The dermis may have a small amount of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and neutrophils, but it should not have a large amount of these cells, for it is not…

FBI Agents portrayed in the media In a survey I conducted in English class, I asked my classmates what they thought of when they heard the word “FBI Agents.” Some responses I received were mainly television shows: “Criminal Minds,” “NCIS,” and “Men in Black” (even though it’s a movie).

Monosaccharides are reducing sugars because they either have a free aldehyde or ketone group. Most disaccharides are typically reducing sugars, though there are exceptions, like sucrose. This was seen in the lab as there was no color change, indicating sucrose was not a reducing sugar. This was as well expected since sucrose does not have a free carbonyl group and cannot convert to the open-chain form (Rizzo, 2015). Lactose is also another disaccharide, but one that should be a reducing sugar,…

colloidal system. Association colloids are micro heterogeneous system, here the particles of the colloidal dispersed phase formed agglomeration of molecules or ions of the substance dissolved in the dispersion medium. Amphiphile or surface active agents are characterized by two distinct region of opposing affinities with the same molecule or ion. When the liquid medium present at low concentration, the amphiphiles exist separately and the size to be subcolloidal. As a concentration increased the…

Current theories of the role of financial intermediaries are built on the failure in the financial market. Five the main theories explain why financial intermediaries exist: Delegated monitoring, information production, liquidity transformation, consumption smoothing and commitment mechanisms. One of these five main theories concerns the ability of financial intermediaries in producing information. The expression “asymmetric information” refers to the imperfect distribution of the information.…
