Even though change is a normal thing and we all accept it, the one that we are facing at this time is not as we expected. It requires you to develop inner strength so to withstand it. In truth of heart and logic, the pandemic stated as a joke, most of us knew that it wouldn’t take long till the medicine is found to conquer the pandemic. Sincerely speaking, it was in my mind that nations like the United States, China, Italy, Spain, among others, had got well-skilled scientists who can stop the crisis within a short period. However, decision making in such situations has been a challenge to many people, governments, and more so to many Nations. At first, it was a challenge for me to come up with a decision, but as the pandemic persists, I was able to…

Great Content You Should Consider Watching On Netflix During Quarantine The whole world is currently experiencing changes, as many countries lock down their borders to foreign nationals. As the health systems of countries like Italy and Spain crumble, more and more drastic measures are being taken by governments to desperately try and shield its citizens against COVID 19. One of the safest and effective precautions taken is avoiding crowded places; this translates to people having to stay at home for an unknown duration. People should invest in finding more entertainment activities to keep them busy in quarantine that should continue for s foreseeable future. As we play our part in helping flatten the curve through self-isolation and social distancing, we find ourselves with more time.

As we seek distraction, joy, and comfort to help maneuver these moments filled with uncertainty and anxiety, Netflix is a media streaming platform worth looking at. Below are several tips…

The Diet, Anatomy, and Ecological Niche of Hominins. Introduction The feeding habits, ecology, behavior, and anatomy of hominins are the primary focus of many primatologists’ studies. The relationship between a hominin’s diet, its home range, behavior, and anatomy allows paleontologists to understand their subjects. Diet is the basis of many differences that separate species, families, and genera. For extant taxa, the most reliable way of determining diet is observation (Ungar 205). For extinct taxa, it is the comparison of the characteristics of teeth found fossil assemblage with attributes of the dental formula of existing hominins (Ungar 205). Diet also influences the brain size of a primate. The consumption of high energy food such as meat facilitated the increase of brain size in hominins (DeCasien et al., 3). An organism’s diet is critical in determining its ecological niche. What a hominin feeds on determines how it interacts with the biotic and abiotic factors in its environment. Hypothesis. A primate’s diet corresponds with its dental morphology since the dental formula of hominins is designed to allow adequate consumption of its preferred food.…

innate racial differences between the black and the white The existence of racial issues has contributed to toxic effects amongst the affected group. Through these issues, the affected groups have been considered to be characterized by high risks of attacking diseases. Racial issues result in discrimination, which has been deemed to be linked to the outcome of health. This shows that discrimination base on race directly harms the health of a person. The racial issues are hazardous in the nation since it constitutes stressors. For instance, when it is analyzed under chronic stressor, the racial problems highly trigger the inflammatory action of responses specifically to African Americans within the cellular level. For a person to successfully survive, he or she may have the ability to respond to injuries, stresses, and infection. Racial issues are like a threat to the affected group. It triggers the response of the immune system hence fending off the pathogens, and th repair damaged tissues. The selected group f gene is the key to such a defense mechanism. Therefore the signs of inflammation of such genes…

World Climate Reflection Technological advancement in the industrial sector has resulted in many positive outcomes about improving the way people live. At the same time, the current generation is facing the risk of extinction due to the negative impacts of climate change that is taking place due to human activities globally. In the recent past, we have witnessed the drastic and undesired changes in our ecosystem. In the recent past, we have seen burning forests, an increase in water pollution by toxic industrial and domestic wastes, and the constant melting of icebergs. Our greatest inventions are leading to our downfall because people are longing to make it easier and comfortable while at the same time neglecting the basics of conserving our environment. Most of the world population is not aware of what climate change is and its negative impacts. Our education systems only mention the outcomes of climate change, but it doesn’t give more information on how such changes can be prevented. Shockingly, world leaders are turning their backs on this crisis. The whole world should come together and raise…

  COMPARISON OF 1981 H1NI PANDEMIC AND COVID-19   Students’ Name;       Abstract Today the world is facing the COVID-19 pandemic, which has infected over 3.25 million people and leads to death of over 231 thousand people. The pandemic has halted the economic progress of many countries as many businesses have closed down except for businesses offering essential services such as hospitals. People are working from home as one of the measures to fight the spread of the illness. Governments are also coming up with policies on social distancing and quarantine. These measures take as back to the 1918 Spanish flu caused by the H1N1 virus. 2020 marks 102 years after this pandemic. The Spanish flu is recorded as the most terrific pandemic because it caused estimated deaths of around 50 million people which was 2.7% of the world population. To combat the Spanish flu measures being taken today to combat and reduce the spread of COVID-19 were taken. This similarity of the methods leaves the question; how is the Spanish flu related to COVID-19 and how the…

Since the beginning of 2020, conversations have been the same as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. I am more than shocked by the number of phone calls I have made and received. For the last one week, I’ve had to fix tik tok times, scheduled FaceTime dates with friends, and video conferences with course mates. This is the only time I have received more than enough communications that last for hours since I turned 15. I know I am not alone, the pandemic is global, and millions of people are in lockdown, leading to rising in telecommunication. With people I’ve spoken to, we’ve connected in new social ways, hosted virtual parties, and had happy hours. There has been a reunion with friends we had distanced ourselves and disconnected for decades. I should have learned how to use Novena video before all this so that I’d use it with my family to pray together or conduct gathering calls.  I should have learned how to FaceTime while working on my other projects. It would feel more like I am in a…

Self-Definition When growing up, most children face various struggles that are prompted by the conflicts within themselves. Significantly the internal crisis for discovering one’s place in life is the most significant issue that pushes some children to various heights to get recognition. Mostly, all children desire to be noticed and have the common desire to feel that their contribution to other people’s life is explored. Significantly, the theme that would best suit such a scenario is self-definition, which is evident from my experiences as a child. Additionally, this theme is common throughout the story by Sandra, which narrates the adventures of a girl named Esperanza. House on Mango Street is a set of various short chapters that describe the life of Esperanza, especially after they move into a house in Mango Street. The experiences show multiple instances of a child trying to find her place in the world. It is an illustration of the efforts of trying to discover herself. Self-definition involves the character that makes one different from others around them (O’Kelley, 65). As the case is with Esperanza,…
