Bats

For the Marginal Analysis Paper, my business will be producing maple baseball bats. After some research, I found that these kind of baseball bats can be produced for about $60 per unit. Fixed monthly cost for my company are $2375, which includes rent and utilities. With that information, a cost function of C(x)=60x+2375, where x is the quantity of units, can be used to determine the monthly cost of running the business. The Price-Demand equation for my hypothetical company is x=f(x)=8500-25p.…

The idea of the physicalism is that mind must account the subjective character of experience. Describal term of the physicalism is also know as "materialism". According from the author of the " What is it like to be bat?", Thomas Nagel, states that "if mental processes are indeed physical processes, then there is something like intrinsically" . As stated in Nagel's article, if there is something that is like to instantiate convinced physical properties then there is no answer to the question…

Diane Ackerman adores bats. In fact, she shows her depth infatuation for these infamous creatures in her nonfiction essay, “In Praise of Bats.” Ackerman strives to persuade her audience to appreciate the existence of the winged animal, and to use that sense of appreciation and apply it into the daily lives of others. By doing so, Ackerman paints the image of bats in the highest approbation, and conveys her message with sinuously developed, complex sentences. Ackerman made sure that her imagery…

usually fishes, insects, shrimps, crabs and scorpions. Male greater bulldog bats are larger than females, and usually a brighter orange color, whereas females tend to be duller gray or brown. The bat is infected with L17-CB21, which can be transmitted through saliva entering through open wounds or mucous membranes such as the nostrils, mouth and lips, eyelids and ears. Dr. Bojorquez and her team were able to find an infected bat and study its behaviors. Some observations taken were, “the…

Like to Be a Bat”— the inconceivability of physicalism as “a position we cannot understand” is born out of a discussion of the mind-body problem, and in particular, a discussion of objective and subjective experiences. Rather than positioning physicalism as false, Nagel maintains that physicalism is that which is presently incomprehensible because of the “subjective character of experience”— the conscious experience— which not only clouds our understanding of what it is like to be a bat, or…

Snapchat geofilters allow users to dress up a photo, but only if they are in the right location. The filters change based on where the person is when they take the picture, and someone in New York City will see different filters than individuals who are taking shots in Miami. In the past, users were limited to the geofilters offered through the company, but that has now changed. Community geofilters enable users to submit an idea and have their image distributed to a large group. For this reason…

A bat wing on a x-ray refers to a pattern that shows bilateral perihilar shadowing or consolidation. This happens when pulmonary pressures are high normally and these shadows can be caused by pulmonary edema, pneumonia, inhalation injury or leukemia (Bell,2017). Kerley B lines on an X-ray are a horizontal line that is less than two centimeters long, normally are seen in the lower periphery and are parallel to other ones at the right angles of the pleura. Most frequently they are seen from the PA…

My report is about brown bats. There are two types of brown bats. They are called Big and Little Brown Bats. I learned that they are nocturnal animals. That means they are active at night and sleep during the day. Brown bats sleep up to 20 hours per day. The life span of the Big Brown Bat is 18-20 years while the Little Brown Bat lives 6-7 years. If you go looking for brown bats you will find them in big colonies. Big Brown Bats and Little Brown Bats are similar because they are both…

and reproduce. i. Other than WNS, a threat to the survival of the bat species, if the total number of bats becomes very small, is a decrease in fitness as there will be less protection among the population of little brown bats. A decrease in fitness means the little brown bats won't be able to defend themselves against predators as their group numbers are too small. In addition, during the colder season, these little brown bats won’t be able to generate enough heat among themselves, which can…

Take The Dark Knight—the immensely popular superhero movie directed by Christopher Nolan. In theory, very few audience members could identify with a billionaire with multiple personalities who dresses as a bat and beats criminals to a pulp on a nightly basis. However, the Batman of The Dark Knight is easy to sympathize with, because he faces the same general experiences that most people do. At some point or another, everyone must deal with the death of a…
