    expression? There are two main parts of gene expression to answer that question. The first part is methyl groups, which consist of hydrocarbon molecules. These methyl groups will bind to areas on the gene to determine whether or not it should be expressed. The methyl groups are like an on-or-off switch. Histones are the second part, and they are proteins that your DNA winds around in order to pack closely in small spaces. The histones are able to change how tightly the DNA is coiled around them,…

    Krater depicts a unified scene, yet one figure, the older man, is on Side B, whereas the rest of the picture is on Side A. This geographic split in the scene does not align with any of Stansbury-O’Donnell categorizations, and thus presents a major grey area in the taxonomy. In that vein, Stansbury-O’Donnell, in generally remarking on narrative, wrote that “most narrative pictures are single panels…” This Krater is clearly an exception to that generalization and thus again adds to the…

    play caused this ending. There were many ways for the play to end and it also depended on the choices the characters make. In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the title characters make impulsive decisions from the moment they are introduced to the audience. For example, during the first moments of meeting in Act I, both Romeo and Juliet profess their love for each other and Juliet even claims, in seeking out Romeo’s identity, that “If he is married, My grave is like to be my wedding bed”…

    little bit ironic, nevertheless I remain invisible. I am a very introspective person, consequently, I overthink a lot about what everyone around me might think of me, what they’ll say before they even speak, and how they might judge me at any waking moment. On the contrary, I have come to realize that people aren’t just waking bodies of massive information and unique experiences that’ll judge me at every given turn but people that I share a common trait with: humanity, which is more than enough…

Moments before the train hit me I switched the track, the oncoming train scraped the side of my train, once again I had saved the day, but still with no trace of D-O-G. I returned home once again, but this time disappointed, I couldn’t believe that I let him slip away a second time. I had a feeling, that next time I would catch him. I returned to my lookout on the roof, there was…

    going to end. Still screaming, I finally open my eyes. I can see people on the ground. Some of them are laughing at me, some of them are giving me disapproving looks. Do I care what they think? Of course I don’t. The only thing I cared about in that moment was putting my two feet back on the ground.

    at the table. As soon as I saw them I made my way to the area with the rolls, meat and cheeses. I made three rolls with various fillings and strolled back to my table. I consumed the rolls within minutes taking a sip of water after every few bites this was partially due to the fact that I was stress eating. After everyone had eaten Mr Latta made an announcement to meet at the main entrance at 8am ready to leave for skiing. This was the moment that it all had hit me, the beautiful scenery, and…
