The present study examined the mediating effects of ambivalent sexism (hostile and benevolent) in the relationship between sex role orientation (masculinity and femininity) and gender stereotypes (dominance and assertiveness) in college students.The variables were measured using the Bem Sex Role Inventory (BSRI), the Ambivalent Sexism Inventory (AS
Maternal-Fetal Interplay in Zika Virus Infection and Adverse Perinatal Outcomes
During pregnancy, the organization of complex tolerance mechanisms occurs to assure non-rejection of the semiallogeneic fetus.Pregnancy is a period of vulnerability to some viral infections, mainly during the first and second trimesters, that may cause congenital damage to the fetus.Recently, Zika virus (ZIKV) infection has gained great notoriety d
A single mutation in the 15S rRNA gene confers nonsense suppressor activity and interacts with mRF1 the release factor in yeast mitochondria
We have determined the nucleotide sequence of the mim3-1 mitochondrial ribosomal suppressor, acting on ochre mitochondrial mutations and one frameshift mutation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.The 15s rRNA suppressor gene contains a G633 to C transversion.Yeast mitochondrial G633 corresponds to G517 of the E.coli 15S rRNA, which is occupied by an invar
Mathematical Modeling of Vortex Interaction Using a Three-Layer Quasigeostrophic Model. Part 1: Point-Vortex Approach
The theory of point vortices is used to explain the interaction of a surface vortex with subsurface vortices in the framework of a three-layer quasigeostrophic model.Theory and numerical experiments are used to calculate the interaction between one surface and one subsurface vortex.Then, the configuration with one surface vortex and two subsurface
