Fetal Development(Writing chronologically)


Pregnancy continues to 38weeks Conception begins when a woman's egg is fertilized by a sperm. With a day, the egg begins to develop rapidly such as differentiation into a group of cells called a blastocyst. Since then, Blastcyst moves into uterus and has increased in size to hundreds of cells. Be the eighth day after conception the blastocyst has begun to attach to the wall of the uterus where it will grow at a rapid rate. Fetal development can be classified into 3 stages such as the first trimester, the second trimester and the third timester.

The first trimester refers to the period of 12weeks after conception. In 2 weeks after fertilization, the blastocyst is called an embro. At this time, the embryo is about 1/100 of an inch long. The embryo continues to grow and then it develops a head and a trunk at 4 weeks. Structures that will become arms and legs, called limb buds, begin to appear. A blood vessels forms which will later develop into the heart and circulatory system. At the same time, a ridge of tissue forms which will be brain and spinal cord. At 6 weeks, the heart has four chambers. Fingers and toes begin to form. Cells are starting to form the eyes, ears, jaws, lungs, stomach, intestines and liver. In 8 weeks, muscles and skeleton are developing. The fetal heartbeast can be detected with a heart monitor and fingers have nails at 10 weeks. Then 12 weeks, the fetus is about 3-1/2 inches and weighs about 2 ounces. The fetus begin to swallow, the kidneys make urine, and blood begins to form in the bone marrow. At this point the sex can be indentified.

The second trimester is from 14 weeks to 22 weeks of pregnancy. At 14weeks the skin appears transparent and a fine layer of hair begins to grow on the head. The fetus can blink, grasp and move its mouth at 16 weeks. At the same time the fetus begin to kick, although woman may not be able to feel the movement. In 18weeks, the woman may feel the fetus moving. At this time, if an ultrasound is performed, the parents may be told the sex. At least after 20 weeks, the fetus may have a little chance to servive outside the woman's body.

The last time of the second trimester, the fetus is about 8-1/4 to 8-1/2 inches and weighs about 1-1/4 pounds. The mother's sounds such as breathing, heartbeat and voice can be heard at this time. During the third trimester, the fetus grows fully to be delivered from the mother's body. At 24weeks, the fetus can respond to sound, wake and sleep. And the eyes are partially open and can perceive light at 26weeks. also 9 out of 10 babies will survive. At 28weeks, the fetus can open and close its eyes and suck thumb. Breathing and body temperature are controlled by the brain. Since then almost all babies will survive. In 32 weeks, the eyes are close during the sleep. And the skin is now pink and smooth. After 34weeks, the fetus can turn and lift its head. After that lungs are usually mature and fetus can grasp firmly. Also the fetus turns toward light sources at 36weeks. Finally, at 38weeks, the fetus is about 14inches and weigh from 6-1/2 to 10 pounds. At that time, a baby is full-term and reagy to be born.

Subsequently, those kinds of medical information in detail mentioned above may help woman to feel the mysteris of life whether she keeps pregency or consider abortion. In particular, if mother takes a medicine she can understand cleary its fetal effects to the fetus. As a result, each mother and a unborn child is unique. A pregnant woman as well as a fetus should be treated as a special life.

comparison & contrast of way of life


In sociology, a lifestyle is the way a person lives.

A lifestyle is a characteristic bundle of behaviors including social relation, entertainment and dress. People's behavior within lifestyles can be led from habits, conventional ways of doing things, and reasoned actions. A lifestyle typically not only reflects an individual's attitudes and values but also creates cultural symbols in every country. For example, there are different and similar lifesytles between Koreans and Americans. And it can be easily identified in several points of view such as a personal life, a social life and an emotional life.

In a personal life, American ways of life are more individual than those of Korean. But, nowadays, A Korean's individual tendency is increased than it was 20years ago. An individual life has two faces; one is to be independent, and the other is to be selfish. For example, new generation seems to be lack of consideration about others. On the contrary, American ways of life taking care of family are similar to Korean. Most men spend time playing with their kids, in particular during the weekend.

In a social point of view, American ways of life in an office looks much freer than those of Korean. They can call a boss by his first name. Also when a boss tells something, they stay on the chair. However, In Korea we usually call a boss by his position. Moreover if we do not stand up when a boss ask us to do something, we could get a bad credit. This kind of attitude of Korean makes our office life not so free as that of American.

Similarly, a lifestyle of American that reflects their emotional life is less complicated than that of Korean. It can make their thought simple and concentrated on one thing. Korean people are in complicated relationships with families, friends and coworkers. Besides, American is not as aggressive and haste as Korean.
Also, Americans are less interested in other's personal life than Koreans have. On the other hand, Korean is as compassionate as American.

On the whole everybody and every country have their own a way of life. Compared American's lifestyle to Korea's lifestyle in personal, social and emotional ways, similar but different lifestyles exit in two countries. The most important thing is to understand and accept others characteristics each other.

Detroit


Type your summary here

In 1980, Detroit hosted the Republican National Convention which nominated Ronald Reagan to a successful bid for President of the United States. Four years later, the city again appeared on the national radar, but for unwanted reasons: rioting in the wake of the Detroit Tigers' World Series championship left three dead and millions of dollars in property damage.

In the 1990s, the city began to enjoy a revival, much of it centered downtown. Comerica Tower at Detroit Center (1993) arose on the city skyline. In the ensuing years, three casinos opened in Detroit: MGM Grand Detroit, Motor City Casino, and Greektown Casino which are now adding resorts. New downtown stadiums were constructed for the Detroit Tigers and Detroit Lions in 2000 and 2002, respectively; this put the Lions' home stadium in the city proper for the first time since 1974. The city hosted the 2005 MLB All-Star Game, 2006 Super Bowl XL, 2006 World Series and WrestleMania 23 in 2007, all which prompted many improvements to the downtown area. The city's riverfront is the focus of much development; in 2007, the first portions of the Detroit River Walk were laid, including miles of parks and fountains. This new urban development in Detroit is a mainstay in the city's earnest desire to reinvent its economic identity through tourism.[27] Along the river, upscale million dollar condos are going up, such as Watermark Detroit, some of the most expensive the city has ever seen.

If I were single?


If you are married, how would your life be different if you were single?


If you are married, how would your life be different if you were single?

In socialized eras, marriage is one of the social life. As we may know, there are lots of responsibilities, restricted actions and morale behaviors in marriage. After married, people would miss their single life at least one or two times. It will be easy that we could imagine our single life. If we were single, how would our life be different?

In terms of personal life, we would be free from lots of responsibility of keeping family relationship, taking care of family members such as cooking, washing clothes, participating on relative's events. We can save time from the housework and enjoy more personal life such as studying anytime, meeting friends anytime, traveling anywhere and eating anytime. But we would waste of time unless we would manage time well in daily life.

In aspect of social life in work, we would stay longer in the office. We can be focusing on our work even during weekend. It means that we don’t need to take care of a family. If we find a job, we could have more chances to choose a job without regard to distance and time. However, single life without a counselor, a spouse, would be in trouble easily. Marriage is a kind of social activities which we can experience relationship as a social member. It could make us adapt to social life easily.

Regarding of emotional aspects, of course single life would have freedom and can keep our composure. Also, there is an another type of responsibilities in single life compared to marriage one. We have to do everything on our own responsibility. But, we could feel lonely easily in particular under the weather. Those could be a burden on single life.

In conclusion, single life has various merits such as fewer responsibilities for a family and more freedom compared to marriage life. But, if we were in single life we should not neglect to control life on our own responsibility.

Define mobile phone


Mobile phone is a widely used portable electronic device that is called a mobile, wireless, cellular phone, cell phone or hand phone.


Mobile phone is a widely used portable electronic device that is called a mobile, wireless, cellular phone, cell phone or hand phone.

It is similar to a wireless telegraph and a beeper. But, it supports more advanced function to communicate. Basic function of mobile phone is voice and data communication. As users increased, an advanced technology brought various convenient services into mobile phone such as SMS, email, camera function, etc. Also, there are more additional supports. For example, access to the Internet, scheduling, dictionary, calculator and listening to music make our life easier than before. Young people would like to have a full functioned mobile phone. It is no doubt that the number of mobile phone users is steadily growing.

Thus, many companies in the world produce developed models each year. Nokia in Dutch, Samsung in Korea and Motorola in USA are the most popular companies in the world. There is a keen competition in the mobile phone industry. In Korea, the Samsung company competes against LG company in price and design.

Usually, characteristics of mobile phone which is produced by several manufacturers are almost same as each other in figure such as slim, small sized and handful, flat and buttonish. But, some company make it in various colors. These characteristics entice consumers, in particular young people. As time went on, most companies are trying to manufacture upgraded models in function as well as in design. But, It also means that people have to lose their money only because of a new model.

As I mentioned above, the most important effect is easy communication. Also it can make us enable to multitasking such as scheduling arrangement, taking picture, playing games, accessing Internet and even banking work. Among these merits, the most useful one is a portable which can make people's life convenient. Another important reason of using a mobile phone is in case of emergency, in particular children and old people.

In fact, as scientific technological process, people have all advantages of gifts from civilization. One of the gifts is a mobile phone. But, people should not fail to notice that there are dual-aspects in every high technology.
