Introduction Several learning disabilities exhibit symptoms that are very similar to Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD). These disorders affect sensory perception. One is Audio Processing Disorder (APD), another is Visual Processing Disorder (VPD), and the third is Sensory Processing Disorder (VPD). This paper defines these four disorders, explores commonalities among symptoms, and offers suggestions of accommodations that could help in a classroom where multiples of these…
our understanding of neurological sciences has vastly improved alongside the examination and research of C. elegans. Through their ease of accessibility, C. elegans, have become a staple organism in discovering the mechanisms in which the nervous system promotes survival (Allen et al. 2015). The C. elegans’ structural integral is very straightforward, consisting of 302 neurons, with 60 of them being sensory neurons (Pieczynski 2016). Thanks to this simplicity, we can easily observe C. elegans’…
a more traditional marketing strategy, but the difficulty brands are facing in the modern era is cutting through the noise and onslaught of advertising. Sight is a screening sense (Harrop, 2014). Smell and taste are processed through the limbic system, or “reptilian” part of the brain, while words and pictures are sorted through the cortex or rational thought portion of the mind (Harrop, 2014). Memories created by brand signatures can be detrimental to a brand. For instance, McDonalds for…
influence the developing immune system in responses from cytokine balance, to lymphocyte responses, to antibody induction (3). In utero, mammals are essentially sterile, and colonization by these microbes begins at birth, and expands throughout life as the host is exposed to foreign organisms through their environment (4). Because each person’s exposure may differ with their unique…
Muscular injuries are one of the leading injuries faced by amateur and elite athletes today (Dadebo, White, & George, 2004; Mayo, Seijas, & Alvarez, 2014; Woods, Bishop, & Jones, 2007). Before athletes even step on to the field, the court, the stage, or in front of the crowd, they have already been in the game mind set for the last hour going through their pregame routine. Pregame routines vary greatly, but almost all contain some combination of sport appropriate warm-ups and stretches. Warming…
Sensory processing is the ability to neurologically organize information our body picks up from the environment around us. Sensory information is received from the peripheral nervous system, which consist of sensations from the skin, muscles and our senses, which then transmitted to the brain. The information is then integrated and the individual has an adaptive response. An individual is composed of eight senses, which are tactile, olfactory, gustatory, visual, auditory, vestibular,…
Question 3 what makes a classic film? Answer: A classic film is the one which not only has to entertain the audience but it also has to provide the essential dimensions which as all the necessary drama, thrill and black and white photography which comes with it. The main element that determines a classic film is its test of time which means that it is supposed to pass the key of time and work universally as well as expand on the main idea which it is delivering to the audience. In order for a…
with everything around us tailored by efficacious Embedded Systems. I have a dream that one day we’ll be breathing in a much cleaner air and healthier environment owing to the marvels of Embedded Systems. I have a dream that one day the deprived and the disabled would no longer be hindered by their inadequacy to progress because of the independence instilled by the resourcefulness of Embedded Systems. I have a dream that Embedded Systems would create a brighter future for us and I, for one,…
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy The body is like one huge scale that needs constant conservation to maintain balance for a stable state of survival. Homeostasis is the component that helps the body maintain balance. There are four core principles that help homeostasis keep balance which are, feedback loops, relationship of structure and function, gradients, and cell to cell communication. “Muscular homeostasis is cell to cell communication that coordinate their functions and maintain homeostasis…
has combined over the years to advance our pursuit the discovery of new astronomical findings. One such ongoing effort is the Voyager Program. Two space probes, Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, were launched in the late 1970s to collect data about our solar system. Voyager 2 was launched from the Kennedy Space Center on August 20, 1977. Voyager 1 was also launched from the Kennedy Space Center 15 days after Voyager 2 on September 5, 1977. The reason for the seemingly backwards numbering is that they…
