5. In your own words, please expound upon Phipps' assertion that "since truth is one, the conflict is not between science and re

ligion, but between arrogant scientists and dogmatic religionists who have difficulty living within their partial knowledge." Do you agree or disagree with the author? Why or why not? Make sure to support your views with quotes from the text.

I recommend you to try analyzing this excerpt in order to compile your own response towards the depicted situation. As for me, there is one stated truth: if someone is really wise and assured that his sphere of occupation is reasonable , this person would never persuade people to believe him/ her and stand on his/her side, because this person does not have doubts about that. Does not matter in what such people believe, they do not have to prove it to anyone who does not shares their views.

Describe the role of each of the following mechanisms in determining an individual’s eating habits and body weight.• Biological
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Biological Mechanism: This are things like hunger, appetite and taste of the individual. Every individual is unique and one's hunger and appetite determines how often and how much they eat respectively. The higher these are, the more likely they are to consume calories. The taste is even more relevant as it speaks to what kind of food the individual likes, is it high calorie or low? Is it fat rich or low fibre? Etc.

Learning Mechanism: This are relevant mostly to students. Studying patterns greatly affect eating habits and body weight. Time of sleep, stress patterns, balanced diet and even regularly missing a meal for a study group directly affects metabolism patterns. For instance, eating breakfast regularly boosts metabolism, and is good for weight balance.

Reinforcement: Certain foods are quite addictive and so reinforce their consumption by adjusting brain chemistry.

Body or Brain Chemistry: Studies done on Obesity have found that some individuals are susceptible to environmental food cues than others due to differences in brain chemistry that make eating more habitual and less rewarding. This means that not only do they eat habitually but that it is less satisfying. This is a major contributor to obesity. These Peculiarities in brain/body chemistry affect people's eating pattern and their weight.

Brain Structure Modeling: Uncontrolled eating is also positively associated with gray matter volume (GMV) of the cerebellum, and negatively associated with the Gray matter volume on the left side of the anterior cingulate cortex, middle cingulate cortex, and supplementary motor areas. What this means is that individuals with more gray matter volume in these areas of their brains are more presdusposedto excessive eating habits and this might lead to weight problems and it's related health risks.

Genetic Factors: These factors are genetic predisposition to eating disorders, genetic influence on taste, meal selection and appetite processing.

These also influence how much the individual ends up eating and what type of food they eat.

Cultural Factors: This include type of food found in one's culture, polite eating habits there, the ingredients used for cooking said culture. It also encorporatea the individual's class as food poverty is known to exist affecting about 14 million people. There's also available and affordability of healthy food options. This affects both eating habits and weight as less healthy junk food are more likely to be calorie dense.

PS: The eating pattern and body weight factors are closely correlated as the eating pattern explains what the weight situation might mirror.

The blood Group of Mother is O. The Blood Group of the Child is B. Man Exonerated If He to Blood Group?​
aalyn [17]

Answer:

If the mother's blood type is O, and the child's blood type is B, a man would be exonerated from paternity if he has blood type A or O.

Explanation:

In the above case, if a mother has blood type O and her child has blood type B, a man can be exonerated from paternity only if his blood type is A or O, and responsible if he is type B or AB.

The blood type is defined by the presence of surface antigens in the red blood cell, called A and B. The presence of each antigen is determined by a gene present on the parental chromosomes.

  • <em> </em><u><em>Blood type A</em></u><em> corresponds to the presence of gene A, and its genotypic expression can be A/A or A/O. </em>
  • <u><em>Type B blood</em></u><em>, whose genotype is B/B or B/O, is due to the presence of a gene containing the B antigen. </em>
  • <u><em>AB blood</em></u><em> —due to codominance— has one gene for A and another for B, with genotype A/B. </em>
  • <em>Blood type O, characterised by the absence of surface antigens, behaves like a recessive trait, which only manifests itself in the absence of surface antigens A and B. The genotype is O/O. </em>

By making a hypothetical crossing between mother and man, one can observe why he can be exonerated.

<u>Man with blood type O </u>

♂ O|O

♀ O|O

Alleles     O      O

O           O|O   O|O

O           O|O   O|O

The only possibility, in this case, is to have children with type O blood. No chance of children B.

<u>Male with blood type A </u>

♂ A|O

♀ O|O

Alleles     A        O

O            A|O    O|O

O            A|O    O|O

In this case there is a 50% chance that the children will be blood type A and 50% chance that they will be O. No chance of children B.

In the case of a man A|A the result is 100% probability of children A|O, and no probability of children B.

<em>So, a </em><em>man with blood types A (any genotype) and O, can be exonerated from paternity</em><em>, since it is </em><em>impossible for him to have a child of blood type B, when the mother is of blood type O</em>.

slavikrds [6]

The act of clapping your hands out in front of you with your elbows fully extended is achieved by contracting the pectoralis major muscles.

The pectoralis major muscle is a thick, large fan-shaped muscle that is located in the chest area of the human body. The pectoralis major is the most superficial muscle in the chest area and its functions is associated with the movement and rotation of the shoulder joint. Body movements such as extending the arm across the front part of the body, lowering the arm to the back part of the body, and rotating the upper arm in an inward manner are achieved by the pectoralis major muscles.
