Somatosensory system

The somatosensory system, also known as somatic senses, touch or tactile perception, is a complex sensory system. It is considered one of the five traditional senses. It is made up of a number of different receptors, including thermoreceptors, photoreceptors, mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors. It also comprises essential processing centres, or sensory modalities, such as proprioception, mechanoreception (touch), thermoception (temperature), and nociception (pain). The sensory receptors cover the skin and epithelial tissues, skeletal muscles, bones and joints, internal organs, and the cardiovascular system.

Somatic senses are sometimes referred to as somesthetic senses, with the understanding that somesthesis includes touch, proprioception and (depending on usage) also haptic perception.

Processing primarily occurs in the primary somatosensory area in the parietal lobe of the cerebral cortex: information is sent from the receptors via sensory nerves, through tracts in the spinal cord and finally into the brain.

5th Generation (religious association)

5th Generation is an association Protestant founded by Brazilians young Christians. The group was founded on April 16, 2014 by Gabriel Gomes during the International Congress of Worship and Intercession Diante do Trono held in Belo Horizonte.

History

The association founded by Gabriel Gomes, who is the current leader was founded in April 2014, inspired by the word of the Apostle Valnice Milhomens, who preached about the "Fifth Generation" and the restoration of Brazil, during the great annual conference of the Brazilian band Diante do Trono. The association is made up of young Christians and admirers of the band.

The 5th Generation started with few members, but grew quickly. In May 2014 the group held vigils of prayer and intercession for the recording of the album Tetelestai in Israel, it occurred throughout the month. In the same year during the World Cup in Brazil and the elections in Brazil, the group interceded again, since the first cult held by the 5th Generation took place on September 16, 2014. In April 2015, the association has created a caravan in partnership with Besim Viagens company for the International Congress.

Apple

The apple tree (Malus domestica) is a deciduous tree in the rose family best known for its sweet, pomaceous fruit, the apple. It is cultivated worldwide as a fruit tree, and is the most widely grown species in the genus Malus. The tree originated in Central Asia, where its wild ancestor, Malus sieversii, is still found today. Apples have been grown for thousands of years in Asia and Europe, and were brought to North America by European colonists. Apples have religious and mythological significance in many cultures, including Norse, Greek and European Christian traditions.

Apple trees are large if grown from seed, but small if grafted onto roots (rootstock). There are more than 7,500 known cultivars of apples, resulting in a range of desired characteristics. Different cultivars are bred for various tastes and uses, including cooking, eating raw and cider production. Apples are generally propagated by grafting, although wild apples grow readily from seed. Trees and fruit are prone to a number of fungal, bacterial and pest problems, which can be controlled by a number of organic and non-organic means. In 2010, the fruit's genome was decoded as part of research on disease control and selective breeding in apple production.
