Whether the menu in school canteens reflects recommendations for compilation of the menu and consumption basket, and how large percentage of children eat in the cafeteria what foods offers the school buffet to children and what do the kids in the cafeteria frequently buy; whether the sortiment of the school buffet influences the students eating and to what extent. The Work was made using questionnaires distributed among 330 pupils at three primary schools in Prague, Brno and Sedlcany at both levels - junior and senior. On individual schools there were further analyzed the menus of school canteens in the period in which the questionnaires were distributed in schools. The buffet assortment was sent and communicated with leaders of school canteens. A study shows that children's eating habits are influenced by monitored factors mainly by gender, age, location of residence and dining options represented by cafeterias and school lunches offers. All three surveyed schools offer their pupils a choice of several lunches, in one case, with the additional option of diets. From three...

Borešová, Martina ; Ehler, Edvard (advisor) ; Vančata, Václav (referee)
The diploma thesis is mainly focused on monitoring Rohrer's index (RI) at preschool children in age of 3, 4, 5, and 6. The work is solving the question of mutual relation between Rohrer's index, sickness rate, and spontaneous activity of preschool children. Furthermore, Body Mass Index (BMI) is listed as another anthropometric index. In fact, BMI shouldn't be used for this age group but it's mentioned for its general knowledge. The anthropometric research includes the measurement of preschool's children body height and weight. 240 children were measured in total. Each age group contains 60 kids from which are always 30 boys and 30 girls. In addition, there is evaluated children's half year of preschool attendance, sickness, and spontaneous physical activity. The research is dealing with the question if body weight or height can influence children's sickness rate. Moreover, there is solved the association between kids' anthropometric indexes and physical activity. The data were processed through Student's t- test and the independence test 2 . As it is stated by professionals, the research has proven that Rohrer's index is decreasing in relation to age. The next result shows that children with lower anthropometric indexes are usually more spontaneously active. Kids with higher indexes are more...

TITLE: Heart Function and Disfunction in Human Anatomy Teaching in Schools AUTHOR: Nicole Martinková DEPARTMENT: Department of Biology and Environmental Studies SUPERVISOR: Doc. RNDr. Václav Vančata, CSc. ABSTRACT: This Bachelor's thesis is concerned with the anatomy of the human heart, with its function, and with the most important illnesses of the coronary system. The aim of this thesis is especially to find out how teachers in schools dedicate to the issue of the anatomy and function of the heart and its diseases that are associated with unhealthy diets and poor lifestyle and how they point out the prevention.

Dating in Geological Science
Valčíková, Marie ; Teodoridis, Vasilis (advisor) ; Vančata, Václav (referee)
The presented Bachelor thesis has a character of a literature search and discusses aspects related to the determination of time in geological sciences. In the broader concept, the thesis can be divided into two major units. The first part describes the geological sciences, which are directly or indirectly related with determining the time, such as historical geology, stratigraphy, paleontology, structural and sedimentary geology. In this part the process of recording geological history of planet Earth is also defined and characterized, including specifications of the geological time scale and historical preview on issue of development in determining the time connected with issues of determining the age of the Earth. The second part of the thesis deals with relative and absolute methods that are used in geological sciences for determining the time. Two main laws of relative dating are presented, i.e. the law of superposition and the law of the same fossils. Absolute radiometric dating methods are briefly described and characterized with respect to their application to geological practice. While the selection reflects the commonality of the application in geology. Key words: time, geologic sciences, age of the Earth, relative dating, absolute dating
