Experiment 1: Mechanism of Nitrile Oxide and Alkene Cycloaddition 1. Purpose: to clarify the mechanism for the cycloaddition reaction between benzonitrile oxide and an alkene‚ and to test the regiochemistry of the reaction between benzonitrile oxide and styrene. 2. Plan: Each student in a group of three will work to create a reaction with the Benzonitrile Oxide with‚ cis-stilbene‚ trans-stilbene‚ or styrene in an Erlenmyer flask. With this Reaction solution thin layer chromatography will be

DISCUSS THE ROLE OF NEURAL AND HORMONAL MECHANISMS IN HUMAN AGGRESSION Neurotransmitters are chemicals that enable impulses within the brain to be transmitted from one area of the brain to another. Serotonin is thought to reduce aggression by inhibiting responses to emotional stimuli that might otherwise lead to an aggressive response. Low serotonin in the brain has been associated with an increased susceptibility to impulsive behaviour‚ aggression and even violent suicide. A meta-analysis found

Enzymology‚ Catalytic Mechanism‚ Carbohydrate Metabolism‚ Adenosine Triphosphate Enzymes are proteins and their function is to act as catalysts to speed up certain chemical reactions in the cell that would be slower without them. This process occurs as steps in a cycle with separate reactions in each step. If there is a missing product the step in the cycle will be incomplete and the normal function of the organism cannot be accomplished causing negative effects on the organism. The biological

Artikel: A conceptual framework for the design of organizational control mechanisms Problem: When a team of individuals produce a single output the problem arises on how to contribute the reward so that every individual is equally rewarded. This article examines three different mechanisms to deal with this issue: 1. Markets Markets deals with the control problem through precise measurement and reward of individual contributions. 2. Bureaucrats Bureaucrats rely on a mixture of close
