At both types of nozzles the energy from the liquid pressure is converted into kinetic energy and a small part of it into

development can be illustrated in the studies of twins. Flanagan (2002) explored the Minnesota study in which a set of twins was raised separately. In one case‚ a set of identical twins was raised apart‚ known as the Jim twins. They did not meet until they were almost forty and had many similarities even though they were raised apart. There was no real explanation for all their similarities except that nature must play a crucial role in development. "The Minnesota twin study concluded that on multiple measures

Twins often have similar characteristics that go beyond physical appearance. What would happen if a set of twins grew up apart; would their characteristics change based on their surroundings or would their genes keep them alike? The question is‚ "What is it that makes us who we really are: our life experiences or our DNA?" (npr.org) Scientists have done many studies on twins to see just how much DNA affects personalities. Even though most adoption agencies try to keep siblings together it is

Navajo tale "Changing Woman and the Hero Twins after the Emergence of the People" is a perfect example of archetype (model) in ancient‚ and not so ancient‚ mythology. Containing within the story of its pages the repetitive use of a numerical value‚ a father god and sons of the father god‚ and heroes who must overcome dramatic obstacles while obtaining help from outside sources‚ "Changing Woman and the Hero Twins" places itself among a rich history of similar myths and folklore from around the

contributions of hereditary and environment is twin studies. Mz twins share 100% of genes and DZ twin’s share 50%. The rationale is to establish the contribution of inheritance and environment. If MZ twins reared together are more alike then DZ twins reared together then this is due to genetics (e.g. alcoholism). This degree of similarity between twins is expressed as a high concordance rate. Twin studies of IQ and schizophrenia show higher concordance rates for MZ twins – suggesting a genetic influence.

was “Two what?” “Two babies!” That was the way I found out I was having twins two days before they were born. My fascination with twins began long before that moment but it was after that I began looking for any information I could find. I wanted to learn everything I could about why twins happen‚ what complications from a premature birth may cause and other things that only those who are twins can tell. Identical twins are a scientific and medical mystery. While much research has been conducted
