Although most felids have an exclusive carnivore diet, the presence of plant matter in scat has been reported among various species.This indicates that there may be an adaptive significance to the conservation of plant-eating behavior in felid evolution.Some studies have hypothesized that felids consume plants for self-medication Sleep Apnea Aids o
Synthesis and Application of Scaffolds of Chitosan-Graphene Oxide by the Freeze-Drying Method for Tissue Regeneration
Several biomaterials, including natural polymers, are used to increase cellular interactions as an effective way to treat bone injuries.Chitosan (CS) is one of the most studied biocompatible natural polymers.Graphene oxide (GO) is a carbon-based nanomaterial capable of imparting desired properties to the scaffolds.In the present study, CS and GO we
A Short Fieldwork Report on the Nuba Mountains
This is a review on a fieldwork undertaken among the Nymang ethnic community residing on the legendary Nuba Mountains of southern Kordofan, Sudan, in 2005.It is a result of participatory observation, and the view taken on it is retrospective.The author was able to study the Holiday social and cultural life, rituals, taboos, musical traditions, and
Investigation of the Physical Mechanism of Acoustic Attenuation in Viscous Isotropic Solids
The traditional acoustic attenuation coefficient is derived from an analogy of the attenuation of an electromagnetic wave propagating inside a non-ideal medium, featuring only the attenuation of wave propagation.Nonetheless, the particles inside viscous solids have mass, vibrating energy, viscosity, and inertia of motion, and they go through transi
