The interactions with the taste receptor cells will produce an action potential that will induce an action potential in taste sensory neurons. A neuron has 3 main parts: the dendrite, the cell body, and the axon. Information will be able to move faster in bigger and myelinated axons. In sensory neurons, the action potential is trigger at the dendrite. Each neuron has a cell membrane that encloses each neuron. The cell membrane is semi-permeable…

The civil rights museum is magnificent. I love the fact the museum preserved the outside exactly the way it looked in April, 1968. There were cars parked in front of the motel to give a feel as if we were there on the day of his assassination and a wreath was placed where Dr. King was shot. When we got inside the museum there were posted scenes of slavery from the time it began to the time it ended. The museum was very organized with heavy security. In today’s society, I guess having enough…

In America the woman in the 1970,s were almost never respected and always limited from being a mother at home as well as their workplace. Woman never had a chance from the start. They were expected to get married in their early 20s and devote her time and energy to running the household. Woman basically had one purpose be the keeper of her kids or her husband. Woman devoted most of their time taking of the kids and spent around 55 hours a week cleaning the house and whatever else she needed to…

1. In the above case, Mary Smith is suing Lending Store, Inc. for being fired without any form of explanation. Mary Smith can argue that she has been decimated and the company has violated the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972. Under the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972, “the right of all employees and job applicants (1) to be treated without discrimination and (2) to be able to sue employees if they are discriminated against” Cheeseman, 2007, p. 428). Mary Smith can argue that…

While arbitration has many procedural problems, delay is not one of them, since most arbitration cases are heard within 10 days after the request. 17. World War II increased the popularity of arbitration since many union and management officials realized that uninterrupted wartime production was essential. 18. The "repeat player" situation favors the individual employee. 19. Arbitrators heavily weigh offers of a compromise grievance settlement before the arbitration hearing since this…

The early twentieth century was marked as one of most prosperous eras in American history where the American economy had risen to become one of the wealthiest on the planet. While the rapid expansion of American capitalism led to profound wealth for many in the ruling class, the unjust treatment of workers and labor unions demonstrated the limits of prosperity during 1910s and 1920s. With the lack of government support and intervention, American workers and unions witnessed some of the most…

He states that African Americans need to put aside there frustration with things that whites have done in the past and whites need to stop getting upset about things lik affirmative action. Once we do this we can turn our attention to common enemies and focus on ways to make out country better. Beth Virnig’s “A Matter of Race: Early-Versus Late-Stage Cancer Diagnosis” discusses the inequalities between whites and African Americans…

concentrated on certain areas. This caused competition between Chinese and Mexican workers, and Anglo-American and African-American workers in the West. In the North, the rivalry was between the “Old immigration” groups, which included British, and Irish workers, and the “New immigration” group, which included Italians, Poles, and Greeks. The Migrant workers from the “New immigration” workers replaced many of the “Old immigration” workers because they accepted lower wages. Although the…

passive channels. Once the sensory receptors have detected a stimulus, the graded potentials open up sodium chemical gates which cause sodium to enter the cell but, for an action potential to occur the graded potential must reach a certain threshold (-55mv). Once the graded potential reaches its threshold it can now turn into an action potential, the voltage-gated sodium channels open up, and the inside of the cell becomes highly positive due to all of the voltage-gated…

After astrocytes remove glutamate from the ECS, glutamate must be isolated and degraded. Glutamate transporters are bidirectional, so intracellular elevations of glutamate levels will lead to an electrochemical gradient-mediated release if the molecule is not destroyed. If glutamate release is unregulated glutamate accumulates in the ECS and impairs the survival of neurons. Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) helps degrade glutamate into a-ketoglutarate, an intermediary in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA)…
