Sir Charles Sherrington’s observation has provided evidence for the existence of synaptic gaps in which this is the minute space provided in between of the target cell and the cell membrane of the axon terminal. This could be seen from his observation where the impulses took unexpectedly long time to travel a neural pathway.

BLUEFIN TUNA: replace with pole or troll-caught Yellowfin tuna, Albacore tuna, Wahoo
Bluefin is the king of the sea. It is the fattiest, richest fish in the sea. Bluefin’s unique flavor contributes to its great appeal. However, we have eaten our way through this species’ ranks and have forfeited our ability to consume this fish. It is a taste that may be lost for many generations to come, maybe forever. However, in most preparations Bluefin can be substituted by pole or troll-caught Yellowfin tuna which, although not quite as elegant, is a great eating experience. For preparations such as grilled tuna, try to seek out pole or troll-caught Albacore or even the tuna cousin Wahoo.

ATLANTIC FARMED SALMON: replace with Wild Alaska Salmon
Substituting for farmed Atlantic Salmon is easy: look for the great quality salmon options from Alaska. All five species of Salmon from Alaska are great stand-ins for farmed salmon. Experiment with the different species to find the one that you like the best. King Salmon is the richest, Sockeye the gamiest, Coho the most balanced, Pink the lightest, and Chum is the most similar to farmed Atlantic Salmon in flavor.

IMPORTED SHRIMP: replace with Oregon Pink shrimp, Alaska shrimp species, or some U.S. farmed shrimp
There are some FANTASTIC shrimp out there that nearly no one knows about. Oregon Pink Shrimp are a delicious product that is very inexpensive and very convenient. Available all year round as a frozen product, these work well in soups, salads, cocktails, sandwiches, nearly every preparation you can imagine. They are smaller than the warm water shrimp but are clean and sweet in flavor and a real treat. Alaska coonstripe, northern and sidestripe shrimp, and spot prawns are all rated “green”. Coonstripe shrimp and spot praws are caught with pots/traps, unlike most shrimp which are caught with destructive bottom trawls. There are some farm raised shrimp options available from U.S. producers which are great eating. They are only a little more expensive and you can eat well knowing that you are supporting not only eco-friendly practices but also helping to create jobs for American

Explanation:

The main aim of the IRB is to safeguard the right of the human subjects used for the purpose of research conducted by the governmental authority. It also emphasizes over the protection of the researchers from illegal complaints. The risks to the human subjects can be minimized by using procedures which cause no harm to them and a detail consent of the research practice should be taken from these subjects by informing the purpose of research.

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.
