Eventually, in the late 1600s, two more folios were published which included many newer improvements and many new plays which are believed to have not been wrote shakespeare. Modern day historians believe that the two later folios were made to meet the changing preferences in the area at the time. Due to the fact that all of Shakespeare's work is over 400 years old, there are many people who have conspiracy thoughts toward Shakespeare. It's hard to imagine that someone could accuse a very famous…

Pygmalion: Meant to Be Separate There're many discussions about the open ending of the play Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw. From a feminist perspective, Eliza Doolittle becomes a independent woman from a flower girl, and she seeks equality and respect in the play.

beta-hexoaminidase. Tay- Sachs is commonly caused due to a frameshift mutation which brings about the stop codon earlier than usual. This results in large amounts of gangliosides collecting in the neurones of the brain. These surplus gangliosides may cause death of the neurones. An individual possessing two healthy HEXA genes is free from Tay Sachs, while a person with one mutated HEXA gene is a carrier. Only when both the HEXA genes are faulty will the person have the disease. Tay Sachs may…

Tay-Sachs disease is a rare fatal genetic disorder, which occurs in children and characterized by progressive destruction of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Children with Tay-Sachs are born with the absence of an important enzyme, hexosaminidase A (HEXA). This enzyme is found in lysosomes, where it breaks fatty acids called GM2 ganglioside. The absence of hexosaminidase A causes GM2 ganglioside to build up in nerve cells to toxic level, causing its damage and the symptoms of the…

He promised his investors record dividends which fed their own greed. Owing to his success on wall…

The Daily Star, a widely circulated national daily, reported that a motley group comprising local leaders of pro-Awami League organisations, BNP men, madrasa students and common people were allegedly…
