sentence was supported by nonexistent source, questioning study reliability and credibility • Comparison of Australian and American BMI, without taking into account cultural differences • Hypothesis do not predict the outcome of the study and multiple unnecessary secondary hypothesis (can be compacted) • Hypothesis written as questions. • Aim is poorly written The information in the introduction provides justification for research to be conducted however, the very first sentence expresses…
I hypothesized that segment one, the part containing the head and mouth, would be the most susceptible to such stimulation. The results of my experiment support my hypothesis. The reason why segment one is the most sensitive is because earthworms don’t have eyes so they need to use mechano and photoreceptors to perceive light and touch this is known as dermal light sensitivity. Dermal sensitivity is also the reason why…
Proposed research: Aims and Objectives: Aim1: To address the roles of the Hira complex in rRNA transcription and embryonic development Aim2: To characterise rDNA chromatin organisation in the oocyte Aim3: To elucidate the transcriptional machinery of RNA Polymerase I in the oocyte Experimental Approach: Aim1: To address the roles of the Hira complex in rRNA transcription and embryonic development The Hira histone chaperone complex is an evolutionarily conserved complex, which is composed of…
virus (ZIKV) was reported in South and Central America and the Caribbean’s as well. The principal concern associated with this viral infection is the increased incidences of microcephaly in fetuses born to mothers infected with ZIKV. As a result, World Health Organization has declared it a pandemic that is affecting many lives. This paper will examine what the virus is in detail, by looking at its signs and symptoms, and second it will look at its potential complication that is related to the…
level shows as transcript per million (TPM) and the highest isoforms expressed in brain (blue) is ENST00000453943, heart (orange) is ENST00000312726 and liver (green) is ENST00000391865. The sashimi plot shows the quantitative visualisation of the RNA-seq read alignment of brain, heart and liver together with the gene expression shows in FPKM value (Figure 4.12C). The junctions show by the arcs that align from one exon to another exon. The visualisation of read alignment with the gene model on…
It is well known that all organisms require at least some water to survive, even the most hardy creature on the planet earth, the tardigrade, Hypsibius dujardini, which can survive near complete dehydration, exposure to extreme radiation, vacuum, temperature and pressure, must be rejuvenated with water if it is to resume life after near complete desiccation (Gabriel, et al. 2007). H. dujardini, famous for surviving some of the harshest conditions of any organism we know of, is a perfect example…
Figure 5: Semi-quantitative PCR analysis of CHOP splicing variants in plasmids and liver tissues, and CHOP exon arrangements. (A) CHOP1 mRNA contains four exons, whereas CHOP2 mRNA lacks the second exon of CHOP1. The 5 '-leader of CHOP is encoded within the first and second exons, while the coding sequence is encoded within the third and fourth exons of CHOP. (B) As expected, CHOP1 primers amplified CHOP1 transcripts at the size of 214 bp in the CHOP1 plasmid template containing the full…
feelings into account. For example, I have had to select certain types of language depending on the role that I am in at that moment. When I worked as a server this past year I made sure to always use very polite language, because in the restaurant world “the guest is always right.” But at the same time, when I have to send an email to a higher authority than myself such as an employer or a professor, I tend to use powerful language, as this type of language is much more professional and lacks…
In bioturbation literature, it is often assumed that microbially-mediated processes have been affected by bioturbation, with no analysis of the microbial community (Kristensen, 1984, Kristensen, 1985, Kristensen and Blackburn, 1987, Gilbert et al., 1998, Christensen et al., 2000, Michaud et al., 2006, Bonaglia et al., 2014). For example, variations in microbial nutrient remineralisation (Renz and Forster, 2013), and declines in sediment functioning under reduced pH conditions (Widdicombe and…
versions of the null hypothesis? The three versions of the null hypothesis are: (1) “the observed difference was created by sampling error”, (2) “there is no true difference between the two groups” and (3) “the true difference between the two groups is zero.” (Barker, 56-57) 2. Is the null hypothesis typically stated in social scientific research? Why/why not? The null hypothesis is not usually stated in social scientific research. Researchers rarely state the null hypothesis in their academic…
