I pray every day that I do not…

Discussion The mechanism of arsenic-induced neurotoxicity is not well defined. Several metabolites of arsenic are able to pass through the blood-brain barrier and accumulate in the hippocampus and some other locations [13].

In relation to the amino acid neurotransmission, report reveal that arsenic-induced excessive glutamate accumulation in the extracellular space induces excitotoxicity [29]. Arsenic…

Introduction The reintroduction of the Mexican Gray wolf into the southwestern United States has been a subject of large controversy in the past few decades.

Both Nick and Amy put on different facades in the beginning of their relationships, but it is once they have been…

While the colonized peoples are forced to experience the true effects of colonialism firsthand, the people of the colonizing nation only experience colonialism from the periphery and only experience its positive effects. Therefore, their understanding of colonialism is shaped by the narrative created by those in power, those who reap the most benefits from the colonization of…
