together in certain parts of your body. In this activity you will investigate the distribution and sensitivity of the touch receptors in the human body. Procedure 1. Obtain 8 large paperclips‚ a ruler‚ and masking tape. 2. Bend paperclip to form a “U” or “V” shape so the ends are 1/2 centimeter apart. 3. Put masking tape across the “legs” of the paperclip to maintain the end distance of your caliper. Label the paperclip end distance on masking tape 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to make calipers

does each of these formulas mean‚ and how are the formulas derived? p + q 1: If you add all the dominant alleles for a gene to all the recessive alleles for the gene‚ you get all of the alleles for that gene‚ or 100% of the alleles for the gene. (Note: This assumes the gene has only two alleles.) p2 + 2pq + q2 1: If you combine all the individuals that are homozygous dominant for a gene with all the heterozygotes and homozygous recessive individuals for that gene‚ you have counted or combined

point and recent studies have shown that about 4% of children aged 5-16 in the UK are affected by depression.3 It is a known fact that people living in Britain today now 10 times more likely to suffer from major depression than in the 1940’s. 4 Scientific studies have also found that numerous brain areas show altered activity in depressed patients and that is why it has not been possible to determine a single cause of depression.5 Majority of people forget that depression is a real illness with real
