The objective of this study was to quantitatively describe the intrusion of logging debris into artificial gravel streambeds during conditions of low stream flow with a stable streambed, and begin an
analysis of the effect of high flow and unstable streambeds. This study was initiated because prior studies indicated that...
This study compared two groups of home sewers in relation to
their sewing practices, perceived sewing competence, sex-role
concept, and selected demographic factors. A review of literature
indicated an increase in home sewing that began in the 1960's with
the greater availability of fabrics in a wider range of fibers,...
The goal of Inductive Learning is to produce general rules from a set of seen examples, which can then be applied to other unseen examples. ID3 is an inductive learning algorithm that can be used for the classification task. The input to the algorithm is a set of tuples of...
Some enzymes of the citric acid cycle and glycolytic pathway
in cell-free extracts of Vibrio marinus MP-1 were compared for
thermal lability. After one hour of moderate temperature exposure,
enzymes of both pathways rapidly lost catalytic activity. For all
but one enzyme, 50 percent remaining activity occurred near an
averaged...
The purpose of this study was to determine if the preferences in
clothing fabrics and preferences in home furnishing fabrics are
similar or different in color, design size, and line. The
relationships of age, education, and training in color and design to
agreement of clothing fabrics and home furnishing fabrics...
Oxytocin is a hormone well know for the stimulation of childbirth and milk letdown in mammals. Large levels of the hormone are also released during angiogenesis in the growth of the corpus luteum (CL), a temporary endocrine gland that forms on the ovaries following ovulation. Levels of oxytocin decline after...
Prostaglandin F₂α (PGF₂α), a stimulatory hormone of luteal oxytocin
secretion, is known to activate protein kinase C (PKC); however, the
intracellular signals that promote exocytosis of oxytocin remain to be
elucidated. Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS), a
protein specifically phosphorylated by PKC, crosslinks actin filaments
associated with the inner...
