From the very moment that we are conceived‚ our brain continues to grow each and everyday until it reaches its desired adult size. This sustained period of growth plays a pivotal role in jump-starting cognitive development‚ which is the development of thinking‚ problem solving‚ and memory. There was a time that people believed young children and adults had alike thought processes. However‚ Swiss-born clinical psychologist‚ Jean Piaget reversed this notion by theorizing that there are four separate

Developmental Delay Definition Developmental delay is defined as a significant delay in the process of development. Without intervention these delays will affect normal development. Areas of delays include language‚ perception‚ cognitive‚ social‚ emotional‚ or motor development. Developmental delay refers only to children between the ages of 0 and 8 years. (Education and early childhood development‚ n.d.)The definitions in each state must be wide enough to include all disability categories to be

Types of species 1. Endemic species Endemism is the ecological state of a species being unique to a defined geographic location‚ such as an island‚ nation‚ country or other defined zone‚ or habitat type; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. they are only found in certain locations‚ they require special conservation efforts Animal examples: Lemurs of Madagascar‚ tortoises of the Galapagos‚ polar bears‚ koalas‚ kangaroos.

The Ted Talk video entitled “Animations of Unseeable Biology” describes the process of DNA replication. As the speaker Drew Berry explains‚ this process is repeatedly occurring and is performed mechanically. He provides us an animation of how a chromosome is replicated and split with the help of microtubules. Microtubules are straight tubes that are made up of proteins and it resides within a cell. This hollow tube allows the mitosis phase to occur. The copying of DNA is transported across the microtubules

Advanced Cell Biology II Step 1: How will you identify the “vital” cellular protein that the virus targets for degradation? (Hint: think proteomics). (3 pts.) First‚ since we know the viral RNA sequence and its targeting protein‚ we can investigate it in bioinformatics database‚ and can acquire some clues or hints about the target proteins. From the bioinformatics database‚ we might be able to find its structure‚ similarity with other proteins‚ functions‚ and binding domains. In other words
