flow and that is otherwise known as viscosity. This a concept that people would call thickness of a liquid. It makes sense that the thicker the liquid the viscosity would be greater. Viscosity describes the friction of a moving liquid. A liquid with high viscosity resists motion due to the fact its molecular composition gives it a lot of friction inside. A fluid with lower viscosity flows with ease because its molecular composition has very little friction when it is flowing. In between the…

The agency theory (Jensen, 1976) is a presumption that explains the relationship between principals and agents in business. The agent represents the principal in a business transaction and is expected to represent the best interests of the principal without regard for self-interest. An agency relationship is fiduciary in nature, and the actions and words of an agent exchanged with a third party bind the principal. Agency theory is concerned with resolving problems that can exist in agency…

cause tooth decay (Charles-Azure, 2005). Dental erosion is mainly caused in children since they consume these drinks continuously. Another cause for dental erosion is the consumption of citrus fruits. Drinks such as lemonade and orange juice contain high acidic levels that cause dental erosion and tooth decay (British Dental Journal, 2006). Other cause of dental erosion include the consumption of alcohol, poor saliva flow, bulimia, frequent use of medication, grinding of the teeth, and…

other factors that may affect this influx of unsatisfactory diseases and diagnoses. It has been hypothesized that an excessive fructose intake has a significant role in the sweeping epidemic of cardiorenal disease. There has also been further evidence that fructose can cause cardiorenal disease by its distinct ability to provoke an increase in uric acid. High-fructose corn syrup was introduced in America around the 1970s. It was perceived to have had certain advantages over table sugar with…

class watched on Friday, King Corn, obtained this theory and ideas. King corn was a very informational and educational program that showed how corn in Iowa was grown, sold and manufactured. According to King Corn, a majority Iowa’s economy generates from capitalism. Private owned land owners produce their own income and make their own profit according to the amount of land used for growing their crop. Considering corn is remotely easy to manage, obtaining…

large amount of sugar in one sitting are signs of sugar-addictions. (Dignan and Porter). The Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics states, “The rapidly increasing rates of obesity, combined with the high failure rates of obesity treatment, has led to the hypothesis that ultra-processed foods (often high in sugar) may be capable of triggering an addictive process” (Gearhardt, Roberts and Ashe 46). When determining a sugar-addiction one needs to be honest with themselves, no different than,…

this problem is. We can find obesity within young people and children. The question is: “What are the causes of this and is it too late for solving this problem?” Obesity is one of the poor health causes. A lot of children in middle school and in high school are obese. Almost every teacher will say this: “Parents are buying what the kids want, rather than what may be healthy for them” (fourth-grade teacher 1). We can say that their parents are responsible for their children’s health but the…

related problems due to sugar (sucrose) would be things such as diabetes, osteoporosis, and even obesity. First of all, sucrose also known as sugar but also is known as common table sugar which is a molecule composed of two monosaccharides glucose and fructose. Sucrose is found in all plants, most of fruit, and vegetables. It has a chemical formula which is C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁. Sucrose also known as sugar was discovered by western Europeans and first used by men in Polynesia year 510 BC. Sugar has been…

They go on to say that sugar has a high calories content that give your body energy that you lack. Did you also know that sugars glycolic acid can be very helpful in maintain the health and look of your skin? (Sugar history n.d.). You also get minerals and nutrients from which the sugar…

kind of cereals from the Clifton Natural Foods store than the kinds I have been consuming for a long time, which are Kellogg’s corn flakes and honey nut Cheerios. It is called Honey Nut Toasty O’s.
