What is the social systems approach to interviewing, and what themes are found in modern social systems theory?

Can you please explain your question a little more in detail, I am not sure what is being asked..

I’ve seen in some car sound systems that they have these metal tanks with tubes coming out of them and they look kind of like a fire extinguisher. What are these and what do they do?

To put the previous answer in a way that is a little more understandable. It is a capacitor, which is kind of like a secondary battery. It stores an electrical charge so when you have a high draw sound system it doesn’t put a huge pull on your battery. If you ever see someone with a kicking system who’s headlights dim on the bass beat they don’t have a capacitor and need one.

What systems do you use when playing a video game and how are they involved? This is for a science project please help! Thanks!

it depends on how deep you want to go
to start off with you have the visual, auditory, skeletal, muscular, respiratory, CNS, PNS, SMS, ANS
Reflexes involving cranial nerves
Name Sensory Motor
Pupillary light reflex II III
Accommodation reflex II III
Jaw jerk reflex V V
Corneal reflex, also known as the blink reflex V VII
Caloric reflex test/Vestibulo-ocular reflex VIII III, IV, VI +
Gag reflex IX X

[edit] Reflexes usually only observed in human infants
Main article: Primitive reflexes

Grasp reflexNewborn babies have a number of other reflexes which are not seen in adults, referred to as primitive reflexes.[3] These include:

Asymmetrical tonic neck reflex (ATNR)
Grasp reflex
Hand-to-mouth reflex
Moro reflex, also known as the startle reflex
Sucking
Symmetrical tonic neck reflex (STNR)
Tonic labyrinthine reflex (TLR)
[edit] Other reflexes
Other reflexes found in the central nervous system include:

Anocutaneous reflex
Bulbocavernosus reflex
Escape reflex
Oculocardiac reflex
Optokinetic reflex
Photic sneeze reflex
Mammalian diving reflex
Muscular defense
Scratch reflex
Startle reflex
Withdrawal reflex
Crossed extensor reflex
Many of these reflexes are quite complex requiring a number of synapses in a number of different nuclei in the CNS (e.g., the escape reflex). Others of these involve just a couple of synapses to function (eg., the withdrawal reflex). Processes such as breathing, digestion, and the maintenance of the heartbeat can also be regarded as reflex actions, according to some definitions of the term.

If you can, please give an address to another website. I need to know specifically how this system helps other systems. All systems it helps. Please!!

The digestive system is key basically to all systems in a very indirect way.

First we must understand the digestive system and it’s function. The digestive system starts in the mouth with salivary amylase breaking down carbohydrates. As it is swallowed, it is propelled by peristalsis to the stomach. Once the lower esophageal sphincter opens to allow food to enter the stomach, the stomach begins to secrete many acids and enzymes to commence digestion of certain molecules. It should also be noted that secretion in the stomach happens prior to feeding (cephalic phase of feeding).

The digestive system works entirely on it’s own type of nervous system known as the enteric nervous system. This aids in the movement of food, the innervation, etc. Without certain molecules such as glucose, the brain could not function and the individual would die. Without proper release of intrinsic factor from parietal cells in the stomach, results in deficient vitamin B12 absorption which results in megaloblastic anemia.

Without the digestive system, nothing could be absorbed or excreted, which results in malnutrition and cell fuel insufficiency causing apoptosis. Also, the digestive system helps in excretion in the sense that you need bile salts from the liver (which come from cholesterol), to help emulsify and digest fat. Without these, the body would not be able to digest or excrete fat.

Remember that the digestive system helps degrade and absorb simple compounds such as carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. These are the fundamental building blocks of our survival. A simple defect in an enzyme could cause death before adolescence. All absorbed nutrients are used to help the body maintain homeostasis. (sphingolipids such as galactocerbroside 3-phosphate, or any steroid hormone from cholesterol, or iodine deficiency causing decreased amount of thyroid hormone).

I Hope that helped

I’m doing a paper for biology & i need some help. she said to list & explain what other systems work with the urinary system. can you please list some for me & if you know a website i can go to for the info on how that would be great

How the Urinary System Works
The urinary system is made up of the adrenal glands, renal arteries, the kidneys, aorta, ureters, common iliac arteries, urinary bladder, urethra, and in men, the prostate. As food enters the body, various cells break it down into energy. As the energy is released, so are various chemical byproducts that then collect in the bloodstream. The kidneys cleanse the blood of this waste and turns it into urine. Next, the ureters transport the urine to the urinary bladder. The bladder then expands to accommodate the extra fluid. When it stretches to its limit, urine is then sent to the urethra and out of the body. In men, urine also passes through the prostrate before it is released.
Other Systems
The urinary system, like all systems in the body, does not work alone. It has an interdependent relationship with the endocrine system, the circulatory system, the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. The adrenal glands, also a part of the endocrine system, secrete a chemical substance that allows the kidneys to effectively regulate fluids in the body. This process is directly related to blood pressure and the circulatory system. The urinary system is also closely related to the circulatory system by virtue of the processes of cleansing the blood of waste, removing excess fluids and generally keeping other fluids in balance. The nervous and musculoskeletal systems also play a part. They work in concert with the urinary system to regulate the release of urine. Children still in diapers have yet to develop these systems fully. The bladder is a muscle that can expand and contract as necessary to accommodate or expel urine. When the bladder is full, the nervous system receives messages that it is time to go. The muscles in the bladder and urethra help us to "hold it" when no bathroom is in sight.
The Importance of Urinary Health
Since the urinary system is so interdependent with other systems in the body, its failure to operate effectively can have serious health effects. The kidneys in particular are susceptible to a host of problems. While some problems are inherited and often untreatable, there are many things that the average person can do to ensure that kidney problems do not develop. First, a good exercise regimen and healthy diet are essential. People should drink plenty of water and limit intake of soda, tea and coffee. Certain drugs can have adverse effects on the kidneys, so it is important to discuss concerns with a doctor. Finally, blood pressure should be monitored regularly. High blood pressure is often an indicator of kidney problems. If the problem is caught early, it can usually be resolved.

The reproduction system and the cardiovascular system , how do the systems interact and support each other?

The reproductive system doesn’t do anything to support the cardiovascular system, although sexual arousal has the obvious effect of engorgement of the corpora cavernosa (singular: Corpus cavernosum) of the penis and clitoris, and also the corpus spongiosum of the penis, with blood, but this is an effect on the phallic vascular physiology, rather than the cardiovascular system.

Regarding how the cardiovascular system interacts with the reproductive system, …well, there you have it. As for support, there are a variety of blood vessels that supply blood to the various bits and pieces of the reproductive system, just as with any other part of the body. A look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arterial_tree will help you out there.

Both the nucleus and mitochondria are enclosed by double membranes. Both membranes contain channel systems that regulate the flow of molecules. What is the fundamental difference between these channel systems in the nucleus and the mitochondria. Why is this difference important?

I not agreee!!!

Is a Computer information systems student the same as an information technology student? I’m trying to enroll and make the right decision.What is the difference is any? Please help.

They’re not the same.

IT is refer to an entire industry. Certainly, this industry is the use of computers and software in managing information. While, Information systems are the software and hardware systems that maintain data-intensive applications.

I am not talking about home theater - in -a box (pre-boxed) systems like sony or panasonic that are usually under $500.

I am talking about the ones you usually put all the components together yourself. I have zero knowledge as to who makes the best home theaters systems.

It would great if you list down several brands and top websites that sell them.

You should probably check out Amazon (link below) for most of these, as they offer free shipping on most AV receivers and can generally take $100 or more off the price of a receiver. I actually spoke with an AV pro at Circuit City the other day, and here were his feelings on receivers:

Top of the line: Denon (and some Sony’s). They just make the highest quality receivers that are capable of doing pretty much anything you want. However, he did forewarn me (and I believe it) that setting up a Denon system is not for the faint of heart of the inexperienced. He said he’s seen people struggle with it for days before calling in an expert.

Pretty good: Yamaha and Onkyo (and Harmon Kardon). Both make similar style receivers that are fairly (moderately) intuitive to set up. I know Onkyo provides a microphone that is supposed to optimize the sound quality and the point where you put the mike. I don’t think Yamaha’s have that on their mid-range receivers.

After that: Sherwood and other makers. Just not the kind of product you want to buy if you’re looking for quality. These are more of the "just-scraping-by" style recievers. I’d spend the little extra to make sure you got a quality product that will last you more than a year or two.

For someone who’s just looking to get into the market (which it sounds like you are), you may want to look at the Onkyo TX-SR605 style reciever. It has up-converstion, meaning that you can run one single HDMI cable to your HDTV, and all other video signals will be formatted to work. It has 2 HDMI inputs, 3 component video inputs, and 4 digital audio inputs, which should be plenty to last a while. The set up is fairly obvious on the entire receiver and provides plenty of power to the speakers. Most importantly, you can find it (right now) for $400-$500 USD at several retail outlets, including Amazon. A great receiver if you’re just getting into them.

Also, speakers are a different subject. You don’t want the brands I listed above, you want to look into Boston Acoustics, Polk Audio, Bose and JBL, to name a few. The sound quality and speaker make up will be much better and last longer. You want a cone (the part that makes the sound) that is not paper, but ceramic, plastic and/or part titanium.

Hope this helps! Check out the link below Amazon (CNET) for more comprehensive reviews of everything you’re looking for.

I have been considering buying a used PS3 for less money from Gamestop, and they have "Gamestop Refurbished Systems" online for sale. I was wondering if anyone knew if they worked well. Thanks!

I know someone who bought one of those refurbished systems and has never had a problem with it. so i’d say go for it!

plus, if you buy one from them and it turns out to still have something wrong with it, take it back to them and they have to replace it for you (with i think) a brand new system as a replacement because they messed up.
