Nina Fedoroff in her Ted Talk Nina Fedoroff in her Ted Talk named, “A secret weapon against Zika and other mosquito-borne diseases” says that Zika fever is the newest dreaded disease.  For most adults, it is a mild disease.  It is characterized by fever, headache, joint pain, and sometimes a rush.  She says that most of the people who catch the virus do not even know that they have had it.  The more that is revealed about the Z            ika virus, the scarier it gets.  For example, recently, doctors have noticed an uptick of Guillain-Barre Syndrome in the recent outbreaks of Zika fever. Guillain-Barre Syndrome is very rare, and people mostly recover, but pregnant mothers who contract it are at the risk of microcephaly, a condition where the brain and head of a child are smaller than that of children of their own gender and age. Like many other viruses, Fedoroff says, Zika virus came from Africa in the Zika forest of Uganda.  Researchers from the nearby Yellow Fever Research institute identified the virus first in a monkey in the…

Linguistics Definition of Terminologies Dialect: A variety or form of language based on region, social background, or occupation. An example of an idiom is wheat, as referred to in England and Oats in the case of Scotland. Language: A structured system of communication employed by particular groups or communities and consists of written symbols or a set of sounds. An example of a language is the Zulu language. Pidgin: A form of communication that arises between persons with different languages and involves simplified grammar and speech. English pidgin is pervasive in West African countries such as Nigeria. Creole: A language that arises when two simplified languages are merged over a considerable time. A creole language typically evolves from a pidgin. Neurolinguistics: The study of the neural mechanisms of language production, storage, comprehension, and acquisition. Phonology: The branch of linguistics concerned with the study of sound patterns and the meaning of sound patterns within and between spoken languages. Morphology: The branch of linguistics concerned with the study of the structure of words, word formation, and their association with other words in…

Responding to Stacy Adam Hello, You have well identified the condition the 16-year old boy suffered. Strep throat infection is a condition that can get worse when not controlled due to the bacteria that causes it, the Streptococcus bacteria. However, contrary to what you have mentioned, I believe the infection has a special genetic relationship. The disease can indeed spread with a close association between people indoors since it is airborne. However, its repetitive nature, especially in children, has a link between genetics and immunological factors. Genetics influences a repetitive A strep to evade the throats of particular individuals time and again. It is the combination of the genes with the immunological factors that cause recurrent strep throat. I agree with you that the test confirmed strep throat infection and that the response was his body’s initial inflammatory response to the bacteria, and the reaction to the antibiotic got influenced by the lgE antibodies that aim to reduce or prevent the impacts of the reactions of the drugs.  You have demonstrated a great understanding of this concept. Great post! Regards…

Noam Chomsky Noam Chomsky is one of the twentieth century’s most prominent linguists, and he centred his linguistic research on certain doctrinal teachings. His significant achievement in linguistics is the Transition Generative Grammar, which reflects on mental psychology. In 1928, the American philosopher, historian, linguist, political activist, cognitive scientist, as well as a social critic, was born. To many, Noam is also known as ‘ the father of contemporary linguistics,’ even though he is also a pillar in analytic philosophy as well as a significant founding father and contributor to cognitive science (Yang et al. 2017). Chomsky was given birth and raised in a Jewish family of middle income. He went to an unconventional primary academy, where he got motivated to cultivate his passions together with his skills using a study which was self-directed. He wrote an editorial for his school newspaper at the age of 10, lamenting the loss of Barcelona in the Spanish Civil War and the rise of fascism across Europe. Chomsky started to travel into New York City by himself when he was 13, finding publications…

benefits of Genetically modified organisms Genetically modified organisms, also known as GMOs, have been a topic of debate amongst households and laboratories across the world, especially within the last decade. Advances in technology and genetics have allowed scientists to change specific genes within an organism and permits the creation of Transgenic entities. Every individual has their own opinion on GMO’s, some believe that it is wrong to play “Mother Nature” and change the genetic makeup of organisms. Uneducated spectators believe that genetically modified organisms can change the genetic makeup of those who consume said organism, however, there is not enough scientific evidence supporting these conspiracy theories. Although, science has suggested that GMO’s actually have numerous benefits for both humans and the organisms. [unique_solution]GMO’s can aid in an increased food supply, as Genetically modified organisms can be grown in a variety of conditions, which allows non native plants to grow in any desired area. GMO’s can provide medical assistance; many of the vaccines and supplements manufactured today are derived from GMO’s, therefore they are essential in the development of new drugs…

IMPACT OF SOCIAL LIFE ON INDIVIDUAL’S LIFE CHANCES ABSTRACT The main topic discussed in this research is the impact of social life on individual’s life chances in terms of marriage, housing, political involvement, family experience and education. The researcher is an American student. The main methods for carrying out research are use of questionnaires, interviews and secondary sources with the conclusion confirming the hypothesis that there is a relationship between social life and individual’s life chances. INTRODUCTION Social class of an individual can have both negative and positive impacts on individual life. Social life brings inequality because commodities and chances in the society are not equally distributed and therefore there is a daily struggle to obtain them. This can be observed in areas of life in terms of marriages, family experiences, occupation, holidays, housing, education political involvement or even healthcare. Social class can determine who to marry, which time of housing one will have or live in, which level of education an individual can have and the school an individual will go to, whether an individual will pursue leadership positions…

Malaria Endemic In Ashanti Region    BACKGROUND Malaria remains one of the endemic health issues in Ghana as one of the tropical countries in Africa. In Subsaharan Africa (SSA), pregnant women and children under the age of 5 are the most vulnerable (Badirou et al. 2018, Owusu Boateng and Autro 2017; WHO 2017). Malaria accounts for 14% of all outpatient cases, 11% of the hospital admissions, and 9% of all deaths among pregnant women in Ghana. (Boateng et al. 2018).  Plasmodium falciparum malaria 0ne of the major contributors to morbidity accounting for 40% of morbidity in the Ashanti region of Ghana. This poses a significant socioeconomic challenge to families living in this region. Method Used to Identify the issue. Several methods were used to identify the issue. One of them is a literature review where several books and articles were read. They provided incite on the current and past qualitative and quantitative data on the state of the endemic in the region. A cross-sectional study was conducted where Questionnaires were used to interview 240 out 1200 women who were in…

Analogous cognitive ability and homologous cognitive ability In psychology, cognitive ability could be explained as the mental skills needed by animals to perform tasks, which could be both rudimentary and complex. Delving further, cognitive ability relates to how tasks are learnt, remembered, solving of tasks and attention to detail. Analogous cognitive ability occurs in species that are not evolutionary related and consequent shared genetics between the two species. To answer the question on the paper; chimps and capuchins will reflect analogous cognitive ability as opposed to chimps and humans. The reason why chimps and capuchins will reflect analogous cognitive ability is due to the fact that using primate evolution tree; chimps fall under the homininae line while capuchins fall under the old world monkey line and therefore the evolutionary related degree shared is less, as would have been compared between humans and chimps. Humans and chimps share the same homininae line on the primate evolution tree, so they are closely related evolutionarily.   Tools Van Lawick-Goodall – The use of an external object as a functional extension of mouth or…

Family Health Promotion The success of health promotion in the family relies on the concept of family health, explaining why the idea is crucial in part. There are strategies that each family needs to employ to facilitate this (Kaakinen et al., 2018). Hence, the more skilled they are in doing so, the better the health those members will enjoy. Thus, a nurse needs to educate families not only about the need for understanding the family health concept but also the strategies that they can put in place to achieve it. Health promotion strategies include the creation of a conducive environment that offers support to those in need, promotion of community action towards patients, and provision of personal skills training (Sakson et al., 2018). The World Health Organization contends that such measures are inseparable from any successful health promotion process. Markedly, individuals live within a family that determines what they eat, how they live, and what genes they posses other than other lifestyles. There are specific factors that each nurse must put into consideration as they determine the most appropriate health…
