My body.

El cuerpo humano es una máquina muy complicada que requiere de alimentos y oxígeno para funcionar. Las diminutas piezas que lo integran, llamadas células, son las que constituyen la piel, los huesos, los músculos y los diferentes órganos, los cuales trabajan juntos para que podamos realizar todas nuestras actividades diarias: comer, dormir, respirar, correr, reír, llorar.

Body poems. 'Poemas corporales'.

Esta selección de poesía se ha elegido para que coincida con temas de interés para el grupo de edad: el cuerpo. Aunque los poemas son completamente independientes de otras historias, pueden ser introducidos junto con libros de cuentos. Destinado a escuelas infantiles, puede utilizarse para el trabajo curricular transversal, así como para la enseñanza de la lectura y el disfrute de la poesía, ritmo y rima. Desarrolla en los niños habilidades fonológicas y el conocimiento de la rima y los introduce en la poesía desde las primeras etapas de la lectura. Ofrece orientación para hablar y escuchar, con especial atención a la lectura en voz alta.

A body dictionary.

Desde la A a la Z se presenta el cuerpo humano en esta obra de referencia indicada para los más pequeños. Cada letra tiene una entrada, a veces dos. Hay un glosario.

My body, with over 50 reusable stickers.

Con un texto sencillo, los niños de preescolar aprenden a conocer e identificar las distintas partes de su cuerpo. También realizan ejercicios y actividades cotidianas que les permiten conocer para que sirven los órganos del cuerpo. Las pegatinas reutilizables les ayudan a repetir estas acciones cómo si fueran juegos y mejorar en el aprendizaje.

The human body book.

En esta guía de anatomía se pone de manifiesto la complejidad del cuerpo humano. Capa por capa, cada sistema es detallado y explicado, desde cómo funciona el sistema nervioso, la construcción de músculos y esqueleto, la piel, el cabello y las uñas y cómo se protege el cuerpo cuando está en peligro. Utilizando el DVD interactivo se pueden hacer primeros planos sobre una parte del cuerpo y ver la formación de los órganos, la acción de un nervio, la circulación de la sangre a través de una arteria, explorar las causas y los síntomas de las enfermedades y dolencias. Tiene glosario e índice alfabético.

Counterpoise-corrected geometries and harmonic frequencies of N-body clusters: application to (HF)n (n=3,4)

A study was conducted on the methods of basis set superposition error (BSSE)-free geometry optimization and frequency calculations in clusters larger than a dimer. In particular, three different counterpoise schemes were critically examined. It was shown that the counterpoise-corrected supermolecule energy can be easily obtained in all the cases by using the many-body partitioning of energy

Families of periodic horseshoe orbits in the restricted three-body problem

We compute families of symmetric periodic horseshoe orbits in the restricted three-body problem. Both the planar and three-dimensional cases are considered and several families are found.We describe how these families are organized as well as the behavior along and among the families of parameters such as the Jacobi constant or the eccentricity. We also determine the stability properties of individual orbits along the families. Interestingly, we find stable horseshoe-shaped orbit up to the quite high inclination of 17◦

Ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (oVEMP) using air conducted sound: Effect of body position on threshold

The primary objective of this research study is to determine if various body positions for ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) testing demonstrate differentiation of the saccule and utricle through threshold responses.

The Influence of Body Condition on the Stopover Ecology of Least Sandpipers in the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley during Fall Migration

Many shorebirds are long-distance migrants and depend on the energy gained at stopover sites to complete migration. Competing hypotheses have described strategies used by migrating birds; the energy-selection hypothesis predicts that shorebirds attempt to maximize energy gained at stopover sites, whereas the time-selection hypothesis predicts that shorebirds attempt to minimize time spent at stopover sites. The energy- and time-selection hypotheses both predict that birds in better condition will depart sites sooner. However, numerous studies of stopover duration have found little support for this prediction, leading to the suggestion that migrating birds operate under energy and time constraints for only a small portion of the migratory season. During fall migration 2002, we tested the prediction that birds in better condition depart stopover sites sooner by examining the relationship between stopover duration and body condition for migrating Least Sandpipers (Calidris minutilla) at three stopover sites in the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley. We also tested the assumption made by the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley Migratory Bird Science Team that shorebirds stay in the Mississippi Valley for 10 d. The assumption of 10 d was used to estimate the amount of habitat required by shorebirds in the Mississippi Valley during fall migration; a period longer than 10 d would increase the estimate of the amount habitat required. We used multiple-day constancy models of apparent survival and program MARK to estimate stopover duration for 293 individually color-marked and resighted Least Sandpipers. We found that a four-day constancy interval and a site x quadratic time trend interaction term best modeled apparent survival. We found only weak support for body condition as a factor explaining length of stopover duration, which is consistent with findings from similar work. Stopover duration estimates were 4.1 d (95% CI = 2.8–6.1) for adult Least Sandpipers at Bald Knob National Wildlife Refuge, Arkansas, 6.5 d (95% CI = 4.9–8.7) for adult and 6.1 d (95% CI =4.2–9.1) for juvenile Least Sandpipers at Yazoo National Wildlife Refuge, Mississippi, and 6.9 d (95% CI = 5.5–8.7) for juvenile Least Sandpipers at Morgan Brake National Wildlife Refuge, Mississippi. Based on our estimates of stopover duration and the assumption made by the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley Migratory Bird Science Team, there is sufficient habitat in the lower Mississippi Valley to support shorebirds during fall migration.
