A Critique of Jill Dubisch’s You Are What You Eat Before reading Jill Dubisch’s article You Are What You Eat‚ I had many presumptions regarding how Dubisch would connect the health food movement to Geertz and his definition of religion. When thinking about the supposed “premise” of religion‚ I had always believed the vague and obscure definition that religion is a set of beliefs and practices that center around a divine force. Because of my ignorance regarding religion‚ my views were incredulous

Marine mammals also breathe air‚ and must come up to the surface of the water to breathe. They have small lungs in relation to their body size compared to humans to reduce problems of nitrogen building up in the blood caused by diving. They have to make sure no water gets into the gas exchange system‚ and gas exchange must occur efficiently. Marine mammals have to be able to hold their breaths for long periods of time while they are diving. Air enters the lungs through the trachea‚ which splits into

experiment was to compare how side chains alter the ionizability of our three amino acids: alanine‚ aspartic acid‚ and cysteine. More specifically‚ we wanted to observe how a thiol group and a carboxyl group affected the ionizability of the rest of the amino acid. Because alanine contains a single methyl group on its side chain‚ we can easily compare the functional groups of aspartic acid and cysteine to it because both aspartic acid and cysteine start their side chains with a methylene group and then go

If you have ever spent any significant amount of time around a newborn‚ I am sure you will agree that you can almost see them growing right in front of your eyes. Growth spurts will be the trend throughout childhood‚ the teens and early twenties‚ but from birth to about the age of three is an unparalelled period of growth for the human child. In order to sustain this rapid growth period as well as the growth spurts that follow‚ proper nutrition is essential. Through the mid 20th century‚ as bottle

Most people think that the world faces an overpopulation problem. But Phillip Longman argues otherwise in his book The Empty Cradle. He warns instead of a global baby bust. World population growth has fallen 40 percent since the late 1960s. The human population is expected to peak at nine billion by 2070‚ and many countries will see their population shrink long before that. Japan will have 49 retirees per 100 workers as early as 2005. Falling birthrates mainly account for these declines. Several

Protein biosynthesis is the process by which biological cells generate new proteins; it is balanced by the loss of cellular proteins via degradation or export. Translation‚ the assembly of proteins by ribosomes‚ is an essential part of the biosynthetic pathway‚ along with generation of messenger RNA (mRNA)‚ aminoacylation of transfer RNA (tRNA)‚ co-translational transport‚ and post-translational modification. Protein biosynthesis is strictly regulated at multiple steps‚ and error-checking mechanisms
