Bakke believed that this program denied him of his constitutional rights and when he brought his case to the California Supreme Court, the court ruled in favor of Bakke and he was awarded entrance to the school. Dworkin argues that Bakke was wrong in believing his constitutional rights were denied by the affirmative action program on the basis that America has become a racially…

Neuronal regeneration is a high energy demanding process however, with maturation, axonal mitochondria transport progressively declines. Mitochondria are cellular powerhouses that supply ATP; essential for neuron growth, survival, and regeneration. Motile mitochondria can become stationary and in mature axons of the central nervous system (CNS), the majority of the mitochondria become stationary with only about 20-30% remaining motile. With this reduction in mitochondrial transport, mature CNS…

The majority of nerves cells that make up the nervous system are excitable cells, as they have the ability to produce an electric current to formrom an action potential from using a concentration gradient of ions across their membrane (Sherwood, 2013). The current generated by the flow of sodium (〖Na〗^+) and potassium ( K^+)ions is called an action potential and occurs in three steps: depolarization, repolarization, and hyperpolarization. First, a membrane potential 〖(V〗_m) is established by…

First off, these strikes can frustrate the public and make them dislike you and possibly leave. Secondly, there…
