Inflammation is the main type of innate immunity our body uses against A. schmiddy. Inflammation begins by activating acute-phase proteins, and soon after vasodilation occurs, followed by redness, swelling, pain, and heat. Once vasodilation occurs, histamine and kinins are released and blood vessels permeability is increased, causing white blood cells to report to the infected area. One problem associated with inflammation is that the capsule of A. schmiddy is an important virulence factor, which helps the bacteria to resists phagocytosis. Because the phagocytes cannot destroy the bacteria cells, infection further continues and necrotic tissue forms.
The White Snakeroot is a plant that is very commonly found across the southern regions of the United States and was initially believed to be harmless. It was believed to be harmless because its appearance is very non threatening. It is a very beautiful plant with medium sized white flowers and a green stem. It wasn’t until after it had killed hundreds of people and livestock that we realized that it produced toxic chemicals, that if consumed, was cause certain death. The explanation of this plants deadly nature contributes to the author’s thesis.
Staphylococcus epidermidis is the organism that was identified based on the tests that I had conducted. The tests that I used to identify this organism were the coagulase test and the catalase test. My bacterium was beta hemolytic as well. First, a gram stain had to be done to determine whether the organism was a gram positive organism or a gram negative organism. This determined which set of tests that had to be done.
The seeds themselves were not poisonous, but the mold that grew on them, was quite poisonous. The mold is a fungus named Rhizoctonia leguminicola. Rhizoctonia leguminicola produces a potent alkaloid known as swainsonine, a compound well known to ranchers and veterinarians as a killer of livestock (Krakauer 193-194). The mold theory was disproved by University of Alaska chemists Edward Treadwell and Thomas Clausen in 2007 (205). Clausen and Treadwell concluded that the amino acid L-canavanine caused his death.

Before the release of his latest album, Yeezus, Kanye West switched the first track from “Blood on the Leaves” to “On Sight”. West admitted this decision made his album less popular, but felt that it was necessary to properly convey the themes of frustration he hoped to represent in his album. After listening to these two pieces, I agreed with his assessment. While I enjoyed “Blood on the Leaves” more, “On Sight” was better at inciting emotions of frustration within the listener. I found “Blood on the Leaves” to be more aurally pleasing, but “On Sight” to possess the greater emotional impact. The two pieces are distinguished by elements of melody and texture that made “Blood on the Leaves” a more enjoyable piece than “On Sight”.

Tim Burton contributes to the world of animation in the film industry and redefined stop motion . Lighting is an important cinematic technique directors can use to set the mood for a particular scene. For instance, high-key lighting is used to flood a scene with light, often making the set and characters appear happy and safe.
