westerners. Elif Shafak is a Turkish novelist born in Strasbourg‚ France who is the most widely read female writer in Turkey. Her books have been translated into more than twenty-five languages. Ch. N. Adichie in her talk warns that if we hear only a single story about another person or country‚ we risk a critical misunderstanding. Things are not usually just black and white and we have to make every effort to open our minds and explore what is real. Elif Shafak talks about the danger into which writers

routine that the father worked while the mother stayed home to care for the children and the household. In this era‚ there are some extenuating circumstances where parents cannot totally commit to monitoring their children. They may be forced into single parenting‚ they may be required to work more than one job‚ or they may have too many children which would render them unable to properly supervise the child that needs the most supervision. On some occasions‚ these unsupervised adolescents may turn

The cell membrane of these organisms can extend into a trumpet shape‚ as on the left‚ or be retracted into a ball shape‚ as on the right. As an example of single cells‚ and their flexible membranes‚ consider the Stentors shown in Figure 1.11. Stentors are single cells that live their whole lives as independent beings‚ roaming ponds and streams and sweeping food

One thing in my life that I had to dive into doing was being a single parent. I no longer had just myself to worry about and to take care of; I was going to have another person to be responsible for. I had a mixture of feelings when I found out I was pregnant. I did not know if his dad was going to be around or not to help me. I was worried‚ nervous‚ scared and excited all at the same time. I was not working at the time‚ so I had very little money and his father only paid child support when

Abstract “Reaction Time” is the interval of time between the application of a stimulus and the detection of a response and has been thought to differ based upon the effects of modality and warning signals. In the “Reaction Time” experiment a total of 24 students from the University of Cincinnati participated in an experiment consisting of two sensory modalities‚ audition and vision‚ which were combined with two levels of warning signal status. The two levels of warning signal status were signal

REACTIONS OF HYDROCARBONS Vanessa P. Manibpel De La Salle University - Dasmariñas ABSTRACT Five substances namely Hexane‚ Eugenol‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 1‚ Unknown hydrocarbon 2‚ and Acetylene gas was used for the selective reactivity of hydrocarbons to functional group tests; Bayer’s test‚ Bromine test light‚ Bromine test dark‚ and Tollen’s test. In Bayer’s test‚ only Acetylene‚ Eugenol and Unknown hydrocarbon 2 reacted positively and the rest retain the purplish color of KMnO4. On the other hand

Redox Reactions Reactions involving oxidation and reduction processes are very important in our everyday world. They make batteries work and cause metals to corrode (or help to prevent their corrosion). They enable us to obtain heat by burning fuels--in factories and in our bodies. Many redox reactions are complex. However‚ combustion and synthesis (from elements) are two ordinary examples which require very little description. Just a little more involved are the displacement reactions‚ with

The experiments had one participant who participated in a total of 6 experiments; two experiments required a simple reaction with a single stimulus and 4 experiments that required a more complicated reaction.

RATE OF REACTIONS. The reaction rate (rate of reaction) or speed of reaction for a reactant or product in a particular reaction is intuitively defined as how fast or slow a reaction takes place. For example‚ the oxidative rusting of iron under the atmosphere is a slow reaction that can take many years‚ but the combustion of cellulose in a fire is a reaction that takes place in fractions of a second (right). Chemical kinetics is the part of physical chemistry that studies reaction rates. The concepts
