    In Augustine being able to define the act of free will‚ helps him be able to define the origin of evil. Augustine was firm on the belief that there was only one God whose goodness was infinite. The question that always came up was‚ “how‚ then‚ can one explain the existence of evil?” He believed that God created will‚ and therefore its good‚ but will is still able to make its own decisions. It’s good for will to be free even though this could possibly create evil. Augustine answer to the question

    living cells have a cell membrane and it is probably the most important organelle of a cell. The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid‚ proteins and carbohydrates. The phospholipids are arranged in a bilayer with the hydrophilic ends facing out and the hydrophobic ends facing the inside of bilayer. Membranes can contain phospholipids with different fatty acids which affects the strength and flexibility of the membrane. There are two different proteins in cell membranes. One is a protein that

    NEWTON’S SECOND LAW OF MOTION METHODOLOGY In Part A of the experiment (Constant Mass‚ Changing Net Force)‚ place the dynamics track on the laboratory table. Make sure that it is horizontal by placing the dynamics cart on the track. If the dynamics cart does not move‚ then the track is already horizontal. Otherwise‚ make the necessary adjustments. Get the mass of the dynamics cart. Write this under m1 in Table 1. Set the first photogate at the 20-cm mark of the dynamics track and the second photogate

    Newton’s 2nd Law Lab Introduction: The purpose of this lab was to prove Newton’s 2nd Law; which states accelerate equals force divided by mass (a=F/m). During this lab we were trying to find out the relationship between acceleration‚ force‚ and mass by using a air track‚ glider with picket fence‚ and photogates. Before I did the lab‚ I had already knew that acceleration‚ force‚ and mass were related. I just didn’t know how they were related. When recording the results of this lab we had to record

    understanding on how osmosis and diffusion works. In its simplicity‚ it explains the process that our bodies (mainly cells) use all the time. It also showed me that even with the temperature changing‚ it doesn’t drastically change the rate of diffusion. Introduction Diffusion is important in all living systems. Osmosis is the passage of water from a region of high water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane to a region of low water concentration (Purchon 1). Diffusion is the movement

    What is consumption smoothing? How does insurance help people smooth consumption? When consumption goes from a period of high consumption to a period of low consumption. For example‚ if a person does not save money at all while they work in order to live a high maintenance lifestyle then they suddenly get laid off‚ they must greatly reduce their consumption because they can no longer support their lifestyle. Insurance helps people smooth consumption because it helps them defend against unexpected

    13 THE MEMBRANES OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF CELLS ARE INVOLVED IN MANY DIFFERENT FUNCTIONS – 25 MARKS Membranes are found in all organisms‚ around and within cells. They control the movements in and out of cells‚ as well as protecting cells. They also allow different functions to occur. They have the same basic structure called the plasma membrane. All plasma membranes‚ around or inside cells have a same phospholipid bilayer structure. Phospholipids contribute to the flexibility of membranes and transfer
