Phonological Analysis Introduction Learners are confronted with diverse problems in learning a second language so as English, especially in pronunciation, which is believed to be the most basic stumbling block in learning English (Roach, P., 2009). The reason why there are so many challenges with pronunciation is that speakers come from various language backgrounds and where the L1 phonology is significantly different from English. Of the Chinese phonological viewpoint, English phonology is problematic, and students often make mistakes. Teachers of English can learn a lot about their student’s problems if they can analyze spoken discourse appropriately. This essay will analyze a sample of spoken dialogue from three aspects, including segmental, suprasegmental, as well as fluency and pausing. Also, it will discuss some approaches for refining the speaking competence of this speaker and will highlight the main features which can be developed in the classroom for students with similar phonological issues. Segmental Analysis For better understanding the speech, people should translate those speeches sounds into written forms to make sure audiences or readers can totally and correctly understand what does…

idea of race as innate biology The series questions the idea of race as innate biology as to why there is a division of people into different groups of black, red, or white. That this idea of division has become embedded too much in ourselves that even when one tries to dismiss the idea will be seen as crazy. The series suggest that the belief in inborn racial differences has become more of believing a lie. However, race still matters even though it does not exist in biology; it does not mean it is not real. In the first episode of the series, the difference between us looks into genetics that challenges the sense that makes humans assume that it is reasonable to group people into different groups according to their physical traits. In the second episode, the story we tell shows the different roots of the story of race in North America, which was legalized by the 19th-century science, and how it was accepted by the western imagination. It explains the role of race n rationalizing and justifying American…
Molecular Biology for Health Professions Chapter 19: Cellular junctions Cell junctions consist of multiprotein complexes that provide contact between neighbouring cells or between a cell and the extracellular matrix. They also build up the paracellular barrier of epithelia and control paracellular transport (Keith et al., 2002). A plasma membrane is a semi-permeable membrane which controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell. Each nerve cell in the brain must be fed by blood, or the cells will quickly die of oxygen deprivation. I believe you are perhaps referring to a capillary system that sustains these cells in a way that compartmentalize them as much as possible. Cell junctions are especially abundant in epithelial tissues (Rodgers, 2004). Desmosomes bind intermediate to intermediate from one cell to another and Zonula adherents actin to actin: these both make up the anchoring junction. Desmosomes pin adjacent cells together, ensuring that cells in organs and tissues that stretch, such as skin and cardiac muscle, remain connected in an unbroken sheet (Keith et al., 2002). The epithelial cell is a protective and anchoring…
Physical anthropology Living organisms have changed tremendously over time in different aspects. These changes may have occurred internally in their biological make-up or as a response to changes in their ecology. Evolution is the gradual change in the characteristics of various individual biological species of living organisms over time. In studying evolution, other disciplines such as biology, sociology among others are instrumental in providing vital information that can help us understand what triggered the evolutionary response of human beings to changes occurring in their internal and external environment. Physical anthropology is a branch of anthropology whose focus is on the origin of human beings, their evolution, the differences among them, and how they have adapted to the changes occurring in their environment. It investigates how these changes have contributed to the survival and reproduction of the human species (Tuttle, 2018). Physical anthropology is also referred to as biological anthropology. Physical anthropologists investigate evolution using various ways by focusing on different research areas. In explaining the differences present among the human population, physical anthropologists also study past fossils of nonhuman primate…
Protagonist and Antagonist in “Bartleby, the Scrivener” by Herman Melville Authors usually assign characters roles to play in their works of art. Different characters are used to develop the plot in various ways. Some of the characters advance given courses or support certain ideologies while others oppose the ideologies. In his work, “Bartleby, the Scrivener,” Herman Melville does not overtly present the protagonist and the real antagonist in his work. However, we can still deduce who plays the role of the protagonist or antagonist based on the behavior and actions they perform in the story. In this case, the narrator can be considered the protagonist in a more conventional way. Firstly, he is the character that the readers know best as they can identify with him and even see the story through his eyes. The narrator is also most accessible and essentially the human character in the story. He is not an alien like Bartleby and other clerks. His mission to comprehend and assist Bartleby becomes the readers’ own in the story. On the other hand, Bartley, through his actions,…
my mental day time-off For my mental day time-off, I chose to take a nature walk in the nearby forest trail and end with a massage. Alexandratos, Barnett & Thomas (2012) note that walking is useful not only for physical well-being but also for improving one’s mental status. A report by Williams et al. (2016) further supports this view by noting that walking, just like every other physical exercise, boosts one’s mental health through biological processes. The nervous system releases the endorphin chemicals, which are essential in helping the individual to cope with pain or any other psychological distress. The chemicals, which are also known as the “feel-good” hormones, are also useful in releasing feelings of happiness into the brain. This, in turn, changes how one feels and thinks, thus enhancing better mental well-being. On the same matter, I was able to sleep better that night. According to Alexandratos, Barnett & Thomas (2012), walking enhances mental health by stimulating hormones that encourage relaxation and sound sleep. Walking improves the effects of natural sleep and thus ensures that the individual does…

CRISPR-Cas9 CRISPR-Cas9 system is a plant breeding technology that utilizes the site-directed nucleases to choose and alter DNA with significant precision. The technology has received a lot of attention in recent years of study following its development in 2012. CRISPR-Cas9 system is currently applied in various fields which include biological research, breeding and development of agricultural plants along with animal and human research to offer greater insight into the growth and development of crops and animals. CRISPR act as an integral part of the bacterial defence where it protects the plants from the bacterial attack. Moreover, CRISPR molecule is habitually made up of tiny palindromic DNA series that are replicated along the molecule and are frequently spaced. The palindromic DNA series in the CRISPR molecules are usually strange DNA series from the organism that have formerly attacked the bacteria. CRISPR processes The CRISPR technology protects the bacteria in a plant from continuous virus attacks through three distinct processes which entail adaptation, production of CRISPR RNA along with targeting. Adaptation involves the processing of the viral DNA into short segments where…
