In Nigeria, student’s performances in basic science in the public examinations have not been encouraging over the years. The conventional method of teaching employed by the teachers has been one of the salient factors contributing to the discouraging performance. Previous studies have examined different instructional methods in different subjects without paying much attention to the use of guided inquiry and expository lecture methods on student’s achievement in Basic science in Yakurr.

The purpose of this study was to investigate environmental effects on the performance of secondary schools in science subjects, a case study of some selected secondary schools in Akure Ondo State. The researcher is interested in this study because of the increase in low academic performance of students in science subjects in secondary schools at both internal and external examinations, such as NECO, WAEC, JSCE, NABTEC respectively. Based on these problems, the researcher raised five research questions and five null hypotheses to guide the study. There was literature review to cover; conceptual

Abstract:

Background: Sudden volcanic eruptions can lead to volcanic ash entering the eyes, causing severe discomfort and complicating evacuation efforts. The specific effects of volcanic ash on ocular tissues, especially when wearing soft contact lenses (SCLs), are not well documented, prompting this experimental investigation. Methods: White rabbits with normal eyes were randomly divided into three groups: (1) a bare eye group: bare eye + volcanic ash exposure + eye washing, (2) an SCL group: SCL-wearing eye + volcanic ash exposure + eye washing, and (3) a control group: eye washing only. In groups 1

Introduction. Oral candidiasis is a complication of dry mouth witch is not present in all cases, but its prevalence remains high. Material and method. 29 patients aged 45 to 82 years suffering from dry mouth caused by various general conditions were selected for this study. Clinical examinations were performed and all the lesions of oral mucosa were counted. The accurate diagnosis of oral candidiasis was established by the mycological exam. Results. 66% of patients involved in this study presented oral candidiasis confirmed by the laboratory. The atrophic and hyperplasic oral candidiasis were

Abstract:

The effectiveness of using a commercially available computerized study guide to improve performance on examinations in two general psychology courses was investigated. The experimental design required 37 students to use a computerized study guide on two examinations and not on two others, counterbalanced across two classes. Analysis suggested that use of the study guides was associated with an increase in examination scores. These commercially available computerized study guides may be effective because they use many empirically established general principles of learning.

Abstract:

We present a novel approach to perceiving facial impressions by defining the explicit features of the face (xFoFs) based on anthropometric studies. The xFoFs estimate 35 anthropometric features of human faces with normal expressions and frontalized poses. Using these xFoFs, we have developed a method to objectively measure facial impressions, compiling a dataset of approximately 4896 facial images to validate our method. The ranking of xFoFs among the face image dataset guides an objective and quantitative estimation of facial impressions. To further corroborate our study, we conducted two use

In response to the pressing need for effective implementation of the Circular Economy (CE), this research introduces a comprehensive theoretical framework for CE roadmapping. This study addresses the prevalent issue of fragmented and inconsistent CE strategies that often hinder the successful translation of long-term goals into achievable KPIs. Through a carefully designed methodology, this framework incorporates strategic management, systems thinking, sustainability science, and other disciplines, providing a structured approach to navigating the complexities of long-term planning for CE.

Abstract:

Commercial panels of microsatellite (STR) loci are intended for DNA analysis of the domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) and, therefore, when genotyping the Grey wolf (Canis lupus lupus), most markers reveal significant deviations from the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium and have a low informative value, which complicates their use in a forensic examination. The aim of this study was to select STR markers that equally effectively reflect population polymorphism in the wolf and the dog, and to create a universal panel for the identification of individuals in forensic science.

Abstract:

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is an androgen-related non-neoplastic enlargement of the prostate gland that commonly affects both reproductive capabilities and the general health of intact dogs. The subclinical form of BPH can be challenging to diagnose due to a lack of clinical signs, even if rectal palpation is performed. Left untreated, this condition poses risks to the dogs’ health and breeding status. This study, involving 65 male dogs, aimed to investigate subclinical BPH through rectal palpation, ultrasonography, and analysis of canine prostatic-specific esterase (CPSE). Of the part

The objectives of the present study were to: (1) clone horses using adult cumulus cells; and (2) determine whether the cumulus cell donor affected the outcome. In vivo-matured cumulus–oocyte complexes were obtained using transvaginal ultrasound-guided follicle aspiration; oocytes were used as cytoplasts, whereas cumulus cells (from one of three different mares) were used as donor cells. Immediately following nuclear transfer and activation procedures, cloned embryos were transferred surgically to the oviduct of recipient mares (n = 2–5 embryos per recipient) that had ovulated within 24 h prior
