Genetic Tools and Societal Improvement Genetics is a field of biology that deals with the study of genes and how genetic variation affects the hereditary traits of the resultant being. The concepts of diversity is a crucial aspect of life that is mostly contributed to by the genetic modification of various organisms. With the recent developments in the modern medical field, the field of genetics has mainly been affected and is being used to come up with new treatment approaches. Genetics is also being applied in other areas such as agriculture, which is helping to come up with better crop species that are better and improved in various ways such as pest and disease resistance. Genetic tools are therefore being used to improve the social aspects in multiple forms such as medicine and agriculture, thereby helping to improve the quality of life. Genetics and medicine As identified, genetics has been incorporated in various aspects of human life, and the medical field is one such way in which genetics is linked to the evolutionary and contemporary field of medicine. Genetics cam…

Asphalt Recycling Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation Asphalt Recycling Of the recent past, heavy traffic and bad weather have been the leading causes of road damage. The fatigue of material propagates surface cracking as a result of heavy traffic. This material fatigue is due to the shear loadings for the vehicle tire. Another cause of surface cracking is the aging of bituminous materials. On the other hand, bad weather causes thermal cracking caused by tensile stresses. The changes in temperature are the cause of these stresses. These cracking roads have asphalt concrete content. In a bid to rehabilitate the roads, governments spend a lot of money depending on the damage characteristics of the roads. Having it that these roads are made of asphalt concrete, there are several ways of recycling the asphalt pavements. This includes; cold in-place recycling (CIPR), full depth reclamation (FDR), hot in-place recycling (HIPR), cold planning, and hot recycling (Warren et al., 2002). Cold in-place recycling (CIPR), involves rehabilitation techniques where pavement materials are reused in situ. For this technique, the asphalt materials are…

The Last Panda. The author of the book “The Last Panda,” George B. Schaller, is an American conservationist, biologist, and mammologist. He is a recognized field biologist who has studied wildlife throughout Africa. His work in conservation has resulted in the protection of vast stretches of the Amazon forest. The author shows us how the distinction of the bamboo forest, which had been hunted for its pelt, has made the panda be on the brink of extinction. With the unique mix of nature, history, and politics of conservation, George Schaller describes the routines and personalities of the giant panda. The charming, gentle, and vulnerability of pandas make them highly endangered animals around china. In his book, George Schaller makes it clear that despite all the popularity surrounding the panda, the attention and acclaim do not aid in conserving the endangered species. Blending in the cultural humility and scientific expertise, the author documents his long campaigns in china attributed to saving the panda with minimal or indifference successes. He shows how the Chinese nationalities pose a threat to natural habitats of…
Name: Instructor: Course Title: Due Date: Rachel Rose Interview: Between Living and Non-living. The short film, ‘Rachel Rose Interview: Between Living and Non-living,’ analyses the film works of Rachel Rose with herself as the commentator. It shows a snippet of one of Rachel’s movies, followed by her explanation of her inspiration for making the movies. Another piece follows her account, showing where the story she tells fits in the film. The film shows Rachel’s diverse works from writing children’s stories to writing about space and architecture and the unique ideas used to integrate the living and non-living in the films. The film shows the uniqueness of the making and delivery of Rachel’s films. It explores the personal contributions of Rachel to the ideas behind the making of her films. The split technique results in a seamless elucidation of the different types of films that she makes. As I watch the interview, it is clear what ideas influenced which movie. The placement of Rachel’s explanation between two snippets of her films made it easier for me to place her concepts and…
Scientists never stop to find solutions to current issues I have always been fascinated by science and technology, thanks to my inquisitive mind. I never shy away from asking ‘why?’ and ‘how?’ to understand even the basic concepts of our everyday life. Science and technology appeal to me because of the endless possibilities the fields have as well as the promise of more significant technological advances expected in the near future. Science and technology have evolved tremendously over the past decades, and their integration to many other fields is evident. As a student, I`m more interested in their application to modern-day problems. Scientists never stop to find solutions to current issues while, at the same time, use the same current science and technology data to predict future patterns. Being part of a science contest team a few years back, I had a rare opportunity to listen to science students present their unique but fascinating ideas to the whole science fraternity. This group of students were well versed, communicated efficiently, and exhibited their arguments more precisely. Their inventions were impressive as…

comparative analysis of a newspaper article by Jacewicz (2017) Genetics and environment surrounding an individual are the main factors that influence personality. However, in the past few years, research has been carried out to investigate the link between the discrepancies in adult’s personalities and their physical locations. Chopik and Motyl (2017) conducted a correlational study in 50 states and found a relationship between adult’s personalities and their geographical locations. This paper provides a comparative analysis of a newspaper article by Jacewicz (2017) who makes claims based on Chopik and Motyl study. The paper establishes that Jacewicz has done a good job referencing Chopik and Motyl’s work, but the title of her article provides a different message from the original journal article. To understand the relationship between personality and geographic location of an individual, Chopik and Motyl (2017) conducted a research in 50 states to 127, 050 adults ranging between the age of 25 to 35 years. From the study sample, 73.5% were female, while 26.5% were male. The study was carried out between September 2002 and March 2012 where the…
Digital bed management and real-time location systems Digital bed management and real-time location systems are vital technological tools which the hospital may adopt to support patient flow and staffing. These systems help the organization to prioritize the flow of patients from wards and emergency units. Bed management tracks the location of patients in real-time and enables the hospital to determine the appropriate type of care that they should receive. Though rightfully matching each patient with their ward, the clinic saves time compared to using manual coordination. The real-time location helps the medical staff to monitor the site of each medical practitioner on duty. Employees also use this technology to track the location of critical medical equipment that is important for emergencies. Besides, the systems help to reduce endless telephone calls that are made when needing to admit a patient because all vital hospital departments have access to them through real-time wallboards. Moreover, using the two technologies ensures that nurses spend less time in logistics and cleaning and instead re-direct their attention to patient care. Currently, the United Kingdom has implemented…
