A stem cell is a cell that hasn’t yet become specialised and can be found in embryos or bone marrow. These cells can be used to treat certain conditions but the use of these cells is very controversial

Embryonic stem cells come from embryo which is controversial because it basically kills humans in the making.

Microscope are useful when finding out the mutation the lichen take to adapt to different environment. Microscopes are vital when looking at cells as the organals the cell contain can’t be seen by thew naked eye. A light microscope project a visible light usually onto a small organism, which will allow you to get a good visual look.

Magnification is the ability to make small objects seem larger, such as making a microscopic organism visible. Resolution is the ability to distinguish two objects from each other. Light microscopy has limits to both its resolution and its magnification

While a light microscope uses light to illuminate specimens and glass lenses to magnify images, an electron microscope uses a beam of electrons to illuminate organism and magnetic lenses to magnify images. The resolution is the main difference between these two microscopes.

Texting and speaking in general are like two different languages. Speaking is more formal than texting. While texting or communicating on social media, we use a completely new dialect that involves devices such as slang and emoji’s . The younger generation are now using this language in real life conversations and new words are added to the language which quickly spread to all the youth over the country due to social media and its affect on this generation. Formal speaking is something that you switch too in certain occasions, like if you were talking to your parent or if you had an interview. This is the dialect that is used when it comes to important thing such as jobs and meetings. What we need to understand is that it is essential to know how to speak formally. We don’t need teach them slang because it is something generation after generation will pick as the get older. So the relationship between both online texting and spoken formal language is that you won’t survive socially or financially without knowing how to communicate with two totally opposite types of situations and people.

Nearly everyone that texts people has an idiolect , which is an overused word to fill in blank spaces when you are thinking of an answer. The words that that commonly used as somebody idiolect are words such as ‘like’ and ‘um’. Short word that just get repeated to take away the silence while you think of a reply. Everyone has a idiolect but you rarely notice as it is triggered by the silence and your brain reacts and repeats a certain word over and over again until you are confident in knowing what you are going to say.

In a text conversation of my own I noticed that we didn’t greet each other with the use of ‘hello’ or ‘hi’. We just asked the question and waited for the response. The answer given didn’t end the conversation it sprang a new topic of the the conversation. With my conversations it either end with ‘kl’ (cool).

Texting can introduce new vocabulary to someone. I’ve have witnessed the use of language due to the overall words the me and other people use. For example I know some that is from Weymouth and had never heard of the words such as ‘beg’ which seemed weird to me at first because it a world I hear all the time, because he hears me use it in different contexts it has got to the stage he is capable of using the word in the right context. So me speaking and using a word that was never said where he is from to were he can saying knowing what it means when he says it in a conversation.

one of the characters are very straight forward and talk with authority. The other characters was confident and became less throughout the scene

” 10 seconds left! The Lakers are behind by 1 and Kobe bringing up the ball he flies pass Curry with ease. With 5 seconds to go Kobe dribbles to his zone. 3…2…1… Kobe shoot! What this? From abosolutley no where…

Well It like it all over for the golden state and it looks like it is all over for Ian Clark”

This is all how it started for me. What happen after u may ask well I’m glad to tell you.

Laying down on the cold floor. The dangling leg as it was separated from the rest of my leg. Every time I catc a glimpse of the ridged bone that pierced through the flesh it makes it harder to control the pain. As I try to take my mind of the pain the slow drip of blood that ran down my angle, absorbed by my ( what were white socks). The gasps and shuffling of my surroundings as all the crowd.

5 minutes of agonising pain had pass by. Darkness started to roam across my eyes until….

There I am lying on a bed in hospital with doctors around me. One had a scalpel another was handling the air machine. And that all I saw for the short 10 seconds I was conscious.

Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar and Shelley’s Ozymandias are very alike in terms of language and the way they play with foreshadowing . Both writers manipulate some word meanings and how they are placed in a sentences, to affect the overall meaning for the sentence.

Shelley’s poem is written as a sonnet which is usually based around love. But in this instance, Ozymandias is a poem that shows a sort of bad karma to a character who ruled over everyone but was left with nothing to show for his achievement. Julius Caesar on the other hand is a long script that has a lot of symbolism and language skill such as personification and metaphor. Ozymandias has 14 lines but involves lots of language techniques, where as Julius Caesar has 104 pages and also involves the same language as Ozymandias and  more.

Fate is an ending to a path that someone would follow without knowing. A way I would describe fate is as a unmovable force that sits at the end of every path in life you take with only one path to go through.

Fate in Julius Caesar happens to many people such as Cassius or Caesar. These characters fate is shown by different events. Caesar’s event that showed his fate was when the soothsayer appeared in act 1 scene 2 where Caesar is walking in public with Casca, Calpurnia, Anthony and Brutus. The soothsayer from a crowd of people says ‘Beware the ides of March ‘ this just means beware the 15th of March. Caesar didn’t believe the soothsayer and thought it was a joke. Cassius wasn’t a likeable characters. Cassius’s role in the play was to be a mischievous, persuasive person who could over run the best of people with only his words.  This was Cassius’s fate as Shakespeare used Cassius’s personility to create his fate which  was to cause the civil war. His key role in the play was the power and control over Brutus, even though Brutus didn’t see Cassius’s full intension until act 4 scene 3 where a civil war had erupted and Brutus understoods that it was not going to help Rome if there’s a war. So what happened was Cassius came round to Brutus were Brutus had an argument with Cassius. Even though Brutus had told Cassius everything he needed too .Cassius still tries to manipulate him by saying ‘ There is my dagger and here is my naked breast: within, a heart’ Cassius knew Brutus would never stab him but Cassius’s attitude seemed so convincing and so confident that it would bring out Brutus friendly part of him. Also Brutus being a hero of Rome he wouldn’t never kill Cassius for no reason or over a disagreement. So Cassius’s personility fell into place with Brutus’s personality, as Cassius is manipulative where as Brutus is fickle.

Caesar and Ozymandias are two very similar character who were both linked to being a bad leader. Their fates were technically the same as they were both leader who were taken off their pedestal and are left with only a few things to represent their reign. For Ozymandias it was the pillars and his sculpture which symbolised his power that slowly got buried over by the land. Where as Caesar’s body was left to also show how power can be taken down. I feel Shakespeare used Brutus as an explanation for what happens when fate attacks. The explanation for fate in Ozymandias is the storyteller.

Brutus and the storyteller both are involved in the explanation of the fates of Caesar and Ozymandias. Brutus at Caesar’s funeral explain how an ambitious person should be taken down from the chain of power. Brutus’s speech also relates to Ozymandias as his ambition was to be a ‘king of Kings’ but his fate took him out from chain of power. Leaving him with only his image. The storyteller description of Ozymandias was how people thought of Caesar. The storyteller describes him as a tyrant and a self centred person which is how people could interpret Caesar personality.

Techniques of fate show that time was used to show that it happened over a long period of time. In Ozymandias words and sentences can show that it happen over many years. And the soothsayer was the character that showed when fate had been noticed and were it would end for Caesar.

Time is a key figure to notice fate. Time shows how certain things happen that lead to fate. Even though it not said but hints and interpretation of character lead toward the fate of the characters. This process happens over time whether it is in 14 lines or 104 pages of text.

The soothsayer appeared at what we could say was the ending part of Caesar’s fate. Everything that happened after the appearance of the soothsayer was the final pieces of the jigsaw puzzle better known as Caesar’s destiny. Decius Brutus manipulates Caesar’s hubris.This happened when conspirators had lured Caesar to his death besides the bad omens Calpurnia had. All of these events had happened for a reason and all had a part in Ceasar’s fate. Calpurnia’s omens had convinced Caesar not to go to the Capitol but Decicus Brutus’s manipulates Caesar and his status and the status of his wife. He didn’t take his wife’s advice because of the status women had back in those days.

In Ozymandias the first line show us time as the first person we meet is a storyteller, which obviously indicates that he tells stories that would of happened some time ago. The story he told was about a king called Ozymandias. The story described Ozymandias in every way that would symbolise a tyrant. The entire poem is based around fate and bad karma. Fate is shown in the poem when it said that a sculpture of Ozymandias was made to portray the way the people felt about him. The expression that were sculpted on the visage was a cold look. By ‘cold look’ it means that he had a nasty smirk on his face. This shows that he was a unliked person who got all his kingdom by force not leadership. Ruling by force only lead to Ozymandias’s fate which was the destruction of his kingdom.

These are the technique that Shelley and Shakespeare use to incorporate fate into their poem or scripts. Fate leaves a mysterious trail throughout the book or it can symbolise something that can have a overall meaning to it like bad karma or respecting people around you.
