Pupillary Responses (CN II, III)
In an afferent pupillary defect there is a decreased direct response caused by decreased visual function in one eye. This can be demonstrated with the swinging flashlight test, in which the light is moved back and forth between the eyes every two to three seconds. The afferent pupillary defect becomes obvious when the flashlight is moved from the normal to the affected eye, and the affected pupil dilates in response to light. Under normal conditions, the pupil constricts in response to light.


The Wonder of Accommodation
If an eye has the ability to assume a focal length of 1.80 cm (56 diopters) to view objects many miles away as well as the ability to assume a 1.68 cm focal length to view an object 0.25 meters away (60 diopters), then its Power of Accommodation would be measured as 4 diopters (60 diopters - 56 diopters).


Accommodation reflex
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The accommodation reflex (or accommodation-convergence reflex) is a reflex action of the eye, in response to focusing on a near object, then looking at distant object (and vice versa), comprising coordinated changes in vergence, lens shape and pupil size (accommodation).


The Wonder of Accommodation
The eye typically rotates in its socket in order to focus images of objects at this location. The distance from the outer surface of the cornea (where the light undergoes most of its refraction) to the central portion of the fovea on the retina is approximately 2.4 cm. Light entering the cornea must produce an image with a distance of 2.4 cm from its outer edge.


accommodation
Accommodation from this state to the near point of accommodation would be the response to parasympathetic stimulation; and accommodation from this state to the far point of accommodation would be the response to sympathetic stimulation.


Total Knee Replacement Surgery
In a total knee replacement, the ends of the femur and tibia are replaced with a combination of plastic and metal components. These components are attached to the bones, but not to each other. Existing ligaments and muscles are used to maintain joint stability between the components just as they did before the prosthesis.

Psychological Disorders
The DSM. Psychologists and psychiatrists use a reference book called the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) to diagnose psychological disorders. The American Psychiatric Association published the first version of the DSM in 1952. It has been revised several times, and the newest version is commonly referred to as the DSM-IV.

Flight controls: How an airplane is controlled.
For example, control-stop mechanisms may be incorporated into the flight controls, or movement of the control column and/or rudder pedals may be limited. The purpose of these design limits is to prevent the pilot from inadvertently overcontrolling and overstressing the aircraft during normal maneuvers.n aerodynamic terms, the mathematical measure of an airplaneâs tendency to rotate about its center of gravity is called a âmoment.â A moment is said to be equal to the product of the force applied and the distance at which the force is applied.

Proper acceleration is not the same as coordinate acceleration (rate of change of velocity). For example, an accelerometer at rest on the surface of the Earth will measure an acceleration g= 9.81 m/s2 straight upwards.By contrast, accelerometers in free fall orbiting and accelerating due to the gravity of Earth will measure zero.Accelerometers have multiple applications in industry and science.or example, an accelerometer at rest on the surface of the Earth will measure an acceleration g= 9.81 m/s2 straight upwards.


Flight controls: How an airplane is controlled.
Movement of any of the three primary flight control surfaces changes the airflow and pressure distribution over and around the airfoil.

Weathering
region has high summer temperatures and heavy seasonal rainfall (vs humid tropics's high rainfall throughout the year), thus favour chemical weathering more than physical weathering. However, since precipitation is lower, rate of chemical weathering and regolith formation is slower.

You should be able to: 1) List and describe the processes that contribute to landform denudation. 2) Define and compare physical weathering and chemical weathering. 3) Describe some of the physical weathering processes. 4) Describe some of the chemical weathering processes.


Weathering
Chemical Weathering. breakdown of rocks by the alteration of chemical composition of the rock minerals by agents such as water, oxygen and mild acids. Can occur at great depths since it is dependent mainly on the availability of water that can infiltrate and percolate through the regolith layers.

Other types of flows are all quite similar. Generally the size of individual particles and the amount of water present is the distinguishing criteria. Frequently, the same event is referred to by more than one name.


Weathering
horizontal bedding planes in sedimentary rocks are usually dissected at right angles by sets of vertical joints.) Selective weathering occurs along these lines of weaknesses, leading to detachment of large, angular boulders. e.g.


Weathering
Van't Hoff: speed of chemical reaction increases 2.5 times with each rise of temperature of 10 degrees C. e.g. silica more soluble at higher temperature. Due to high precipitation, there is abundant soil moisture for chemical reaction to take place, allowing solution to happen. e.g. halite and calcite.

14. Creep, the slowest type of flow, is the imperceptible downslope movement of soil or rock. Creep is the most widespread of all types of mass wasting. 14.


Weathering
As origin of rock is underground,in absence of air and water, at high temperatures and pressure, most weathering occurs as a response by rocks at the surface to low temperatures, pressures and the presence of air and water.

It is important to recognize that the (R)/(S) system is based on the structure of an individual molecule and the (+)/(-) system is based on the macroscopic behavior of a large collection of molecules.


Optical rotation
Optical rotation. Optical rotation or optical activity (sometimes referred to as rotary polarization) is the rotation of the plane of polarization of linearly polarized light as it travels through certain materials. Optical activity occurs only in chiral materials, those lacking microscopic mirror symmetry.


CHAPTER 3
Once techniques were developed to determine the three-dimensional structure of a molecule, the source of the optical activity of a substance was recognized: Compounds that are optically active contain molecules that are chiral. Chirality is a property of a molecule that results from its structure.


-
The polarimetry experiment. In measuring optical rotation, plane-polarized light travels down a long tube containing the sample. If it is a liquid, the sample may be placed in the tube as a pure liquid (its is sometimes called a neat sample). Usually, the sample is dissolved in a solvent and the resulting solution is placed in the tube.


-
The optical rotation is measured on a layer of suitable thickness at the wavelength specified in the monograph. If the sodium D line is specified, the sodium light of wavelength 589.3 nm (a mean value for a doublet at 589.0 nm and 589.6 nm) should be used.

Specific rotation
Specific rotation. Recording optical rotation with a polarimeter: The plane of polarisation of plane polarised light (4) rotates (6) as it passes through an optically active sample (5). This angle is determined with a rotatable polarizing filter (7). In chemistry, specific rotation ([Î±]) is a property of a chiral chemical compound. It is defined as the change in orientation of monochromatic plane-polarized light, per unit distanceâconcentration product, as the light passes through a sample of a compound in solution.

The measurement of optical rotation should be carried out at the temperature indicated in the monograph, usually at 20-25 Â°C. Some substances have large temperature coefficients and for them special care should be taken to adjust the temperature indicated. Specific optical rotation (specific rotation)


Effect of temperature on optical rotation of sugar solution
The temperature associated with a measurement of the specific or molar rotation of a given substance must be specified. Thermal volume changes or alterations in molecular structure (as induced by a temperature change) are capable of producing detectable changes in the observed rotations.


Effect of temperature on optical rotation of sugar solution
The temperature changes it's optical activity. This depends on the wavelength of light used and the substance. From my own personal experience, a 633nm laser will result in little change in optical activity. A green (546.1nm) has a much more easily measurable change (if you are doing a lab).


An  Online Introduction to Advanced Biology
There are three somewhat different types of interactions that can hold atoms together, all called bonds: there are ionic bonds, covalent bonds, and hydrogen bonds.


-
The valence electrons are in the outer (highest) energy levels and are the main determiners of chemical activity and bonding. Valence comes from a Latin word meaning power and used for the combining power of an atom, i.e. how many neighbouring atoms it can bond with.


An  Online Introduction to Advanced Biology
COVALENT BONDS are produced when atoms can fill their outer electron shells more easily by borrowing electrons from another atom, while sharing some of theirs. Atoms from the middle Columns of the Periodic Table, from 3 to 6, often form these kinds of bonds, even when coming together as ions.


An  Online Introduction to Advanced Biology
Although bonds often hold together atoms on a one-bond: one-atom pairing, it is possible for more than one electron to be shared between two atoms. These are multiple bonds. There are double bonds, as is found in the common atmospheric form of oxygen, O2, or triple bonds, found in the atmospheric form of nitrogen, N2.


An  Online Introduction to Advanced Biology
Hydrogen bonds, based on a wide variety of partial charges, also can be widely different in strength, approaching ionic bond strength in rare cases. There is another class of bond, metallic bonds, solids where the electrons are shared among all of the atoms, but they have no real role in biological systems.


-
When large numbers of such atoms come together, all sharing some of their electrons to fill outer shells, a covalent solid is formed. A notable example of a covalent solid is diamond, which is a three-dimensional carbon network built up from tetrahedral units.


-
These dipoles will arise, for example, in a molecule, where atoms share an electron, but the electron spends more time with one atom, because it is bigger, and less time with the smaller atom. The effective charge separation may be only a fraction (perhaps a tenth) of the electron's charge.


-
Atoms have their electrons confined in potential energy wells around them, but not at any energy, there are only a few discrete energy levels allowed. These levels are like steps on a ladder where your feet cannot be supported at any height, but only on the rungs.


An  Online Introduction to Advanced Biology
Covalent bonds may result from atoms sharing electrons, but the sharing may not be completely equal: atoms with more protons may be able to hold their own and other atoms borrowed electrons more strongly than their partner atoms can, so that electrons spend more time around the larger atom in a covalent bond.


How long is a basketball game?
A basketball game (NBA) is technically only 48 minutes. However, with half-time, timeouts, fouls, and close games, a basketball game is actually around 2 1/2 hours.

 The game is divided into 4 quarters, each 12 minutes long. Should the score be tied at the end of the fourth quarter, the game will go into a 5 minute overtime period. Should the game be tied at the end of overtime, there will be a 5 minute second overtime, and so on.

Induction of Transcription
The underlying mechanism of induction of transcription can be either the release of repression or activation. An effector may work either by counteracting repression, in which case it is called an inducer, or as a corepressor, which is required for repression, such as tryptophan with the Trp repressor.


-
Glucose absent, lactose present: Strong transcription of the lac operon occurs. The lac repressor is released from the operator because the inducer (allolactose) is present. cAMP levels are high because glucose is absent, so CAP is active and bound to the DNA.


BioCoach Activity
Concept 7: The lac Inducer: Allolactose. Allolactose is called an inducer because it turns on, or induces the expression of, the lac genes. The presence of lactose (and thus allolactose) determines whether or not the Lac repressor is bound to the operator. Allolactose binds to an allosteric site on the repressor protein causing a conformational change. As a result of this change, the repressor can no longer bind to the operator region and falls off. RNA polymerase can then bind to the promoter and transcribe the lac genes.


inducer
inducer in Medicine Expand. inducer inÂ·ducÂ·er (Än-dÅÅ'sÉr, -dyÅÅ'-) n. One that induces, especially a molecule that is usually a substrate of a specific enzyme pathway, combining with an active repressor produced by a regulator gene to deactivate the repressor. A part or structure in an embryo that influences the differentiation of another part.


Induction of Transcription
Alternatively, a weak promoter is positively controlled by an activator protein bound to a coactivator (a ligand required for transcription activation). The lac operon, one of the paradigms of transcription regulation, is subject to both negative and positive control.


-
When lactose is not available, the lac repressor binds tightly to the operator, preventing transcription by RNA polymerase. However, when lactose is present, the lac repressor loses its ability to bind DNA. It floats off the operator, clearing the way for RNA polymerase to transcribe the operon.


Induction of Transcription
Thus, for example, the lac operon is controlled by two mechanisms, activation and repression. Full induction of the lac promoter requires both activation of transcription by the CAP/cAMP complex and release of repression through inactivation of the Lac repressor by the inducer.


Induction of Transcription
There are two main strategies for the induction of transcription: a strong promoter is negatively controlled by a repressor protein and induction of transcription is effected by an inducer (a ligand that inactivates the repressor).


Induction of Transcription
Lac repressor occurs in two conformations. In the absence of inducer, it binds tightly to lac operator DNA and thus represses transcription from the adjacent lac promoter. In the presence of inducer, it changes its conformation and binds about 1000-fold less tightly to lac operator.

How Long Does it Take to Get to Mars?
Every two years or so, Mars and Earth reach their closest point, called âoppositionâ, when Mars can be as close as 55,000,000 km from Earth. And every two years, space agencies take advantage of this orbital alignment to send spacecraft to the Red Planet.hy Does it Take So Long? When you consider the fact that Mars is only 55 million km away, and the spacecraft are travelling in excess of 20,000 km/hour, you would expect the spacecraft to make the journey in about 115 days, but it takes much longer.

What is the function of the glomerulus?
In the kidney, a tubular structure called the nephron filters blood to form urine. At the beginning of the nephron, the glomerulus /É¡lÉËmÉrÉlÉs/ is a network (tuft) of capillariesthat performs the first step of filtering blood.The glomerulus is surrounded by Bowman's capsule.he Bowman's capsule empties the filtrate into a tubule that is also part of the nephron. A glomerulus receives its blood supply from an afferent arteriole of the renal circulation. Unlike most other capillary beds, the glomerulus drains into an efferent arteriole rather than a venule.

Ohio got its name from the Iroquois word, âO-Y-O,â meaning âgreat river.â The Iroquois Indians had begun to settle between the Ohio River and Great Lakes by 1650, although it is estimated that only a few hundred lived in present-day Ohio during any one period. The city of Cleveland was founded by Connecticut-born Moses Cleaveland, who, in 1796, went to survey land claimed by the Connecticut Land Co. as part of the Western Reserve. Although the city was originally named âCleaveland,â in the early 1930s the Cleveland Advertiser dropped the âaâ in order to fit the name on its masthead, and the new spelling caught on.
