A desk as an inanimate object is alive despite the fact that all the physical characteristics prove that it is not. Ideally, this is because the desk possesses several properties of life that prove it is indeed alive. First, a desk reflects the characteristic of responsiveness; it responds to the changes in the external environment. For example, dipping a desk into the water for a long time will decree its hardness. In particular, this shows that it has absorbed a lot of water within the period set. As a result, it reflects characteristics of living plant organisms that absorb ...

A chemist may be draw to the science because it contains physics and mathematics, with results clearly defined. On the other hand, biology can be messy, with fluids and disrupted bodies and patient suffering. For the nursing professional, there may be the temptation to define a physical process present in a patient as either biological or chemical. Technically, the definition for biology is simply the “scientific study of living organisms” (TheFreeDictionary.com), while chemistry is “a science that deals with the composition, structure, and properties of substances and of the transformations that they undergo” (Merriam-webster.com). However, the lines blur when ...

The systems that can adapt in reaction to unanticipated external disturbances and events during their operation are called autonomous systems . These systems have capability of self-adaptation, self-configuration, self-monitoring, tuning, and other kinds of adjustment without requiring external control input . Autonomous systems are also referred to as self-managed systems due to their independence from external controls. These systems are built such that their components satisfy the design intent in the presence of small perturbations, external disturbances, noise, or other environmental changes. In realm of control systems theory, autonomous systems carry the similar concept mentioned above. Talking in terms of state ...

Abstract

The ecological settings in an ecosystem change from time to time. The changes in the ecological settings are brought about by a plethora of factors. Through evolution, the organisms that live in the ecosystem also change to adapt to the aforementioned ecological changes. The adaptation of the organisms to the ecological changes yields variations because different organisms and even organisms of the same species are exposed to the elements to different levels. Man has a significant role to play in the ecological changes. Through his economic activities, the effect on ecosystems has been both positive and negative. Urbanization as ...

Over a long time, there have been witnessed various disasters that occur beyond human control.

Introduction

Proper presentation of data collected during a study is imperative to the credibility of a research. In fact, lack thereof compromises the interpretation embraced by the people relying on such information due to the possibilities of miscommunication in the presentation process. As such, researchers ought to follow a compelling approach whilst communicating the results of their study regardless of the research design followed. With this in mind, it is worth acknowledging the fact that there are multiple research approaches followed in the delivery of psychological research information. According to the Emergency Medicine Journal, the popular research designs include observational ...

Several centuries ago, St. Anselm wrote a prayer titled Proslogion. One of the key and thought-provoking aspects of this prayer is St. Anselm’s attempt to prove that God exists. Indeed, the prayer is comparable to Descartes’ argument because it results from an understanding of God’s perfection. Descartes maintained that God must certainly exist due to the fact that he could clearly perceive God and His perfection is such that Descartes could not have devised it on his own. St. Anselm’s argument is similar to that of Descartes because it has the properties of a priori argument. ...

There are two sides to the argument regarding the legalization of marijuana: the first proposes that marijuana is a drug hence it should not even be considered for legalization, neither for recreational purposes nor for medical use. The other side proposes that the drug is a proven success for its medical benefits and it should be given a try. Like every other experimental gadget and technology that has the potential to affect human life in any way, I hold the opinion that marijuana should be legalized for its medical benefits. This stance is not prompted by popular opinion or ...

A DC circuit consists of a source (e.g. battery or power supply) and a load (e.g. light bulb or electronic instrument). The electrons move from the negative terminal of the source, towards the load and then return to the positive terminal of the source, i.e. the electrons flow in only one direction . This movement of electrons will continue as long as there is a closed circuit. In contrast, the source in the AC circuit is constantly changing. The voltage of the source builds up and electrons flow through the circuit in the same way as for the DC circuit. ...

Introduction

How materials behave is dependent on various factors, some of which include their mechanical properties. When the material experiences various loading conditions, its behavior reflects its mechanical conditions as well as the effect of the loading conditions. When a material experiences various loading conditions, the material experiences either shear stress, tensile strength, or compressive strength. The tensile properties of a material relate to its ability support any axial loads to which it is subjected without rapturing (Department of Engineering. 2007). When a material is subjected to tensile stress, the deformation that occurs is in the form of elongation or ...

The Challenge of Antibiotic Resistance: Has our use of Antibiotics Caused more Problems than it has solved?

Antibiotics are medicines which have bactericidal or bacteriostatic properties and used in treatment or prevention of microbial diseases (NPS 2012). Antibiotics a have been in existence for a long time and were initially known as antibiosis which meant against life, and by Jean Paul Vuillemin first used this term. He used the word to describe the properties which were exhibited by the early antibacterial drugs. In 1877 Antibiosis was first described by Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch when they observed the inhibition of growth of Bacillus anthracis by an airborne bacillus. In 1928 penicillin was identified by Alexander Fleming. ...

In any type of company, one of the significant challenges for leadership is connecting industry knowledge and business analytics. Bartlett (2013) observes that these two components serve as the primary sources of information for decision makers. Managers generally hold much insight and wisdom in their accumulated experience, but unfortunately, any gaps in the facts are commonly filled with opinions (Bartlett, 2013). Instead of relying on subjective sources, leaders can utilize business analytics to validate new ideas and test industry beliefs (Bartlett, 2013). A starting point for effective business analytics is to recognize that data and information are not ends ...

While language is specific to humans, because this race is the only one capable of speaking due to its physical construction, communication is common to all other animals, regardless of species (Yule, 1996). Communication does not require words, but body language, signs, behaviors, etc., which transmit information, often unintentionally. On the other hand, language consists of sounds and syllables that shape an intentional information sharing process (Yule, 1996). Language is characterized by: displacement (the capacity of speaking about past, present and future), arbitrariness (the form of human language), productivity (the creativity to utter endless utterances), cultural transmission (passing ...
