Abstract

The immune and nervous systems are two body structures that have different functions. Moreover, most people may not be able to readily identify the and the relationship between these two. While the immune system is responsible in protecting the body from destructive and invading pathogens, the nervous system is tasked to relay information to the brain. This process allows for the proper coordination of the different functions of the body. In general, the concept of the connection between the nervous and the immune systems stems from the theoretical idea of stress. Stress is denoted both as a physiological and ...

Questions and Answer

In order to find the connection between these three terms, first we need to define them. The rule of law, as per Zun, Nollkaemper and Peerenboom (12), denotes the legal principle that accounts for the need of a nation to be governed by law. In other words, it reflects the unlimited exercise of power through subjecting it to well-defined, as well as established laws; laws entrenched in a given constitution of the nation at hand. On the other hand, legitimacy denotes lawfulness of any given thing, and lawful here means it adheres to the laws of a given country’ ...

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTIONS AND MORAL DISENGAGEMENT

Abstract New intuitions into the genesis and impacts of entrepreneurs’ immoral measures can be obtained through observation to moral disconnection, a cognitive system that disables the self-regulatory process that prevents humans from actions, which are variable with their personal moral values (Gladston, 2016, p. 102). Outcomes that are acquired with a specimen of Chinese enterprises indicate that the trader’s motivation for monetary victory is linked positively to moral disconnection and that similar disengagement, alternately, is linked positively to unethical resolutions. However, enthusiasm to attain self-realization is not connected to either unethical decisions or moral disengagement (Siltaoja & Lähdesmä ...

Drugs can have many differing affects on people, whether their consumption leads to a positive or adverse response. All of this depends on the levels of enzymes in the body and how the variations of expression lead to these possible outcomes. The major theme of the two sources on this topic relate to the specific enzyme, CYP3A. CYP3A is a subfamily of cytochrome P450 enzymes, which serve to catalyze the addition of oxygen into molecules. Their ultimate role serves two spectrums: to convert foreign substances into less toxic products that can be eliminated from the body, or to convert ...

Essay

Immanuel Kant: Reason and Freedom Immanuel Kant argues that being purely objective or purely rational and being independently free are two peas in a pod. As Kant argued in his widely known book Groundwork of the Metaphysic of Morals, all human beings possess what he refers to as 'the idea of freedom' (Pasternack, 2002, 12). He builds his concept of categorical imperatives-- in the absence of which responsibility and morality would cease to exist-- upon the speculated idea that freedom is an omnipresent concept. Kant claims that it is clearly not possible for people to envision themselves as 'un-free' ( ...

Faith, being an intangible concept, is almost indefinable. But there are theologians, like Soren Kierkegaard and Paul Tillich, who dared to define faith and its role in everyday life. There are similarities and differences between the interpretation of Kierkegaard and Tillich of faith, and some critics are not contented with or opposed to their ideas, particularly as regards the subject-object division. This paper argues that a thorough, critical analysis of the ideas of Kierkegaard and Tillich regarding faith will demonstrate both theologians remaining devoted to the conflict between the finite world and the infinite, unbounded realm. Kierkegaard often emphasizes ...

Leadership in Action

The judiciary is one of the most important arms in a free and democratic society and in many states, its duties are well outlined in the constitutions. By structure, almost all constitutions design it as an independent body and operate within the requirements of the principle of separation of powers (Forsyth, 2015). A strong public image and reputation are crucial in the dispensation of its duty, and the decisions made culminate into a lasting effect on individuals and society. For instance, it could define public policy. Considering its significance, an incompetent and misleading system could produce far-reaching implications in ...

In the 1980s, this was symbolized by the so-called crack epidemic which ravaged the poorer and most fragile communities in the country. The issue of drug abuse in the United States is important because of how much it impacts the lives of people in all different ...

When considering culture, one does not typically think of law. However, if one thinks hard, they can see how law is in the background of many discussions of culture. This creates a very complex question within both modern and ancient society as to what the line has been or is between law and culture and whether law defines culture or culture defines law? This question is surely one that cannot be easily answered throughout the ages due to the aspects of both law culture that tend to go hand in hand and play off of each other. In fact, ...

Frederick Hoffman as well as Nathaniel Shaler, two of the early defenders of exploratory bigotry, were more critical of setting up race associations in the United States than the more considered, yet less mainstream, artists at the time such as Mary White Ovington or even W. E. B. DuBois. In spite of the fact that a few liberals endeavored to dismiss natural determinism instead of focusing on carrying out healing undertakings, even Franz Boas considered blacks to be mediocre, whereas Gunnar Myrdal diminished the significance of segregation amongst the police as well as law benches in the improvement of ...
