In recent years there has been an increased emphasis being placed on the study of natural convection in various systems. The majority of studies have been concerned with concentric geometries. The studies oriented toward eccentric geometries have been very few and very specialized. The major emphasis of the studies have...
A biographical study of Denison Olmsted, focusing upon his
own Christian world view and its connection with his various
activities in science, supports the view that religion served as a
significant factor in the promotion of science in America during this
time period. Olmsted taught physics, meteorology and astronomy
at...
Ashlock (1975) identified career education descriptive
factors as related to eight content areas of the Theory and
Practicum II program at Oregon State University. Based on
this research and the research literature, a Career Education
Competency-Based Instructional Model was devised. By
modifying the curriculum, this career education conceptual
model for...
The Purpose of the Study: The major purpose of this study was to determine if there were differences among the opinions of participating employers, previous participating employers, and non- participating employers concerning cooperative vocational education,. The hypothesis that there is no significant difference among the mean scores for the three...
Aerobic organisms have evolved many sensory mechanisms that allow
response to oxidants in the environment. One area of interest is the relationship
between the activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53 and the redox state of
thioredoxin. Human p53 activity is severely compromised in budding yeast lacking
thioredoxin reductase. Evidence...
By inverting EarthScope long-period magnetotelluric (MT) data from the southeastern United States (SEUS), we obtain electrical conductivity images that provides key insights into the geodynamics of this region. Significantly, we resolve a highly electrically resistive block that extends to mantle depths beneath the modern Piedmont and Coastal Plain physiographic provinces....
Replication associated protein and enzyme activity levels increase as cells enter
S-phase of the cell cycle and diminish as cells leave S-phase. Accordingly, replication
associated functions decrease as myoblasts withdraw from the cell cycle to terminally
differentiate. In an effort to understand signals effecting growth associated expression
of genes, the...
In budding yeast, many of the genes that encode enzymes required for DNA precursor synthesis (MCB genes) are expressed under cell cycle control in late G1/S. The relationship between MCB gene expression, dNTP synthesis and DNA synthesis was investigated by using α factor-synchronized Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The levels of all four...
