Top 10 Reasons Why the World Won't End in 2012 : Discovery News - 4 views

  • 10. Changes in the Sun's magnetic field will lead to powerful flares.
  • The bottom line is that no dragon's breath of flame will stretch across 100 million miles of space and blowtorch Earth. The largest solar flare recorded to date, on Nov. 4, 2003, spewed several billions of tons of plasma in Earth's direction. The flare's X-ray radiation that impacted our protective atmosphere had the equivalent radiation of 5,000 suns.
  • 4. An asteroid will smash into Earth. A threatening near-Earth asteroid that's gotten the most press is the 900-foot wide Apophis. But its chances of collision have been downgraded to 1 in 250,000 at its next close approach in 2029. In theory, an uncharted asteroid or comet could come out of the blue tomorrow. But if we don't know about it today, the Mayans certainly didn't know about it 1,200 years ago. Earth-killer impacts are tens of millions of years apart. So there's no reason to be a doomsday clock-watcher.

  • This is the first transition ship to a new class of carriers, Gerald R Ford (CVN 78) (also known as CVN 21 and CVNX), planned to start construction in in November 2009 and be delivered in 2015. Northrop Grumman Newport News is the prime contractor for the programme and Raytheon is responsible for weapons system integration. CVN 78 will incorporate new technologies including a new multi-function radar system, volume search radar and open architecture information network, providing a significantly reduced crew requirement and a new nuclear power plant.

How can a mutation in the DNA occur - 1 views

  • Mutations can be inherited. This means that if a parent has a mutation in his or her DNA, then the mutation is passed on to his or her children. 2) Mutations can be acquired. This happens when environmental agents damage DNA, or when mistakes occur when a cell copies its DNA prior to cell division.

      This shows the passing of dna. Could it lead to a possible mutation?
  • The Toba eruption 74,000 years ago is now thought to have dramatically reduced the human population on Earth at that time to just a few thousand individuals resulting in the limited genetic markers now found in the mitochondria DNA.

Functional brain pathways disrupted in children with ADHD - 0 views

  • researchers have identified abnormalities in the brains of children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) that may serve as a biomarker for the disorder,
  • ADHD is one of the most common childhood disorders, affecting an estimated five to eight percent of school-aged children.
  • "Diagnosing ADHD is very difficult because of its wide variety of behavioral symptoms," said lead researcher Xiaobo Li, Ph.D., assistant professor of radiology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Compared to the normal control group, the children with ADHD showed abnormal functional activity in several regions of the brain involved in the processing of visual attention information
  • "What this tells us is that children with ADHD are using partially different functional brain pathways to process this information, which may be caused by impaired white matter pathways involved in visual attention information processing," Dr. Li said.
  • According to the National Institute of Mental Health, there is no single test capable of diagnosing a child with the disorder. As a result, difficult children are often incorrectly labeled with ADHD while other children with the disorder remain undiagnosed.
