A Computer and a Tree
The biggest difference between a computer and a tree is that a tree is a living organism, while a computer may seem alive at some times, but it is really an inanimate object. It does not reproduce, and it does not go dormant in the fall, as many deciduous trees do. Trees also support other life, such as birds, insects, plants or fungus (like mistletoe), and create an ecosystem around them that is disturbed if the tree disappears. Trees might not seem as complex as computers, but they are made up of millions of cells and fibers that create a hard bark on the outside, and a fibrous interior that draws in water and nutrients and sends them out to all parts of the tree, including the branches and leaves. It is a pretty complex organism, and we as humans would be hard pressed to create such a complex "machine" with such a pleasing exterior. Computers are extremely complex, and are probably more complex than trees, but they are manufactured complexity by humans, not natural, and so they differ from the complex and sometimes mysterious complexity of the natural world. Computers do not have any of the five levels of organization of life, so they cannot be "alive" even though they react to our input.
There are five levels in the organization of life. The first is cells, which are the basic structural unit in all living things. Cells can be very different, such as blood cells, bone cells, skin cells, etc. Next is tissue and all living things have tissue, too. Tissue is made up of cells that are alike, like bone tissue and muscle tissue. Third are organs, and they are a vital part of the organization of life. They give life to many objects, and are made up of groups of tissues that work together, like the heart, the lungs, the liver, and so on. Fourth are organ systems, which are made up of groups of two or more tissues. Examples of these include digestive, circulatory, skeletal, reproductive, etc. Finally are the organisms. These are fully alive and can grow, reproduce, take in food and excrete it, etc. They are usually made up of organ systems, but they can be single celled.
Most fungi can also reproduce through sexual reproduction both with the same organism mixing gametes and with reproduction between two separate organisms. The cells of many fungi are primarily copies of each other, without differentiation of organs (except in the fruiting sections of the organism, such as the mushrooms and molds typically visible and known to humans). 6) Fungi are considered a separate kingdom for several reasons. They are different from
Introduction Digital Disease Detection, commonly referred to as digital epidemiology provided strategies and methods for allowing digital-technology users to monitor infectious disease and conduct surveillance. These strategies help in the understanding of concerns and attitudes regarding infectious diseases. The process begins with the basics, such as the availability of internet access, online sharing platforms and other digital devices. These sources offer huge amounts of data. It is important to note that
Algorithm is a computable set of steps arranged thus in order to achieve a certain end. There are various algorithms used in bioinformatics and not all are necessarily deterministic. Some are in fact known as randomized algorithms that incorporate randomness. Classification of algorithms in Bioinformatics Classification by purpose Each algorithm has a goal. The Quick Sort algorithm for instance sorts data in ascending or descending order, but algorithms in bioinformatics are grouped by
Machine Learning Method in Bioinformatics Bioinformatics involves an integrated approach involving the use of information technology, computer science to biology and medicine as professional and knowledge fields. It encompasses the knowledge associated with information systems, artificial intelligence, databases, and algorithms, soft computing, software engineering, image processing, modeling and simulation, data mining, signal processing, computation theory and information, system an d control theory, discrete mathematics, statistics and circuit theory. On the other
" Human development- behavioral shifts in human being that tae place during the course of an entire lifespan ("Human Behavior"). Risk Analysis- the activity of determining and analyzing the dangerous natural and human caused negative events. This analysis takes into consideration the risks these event pose to businesses individuals and governments. Within the domain of information technology risk analysis reports are utilized to tailor technology-related objectives with a an organization's business objectives.
22) (1854). The women are fighting at many fronts once they neglected their natural job of looking after families. Women have their national role as well but the role is often solely translated into economic role. Thus in her struggle to fulfill her economic duty to nation, she could not maintain balance between her family and work life. In her quest to be a better 'multitasking person," she often
