the point that the woman has acquired symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The Battered Woman Syndrome is a sub-category of PTSD‚ in which the victim has developed a dissociation condition that does not allow them to assess the pain and abuse that they are encountering from their spouse. The dissociation causes them to feel the pain and torment from their partner but makes them feel guilty for being “bad” and allows them to accept the abuse therefore making them return to the abusive

LOCATING TETRAHEDRAL AND OCTAHEDRAL VOIDS The close packed structures have both octahedral and tetrahedral voids. In a ccp structure‚ there is 1 octahedral void in the centre of the body and 12 octahedral void on the edges. Each one of which is common to four other unit cells. Thus‚ in cubic close packed structure. Octahedral voids in the centre of the cube =1 Effective number of octahedral voids located at the 12 edge of = 12 × 1/4 = 3 ∴ Total number of octahedral voids = 4

Upon hearing about the requirements for this assignment I was puzzled on what to write about. I sought the advice of my peers and mentors‚ yet all of their answers tended to be somewhat the same. Every disorder that was given to me as an example seemed to be that of a common disorder that most people know about or would be familiar with such as schizophrenia or anxiety disorders and the like. What I found more difficult was to think of a disorder that isn’t well known and hasn’t been broadcasted

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Psychologists and psychiatrists have been studying the mind for centuries to understand its complexities and how it functions. In the pursuit for answers‚ these experts of the mind have uncovered many different oddities and malfunctions that are commonly referred to today as psychological disorders. Within this classification of psychological disorders‚ researchers have developed a subsection of afflictions that have come to be known as the major anxiety disorders.

Metallobiomolecules METALLOBIOMOLECULES CONTENTS 1. Introduction Metallobiomolecules 2. Classification Metallobiomolecules 2.1. Transport and of to Storage Proteins 2.2. Oxygen binding Today scientists try to explore the chemistry basis behind the biological processes. As a result of this‚ new areas have evolved such as bioinorganic chemistry and bioorganic chemistry. In this section we will talk about an important concept in bioinorganic chemistry called “Metallobiomolecules”. Metallobiomolecules

The main idea for my short story began with a very simplistic and basic colour idea which led to the slow development of two main characters named Red and Blue. The idea flourished from the very basic idea to a slightly more complex one when the idea that Red would be colourless and unidentified in his world. Red was clear and transparent and weakly searching for a colour and was not able to feel complete until he met Blue. With Blue he grew to have slight tinges of colour‚ and it made him feel strong

Chemistry 121 Experiment 19 Molar Mass Determination y Depression of the Freezing Point Introduction: The most commonly used liquid is water. In this experiment we study the equilibria that can exist between pure water and an aqueous solution‚ and ice‚ the solid form of water. The heat will transfer from a higher temperature to a lower temperature. In order for water to change states of matter‚ it takes a certain amount of kinetic energy or heat. The shift from ice to water (solid to a liquid)
