QUALITY CIRCLE Submitted by‚ Rahul B R Roll No: 34 2nd SEM SMBS Introduction Quality circles were originally associated with Japanese management and manufacturing techniques. The introduction of quality circles in Japan in the postwar years was inspired by the lectures of W. Edwards Deming (1900-1993)‚ a statistician for the U.S. government. Quality Circle is one of the employee participation methods. It implies the development of skills‚ capabilities‚ confidence

A habitat is an ecological or environmental area that is inhabited by a particular species of animal‚ plant‚ or other type of organism.[1][2] It is the natural environment in which an organism lives‚ or the physical environment that surrounds a speciespopulation.[3] A habitat is made up of physical factors such as soil‚ moisture‚ range of temperature‚ and availability of light as well as biotic factors such as the availability of food and the presence of predators. A habitat is not necessarily a

of Climate‚ Distribution‚ and Human Interaction in Declining Arctic Fox Population What if a species is declining uncontrollably‚ but there is lack of response and awareness to these regions needing help? The Vulpes lagopus (Arctic fox) is categorized as ‘least concern’ in risk of extinction. However‚ it is important to analyze the trends since they are looking grim for future populations (Angerbjörn‚ Berteaux‚ & Ims‚ 2012). The Arctic fox population is declining in Nordic and North American regions

Conics are surprisingly easy! There are four types of conic sections‚ circles‚ parabolas‚ ellipses‚ and hyperbolas. The first type of conic‚ and easiest to spot and solve‚ is the circle. The standard form for the circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2. The x-axis and y-axis radius are the same‚ which makes sense because it is a circle‚ and from In order to graph an ellipse in standard form‚ the center is first plotted (the (h‚ k)). Then‚ the x-radius is plotted on both sides of the center‚ and the y-radius

into helping global climate change because rising sea levels are dangering the land‚ there is a major decrease in arctic ice‚ and rising temperatures are causing more animal species to go on the endangered list. Some may argue that ice and glaciers have been growing and receding for hundreds of years‚ but they will always grow back again. However‚ for the past 100 years though‚ arctic ice and glaciers have been decreasing at an alarmingly fast rate. Glaciers have slowly been getting smaller and smaller

The Ecological Imperialism: The Biological Expansion of Europe from 900-1900 details the reasoning for the easy transition of life in Europe to the conquered lands‚ which Alfred W. Crosby calls “Neo-Europes”. It was published by Cambridge University Press in 1986 and is 311 pages long‚ though it does not seem like it when reading. Crosby is a historian most famous for his other publication‚ Columbian Exchange. He is currently a professor at the University of Texas at Austin and has taught at Washington

Few events in the history of this planet have as significantly‚ or as quickly‚ shattered the equilibrium of the natural order as thoroughly as the expansion across the globe of Europeans during the last millennium. Although Europeans can be found today throughout the world‚ outside of Europe itself‚ they tend to be unevenly dispersed‚ congregating in latitudinal zones of similar climate. In Ecological Imperialism: The Biological Expansion of Europe‚ 900-1900 Alfred W. Crosby attempts to explain why
