Analysis: Mozart Symphony no.40 in G minor K.550 (1788), first movement There are more questions surrounding Mozart's final three symphonies nos. 39, 40, and 41 or "Jupiter" than answers. Mozart’s Symphony in G minor, K550 “is one of the greatest final trilogies that Mozart composed and the process of composing this piece lasted from six to eight weeks during the summer of 1788”(Heninger, 2003, p.1) Firstly, it was written for “strings, flutes, oboes and bassoons. It is then revised to give…
1. Making up a new word. 2. Explaining the meaning of the SL expression in lieu of translating it. 3. Preserving the SL term intact. 4. Opting for a word in the TL which seems similar to or has the same "relevance" as the SL term. Defining culture-bound terms (CBTs) as the terms which "refer to concepts, institutions and personnel which are specific to the SL culture" (p.2), Harvey (2000:2-6) puts forward the following four major techniques for translating CBTs: Functional Equivalence: It means…
that leads to cell determination and cell differentiation (Jablonka & Raz, 2009). Narrowly defined, epigenetics refers to the scientific approach concerned with changes in the cell’s transcriptional potential through DNA-methylation, chromatin modulation and non-coding RNAs related gene silencing. Epigenetics could give us clues to solve some long-standing mysteries that go beyond boundaries of genetics, such as cellular identity,…

As the brain grows in size its functioning improves and at a later age (old age) it also deteriotes.MRI…
No movie is more famous for creating a world of wonder than the Wizard of Oz. Beyond the 124 little people and it’s ten leading roles, this film broke the mold of how children’s stories could be adapted onto the big screen. The Wizard of Oz truly inspired fantasy and excitement in its era. Some believe that its inspiration was through the recent children’s novels that had been successfully adapted into Disney movies. Some of the original producers actually believed that the audience might reject…
I. Question: Do polyphenols prevent dementia? II. Introduction: As the elderly population continues to grow, dementia is becoming more prevalent around the world today.1-3 According to Alzheimer’s Disease International, the number of dementia cases is expected to increase from 47 million in 2015 to 135 million by 2050.1 Currently, there is no cure or effective therapies available for dementia. However, vast scientific literature provides significant evidence that addressing modifiable risk…
alter the cognitive, behavioural, physiological and psychological experiences of an emotion and subsequently change the current situation or cause a new situation to develop (Andover & Morris, 2014). Some people employ adaptive emotional response modulation techniques, whereas others use maladaptive responses, such as NSSI to cope with negative emotional experiences (Jazaieri H, Urry HL, Gross, 2013). This may be an area where therapy can help teach individuals to alter their emotional responses…
antipsychotic show significant differences in their effects on NMDA, glutamatergic, and AMPA receptors elucidating possible explanations for the absence of EPS in atypical antipsychotic symptoms. In an analysis observing the possible gene expression modulation in NMDA and AMPA receptors suggests that each antipsychotic has a different effect than typical/conventional antipsychotics…
Both the propulsion technique of the manual wheelchair user and the wheelchair design and setup have major effects on the biomechanics of the user-wheelchair system. Despite major improvements in technology, propulsion technique is still not very well understood. It can stated, however, that three basic qualities of the user-wheelchair system determine the performance: the user, who produces the energy for propulsion, the vehicle mechanics of the wheelchair, which determine power requirements to…
What exactly is jazz? According to Virgil Thomson, the American critic and composer, “Jazz, in brief, is a compound of (a) the fox-trot rhythm, and (b) a syncopated melody over this rhythm” [1]. An understanding of the elements of jazz allows the listeners to further appreciate the very art that has defined American culture for generations. Critical to the development of jazz are African and European music, brought by the foreigners who sought a better life in the New World and who were sold to…
