The Transporter Essays

Gender representation is solely created by social construction. Thus, people grow and learn by watching and doing as they see, and the common way to learn these constructions is through media. The common form of media that promotes these social views is film, and it promotes a patriarchal society. In Laura Mulvey’s article, “Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema (1975),” she explains that Hollywood film creates a binary that portrays women as passive and spectacles, while men are seen as dominant

Do people ever stop and think that a certain song has changed their mood completely? One minute they were mad and the next they are sad. Or that music can help people with illnesses and disabilities. How music can affect the brain, emotions, memory and so much more. Music plays a key part in today’s society. It really has an impact on just about everyone. So how does music affect everyone in its own way? In a scientific point of view researchers have wondered about the possible therapeutic and mood

Music therapy is the clinical use of music to achieve individual goals and improve relationships; it is also considered a form of Psychotherapy (Music Therapy Medicine). Melodies and harmonies are used to transport patients to new and safe places. The sweet rhythms brings peace and relaxation to stressed minds. Self-worth is found between each melodic note, and anxiety and depression are long forgotten. Memories that were once lost are now found, and medication is improved by this one simple healing

alluring, beautiful woman speaking at once, “This is not Heaven or Hell it is Limbo. This is where souls come after death. You do not have a body because you are dead and your soul is not tethered to any person, place, and or object. I’m the Soul Transporter of the Virgo Cluster which your galaxy lies in. My designated name is XYLA6236589108, but you may call me Xyla. I am here to help you select which planet you will be reincarnated on. You're emotions have been suppressed to make this whole process

functional proteins that somewhat help with lipids binding across the outer skin layer. According to Hautier, the most recent study demonstrates that ABCA12 protein can function as a lipid transporter to the epidermal layer of the skin. Mutations of this protein will result in decrease of functions of this lipid transporter, which lead to

EEA2 transporters are primarily found in the central nervous system (CNS) and are responsible for moving glutamate away from synapses shortly after it is released; the swift removal of glutamate is meant to prevent prolonged excitation of nerve cells (Foran & Trotti, 2009). With the dysfunction of EEA2 transporters, glutamate over excites the postynaptic membranes of nearby nerve cells—the over abundance of the

or analgesic drug. 2. At what receptors or signalling systems are these ligands active? d-Amphetamine: Targets the TAAR1 receptor on various types of monoaminergic neurons, increasing neurotransmission in the CNS. The main target is different transporters such as MAO and NET and inhibits them in order to increase the levels of neurotransmitters such as Dopamine. Chlorpromazine: Targets the dopamine receptors D1 to D5 in the CNS and inhibits amphetamine-induced behavioural changes. It has highest

in (KI) conditioned mice were used since 1990s however, hypothyroid and hyperthyroid mice were used prior to KO and KI. Thyroid hormone’s active form was found to be T3 binding to the nuclear receptor. Monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8) was stated to be the particular transporter for T3. MCT8 is located in pituitary gland, thyroid gland, liver, brain and kidneys. Allan-Herndon-Dudley Syndrome (AHDS) is result of mutation in MCT8. This experiment was performed on two different types

astrocyte is to keep neurons survive by regulating synaptic transmission. The process operates by uptaking glutamate presynaptically and postsynaptically. Manganese, as cofactor of glutamine synthetase, down regulates gene expression of glutamate transporter. Conversely, estrogen receptor agonist upregulates gene expression of glutamate

pairs with deoxyribose to form deoxycytidine (a DNA component). Cytarabine is an analogue of deoxcytidine and gets incorporated into DNA. By this mechanism, it kills cancer cells. MECHANISM OF ACTION Cells have an uptake transporter called human equilibrative nucleoside transporter (hENT1), which is important for uptake of ara-C into the cell. Inside the cell, ara-C rapidly gets activated by many phosphorylation steps to form ara-CTP (cytosine arabinoside triphosphate). When this ara-CTP is incorporated

The entire world was at war. The entire world. Canada started it by dropping a bomb on Australia, then in the middle of Europe. Turns out they've been planning this for years. The world becomes disastrous, with Canada, North America and South America against Europe and Australia. In the middle of this war, the defenseless part of Africa is blown to pieces, killing millions of people. The part of Africa that was not destroyed sided with Canada. Six people started a group, calling themselves

The transporter molecule, known as dopamine active transporter (DAT), which usually transports dopamine or norepinephrine, carries the methamphetamine to the nerve cell terminals (NIH, 2009). The methamphetamine causes an increased release of the neurotransmitters (dopamine or norepinephrine)

absorbs these simple saccharides (such as dextrin and maltose). These sugars, in their simplest forms (as glucose, fructose, or galactose), will enter the capillaries where they enter the blood stream via different transporters such as the GLUT transporter (a facilitative sugar transporter)(7). Fructose and galactose will enter the liver via the hepatic portal system where they are broken down to glucose. Glucose is already at an optimal state for use in tissues at the cellular level for use in glycolysis

is broken down into glucose by the small intestine. When glucose enters the bloodstream, the pancreas matches the right amount of insulin to glucose. Upon the arrival of insulin, it signals the cell to activate glucose transporters. Glucose then enters the cell because of transporters that pull it through the cell walls. People who have insulin deficiency, there is not enough insulin to maintain blood glucose concentrations

sodium level was low, water level in the body will rise and this will lead to swelling of the cells. In addition, Dilution of urine occurs in the thick ascending limb of loop of Henle by re-absorption of solutes by Na-K-2Cl transporter, in the distal convoluted tubule by NaCl transporter and in the collecting tubule by absence of ADH. Dysfunction in these steps maximum amount of urine that can be excreted and this will causes hyponatremia. Hyporvolemic: Here, there is decrease in total body water and

types of sugar. It is crucial for sports drinks to contain multiple forms of sugar such as fructose, sucrose, maltodextrin, and glucose. Each sugar has its own transporter to move it between the blood, intestines, and muscles of a body. Bergen describes that if there is “too much of one type of sugar at a time, it can max out its transporter and just sit in the stomach or intestines”. To prevent this and to maximize energy sustainability, a balance of sugars is needed. Lauren Wolf agrees with this

bloodstream by the villi, it circulates until it is absorbed by a cell in a process known as facilitated diffusion. This form of transportation, across a cell membrane, is useful, particularly in the absorption of glucose. Facultative transporters, in this case, glucose transporters cause the movement of glucose molecules from an area of high concentration, such as the surrounding blood supply, to a low concentration, which is, in this instance, the inside of the cell. Once absorbed by the cell, the first

dungeon and stays for a while and meets a guy named Bracken, who turns out to be a unicorn. Kendra goes on a mission to rescue Seth with a magical transporter. She and her friends get captured except for Warren. She ends up getting knocked out and brought to the Sphinx also. She talks and then goes to the dungeon. Then, Seth ends up with the transporter and leaves and heals a demon, who the steals the teleporter and the healer. Kendra then meets Bracken and Meets Warren and they

Telomerase also called telomere terminal transferase is a ribonucleoprotein that adds the polynucleotide “TTAGGG” to the 3 end of telomers. The human telomerase enzyme complex consists of two molecules each of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), telomerase RNA (TR or TERC), and dvskerin (DKC1)[35]. By using TERC, TERT can add a six-nucleotide repeating sequence, 5'-TTAGGG (in vertebrates, the sequence differs in other organisms) to the 3' strand of chromosomes. These TTAGGG repeats (with

pyruvic acid combines with coenzyme-A present in the mitochondria to form acetyl coenzyme-A, which is transported back into the cytoplasm. Choline is actively transported into the neuronal terminal from the synaptic cleft via sodium and choline transporters. An enzyme choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) in the nerve terminals synthesizes acetylcholine from choline and acetyl coenzyme A. After its synthesis, acetylcholine is packaged into vesicles and transported from the cytoplasm into synaptic vesicles
