The Climate  Theory that the ‘Dark Ages’ may well have been caused by volcanic eruptions that significantly changed weather patterns  Climate conditions consisted of missed summers and long stretches of extreme cold.  The worse conditions were during period 536-540’s; the implication from many bits of evidence are that the world suffered from  1) extreme cold  2) reduced sunlight  3) crop failure  This in turn would have led to starvation and significant dea...

CONCEPT Commitments of Kantian Deontology 2 Consider the following argument: (1) Mortgage rates are at an all time low. (2) It is therefore a good time to buy a home. (3) Also, property values have been increasing over the last five years, and (4) a number of new homes in my neighborhood are for sale. Which of the four numbered statements is the conclusion? 3/14/2021 Sophia :: Welcome 2 1 3 4 CONCEPT Premises and Conclusions 3 Why is utilitarianism an objectivist or relativist th...

Question 1 0 out of 2 points Questions #1-3. A certain protein can bind one of two ligands: ligand A or ligand B. Below is a plot of the fractional saturation (Y) versus [ligand] for ligand A and l igand B. Question #1: By simply inspecting the graph, what is an approximate Kd(dissociation constant) for ligand A? Indicate appropriate units; briefly explain how you arrived at your answer. Selected Answer: Kd= [P][L] / [PL] = [50][60]/[50x60] =1 Correct Answer: ~ 50 uM (the Kd is the [ligand] at w...

2. Procedure 1. With a micrometer caliper determine the mean diameter of the steel specimen near its mid-length. Assume the shearing proportional limit is 0.6 of the tensile proportional limit and the shearing modulus of rupture as equal to the tensile strength. Check with the instructor to ascertain tensile strength of the specimen. 2. Compute loading increments that will give at least 10 observations below the shearing proportional limit, several close together near the proportional limit,...
