The painting called the “Miraculous Draft of Fishes” painted by Konrad Witz is quite remarkable and beautiful. He firstly creates an artwork that has a narrative attached to it. Secondly, the painting describes the biblical references, themes, and symbolism through dissecting the piece as a whole as well in small sections for the viewer to see. Thirdly, this painting shows the similarities and differences in the composition in regards to the type of painting and parts of the painting. Fourthly, the artist demonstrates many techniques to portray that the painting has a style of realism. Lastly, the artist emphasizes Jesus heavily in the painting to show that he is the most important person in the piece.

Imagine surviving a fatal experience only to be punished and blamed for a death you could do nothing about. Now, imagine losing a girlfriend and almost losing a sister and having to live with the grief with no one to share your pain.

Because of Isabel’s death, Maddy 's relationship with her brother became a series of punishments, however, after Sage feels guilty for killing Maddy 's fish, they finally opened up to each other and their relationship strengthens.

The death of Edgar Allen Poe has been a mystery quite sometime as the details surrounding it are very few and the few we do have are quite vague. Through all of the unclear details two theories have arisen. The first theory of Poe’s death was alcohol poisoning. Poe was found outside of a tavern in a disoriented state of mind and for an unknown reason was wearing someone else’s clothes. He was taken to a nearby hospital where he was put into a room where he could recover from his apparent drunken state. The next morning when the doctor check on him they realized something was quite wrong as his condition had gotten worse. He had also now become delirious and had tremors throughout his limbs, not violent but very shaky and , was constantly going

Ever since I remember I have loved reading. I would stay up past my curfew reading with my book light, getting yelled out by my mom because I had school the very next day. It all started with my father reading me Dr. Seuss’s “One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish” and I would pick up on the words because we would read this book every night, and before I knew it I was reading it to him. I was around 5 at this time, and I remember that because my sister was still in her mother's belly and I would read to her from the outside world. When my sister was born we shared the same bedroom, and I would read to her before I went to bed. Starting second grade I was one of the only kids reading chapter books that were meant for older children. Everyone in my

Fewer action potentials are recorded at R2 when TTX is applied between R1 and R2 because TTX blocked the voltage gated channels in R2.

Myasthenia gravis is a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease characterized by varying degrees of weakness of the skeletal muscles of the body. It occurs when communication between nerve cells and muscles becomes impaired. This impairment prevents crucial muscle contractions from occurring, resulting in muscle weakness. Normally when impulses travel down the nerve, the nerve endings release a neurotransmitter substance called acetylcholine. Acetylcholine travels from the neuromuscular junction and binds to acetylcholine receptors which are activated and generate a muscle contraction. In myasthenia gravis, antibodies block, alter, or destroy the receptors for acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, which prevents the muscle contraction

Red tide is a generic term for harmful algal bloom or HAB. Red tides occur as a result of explosion of algae population such as dinoflagellates. The expansive population concentrates along the water column and cluster in one area of the ocean, this results in the change of color of the surface water. Red tides occur along coastal areas.

His dizziness which accompanied his angina, was probably caused by the nitroglycerin, and or the consumption of the

The purpose of my paper is to discuss the history of Congenital Analgesia and its presence in the human body. Congenital Analgesia, also referred to as Congenital Insensitivity to Pain or CIP, is a rare neurological disorder of the nervous system that prevents a person from being able to feel pain. Congenital Analgesia results from the “lack of ion channels that transport sodium across sensory nerves. Without these channels, nerve cells are unable to communicate pain” (Hamzelou, 2015, p. 1). While the body does not respond to extreme changes in temperature or bodily harm and damage, those with Congenital Analgesia can still process normal sensations such as body-to-body contact or joint movement.

The National Institute of Health reports that nearly 48 million Americans get sick each year from eating contaminated food. The illness is seldom fatal, but seniors are not only at greater risk of becoming ill from contaminated foods, but they are at greater risk of severe complications. The two best-known causes of the illnesses are the E.coli and salmonella bacteria.

A patient was bought into the emergency room for emergent care following a motor vehicle accident. The parents or guardian of the 16-year-old male were not present because he had recently escaped from a nearby detention center. The doctor administered what he considered life saving measures without adult consent. Patient was administered 40 mg of methadone because he reported that he was in a methadone treatment program and suffering from withdrawals. Patient was alert and oriented at the time of questioning. Before being transferred to the medical-surgical unit, the patient denied a blood transfusion. The next morning the patient was not responsive to stimuli, he was later pronounced dead. After his death, information was presented

They brought him to do an autopsy to see how exactly he died. They begin the autopsy with a “Y” incision. Once they cut him open, they realized the inside of him was cooked alive. The flesh was discolored.“It was dark brown at the top of the “Y” incision, less so at the the groin,” (94). The fat was also discolored. “Instead of bright yellow, it had turned a sickly gray-brown,” (94). Dr Moore discovered that the ribs were dry, as well. They took out the heart and it felt harder than normal despite the fact that the victim had no heart disease. They slice the heart to discover that it has been cooked alive. They weigh the heart. “Three hundred and sixty grams... normal weight,” (100). Next organ they work on is the lung. Dr. Moore gindes no evidence of smoke inhalation. The upper portion of the lung also seems to be cooked. “There is a variegation in the color, too. Brown at the top, more red at the bottom,” (101).

People who suffer with muscle pain often turn to treatments that involve muscle relaxants. Skeletal muscle relaxants are categorized as a heterogeneous group of drugs. As a class, they are structurally and pharmacologically diverse. These drugs are used to stabilize muscle excitability, decrease pain, and improve motor function. They employ their pharmacologic effect centrally at the level of the spinal cord, the brainstem, or the cerebrum. They have no impact, if any effect at the muscle fiber level. Muscle relaxants can be divided into two main categories; antispasmodic and antispasticity agents. This class of drugs are used to treat spasms from peripheral musculoskeletal conditions, and to decrease spasticity in neurological disorders, such
