Socrates taught that truth was absolute and knowable and that a clear distinction should be made between dialectic, the question and answer method of obtaining the one correct answer, and rhetoric, which does not seem interested in the universal validity of the answer but only in its persuasiveness for the moment.
Definition for Socrates
going to school to obtain a degree does not count as the equivalent of working and thus does not make a parent eligible for TANF payments
they are stopping parent from gettin a degree if they wanted to because they won't support people who are trying to go to school and get a degree. this goes back on why they are poor and may remain poor in the first place because their job isn't promised and they won't get as much education as needed/ believed to.
Neolithic Revolution

dyneines and kinesins
This is similar to what I know about DNA and how the DNA Polymerase moves from 5' to 3', similar to how motor proteins move from the + to - (or vice versa) end of microtubules. #lightbulb-moment
In a process known as phagocytosis
Are lysosomes the only cell in the endomembrane system that can do phagocytosis?
single membranes
Does the fact that peroxisomes have single membranes help with their function within the human body?
two membranes,
Are all cases of double membranes a case of endosymbiosis, or are there some exceptions?
Secondary active transport
Is secondary active transport similar to diffusion since they both rely on gradients to facilitate their movement? #just-curious
Passive transport
I know passive transport typically only occurs with small and nonpolar molecules. Is this pattern the rule for transport within cells or are there important exceptions to remember?
passive diffusion and facilitated diffusion.
Both are using the idea of going from high to low concentration. However, passive diffusion can happen without the help of a protein while facilitated needs one.
The key point is that Na2CrO4 (sodium chromate), Na2Cr2O7 (sodium dichromate), K2CrO4(potassium chromate), K2Cr2O7 (potassium dichromate), and CrO3 (chromium trioxide) are all alike in one crucial manner: when they are combined with aqueous acid, each of them forms H2CrO4, and ultimately it’s H2CrO4 which does the important chemistry. Unfortunately I rarely see this point explained in textbooks. I remember this causing some confusion for me when I took the course. The K or Na ions present are just spectators.
this is a really good point explained about chromic acid

A permutation i
So if you are trying to find the permutations of a, b, and c, they would be abc, acb, bca, bac, cba, and cab. The combinations would be just abc because order does not matter. The combinations of choosing 2 elements out of a b and c would be ab, cb, and ac.

their profit only being 3% is wild I would think that they would have more income.
4 billion people live without internet
I hate to type this, but those people probably are way more productive then the people that do have internet.
I had lots of books at home.
I personally didn't have a lot of books at home till after high school. so, my question is did anyone have a bookshelf in their room or house?
The EBSCO Ebook Collection, Films on Demand, and other specialized databases, the district pays about $285,000/year. On top of this, each college is afforded a local budget to purchase additional books and resources that are housed locally at the campus. Cosumnes River College has received about $75,000/year to acquire these additional resources, though our budget was cut this year because of the COVID-19 crisis and the financial impact it has had across the state.
I am glad they compared prices this really makes you see the bigger picture.
There is a value placed on academic information (both monetary and societal value). And in academia especially, only a privileged few have access to certain types of scholarly writings.
I think it's important that he stated this because i don't think as people we hear it enough it's defiantly something we know, but turn a blind eye to it.
I mentioned that academics have been pushing for more open access.
Schools deserve this and more.
Students, even those in high school, enjoy information privileges that aren't afforded to the general public.
This is very true. My High School provides all college books for free that most college attendees would have to purchase for an unrealistic price.
This leads directly to the value and privilege of information.
It's hard to hear a statement like " privilege of information"
And in academia especially, only a privileged few have access to certain types of scholarly writings.
This seems to be an issue really everywhere, It's truly unfair.
This is why librarians and your instructors are constantly asking you to take advantage of your academic privilege by using the library databases.
I will always keep this in mind now. I'm glad my scool has the ability to provide this for me.
When you learn more about how the system is working, it can make you very angry with the publishers.
If we learned how every. system around us truly worked, I think we would all be more than upset.
naked” gaseous ions are more stable the larger the associated R groups, probably because the larger R groups can stabilize the charge on the oxygen atom better than the smaller R groups. They do this by polarization of their bonding electrons, and the bigger the group, the more polarizable it is.
Acidity of Alcohols in gas phase
However, in the gas phase the order of acidity is reversed, and the equilibrium position for lies increasingly on the side of the alkoxide as R is changed from primary to secondary to tertiary, tert-butyl alcohol is therefore more acidic than ethanol in the gas phase.
Acidity of alcohols in the gas phase.
The order of acidity of various liquid alcohols generally is water > primary > secondary > tertiary ROH. By this we mean that the equilibrium position for the proton-transfer reaction lies more on the side of ROH as R is changed from primary to secondary to tertiary; therefore, tert-butyl alcohol is considered less acidic than ethanol
Acidity of alcohols in water.

Politics is not seen as a noble profession as in the moralistic culture
Difference from moralistic culture
anabolism
Anabolism is the biosynthetic buildup of cell material from simple inorganic or organic compounds, whereas catabolism supplies all the energy, and in many cases the building blocks or precursors, for these essential biosynthetic reactions.
substrates
In biology, a substrate can be the surface on which an organism (eg: plant, fungus, or animal) lives or the substance on which an enzyme can act. In geology, a substrate is a rock or sediment surface where chemical and biological processes occur.

disjoint.
In summary, the union of 2 sets (AUB) is the set of all outcomes in A or B or both, the intersection is the set of all outcomes in both A and B, and the empty set is the set with no outcomes. 2 events are disjoint if there intersection is the empty set.
What is Literary Analysis?
I can’t figure out how to draw, maybe it’s different on ipad
Don't be afraid to write down any questions which bubble up as you read:
👍
How might the language or diction of the text reflect cultural
How would we recognize if a text has cultural diction if we aren’t familiar with the culture.
dared
Dramatic
Works Cited
Very popular and renowned sources
Keep track of any patterns
Does this include rhymes, even when not directly talking about poems
How to Perform Literary Analysis
It’s much harder to write annotations for pieces of text like this when there’s no topic I’m supposed to be pulling information for, because everything written is practically factual
what might subconscious slips indicate about meaning?
If it’s a subconscious thought isn’t what we think only speculation or does it not matter if it’s accurate or speculative
free speech,
My question is; How can we balance the protection of free speech with the need for accountability in a world where media messages can quickly spread misinformation or harmful content?
cultural values
One thing I learned throughout this text was that cultural values significantly impact the way media is produced and consumed. These values influence how concepts like free speech, obscenity, and copyright are interpreted and enforced over time all over the media.
Shifting ideas about what constitutes obscenity, a kind of speech that is not legally protected by the First Amendment, is a good example of how cultural values impact mass communication—and of how those values change over time
How do the shifting definitions of obscenity and free speech challenge the effectiveness of current laws, especially in the digital era?
Thanks to the First Amendment and subsequent statutes, the United States has some of the broadest protections on speech of any industrialized nation. We can see the value that American culture places on free speech.
Yes, there is a lot placed on free speech in our country.
“black box,
How will the "black box" concept evolve, and could a single device truly replace all current media technologies in the future?
Jenkins breaks convergence down into five categories
Another thing I learned was that there are five categories of convergence.
Organic convergence is what happens when someone is watching television while chatting online and also listening to music—such multitasking seems like a natural outcome in a diverse media world.
That kind of also seems like a headache.
Today’s media consumers still read newspapers, listen to radio, watch television, and get immersed in movies. The difference is that it’s now possible to do all those things and do all those things through one device—be it a personal computer or a smartphone—and through the medium of the Internet
Exactly. It doesn't just vanish, it becomes more broad.
the story of the lost cell phone would be a great introduction for a text on understanding media and cultur
People don't realize that a small event like losing a phone could blow up into so much more and be a global phenomenon due just one media post because media often amplifies and spreads stories more.
Looking back over time, McLuhan found that people and societies were shaped by the dominant media of their time
Yes, it all has to do with the time period you grew up in. Thus, generational differences.
Think of your typical day. If you are like many people, you wake to a digital alarm clock or perhaps your cell phone. Soon after waking, you likely have a routine that involves some media. Some people immediately check the cell phone for text messages. Others will turn on the computer and check Facebook, email, or websites.
I can definitely relate to this statement right here because one of the first things that I do in the morning is check my phone.
The media and culture are so much a part of our days that sometimes it is difficult to step back and appreciate and apprehend their great impact on our lives.
That is very accurate because living in the Gen-Z era, it plays a large role in our day to day lives.
Error is the difference between a single measurement or result and its expected value.
Associated with determinate/systematic errors
One approach for detecting a proportional determinate error is to analyze a standard that contains a known amount of analyte in a matrix similar to our samples.
Analyze a known standard to determine proportional systematic error.
sampling errors, method errors, measurement errors, and personal errors
The 4 types of systematic error.
Media stories about violent crime also tend to be more common when the accused offender is black and the victim is white and when the offender is a juvenile. This type of coverage is thought to heighten the public’s prejudice toward African Americans and to contribute to negative views about teenagers.
How does the media representation of juvenile crime novels affect community views on teenagers?
During the late 1800s, medical authorities and other experts warned women not to go to college for two reasons: they feared that the stress of college would disrupt women’s menstrual cycles, and they thought that women would not do well on exams while they were menstruating.
How did the medical theories in the late 1800s influences societal attitudes regarding women's education? And were there results.If there was, did women provide these medical theories wrong by succeeding in college?
normal growth temperature is 37°C (human body temperature)
What type of normal growth temperature?
cosecant, tangent, and cotangent
When are they useful?
Advertisements, bias, spin, and misinformation are all things to look out for.
From my point of view, bias is usually formed from the media.
In the past, one goal of education was to provide students with the information deemed necessary to successfully engage with the world. Students memorized multiplication tables, state capitals, famous poems, and notable dates. In today’s world, however, vast amounts of information are available at the click of a mouse.
In elementary school, it was all pencil and paper. The shift to Chromebooks happened in middle school
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) estimated that children aged 2 to 11 saw, on average, 25,629 television commercials a year, or more than 10,700 minutes of ads.
When I was younger, I loved watching toy commercials.
the ability to read and write
An essential skill!!
Popular culture is the media, products, and attitudes considered to be part of the mainstream of a given culture and the everyday life of common people.
Street name "Pop culture"
In the 21st century, rabid fans could actually help decide the next pop stars through the reality television program American Idol. Derived from a British show, American Idol hit the airwaves in 2002 and became the only television program ever to earn the top spot in the Neilsen ratings for six seasons in a row, often averaging more than 30 million nightly viewers.
I remember seeing American Idol and shows like it where fans vote for their favorites. Another example of this would be the show Love Island. The fans vote for the strongest and weakest couple determining who gets to stay on the island.
Another useful aspect of media is its ability to act as a public forum for the discussion of important issues. In newspapers or other periodicals, letters to the editor allow readers to respond to journalists, or voice their opinions on the issues of the day.
This is how people get their news. Even social media apps can have links to news articles, videos, and posts about what is going on in the world.
Until Johannes Gutenberg’s 15th-century invention of the movable type printing press, books were painstakingly handwritten, and no two copies were exactly the same. The printing press made the mass production of print media possible. Not only was it much cheaper to produce written material, but new transportation technologies also made it easier for texts to reach a wide audience.
I watched a movie one time. It was set in a time period before the printing press and the character who was writing a book had to use a typewriter. Towards the end, they found a piece of cloth and sewed it onto the spine to be the cover.
In 2010, Americans could turn on their television and find 24-hour news channels, as well as music videos, nature documentaries, and reality shows about everything from hoarders to fashion models.
That statement brings back some nostalgia. I remember turning on the tv and being able to watch all kinds of things through cable channels.
Postmodernists even mistrusted the idea of originality—the supposed arrogance of thinking one had a “new thought”—and freely borrowed across cultures and genres.
In a way, is that considered a sort of bias?
Modernism refers to the artistic movement of late-19th and early-20th centuries that arose out of the widespread changes that swept the world during that period. Most notably, modernism questioned the limitations of “traditional” forms of art and culture. Modernist art was in part a reaction against the Enlightenment’s certainty of progress and rationality.
I remember learning about "Modernism" back in high school history class and not having a good understanding of it. Now reading it, I am able to grasp the definition of it.
Urbanization, mass literacy, and new forms of mass media contributed to a sense of mass culture that united people across regional, social, and cultural boundaries.
It is really cool to read about how media and culture have improved over time.
The early modern period began with Gutenberg’s invention of the movable type printing press in the late 15th century and ended in the late 18th century. Thanks to Gutenberg’s press, the European population of the early modern period saw rising literacy rates, which led to educational reform
We also talked about the printing press and Gutenburg.
For example, you may have had readings about the “Middle Ages,” a marker for European history from the 5th to 15th Century. In that era, technology and communication were in the hands of authorities like the king and church who could dictate what was “true.”
I remember back in middle and high school when I learned out how people communicated in history.
Culture and media exert influence on each other in subtle, complex ways.
Yes, they do. The bounce off of each other.
Mass communication refers to a message transmitted to a large audience; the means of transmission is known as mass media. Many different kinds of mass media exist and have existed for centuries.
This is where two and two are put together.
He said, culture is “an historically transmitted pattern of meanings embodied in symbols, a system of inherited conceptions expressed in symbolic forms by means of which men communicate, perpetuate, and develop their knowledge about and their attitudes toward life” (1973, 89)
This has to do with the way people live, where they live, and also what they know.
A medium is simply an instrument or means of transmission.
This also something new that I learned today. Yes, media is a means of transmission.
Mass communication is communication of, relating to, characteristic of, directed at, or attended by a large number of people. That’s pretty ugly. Let’s try the following: Mass communication refers to communication transmitted to large segments of the population.
I have a new perspective on the meaning of "mass communication". The definition considered "ugly" is exactly what I thought it had meant.
By the time this happens, babies have learned much, through observation and practice, about our verbal communication and interaction patterns.
This idea is super important to consider when raising a child. In my past psychology class, I learned how much communication interferes and reflects on the child when they begin learning how to communicate. The way parents interact around their child is super important for the child’s growth.
Looking back to our discussion of connotation, we can see how individuals play a role in how meaning and language are related, since we each bring our own emotional and experiential associations with a word that are often more meaningful than a dictionary definition
This is a very interesting idea to consider when thinking about our relationship with words and phrases. A simple phrase can mean one thing to you and a whole different thing to another person, based on our associations of the terminology. This idea allows me to reflect on past situations where certain phrases shared between people have caused tension, due to differences of interpretation.
If a concept is abstract and the words used to define it are also abstract, then a definition may be useless. Have you ever been caught in a verbal maze as you look up an unfamiliar word, only to find that the definition contains more unfamiliar words?
This is a common issue I find myself stumbling upon when searching up terms I’m unfamiliar with. To solve this issue I search “A simplified definition of ___”, or I often find videos defining the world helpful. Definitions are typically helpful and super convenient in everyday life, but sometimes they can be dull.
Being aware of this indirect relationship between symbol and referent, we can try to compensate for it by getting clarification
It’s important to clarify small misunderstandings in order to reach a conclusion between the issue. Recognizing the issue at hand, and continuing the conversation by providing additional context, allows for a productive conversation for both parties.
C-H bond.
Draw all hydrogens.
electrophilic reaction such as HX with an alkene will often yield more than one product
See exercise below
f) 1 (allylic carbocation – positive charge can be delocalized to a second carbon)
Resonance effects dominate inductive effects. So the tertiary carbon (2) doesn't matter as much as the delocalization effects of resonance (1).
Distinguish among the five forms of communication.
Five Types of Communication Verbal Communication. Verbal communication occurs when we engage in speaking with others. Non-Verbal Communication. What we do while we speak often says more than the actual words. Written Communication. Listening. Visual Communication.
As shown in the figure above, every other glucose monomer in cellulose is flipped over, and the monomers are packed tightly as extended, long chains. This gives cellulose its rigidity and high tensile strength—which is so important to plant cells.
I know that cellulose is vital to plant cells and that it can't be digested by humans but by certain animals (ruminants) and horses that are hindgut fermenters.
With this, I find it super interesting learning about the structure of cellulose itself! Putting the real world application together with how this molecule is extremely strong because of the glucose monomers flipped over with beta 1-4 linkages tells me why certain animals, like cows, need microbes to be able to digest these strong structures!
glycosidic bond
Glycosidic bonds are a covalent bond formed between a carbohydrate and another molecule.
This happens when the OH of one monosaccharide combines with the H of another, releasing H2O and being joined by O.
These disaccharides can have different structures, functions, and purposes!
If the hydroxyl group is below C1 in the sugar, it is said to be in the alpha (α) position, and if it is above C1 in the sugar, it is said to be in the beta (β) position.
This is my first time encountering alpha and beta positions in relation to ring structures.
This is something important to note, since with alpha positions the OH needs to be below the first carbon. With beta positions, the OH needs to be above the first carbon!
All steroids have four linked carbon rings.
We can see a structure of 3 hexane rings and one pentane ring and we can see that for most of the structure there is a lot more carbon than oxygen which implies it is a lipid.
carbohydrate
To identify carbohydrates (and lipids in general besides phospholipids), you can count the number of C, H, and O present in the molecule.
The number of carbons and oxygens should be equal, whereas the number of hydrogens should be double this amount.
You can also identify lipids by looking for the polar "head" and nonpolar "tail"!
phospholipid bilayer forms as the basic structure of most cell membranes and are responsible for the dynamic nature of the plasma membrane.
Understanding the function and importance of the phospholipid bilayer helps me to understand why it's arranged like that.
Since it's the basic structure of most cell membranes and responsible for how the plasma membrane acts, by having the hydrophobic tails face to face and the hydrophilic heads point out, the cell and plasma membrane is able to interact with water.
This means the plasma membrane acts as a barrier, and a stable one since the tails are aligned!
The lipids arrange such that their polar groups are on the outside of the micelle, and the nonpolar tails are on the inside. Under other conditions, a lipid bilayer can also form
I know from previous class that the lipid bilayer functions as a barrier to selectively keep out certain combounds but what would the purpose of a micelle be?
butter has a greater percentage of longer and saturated hydrocarbons in its triglycerides than does vegetable oil.
Since butter has more longer chains or hydrocarbons, it's more straight and compact whereas vegetable oil has double bonds that cause "kinks" in the structure, making it less compact.
If the protein is subject to changes in temperature, pH, or exposure to chemicals, that change the nature of or interfere with the associations between functional groups, the protein's secondary, tertiary and/or quaternary structures may change, even though the primary structure remains the same. This process is known as denaturation
From previous knowledge, a cell,molecule, etc. usually denatures if the temperature is too high, chemical exposure and pH change. But can it also denature when the temperature drops down too low?
Glucose in a ring form can have two different arrangements of the hydroxyl group (OH) around the anomeric carbon
Since alpha glucose and beta glucose have different arrangements, does that also mean they they have different functions as well? Or is it possible for them to have overlapping function, even with their differences?
fructose (the second carbohydrate that with glucose makes up the disaccharide sucrose and is a common sugar found in fruit)
Since fructose is a sugar commonly found in fruits, does it mean that it's primarily seen as a "healthy" sugar? What is the limitation that exceeds it from being "healthy?"
Each amino acid is attached to another amino acid by a covalent bond, known as a peptide bond, which is formed by a dehydration synthesis (condensation)
I remember that proteins have multiple structures. Proteins can be denatured at high temperatures because the IMFs that hold the structure together (for example hydrogen bonds) can be overcome, but the primary structure (amino acids attached to each other by covalent peptide bonds) cannot be broken.
mRNA, rRNA, tRNA, miRNA
I know that mRNA is messenger RNA, rRNA is ribosomal RNA, tRNA is transfer RNA and miRNA is microRNA
Stakeholders are the individuals or groups to whom a business has a responsibility. The stakeholders of a business are its employees, its customers, the general public, and its investors.
definition of stakeholders -- includes employees, customers, society -- also stockholders (owners)
