Charles Darwin

There are many famous discoveries in Darwin's work, but I would say what Darwin is most famous for the discovery of evolution.

Yes, social conflict theory and conflict theory refer to the same theoretical perspective that highlights power struggles and inequalities within society as the root causes of social problems. Social conflict theory examines how various social groups compete for resources and power, leading to conflict and change within societies.

Biological theory of deviance proposes that certain biological factors, such as genetics or brain structure, play a role in influencing deviant behavior. Some researchers argue that abnormalities in these biological factors can predispose individuals to engage in antisocial or criminal behavior, although environmental factors also interact with biological factors to shape behavior. However, it is important to consider the ethical implications and limitations of solely attributing deviance to biological factors, as social and environmental factors also influence an individual's propensity for deviant behavior.

No, the Progressive reformers did not believe in Social Darwinism. They believed that its competition and conflict were both detrimental to their society.

Patients with compromised immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS, cancer, or undergoing chemotherapy, are most susceptible to Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome (SSSS) due to their weakened ability to fight off infections. Additionally, newborns and young children are also at higher risk of developing SSSS.

Charles Darwin was a British naturalist ,a person who studies the natural world. His job was to learn as much as he could about living things he saw on the places he landed in on his voyage. The blue bobby in the Galapagos Islands, in Ecuador is a great example of what he had to acheive.

Strengths of Merton's strain theory include its focus on societal structures and how they influence individual behavior, as well as its ability to explain why people might turn to deviant behavior when they are unable to achieve societal goals through legitimate means. Weaknesses include overlooking individual variations in response to strain and not accounting for other factors that may contribute to deviant behavior, such as psychological or biological factors.

Structural conflict theory suggests that conflict arises from inequalities in society's institutions and structures, leading to competition for resources and power among different groups. It focuses on how these structural imbalances create and perpetuate conflict and social issues.

Herbert Spencer was an English philosopher and sociologist known for promoting the theory of Social Darwinism. He believed in the concept of "survival of the fittest" and argued that societies evolve through competition and natural selection. Spencer's ideas influenced the fields of sociology, anthropology, and political theory.

Social loafing is the tendency for individuals to exert less effort when working in a group compared to when working alone. This phenomenon occurs because individuals may feel less accountable for their contributions when working as part of a group, leading to decreased motivation and effort.

Sociologists evaluate a theory by analyzing its empirical evidence, consistency with existing research, explanatory power, coherence with sociological principles, and ability to predict and guide future research. Additionally, they consider the theory's social relevance, practical implications, and ethical implications. Collaboration with other researchers and testing the theory through empirical studies also play a crucial role in evaluating its validity and reliability.

Natural selection can take a long time to produce noticeable results because it relies on changes in the gene pool of a population over successive generations. The process involves incremental shifts in allele frequencies and relies on factors such as genetic variation, environmental pressures, and reproductive success. These changes accumulate slowly over time as individuals with advantageous traits have more offspring, leading to the evolution of new traits in a population.

The concept of functional dependency (also known as normalization was introduced by professor Codd in 1970 when he defined the first three normal forms (first, second and third normal forms). Normalization is used to avoid or eliminate the three types of anomalies (insertion, deletion and update anomalies) which a database may suffer from. These concepts will be clarified soon, but first let us define the first three normal forms. First Normal Form: A relation is in first normal form if all its attributes are simple. In other words, none of the attributes of the relation is a relation. Notice that relation means 2-diemenatioanl table. Example -1. Assume the following relation Student-courses (Sid:pk, Sname, Phone, Courses-taken) Where attribute Sid is the primary key, Sname is student name, Phone is student's phone number and Courses-taken is a table contains course-id, course-description, credit hours and grade for each course taken by the student. More precise definition of table Course-taken is : Course-taken (Course-id:pk, Course-description, Credit-hours, Grade) According to the definition of first normal form relation Student-courses is not in first normal form because one of its attribute Courses-taken is itself a table and is not a simple attribute. To clarify it more assume the above tables contain the data as shown below: Student-courses Sid Sname Phone Courses-taken 100 John 487 2454 St-100-courses-taken 200 Smith 671 8120 St-200-courses-taken 300 Russell 871 2356 St-300-courses-taken St-100-Course-taken Course-id Course-description Credit-hours Grade IS380 Database Concepts 3 A IS416 Unix Operating System 3 B St-200-Course-taken Course-id Course-description Credit-hours Grade IS380 Database Concepts 3 B IS416 Unix Operating System 3 B IS420 Data Net Work 3 C St-300-Course-taken Course-id Course-description Credit-hours Grade IS417 System Analysis 3 A Definition of the three types of anomalies: Insertion anomaly means that that some data can not be inserted in the database. For example we can not add a new course to the database of example-1,unless we insert a student who has taken that course. Update anomaly means we have data redundancy in the database and to make any modification we have to change all copies of the redundant data or else the database will contain incorrect data. For example in our database we have the Course description "Database Concepts" for IS380 appears in both St-100-Course-taken and St-200-Course-takentables. To change its description to "New Database Concepts" we have to change it in all places. Indeed one of the purposes of normalization is to eliminate data redundancy in the database. Deletion anomaly meansdeleting some data cause other information to be lost. For example if student Russell is deleted from St-100-Course-taken table we also lose the information that we had a course call IS417 with description System Analysis. Thus Student-courses table suffers from all the three anomalies. To convert the above structure to first normal form relations, all non-simple attributes must be removed or converted to simple attribute. To do that a new relation is created by combining each row of Student-courses with all rows of its corresponding course table that was taken by that specific student. Following is Student-courses table in first normal form. Student-courses ( Sid:pk1, Sname, Phone, Course-id:pk2, Course-description, Credit-hours, Grade) Notice that the primary key of this table is a composite key made up of two parts; Sid and Course-id. Note that pk1 following an attribute indicates that the attribute is the first part of the primary key and pk2 indicates that the attribute is the second part of the primary key. Student-courses Sid Sname Phone Course-id Course-description Credit-hours Grade 100 John 487 2454 IS380 Database Concepts 3 A 100 John 487 2454 IS416 Unix Operating System 3 B 200 Smith 671 8120 IS380 Database Concepts 3 B 200 Smith 671 8120 IS416 Unix Operating System 3 B 200 Smith 671 8120 IS420 Data Net Work 3 C 300 Russell 871 2356 IS417 System Analysis 3 A Examination of the above Student-courses relation reveals that Sid does not uniquely identify a row (tuple) in the relation hence cannot be the primary key. For the same reason Course-id cannot be the primary key. However the combination of Sid and Course-id uniquely identifies a row in Student-courses, Therefore (Sid, Course-id) is the primary key of the above relation. The primary key determines every attribute. For example if you know both Sid and Course-id for any student you will be able to retrieve Sname, Phone, Course-description, Credit-hours and Grade, because these attributes are dependent on the primary key. Figure 1 below is the graphical representation of the functional dependency between the primary key and attributes of the above relation.

Note that the attribute to the right of the arrow is functionally dependent on the attribute in the left of the arrow. Thus the combination (Sid, Course-id) is the determinant (that determines other attributes) and attributes Sname, Phone, Course-description, Credit-hours and Grade are dependent attributes. Formally speaking a determinant is an attribute or a group of attributes determine the value of other attributes. In addition to the (Sid, Course-id) there are two other determinants in the above Student-courses relation. These are; Sid and Course-id attributes. Note that Sid alone determines both Sname and Phone, and attribute Course-id alone determines both Credit-hours and Course_description attributes. = = Attribute Grade is fully functionally dependent on the primary key (Sid, Course-id) because both parts of the primary keys are needed to determine Grade. On the other hand both Sname,and Phone attributes are not fully functionally dependent on the primary key, because only a part of the primary key namely Sid is needed to determine both Sname and Phone. Also attributes Credit-hours and Course-Description are not fully functionally dependenton the primary key because only Course-id is needed to determine their values. The new relation Student-courses still suffers from all three anomalies for the following reasons: 1. The relation contains redundant data (Note Database_Concepts as the course description for IS380 appears in more than one place). 2. The relation contains information about two entities Student and course. Following is the detail description of the anomalies that relation Student-courses suffers from. 1. Insertion anomaly: We cannot add a new course such as IS247 with course description programming techniques to the database unless we add a student who to take the course. 2. Update anomaly: If we change the course description for IS380 from Database Concepts to New_Database_Concepts we have to make changes in more than one place or else the database will be inconsistent. In other words in some places the course description will be New_Database_Concepts and in any place were we forgot to make the changes the description still will be Database_Concepts. 3. Deletion anomaly: If student Russell is deleted from the database we also loose information that we had on course IS417 with description System_Analysis. The above discussion indicates that having a single table Student-courses for our database causing problems (anomalies). Therefore we break the table to smaller table to get a higher normal form relation. Before doing that let us define the second normal form. Second normal relation: A first normal form relation is in second normal form if all its non-primary attributes are fully functionally dependent on the primary key. Note that primary attributes are those attributes, which are parts of the primary key, and non-primary attributes do not participate in the primary key. In Student-coursesrelation both Sid and Course-id are primary attributes because they are components of the primary key. However attributes Sname, Phone, Course-description, Credit-hours and Grade all are non primary attributes because non of them is a component of the primary key. To convert Student-courses to second normal relations we have to make all non-primary attributes to be fully functionally dependent on the primary key. To do that we need to project (that is we break it down to two or more relations) Student-courses table into two or more tables. However projections may cause problems. To avoid such problems it is important to keep attributes, which are dependent on each other in the same table, when a relation is projected to smaller relations. Following this principle and examination of Figure-1 indicate that we should divide Student-courses relation into following three relations: PROJECT Student-courses ON (Sid, Sname, Phone) creates a table call it Student. The relation Student will be Student (Sid:pk, Sname, Phone) and PROJECT Student-courses ON (Sid, Course-id, Grade) creates a table call it Student-grade. The relation Student-grade will be Student-grade(Sid:pk1:fk:Student, Course-id::pk2:fk:Courses, Grade) and Projects Student-courses ON (Course-id, Course-Description, Credit-hours) create a table call it Courses. Following are these three relations and their contents: Student (Sid:pk, Sname, Phone) Sid Sname Phone 100 John 487 2454 200 Smith 671 8120 300 Russell 871 2356 Courses (Course-id::pk, Course-Description) Course-id Course-description Credit-hours IS380 Database Concepts 3 IS416 Unix Operating System 3 IS420 Data Net Work 3 IS417 System Analysis 3 Student-grade (Sid:pk1:fk:Student, Course-id::pk2:fk:Courses, Grade) Sid Course-id Grade 100 IS380 A 100 IS416 B 200 IS380 B 200 IS416 B 200 IS420 C 300 IS417 A All these three relations are in second normal form. Examination of these relations shows that we have eliminated the redundancy in the database. Now relation Studentcontains information only related to the entity student, relation Courses contains information related to entity Courses only, and the relation Student-grade contains information related to the relationship between these two entity. Further these three sets are free from all anomalies. Let us clarify this in more detail. Insertion anomaly: Now a new Course with course-id IS247 and Course-description can be inserted to the table Course. Equally we can add any new students to the database by adding their id, name and phone to Student table. Therefore our database, which made up of these three tables does not suffer from insertion anomaly. Update anomaly: Since redundancy of the data was eliminated no update anomaly can occur. To change the course-description for IS380 only one change is needed in table Courses. Deletion anomaly: the deletion of student Russell from the database is achieved by deleting Russell's records from both Student and Student-grade relations and this does not have any side effect because the course IS417 untouched in the table Courses.
Third Normal Form: A second normal form relation is in third normal form if all non-primary attributes (that is attributes that are not parts of the primary key or of any candidate key) have non-transitivity dependency on the primary key. Assume the relation: STUDENT (Sid: pk, Activity, fee) Further Activity ------------> fee that is the Activity determine the fee Sid Activity Fee 100 Swimming 100 200 Tennis 100 300 Golf 300 400 Swimming 100 Table STUDENT is in first normal form because all its attributes are simple. Also STUDENT is in second normal form because all its non-primary attributes are fully functionally dependent on the primary key (Sid). Notice that a first normal relation with non-composite (that is simple) primary key automatically will be in second normal form because all its non-primary attributes will be fully functionally dependent on the primary key. Table STUDENT suffers from all 3 anomalies; a new student can not be added to the database unless he/she takes an activity and no activity can be inserted into the database unless we get a student to take that activity. There is redundancy in the table (see Swimming), therefore to change the fee for Swimming we must make changes in more than one place and that will cause update anomaly problem. If student 300 is deleted from the table we also loose the fact that we had Golf activity with its fee to be 300. To overcome these anomalies STUDENT table should be converted to smaller tables. Consider the following three projection of the STUDENT relation: PROJECT STUDENT on [Sid, Activity] and we get a relation name it STUD-AVT (Sid:pk, Activity) with the following data : STUD_ACT Sid Activity 100 Swimming 200 Tennis 300 Golf 400 Swimming PROJECT STUDENT on [Activity, Fee] and we get a relation name AVT-Fee (Activity:pk, Fee) with the following data : AVT-Fee Activity Fee Swimming 100 Tennis 100 Golf 300 Swimming 100 PROJECT STUDENT on [Sid, Fee] and we get a relation name Sid-Fee (Sid:pk, Fee) with the following data : Sid-Fee Sid Fee 100 100 200 100 300 300 400 100 The question is which pairs of these projections should we choose? The answer to that is to choose the pair STUD-AVT and AVT-Fee because the join of these two projections produces the original STUDENT table. Such projections are called non-loss projections. Therefore the join of STUD-AVT and AVT-Fee on the common attribute Activity recreate the original STUDENT table. On the other hand as shown below the join of projections Sid-Fee and AVT-Fee on their common attribute Sid generates erroneous data that were not in the original STUDENT table and such projections are called loss projections. Following is the join of projections Sid-Fee and AVT-Fee on their common attribute Sid Sid Activity Fee 100 Swimming 100 100Tennis 100 200 Tennis 100 200 Swimming 100 300 Golf 300 400 Swimming 100 400 Tennis 100 The three rows marked in red color were not in the original STUDENT table. Thus we have an erroneous data in the database. Both projections STUD-AVT and AVT-Fee are in third normal form and they do not suffer from any anomalies. Boyce Codd normal (BOC): A relation is in BOC form if every determinant is a candidate key. This is an improved form of third normal form. Fourth Normal Form: A Boyce Codd normal form relation is in fourth normal form if there is no multi value dependency in the relation or there are multi value dependency but the attributes, which are multi value dependent on a specific attribute, are dependent between themselves. This is best discussed through mathematical notation. Assume the following relation R(a:pk1, b:pk2, c:pk3) Recall that a relation is in BOC normal form if all its determinant are candidate keys, in other words each determinant can be used as a primary key. Because relation R has only one determinant (a, b, c),, which is the composite primary, key and since the primary is a candidate key therefore R is in BOC normal form. Now R may or may not be in fourth normal form. 1. If R contains no multi value dependency then R will be in Fourth normal form. 2. Assume R has the following two-multi value dependencies: a ------->> b and a ---------->> c In this case R will be in the fourth normal form if b and c dependent on each other. However if b and c are independent of each otherthen R is not in fourth normal form and the relation has to be projected to following two non-loss projections. These non-loss projections will be in fourth normal form. Example:Case 1: Assume the following relation:Employee (Eid:pk1, Language:pk2, Skill:pk3) No multi value dependency, therefore R is in fourth normal form. case 2: Assume the following relation with multi-value dependency: Employee (Eid:pk1, Languages:pk2, Skills:pk3) Eid ---->> Languages Eid ------>> Skills Languages and Skills are dependent. This says an employee speak several languages and has several skills. However for each skill a specific language is used when that skill is practiced. EidLanguage Skill 100 English Teaching 100 Kurdish Politic 100 French cooking 200 English cooking 200 Arabic Singing Thus employee 100 when he/she teaches speaks English but when he cooks speaks French. This relation is in fourth normal form and does not suffer from any anomalies.
case 3: Assume the following relation with multi-value dependency: Employee (Eid:pk1, Languages:pk2, Skills:pk3) Eid ---->> Languages Eid ------>> Skills Languages and Skills are independent. EidLanguage Skill 100 English Teaching 100 Kurdish Politic 100 English politic 100 Kurdish Teaching 200 Arabic Singing This relation is not in fourth normal form and suffers from all three types of anomalies.Insertion anomaly:To insert row (200 English Cooking) we have to insert two extra rows (200 Arabic cooking), and (200 English Singing) otherwise the database will be inconsistent. Note the table will be as follow: Eid Language Skill 100 English Teaching 100 Kurdish Politic 100 English politic 100 Kurdish Teaching 200 Arabic Singing 200 English Cooking 200 Arabic Cooking 200 English Singing Deletion anomaly: If employee 100 discontinue politic skill we have to delete two rows (100 Kurdish Politic), and (100 English Politic) otherwise the database will be inconsistent.Update anomaly:If employee 200 changes his skill from singing to dancing we have to make changes in more than one place The relation is projected to the following two non-loss projections which are in forth normal form Emplyee_Language(Eid:pk1, Languages:pk2) EidLanguage 100 English 100 Kurdish 200 Arabic Emplyee_Language(Eid:pk1, Skills:pk2) EidSkill 100 Teaching 100 Politic 200 Singing

Not all religious people hate Charles Darwin. Some religious individuals may disagree with his theory of evolution because they believe it contradicts their religious beliefs about the origins of life. However, many individuals are able to reconcile their religious beliefs with the scientific theory of evolution.

Many religions had to come to grips with the fact that the biblical creation story could not possible be anything more than metaphor. Some religious sects refuse to consider the overwhelming evidence amassed against their ideological positions and remain in denial of the truth.

Yes, Charles Darwin spoke French. He learned French during his education at a young age and continued to use it throughout his life for scientific correspondence and research.

Charles Darwin first traveled to investigate geology in 1831 on a scientific expedition to South America, particularly to regions in Argentina and Chile. This trip had a significant impact on his understanding of geology, which later influenced his theory of evolution by natural selection.

First of all, Charles Darwin said he was not an atheist but an agnostic. He started out training to be a doctor, like his father; but he found the operations - in those days without anasthetic - too much to bear and left medical school. It was something of a tradition that failed doctors became priests and Darwin did study divinity before his trip on the Beagle which led to his discovery of evolution. Rather surprisingly, it wasn't the attacks by the Church on Darwin over his theory of evolution by natural selection, but the death of his daughter Annie in 1851 at the age of 10 that made him lose his Christian faith. He described the loss of faith as an ebbing away, rather than as a sudden change in belief.

Sergei Eisenstein promoted the idea of intellectual montage in film editing, where the juxtaposition of images creates new meaning and emotions beyond the individual shots themselves. He believed that editing was a powerful tool for creating emotional and intellectual impact on the audience.

The Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection, as an explanation for the development of life on earth and its current form and diversity, is taught in many school science courses, but not in all.

According to my interviewee:

there so many instances that affect my work by conflict and consensus theory

In Consensus Theory, for example i have a students that are hard to speak straight tagalog and hard to adapt the new environment because he/she was came from province, so I'm the one who make more adjustment.

In Conflict Theory, for example you a have a students that are rich and also you have a students that are not too rich, all the favors of you was only at your students which is rich. In this situation there is a inequality between the the students because in conflict theory the more you richer the more you have the power, it is all about class conflict.

Darwin's theory of evolution, which proposed that species evolved over time through natural selection, provided a scientific basis for understanding the diversity of life forms on Earth. Realism in literature and art often focuses on presenting events, characters, and settings in a realistic and truthful manner. Darwin's theory of evolution influenced Realism by emphasizing the importance of observing and representing the natural world with accuracy and detail.

Charles Darwin was educated at home by his sister Caroline and later attended the University of Edinburgh in Scotland to study medicine. He then transferred to the University of Cambridge to study divinity and later natural history.

Deconstructionist theory is a type of conflict theory that focuses on revealing the underlying power dynamics and assumptions in society's structures, language, and discourse. It aims to challenge traditional ways of thinking and disrupt binary oppositions to uncover multiple meanings and perspectives.

The theory of evolution was big and many religious people disagree with it. Now there are 2 party's the Christians Muslims monks etc they are religious and will tell you god made the world but the Evolutionists will tell you about the big bang.
