Bending

The human body has many unique attributes. What make the body function are organs that make up the body. Within those organs are cells that cause the organs to function. There’s a cell, which mainly hold the bones of the skeleton together, so we aren’t a puddle of mush. The muscle has amazing cells structures in the body. Because every part of our body acts as a working machine all organs of the body are equally significant. The skeletal muscle in the body is a very important portion of the…

immobilized. Alderink states, “Cadaver sacral mobility was measured with the hemi-pelvis immobilized. The sacrum appeared to follow the lumbar spine during trunk flexion, extension, side bending, and rotation. During lumbar rotation, the sacrum rotated to the same side and bent to the opposite side. If side bending was introduced first in the trunk, rotation occurred to either side. Lumbar spine traction resulted in sacral extension and lumbar compression in sacral flexion” (1, p.81). The sacrum…

I asked my dance teacher: "Can you teach me how to do a split?" She said: "How flexible are you?" I said: "I can make it Tuesday's and Thursday's" What exactly is flexibility? I can bend both meanings of the word into my life. I am both physically and mentally flexible. Ever since the age of 4, I have been wildly entangles with the beauty of dance. I don’t know whether the fascination came from the ballerina TV shows i used to watch, from the dancers I saw out in the streets, or whether I was…

Eliot explores a myriad of interpretations of the meaning of logos in the Four Quartets through Einstein’s theory of Relativity, by examining it through the bending of space and time, ultimately using this lens to arrive at the conclusion of the Incarnation. This curvature of spacetime opened the doors to the reality of a new method of understanding the world: non-Euclidean Geometry. Non-Euclidean Geometry differs from several key postulates of traditional Euclidean Geometry. These reworked…

When the remains of an individual are well preserved a bioarchaeologist may be able to infer what types of activates that individual may have been apart by examining different physical marks on the bones. This is known as markers of activity. Of course a bioarchaeologist will not have full data records to back up their claims but according to Larsen, author of Bioarchaeology, Interpreting Behavior from the Human Skeleton, human remains as a collective have plenty of information to allow…

Drosophila melanogaster, a species of common fruit flies, is widely used for biological research in studies amongst geneticists around the world. For many different reasons, these miniature organisms have become a favorite model organism for geneticists, biologists, physiologists, and many other scientists today, the obvious ones being their low cost, easy maintenance, ten-day generation time, and the fact that they produce large quantities of progeny. Besides these reasons, this species has…

In the Nickelodeon animated series The Legend of Korra, bending is the art of manipulating one of the four elements: earth, fire, air, or water. Within this world, there is a person called the avatar, who is capable of bending all four elements and is tasked with the responsibility to bring and maintain balance in the world. Throughout the series women are shown in various positions of power. These women maintain their positions with no resistance coming from the fact that they are female. The…

There were three categories of behavior: “rule bending,” “noble cause,” and acquisitive crimes. The questions were designed in this way to gauge police force policy versus police “integrity.” According to the results, most officers found the acquisitive offenses to be the most serious. An example of one…

her as a whole and this is seen throughout the poem. He describes her using two specific actions, which are “nodding” (line 2) and “bending” (line 9). Both “nodding” and “bending” have similar connotation because both actions set a person in downward positions. While “nodding” creates an image where an old lady is half asleep while her head keeps falling forward, “bending” creates an image where her spinal is being compressed. Both actions are characteristics that an old person would have. Yeats…

has changed my opinion on what I consider cheating in my life. Before reading this book I thought that cheating was only big things like taking performance enhancing drugs in sports or giving answers to a friend on a test. Whereas just slightly bending the rules didn’t occur to me as cheating. Also I came to a realization that almost everyone cheats or has cheated before. The people that due cheat risk a loss but also gain a huge reward if they don’t get caught. One thing that I remember best…
