The bHLH protein Atonal was first identified as a proneural gene involved in the formation of mechanosensory cells and photoreceptor cells in Drosophila （larman et al., 1993, 1994）. Atonal is expressed in sensory organ precursors and is required and sufficient for the development of chordotonal organs （Jar- man et al., 1993）. Moreover, Atonal expression is observed in the developing eye and is essential for the differentiation of R8 photoreceptors, which are the first photoreceptors that appear during development. Atonal is not involved in the formation of other photoreceptors （R1-R7） directly. However, R8 photore- ceptors recruit other photoreceptors from the surrounding cells （Jarman et al., 1994）.展开更多

文摘During the continuous casting process of high-Mn high-Al steels,various types of gases such as Ar need to escape through the top of the mold.In which,the behavior of bubbles traversing the liquid slag serves as a restrictive link,closely associated with viscosity and the thickness of liquid slag.In contrast to two-dimensional surface observation,three-dimensional(3D)analysis method can offer a more intuitive,accurate,and comprehensive information.Therefore,this study employs a 3D X-ray microscope(3D-XRM)to obtained spatial distribution and 3D morphological characteristics of residual bubbles in mold flux under different basicity of liquid slag,different temperatures,and different holding times.The results indicate that as basicity of slag increases from 0.52 to 1.03,temperature increases from 1423 to 1573 K,the viscosity of slag decreases,the floating rate of bubbles increases.In addition,when holding time increases from 10 to 30 s,the bubbles floating distance increases,and the volume fraction and average equivalent sphere diameter of the bubbles solidified in the mold flux gradually decreases.In one word,increasing the basicity,temperature,and holding time leading to an increase in the removal rate of bubbles especially for the large.These findings of bubbles escape behavior provide valuable insights into optimizing low basicity mold flux for high-Mn high-Al steels.

文摘The properties of direct reduced iron(DRI)smelting slag are important in the DRI melting process for molten iron production to ensure the slag-iron separation and quality of molten iron.The influence of binary basicity on the viscosity and sulfide capacity of CaO-SiO_(2)-MgO-Al_(2)O_(3)-FeO slag was investigated by the high-temperature experiments,structural analysis and thermodynamic calculation.The viscosity of the slag decreased rapidly with an increase in basicity from 0.4 to 0.8,and this trend became slow as the basicity further increased to 1.2.For the acidic slag with basicity of 0.4 and 0.6,the viscosity at 1500℃ was higher than 0.6 Pa s,which was harmful for the fluidity of slag melt.The slags with basicity of 0.8,1.0 and 1.2 at 1500℃ showed the low viscosity of less than 0.6 Pa s.For the basic slag with basicity of 1.0 and 1.2,the rapid precipitation of melilite led to the abrupt increase behavior of the viscosity,and the acidic slag showed the gentle temperature-viscosity curves.The Raman analysis revealed that the conversion from Q^(3) to Q^(2),Q^(1) and Q^(0) mainly occurred with the basicity increasing from 0.4 to 0.8,and the conversion from Q^(2) to Q^(1) and Q^(0) was dominant with further increase in basicity to 1.2,decreasing the degree of polymerization.The sulfide capacity was improved with the increasing basicity due to the increase in O^(2-)ions,and CaS could be formed dominantly for S^(2-)stabilization in present slag.The sulfur partition ratio was derived from sulfide capacity,and the values of sulfur partition ratio at basicity of 0.4 and 0.6 were much smaller than those at basicity of 0.8,1.0 and 1.2,indicating a weak desulfurization ability of the slag with a low basicity.

文摘As a by-product of the steelmaking process,steel slag has a large stock and poor stability,which has led to a gradual decline in its utilization.In order to enhance the utilization rate of steel slag,the preparation of basic pellets by using steel slag as the flux was proposed,in consideration of the high basicity of steel slag.The incorporation of steel slag has been demonstrated to enhance the water-holding capacity and the decrepitation temperature of green pellets.The addition of steel slag increases the content of calcium oxide in the pellets,promotes the formation of a fusible phase in the pellets,and thus increases the liquid phase.With the increasing content of steel slag,the porosity of finished pellets gradually increases and the compressive strength decreases,but the compressive strength of finished pellets can all exceed 2500 N.The addition of steel slag can improve the reducibility index of pellets,with the maximum reducibility index increasing by 12.06%;the reduction swelling index is less than 10.9%,and the reduction degradation index is more than 58.4%.
文摘This study investigated the mediating role of basic psychological needs satisfaction in relationship between teacher support and adolescents’personal growth initiative.A total of 493 adolescents(females=44.8%,mean age=12.46,SD=0.57)completed the Teacher Support Scale,the Adolescents’Personal Growth Initiative Scale,and the Basic Psychological Needs Scale.The results,analyzed through a Mediation model analysis results indicated higher teacher support to be significantly associated with higher adolescents’personal growth initiative.Teacher support was also associated with higher basic psychological needs satisfaction.Basic psychological needs satisfaction mediated the relationship between teacher support and adolescents’personal growth initiative for higher personal growth initiative.Thus,enhancing students’perceptions of teacher support would support the student’s sense of proactive and resilient growth with basic psychological needs satisfaction.
文摘With the transformation of medical models and the advancement of medical technology,the new era has put forward higher requirements for nursing talents.Nursing staff should not only master solid professional skills and knowledge,but also possess innovative thinking and interdisciplinary cooperation capabilities.As an important place for cultivating nursing talents,higher vocational colleges should update the teaching content of experiment and training in a timely manner in combination with the needs of social changes.Based on this,this paper studies the experiment and training teaching of basic nursing in higher vocational nursing majors,analyzes the changes in the demand for nursing talents in the new era,expounds the existing problems in the current teaching,and puts forward corresponding implementation countermeasures,to cultivate high-quality nursing talents meeting the needs of the new era and provide reference for the teaching reform of higher vocational nursing majors.
文摘Several factors can influence learning process and the overall students’performance but it seems that few studies had made attempt to investigate the influence of teachers and school factors on students’achievement especially in a technological-driven world where Basic Science performance is low.The study investigated teachers’characteristics and school factors as correlates of students’achievement in Basic Science in Oyo State.The survey research was anchored on constructivism and theory of learning.Multi-stage sampling procedures were employed to select all the 33 Local Government Areas of Oyo State.Two schools each,66 teachers and 1,980 students participated in the study.Three validated instruments used to gather information are:Teachers’Characteristics and School Factors Questionnaire with r=0.84,Teachers’Observational Sheet with r=0.87,and Basic Science Achievement Test with r=0.87.Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics at 0.05 level of significance.Significant relationship was found between teachers’experience(r=0.77,0.003,P<.05),teachers’subject mastery(r=0.66,0.019,P<.05),school location(r=0.62,0.031,P<.05),and students’achievement.School facilities(β=1.244;t=2.487;p<0.05)contributed significantly to the prediction.The variables jointly explained 82%of the variance observed in students’achievement in Basic Science.There is a strong correlation of variables on students’achievement.Teachers should improve on their subject mastery skill while enabling environment should be provided by the government.
