    Due to the lack of political opportunity and the worsening conditions of black workers, the workers had to take it upon themselves to free themselves from the major exploitation and repression. Black workers were the ones that had the absolute worse conditions and compared to white workers, they worked for the lowest pay, were placed in the most dangerous environments and had the most back breaking work. There were many instances where workers were injured or worse but no one seemed to care…

    The basal ganglia (BG) receives input at the striatum from the cortex and provides output from the pallidum, in particular the globus pallidus internal (GPi) via the ventral anterior and lateral (VA/VL) thalamic nuclei to the cortex – forming a motor loop.1,2 There are two major pathways in this motor loop, the direct and indirect pathways.1,2 The direct pathway originates in the cortex, projecting to the striatum of the BG which consists of the caudate and putamen nuclei.1,2 The striatum…

    growing up now, I think about how much white privilege there was in the world that I didn’t catch onto until now. For example, IVY league universities. Even though people mention how they select a good number of minorities to make up for affirmative action but still white people still have the privilege to get into a lot of the schools that black kids like me used to dream…

    Based on the sample schedule above, the Maersk Ohio spent 178.2 hours in port ( 7 days 10 hours) and 493.8 hours at sea ( 20 days 14 hours). Using the metric of 8760 hours in a year, the Maersk Ohio could theoretically complete about 13 voyages a year. The Atlantic crossing, after leaving the East Coast is when the Maersk Ohio typically carries around 3200 TEU’s (Capt Leville). While leaving Le Havre, France we were typically fully loaded with around 4120 to 4140 TEUs (Voyage Abstract). To…

    In order to determine the extent to which the reversal potential for potassium determines the resting membrane potential of a given cell, a mechanism is needed to determine the change in membrane voltage across the cell in different extracellular potassium solutions. The intracellular recording technique consists of puncturing a prepared cell with a conductive pipette. The difference in potential between the extracellular electrode and the wire in the pipette is recorded and displayed on the…

    Nernst Equation Lab Report

    • 7 Pages

    The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the ionic basis of the neuron’s resting membrane potential (Vm). We examine how this potential is affected by potassium ion [K+] concentration and permeability using Orconectes rusticus crayfish abdominal muscles, and we ask whether or not the Nernst Equation solely based on [K+] can also predict the cell’s resting membrane potential. We predicted that [K+] concentration had a significant influence on the membrane potential and thus the Nernst…

    The Gilded Age: a point in history when industries took advantage of their workers and lied to the government about it. Men, women, and children alike were extremely undervalued. Whether it was low pay, long hours, or unsafe work environments people at this time were not being treated as they should have. In theory as years went by things would’ve changed. Eric Schlosser disproves that theory with his book titled Fast Food Nation (2001). About a hundred years after the mistreatment in the Gilded…
