Substitution

How was the LOX mutation found in TAAD? LOX is the major cross-linking enzyme in the extracellular matrix of blood vessels, and loss of its activity results in blood vessel dilation and rupture. Even though there is no known human disease associated with an alteration in the LOX gene, a variety of genetic disorders had been linked to this mutation. Examples of these are Menkes disease, occipital horn syndrome, Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm and Dissection (TAAD), among others. The LOX mutation was

Sustainability of the competitive advantage by Dell: Dell’s competitive advantages have been in: 1. Pricing 2. Customization 3. Just in time delivery The competitive advantage of these resources and hence the sustainability is as follow: The pricing of Dell has been very competitive. The direct model of sales has been the reason for such low price. It refers to the fact that Dell does not use the retails channel, but sells its PCs directly to customers through its website, Dell.co.in. This way

Cities seem to be less impacted by a professional sports team because of things like opportunity costs, substitution effects, crowding out, and leakages (Baade, Baumann, Matheson, 2008, p. 797). These economists’ theory is that if there weren’t sports teams, people would still choose to spend money on other entertainment or attractions (Baade, Baumann, Matheson, 2008, p. 797). How the substitution effect works in sports is you imagine a city has a game, which supposedly tons of tourists and outsiders

I am writing with the intention of describing the math skills that I acquired prior to taking the Math 2414 course. I further intend to explain how my previous math skills have helped me to succeed in the calculus II course. As I intend to pursue a career as an electrical engineer, the Math 2414 course has provided me with skills that I will need in order to succeed in many of my future science courses, as well as in my career as an engineer. Prior to Math 2414, my knowledge of mathematics consisted

The unit we finished is called Cookies. The unit is about the system of inequalities, system of equations, using constraints, graphing, finding the feasible region, soling for the profit/optimal line, and finding the P.O.I. We began the unit learning about solving for ( x,y ) then subbing 0,0 to find out if they were true or false and graphing them to find the feasible region. Then we learned how to solve a system of equations using two different methods. In this unit we learned how to graph a system

The threat of substitution is also affected by switching costs – that is, the costs in areas such as retraining, retooling and redesigning that are incurred when a customer switches to a different type of product or service. It also involves: • Product-for-product substitution (email for mail, fax); is based on the substitution of need; • Generic substitution (Video suppliers compete with travel companies); • Substitution that relates to something that people can do

New Urbanism is an urban planning and design movement that began in the United States in the early 1980s. The different between the older form and “New Urbanists” is in many areas. People started to concerned with “human scale” neighborhood. And there are mixed-use neighborhoods and mixed-income neighborhoods’ idea came up. And the public transportation is expanded to go more places. More and more sidewalks and bike lanes show up in the city because the goal of the new urbanism are to reduce dependence

The recoverable resource base has been considerably expanded by the development of unconventional gas reserves, most significantly in the United States. The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that conventional gas reserves are equal to around 120 years at 2010 levels, and when unconventional gas is added this figure rises to nearly 250 years. The remaining resources of gas can comfortably meet IEA projections of demand beyond at least 2035. The twenty first century has seen the rapid

Literature Review This literature review is focused on the characteristics, prevention, assessment, and intervention of TCS. An assortment of different sources were utilized in the collection of information regarding these areas, including journal articles, texts, and websites. Though, texts and web information were both used in a limited capacity. The literature review specifically focuses on the effect the syndrome has on the speech and language of affected individuals. I. Characteristics Treacher

a diazonium coupling reaction will occur. A diazonium coupling is an electrophilic aromatic substitution where the electrophile is the terminal nitrogen atom of the diazonium salt. The diazonium salt from p-nitroaniline will first be synthesized. This is achieved by reacting the p-nitroaniline with HCl and nitric acid. Secondly, the azo violet will be prepared from the electrophilic aromatic substitution
