Analysis Of Opening Scene (Rock N Rolla)
The opening film techniques of Rock N Rolla establish the gritty criminal tone. Through dirty prison-like titles, shaky camera movements that draw the viewer in, and medium shots that show characters' identities, the film suggests this story will involve petty criminals willing to get their hands dirty. Dark, grey colors, prison-like settings, and characters in muscle shirts cut off from society further position the characters as criminals living a seemingly laid back but potentially violent lifestyle.

Romanticism focuses on emotions, the soul, and rebellion against social norms rather than love. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein reflects this movement. The creation of Victor Frankenstein's monster symbolizes Shelley's own life experiences of losing her mother at a young age and being thrust into an unaccepting world. Raw emotions convey Romanticism, like Victor's fascination with life's secrets and quest for godlike power. Nature also influences emotions in the story, such as storms complementing feelings of wrath. Dramatic events include Victor bringing the eight-foot tall monster to life and having a nightmare where the monster kills Elizabeth.
Natural sciences 2012 13
The natural sciences involve studying objects and processes observable in nature, such as biology and physics. The scientific method involves making observations, developing hypotheses, making predictions based on hypotheses, and experimentally testing predictions. A key part of the scientific method is that hypotheses can be proven false through experimentation. While scientific knowledge cannot be absolutely proven true, theories that withstand challenges are considered valid within their domain. The development of science involves imagination to develop theories to explain observations. Scientific progress values expanding knowledge, though some argue there should be regulation of controversial areas.

Mathematics power point 2012 13
Mathematics is the study of patterns and relationships between numbers and shapes. While empirical evidence may be gathered, mathematical knowledge requires rigorous deductive proof based on agreed upon axioms and theorems. However, Gödel's incompleteness theorem showed that the axiomatic foundations of mathematics cannot be proven with absolute certainty from within the system. There is an ongoing debate around whether mathematical truths are discovered or invented by humans. Overall, mathematics relies on both deductive and empirical reasoning but cannot claim absolute certainty due its axiomatic foundations.

1. The human sciences seek to understand human behavior, culture, and society, which can provide insights into some of the most important and complex issues we face. Understanding topics like racism, politics, economics, and development through the frameworks of different philosophical approaches can help address real-world problems.
2. The human sciences employ diverse qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate issues from different perspectives. While findings may differ, considering multiple viewpoints can lead to richer and more comprehensive understandings than any one approach alone.
3. Studying human sciences cultivates empathy, recognition of biases, and awareness of different lived experiences. This supports goals like
