A typical 10-year-old may be in any stage that Piagetian has developed. There are three main stages. First in the pre-operational‚ second is the concrete operational and the third stage is formal operational. To determine what stage the 10-year-old is in‚ I would conduct two tasks. The first is the conservation of liquid quantity task. In this task I would pour equal amounts of water into two of the same glasses and make sure the child agrees that the water is the same amount in both glasses. Then

Unlike the ICD 10 book‚ which has codes for diagnoses‚ diseases‚ and conditions‚ the CPT book is used to code procedures and diagnostics. The CPT manual is broken into 3 different sections; section 1 contains codes for procedures that are commonly done and have been FDA approved‚ section 2 are considered tracking codes within clinics and hospitals‚ and section 3 codes are used as temporary codes for new and developing procedures that aren’t FDA approved yet. When coding with the CPT book‚ you again

and plays. But what happens when modern day directors and 16th century Shakespear clash? You get "10 Things I Hate About You". 10 Things is basically a modern day cliche romance where boy meets girl‚ boy and girl fall in love‚ something comes between them and in the end they reunite. Add a few Shakespear-ish names‚ a few Shakespear quotes‚ and you get "10 Things I Hate About You". Now I’m not saying "10 Things" is a bad movie‚ but its a much weaker‚ tamer version of "Taming of The Shrew". They share

Background Research Yeast are eukaryotic microorganisms just like other organisms‚ they must respire in order to survive. Respiration can be defined as the controlled release of energy from organic compounds to form adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The type of respiration that occurs is called aerobic respiration. It occurs when glucose and oxygen are present. It can be summarized by the equation: . Enzymes play a very significant part in respiration. During the different stages of respiration‚ enzymes

Determining the equilibrium constant from pH values of changing concentrations of ethanoic acid Design Research question: How will altering the concentrations of ethanoic acid affect the pH value‚ and‚ in-turn‚ the equilibrium constant? Background information: When weak acids react‚ the reaction typically does not go to completion. Rather‚ the system goes to an intermediate state in which the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal. Such a system is said to be in chemical equilibrium
