Introduction Theories are set of statements that seek to provide a logical explanation for how a particular phenomenon works (Ogunbameru, 2013). In sociology, theories attempt to explain human interaction and the consequences of such interactions on social life as a whole. Thus, in pursuit of this goal, sociologists come up with varying theoretical approaches in order to provide an objective explanation of the social phenomenon under study. The theoretical approaches employed by sociologists are
a. Sociology is the study of the social relationships that affect the humans as well as institutions. It involves many fields of study that include crime, religion, family, race, culture and society among others. It is the primary purpose of sociology to provide linkage to all of these different subjects to help in understanding how humans behave (Smith, 2016). b. Sociological enquiry is the careful analysis of the motivational factors as well as the behavior of a certain individual within a particular
By definition sociology is the study of interaction and social organization. The main dissimilarity between micro-sociology and macro-sociology is that macro is the study of sociology on a big or large scale; on the other hand micro deals with day to day interactions. Macro-sociology covers a big-scale social process of institutions, organizations, and social life over a long period of time. Micro-sociology studies the behavior of people i.e. in terms of what they say, think and do in their daily
Social Perspectives Shantia Arzu University of Belize Social Perspectives Sociology is the study of the development, structure, functioning of human society and human behavior whereas, the word perspective can be defines as a view of things in their true connection or importance. Hence, the social perspectives provide standpoints used to look at human behavior and interaction as they relate to individuals and groups within society. The social perspective emphasizes that to understand humans
In the main quadrangle, I struck up a conversation with a UChicago student. When I asked him what he was majoring in, he said with a completely straight face, “Religious Studies and Astrophysics”. While other institutions might satisfy one of my interests, UChicago can satiate them all. I’ve always been curious, which unquestionably translated into a love for discovery. Instead of wanting dolls for my birthdays, I asked for Legos or 1000-piece jigsaw puzzles. Walking through Best Buy, I’ve always
My topic is Computer programming. Some of the things I will be explaining in my topic include, how computer programming can help a person do the job they already have, or how it can create new jobs. How can computers help you you ask? Well its simple, computer programming can affect everyone no matter who the person receiving knowledge about it is. Computer programming can sort files, operate machinery, and control technology. A person that learns computer programming might be able to make a program
Les Miserables: Morality and the Human Experience Les Miserables by Victor Hugo focuses on the interactions between people and society, as well as how the actions of a few can affect the whole. Jean Valjean, Javert, and Thenardier were catalysts for this novel, each in their own ways. By studying how their Hedonistic, Utilitarian, and Kant’s Categorical viewpoints evolved throughout the story, one can better understand the message that Hugo is conveying to the reader: that although love can completely
The phenylalanine/hydroxycinnamte pathway: The phenylalanine/hydroxycinnamte pathway starts with metabolism of Phe and called general phenylpropanoid metabolism. The reactions involving formation of hydroxycinnamates and their activated forms (CoA thoesters and 1-O-acylglucosides) fall under the purview of phenylalanine/hydroxycinnamte pathway [Figure 17.3]. First enzyme of hydroxycinnamte pathway is phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL; 4.3.1.24) which catalyses the non-oxidative deamination of Phe
3.3. Synthetic methodologies for dihydropyrimidinones 3.3.1. Classical method Scheme-1: The conventional method for the synthesis of DHPMs is the one-pot three-component reaction of benzaldehyde, ethyl acetoacetate and urea in the presence of an acid catalyst. The product of this novel one-pot, three components synthesis that precipitated on cooling of the reaction mixture was identified as 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one and this reaction came to be known as “Biginelli reaction”, or “Biginelli condensation”
For this experiment, stereochemistry was observed by analyzing both the isomerization of dimethyl maleate and carvones. The dimethyl maleate is formed by two methyl ester groups that are connected by an alkene. They are in a cis-conformation meaning they are on the same side of the alkene, therefore the esters are close to one another. This conformation is strained and sterically hindered due to electrons repelling each other and are enantiomers of one another. With the use of radical chemistry,
Over time Americans have become less literate due to the experiences they have endured as well as the technology acquired through time. Technology has affected the American culture by aiding research, health care and even education. It may therefore come as no surprise that some people may find various technological advancements as negative since they require less human effort and thinking. Some may even argue that inventions such as the cell phone or even the internet have all aided in child obesity
Pages: 697-702 I. Introduction The authors intended to describe a procedure for differentiating among potential precursor responses for use in functional analyses while building on the previous research studies on a similar topic. The authors have given an overview of the previous studies and their
hydrocarbon chains attached to one glycerol. 19.functional group- Groups of molecules that have specific properties are often found bonded to a carbon skeleton. 20.gene- Consists of DNA and is responsible for programing information that gets passed down from parents to
In this experiment, a Friedel-Crafts alkylation of p-xylene (para-1, 4-dimethylbenzene) is performed by 1-bromopropane (alkyl halide) with an aluminum trichloride catalyst. Figure 2 shows the reaction for this synthesis. Friedel-Crafts reactions can usually be performed by vacuum distillation/ reflux as it prevents polyalkylation or multiple substitutions of alkyl groups. Since small quantities of reagents will be used to perform this synthesis, a microscale reflux apparatus will be used. This synthesis
Aldol condensation In the aldol condensation the α-carbon of one aldehyde or ketone molecule adds to the carbonyl carbon of another. The base is most often used is -OH. The product is a β-hydroxy aldehyde or ketone, which in some cases is dehydrated during the course of the reaction. Even if the dehydration is not spontaneous, it can usually be done easily, since the new double bond will be in conjugation with the C=O bond. Ritter Reaction Alcohols is converted by a strong acid to a carbocation
Abastract The intermolecular interactions between halo-cyclopropenone derivatives (HC3OX;X= F, Cl, Br and I) and hypohalous acids (HOY; Y=F, Cl, Br and I) were investigated using the MP2 method with aug–cc-pVTZ basis set. Three types of complexes are forming by:1) hydrogen bond, 2) both hydrogen and halogen bonds, 3) halogen bond interactions. The results indicated that interactions in type 1 complexes are stronger than those in types 2 and 3. The H–O bonds show red shifts with complex formation
INTRODUCTION: Itraconazole is a (1-(butan-2-yl)-4-{4-[4-(4-{[2R,4S)-2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(1H-1,2,4 triazole-1- ylmethyl) 1, 3 – dioxolan – 4 -yl] methoxy}phenyl) piperazin -1-yl ] phenyl} 4, 4-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-one) is member of the drug class known as anti-fungal. It is used for the inhibition of fungal cytochrome p450 enzyme “lanosterol 4 demethylase”, used in the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol, which is a main sterol in fungal cell membrane, thus inhibits
Free radicals contain an electron (e–) as in case of superoxide (•O2–) radical and the hydroxyl radical (•OH) whereas reactive oxygen species (ROS) as a non-radical do not contains electron in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and organic hydroperoxides (ROOH). Radicals can react with other radicals or with non-radicals depending on availability of (e–). Initiation of free radical chain reaction occurs if polyunsaturated fatty acid is attacked by free radicals. This phenomenon occurs due to abundant molecular
Introduction about pyridine ring. py ridine, any of a class of organic compounds of the aromatic heterocyclic series characterized by a six-membered ring structure composed of five carbon atoms and one nitrogen atom. The simplest member of the pyridine family is pyridine itself, a compound with molecular formula C5H5N It is structurally related tobenzene, with one methine group (=CH−) replaced by a nitrogen atom. The pyridine ring occurs in many important compounds, including azines and the vitamins
The experiment consisted of a Diels Alder reaction between anthracene and maleic anhydride to produce 9,10-dihydroanthracene-9,10-α,β-succinic anhydride. This is called a cycloaddition reaction because the reaction between the two products creates a cyclic product. The conjugated diene (called diene) was anthracene (consisted of 2 double bonds) and the dienopile was maleic anhydride (consisted of 1 double bond). The reaction occured between the alkene group of maleic anhydride and the alkene group
