deals with the motives and causes of crime‚ which has no one clear cut explanation. There are several different theories on the cause of crime such as heredity‚ gender and mental defects‚ but each one is not substantial enough to explain crime and why it takes place. The theory on heredity as being the source of crime is based on the idea that criminal activity is predisposed by human genes. Gender being the root of crime suggests that testosterone‚ the male hormone that causes aggressive behaviour is

in causing change in ecosystems (30 marks) Both human and physical factors impact upon ecosystems due to their holistic nature which means that even small changes in the human or physical environment around them can cause an exponential chain of results. However these factors can be both positive and negative to varying degrees. Some of the most obvious physical factors which cause change in ecosystems can be seen through succession; for example in the sand dune ecosystem in Talacre‚ North Wales

In the great state of Utah‚ there are many ecosystems that work together in order to create this wonderful state. Utah has many aquatic ecosystems to include: the Great Salt Lake‚ Utah Lake and the northern river otter to name a few. Utah also has the Rocky Mountains‚ which are a terrestrial type ecosystem‚ these two ecosystems are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Utah’s greatest areas. Utah is home to many gorgeous areas to explore‚ the focus of this paper will be on the Utah Lake

CAUSES OF DEFORESTATION Deforestation is the product of the interaction of the many environmental‚ social‚ economic‚ cultural‚ and political forces at work in any given region. The mix of these forces varies from decade to decade‚ and from country to country. As a consequence‚ generalizations are dangerous. In most cases‚ deforestation is a process that involves a competition amongst different land users for scarce resources‚ a process exacerbated by counter-productive policies and weak institutions

Determining Reference Ecosystems and the Historical Range of Variability Each and every year‚ trees record information within their growing rings and dendrochronology is the study of these tree-rings. Although tree-ring analysis is limited by the spatial scale of the climates where trees can grow and the temporal scale of the oldest possible age of a tree in a study area (183636 years ago)‚ it has proven to be a crucial tool in paleoclimatology and paleoecology. “To understand how ecosystems arrived at

In the years leading up the recent Euro Area sovereign debt crisis‚ there were large saving imbalances among the euro area periphery countries‚ i.e.‚ Greece‚ Portugal‚ Spain and Ireland. The periphery countries engaged in heavy borrowing from foreign private investors‚ allowing domestic spending to outpace incomes. The crisis was sparked by a loss of confidence by private investors in periphery countries’ government debt‚ causing a spike in domestic interest rates. As a result‚ these periphery

Healthcare Ecosystems There are a number of federal government programs that utilize technologies to accomplish the seamless exchange of health information. The reasoning behind this is to provide consumers with a higher quality of care. I will be discussing three such programs in order to analyze each program’s use of health informatics to include licensure‚ certification and accreditation‚ along with how each program impacts clinical quality‚ reimbursement and patient access to care.

Causes of Obesity 5.1 Energy Balance in the Development of Obesity 5. CAUSES OF OBESITY Obesity can result from a minor energy imbalance‚ which lead to a gradual but persistent weight gain over a considerable period. Some researchers have hypothesized that energy imbalance is the result of inherited metabolic characteristics; whereas others believe it is caused by poor eating and lifestyle habits‚ that is “gluttony and sloth”. Positive energy balance occurs when energy intake is greater
