one drug can reduce the effect of another (or of an endogenous mediator) is known as reversible competitive antagonism. Atropine is such an antagonist‚ which acts non-selectively at muscarinic receptors. Reversible competitive antagonism is a form of receptor block by which a substance selectively binds to a particular type of receptor without eliciting a response‚ in such a way that also prevents

INTRODUCTION Philippines are known for its beautiful scenery and friendly people‚ it is known as well for its delicious food. Among these foods is what we called “kakanin”‚ a native delicacy that are serves as desserts. Parties and celebrations seem not perfect without these Filipino desserts. What is more interesting about them is that they vary from one area to another in terms of ingredients. Another thing is that a lot of Filipino or the senior citizens know how to to make desserts as they

of these materials will usually be of great importance. Soils are permeable (water may flow through them) because they consist not only of solid particles‚ but a network of interconnected pores. The degree to which soils are permeable depends upon a number of factors‚ such as soil type‚ grain size distribution and soil history. This degree of permeability is characterized by the coefficient of permeability. A number of different methods for determining the coefficient of permeability for soils

Quadratic equation In elementary algebra‚ a quadratic equation (from the Latin quadratus for "square") is any equation having the form where x represents an unknown‚ and a‚ b‚ and c represent known numbers such that a is not equal to 0. If a = 0‚ then the equation is linear‚ not quadratic. The numbers a‚ b‚ and c are the coefficients of the equation‚ and may be distinguished by calling them‚ the quadratic coefficient‚ the linear coefficient and the constant or free

systems of linear equations Systems of linear equations are a collection of linear equations that are related by having one solution‚ no solution or many solutions. A solution is the point of intersection between the two or more lines that are described by the linear equation. Consider the following equations: x + 2y = 3 and 2x – y = -4. These equations are an example of a 2x2 system due to the two unknown variables (x and y) it has. In one of the patterns‚ by multiplying the coefficient of the y variable

that has an absolute zero measurement for time. Under what circumstances is the median or mode a better measure of central tendency than the mean? Explain your response. (1 point) -The median is resistant‚ family income of a county or state is usually a better measure of central tendency than the mean family income. -Because a relatively small number of individuals have extremely high incomes‚ using the mean would make it appear that the “average” person makes more money than is actually the

Error Analysis: Force constant in springs Maria Loraine Menorca National Institute of Physics‚ University of the Philippines Diliman‚ Quezon City lorainemnrc@gmail.com Abstract This experiment aims to fully understand the analysis of possible errors in the measurement of the force constants in different spring systems. Springs can be utilized to store and release energy. According to Hooke’s Law‚ the response of a spring to external forces is characterized by the equation F = -kΔx. In this experiment

TWO-VARIABLE INEQUALITY MAT 221 Joseph Oslakovic February 16‚ 2014 TWO-VARIABLE INEQUALITY This week we are learning about two-variable inequalities as they pertain to algebraic expressions. The inequality can be graphed to show the values included in and excluded from a given range of numbers. Solving for inequalities such as these is a critical skill in many trades which can save or cost a company a lot of time and money. Ozark Furniture Company can obtain at
