luster. Four processes are thought to be responsible for virtually all of the natural diamonds that have been found at or near Earth ’s surface. One of these processes accounts for nearly 100% of all diamonds that have ever been mined. The remaining three are insignificant sources of commercial diamonds. The first process is diamond formation in Earth ’s mantle. Geologists believe that diamonds were formed in the mantle and delivered to the surface by deep volcanic eruptions. These eruptions produce

1. Most sociologists interpret social life from one of three major theoretical frameworks: symbolic interactionism‚ functional analysis‚ or conflict theory. Each theory focuses on a different perspective which‚ in turn‚ provides three distinct interpretations of human behavior. The main concept of symbolic interactionism is that “symbols-things to which we attach meaning-are the key to understanding how we view the world and communicate with one another”. Symbolic interactionism focuses on face-to-face

The three major sociological perspectives‚ functionalism‚ conflict theory‚ and interactionism‚ are perception lenses which Sociologists utilize to answer the two basic questions in building theory; what issues should we study? And how should the facts be linked? Essentially‚ each perspective conceptualizes and analyzes how society influences people as well as how people can influence society. Functionalism or structural-functionalism is sociological perspective that analyzes society on a macro level

3.5 Heel horn erosions Heel horn erosion is seen as a change in the form of the exterior of the bulb of the heel (Greenough 2016). Heel horn erosion is not always the cause of lameness‚ with the true incidence being unknown (Greenough 2016). However‚ it is suggested that if dairy cows are exposed to copious slurry‚ the incidence of heel erosion quickly reaches 100%. In some dairy cows‚ heel horn erosion advances to a point at which complications develop and lameness may be apparent (Greenough 2016)

A soil horizon is a layer parallel to the soil surface‚ whose physical characteristics differ from the layers above and beneath. Each soil type has at least one‚ usually three or four horizons. Horizons are defined in most cases by obvious physical features‚ chiefly colour and texture. These may be described both in absolute terms (particle size distribution for texture‚ for instance) and in terms relative to the surrounding material‚ i.e. ‘coarser’ or ‘sandier’ than the horizons above and below
