Visual agnosia can drastically affect one’s ability to learn. For example, a child with visual agnosia may find it difficult to recognize letters and numbers, thereby making it difficult to learn to read and perform other tasks imperative for retaining information learned. To compensate for the

The subject had experienced a 60-minute habituation session in an operant chamber, but was otherwise naïve to the chamber. The subject was water deprived for 23 hours prior to the study. This created an establishing operation for water as a positive reinforcer. 0.1ml of water was delivered using a solenoid delivery system into the water reservoir on a variable temporal schedule of 90 seconds. Reinforcement delivery was accompanied by the sound of water dropping. The study was terminated following 11 reinforcements. The latency between delivery of the reinforcer and subsequent drinking of the reinforcer was recorded. If the subject failed to drink before the succeeding reinforcer was delivered, this delivery

To begin with, before studying this English module, my skills in presenting information in chart format was insufficient. In this visual literacy assignment, students were evaluated on their ability to interpret illustrations as well as various kinds of data and the presentation thereof in a meaning full way. Compared with the first assignment, I scored the highest mark for this one. However, the course material gave me the much-needed background information on creating a meaningful analysis of vast sets of data. For example, the type of data presented in a pie chart will be different from the data presented in a bar or line chart. This was incredibly beneficial information and provided me a new perspective on the creating of charts. Consequently,

I work in the healthcare setting and I chose to view the medical professional team. In my opinion, the individuals in the first slide looked professional, but there was still an opportunity for improvement. In the first picture, most of the individuals looked unhappy and have a body language of not having any desire to be at work. The staff looked serious and they can be viewed as unfriendly. I felt that the individuals in the first slide are in the interactional territory where people meet and pass, and the boundaries are not permanent (Prabhu, 2010). Likewise, nobody in the first slide was wearing an name badge for easy identification. The males wearing ties looked professional and nicely groomed. I believe that the group conveyed a professional image by their clean, neat, and well-groomed overall appearance. The ladies in the first slide were wearing light make up that complimented their natural skin color and tone.

The ChemMagic software program was used for this experiment. The compounds were tested one at a time. First was the compound butane. The draw tab was chosen on the program. Butane was then drawn in the program and the model was loaded. A 3D butane compound was projected on the screen and the optimize tab was selected. Next, the rotate bond tab was selected so that the C2-C3 bond would rotate. After the bond was selected, the bonds were then moved to rotate in intervals of 10 starting with 0 degrees. After the bond was rotated in the desired increment, the energy tab was selected and the angle and energy level was then recorded. These steps were followed for every compound each being rotated in intervals of 10 until 360 degrees was reached.

On the one hand, whether primate paintings have the link with humans evolutionary histories. According to “biological anthropologist Anne Zeller's” (par.7) experiment which compared “hundreds of young children's drawings to drawings by apes.” (par.7) As a result, both human and nonhuman primates make conscious colors and “spatial choice.” (par.7) Furthermore, the making marks may link to “animals’ sense of communication.” (par.7) On the another hand, painting can be animals’ mental stimulation. As we know, captive animals do not have many recreation equipments in their cages so that painting is a good method for them to relax. Besides, the process that animals learn how to draw can promote the relationship between animals and caretakers. For

Browne (2010) situates her argument of the racialization of surveillance by focusing on how surveillance technologies place emphasis on classification of the visual aspects of one’s identity. She draws heavily from Paul Gilroy’s (2000) concept of “Epidermal thinking” – a concept referring to the modern discourse of visual judgements and how they can racialize practices in society. The concept of otherness is important to epidermal thinking, as prototypical whiteness and the ‘Other’ are examples of how skin is categorized through visual judgements. Such visual judgements translate to surveillance in terms of controlling the freedom and mobility of individuals by means of profiling those with bodies that deem them “out-of-place” (Browne 2010).

I could tell that this car crashing is really strong because they crashed so hard that those cars fell off. Imagining that those cars would fell off and hit the bottom cars gives me nightmares. If I were in the bottom lane, I would be terrified. Technology are good but it could create a horrified accident like in the picture. There are many clounds in the sky, it looks more like smoke. The picture is black and white so it gives out a depression feeling. It is dangerous for the bottom lane car. If I were in the bottom lane, I would be terrified. It is scary how danger could be right next to

The research group carried out a genome wide association to scan for sequence variants that influence hair color, eye color and skin color in the europeans. Pigmentation in humans is attributed to the number type and cellular distribution of melanosomes. When different number of melanosomes are produced, they cause the differences in the skin pigmentation. The experiment was done with a sample of people from Iceland and Holland. The results of this experiment showed how the samples were broadly similar despite the fact that icelanders have more red hair, freckles and green eyes. They carried out two scans for each eye color, hair color and skin pigmentation traits. There were two overlapping regions on the MC1R on chromosome 16 and one of them is near a strong candidate for a strong

The result that were obtained with this experiment proofs that the hypothesis is somewhat correct. Blashill and Wilhelm found out that males who had a distorted body image, seeing themselves as underweight and also overweight, were the ones who reported to be more depressed. What was really surprising for them in the results is that the levels of depression on the undistorted group that perceived themselves as underweight were not further apart from the ones who perceived themselves as underweight because of a body image distortion. Another founding that they made is that this stays for a very long period of time. This experiment went on for thirteen years and during all this time this reminded constant.

As the hypothesis predicted, the rate and the duration of facial displays do influence the outcome of a contest between two male Betta splendens. In fact, it was found that the male which carried out more facial displays for longer was, on average, defined as the winner of a dyadic conflict.

Dr. Brad Postle’s research investigates activation and information processing in working memory and attention. I did not realize that working memory could further be classified into visual working memory. His research uses fMRI to detect relative brain activity level during visual working memory tasks that require subjects to analyze speed and the direction of motion. I think it is clever that neuroscience researchers virtually “inflate” brains to see the brain activation in all brain areas, including sulci, which are otherwise somewhat difficult to visualize on a regular fMRI scan.

I found this very interesting poster called “The Human Experiment”. It features an infant baby in a diaper, surrounded by toxic household cleaning products. My first thought about this poster were that we are poisoning our future generation with common household products. “Welcome to the lab” as it is subtitled, interpreted to me, that we are basically using our youth as lab rats. With the baby in the center of the poster it symbolizes youth, innocence, and the unknown. We are breathing in these chemicals in our homes which could potentially be causing great harm. Things like cancer, lung problems, issues with pregnancy and decreasing life expectancy. If we expose people to chemicals do we really know the long-term effects

Panoramic radiography is a technique that produces an image of the entire dentition of the maxilla and the mandible with the alveolar bone, the sinuses, and the temporomandibular joints on a single radiograph. This technique is based on the principle of tomography, which records images of different structures within a plane, while blurring the structures outside that plane. Panoramic radiographs are useful to provide a wider diagnostic with reduced patient radiation dose. Also eliminates the mounting time and the infection control protocol. The disadvantages are related with the image quality and involve magnification, distortion and poor definition (Thomson, 2012).
