countable set is given‚ any other set which can be put into a one-to-one correspondence with is also countable. Countably infinite sets have cardinal number aleph-0. While on the other hand‚ continuously infinite numbers‚ also known as continuum hypothesis‚ proved by the German mathematician Georg Cantor‚ states that there is no infinite set with a cardinal number between that of the "small" infinite set of integers and the "large" infinite set of real numbers (the "continuum").

Discuss the role of negative feedback in living organisms and how it benefits these living organisms? (25 marks) Negative feedback is the process by which changes occur to bring an organism’s internal environment back to the normal level. One example of negative feedback in a living organism is the ways humans regulate their blood glucose levels. I will firstly discuss the processes that occur as a result of blood glucose levels being too low. When blood glucose levels are too low the pancreas

Hypothesis Contrary to Fact Since the first man walked this earth‚ we have been trying to understand why everything is the way it is. Why do things work the way they do? What happens if you put this with that? Humans have always been determined to learn and understand everything they can. As a result‚ the knowledge that beings have acquired and the patterns in subjects have come to be facts. These facts show the definite ways that objects‚ persons‚ and events function. After studying‚ one can

what extent the ‘somatic-marker hypothesis’ explains how decisions are made in the face of an uncertain outcome. In mind of Kim Sterelny’s (2007) statement that ‘Human Life is one long decision tree’‚ it is not surprising that there has been a vast amount of research into the process of how we evaluate the desirability of alternative choices and select a particular option. One area of research‚ of particular interest here‚ is Damasio’s Somatic Marker Hypothesis (SMH) (1991) which uses the neuroeconomic

Efficient market hypothesis (EMH)‚ first promulgated by Eugene F. Fama (1970)‚ suggests that financial markets price assets precisely at their intrinsic worth given all publicly available information. Though several empirical works strongly confirm market efficiency‚ some of the hypotheses do not agree with the efficient market hypothesis‚ such as behavior finance hypothesis. This essay will discuss the assumption of efficient market hypothesis and implications when these assumptions do not hold

economics and quantitative analysis use many of the same tools of technical analysis‚ which‚ being an aspect of active management‚ stands in contradiction to much of modern portfolio theory. The efficacy of both technical and analysis is disputed by efficient-market hypothesis which states that stock market prices are essentially unpredictable. HISTORICAL VIEW The principles of technical analysis are derived from hundreds of years of financial markets data. Some aspects of technical analysis began to appear in Joseph
