When the Linnaean system of classification was first developed in the early 1700s, it only had two kingdoms for living things, t

he plant and animal kingdoms. Three more kingdoms have been added since then, as well as a higher division of three domains. Why are we still using this system if we have to keep changing the way it is organized?

Answer:

Carolus Linnaeus developed the classical system of classification in the eighteenth century that classified the organisms into animals and plants as done by Aristotle. After Linnaeus, the system of classification got modified into three kingdom classification given by Haeckel in 1866, then it was modified to four kingdom classification systems by Copeland in 1956.  

After that, it got changed to the five-kingdom classification system by Whittaker and at present the six kingdom classification system is followed, which was given by Carl Woese in 1977. This six kingdom system is the modern classification system that aligns organisms into a larger group called domain.  

This variation in the system of categorizing the organism suggests that the knowledge diversifies and flourishes with the time that can modify the understanding of nature like comprehending the living world. The progression in the knowledge has assisted in shaping the system of classification.

Answer:

The Linnaean system of classification is also known as the classical system of biological classification proposed by the Carolus Linnaeus.  He categorised the organisms into two groups- the plants and animals on the basis of morphological characters.

But this system has evolved with time from two kingdoms to six kingdom system which is divided into Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Protista, Fungi Animalia and Plantae with time due to the advancements in technology and understanding of nature into depth.

This shows that knowledge can be modified with time depending on the understanding of nature.

Stolb23 [73]

Explanation:

The enzymatic digestion of starch by amylase can be performed in the laboratory by several ways. But below there is an example of it

In order to have the best protein performance we have to set the temperature of the reaction to 37 celsius degrees.

  • Prepare a starch solution and spread into tubes
  • Prepare an amylase solution and spread into tubes
  • Adjust the pH to the optimum range with buffers, that is about 6.7 to 7.
  • Adjust the temperature of the tubes reaction to 37 celsius degrees.

The wrong temperature and the pH can unfold the enzymes and make the binding site inefficient.

  • Pipette the starch solution in the tubes with enzymes.

By the final step the glucose will be produced by the enzymatic digestion of amylase.

It's attached the scheme of the hydrolyzation of a starch strain

Question 2 the nurse is caring for a patient who is receiving diphenhydramine. the nurse notes that the patient has not voided f
Delvig [45]
Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) is an H1-antagonist, with unfortunate anti-cholinergic side effects: dry mouth (xerostomia), dry eyes (xerophthalmia), and also including urinary hesitancy and inability to void.
I would presume to think that the next best action would be to evaluate the bladder for bladder distension.
If overly distended, then a urinary (foley) catheterization may be warranted to void the patient. However, ordering a Foley first may be an unnecessary, uncomfortable, and likely painful procedure.
After examining the bladder externally (suprapubically), then fluids may be warranted.

 <span>A law is a theory that has explained a number of observed phenomena, and it has predicted a number of other phenomena which may as yet be unobserved.  

In that sense, a law is a theory that has not yet been proven wrong or given rise to any contradictions. 

A theory is just a theory until it has been proven true by experiments and observation</span>
