Yellow Peril

Examples of Yellow Peril in the following topics:

• Civil Rights of Asian Americans

  • A xenophobic stance known as the Yellow Peril is often associated with early 20th century attempts to limit Chinese immigration and to bar Chinese residents from gaining American citizenship.

• Introduction to the Perils of Greenwashing

• Permutations and Combinations

  • Suppose you had a plate with three pieces of candy on it: one green, one yellow, and one red.
  • There are two orders in which red is first: red, yellow, green and red, green, yellow.
  • That is, choosing red and then yellow is counted separately from choosing yellow and then red.
  • In counting combinations, choosing red and then yellow is the same as choosing yellow and then red because in both cases you end up with one red piece and one yellow piece.
  • For example, "yellow then red" has an "x" because the combination of red and yellow was already included as choice number 1.

• Frequency-Dependent Selection

  • Male common side-blotched lizards come in three throat-color patterns: orange, blue, and yellow.
  • Like a game of rock-paper-scissors, orange beats blue, blue beats yellow, and yellow beats orange in the competition for females.
  • The big, strong orange males can fight off the blue males to mate with the blue's pair-bonded females; the blue males are successful at guarding their mates against yellow sneaker males; and the yellow males can sneak copulations from the potential mates of the large, polygynous orange males.
  • In this scenario, orange males will be favored by natural selection when the population is dominated by blue males, blue males will thrive when the population is mostly yellow males, and yellow males will be selected for when orange males are the most populous.
  • In one generation, orange might be predominant and then yellow males will begin to rise in frequency.

• Introduction

  • However, they do so at the peril of putting off planning for the future needs of their enterprise.

• The ZPD

  • On the left-hand side the divisions start as a yellow color.
  • The divisions slowly change hue from yellow to red across the bar.
  • The window on the left represents an area on the bar that 'needs little support. ' The bar divisions are a yellow color to light orange color in this pane of the window.
  • Most of the bar becomes yellow.
  • Because the bar is mostly yellow, the person is 'able to do more'.

• The Antecedents of Progressivism

  • Yellow and personal journalism were antecedents to the Progressive muckraking era in the nineteenth and twentieth century.
  • The muckrakers of the Progressive era were known for their investigative journalism; however, investigations of corruption and social problems had already been introduced into the newspapers of the late nineteenth century by publishers and journalists during the eras of "personal journalism" and "yellow journalism. " Just as the muckrakers became well known for their crusades, journalists from the eras of personal journalism and yellow journalism had gained fame through their investigative articles, including articles that exposed wrongdoings.
  • While some muckrakers, such as Steffens, had already worked for reform newspapers of the personal journalism variety, other muckrakers had worked for yellow journals before moving on to magazines around 1900, such as Charles Edward Russell.
  • Publishers of yellow journals, such as Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst, were more intent on increasing circulation through scandal, crime, entertainment, and sensationalism.
  • While the muckrakers continued the investigative exposures and sensational traditions of yellow journalism, they wrote to change society.

• Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment

  • Consider the characteristics of seed color and seed texture for two pea plants: one that has green, wrinkled seeds (yyrr) and another that has yellow, round seeds (YYRR).
  • From these genotypes, we infer a phenotypic ratio of 9 round/yellow:3 round/green:3 wrinkled/yellow:1 wrinkled/green .
  • Similarly, isolating only seed color, we would assume that three-quarters of the F2 offspring would be yellow and one-quarter would be green.
  • Here, the probability for color in the F2 generation occupies the top row (3 yellow:1 green).
  • Thus, the probability of F2 offspring having yellow, round, and tall traits is 3 × 3 × 3, or 27.

• The Punnett Square Approach for a Monohybrid Cross

  • To demonstrate a monohybrid cross, consider the case of true-breeding pea plants with yellow versus green pea seeds.
  • The dominant seed color is yellow; therefore, the parental genotypes were YY (homozygous dominant) for the plants with yellow seeds and yy (homozygous recessive) for the plants with green seeds, respectively.
  • All offspring are Yy and have yellow seeds.
  • Furthermore, because the YY and Yy offspring have yellow seeds and are phenotypically identical, applying the sum rule of probability, we expect the offspring to exhibit a phenotypic ratio of 3 yellow:1 green.
  • This cross produces F1 heterozygotes with a yellow phenotype.

• Basic Color Vocabulary

  • The spectrum of colors contained in white light consists of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet, in that order.
  • Color is subdivided into the "primary colors" of red, yellow and blue, which cannot be mixed from other pigments, and the "secondary colors" of green, orange and violet, which result from different combinations of the primary colors.
  • Complementary colors" are found directly opposite each other on the color wheel, such as purple and yellow, green and red, or orange and blue, and represent the most aesthetically pleasing combinations of the various colors.
  • "Hue" can be defined as the degree to which a stimulus can be described as similar to or different than those described as red, blue, green and yellow, known as the "unique hues" or "pure colors".
  • In subtractive color theory the primary colors are yellow, cyan and magenta.
