Long division

“NCAA Division I athletes still receive expert coaching (that could lead to a professional career as an athlete or as a coach), on-campus housing, frequent meals, non-uniform clothing, free medical consultation, free access to state-of-the-art training facilities…

Division of labor occurs when the work process is separated into a various number of tasks. Each worker or group of workers then specializes in completing a single task. It is used in mass production and is considered “one of the basic organizing principles of the assembly line. (Britannica, 2014). Specialization via division of labor has helped to eliminate the need for workers to handle multiple tools and minimized unnecessary motion. Through the repetition of simple basic tasks by…

contend that they are earning much less than the company claims. This paper will first examine Adam Smith’s theory of the division of labor in the successful business model of UberX, and then apply Marx & Engels’s perspective to the wealth gap between the company and its drivers. My argument is that the mode of operation of UberX challenges Smith’s idea of extensive division of labor leading to…

“A Nuclear North Korea and Prospects for the Korean Economy: An International Business Perspective” is written by Yoon-Shik Park, PhD & DBA Professor of International Finance, George Washington University, Washington, D.C. This paper was presented at The Joint Annual Conference 2007 of ICKS-KAUPA on Impending Changes on the Korean Peninsula and The Future of U.S.-Korean Relations. The author’s main argument is that due to the economic state of North Korea, which has been on the decline since…

Charts were created from a cumulated pool of planarian research. Dead and missing planaria were not included in the data pool. Discussion: After undergoing the regeneration process Planaria had varying responses. This study concluded that the majority of planaria retain the learning process after regeneration, this statement is especially relevant in the head regenerated planaria. Before the experiment, a hypothesis was made that the head end would retain the classical conditioning and the tail…

increased with age, correspondingly, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an age-dependent neurodegenerative disorder. Cancer is defined as a disease in which a collection of abnormal cells divides uncontrollably by ignoring the normal principles of cell division. There is known to be more than 200 types of cancers and its two main characteristics are uncontrolled growth of the cells in the human body and the ability of these cells to migrate from the original site and spread to distant sites. On the…

Stem cells are cells that have the ability to divide indefinitely in a culture and give rise to specialized cells. They can be harvested from human embryos and it is therein the controversy lies. The morality of the process is called into question because there is a divide between people who think that life begins at fertilization and people who think that life begins at birth. This paper will delve into the details of embryonic stem cell research as well as argue that, while some disagreement…

Scientists began to research and study stem cells when they found what they could do in salamanders; because salamanders have the ability to regenerate their tails after being ripped off, scientists thought that maybe the same regenerating tissue ( stem cells ) could be used in humans as well. This means injuries, such as fractures, can be fixed by placing these cells to the site of the injury. The stem cells build themselves up and fix the break by regeneration and multiplying; the damaged…

Imagine a world cancer free, no diabetes and heart disease, a world without Parkinson’s disease. The Parkinson’s Disease Foundation estimates between 1-1.5 million Americans are affected with the disease. A stem cell by definition is a cell that upon division replaces its own numbers and gives rise to cells that differentiate further into one or more specialized types. Scientists use the cells obtained from embryos to conduct the research in finding possible cures for these diseases. Therein…
