On its back the rat fish carries a vigorous venom spine connected to glandular cells, which secrets toxins. A previous study shows that extract from the liver and venom glands had a cytotoxic activity on A. naup
Today's blockchain applications have been inherently created by and for users who understand the blockchain technology. To improve mass adoption of blockchain solutions, the user experience must improve, and the attention must move to users not familiar with the underlying technology. This dissertation starts with reviewing the main concepts of blockchain technology and examining the UX of dif
I mitt yrkesliv har jag varit verksam i ett antal olika organisationer inom samma bransch, både som anställd och på mellanchefsnivå. Det har fått mig att fundera på dels hur företag som till synes är ganska lika med samma verksamhet och målsättning ändå kan vara så olika? I denna uppsats tar jag utgångspunkt i hur det är att vara mellanchef. Att vara mellanchef innebär att vara den person som befi
Motivation and identity have been vastly investigated within second language acquisition (SLA). These issues are restrained by their complex and dynamic natures, which indicate that they are far from easy to research. The purpose of this essay was to continue traditional areas of research in order to add to empirical knowledge. The attempt was to show that systematic research is necessary in order
Det här examensarbetet har till avsikt att fördjupa och aktualisera kunskapen om vilka skolvägsutredningsmetoder som är bäst lämpade för att klarlägga en förbättrad trafikmiljö för barn. Arbetet består av två huvuddelar: den ena är en litteraturstudie som granskar tidigare kunskap inom området kring skolvägsutredningar och den andra delen består av skolvägsutredning via en digital respektive tradi

Insect pollinators, such as bees, provides us with important ecosystem services. Unfortunately, a decline in key pollinators has been seen globally. Habitat loss and fragmentation, e.g, caused by urbanization, have been pointed out as important driving factors of pollinator declines. However, studies have also shown that species richness of pollinators can be greater in urban than in rural habitat
Georg Pauli belonged to a group of artists known as the Opponents, due to their opposition of the way art education, exhibitions, and allocation of grants was managed by the The Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts (Kungliga Akademien för de fria konsterna).

Language anxiety is one of the most difficult issues teachers face in the English classroom today. The area is vast and complex and not much research has been done with a practical focus. This study investigates how the Fogg behavior model can be used to identify foreign language anxiety, and how anxiety affects English learners in a Swedish context. I noticed that there was an inadequate amount o
Automated manufacturing processes are an important component of today’s industries. Assuming the processes are properly maintained they allow for great efficiency when producing various goods. Image analysis can be used as a tool to monitor such processes and evaluate their results. This Thesis treats development of algorithms for automatic evaluation of images acquired using a standardized proce
Att biodiversiteten minskar både regionalt och lokalt är en av vår tids största utmaningar. För att kunna bedriva ett framgångsrikt bevarandearbete i Europa genomförs så kallad biogeografisk uppföljning vars syfte är att övervaka och kartlägga utpekade arters utbredningsområde och populationsstorlek. För detta ändamål är det viktigt med pålitliga standardiserade metoder som är kostnadseffektiva me
A study on the online process of producing idioms in writing and how second language learners manage the production and comprehension of idioms may provide a useful and comprehensive investigation of the production, comprehension and acquisition of language. The study in this paper investigated how Swedish (L1) second language learners of English (L2) produce and comprehend written idioms in the L
The aim in this thesis is to explore how power dynamics are involved as one way of knowing the environment is held to be more rational than the other. This is being put in the case of the development of alternative agriculture in Sweden and Denmark, where organic agriculture has managed to gain greater attention in recent years whilst biodynamic farming has been less successful. Furthermore, this
