The skeletal system forms the rigid internal framework of the body. It consists of the bones, cartilages, and ligaments. Bones support the weight of the body, allow for body movements, and protect internal organs. Cartilage provides flexible strength and support for body structures such as the thoracic cage, the external ear, and the t...

Gracias por estar aquí José es un honor tenerte. El propósito de este estudio es recopilar y documentar informacion de Bomberos puertorriqueños sobres sus expe...

Over the centuries, genetic improvement of plants has been achieved by utilization of the genetic variability from naturally occurring mutations. Although naturally occurring mutations can still be a valuable source of novel genes, there are instances in which none of the available germplasm of a plant species has a trait needed by ...

is the stage of development at which individuals become sexually mature. Though the outcomes of puberty for males and females are very different, the hormonal control of the process is very similar. In addition, though the timing of these events varies between individuals, the sequence of changes that occur is predictable for male and ...

Commands will serve as tools that complete defined tasks within a MATLAB code. Often represented as puzzle pieces in introductory programming guides, commands enable the code to interact with the user, finish tasks in response to user inputs, or serve as a road map within the code. By piecing together commands with instructions a “map”...

One of the main challenges in plant breeding is the development of the best marker-assisted breeding method for complex traits. At the present, marker-based approaches are limited in their ability to detect and quantify marker-trait relationships, in particular for traits that are under the influence of gene x gene and gene x environme...

The professional materials module focuses on the development of a CV, an email template, and a personal statement. Here we will work through several rounds of revision based on peer and instructor feedback, as well as development in course workshops....

: Food is scarce and times have been difficult. A mother robin must make a difficult decision for the future of her three baby birds. She must decide if she is able to care, provide for, and nurture her babies. Food is sometimes hard to find, especially when living in difficult times....

In researching the market, your team needs to understand the customer’s experience(s) with existing products on the market. These competitors are then assessed using CRs. The idea is for your design team to understand the customer’s current experiences, or what products they are using to satisfy their requirements. This gives the op...

Variables are critical pieces of MATLAB codes that users can assign values to when writing scripts. This chapter will address uses of variables to solve algebraic operations and to analyze data. The following image shows an example of the format for creating a variable. In this example, the variable’s name is the letter ’n’ and the var...
