CRIMINALS HAVE SMALLER BRAIN SIZE, SAYS STUDY
A new study has found that antisocial people are more likely to have smaller areas of their brain. Researchers said criminals' brains had a different structure to the brains of people who followed the law. The study is published in the journal "Lancet Psychiatry". Researchers used data from 672 people born in 1972-73. They looked at records of the people's antisocial behaviour between the ages of seven and 26. At the age of 45, the researchers scanned the people's brains. Eighty of the people had a history of criminal and antisocial behaviour from being early teenagers. Researchers found that the areas of the brain linked to emotions, motivation and behaviour control were smaller in the long-term criminals' brains.
Professor Terrie Moffitt, a co-author of the research, said the research could help doctors understand what is behind long-term antisocial behaviour. She said the antisocial people in the study may have behaved badly because of their brain structure. She said: "They are actually operating under some [disability] at the level of the brain." She added that because of this, we needed to care for these people in a kinder way. Lead author Dr Christina Carlisi said: "Differences in brain structure might make it difficult for people to develop social skills. This may prevent them from engaging in antisocial behaviour. These people could benefit from more support throughout their lives."

Segundo McKardle (2001), Enquanto as vitaminas catalisam os processos químicos sem se tornar parte dos co-produtos da reação, alguns minerais passam a fazer parte das estruturas e das substâncias químicas existentes no corpo. Os minerais desempenham três papéis proemientes no corpo:
Os minerais proporcionam a estrutura na formação dos ossos e dos dentes.
Os minerais facilitam a conversão de piruvato para acetil-coenzima A (CoA) no fracionamento dos carboidratos.
Os minerais niacina e pantolênico regulam o metabolismo energético das mitrocôndrias.
Em termos de função, os minerais ajudam a manter o ritmo cardíaco normal, a contratilidade muscular, a condutividade neural e o equilíbrio ácido-básico.
Os minerais regulam o metabolismo celular tornando-se parte das enzimas e dos hormônios que modulam a atividade muscular.
Segundo McKardle (2001), Os cereais (grãos) e os legumes constituem excelentes fontes de proteínas, porém nenhum deles proporciona o complemento pleno de aminoácidos essenciais. Uma excessão pode ser?
Segundo McKardle (2001), os liídios pertencem a um de três grupos principais: lipídios simples, lipídios compostos e lipídios derivados.
Os lipídios simples ou "gorduras neutras" consistem principalmente em triglicerídios.
Os lipídios compostos, um triglicerídeo combinado com outras substâncias químicas.
O colesterol, o lipídio derivado mais amplamente conhecido, existe somente nos tecidos animais.
Glicogênio é o lipídio de armazenamento peculiar ao músculo e fígado dos mamíferos.
Segundo PONTES JUNIOR (2017), "Enquanto os currículos tradicionais pretendem ser neutros, despolitizados, apoiando-se na razão científica, a teorização crítica e pós-crítica argumentam que não há teoria neutra, natural e puramente científica. Todas estão, inevitavelmente, implicadas em relações de poder. A pedagogia pós-crítica busca realizar um debate ampliado da análise do poder. Não se limita ao campo das relações econômicas do capitalismo, embora o considere." Neste sentido, quais são os objetos de discussão e análise da pedagogia pós-crítica?
Segundo PONTES JUNIOR (2017), "Na concepção propositiva, são oferecidas diferentes gradações de multiculturalismo (...)" Neste sentido, qual o caminho percorrido para a abordagem conhecida como multiculturalismo crítico?
