A Mixed Methods Investigation of Foreign Language Anxiety and Anxiety-Reducing Strategies in the Saudi Context
Foreign Language Anxiety (FLA) holds great significance in the field of applied linguistics since learning a new language is the integration of body, mind, and emotions; focusing on one part only would never offer a full understanding of the learning process (Damasio, 2006; Young, 1999). Horwitz, …

Probing the Impact of Solvent on Lewis Acid Catalysis via Fluorescent Lewis Adducts
… solvent effects on the Fluorescent Lewis Adduct (FLA) method using a series of representative Lewis acids. The solution-state nature of the FLA method offers the ability to correlate Lewis Acid Units (LAUs) obtained from the FLA measurement with reactivity. The binding of a Lewis acid in various …

Emotions in language learning: applying affective research in English Language Teaching
… is done by focusing on foreign language anxiety (FLA) and motivation, as exemplary affective variables that need to be reduced (Foreign Language Anxiety) and enhanced (motivation) to provide basic conditions for language learning to take place. Dörnyei (2001) proposes a framework that can be used …

Estudio epidemiológico del complejo mosca blanca -geminivirus en cultivos de tomate (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill) y chiltoma (Capsicum annuum L.) en el valle de Sébaco, Matagalpa y en el valle San Cristóbal, Managua
… resultados indican que las variedades de tomate FLA-505, FLA 478-6-3-0, FLA 456-4 presentaron menor porcentaje de incidencia al complejo mosca blanca geminivirus. En el caso de las variedades de chiltoma evaluadas no se detectó la presencia de geminivirus probablemente debido a que los primers …

Mathematical modelling of energy demand and supply in the cardiac myocyte
… integral) relationship is linear, while the ATP- FLA (force-length-area, cellular equivalent of VO₂- PVA) relationship is linear only at low work rates. The linearity of the ATP-FTI relationship is found to arise from kinetic properties of the cross-bridge model. This property is not retained in …

Molecular characterization of motility genes in Bacillus subtilis
The synthesis of the bacterial flagellum is a complex process requiring up to fifty gene products in organisms such as Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. Several genes involved in the process of flagellar synthesis have been identified and characterized from the che/fla operon of B. subtilis, …

Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Motility Mutant in SALMONELLA TYPHIMURIUM
… (30%), also. The proportion of time that the flagella rotated in the clockwise direction was 5% for BT40 and 28% for ST23. Motile BT40 cells had only 1-3 flagella per cell, and the length of the flagellar filaments was only 40% of the normal. The mutant phenotype was designated as …

Testing the null subject parameter in adult second language acquisition: A study of Vietnamese and Spanish speakers learning English
… proposed for first language acquisition (FLA) within the Government and Binding framework of Chomsky's Extended Standard Theory (1981,1986). A grammatical judgment task was used to elicit data about late learners' mental representations of two aspects of English grammar. The two features …

Biochemistry and regulation of CheA in Bacillus subtilis chemotaxis
… in biology. By controlling the direction of flagella rotation, this process allows the organism to sense changes in its surroundings and migrate toward more favorable environments. The process of chemotaxis is controlled by the activity of an autophosphorylating histidine kinase, CheA. The …
