societies are separated by geographical distance and time they still have a similar sense of what is funny. In his plays Plautus employs irony‚ asides‚ and physical humor to create comedic moments. Plautus was able to create humorous scenes through the use of both situational and dramatic irony. The audience being aware of what is truly happening allows for them to find the

Enzymes lower the amount of energy needed in a chemical reaction. This happens because enzymes are catalysts‚ so they speed up the activation rates that occur in living organisms. Without enzymes‚ it would be difficult to break down particles like food in the digestion system. Enzymes are all very specific to what chemical reactions they will work with‚ and the temperature‚ pH‚ and salt concentration have to be a specific levels in order for the enzyme to function. The structure of each enzyme has

reactants. The reaction rate is slower when the reactants are large and complex molecules because it takes longer for the molecules to combine together creating a chemical reaction. More than 2000 years ago‚ Democritus‚ who was a philosopher from Greece suggested that matter is made up of tiny particles too small to be seen. He thought that if you kept cutting a substance into smaller and smaller pieces‚ you would eventually come to the smallest possible particles. The rate of a chemical reaction

With close reference to pages 183-186 analyse Salinger’s use of language and structure‚ exploring Holden’s contradictory view of the world. On Page 183 Holden says ‘you could tell the two hot- shots I was with weren’t enjoying it too much. They stayed close as hell to me‚ and the one that didn’t talk at all practically was holding onto my sleeve’. Holden calls them ‘hot shots’ because they acted phony by bunking school and then lying about there being no school. (P182). Throughout the novel‚ Holden

which can have an effect on the process of photosynthesis; in this laboratory experiment‚ the focus lies on carbon dioxide (CO2) availably and its effect on photosynthesis. By understanding the component that affect the rate of photosynthesis‚ one can do work to try and increase the rate of photosynthesis. The purpose of this laboratory experiment was to determine which solution would have the highest impact on oxygen production within the aquatic plant‚ Elodea densa (Brazilian Waterweed).

iced water (10 degrees) had the slowest rate of reaction at 1.10 minutes. Then the room temperature water (19 degrees) was tested and had a slightly better rate of reaction at 1.09 minutes. Then last of all‚ we tested the boiling water (63 degrees) which had a large improvement from the last two with a rate of reaction of 43.5 seconds. This showing development in the rate of reaction in all three experiments and that the higher the temperature the faster the rate of reaction is. The results were precise

will affect it’s rate. The rate of diffusion will vary depending on the size of the particle. For example‚ a smaller particle will move faster than a large molecule at a given temperature . During reactions‚ when there is more energy‚ the reaction will take place at a faster rate. An increase in temperature will result in and increase in the amount of energy available‚ therefore the particle will move faster and the rate of diffusion will increase. Another factor affecting the rate of diffusing is

barrier far more vast than any in existence today between two dialects. Multi-Regionalists tend to argue in favor of the Neanderthal’s capability to use language. A major genetic piece of evidence that they call upon to support their assertion is the existence of the FoxP2‚ “language”‚ gene which is prevalent in Neanderthals. Although this gene does contribute greatly to the human comprehension of language it is not significant enough to hold up speech capabilities on its own. “...FoxP2 is not unique

How has artwork transformed itself with the use of metaphors? With many different artwork pieces we have seen through museums or within our textbooks‚ most would include an underlying meaning. The underlying meaning of the artwork is depicted by the audience and how they would choose to interpret the artwork. For instance‚ in Frida Kahlo’s self-portrait piece with a thorn necklace and a dead hummingbird‚ it signifies certain objects to show her own characteristics. Aside from the hummingbird‚ which
