Inversión

fighters from both sides of the war “made everything and everybody as good as new” (74). By seeing the movie in this way, Vonnegut highlights how truly merciless humans are towards each other during war. He uses the incongruity theory to put an inversion on the accepted plot line of a typical war movie. In doing this, the reader is able to get humor out of how ridiculous humans are during war, especially when considering the effects of war if it were to be inverted. Vonnegut also conveys how…

Role Reversal of the Macbeths William Shakespeare’s Macbeth chronicles the ambition of its two main characters, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. Their lust for power drives them to tyranny, manipulation, and murder. Their ambition also drives them into arrogance, madness, and death. Lady Macbeth is one of the most powerful female characters in literature. The Macbeths’ marriage, while to the public might seem normal, is anything but that. In public Macbeth is known as a fierce, courageous hero, and…

CHYMOTRYPSIN CATALYSIS Sarkis Hamalian ABSTRACT To examine the enzyme kinetics of chymotrypsin during the catalysis of the synthetic substrate p-nitrophenyl acetate (NPA). Initially, observe the magnitude of the initial burst with regards to the enzyme concentration. Secondly, the analysis of the steady state deacylation rate with regards to the pH of the reaction mixture. Chymotrypsin catalysis is a process that proceeds with two steps, an initial fast step involving the covalent modification…

Enzymes are important substances made by the cells of plants and animals. There are called catalysts, which are substances that control how quickly chemical reactions occur without interfering at the reaction products (Daja and Treska 2015). Structure of both the enzyme and substrate, the substance on which an enzyme acts; provides clues as to how an anticipated reaction can be favored by the alignment of catalytic residues (Johnson 2008). The reaction of an enzyme is represented as: In…

it is. His entire argument hinges on the ability of the crowd to see his logic and agree with it. He is unable to realize that some people may have ill intentions, his greatest weakness, and gives Antony the chance to speak. Antony, in a complete inversion, does not let the crowd make their own decision. Through manipulation and cleverly used rhetoric, Antony deftly leads the crowd to the conclusion that the conspirators were wrong in their actions. He uses his strength of subliminally proving…

the principles and values attributed to Utopia, with paradox that “nobody owns anything but everyone is rich” to demonstrate high regard for spiritual values in the accumulation “cheerfulness, peace of mind and freedom of anxiety”. Furthermore, inversion on the worth of gold and jewellery in Utopia ridicules their value in English society, as “gold chains and fetters weigh down their slaves and jewellery as toys for children”. This exaggerates the worthlessness of gold and accentuates the high…

calls “a feminism of Shakespeare’s time”?” The second question; “does literature and social practice of early modern period exhibit, as Stephen Greenblatt and Natalie Zemon Davis suggest, a theatricality, and ready embrace of role playing and social inversion, that nonetheless functions most often to test and strengthen traditional authority?”…

Listening Assignment 6: Melody: Phrase, Motive, Tune Noticing details in the melody, such as the phrase, motive, and tune isn’t always an easy task, but what a better way to practice and get better at it than by listening to a piece by Beethoven. Beethoven’s Symphony no. 5 in C minor, Op. 67 proved to be another masterpiece in orchestra, as many recognized it due to something known as the four-note opening motif. Listening more to it people heard the twice a descending sequence;…

The introduction of Nile tilapia and subsequent speed in production as well as enhancement of cultured species was carried out without regard for management of genetic resources. Moreover, the effect of natural disasters such as floods, typhoons, earthquakes and tsunamis on the genetics of this species is quite pronounced in Asia. Hybridization of tilapia occurs both naturally and artificially. However, artificial hybridization occurs more frequently since man is trying to improve production…

Feminists that are part of the sexual liberation movement urged women to be more sexually active and positive (hooks 148). This, again, is problematic since “it was essentially an inversion of the male notion of sexual liberation,” and the sexual liberation fails to deconstruct the power dynamics between men and women (hooks 148-149). In other words, women want sexual liberation because historically men are glorified, not shamed, in…
