This document describes a study examining exfoliative vaginal cytology in West African dwarf goats during their estrous cycle. Vaginal smears were collected from cycling and non-cycling goats at various intervals over 60 days. In cycling goats, superficial cells associated with proestrus, estrus and early metestrus were more frequent. Intermediate cells dominated smears from non-cycling goats, indicating anoestrus. Leucocytes and epithelial cells were present throughout the cycle in both groups. Cell counts peaked on days 1-2 after estrus then declined. The study aims to determine if vaginal cytology can assess reproductive status in West African dwarf goats.

Whitcomb Judson, born in 1844 in Illinois, invented the zipper in the late 1880s as a replacement for shoelaces on boots. His initial zipper design was improved by a Swedish engineer in the early 1900s, making it more streamlined and reliable. The zipper then became widely successful and is now commonly used on items like bags, clothes, shoes, and more.

1. GRE®
Šta je GRE®?
GRE® (Graduate Records Examination) je standardizovani ispit koji je neophodan za upis na
postdiplomske studije na većini američkih univerziteta, a naročito kada je reč o poznatim visokoškolskim
ustanovama. Na opštem ispitu se ocenjuju analitičko pisanje, jezičke i matematičke sposobnosti stečene
tokom dugog vremenskog razdoblja i koje nisu usko povezane sa samo jednom oblasti studija. Nova
verzija testa od 1. avgusta 2011. godine bliže oslikava način razmišljanja koji je postdiplomcima potreban
u daljem školovanju i prikazuje koliko su kandidati spremni za nivo aktivnosti potreban za postdiplomske
studije.
Šta sačinjava GRE®?
Test se sastoji od tri sekcije – verbalne, matematičke i analitičkog pisanja.
Verbalna sekcija meri mogućnost kandidata da analiziraju i izvlače zaključke iz tekstova, zaključuju na
osnovu nekompletnih informacija, identifikuju poruke autora tekstova i namere, naprave razliku izmeñu
više nivoa značenja, izaberu važne činjenice, razumeju strukturu teksta i mogu da ga prepričaju, kao i da
razumeju značenje reči i odnose izmeñu njih.
Matematička sekcija meri sposobnost kandidata da razumeju numeričke informacije, rešavaju probleme
koristeći matematičke modele, analiziraju ponuñene informacije, primene osnovne matematičke
sposobnosti i koncepte algebre, geometrije, statistike i verovatnoće.
Analitičko pisanje služi za procenu koliko kandidati mogu da izraze kompleksne ideje jasno i efektno,
obrazlože ideje kroz primenu relevantnih razloga i primera, ispitaju tvrdnje i priložene dokaze, podrže
fokusiranu i logičnu diskusiju uz primenu elemenata standardnog pisanog engleskog jezika.
Kako izgleda GRE®?
Kompjuterska verzija testa traje oko tri sata i 45 minuta. U okviru ove verzije postoji šest sekcija i jedan
odmor od deset minuta nakon treće sekcije.

2. Pisanje je uvek prva sekcija, dok ostale sekcije mogu da se pojave u bilo kojem redosledu.
Novi dizajn testa uključuje mogućnost da se u okviru sekcije krećete izmeñu pitanja, označavate
ih za kasniji pregled, kao i da se koristi digitron na kompjuteru.

Papirna verzija testa traje oko tri sata i trideset minuta. U okviru testa postoji šest sekcija sa pauzom
posle druge sekcije.

Test Broj pitanja Vreme

(Dve sekcije)
Matematički deo Oko 25 pitanja po sekciji 40 minuta po sekciji
(Dve sekcije)
Pisanje je uvek na početku, dok se ostale sekcije mogu pojaviti u bilo kojem rasporedu.
Tokom svake sekcije možete se slobodno kretati kroz pitanja, a test sadrži ekvivalentna pitanja novim
verzijama zadataka, meñu kojima su završavanje tekstova i unos brojeva. Odgovori se unose u knjigu sa
zadacima, a tokom testa obezbeñen je digitron.
Koliko košta GRE®?
Tokom promotivnog perioda primene nove verzije, test će van SAD koštati 95 američkih dolara.
Promotivni period traje do 30. septembra 2011.
