According to Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species in his Principles of Biology (1864), the survival of the fittest is the struggle for life. The ability of plants to grow, flower, reproduce and ultimately survive while sharing limited available resources is a natural struggle at best. Brassica rapa is a highly diverse, rapid-cycling group of crop plants that have been used for research in genetics and hands on learning in the classroom (Williams and Curtis, 1986).…

Pannotia from Greek (Pan: all), (notos: south) which mean "all south land"(figur1). Pannotia is the second Neoproterozoic supercontinent comes after Rodinia. Which form between the periods of 600 million years ago to the end of the Precambrian. Pannotia land were distributed close the poles and very small section close the equator linking the polar mass. During earth history many supercontinents have been formed and broke up. As in the case for Pannotia formation and braking up is based on hypotheses of orogenesis and destruction of continental crust. Of course the cycle of supercontinents have effect on the earth’s evolution. This report will discuss formation, breaking up and the list of changes that happened during Pannotia supercontinent…
Do your research into different colleges before deciding on one. Make sure that they not only offer the classes you need, but also other areas of interest such as sports, music and activities on campus. Ensuring that the campus you choose is the right fit can make all of the difference in the world.…

Once an addict makes the decision to stop using a substance or engaging in a detrimental behavior, the difficult job of sticking with that decision often becomes a daily struggle. This particular stage is called recovery and is a lifelong process. Recovery is the longest stage of addiction and requires extreme behavior modification and self-control. In the late 1930s, a program was created that became the standard for nearly all recovery programs still in use today. The program was originally called Twelve Steps for Alcoholics and is now referred to as the Twelve Step Program. The origins of the Twelve Step Program are unique.…
Do not choose a college or university because it is popular, because your friends or relatives went there or because you are a fan of their football team. There are other important factors you need to take into consideration such as your funding, the kind of career you want or the area where schools are located.…
The Mental Research Institute (MRI) was founded by Jackson. He was heavily influenced by Bateson and developed the Brief Therapy Project. Nichols (2013) noted “What emerged was an elegantly brief approach based on interrupting vicious cycles that occur when attempts to solve problems only make them worse. Unlike today’s therapies, which are brief by default, the Palo Alto approach was brief by design. (p. 100).…
Once someone realizes that they have an addiction, the first step in recovery is detox. Many patients experience detox symptoms because their body is used to having drugs. Withdrawal symptoms can range from minor annoyances to severe side effects depending on the severity of the addiction. Since detox symptoms are uncomfortable, it is important to seek professional treatment during the withdrawal process.…
A study by UCLA of Spitak victims found that PTSD was more common in Armenians who carried two particular genetic abnormalities associated with depression (Healey, 2012). The study showed that women were likelier than men to experience PTSD, along with older people, people who had lost family members, and people who had experienced a traumatic even before the earthquake hit…
