They are offered to students based on their GPAs; one way of measuring merit in schools. Merit-based scholarships help school children out of worse economic environments where money is not abundant to gain a opportunity to get into a good college based on their good grades.

The right answer is academic achievement.

At any age, children have behaviors that adults would like to see changed. In both schools and private practice, many educators and psychologists use reward systems to help them achieve this.

Reward systems can take different forms: motivation chart, token bags, reinforcement techniques.

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Smooth and cardiac

Explanation:

Smooth and cardiac muscles are both involuntary.

This means we do not consciously control them. Smooth muscles are found, for example, in the esophagus, and small intestine. The cardiac muscles are found in the heart.

The skeletal muscles are those that we control consciously, such as the muscles for moving our arms and legs.

Wei W, Zhao H, Wang A, et al. A clinical study on the short-term effect of berberine in comparison to metformin on the metabolic

marshall27 [118]

A group of Chinese women with PCOS who were receiving treatment saw several metabolic and hormonal imbalances improve after taking BBR. The primary consequences may be connected to the modifications in body composition in obesity and dyslipidemia. For the evaluation of the possible beneficial metabolic effects of BBR in women with PCOS, additional controlled trials are required.

PCOS:

Objective: Insulin resistance is a common metabolic and reproductive condition called polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) (IR). A quinoline derivative alkaloid known as berberine (BBR) has been utilized as an insulin sensitizer and is isolated from Chinese medicinal herbs. There may be a therapeutic benefit for PCOS from BBR. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of BBR and metformin (MET) on the metabolic characteristics of PCOS-affected women.
Design and methods: Ninety nine PCOS and IR patients were randomly assigned to one of three therapy groups: BBR+ compound cyproterone acetate (CPA; $n=31$ ), MET $+$ CPA $(n=30)$ , and placebo $+$ CPA $(n=28)$ for $3$ months. Before and after the treatment period, metabolic and hormonal measures as well as the clinical characteristics of the women were evaluated.
Results: Reduced waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio (WHR;P< $0.01$ ), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC; P< $0.05$ ), as well as increased levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG; P< $0.05$ ) were all observed following treatment with BBR as compared to MET. Similarly, BBR treatment decreased WHR, fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin, homeostasis model evaluation for IR, area under the insulin curve, TC, LDLC, and TG (P< $0.05$ ), while increasing HDLC and SHBG (P< $0.01$ ) as compared to placebo.
