The final results of the experiment showed that the area under the graph of the absolute values of the EMG is a linear relation to the strength of the muscle contraction. This is due to the amount of force a muscle produce. As I squeezed the bulb in my hand harder, the duration of the burst of activity increases with the duration of the muscle contraction. So depending on the amount of fibers participating in the contractions this can contribute to the graded contractions. As my grip became…
Framing is the “selection of a specific aspect of an event to emphasize one dominant feature in a news item” (Professor S. Jeppeson, personal communication, Feb 26th 2016). The news article chooses one dominant feature to focus on and excludes other information. This creates a bias in the information presented because they are purposely focusing on certain information and emphasizing that feature. Therefore media framing is how the news is presented in a way that changes the audience’s…
It was hypothesised that the dominant hand would sustain an increased number of bicep curls in comparison to the nondominant arm. If findings demonstrate a larger number of bicep curls were conducted by the dominant hand, then the hypothesis is supported. The independent variable in this investigation was the dominant and nondominant hand and the dependent variable was the mean number of bicep curls performed. One factor…
When goat man and black cat had children the traits that are passed down to their children are: the horns, strong bones, and other dominant traits. Also, there will be some traits that the baby will inherit from black cat. Because of this, the baby will not look exactly like goat man. The baby might act like a superhero because of the traits it can inherit from goat man and black cat. The baby can be affected by what black cat or the mother eats. For example, if the baby's mom eats junk food all…
The US government’s oppression of Native Americans is reflective of the relationship between many dominant groups and subgroups in society, and the human rights implications that these relationships have were worthy of mention in Peterson and Parisi’s critique of human…
The wealthy and privileged receiving preferential treatment in the education system was supposed to end long ago in the 1950’s. Prudence Carter, in her book Keepin’ It Real: School Success Beyond Black and White shows that the great inequality still exists. She observes the relationships between gender, ethnicity, and culture as it applies to a group of low income students in Yonkers, New York. Carter’s research reveals that the work of reaching equality in education is far from finished. One…
whether or not my future husband will be able too. The trait I did is a dominant trait, As stated by Alfred Sturtevant, “If you inherited one or two copies of the dominant “tongue rolling gene” (T) allele from your parents, then you would be able to roll your tongue. If you inherited two copies of the recessive “tongue rolling gene” (t) allele instead, then you would not be able to roll your tongue.” My dad was dominant over my mom for tongue rolling their for both my brothers and I received…
Throughout history, the stigma that surrounds Black people has become a dominant discourse that specifically racialized Black males, today. There are specific traits that are associated with Blackness and understood to be represented by public views. Williams Rose (2002) argues, As the color white is associated with everything good ….so Blacks has, through the ages, carried associations with all that is bad and low…… the Negro is believed to be stupid immoral, diseased, lazy, incompetent, and…
primary labour market tend to have economic returns lower than the first generation, creating disparity of opportunity and decrease the chances of meaningfully interacting and integrating with the dominant society (Lenard 2011). Some may argue the effects of immigration are profoundly negative on the dominant population as well as the immigrant groups. Many countries all over the globe are becoming increasingly protectionist as a backlash to…
(David Crystal). This quote from David Crystal expresses how much is English dominant and it could to the term Linguistic Imperialism.
