Calf

sensitive (have a higher receptor density). The least sensitive area (which either indicated more convergence of neurons or lower receptor density), the back of calf, also resulted in the highest standard deviation, meaning there was a greater disparity of results. This could be because different groups tested different spots on the back of the calf, or because of differences in individuals’ sensitivity (have more/less relative receptor density or…

Skeletal remains are useful for interpreting the model of animal exploitation employed in a specific region, especially for large mammals, whose carcasses are extremely difficult to transport. (Becker 2002). With the presence of the whole animal carcass suggests an economy based on management in which animals are readily available and are slaughtered and butchered onsite (Arbuckle, 2009). Furthermore, if a high presences of “high utility” remains such as the limb of the animal are more common…

"In wilderness is the salvation of the world."(Leopold 2) This quote from "Thinking Like a Mountain," supports the fact that author Aldo Leopold believes an ecosystem needs to be balanced in order to grow and be stronger. Similarly, in the documentary Cold Warriors: Wolver vs. Buffalo, director Jeff Turner explains that the world has beautiful places with high valleys, canyons, and stunning forest.

Illuminated manuscripts are pieces of art, usually with hints of gold and silver and other bright colors to make the new look illuminated and beautiful. There are many ways that illuminated manuscripts were found in the Middle Ages. For example manuscripts could be found in something as simple as borders on pages and a picture in an article. They also could be found in very large and detailed art such as a historical initial or even wall sized art. All of these ways and more were used during the…
