He has done like Orbaneja, the painter of Ubeda ...when he had scrawled out a misshapen cock, was forced to write underneath in Gothic letters, This is a cock.  [Pg.329]

Modem farming methods can easily disrupt animal social behavior (Mench and vanTienhoven, 1986). Overcrowding is conunon, single sex or uniform age groups prevent normal social contacts, and parent-offspring bonds are either disrupted or prevented altogether. The five basic freedoms proposed for animals raised in a production environment are the freedom to [Pg.329]

When these are violated, physiological stress may result, although this is often difficult to prove. [Pg.329]

Derived plant and animal products make better use or upgrade the nutritional quaHty of already existing materials or products. Synthetic and manufactured products arose from knowledge of the functional properties of food ingredients and of human and animal nutrition that involved more precise definition of nutrient requirements for growth, reproduction, lactation, and body maintenance in both humans and domestic Hvestock. Pood products have been developed to meet human needs under abnormal environments, eg, military rations for arctic, tropical, or desert environments, and special products for astronauts ia space flights. [Pg.463]

Louver An opening that allows air to enter or leave a space, which has inclined vanes to provide protection from the entry of rain, snow, and animals. [Pg.1456]

The first commercial buildings, built in about 2000 B.C.E., were simple structures that represented the beginnings of architecture—a scries of columns, walls, and roofs. Columns represented the upright human stance, walls represented human territoriality, and roofs both kept the rain out and created a crown, or head, for the structure. Walls also represented a separation between the plant and animal world and the human world. The walls of a courtyard formed a human space that became the city. Although the form of buildings has evolved over time, buildings today fundamentally provide these same basic human functions artistic expression, separation, definition, and shelter. [Pg.191]

Overheating can be due to a number of causes, but is usually from solar gain and machinery heat losses. If ventilating to provide thermal comfort in a space for humans or animals there are a number of considerations apart from simply air temperature ... [Pg.428]

The mitochondrion has an outer and an inner membrane (Figure 1). The outer membrane contains pores formed from a protein, porin, which allow exchange of molecules with molecular weights up to about 2,000 between the cytosol and the intermembrane space. The inner membrane is extensively invaginated to increase its surface area. It has a different lipid composition from the outer membrane and is rich in the acidic phospholipid cardiolipin (diphosphatidyl-glycerol) which is only found in animal cells in mitochondria. Cardiolipin confers good electrical insulating properties on the inner membrane which is impermeable... [Pg.108]

All these factors make comparisons with other archaeological indicators of paleodiet more complicated. Nevertheless, nitrogen trophic level effects, together with measurement of the A CapaiU,.coii,g.n spacing, seems to be the best way to quantify proportions of animal protein in the diet. [Pg.51]

Herbivores typically eat diets with high carbohydrate and low protein and lipid. F is about 0.15, and the protein is mainly plant derived and not very different in S C from the non-protein (i.e., Dp is close to Dn). For carnivores, F is typically 0.5 or over, and carbohydrate is low. Animal protein is generally isotopically heavier, while the non-protein is much higher in lipid, so that Dp - Dn is generally quite large (>5%o). The spacing, Bcolla Bcarb. for the two diets is evaluated according to the equation above. [Pg.231]

Hypertonic sahne is actively excluded from an intact BBB and also acts to draw water into the intravascular space by the creation of a sodium gradient. Various concentrations have been evaluated, with continuous sodium chloride infusions ranging from 3% to 9%, and bolus infusions up to 23.4% administered over 20 minutes in a 30 mL solution. When a continuous infusion is used, the serum sodium is typically titrated to the 155-160 range. Sodium levels above this range raise the concern for seizures and other toxic side effects. Hypertonic saline may hold an advantage over mannitol, as it has been found in animal models to decrease edema in both... [Pg.174]
