Data Structures and Algorithms

Time Complexity

Determining the time complexity of an algorithm involves analyzing the number of loop executions. The growth function represents the exact relationship between the problem size (n) and the time complexity of the solution. The order of an algorithm refers to its asymptotic time complexity as the problem size and algorithm complexity approach their asymptotic limits.

Common time complexities include:

  • O(1) – Constant time
  • O(log n) – Logarithmic time
  • O(n) – Linear time
  • O(n log n) – Log-linear

Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience: A Comprehensive Overview

Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience

Neurons and Synapses

Neurons are specialized cells that transmit information through electrical and chemical signals. They have a nucleus, dendrites, and an axon. Synapses are junctions between neurons where communication occurs. Neurons can be excitatory or inhibitory, and they release neurotransmitters to communicate with other neurons.

Neurotransmission

Neurotransmission involves the synthesis, release, and reception of neurotransmitters. The process includes:

  1. Synthesis

Seismic Waves

Seismic waves, such as P-waves and S-waves, travel through the Earth’s interior and provide information about its composition. P-waves travel faster and can pass through both solid and liquid layers, while S-waves travel slower and can only pass through solids.

Layers of the Earth

The Earth is composed of several layers:

  • Crust: The outermost layer, divided into continental and oceanic crust.
  • Mantle: The thickest layer, composed of solid rock.
  • Core: The
