(Intro. To Operating Systems) Assignment: CSC 334 A – Project 1 Jae Hyung Chang Before I began on what type of “Operating System” I’ve researched I’ll start by explaining what an operating system is. An operating system is a collection of software that manages computer hardware resources and provides common services for computer programs. The operating system is a vital component of the system software in a computer system. Application programs usually require an operating system to function also

prescription system have kept many patients in safe keeping in the past history‚ and continues to save lives today. Started in the 1900 prescriptions were invented‚ this was the start where people were able to go to their doctors‚ and the doctors would prescribe the right drug needed for the patient’s condition. The prescription system is great because‚ it helps patients take the right medicine‚ and they are able to find out the condition of the patient (Robert 1). Some want to get rid of this system‚ due

The Origin of the Solar System A cloud of interstellar gas and/or dust (the "solar nebula") is disturbed and collapses under its own gravity. The disturbance could be‚ for example‚ the shock wave from a nearby supernova. As the cloud collapses‚ it heats up and compresses in the center. It heats enough for the dust to vaporize. The initial collapse is supposed to take less than 100‚000 years. The center compresses enough to become a protostar and the rest of the gas orbits/flows around it

The major functions of the urianry system are produces urine‚ stores urine‚and elimintes urine. The organs of the urinary system work to help the body get rid of wastes and excess water in the form of urine. Other urinary system organs help transport urine or store urine and release it when it is time. The organs of the urinary system include the two kidneys‚ two ureters‚ a urinary‚ bladder‚ sphincter‚ and the urethra. The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs‚ each about the size of a fist. They

THE SOLAR SYSTEM T The Solar System consists of the Sun and the astronomical objects gravitationally bound in orbit around it‚ all of which formed from the collapse of a giant molecular cloud approximately 4.6 billion years ago. The vast majority of the system’s mass (well over 99%) is in the Sun. Of the many objects that orbit the Sun‚ most of the mass is contained within eight relatively solitary planets whose orbits are almost circular and lie within a nearly flat disc called the ecliptic

The Solar System The solar system still to this day one of the most fascinating subjects of study in the science world. In our time‚ we are one of the first generations to see the planets of our solar system up close‚ and we have been able to view evolution of these planets through time. Our solar system consists of a middle aged star called the Sun‚ 9 planets‚ about 100 moons‚ thousands of asteroids‚ millions of icy bodies‚ and many comets revolving around all of it. We can begin by looking

Function of the Skeletal System 1. Support 2. Movement: The bones of the upper and lower limbs pull and push‚ with the help of muscles. 3 storage as a mineral store. 97% of the body’s calcium is stored in bone. Here it is easily available and turns over fast. In pregnancy the demands of the fetus for calcium require a suitable diet and after menopause hormonal control of calcium levels may be impaired: calcium leaches out leaving brittle osteoporotic bones. 4.

The Integumentary System plays an important role in the function of the human body. This system has a major protective function in which it protects from the invasion of infectious organisms inside the body. Also‚ this system helps the body to prevent dehydration and it prevent the change of temperature abruptly. This system consist of the biggest organ in the body which is the skin.This organ helps protect from microbes and other elements. It acts as a physical barrier to the environment and it

Nervous System- Nerve Impulse When a stimulus is strong enough‚ a nerve impulse is generated in an "all or none" response which means that a stimulus strong enough to generate a nerve impulse has been given. The stimulus triggers chemical and electrical changes in the neuron. Before an impulse is received‚ a resting neuron is polarized with different charges on either side of the cell membrane. The exterior of the cell is positively charged with a larger number of sodium ions present compared
