Serial transmission and parallel transmission? Answer: Digital data transmission can occur in two basic modes: serial or parallel. Data within a computer system is transmitted via parallel mode on buses with the width of the parallel bus matched to the word size of the computer system. Data between computer systems is usually transmitted in bit serial mode . Consequently‚ it is necessary to make a parallel-to-serial conversion at a computer interface when sending data from a computer system into

Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant of the methylxanthine class. It is one of the most worldwide consumed psychoactive substances and it is totally legal. The chemical name of caffeine is 1‚ 3‚ 7 – Trimethylpurine – 2‚ 6‚ - dione. Its molecular formula is C8H10N4O2 and it has a molecular mass of 194.19 g/mole. Caffeine is an odourless‚ white crystalline purine‚ a methylxanthine alkaloid‚ which is closely chemically related to adenine and guanine. Caffeine acts through multiple mechanisms

Forensic Psychologists are an important part in the justice system. They evaluate whether defendants are fit to stand trial and whether they were in sound mind at the time they carried out said wrongdoings. At times‚ authorities may likewise request that they survey the psychological well-being of detainees on death row. Prisoners who are insane can’t be executed. In every criminal trial‚ it’s up to the jury to choose quilt or innocence. Still‚ a psychologists’ evaluation can affect the result of

cavities. Body membranes are made up of epithelial and connective tissue layer. Mucous membrane cover openings that are exposed to the outside world. For example‚ mucous membrane is present in the nose‚ respiratory tract‚ male and female reproductive systems‚ stomach and intestines. Epithelium of mucous membrane is attached to lamina propria‚ a loose connective tissue layer that stabilizes the epithelium in place. Goblet cells in the epithelium make mucus which is a liquid that protects the mucous membrane

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) consists of three main anatomical divisions: sympathetic‚ parasympathetic and enteric nervous systems. The sympathetic (SNS) and parasympathetic (PNS) systems provide a link between the central nervous system and peripheral organs. The sympathetic nervous system originates in the spinal cord. Specifically‚ the cell bodies of the first neuron (the preganglionic neuron) are located in the thoracic and lumbar spinal cord. Axons from these neurons project to a

The building blocks of our body ’ s neural information system are neurons. Each neuron is composed of dendrites‚ a cell body‚ axon with myelin sheath‚ and vesicles with neurotransmitters. The neuron receives information from sense receptors or from chemical messages from neighboring neurons via its dendrites‚ which pass the information to the cell body. The cell body fires an impulse‚ called the action potential‚ down the axon. The impulse is protected and sped along its way by the myelin sheath

The Relationship Between The Nervous System and The Endocrine System The cells and tissues in the body are delicate and easily disrupted. They will only be able to function well if all aspects of their chemical and physical environment is continuously adjusted to keep them stable and in equilibrium. The process in which several body systems work together to maintain the balanced environment is called homeostasis. The endocrine and nervous system work closely together to help maintain homeostasis
