In the second separation of this experiment, the Erlenmeyer flask with the first filtrate was put into a beaker so the filtrate was in the beaker. The beaker was then heated on a hotplate until near boiling. After the whey protein had precipitated, a vacuum filter was used to filter out the whey. These proteins were then air-dried. A qualitative test was done to indicate that the sample extracted was the protein whey. Again, a small test tube was used and 2 mL of protein test solution was put in the tube. Five drops of 10% NaOH and 2 drops of 0.5% CuSO4 were added to this tube. If a purple color showed, it would indicate there was protein in the test tube.…
They were a way to please the crowd of their competitors. Like the Romans, the Hunger Games introduce the tributes with a parade of chariots, each with their own representation. The spectators were able to determine who they would cheer on to win. In The Hunger Games, this was a way to appease them for their support. Sponsors were then able to contribute to the tributes indirectly through contribution towards victory. Every little thing counts, from the Games to the supporters to the district tributes.…

One of the most interesting facets of the ancient Greek religion was the hero cult. A hero in this time was considered to be greater than a human but less than a god. The hero cult essentially united a group of unrelated people in a kin-like manner, which in turn made the bond between these individuals even stronger. The archeological evidence for the hero cult begins around the second half of the 8th century BC (Seaford, 109). On an unrelated note, the term polis in ancient Greece was defined to be the body of citizens, which is why polis is often translated to city-state. The interesting fact concerning these two is that the polis first emerged in the Archaic period, which…
Ancient Rome is recognized as being the forefront of technological innovations and efficiency improvement. The Pont du Gard aqueduct is no less than an impressive engineering feat, stretching for miles to deliver water to town centers. Roman architectural features, such as arches and domes, still remain a prominent presence in modern architecture, proving just how timeless, and more importantly, functional these inventions are. However, one notable difference between the two societies is that unlike Ancient Rome's approach to technological adoption through the appropriation of foreign territories, the United States gained its technological edge through development and research. From the invention of electricity and automobiles to computers,…
In Greek religion and mythology, Pan (Ancient Greek: Πᾶν, Pān) is the god of the wild, shepherds and flocks, nature of mountain wilds, hunting and rustic music, and companion of the nymphs.[1] His name originates within the Ancient Greek language, from the word paein (πάειν), meaning "to pasture."[2] He has the hindquarters, legs, and horns of a goat, in the same manner as a faun or satyr. With his homeland in rustic Arcadia, he is recognized as the god of fields, groves, and wooded glens; because of this, Pan is connected to fertility and the season of spring. The ancient Greeks also considered Pan to be the god of theatrical criticism.[3]…
The plea bargaining process is very important to the criminal justice system because without it the criminal justice system would grind to a halt. Plea-bargaining is important because if every case went to a trial it would take years for criminals to get from the time of arrest till the time of trial. The video we saw showed an example of how the process works to get criminals who plea guilty to committing minor crimes through the system faster so that the courts can concentrate on those criminals who commit major crimes. In this video you can see some of the variables that enter into the plea-bargaining system and how they can be fair and unfair to the parties involved. You can see the quality of legal representation…

The passage of 1 Corinthians 11:2-16 has caused great division in the church. What is the word “head” suppose to mean in this context?Are women to wear head covers? In what way is the head of man Christ? And why does Paul go into detail on creation? These are all questions that anyone might ask concerning this passage. From a personal examination, I would have to say that I agree with the main point of the complimentary perspective. In the body of Christ, gender differences assign males to a hierarchal authoritative position. That being said, the two sexes have different roles with the body of Christ. [1]So while the male may have the leading position, in no way is he superior in essence. At the same time though, all of the obligations given to women through this passage should be for everybody. Just like women shouldn’t dress in a way which leads men to stumble, men should be mindful of how they dress as well. In this case, I would be taking the Egalitarian position, arguing that this passage is for everyone to be mindful of how they reflect themselves, and their family.…
