Drawing from the seminar presentation, I have gathered that the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signals various pathway functions and regulates critical functions in the placenta such as mitochondrial respiration and nutrient transport. Placental amino acid transporter activities are significantly decreased in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) with recent experimental research evidence suggesting that the changes directly contribute to restricted fetal growth (Jansson, 2016). In this case, placental nutrient sensing is seen to have a pivotal role in the modulation on resource allocation between the mother and fetus thus affecting overall fetal growth, preventing overgrowth of the fetus and ensuring ...

Introduction

Taking measurements may require the conversion of the measured quantity to electrical quantity. Transducers are devices or elements that perform this function by transforming physical quantities such as quantities like sound, light, or temperature into electrical signals like current, voltage, or capacity. Transducers consist of inputs, sensing elements, transduction elements, signal processing, and electrical outputs. The inputs known as the measurands are the quantities, states, or properties that are to be translated into electrical outputs. The sensing elements accurately measure these input energies and sends the information to the transduction elements to be transformed into the desired form. The ...

Of course Descartes’ assertion is that to us, our mind is easily known than our body. He offers an example of the wax piece that is observed both in solid and liquid forms while supporting this particular idea. His claim that perception cannot be seen, touched or imagined but rather an inspection done by the part of the mind a lone sounds convincing especially as he points out the challenges in relying on physical body senses in understanding the nature exhibited by the wax. Basing on the arguments that are brought out in Meditation II, I tend to contend ...

The Meditations usually reflected on as the foundation of the modern philosophy of the West. Descartes breaks down the Aristotelian opinion that the entire knowledge is achieved through the senses and that the state of the mind must bear a resemblance to what they are about. He builds up a completely perception of mind, substance and opinions. Descartes employs a lot of skepticism especially in the First Meditation. He starts by asking how he can be sure of anything. He then builds up all types of imaginative and strange reasons as to why he should doubt his senses. Since that time, Philosophy ...
