Nursing Education Evolution & Degree in Spain
Nursing Education Evolution in Spain Since 1977
A momentous event for the nursing discipline occurred in 1977: it acquired the status of a university degree. Since then, nursing has experienced impressive development in all aspects, especially in teaching. Nurses are aware they must play a central role in education, training their own colleagues, emphasizing collaboration rather than exclusion of other professionals.
The law establishing the Diploma of Nursing curriculum outlined the different subjects,

Describing Motion
- Motion: Change of position relative to other objects.
- Reference point: A place or object used for comparison to determine if something is in motion.
- International System of Units (SI): The system used to describe motion measurements.
- Distance: The length of the path between two points.
Speed and Velocity
- Speed: The distance an object moves per unit of time.
- Calculating speed: To calculate speed, divide the distance by the time (Speed = Distance / Time).
- Calculating average speed: To find
Fundamentals of Genetics and Modern Applications
Core Concepts in Genetics
Genetics studies everything related to biological inheritance, genes, and their expression in organisms.
Conclusions from Classical Genetics:
- The unit of heredity is the gene.
- Genes are transmitted according to defined rules or laws.
- Genes are located on chromosomes.
- Sex is determined by genes or chromosomes.
Key Genetic Terms
Genotype: The genetic constitution of an individual character or refers to a whole set of genes.
Phenotype: The outward expression of the genotype.
Allele:

Catalan Textiles & Spanish Railway Development
Catalan Textile Industry Development
In Andalusia, fledgling textile manufacturing had started. The Indiana factories had increased production in the late 18th century and built the first mechanical spinners. However, in 1808, the Peninsular War halted this expansion. After the conflict, production resumed rapidly. Liberalization measures and market production policies established by progressive liberal governments, along with the elimination of guild privileges, promoted the free exercise of industrial

Human Rights: Foundations, History, and Challenges
Understanding Human Rights
Since the late eighteenth century, the existence of fundamental human rights has been increasingly acknowledged. These rights are inherent to all human beings, founded either in reason or human conscience. As members of the same species, we all possess these rights equally. Consequently, everyone is entitled to these rights without distinction of age, sex, religion, ideology, economic or social position, or nationality. Human rights are applicable to all human beings living

Subatomic Particles Discovery
Electron
Electrons allow electric current conduction in discharge tubes. Discovered by J.J. Thomson (1897), cathode ray particles were identified as negatively charged and possessing very little mass.
Proton
Observed in discharge tubes as rays traveling opposite to cathode rays when using a perforated cathode (canal rays). Discovered by E. Goldstein (1886), canal rays were found to consist of particles with a positive electric charge and a mass approximately 1837 times

Twelve Years’ Truce (1609)
Signed in 1609 between Philip III of Spain and the Dutch Republic (United Provinces), this truce marked a pause in the Eighty Years’ War, where the Dutch fought for independence from Spain. Philip II had previously abdicated rule over the Low Countries to his daughter Isabella Clara Eugenia and her husband, Archduke Albert, but this did not resolve the conflict.
Reasons leading to the truce included:
- Religious struggles
- Economic and financial difficulties
- War fatigue on both
