3. The earthworm has a segmented body with a mouth at the anterior end and an anus at the posterior end. It has a smooth, purple dorsal side and a rough, yellow ventral side with setae.

The Labyrinth of the Recollection Process Commonly, remembering enjoyable experiences makes you living full of joy, and remembering uncomfortable experiences makes you living in the swamps. Memories are like a coin that has two faces: happiness and sadness. Although these two are totally opposed to each other by meaning, they play a very important role in recalling our memories.

Mckeown-Green, who is an epistemologist at Princeton, defines music as an internationally product that organizes in a chronological order. Distinctive arrangements of musical features such as pitches, repetition, and tempo, convey the writer’s sentiments to the listeners or express individual emotions by various genres (Mckeown-Green). Nevertheless, pleasant melody is further than just a method to assert a certain idea, it relaxes and calms a child who suffers from Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). At Florida International University, the scientists from the Department of Psychology conducted a study of how hearing catchy tunes while doing your homework affect overzealous adolescents. The researchers have debunked the hasty generalization of how leisure like music and painting divert one from its studying.…
Possibly the most prevalent reason for listening to music is to regulate emotions. A study performed by Adam Lonsdale and Adrian North found that nearly 96 percent of people listen to music for the purpose of managing their current emotional state (Lonsdale & North 120). Mood regulation can be split into two categories, augmenting positive emotions and improving negative feelings. Augmenting positive emotions refers to listening to music in order to increase feelings like joy and happiness. Lonsdale and North describe that music has the power to increase energy levels and to motivate people (Lonsdale & North 120).…

The Psychology of Music People have only recently started studying in-depth into music’s connection with brain activity. Scientists are just now starting to develop theories why music has such a big impact on us as humans and our intelligence (Lerch). Music psychology is not a modern idea though. Even the ancient philosophers – Plato, Aristotle, Pythagoras – believed in the calming power of music (“Music and Emotions”).…
Music has been a part of people’s everyday lives for so long. It even evolved in a lot of different ways, then again, not everyone knows how much it actually affects the human mind and body. It doesn’t just make us sing along when we hear some of our favorite songs, it doesn’t just make us dance and groove, but it also has amazing scientific and medical effects. According to neuroscientist and author of This Is Your Brain on Music, Dr. Daniel J. Levitin, when people try to understand what exactly is the meaning of music and where it actually came from, people could have a better understanding on how it affects their motive, desires, memories, fears, and even communication. “Is music listening more along the lines of eating when you’re hungry, and thus satisfying an urge?…
