Learning a foreign language provides learners with the opportunity to gain knowledge concerning linguistic contents and socio-cultural aspects. On the other hand, it allows learners to reach the high levels of proficiency required by educational institutions to access any career. Thus, learners who want to reach those levels need to go through a language teaching process. Moeller and Catalano (2015) acknowledged that “Foreign language learning and teaching refer to the teaching or learning of a nonnative language outside of the...

The structure and culture of sporting institutions often reproduce hegemonic masculinity, racism, and gender inequalities (Cooky & Dworkin, 2013). Sex becomes a binary meaning; there are only two sexes, male and female (Cooky & Dworkin, 2013). With that being said, there has been no recognized place within competitive sports for athletes who exist outside of the dichotomous sex categories...

The Foundation of CRISPR Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats or CRISPR as it is more commonly known would not be possible without the many scientific discoveries that enabled scientists to understand DNA. Many discoveries enabled this, such as Watson and Crick and Rosalind Franklin, however the most important was the use of recombinant DNA.The first use of recombinant DNA for humans occurred in 1986 when Pablo D. T. Valenzuela created the first recombinant vaccine(Broad Institute 2018). This vaccine was...

Literature driven synthesis In everyone’s body there is an internal clock that releases chemicals in a daily rhythm. This is otherwise known as a circadian rhythm. The suprachiasmatic nucleus in the hypothalamus of the brain is suggested as where this circadian rhythm is controlled (Beersma & Gordijn, 2007). The circadian cycle also controls basic components of exercise. These components include muscular strength, flexibility, body temperature, and vigilance and may be altered by the disturbance of sleep (Famodu, 2014). It is...

Abstract In this paper, we introduce genomics, study of the structure, function, evolution, mapping, and editing of genomes. Genomics determines the sequence of molecules that make up DNA of an organism. Here, the genomes play a vital role. Genomes can be encoded as well as decoded. So, here we see how to decode a genome with the machine learning concept. Machine learning, the field which is concerned with the development and application of computer algorithms that improve with experience, provides...

From an evolutionary perspective, we all come from different environments and genetic combinations. These factors, along with many others, influence the development of humans. Life History Theory categorizes two different life strategies between slow and fast lifestyles. To distinguish one another, fast life strategists derive from unstable, unpredictable, and uncontrollable environments. Slow life strategists derive from stable, predictable, and controllable environments. These environmental conditions lead to different population densities to each’s own respective environment (Figueredo & Wolf, 2009). Each have...
