2. It describes the physical, mental, emotional, and social changes that occur during each life stage, including infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood.
3. The stages discussed include prenatal period, infancy, early childhood, late childhood, puberty, adolescence, early adulthood, middle adulthood, and old age. Each stage brings changes in height, weight, intellectual skills, social interactions, and emotional maturity.
This document discusses the physical and psychological changes that occur during puberty and adolescence. It covers changes in height, weight, body composition and secondary sex characteristics from ages 9-17. Internally, organs increase in size and reproductive maturity occurs. For females, the first menstrual period or menarche signals the ability to reproduce. The document also outlines common psychological effects such as mood swings, self-consciousness and social challenges that teenagers may face during this period of development. Maintaining physical activity and open communication can help manage effects on attitudes and behaviors.
This document outlines the key stages of human development from prenatal through adulthood. It describes the stages as: prenatal, infancy (birth to 3 years), childhood (3 to 12 years with early childhood from 3 to 6 years and later childhood from 6 to 12 years), adolescence (12 to 19 years with early adolescence from 12 to 15 years and later adolescence from 15 to 19 years), and adulthood (beyond 19 years). For each stage, it lists developmental characteristics such as physical, motor, emotional, social, intellectual development.
The document defines adolescence as the period between childhood and adulthood according to various sources such as dictionaries and scholars. It notes that the World Health Organization defines adolescents as those between 10-19 years old. Some key aspects of adolescence discussed include physical changes associated with puberty like growth spurts and development of secondary sex characteristics. Challenges during this stage include identity development, increased sexuality and experimentation, and transitioning to relative independence. Health issues affecting adolescents relate to nutrition, mental health, risky behaviors, and injuries.
Adolescence involves significant physical, cognitive, and social development. Puberty brings sexual maturation between ages 11-13 which includes growth of sexual organs and secondary sex characteristics. Brain development allows for advanced reasoning and abstract thought. Socially, adolescents develop a stronger sense of identity and morality as they establish independence from parents and bond with peers. They transition into emerging adulthood between 18-25 where they live independently while attending college or working.
The document discusses the cognitive development of adolescents. It notes that adolescence is a period of growing abstract thought and intellectual interests. Cognitive abilities progress from a focus on the present during early adolescence to a greater capacity for goal-setting and consideration of morality and the future in middle and late adolescence. Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development identifies the adolescent period as the formal operational stage, characterized by logic, abstract thought, and problem-solving skills. The prefrontal cortex continues developing during this time. While cognitive growth is normal, adolescents may engage in risky experimentation as they navigate this challenging developmental period.
Peer pressure is the social pressure by members of one's peer group to take certain actions, adopt certain values, or otherwise conform in order to be accepted. Peer pressure increases throughout adolescence as teens seek greater independence from parents and build stronger social relationships with peers. It can influence both positive and negative behaviors.
In this PPT i have discussed regarding sexuality and sexual health. The sub topics covered under sexuality and sexual health are as under:
1) Introduction
2) Definition of sexuality, human sexuality and sexual health
3) Importance of sexual health
4) Components of sexual health
5) Factor affecting sexual health
This document summarizes the significant life stages from young adulthood to late adulthood. It describes young adulthood from ages 20-40 as a time of experimentation and independence. Middle adulthood from ages 40-60 involves expanding responsibilities and reassessing priorities. Late adulthood from age 60 onward includes adjusting to retirement, declining health, and reviewing one's life. Key characteristics and changes are described for each phase.
Puberty is the period when children experience physical changes that turn their bodies into those capable of reproduction. Girls typically start puberty earlier than boys. During puberty, both males and females experience growth of sexual organs and body hair. Hormonal changes cause breast growth, menstruation and voice changes in females, and penis and testicle growth and wet dreams in males. Puberty is triggered by genes and hormones in the hypothalamus, pituitary gland and gonads. Taking daily showers, using deodorant and properly caring for hair, skin and teeth are important for hygiene during puberty.
Adolescence occurs between puberty and legal adulthood, typically between ages 12-19. It involves physical, psychological, and social changes. Physically, adolescents experience puberty and rapid growth. Psychologically, they develop a separate identity from parents and form new relationships. Their cognitive abilities also advance to think more abstractly. Socially, peer relationships become important and they gain independence from family. This stage presents both opportunities and hazards as adolescents adjust to these significant developmental changes.
The document discusses the key differences between growth and development. It defines growth as a quantitative increase in body size, height, and weight, while development refers to qualitative changes that result in improved functioning. Growth mainly affects physical maturation and stops at maturity, whereas development is a continuous process from birth to death that includes physical, intellectual, emotional and social changes. The document also outlines several principles of development, including that it is a continuous process that follows an orderly pattern from general to specific responses and is influenced by both heredity and the environment.
This document provides information about reproductive health, sexual health, and reproductive rights. It defines reproductive health as complete physical, mental and social well-being related to reproductive functions. Sexual health is defined as having a responsible and safe sex life free from risks. Reproductive rights include the rights to make decisions about reproductive lives and attain the highest standard of sexual and reproductive health. Sexual rights include rights to make decisions on matters of sexuality free from discrimination, coercion or violence.
The document then discusses female genital mutilation, gender and gender equality, and provides information about puberty and the physical and emotional changes that occur during puberty for boys and girls.
The document discusses nutrition needs during adolescence. It states that due to rapid growth during adolescence, teenagers have greater needs for certain nutrients. It is important that food choices are made carefully to support this growth. The Food Guide Pyramid for Teens emphasizes a balanced diet from five main food groups and shows recommended daily servings. Following the healthy eating guidelines in the pyramid is important for adolescents to develop to their full potential and improve their nutritional status.
Adolescence typically begins around age 11 and lasts until 18-19 years old, marking the transition between childhood and adulthood. During this time, puberty causes the body to undergo many changes through the increased production of hormones like estrogen and testosterone. These changes include increased height and weight, development of secondary sex characteristics like growth of body hair and changes in voice, and attainment of reproductive maturity. Maintaining good nutrition, hygiene, and exercise habits is important for health during this period of rapid physical and mental development.

Stages or periods of development and learning
Principles of human growth and developmentAnil Gowda
The document discusses various principles of growth and development from conception to death. It explains that growth and development is a continuous process that follows sequential patterns from general to specific and from the head downward and center of the body outward. Development depends on maturation and learning, proceeding from simple to more complex. While growth rates differ between individuals, development typically shows common characteristics at particular stages, being gradual and orderly but uneven in pace.
Puberty is the process of physical and mental changes during adolescence caused by hormones. Girls typically start puberty between ages 10-11 and finish between 15-17, while boys start between 11-12 and finish between 16-17. Changes include growth spurts, body hair, body odor, acne, voice changes in boys, and menstruation in girls. Puberty prepares the body for adulthood and ends between ages 18-20.
Adolescence describes the transitional period from childhood to adulthood between ages 13-19. During this time, adolescents experience significant physical changes through puberty and work to develop their identity and independence. They begin to separate from parents and form close relationships with peers, who can influence their behavior and risk-taking. It is important that parents educate adolescents about safety, sexuality and healthy development during this transition to adulthood.
This document discusses the changes that occur during puberty for boys. It covers physical changes like growth of body hair, facial hair and genitals. It also discusses emotional changes like mood swings. Specific physical changes covered include growth of body and muscles, deepening of voice, development of sweat glands and acne. The document provides information on erections, ejaculation and nocturnal emissions as normal parts of puberty. It concludes by offering tips for personal hygiene and lifestyle during puberty.
This document discusses puberty and adolescence. It defines puberty as the period when a child undergoes sexual maturation and transitions from asexual to sexual being, typically between ages 10-16. Puberty involves physical changes like growth spurts and development of secondary sex characteristics. It can be an emotionally difficult time due to rapid changes. Adolescence is defined as the period from ages 13-19 when individuals progress towards adulthood. This involves continued physical development as well as emotional, mental and social maturation. Adolescence presents both opportunities and challenges as individuals work to develop an identity and independence.
The document discusses various topics related to adolescent and elderly health, including common physical, emotional, social, and cognitive changes that occur during adolescence and aging. It also outlines some of the main health issues faced by adolescents like STIs, substance abuse, and nutrition deficiencies and by the elderly like dementia, depression, and physical decline. The document emphasizes the importance of addressing both the physical and mental health needs of adolescents and the elderly.

The Developing Brain, Adolescence and Vulnerability to Drug AbuseJack Tonkin
1. Adolescence is a period of significant brain maturation that continues into early adulthood, with the prefrontal cortex maturing last.
2. This arrested development leaves teenagers more vulnerable to risky and impulsive behaviors due to a imbalance between earlier developing limbic structures and later developing prefrontal control regions.
3. Teenagers are especially vulnerable to drug and alcohol abuse due to this brain development imbalance and evidence that substances like alcohol produce stronger rewarding and cognitive effects during adolescence compared to adulthood.
Adolescence is a time of significant physical, emotional and social changes as teenagers transition into adulthood. Their bodies change through puberty while families, schools and society demand more independence and responsibility. This can cause stress and conflict between teenagers and their parents. Proper nutrition, exercise and self-care are important for physical and mental health during these formative years.
Alcohol And Adolescence What Every Educator Should KnowSarah Pahl
Presentation designed to equip educators of adolescents with knowledge of alcohol's effects on adolescent brains and bodies, the ability to identify risk and protective factors, and specific tools for the classroom to communicate positive prevention messages.
1. The physiology of emotion involves complex mental and physical components that originate from cognitive appraisals and are manifested through changes in the autonomic nervous system and body.
2. Several theories have attempted to explain the relationship between physiological arousal and emotional experience, including James-Lange theory, Cannon-Bard theory, and Schachter-Singer theory.
3. Key brain regions involved in emotion include the limbic system, amygdala, hypothalamus, and pathways like the Papez circuit. Specific emotions engage distinct neural circuits and produce unique physiological responses.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Health Psychology. By Theresa Lowry-Lehnen. Lecturer of Psychology.Theresa Lowry-Lehnen
This document discusses health psychology and the factors that influence health and illness. It covers the following key points:
1. Health psychology examines the biological, psychological, and social factors that influence physical health and illness. It takes a biopsychosocial approach.
2. Psychological factors like stress can directly and indirectly impact health by influencing health behaviors and choices.
3. Health psychologists focus on health promotion, prevention and treatment of illness, and helping people adjust to illness or follow treatment plans.
4. Personality, coping styles, social support systems, health habits, and illness perceptions all influence health according to health psychology.
The document provides an overview of the brain and its functions. It discusses:
1) The basic anatomy and cells of the brain, including neurons, glial cells, grey and white matter.
2) The six main functions of the brain: thinking and cognition, emotion and feeling, signaling, perception and sensing, physical functions, and behavior.
3) How different areas of the brain are specialized for different tasks like language processing, attention, and regulating emotions.
4) How neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine influence brain functions like mood and signaling responses to threats.
The document provides an introduction to educational psychology and adolescent development. It discusses key concepts in educational psychology including learning, thinking, development and motivation. It then focuses on defining adolescence and perspectives on adolescent development, including historical views and stereotypes. Finally, it covers processes and periods of adolescent development, applying Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory to understand the social contexts that influence development. Understanding development enables teachers to implement developmentally appropriate practices.
This document discusses adolescent reproductive and sexual health (ARSH) in India. It notes that adolescents aged 10-19 make up 22% of India's population and face increased health risks like anemia, early marriage, teenage pregnancy, and STIs/HIV. The ARSH strategy aims to reduce teenage pregnancies and meet contraceptive needs through health services, capacity building, and communication activities. It also discusses establishing linkages between ARSH and HIV programs to address shared challenges and risks factors cost-effectively. The strategies proposed to promote adolescent health include adopting healthy lifestyles, organizing youth-friendly clinics, providing life skills training, counseling, and empowering adolescents.
A group of adolescents of standard IX was selected. The average age of the students was 14 to 15 years including 50% each of male and female sex. Then pre-test was conducted to test the knowledge regarding adolescence changes before pretest the selected adolescence group was taken in to confidence and they were given introduction of the subject to be tested. Then the test was conducted and evaluated. it was found that the adolescence students have very less knowledge about puberty, secondary sexual characters, behavioral changes menarche , menstrual cycle and wet dreams in their body of both male and female adolescence. It was observed that adolescence stage needed right scientific knowledge of about inadequate. As per the results obtained in the pretest it was found that, average score of the selected group was 8.6 and for pretest and post-test it was 18.2 respectively. Whereas, the selected group was given right scientific knowledge of puberty, secondary sexual characters, behavioral changes menarche, menstrual cycle and wet dreams in details using charts, clips, lecture and power point presentation. the students were also allowed to ask doubts and questions they had in their mind. There after a post test of same questionnaire was conducted and students answer paper was evaluated and analyzed to formulate the data score it was found that the results of post test score were 18.2 and it was obviously improved 2.5 times as compare to the pretest hence it was concluded that the standard IX students of age group 14 to 15 from rural semi urban and urban India perform very well as compare to the pretest., and the evaluation data is 49.5 %. Hence the impact of adolescence education was very necessary and important for the teenagers.
A presentation I created for a Human Behavior in the Social Environment course at Radford University on several key ideas of adolescents. Feedback is appreciated.
Adolescence is a period of immense change and development between childhood and adulthood. It involves hormonal, physical, cognitive, and emotional changes. During this time, adolescents experience self-discovery, developing independence from family while establishing social relationships and identity. However, adolescence also brings stress, confusion, and risk-taking behaviors that can lead to problems like substance abuse, violence, and mental health issues. Counseling aims to help adolescents and their families navigate this transition through open communication, support systems, and building life skills.
Adolescence is a time of significant brain development and maturation. Changes in the prefrontal cortex during this period can impact risk-taking behavior, attention, and motivation in teenagers. Studies show the prefrontal cortex, which regulates cognitive control and decision making, continues developing into a person's 20s. As a result, teenagers may engage in more impulsive and reward-seeking behavior compared to adults due to an imbalance between developing brain regions. However, with age the prefrontal cortex matures and allows for better regulation of behavior and attention.
The document discusses mental health and mental illness. It defines mental health as maintaining successful mental activity and fulfilling relationships while adapting to change. Mental illness occurs when the brain is not functioning properly, disrupting thinking, emotions, behavior, or physical functioning. Common symptoms include sleep problems, mood swings, and difficulty focusing. Mental illness is caused by a complex interplay between genetics and environment and results in abnormal brain functioning. While some illnesses begin in childhood, others often emerge during adolescence. Most people with mental illness can live productive lives with treatment. The document encourages seeking help from others if experiencing prolonged sadness, anger, or risky behaviors.
Adolescence is a period of rapid physical and mental growth between childhood and adulthood. During puberty, the body undergoes many changes due to hormones like estrogen and testosterone that prepare it for reproduction. These changes include increased height and weight, development of secondary sex characteristics, and ability to conceive children. Maintaining good hygiene, a balanced diet, and regular exercise is important for health during this stage of development.

Adolescence is the period of life between ages 10-19 when the body undergoes puberty and sexual maturation. It involves physical changes like growth spurts, development of secondary sex characteristics, and functional maturation of the reproductive organs. It is also a time of emotional changes as adolescents develop greater independence and emotional regulation. Maintaining good nutrition, hygiene, exercise and avoiding drugs are important for health during this transition to adulthood.
Cbse Class 8 Science - Chapter 10 Reaching the Age of Adolescence PPTNarayananNampoothiri1
This document provides information about adolescence and puberty in humans. It discusses that adolescence begins around age 11 and lasts until 18-19 years old, marking the transition from childhood to adulthood. Puberty is the stage of life where the body becomes capable of reproduction, typically occurring between ages 11-16 in boys and 10-15 in girls. The document outlines the physical changes that occur during puberty, including increased height and changes in body shape, development of hair and skin, voice changes, and development of sex organs and secondary sexual characteristics. These changes are controlled by hormones like testosterone and estrogen. It also discusses the menstrual cycle in females and how sex is determined in babies.
This document discusses holistic health and adolescent development. It defines holistic health as harmony across physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual dimensions. Each dimension is then discussed in more detail. For example, physical health refers to the body's state and ability to perform tasks without fatigue. Maintaining good posture, managing body odor, and addressing postural problems are also covered. The document also examines factors like heredity and environment that influence growth. Puberty and changes to primary and secondary sex characteristics are described for both males and females. Potential health issues related to these physical changes are identified, such as body odor and postural problems.
Health grade 7 first quarter Holistic Health and Its Five Dimensions Elmer Llames
The document discusses the five dimensions of holistic health - physical, mental, emotional, social, and moral-spiritual health. It provides information on physical health issues during adolescence such as postural problems, body odor, dental problems, and lack of sleep. Mental/intellectual changes include better decision making skills. Emotional changes involve increased sensitivity. Social changes see importance of peer approval. Moral-spiritual changes involve identity development. Health problems discussed are related to these physical, mental, emotional, social, and sexual changes during adolescence.
This document discusses physical and psychological development during adolescence. It describes the stages of adolescence as early, middle, and late adolescence. Puberty is characterized by hormonal changes that trigger physical transformations like growth spurts. Boys experience growth of genitals and facial hair while girls experience breast development and menarche. Both sexes' changes are driven by increases in sex hormones. Ideal body images can influence adolescents, who may pursue dangerous methods to achieve certain physiques. The document also covers sleep patterns, exploration of sexuality, and nutrition needs during this lifestage.
This document discusses the physical and hormonal changes that occur during adolescence. It defines adolescence as the period from ages 11 to 18/19 when the body undergoes changes to reach sexual maturity. Some of the changes discussed for males and females include increased height, voice changes, body shape changes, and development of secondary sex characteristics. The role of hormones like estrogen and testosterone in driving puberty is also explained. The document also covers the menstrual cycle and how the sex of a baby is determined by the chromosomes from the male sperm (X or Y).
1. The document discusses adolescent reproductive and sexual health, outlining physical, emotional, cognitive, social, and spiritual changes that occur during puberty for both males and females.
2. It describes the stages of puberty for females and males, including physical changes like growth of breasts and pubic hair, as well as emotional changes related to hormones and peer/social influences.
3. Common problems during puberty are discussed, such as stress, depression, eating disorders, acne, and concerns about physical development, as well as risky behaviors some teenagers engage in to cope. Counseling is mentioned as an important part of healthcare during this time.
The age of adolescence marks a transformative phase in an individual's life, characterized by a myriad of physical, psychological, and social changes. In the context of Class 8 science, understanding these changes is vital for a holistic grasp of human development. In this article, we delve into the intricate aspects of reaching adolescence, providing examples and comprehensive study notes to facilitate a deeper comprehension.

Physical and cognitive development occurs during adolescence. Puberty leads to sexual maturity between ages 10-14 through hormonal changes that cause growth and development of primary and secondary sex characteristics. This can be an emotional time due to brain development, as the pre-frontal cortex involved in decision making is still maturing.
Common health concerns among American adolescents include lack of physical activity, poor nutrition leading to issues like obesity, substance abuse, depression, and high rates of death from accidents and suicide. Filipino adolescent health issues also involve substance abuse, early pregnancy, and problems from child labor. Drug use stems from enjoyment, environment, curiosity, and personal problems, and preventing widespread use involves education, recreational activities, and healthy living.
Chapter 9 CLASS 8TH Reaching the age of Adolesence (1)piyushrawat29
The document provides information about adolescence and puberty. It discusses the physical, mental, and emotional changes that occur during puberty for both males and females. These include growth of body hair, changes in body shape and size, and development of secondary sexual characteristics. Hormones released by the pituitary gland, testes/ovaries, and other endocrine glands cause these changes during puberty and lead to reproductive maturity. Maintaining good hygiene, a balanced diet, physical exercise, and avoiding drugs are important for reproductive health during adolescence.
Puberty is the process of physical changes during adolescence through which a child's body matures into an adult capable of reproduction. It is initiated by hormones from the pituitary gland and causes development of primary sex characteristics. For females, puberty begins with estrogen production leading to breast development, menstruation, and fertility. For males, testosterone production causes genital and muscle growth, deepening of the voice, and sperm production. Both experience physical, mental, and emotional changes as they transition into adulthood. Maintaining good hygiene practices is important for caring for their changing bodies during this time.
1. The document discusses adolescence and puberty in humans. It explains that adolescence is the period between childhood and adulthood when the body undergoes various changes that lead to reproductive maturity.
2. During puberty, which occurs during adolescence, hormones trigger physical changes like increased height and weight, development of secondary sexual characteristics, and maturation of reproductive organs.
3. The changes that occur at puberty, such as development of breasts in girls and facial hair in boys, are controlled by hormones released from the pituitary and sex glands.
This document discusses physical development during adolescence. It begins by defining physical development as quantitative and measurable changes to the body over time, such as increases in height and weight. It then describes some key physical changes that occur during adolescence for both males and females, including the development of primary sex characteristics like the onset of menstruation and sperm/testes development, as well as secondary sex characteristics like growth of body hair. The document also notes improved motor skills during this period and increased perspiration and body odor resulting from bacterial activity on sweat. In general, it provides an overview of typical physical maturation processes in adolescence.
Physical Development of the High School Learners (Module 24)Venus Carbonel
This document discusses physical development during adolescence. It defines adolescence and outlines its three stages: early (ages 10-12), middle (ages 14-16), and late (ages 17-20). Puberty triggers physical changes like growth spurts through hormone activity. Boys and girls experience sexual maturity signs like breast growth, menstruation and wet dreams. Factors like improved nutrition have led to earlier onset of puberty. Adolescents also experience changes in sleep patterns and identity exploration. The document discusses ideal body images and nutrition needs during this critical transition to adulthood.
This document summarizes information about adolescence and puberty. It discusses the physical, emotional, and psychological changes that occur during this period, including the roles of hormones and sexual maturation. Key topics covered include the onset of puberty, secondary sex characteristics, menstruation, nutrition and hygiene needs during adolescence, and the importance of avoiding drugs and practicing safe behaviors. New terminology introduced includes adolescence, puberty, sexual characteristics, hormones, hygiene, menstruation, and metamorphosis.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...Sérgio Sacani
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defectsSérgio Sacani
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
Current Ms word generated power point presentation covers major details about the micronuclei test. It's significance and assays to conduct it. It is used to detect the micronuclei formation inside the cells of nearly every multicellular organism. It's formation takes place during chromosomal sepration at metaphase.
4. The human body under goes several changes during
Adolescence. These changes mark the onset of
PUBERTY.
The most important change which marks puberty is
that boys and girls become capable of reproduction.
Puberty ends when an adolescent reaches
reproductive maturity.
5. 1. Increase in height
2. Change in body shape
3. Voice change
4. Increased activity of sweat and
sebaceous glands
5. Development of sex organs
6. Reaching mental, intellectual and
emotional maturity
8. Present height ____

9.
10. At puberty, the voice box or the larynx begins to grow.
Boys develop larger voice boxes. Boys
have a deep and hoarse voice. The
larynx is visible clearly.
The larynx is hardly visible from the
outside. Girls have a high pitched
voice.
11. The growing voice box can be seen as a
protruding part of the throat called Adam’s
apple.
12.
13. •The testes and penis develop completely.
•The testes also begin to produce sperms.
•The ovaries enlarge and eggs begin to
mature.
•Also ovaries start releasing mature eggs.
14. •It is the time in one’s life when the brain has
the greatest capacity for learning.
•The change in a person’s way of thinking .
•The person feels more independent than
before and also becomes self conscious.
•A person may feel insecure while trying to
adjust to the changes in the body and mind.
15.
16. The changes which occur at adolescence are
controlled by chemical substances called hormones.
Hormones are secretions from endocrine glands.
•The testes begin to release male hormone or
testosterone. This causes hair growth.
•The ovaries begin to produce the female hormone or
estrogen which make the breast develop. Milk secreting
glands or mammary glands develop inside the breast.
The production of these hormones is under the control of
another hormone in endocrine gland called pituitary gland.
17.
18.
19.
20. The hormones secreted by the pituitary
stimulate testes and ovaries to produce their
hormones.
The pituitary is attached to the brain
A part from the pituitary, there are other
endocrine glands in the body such as thyroid,
pancreas and adrenals.
21.
22. The adrenal glands secrete hormones which maintain
the correct salt balance in the blood.
Adrenals also produce the hormone adrenalin.
It helps the body to adjust to stress when one is very
angry, embarrassed or worried.
Thyroid and adrenals secrete their hormones when
they receive orders from pituitary through its
hormones.
Pituitary also secretes growth hormone which is
necessary for the normal growth of a person.
23. Adolescence is a stage of rapid growth
and development.
The diet for an adolescent has to be
carefully planned.
The diet must be the balanced diet.
Iron build blood and iron-rich food such
as leafy vegetables, jaggery, meat etc.
are good for adolescents.
24. Adolescence is a time when our bodies, our families, our
schools and the largest society demand that we change.
Teenage years can be an emotional assault for
concerned. Parents and their teenage offspring may
seem to be at each other throats. The special name for
this stormy time is adolescence.
26. Some Definitions
• Puberty
Physical characteristics that occur during
adolescence.
• Primary Sex Characteristics
The changes that mark the beginning of puberty for
girls and boys.
• Secondary Sex Characteristics
Other external changes that make adolescents look
like mature men and women
27. Teenagers
