A Comparative Study of Body Composition and Blood Pressure between Teaching and Non-Teaching Staff of Dibrugarh University Dr. Mantu Baro, Associate Professor Centre for studies in Physical Education and Sports Dibrugarh University, Assam Abstract: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the differences of body composition and blood pressure between the teaching and non-teaching male staff of the Dibrugarh University. The data pertaining to the study was collected from 30 teaching…
Objective (v) Seeks to estimates a supply response model for palm oil in Nigeria inclusive of price and non-price factors. In other to estimate the supply response for Nigeria palm oil production, the model of Ayanwale et al, (2011) was used, with slight modification. The supply equation is specified as a function of the production of palm oil, price of palm oil, price of competitive crop (soyabean), harvested area, rainfall in year t (mm) as climate element, interest rate, exchange rate, palm…
Hue, Saturation, and Intensity are represented as HSI in HSI colour model. The HSI model is used as an alternative to, or alongside the RGB representation. In this model, the hue of a colour is its angle measure on a colour wheel. Pure red have hue value as 0°, pure green have hue value as 120°, and pure blues have hue value as 240°. Neutral colours like white, grey, and black are set to hue value 0° for feasibility. Intensity is total brightness of the colour and also defined numerically as the…
First we will provide some information about Malta and the uninhabited islands before discussing the instruments and the multi-criteria analysis. Malta’s land area is 316 square kilometres. The three biggest uninhabited islands are: Malta, Gozo and Comino, but there are way more. St Paul’s Island (0,101 km2), Cominotto (0,099 km2), Halfa Rock (two meters above sea-level), Old Battery’s Rock, Lantern Point Rock (height of 7 meters), Large Blue Lagoon Rock, Small Blue Lagoon Rocks, Devil’s End…
Morphological analysis was devised by a Swedish astrophysicist, Fritz Zwicky, who devised a structured method for investigating into many possible relationships of complex problems. It combines many methods which may have similar structures to breakdown a system , process or product into essential sub-parts, each part representing a dimension in a multi-dimensional matrix. Morphological analysis brings together two components such as dimensions and options of dimensions. These dimensions and…
FeTiP or Fe(Ti+Nb)P precipitates were observed in each sample, while much more incidence was that of the precipitates with niobium as without it. Precipitates without niobium FeTiP were observed only in 5 samples, in a ratio of 8:1,the Fe(Ti+Nb)P being the one with greater values. Oval shapes of Fe(Ti+Nb)P were observed after recrystallization annealing at the grain bounadries and also inside the grain itself. At the grain boundary in the sample with a lower coiling temperature of 565 °C was…
General questions: In general questions have try to collect general and demographic information about respondents. This section includes 4 questions (gender, age, education, and occupation). B) Specialized questions: This section contains 49 questions. In the design of this section, the questions of the questionnaire have been as comprehensible as possible. To design this section, a five-choice Likert spectrum has been used, which is one of the most commonly measure scales. The general form and…
In Willems et al’s study of proprioception deficits among athletes with high rates of recurring lateral ankle sprains, they found that almost all of their subjects tended to under shoot the needed ankle during the test (Willems et al., 2002). In this study they had 4 groups of athletes to study. The control group were individuals who had no prior ankle injuries (Willems et al., 2002). The Instability group were individuals that had suffered from more than three inversion sprains and complained…
The Stroop effect by John Ridley was done in the year of (1935). The experiment tested the interference in serial verbal reactions. Frank H Durgin (2000) suggested that the Stroop effect was a way to prove that humans cannot multitask. Durgin also states that habit and strength are not responsible for the delay in reaction time. The processing speed theory states that there is an interference when a participant names black inked colors and when they name colors that are printed in different…
Summary: Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that activates different dopamine receptors throughout the central nervous system. As mostly invertebrates have been studied in the past, the researchers wanted to focus on vertebrates in this study in order to determine the evolutionary patterns of these receptors. Five dopamine receptor genes were studied in five different mammals, and it was discovered that genes that are expressed more broadly have slower evolutionary rates than genes that are…
