Aim: To investigate the effect of skin sensitivity in response to cold temperature in different parts of the body by timing the maximum amount of time in which ice-pack can be held to that area. Hypothesis: If the layer of skin is relatively thin‚ the nerve response to cold will be the fastest‚ increasing the skin’s sensitivity. This therefore means that the fastest responses to cold will be in the face‚ and specifically the nose. The skin consists of 3 main layers; the epidermis‚ dermis and

Microbiology is a field of science which typically is divided into several areas such as: bacteriology‚ virology‚ parasitology and immunology. The goal of microbiology is to increase the specific knowledge of a known microorganism and by extension counter the spread of harmful microorganisms and to learn practical applications of research results. A microbiologist studies the structure‚ metabolism‚ genetics and ecology of microorganisms such as bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi or algae. A microbiologist

Block 5 Skin Sensitivity Lab Hypothesis: The fingertips will be the most sensitive because they are used the most for touching things all of the time. The area that will be the least sensitive is the shins because we are constantly bumping into things with our shins so they need to be less sensitive to pain.

Enterococcus Faecalis Sensitivity Towards Ampicillin‚ Penicillin‚ and Tetracycline Introduction Enterococci are bacteria that are included in the intestinal flora of humans and are relatively harmless. One method Enterococci maintain a symbiotic relationship is by hydrolyzing esculin in the presence of bile (Susan L. Fraser‚ 2012). However Enterococci are in the top three-nosocomial infections. When infected‚ enterococci can cause numerous infections such as urinary tract infection coupled with

Microbiology is involved in many aspects of human daily life. The food eaten to the showerheads in the bathroom contain thousands of microbes. Microbiology is evident in our lives and it is reported through various media. News reports have articles about microbes just like a recent article from Times Magazine titled Overcoming Obesity by Alex Park. Park featured article is about the problem of obesity in America and how different scientists are thinking of new manners to combat this epidemic

Through the research facilities at the university‚ I cultivate bacteria and observe what harms or benefits the different species are. For years‚ I focused my research on society’s effect on bacteria’s natural development. The issue I bring to you today demands a shift in perception of bacteria and antibiotics‚ a paradigm shift.

A DEVELOPMENTAL MODEL * OF INTERCULTURAL SENSITIVITY Milton J. Bennett‚ M.D. I. DENIAL OF DIFFERENCE The inability to construe cultural difference. Indicated by benign stereotyping (wellmeant but ignorant or naive observations) and superficial statements of tolerance. May sometimes be accompanied by attribution of deficiency in intelligence or personality to culturally deviant behavior. Tendency to dehumanize outsiders. 1.
