use of pictograms in the earliest forms of writing present an additional challenge: requiring archaeologists to establish a fundamental difference between the representations of culture in artwork, and similar information denoted in a formal writing system. The discussion in class did not broach this conundrum, and neither did the textbook, yet I found the lack of specificity puzzling. Are cave paintings not a pictographic representation of hunting ritual and cultural practices? Regardless,…

CAS to operate most effectively it must operate in a space where creativity is not stifled by an over exercised level of control yet the system is not allowed to destructure and descend into chaos (Aydinoglu, 2010; Kim & Mackey, 2014; Marchi et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2015). The space a CAS best operates is often termed the edge of chaos and requires a system that is highly adaptive to maintain this position (Aydinoglu, 2010; Kim & Mackey, 2014; Marchi et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2015).…

The respiratory system is concerned with the exchange of water and carbon dioxide, the control of body fluid, the control of pH, and particularly the maintenance of homeostasis. Going into this lab, I wanted to observe the different parts of respiratory physiology and determine their purpose in being able to maintain homeostasis in the body. Through this lab I learned about lung capacity, or the amount of air my lungs can carry during different stages, such as inspiratory reserve volume,…

overthrow of the then Cuban President, Fulgenico Batista.

The electoral system in Canada is the significant cause of the growing democratic…

Measles and the flu are caused by the rubeola virus and various influenza viruses, respectively. Disease transmission is simply a competition for survival between the virus and the human host. Everyone wants…
