Difference Between Ethnicity and Culture
Difference Between Ethnicity and Culture. The color of the skin and facial features has long been a basis of classification of human beings. No matter how much advancement may have taken place, it is natural for most of us to make stereotypes and base our behavior towards a person on his appearance and his racial affinities.

The words ethnicity and culture have always been confused by people and often used interchangeably though there are many differences between the two. This article aims to set things right by highlighting the differences of ethnicity and culture.


Difference Between Ethnicity and Culture
In the modern world, the word ethnicity is used to refer to racial affinities of a person and not necessarily as a derogatory word. Culture. Within each ethnic group, there are beliefs, values, norms, and practices that are learnt and shared.


Difference Between Ethnicity and Culture
â¢ Thus, ethnicity has nothing to do with the place of birth and is closer to country of origin that may be the place of birth of oneâs parents or ancestors. â¢ Culture is passed down from a generation to another and serves as a sense of identification.

Blackmailed by the Bomb: Nuclear Anxiety and the Cult of the Superweapon
In August of 1943, J. Robert Oppenheimer, the scientific director of the Manhattan Project, wrote, âIt is possible that the German will have, by the end of this year, enough material accumulated to make a large number of gadgets [atomic bombs] which they will release at the same time on England, Russia, and this countryâ (Ford 212).


Fear of Nuclear Threat
Although the fear of nuclear war is negative, the human society benefits from the fear in that many more people are educated and realize how harmful wars can be since nuclear bombs can easily destroy the world. The fear and anxiety motivate human to restrict the initiation of war.


The Rise of Nuclear Fear-How We Learned to Fear the Radiation
The Rise of Nuclear Fear-How We Learned to Fear the Radiation. I remember going to bed one night when I was 11, seriously afraid I would not be alive in the morning. It was October, 1962, and the frightening cold war between the U.S. and Soviet Union, constantly in the news but mostly abstract to me as a kid, had becoming terrifyingly real.


Fear of Nuclear Threat
Although the fear of nuclear war spread among a large population leaves anxiety, a sense of helplessness, and a lack of confidence in future in the younger generation, the fear has played a positive role in reducing the large-scale war on the world in the last 50 years.


Fear of Nuclear Weapons
Fear of Nuclear Weapons. The fear of nuclear weapons may be a reasonable fear. After all there is incredible power with devastating and long-term effects should a nuclear weapon be used in times of warfare. When this fear becomes debilitating it is clinically described as Nucleomituphobia.


The Rise of Nuclear Fear-How We Learned to Fear the Radiation
Nuclear fears even gave birth to the modern skepticism of technology and industry, and of science itself. There are profound lessons to learn, then, by looking back at the fear that peaked that frightening week in October of 1962, understanding where it came from, and examining what itâs done to us.


-
In the early years of the war the fear existed that Germany would develop a powerful new weapon. One scientist fleeing from Germany said of the German Nobel Laureate Werner Heisenberg, âIf anybody in the world could make the atomic bomb, Heisenberg couldâ (Szasz 407).


Atomosophobia- Fear of atomic explosions
Atomosophobia- Fear of atomic explosions. Atomosophobia is defined as an irregular and unwarranted concern of atomic explosions; every year this surprisingly this phobia causes many people useless distress. It is understood by a variety of names Atomosophobia and Fear of Atomic Explosions being the commonest â the issue often considerably impacts the quality of life. It can cause panic assaults and maintain the people other than the loved ones and enterprise associates.


The Rise of Nuclear Fear-How We Learned to Fear the Radiation
And despite the fear of nuclear war, three quarters of the people in a U.S. national survey in 1956 supported nuclear power. But at the same time, the world was learning of the birth defects suffered by the children of the atomic bomb survivors, who had been exposed in utero .


-
A simple example of this is the fact that in the first years of the war, when everyone in Germany believed that the war would be over by 1942, no scientist seriously considered the idea of developing an atomic weapon. Such a weapon would take years to develop and the war would be over before then.

In this lab, you will study an enzyme that is found in the cells of many living tissues. The name of the enzyme is catalase (KAT-uh-LAYSS); it speeds up a reaction which breaks down hydrogen peroxide, a toxic chemical, into 2 harmless substances--water and oxygen.hey do not die because your cells use enzymes to break down these poisonous chemicals into harmless substances. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of reactions that would otherwise happen more slowly. The enzyme is not altered by the reaction.

In this experiment, the action of catalase was tested on different types of tissue extracts.n enzyme called catalase breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. In experiment number 3, we are comparing the action of catalase in different tissues by testing this hypothesis: The breakdown of hydrogen peroxide occurs at the same rate in all cells.


The Liver: Helping Enzymes Help You!
A damaged enzyme may no longer work to catalyze a chemical reaction. Catalase is an enzyme in the liver that breaks down harmful hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. When this reaction occurs, oxygen gas bubbles escape and create foam.Materials.â¢ Raw liver (fresh or frozen, thawed; one quarter pound).atalase is an enzyme in the liver that breaks down harmful hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water. When this reaction occurs, oxygen gas bubbles escape and create foam. Materials. â¢ Raw liver (fresh or frozen, thawed; one quarter pound).


What type of enzyme is catalase?
Its functions include catalyzing the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen. Catalase has one of the highest turnover rates for all enzymes; one molecule of catalase can convert millions of molecules of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen per second.Catalase is a tetramer of four polypeptide chains, each over 500 amino acids long.It contains four porphyrin heme (iron) groups which allow the enzyme to react with the hydrogen peroxide. The optimum pH for catalase is approximately neutral (pH 7.0), while the optimum temperature varies by species.Source(s):atalase has one of the highest turnover rates for all enzymes; one molecule of catalase can convert millions of molecules of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen per second.


Enzyme Catalysis
A purified catalase extract is mixed with substrate (H2O2) in a beaker. The enzyme catalyzes the conversion of H2O to H2O and O2 (gas). 2. Before all the H2O2 is converted to H2O and O2, the reaction is stopped by adding sulfuric acid (H2SO4). purified catalase extract is mixed with substrate (H2O2) in a beaker.

Factors Affecting the Rate of Catalase Activity
Catalase operated with a high efficiency when the pH of the enzyme was 7. As the catalase pH was altered to acidic or basic, the rate of reaction decreased. Introduction. Catalase is an enzyme that promotes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen gas: H2O2 ï  H2O + O2.Hydrogen peroxide is a potential hazard for the body, which is why it is used to kill bacteria (WKU, 2010).

Y-STR analysis is used to amplify locations on the Y chromosome. Y chromosomes are paternally inherited and Y-STR data can only be obtained from male individuals. This type of testing may be useful when samples are mixtures of male and female DNA or when there is very little DNA from a male contributor. Y-STR testing has its limitations since close male relatives will have the same Y-STR profile. Mitochondria are organelles in the cell that contain their own DNA.

Porter's generic strategies
Porter wrote in 1980 that strategy targets either cost leadership, differentiation, or focus. These are known as Porter's three generic strategies and can be applied to any size or form of business. Porter claimed that a company must only choose one of the three or risk that the business would waste precious resources. Porter's generic strategies detail the interaction between cost minimization strategies, product differentiation strategies, and market focus strategies of porters.


-
A firm positions itself by leveraging its strengths. Michael Porter has argued that a firm's strengths ultimately fall into one of two headings: cost advantage and differentiation. By applying these strengths in either a broad or narrow scope, three generic strategies result: cost leadership, differentiation, and focus. These strategies are applied at the business unit level. They are called generic strategies because they are not firm or industry dependent. The following table illustrates Porter's generic strategies:


Porter's generic strategies
Porter's generic strategies describe how a company pursues competitive advantage across its chosen market scope. There are three/four generic strategies, either lower cost, differentiated, or focus. A company chooses to pursue one of two types of competitive advantage, either via lower costs than its competition or by differentiating itself along dimensions valued by customers to command a higher price.


-
For this reason, Michael Porter argued that to be successful over the long-term, a firm must select only one of these three generic strategies. Otherwise, with more than one single generic strategy the firm will be stuck in the middle and will not achieve a competitive advantage.


Porter's generic strategies
Porter's generic strategies - Recent developments. 1  Michael Treacy and Fred Wiersema (1993) in their book The Discipline of Market Leaders have modified Porter's three strategies to describe three basic value disciplines that can create customer value and provide a competitive advantage.
