Input: who gave sociology its name and promoted the scientific study of society

Sociology

The word sociology ( or `` sociologie '' ) is derived from both Latin and Greek origins . The Latin word : socius , `` companion '' ; the suffix - logy , `` the study of '' from Greek - λογία from λόγος , lógos , `` word '' , `` knowledge '' . It was first coined in 1780 by the French essayist Emmanuel - Joseph Sieyès ( 1748 -- 1836 ) in an unpublished manuscript . Sociology was later defined independently by the French philosopher of science , Auguste Comte ( 1798 -- 1857 ) , in 1838 . Comte used this term to describe a new way of looking at society . Comte had earlier used the term `` social physics '' , but that had subsequently been appropriated by others , most notably the Belgian statistician Adolphe Quetelet . Comte endeavoured to unify history , psychology and economics through the scientific understanding of the social realm . Writing shortly after the malaise of the French Revolution , he proposed that social ills could be remedied through sociological positivism , an epistemological approach outlined in The Course in Positive Philosophy ( 1830 -- 1842 ) and A General View of Positivism ( 1848 ) . Comte believed a positivist stage would mark the final era , after conjectural theological and metaphysical phases , in the progression of human understanding . In observing the circular dependence of theory and observation in science , and having classified the sciences , Comte may be regarded as the first philosopher of science in the modern sense of the term .

Input: where is acetylcholine released in the sympathetic nervous system

Acetylcholine

At a schematic level , the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are both organized in essentially the same way : preganglionic neurons in the central nervous system send projections to neurons located in autonomic ganglia ; these neurons then send output projections to virtually every tissue of the body . In both branches the internal connections -- the projections from the central nervous system to the autonomic ganglia -- use acetylcholine as neurotransmitter , and the receptors it activates are of the nicotinic type . In the parasympathetic nervous system the output connections -- the projections from ganglion neurons to tissues that do n't belong to the nervous system -- also release acetylcholine , acting on muscarinic receptors . In the sympathetic nervous system the output connections mainly release noradrenaline , although acetylcholine is released at a few points , such as the sudomotor innervation of the sweat glands .

Input: where did the name pittsburgh pirates come from

History of the Pittsburgh Pirates

The new owners also signed highly regarded second baseman Lou Bierbauer , who had previously played with the AA 's Philadelphia Athletics . The Athletics failed to include him on their reserve list , and the Alleghenys picked him up . Nonetheless , this led to loud protests by the Athletics , and in an official complaint , an AA official claimed the Alleghenys ' actions were `` piratical '' . This incident ( which is discussed at some length in The Beer and Whisky League , by David Nemec , 1994 ) quickly accelerated into a schism between the leagues that contributed to the demise of the A.A. Although the Alleghenys were never found guilty of wrongdoing , they made sport of being denounced for being `` piratical '' by renaming themselves `` the Pirates '' for the 1891 season . The nickname was first acknowledged on the team 's uniforms in 1912 . Around the time the team adopted the Pirates nickname , the United States Board on Geographic Names forced the city of Pittsburgh to undergo a controversial name change by having them drop the `` h '' at the end of the name , making the team 's official name the `` Pittsburg Pirates '' from the adoption of the Pirates nickname until Pittsburgh was able to get the `` h '' restored to its name in 1911 .

Answer: The Athletics failed to include Lou Bierbauer on their reserve list, and the Alleghenys picked him up. Although the Alleghenys were never found guilty of wrongdoing, they made sport of being denounced for being ``piratical'' by renaming themselves ``the Pirates'' for the 1891 season.

Input: what was the cause of the whiskey rebellion

Whiskey Rebellion

The Whiskey Rebellion ( also known as the Whiskey Insurrection ) was a tax protest in the United States beginning in 1791 during the presidency of George Washington . The so - called `` whiskey tax '' was the first tax imposed on a domestic product by the newly formed federal government . It became law in 1791 , and was intended to generate revenue for the war debt incurred during the Revolutionary War . The tax applied to all distilled spirits , but American whiskey was by far the country 's most popular distilled beverage in the 18th century , so the excise became widely known as a `` whiskey tax '' . Farmers of the western frontier were accustomed to distilling their surplus rye , barley , wheat , corn , or fermented grain mixtures into whiskey . These farmers resisted the tax . In these regions , whiskey often served as a medium of exchange . Many of the resisters were war veterans who believed that they were fighting for the principles of the American Revolution , in particular against taxation without local representation , while the federal government maintained that the taxes were the legal expression of Congressional taxation powers .

Input: what was the importance of the hajj (pilgrimage) to mecca

Hajj

Apart from being an obligatory religious duty , the Hajj is seen to have a spiritual merit that provides the Muslims with an opportunity of self - renewal . Hajj serves as a reminder of the Day of Judgment when Muslims believe people will stand before God . Hadith literature ( sayings of Muhammad ) articulates various merits a pilgrim achieves upon successful completion of their Hajj . After successful pilgrimage , pilgrims can prefix their names with the title ' Al - Hajji ' , and are held with respect in Muslim society . However , Islamic scholars suggest Hajj should signify a Muslim 's religious commitment , and should not be a measurement of their social status . Hajj brings together and unites the Muslims from different parts of the world irrespective of their race , colour , and culture , which acts as a symbol of equality .

Input: what is the difference between somatic cells and germ cells

Germ cell

Multicellular eukaryotes are made of two fundamental cell types . Germ cells produce gametes and are the only cells that can undergo meiosis as well as mitosis . These cells are sometimes said to be immortal because they are the link between generations . Somatic cells are all the other cells that form the building blocks of the body and they only divide by mitosis . The lineage of germ cells is called germ line . Germ cell specification begins during cleavage in many animals or in the epiblast during gastrulation in birds and mammals . After transport , involving passive movements and active migration , germ cells arrive at the developing gonads . In humans , sexual differentiation starts approximately 6 weeks after conception . The end - products of the germ cell cycle are the egg or sperm .

Answer: Germ cells produce gametes and are the only cells that can undergo meiosis as well as mitosis . The lineage of germ cells is called germ line as well. Somatic cells are all the other cells that form the building blocks of the body and they only divide by mitosis .

Input: who was the race car driver who lost both of his legs

Alex Zanardi

In his most competitive race of 2001 , the 2001 American Memorial , he suffered a violent accident at the EuroSpeedway Lausitz on 15 September . Zanardi started from the back of the grid and was gaining ground on his rivals . The crash occurred while Zanardi was leading the race in the closing laps . After a late pit stop , Zanardi was attempting to merge back onto the track when he accelerated abruptly and spun into the path of Patrick Carpentier . Carpentier was able to avoid him , but Alex Tagliani , who was just behind Carpentier at the time , could not and Zanardi 's car was impacted from the side , behind the front wheel , severing the nose of the car .

Input: what is the significance of the mariner shooting the albatross

Albatross (metaphor)

It is an allusion to Samuel Taylor Coleridge 's poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner ( 1798 ) . In the poem , an albatross starts to follow a ship -- being followed by an albatross was generally considered a sign of good luck . However , the titular mariner shoots the albatross with a crossbow , which is regarded as an act that will curse the ship ( which indeed suffers terrible mishaps ) . Even when they are too thirsty to speak , the ship 's crew let the mariner know through their glances that they blame his action for the curse . The albatross is then literally hung around the mariner 's neck by the crew to symbolize his guilt in killing the bird . Thus , the albatross can be both an omen of good or bad luck , as well as a metaphor for a burden to be carried as penance .

Answer: It is regarded as an act that will curse the ship.  The albatross is then literally hung around the mariner's neck by the crew to symbolize his guilt.

Input: what is the genetic mutation of huntington's disease

Huntington's disease

HD is typically inherited from a person 's parents , although up to 10 % of cases are due to a new mutation . The disease is caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in either of an individual 's two copies of a gene called Huntingtin . This means a child of an affected person typically has a 50 % chance of inheriting the disease . The Huntingtin gene provides the genetic information for a protein that is also called `` huntingtin '' . Expansion of CAG ( cytosine - adenine - guanine ) triplet repeats in the gene coding for the Huntingtin protein results in an abnormal protein , which gradually damages cells in the brain , through mechanisms that are not fully understood . Diagnosis is by genetic testing , which can be carried out at any time , regardless of whether or not symptoms are present . This fact raises several ethical debates : the age at which an individual is considered mature enough to choose testing ; whether parents have the right to have their children tested ; and managing confidentiality and disclosure of test results .

Answer: The disease is caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in either of an individual's two copies of a gene called Huntingtin.  The Huntingtin gene provides the genetic information for a protein that is also called `` huntingtin ''.  Expansion of CAG (cytosine - adenine - guanine) triplet repeats in the gene coding for the Huntingtin protein results in an abnormal protein, which gradually damages cells in the brain, through mechanisms that are not fully understood.

Input: when was the first hot dog eating contest

Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest

The Nathan 's Hot Dog Eating Contest has been held at the original location on Coney Island most years since about 1972 , usually in conjunction with Independence Day . Nathan 's promoter Mortimer Matz claimed that on July 4 , 1916 , four immigrants held a hot dog eating contest at Nathan 's Famous stand on Coney Island to settle an argument about who was the most patriotic . He also made the spurious claim that the contest has been held each year since then except 1941 ( `` as a protest to the war in Europe '' ) and 1971 ( as a protest to political unrest in the U.S. ) . A man by the name of Jim Mullen is said to have won the first contest , although accounts vary . One account describes Jimmy Durante ( who was not an immigrant ) as competing in that all - immigrant inaugural contest , which was judged by Eddie Cantor and Sophie Tucker . Another describes the event as beginning `` in 1917 , and pitted Mae West 's father , Jack , against entertainer Eddie Cantor . '' In 2010 , however , promoter Mortimer `` Morty '' Matz admitted to having fabricated the legend of the 1916 start date with a man named Max Rosey in the early 1970s as part of a publicity stunt . The legend grew over the years , to the point where The New York Times and other publications were known to have repeatedly listed 1916 as the inaugural year , although no evidence of the contest exists . As Coney Island is often linked with recreational activities of the summer season , several early contests were held on other holidays associated with summer besides Independence Day ; Memorial Day contests were scheduled for 1972 , 1975 , and 1978 , and a second 1972 event was held on Labor Day .

Input: who does the voice of the gecko in the geico commercials

GEICO advertising campaigns

The company 's ads sometimes focus on its reptilian mascot , the Gecko , an anthropomorphic Day Gecko created by The Martin Agency , modified in 2005 to a CGI character by Animation Director David Hulin and his team at Framestore . The gecko first appeared in 1999 , during the Screen Actors Guild strike that prevented the use of live actors . The original commercial features the Gecko , voiced by Kelsey Grammer , who climbs onto a microphone on a podium and utters `` This is my final plea : I am a gecko , not to be confused with GEICO , which could save you hundreds on car insurance . So , STOP CALLING ME ! '' , before licking his eye . Later `` wrong number '' ads used Dave Kelly as the voice of the gecko . In the subsequent commercials with Jake Wood ( which portray him as a representative of the company ) , the gecko speaks with a British Cockney accent because it would be unexpected , according to Martin Agency 's Steve Bassett . In 2010s commercials , the gecko 's accent is more working - class , perhaps in an effort to further `` humanize '' him .

Answer: The original commercial featured the Gecko voiced by Kelsey Grammer, later `` wrong number '' ads used Dave Kelly as the voice of the gecko.

Soviet Union in World War II

Stalin directed the Red Army to move rapidly in a broad front into Germany because he did not believe the Western Allies would hand over territory they occupied , while he made the overriding objective capturing Berlin . After successfully capturing Eastern Prussia , three Red Army fronts converged on the heart of Eastern Germany , with one of the last pitched battles of the war putting the Soviets at the virtual gates of Berlin . By April 24 , Berlin was encircled by elements of two Soviet fronts , one of which had begun a massive shelling of the city on April 20 that would not end until the city 's surrender . On 30 April , Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide , after which Soviet forces found their remains , which had been burned at Hitler 's directive . German forces surrendered a few days later .

Input: where does the energy needed to produce atp come from

Cellular respiration

Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate ( ATP ) , and then release waste products . The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions , which break large molecules into smaller ones , releasing energy in the process , as weak so - called `` high - energy '' bonds are replaced by stronger bonds in the products . Respiration is one of the key ways a cell releases chemical energy to fuel cellular activity . Cellular respiration is considered an exothermic redox reaction which releases heat . The overall reaction occurs in a series of biochemical steps , most of which are redox reactions themselves . Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion reaction , it clearly does not resemble one when it occurs in a living cell because of the slow release of energy from the series of reactions .

Input: who invented the telescope during the scientific revolution

History of the telescope

The earliest known telescope appeared in 1608 in the Netherlands when an eyeglass maker named Hans Lippershey tried to obtain a patent on one . Although Lippershey did not receive his patent , news of the new invention soon spread across Europe . The design of these early refracting telescopes consisted of a convex objective lens and a concave eyepiece . Galileo improved on this design the following year and applied it to astronomy . In 1611 , Johannes Kepler described how a far more useful telescope could be made with a convex objective lens and a convex eyepiece lens and by 1655 astronomers such as Christiaan Huygens were building powerful but unwieldy Keplerian telescopes with compound eyepieces .

Input: what does a duck billed platypus look like

Platypus

The body and the broad , flat tail of the platypus are covered with dense , brown fur that traps a layer of insulating air to keep the animal warm . The fur is waterproof , and the texture is akin to that of a mole . The platypus uses its tail for storage of fat reserves ( an adaptation also found in animals such as the Tasmanian devil ) . It has webbed feet and a large , rubbery duck - like snout . The webbing is more significant on the front feet and is folded back when walking on land . Unlike a bird 's beak ( in which the upper and lower parts separate to reveal the mouth ) , the snout of the platypus is a sensory organ with the mouth on the underside . The nostrils are located on the dorsal surface of the snout , while the eyes and ears are located in a groove set just back from it ; this groove is closed when swimming . Platypuses have been heard to emit a low growl when disturbed and a range of other vocalisations have been reported in captive specimens . A

A Series of Unfortunate Events

The books seem to be set in an alternate , `` timeless '' world with stylistic similarities to both the 19th century and the 1930s , though with contemporary , and seemingly anachronistic scientific knowledge . For instance , in The Hostile Hospital , the Baudelaire children send a message via Morse code on a telegraph , yet in the general store they are in , there is fiber - optic cable for sale . An `` advanced computer '' appears in The Austere Academy ; this computer 's exact functions are never stated , as its only use in the book is to show a picture of Count Olaf . In a companion book to the series , The Unauthorized Autobiography , the computer is said to be capable of advanced forgery . The setting of the world has been compared to Edward Scissorhands in that it is `` suburban gothic '' . Although the film version sets the Baudelaires ' mansion in the city of Boston , Massachusetts , real places rarely appear in the books , although some are mentioned . For example , in The Ersatz Elevator , a book in Jerome and Esmé Squalor 's library was titled Trout , In France They 're Out ; there are also references to the fictional nobility of North American regions , specifically the Duchess of Winnipeg and the King of Arizona , perhaps allusions to the setting of Kurt Vonnegut 's novel Slapstick , which features similar North American fictional nobility . Interestingly , Vonnegut 's novel focuses on artificial family as the cure for loneliness and strife , which seems to also be the aim of the `` artificial family '' of V.F.D.

Input: what were the results of war of 1812

Results of the War of 1812

Results of the War of 1812 between Great Britain and the United States , 1812 - 1815 , involved with no geographical changes . The main result of the war was two centuries of peace between the United States and Britain . All the causes of the war had disappeared with the end of the war between Britain and France and with the destruction of the power of Indians to block American expansion into the Northwest . American fears of the Native Americans ended , as did British plans to create a buffer Native American state . The American quest for honor after its humiliations by the British were satisfied . The final collapse of the opposition Federalist Party opened an `` Era of good feelings '' with lessened partisanship and an exuberant spirit . The British paid little attention to the war , concentrating instead on their final defeat of Napoleon in 1815 . The U.S. failed to gain any territory from British North America , contrary to many American politicians ' hopes and expectations , but it did gain land from Spain .

Input: influence of roman catholic church on music in middle ages

Medieval music

Around AD 1011 , the Roman Catholic Church wanted to standardize the Mass and chant across its empire . At this time , Rome was the religious centre of western Europe , and Paris was the political centre . The standardization effort consisted mainly of combining these two ( Roman and Gallican ) regional liturgies . Pope Gregory I and Charlemagne sent trained singers throughout the Holy Roman Empire to teach this new form of chant . This body of chant became known as Gregorian Chant , named after Pope Gregory I. By the 12th and 13th centuries , Gregorian chant had superseded all the other Western chant traditions , with the exception of the Ambrosian chant in Milan and the Mozarabic chant in a few specially designated Spanish chapels . Hildegard von Bingen ( 1098 -- 1179 ) was the earliest known female composer . She wrote many monophonic works for the Catholic Church , almost all of them for female voices .
