The present study evaluated the ground water quality and physico-chemical characteristics of the water samples collected from 15 bore wells in the study area which is situated in Rangappa Layout which is located in the Ittamadgu Village of Uttarahalli Hobli which falls in the Bangalore South taluk of the Bangalore Urban district. Physico-chemical characteristics of the collected water samples, ...

A population faced with a new selection pressure can only adapt if appropriate genetic variation is available. This genetic variation might come from new mutations or from gene exchange with other populations or species, or it might already segregate in the population as standing genetic variation (which might itself have arisen from either mutation or gene flow). Understanding the relative imp...

nitrogen, carbon, alpha-carbon (Ca), oxygen, and hydrogen atoms, and a distinguishing side chain. The backbone of a protein is the linked sequence of these rigid planes. Figure 2 shows several amino acids linked together. The individual amino acids are distinguished from each other by a number of physical chemical properties that give rise to the threedimensional structure [Wilcox, Poliac, and ...

Researchers have found that religious affiliation, religious attendance, religious beliefs, and prayer are associated with teen sexual attitudes and behavior.(Wallace & Williams, 1997; Whitehead, Wilcox, & Rostosky, 2001) Holding strong religious beliefs and praying are linked to reduced sexual activity among adolescents (Meier, 2003; Resnick et al., 1997) and teens (girls in particular) from m...

T he topic of the “credit crunch” received considerable attention during the early 1990s. As a result, several initiatives aimed at eliminating regulatory disincentives to lending were put in place. For example, documentation requirements recently were reduced to the legal minimum for loans to small and medium-sized businesses. Also, examiners and bankers were encouraged to emphasize the charac...

Belief models capable of detecting 2to 5-period patterns in repeated games by matching the current historical context to similar realizations of past play are presented. The models are implemented in a cognitive framework, ACT-R, and vary in how they implement similarity-based categorization—using either an exemplar or a prototype approach. Empirical estimation is performed on the elicited-beli...

A significant correlation between the occurrence of pearl pulsations at College, Alaska, and interplanetary magnetic field sector boundaries has been observed. Pearl pulsation data published by the Geophysical Institute, University of Alaska, and sector data published by Wilcox and Ness have been used to show the following: pearl pulsations are more likely to occur on the day a sector boundary ...
