While one might reasonably think that all children live their lives in a mess, this is particularly so for dyslexic children and students. They often have real difficulties with planning and thinking ahead to when a book or pen might be needed next (Dyslexia Symptoms in a Dyslexic Pupil or Student, n.d.). A very bright child who has dyslexia may not be identified until later because they are able to

functioning understanding of medical terminology is not only a requisite for application but a necessity for understanding and working within the fields of anatomy and physiology. The terms that encode the common lingua of medicine are, like the basic building blocks of any language, an operable set of tools that allow for the user to manipulate them for the purpose of conversation and comprehension. With their base in Latin

Synapse Competition and Elimination Throughout the growth and life of vertebrates and many animals, beginning even in the embryonic stages of development and continuing throughout adult life, a process known as synaptic competition takes place that eliminates certain underperforming synapses and neurons and leads to the dominance of a single motor neuron bringing even in embryonic stages (Wyatt & Balice-Gordon, 2003). This begins with the innervation of musculature during embryonic development

Wall-E's appreciation for the world and his Eden-like naivete (versus the terrible knowledge brought about by Eve's discovery of the living plant that will bring back humanity), shows how false and world-weary the humans have become in their consumerist bubbles. There is one particularly marked difference between Wall-E and the traditional Christian vision of divine grace offered in the Bible, thought. The concept of salvation is usually conceptualized as ascending

This is called acute adrenal failure or an Addisonian crisis. It can be fatal if it isn't cared for. The indications may include: Pain in the abdomen, lower back or legs Severe vomiting and diarrhea Dehydration Low blood pressure Loss of consciousness (Addison's disease, 2010). Secondary adrenal deficiency takes place when the pituitary gland fails to manufacture adequate adrenocorticotropin (ACTH), a hormone that rouses the adrenal glands to produce cortisol. If ACTH production is too

Reshaping the Sensory Environment Sensory Accuracy Survival of all animals depends on the accuracy with which sensory information is processed by the nervous system. Integrating this information in an efficient and effective manner depends on dynamic strategies that the nervous system relies on to determine the reliability and accuracy of the sensory inputs (reviewed by Zaidel, Turner, and Angelaki, 2011). This essay examines contemporary theories that attempt to explain how these strategies
