near shore annual ice over the continental shelf where biological productivity is highest. However, to a large degree under scenarios predicted by climate change models, these preferred sea ice habitats will be substantially altered. Spatial and temporal sea ice changes will lead to shifts in trophic interactions involving polar bears through reduced availability and abundance of their main prey: seals. In the short term, climatic warming may improve bear and seal habitats in higher latitudes…

It receives and sends signals to other parts of the body. There are six main parts of the brain: the brainstem, the cerebellum, the frontal lobe, the parietal lobe, the occipital lobes, and the temporal lobes (“Part 2”). The effect of the injury depends on where it is centralized in the brain. For example, if one’s brain stem is injured, it may affect that person’s breathing, heart rate, and their ability to swallow. However, the effect of the injury…

rejected in social settings, is a powerful aversive experience. There is a growing body of literature in this area that shows ostracism to produce a number of negative short- and long-term negative consequences toward an individual’s wellbeing. The temporal need-threat model by Williams (2001) specifically explained the immediate responses of ostracism, as well as how it lead to persistent negative consequences. An individual firstly detects an immediate threat when they perceive ostracism for…

With the rising popularity of social networking websites such as Facebook, YouTube and Twitter, an increasing number of people are using these sites as tools for promoting civic engagement and collective action (Gil de Zúñiga, Jung, & Valenzuela, 2012). Recently, scholars have debated whether these are effective in facilitating civic engagement (e.g. Loader, Vromen, & Xenos, 2014), or if they merely encourage widespread slacktivism – a willingness to perform a relatively costless, token display…

J. (2013). A buffer model of memory encoding and temporal correlations in retrieval. Psychological Review, 120(1), 155-189. doi: 10.1037/a0030851. Part D 28 younger adults and 28 older adults participated in a study that examined the hypothesis that “older adults’ discrepancies in contextual memory result…

nerve pathways in a lobe or lobes of the brain are severed from other areas in order to terminate contact and improve ones mental health condition. This theory developed in 1890 when a German researcher, Friederich Golz, removed portions of his dogs’ temporal lobes and noticed a change in aggression. Noting this, Gottlieb Burkhardt, the head of a Swiss mental intuition proceeded to perform the surgery on six of his schizophrenic patients. Burkhardt killed two, however, confirmed the patients…

strategy in education. Songs such as the “ABC’s” or the “Days of the Week” song have been tools used for years to help educate children on basic subjects. Having a class sing a song like these can help with memorization of everyday knowledge. On a larger scale, students can write a song to help them learn core subjects, such as a song performed on Disney’s Hannah Montana in 2007. A song was performed explaining how each bone was connected “My body's many parts, And this is where it starts…

looking for the average person with no memory problems. If a participant answers yes to this question we will not include their results in our study. Secondly we will have each participant rate the music they listened to, if applicable. The rating scale is either, enjoyable, somewhat enjoyable, neither distracting or enjoyable, somewhat distracting, distracting. We added this question to see if whether or not they liked the music…

Thermoregulation includes all phenomena in which an organism maintains a mean or variance of body temperature that diverts from a null expectation, defined by random use of thermal microclimates and passive exchange of heat with the environment (Akin, 2011; Kemp & Krockenberger, 2002;). In Biomimicry, through studying thermoregulation, human beings can apply nature’s techniques to architecture when designing buildings. Present temperature systems are using a lot of energy, especially to…
