inputs‚ outputs‚ and internal states. There are two types of sequential circuits. Their classification depends on the timing of their signals: * Synchronous sequential circuits - This type of system uses storage elements called flip-flops that are employed to change their binary value only at discrete instants of time. Sequential circuits have a clock signal as one of their inputs. All state transitions in such circuits occur only when the clock value is either 0 or 1 or happen at the rising

CHEMICAL SIGNALS MAINTAIN HOMEOSTASIS Endocrine System: a system of glands that secrete hormones to regulate body function Hormones: chemical messengers or regulators • they are released by cells in one part of the body and affect cells in other parts of the body to speed up or slow down processes. Endocrine Hormones – are produced in glands and secreted directly into the blood and distributed by the circulatory system. Makes hormones and regulates the pituitary gland Pineal gland (makes serotonin

The structure and function of biological membranes‚ in particular the variety of cell signal transduction paradigms and the biochemistry of hormones. The structure‚ function and replication of the cell’s genetic material. This information is reviewed in a series of lectures on DNA‚ the genetic code‚ protein synthesis and aspects of molecular

respond to changes via the excretion of specific chemicals known as hormones. The endocrine system is one of the body’s two major communication systems‚ the nervous system being the other. Communication within the nervous system is rapid‚ while the signals sent by the endocrine system may have much longer delays and last for much greater lengths of time. The endocrine system consists of all those glands termed endocrine glands‚ which secrete hormones. Hormones are chemical messengers that enter the

00 Comparing The Red Room And The Signal Man I am going to write my essay on two very good short stories. The Red Room by H.G Wells and the Signal man by Charles Dickens. I am going to explain how the author progressively builds tension and suspense. The authors use different techniques such as the use of light‚ darkness and colour. The techniques that they use create moods and feelings towards the characters and rooms. The Signalman‚ is written in the first person‚ set in an old cutting

Essay over In Harm’s Way By Doug Stanton | Would captain Mcvay still be alive today if he hadn’t been convicted of failing to zigzag or sending out a distress signal? Would his life have been different? This essay will concentrate on what took place aboard the ship and the continuing debate on the guilt of Captain Charles Butler Mcvay III in the tragedy of the sinking of the USS Indianapolis. Mcvay was descended from a long line of navy men. He attended the Naval War College and completed
