Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur kan nattaktiva insekter se i mörker med fel sorts ögon? Majoriteten av alla dagaktiva insekter har en sorts facettöga som kallas appositionsöga. Appositionsögon är anpassade till ett liv med god tillgång på ljus ? nattaktiva djur har därför i princip alltid andra sorters ögon (superpositionsögon). Anledningen till att appositionsögon fungerar bäst på dagen är att dDue to our own preference for bright light, we tend to forget that many insects are active in very dim light. The reasons for nocturnal activity are most easily seen in tropical areas of the world, where animals face severe competition for food and nocturnal insects are able to forage in a climate of reduced competition and predation. Generally nocturnal insects possess superposition compound eye

Aim: To determine whether pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A2 levels are increased in early pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes and whether gestation age influences levels. The possible use of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A2 as a pre-screening biomarker to reduce the need for performing oral glucose tolerance tests in pregnant women was also investigated. Methods: Pregnant wo

Large herbivores can control plant community composition and, under certain conditions, even induce vegetation shifts to alternative ecosystem states. As different plant assemblages maintain contrasting carbon (C) cycling patterns, herbivores have the potential to alter C sequestration at regional scales. Their influence is of particular interest in the Arctic tundra, where a large share of the wo

This book focuses on the challenges of living with climate disasters, in addition to the existing gender inequalities that prevail and define social, economic and political conditions. Social inequalities have consequences for the everyday lives of women and girls where power relations, institutional and socio-cultural practices make them disadvantaged in terms of disaster preparedness and experie

Avian haemosporidians are vector-transmitted blood parasites that are distributed worldwide, abundant in many bird families and well studied across Europe and North America. Since avian haemosporidians have been poorly examined in the Palearctic migratory flyways of the Western Balkans, the goal of this study was to investigate which species of three haemosporidian genera, Plasmodium, Haemoproteus

Background: It is of great clinical importance to exclude myocardial infarction in patients with suspected coronary artery disease who do not have stress-induced ischemia. The diagnostic use of myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in this situation is sometimes complicated by attenuation artifacts that mimic myocardial infarction. Imaging in the prone position ha

Barnfridsbrottet infördes i svensk rätt den 1 juli 2021 och utgör alltså ett förhållandevis nytt brott. Bestämmelsen återfinns i 4 kap. 3 § brottsbalken (1962:700) (BrB) och innebär att det är straffbart att låta barn bevittna vissa i bestämmelsen angivna brott mellan närstående eller tidigare närstående personer till barnet. Syftet med lagstiftningen var att uppmärksamma barn som utsätts för att The criminalization of letting children witness domestic violence entered into force in Swedish law on 1 July 2021 and is thus a relatively new offence. It is found in Section 4. Chapter 3. in the Swedish Criminal Code and means that it is now a criminal offence to expose a child to witnessing domestic violence. The purpose of the penalty provision is to notice and give legislative protection to c

This thesis examines the impact of asexual identification on individuals in Japan. It deploys Identity Process Theory to analyze self-identification processes and argues that the unique experience of asexual individuals requires divergence as a supplementary process. In addition, it examines the threats that self-identified asexual individuals face in their environment and the strategies that they

Purpose of the study: To further generate an understanding of previous research on NSD challenges in small firms and NSD methods used by firms when developing new experiential services. Theory: Research on challenges faced by small firms with performing NSD and methods experiential service firms use to perform NSD. Methodology: Qualitative multiple case study, the study is deductive in nature. Dat

Social workers who work within the government with welfare benefits are surrounded by laws, rules, regulations, and ethical codes that have an effect on their everyday work. This study aims to broaden the knowledge regarding social workers’ possibilities to do what they consider best for their clients. This was achieved by conducting semi-structured, qualitative interviews with five social workers

Syftet med studien var att undersöka vilka upplevelser, tankar och känslor frivilligt ensamstående mammor har gällande sitt föräldrablivande, i synnerhet i relation till sin kontakt med mödrahälsovården. Ensamstående mammor som genomgått assisterad befruktning i Sverige (N=10) deltog i studien. Datainsamlingen genomfördes via semistrukturerade intervjuer med hjälp av en intervjuguide. Materialet a

Crystallization of amorphous lactose during storage at high relative humidity and high temperatures has been found to impair the quality of skim milk powders. This is related to the glass transition of lactose. Above a certain temperature (glass transition temperature) amorphous lactose transfers through the rubbery zone into a crystalline state due to increased molecular mobility and as a result

Det här examensarbetet behandlar Suzukipedagogiken och barns upplevelser av föräldrars aktiva stöd och engagemang när deras barn lär sig spela ett musikinstrument. Undervisningsmetoden bygger på interaktionen mellan elev, förälder och lärare, vilket utgör Suzukipedagogikens hörnstenar. För examensarbetets utförande valde jag ut fyra informanter, utifrån kriteriet att de skulle ha haft minst en för

Title: The development of Free Bass In this work I will explain how the accordion with free bass was developed in Sweden. I will also describe how the people, teachers and musicians, did respond when it was introduced. In this study I investigate Swedish freebass teachers' reflections upon their educational issues. I want to look deeper at how they are reflecting over these two systems, and h

I dagens samhälle räcker det inte med en produkts relativa överlägsenhet för att garantera dess framgång på marknaden. Snabb ekonomisk utveckling och avancerad teknologi har lett till knivskarp konkurrens på den globala marknaden. Genom ökad marknadstransparens och avancerade kommunikationer underlättas tillgänglighet till information samt genomförande av gränöverskridande transaktioner. Det har bIn today’s society, the relative superiority of a product is not enough to guarantee its success on a marketplace. Rapid economic development rates and advancing technology has led to a more competitive global market. Increased accessibility to information and cross-border transactions is a result of market transparency and advanced communication techniques. Creating product imitations or very sim

In order to better utilize the wind in urban areas, small-scale wind-turbines can be retro-fitted on existing buildings. However, wind-turbines are as structures very prone to oscillate. If the turbines would be mounted with a stiff connection, these vibrations would transmit to the building structure where high-frequency vibrations will transmit as structure-borne noise, and low-frequency vibrati

Architecture has always been a part of tourism. It was an attraction of cultural tourism, but with opening of Bilbao Guggenheim Museum, a new trend in tourism was noticed, triggered by Bilbao Effect. This new phenomenon was described as architourism, which puts architecture in front as one of the main reasons to visit destinations. This research however aims at understanding how important is archi
