Abstract This assignment focuses on how deviance forms a part of major social institutions in our society i.e., religion, education, government, economy and family. It attempts to explore so, through different perspectives and live examples/ situations persisting in the India society. I have also tried to give examples of situations that I have witnessed in the agency I am placed, Crime against Women (CAW) Cell. What is Deviance? Though there is no exact or approved definition of Deviance but the
players cannot rely on their considerations about the outcomes. A Nash equilibrium is a state were no participant can gain by changing strategies as long as the players’ choices remain unchanged. In tree diagram (explained above) the Nash equilibrium is when both collude, because neither firm A can change and have more profit by changing their strategy, nor can B . In some games it may occur that there are two Nash equilibriums, for example when two firms are merging into two divisions of a large
Throughout history, dating back to 3600 BC, games of chance and gambling have existed ("Introduction- Gambling and Probability"). Since their invention, people have tried to decipher ways to predict the outcome of such games, thus a need to determine the likelihood of winning in games such as these evolved. The method created to suit this need is known as probability theory. Probability theory has been developed over hundreds of years, and is used to predict possible outcomes and assist in daily
Enzymes are “proteins that help lower the energy necessary to do chemical reactions within the body”. They are considered biological catalyst. When the environment changes, the ability of an enzyme to catalyze a reaction decreases. Very high temperatures can denature enzymes by destroying their bonds and their shapes. Low temperatures, can cause enzymes to slow down and decrease their rate of interaction with substrates. The structure of an enzyme are chains of amino acids, and have a specific shape
Enzymes are very valuable to the metabolic process. Enzymes are protein catalyst that lowers activation energy and speed up chemical reactions. Knowing what conditions affect enzymes will help further knowledge in what enzymes are and how they work. Catecholase was used in both experiments. The absorbance rate of each test tube was measured at 420 nm. The first experiment showed how pH affects enzyme reaction rate. This experiment found that the optimal pH for catecholase is pH 10. However, catechol
Introduction: There are a number of environmental parameters that can affect enzyme activity and its process. Enzymes are substances made in by an organism that serves as a catalyst and quickens the biochemical reaction to occur. When a catalyst is brought into the picture, it speeds up the time needed for said reaction to occur, making the enzyme a “helper” for reactions. Enzymes and substrates are closely related in the sense that both join together to help bring the end result of the reaction
Experiment 2: Preparation and Spectrophotometric Analysis of Copper(I) Iodide Abstract: This experiment aims to determine the concentration of “Purified CuI” sample. Crude CuI is obtained by reacting CuSO4.5H2O with KI and Na2S2O3 in de-ionized water. A series of decanting and centrifugation is carried out to extract the crude CuI. Crude CuI was later purified by dissolving it in hot KI solution. The solution was later transferred into de-ionized water and placed in an ice bath to allow for re-precipitation
Ksp is known as an equilibrium constant of the solubility product, but Kc is used for the equilibrium constant of the reaction. Ksp is a representation of the level at which a soluble solution can dissolve. The greater the solubility of a substance, the higher the Ksp. The constant of the value Ksp tells the
Game Theory and the Prisoners’ Dilemma Strategic Rationality In this chapter, Daniel Little indicates that under circumstances of uncertainty and risks, decision-makers attempt to maximize utility through collecting information of the utility and analyzing the probability of each feasible choice. Finally the maximum expected payoff of outcomes is given to the decision-maker since all other decision makers also made the rational decisions. Also strategic rationality is embodied on interactive social
Essay #2 Progressing through life, view the twist and turns on the path that must be followed. Why must these obstacles be placed where they are and what makes it different from a perfectly straight path? Playing a board game is just the same as the journey of life. It wouldn’t be the same if all of it was just one simple path. There would be no point of playing. There would be no way to challenge yourself and make it competitive. It would be nearly impossible to learn anything from it. Just as without
Enzyme assays are performed to serve two different purposes: (i) To identify a special enzyme by proving its presence or absence in a distinct specimen. (ii) To determine the amount of the enzyme in the sample by monitoring the disappearance of substrate or appearance of product. Enzymes speed up reaction rate by decreasing the activation energy required to start the reaction. Activation energy is the energy required to break certain bonds in the substrate so that other bonds can form. The formation
swerve away. According to Wikipedia, (2018), it is reported that "this unstable situation can be formalized by saying there is more than one Nash equilibrium, which is a pair of strategies for which neither player gains by changing his own strategy while the other stays the same". In light of this, the drivers of either car assume to know the equilibrium strategy of the other driver meanwhile in the event that they both decide to change their strategy, there is no certainty that either would arrive

below the poverty line but it does not measure by how much they are falling below. In this approach, a person earning 50% of the poverty line is same as another whose income is at 90% of the poverty line. This is commonly referred to as “depth of economic need”. • It excludes relevant expenses such as taxes, work expense, out-of-pocket medical expense and benefits in the form of government assistance such as food assistance. • It does not vary within the United States to reflect differences in cost
9) Game Theory : It is a technique to deal with uncertainty situations related to management decisions such as bidding for tenders. 10) Goal Programming : It is a technique to convert multiple objectives into a simple goal. 11) Simulation : It is a technique to deal with probabilistic situation where mathematical models fail to provide solutions to real problems. 12) Scheduling : It is the process of preparing calendar for executing a set of jobs. 13) Non-linear programming : It is an extended version
Enzymes: Enzymes are the biological catalysts which are globular proteins in nature. They catalyze or accelerate the chemical reactions. They speed up the chemical reactions by providing an alternative reaction pathway of lower activation energy. The molecules on which enzymes acts are called substrates and these are converted into different molecules called products. All the metabolic processes in the cell need enzymes to occur at a faster rate to sustain life. Like all other catalysts, enzymes
Project 1: Calorimetry CHM2046L-029 24920 Introduction Background Calorimetry is a method of measuring the enthalpy (heat energy gained or released) of various state changes, such as chemical reactions. Calorimetry can also be used in a number of other ways, however, including in microbiology (where the presence of various microorganisms can be determined as their multiplication increases thermal power) and in environmental science (where a calorimeter can be used to determine insect
Introduction: Enzymes are proteins that function as catalysts, meaning that they increase the speed of a reaction without being changed themselves. The enzyme has two main jobs in a reaction that cause the reaction to increase. The first job is to bring substrates (the substances that the enzyme will be reacting on that bind to the active site in the beginning a reaction) together in an orderly fashion so that they can interact during the reaction. It’s second job is to decrease the energy needed
To find chemical equilibrium, the following chemical equation is used in the experiment: Fe3+(aq) + SCN-(aq) FeSCN2+(aq). When iron (III) and thiocyanate react, thiocyanoiron (III) is produced. When the concentration of all ions at equilibrium are known, the equilibrium constant can be calculated by dividing the equilibrium concentration of the reactant by the equilibrium concentration of the products. In this experiment, four equilibrium systems containing different concentrations of three different
