Hypothesis

biological level of analysis suggests that genetics and biochemistry are a part of the cause of major depressive disorder. Joseph Schildkraut’s catecholamine hypothesis (1965) supports the notion that major depressive disorder is associated with low levels of noradrenaline. The catecholamine hypothesis was later developed into “the serotonin hypothesis” and was based on the idea that serotonin is the neurotransmitter responsible for causing major depressive disorder. Researchers have tried to…

Throughout history, 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…

financial and social strains. Researchers propose that this stress may be related to the onset of schizophrenia. Two theories attempt to pinpoint the specific relationship between stress and schizophrenia: the sociogenic hypothesis and the social selection theory. The sociogenic hypothesis predicts that stress resulting from low SES may indeed be what causes or influences the development of the disorder. The social selection theory, however, states that the inability to work and obtain a stable…

The lawful hypothesis or statute that is considered for this situation range from the detachment of forces as sketched out in the thought of leniency. There is additionally the hypothesis of normal law as clarified by Justice Foster. Components of positivism, the philosophical relationship in the middle of law and ethical quality together with elucidation of statutes (the uncovering of "holes" in the statutes and the need to fill them) are additionally present. Notwithstanding these we have the…

methionine and homocysteine are linked with another neurologic disease although the evaluation of this fact in persons with autism is underway. Hypothesis The purpose of the study aims at evaluating plasma concentrations of metabolites present…

The serotonergic hypothesis, proposed by Mayeux and colleagues, interprets the overall reduction of serotonin in PD as a physiological compensatory mechanism for the reduced availability of striatal dopamine increasing risk factor for depression 31,32 33. The dopaminergic hypothesis of Fibiger is based on the fact that not only the nigrostriatal, but also the mesocortical and mesolimbic dopaminergic…

Skeletal remains from Lofkënd, Corinth, Epidamnus, and Apollonia were examined to determine if the null hypothesis of changes in physical activity levels, as evidenced by osteoarthritis in human skeletons is correct. This research will test the null hypothesis that physical activity levels, as evidenced by osteoarthritis in human skeletons, remained constant at Epidamnus, and Apollonia, Albania during Greek colonial expansion (620 BCE-229 BCE). The assemblages for each site was first divided…

chordates. Pharyngeal slits they share with chordates. Hemichordates are the sister taxon to echinoderms as described by Ambulacraria hypothesis, then gill slits are an ancestral feature for deuterostomes. These gill slits are supposedly lost in in lineage but some researchers have found evidence for gill slits in extinct carpoid echinoderms. The Ambulacraria hypothesis unites echinoderms and hemichordates on the basis of a shared diffuse epidermal nervous system. It’s therefore unlikely that…

The focus of this paper was an exercise designed to observe and explore nonverbal communication. In order to observe nonverbal communication, my husband and I went to eat dinner on a Saturday night at a local Applebee’s restaurant. We chose this restaurant because our daughter works there as a waitress and we could ask to sit in her section. I was not sure how a waiter/waitress who was not known to me would react to my observing and taking notes about my fellow diners. If the waiter/waitress had…
