Ch. 2 Neuroscience and behavior 10 Everything psychological is simultaneously biological. It?s your brain not your heart that falls in love. (Discredited Aristotle mind in heart) Early 1800s Gall invented phrenology that bumps on head reveal our mental abilities. Biological Psychology- a branch of psychology concerned with the links btw biology and behavior. Sect. 1 Neural Communication Bio-psycho-social systems. Human brains are complex they follow principles govern all the animal world.

Alexandra Odinlo IB Chemistry 1 August 26, 2013 Science and Human Nutrition Human Digestion Digestion?is the process of breaking down the foods that we eat into forms of energy that the body can use as energy. The Digestive process is one that involves the body?s biological mechanical works as well as chemical means to breakdown nutrients from different types of foods. Mechanical digestion?begins the digestion process. In your mouth as your teeth begin to mash food into smaller pieces to allow you to swallow them. Soon after saliva in your mouth bring about the chemical changes to your food. Chemical and mechanical parts of digestion work hand in hand toward the goal of providing nourishment for your body.

North Korea Today North Korea is the epitome of modern day slavery. As a result of the work of Kim Il-sung, no citizen of North Korea will ever taste the freedom that many others have laid their lives down for. Theirs is a government so corrupt that citizens live in fear of challenging it and so unforgiving that children must be brainwashed from birth for their own survival.

At some point in your study of psychology, you may be required to write a case study. A case study is an in-depth analysis of a single person. These are often used in clinical cases or in situations when lab research is not possible or practical. In undergraduate courses, these are often based on a real individual, an imagined individual, or a character from a television show, film, or book.

4/2/13 1:14 PM DNA Deoxyribose Double Stranded (Double Helix) Nitrogenous bases (Cytosine, Guanine, Adenine, Thymine) RNA Ribonucleic Single Stranded Nitrogenous bases (Cytosine, Guanine, Adenine, Uracil) Both have phosphate Cytosine = Guanine Adenine = Thymine DNA Replication is semi conservative. DNA Replication happens during interphase. One strand determines the sequence of the other strand. DNA polymerase copies DNA strands in the 5?->3? direction. Transcription ? The first step of gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA by the enzyme, RNA polymerase. Translation ? The process through which cellular ribosomes manufacture proteins. In DNA, T=A G=C In RNA, T=A G=C A=U Translation occurs in the cytoplasm.

During Meiosis I Crossing over ? exchanges genetic information between homologous chromosomes. Independent assortment ? Line up randomly and separate into daughter cells Both increase genetic diversity in sexual reproduction. During Meiosis II Sisterchromatids divide Final Result 4 cells, haploid genetically different from original cell. Mitosis and Meiosis 2/27/13 1:16 PM 2/27/13 1:16 PM

CHAPTER 4 Three kinds of ethical violations participants in the study were harmed participants were not treated respectfully researchers targeted a disadvantaged social group (eg. The Tuskegee Syphilis Study violated all three) The Milgram Studies: the study was extremely stressful to the participants debriefing: in an interview after the study, participants were carefully informed about the study?s true nature, details and hypotheses and introduced to the unharmed learner but participants may still suffer post-study stress A fundamental conundrum in deciding whether the research is ethical; try to balance the potential risks to participants against the value of the knowledge we can gain.
