregiver burden, and time is spent seeking medical care (Buckley, Adelson, & Agazio, 2009). The implementation of prospective payment systems has ...

Abstract

Amylase from Bacillus Subtilis and Aspergillus oryzae were studied as representative candidates for bacterial and fungal enzymes, respectively. The activities of these two enzymes were studies comparatively over a period of 10 minutes and at temperatures of 0, 40, 60 and 95°C. The experiment was conducted to find the most effective temperatures for bacterial amylase and fungal amylase to catalyze starch hydrolysis. The data suggest that fungal enzyme was relatively more active, particularly in the first 6 minutes, than the bacterial counterpart at 0°C.
On the other hand, the fungal enzyme activity deteriorated more rapidly than that ...

Introduction:

In 1976, Marion Bradford designed the Bradford method that is widely used in measuring the concentration of protein in a solution. When Coomassie Blue is added to a solution containing protein, the solution colour changes from brown to blue and this is attributed to the formation of a protein complex. The concentration levels of protein can therefore be measured by observing the dye color, which fully absorbed at a certain wavelength. The standard curve is used to calculate the concentration of protein because it represents the known BSA (bovine serum albumin) dilution. (Harvard, 2012)
A study by Daiet (2008) analysed murinae in ...

Introduction

It is imperative to note that productivity growth is an aspect that is often used by economists to gauge the performance of an economy.
