VARIABLES THAT INFLUENCE WOMEN IN PARLIAMENT Abstract: Women are consistently underrepresented in political systems around the world. In this research‚ I examine factors such as the gender equality scale‚ education‚ ratio of female to male income and cultural diversity and their impact on the percentage of women in government. My findings reinforce my hypotheses; all four independent variables have statistically significant effects on women in parliament‚ with the ratio of female to male income

ACC604 Final Exam Practice Questions – Series H 1. The Work in Process inventory account of a manufacturing company shows a balance of $18‚000 at the end of an accounting period. The job cost sheets of the two uncompleted jobs show charges of $6‚000 and $3‚000 for materials‚ and charges of $4‚000 and $2‚000 for direct labor. From this information‚ it appears that the company is using a predetermined overhead rate‚ as a percentage of direct labor costs‚ of: A. 50% B. 200% C. 300% D. 20%

VARIABLE-RATE PREFERRED STOCK Preferred stock has frequently been issued in connection with mergers and acquisitions. Often the preferred stock is issued with a conversion feature‚ so in the long run there is a probability it will become common stock capital. Preferred stock allows the acquired firm’s owners a prior claim relative to common stock and reasonably definite dividends while simultaneously giving the acquiring firm a form of leverage without strapping it with the rigid obligations of

Linearity: A linear correlation coefficient factor was obtained between the peak area used and the absorbance Verses concentrations of lamivudine‚ zidovudine and nevirapine. The calibration curves were linear for concentrations between 15-150 µg/ml. The linearity of the calibration curves was validated by the values of the correlation coefficients (r2). The correlation coefficients were 0.999 for lamivudine‚ 0.999 zidovudine and 0.999 for nevirapine. The results of the linearity experiment are listed

Variables Independent variable: The temperature of HCl is going to be changed. The temperature 10℃‚30℃‚50℃‚70℃ and 90℃ of hydrochloric acid will be used to conduct the experiment. The hot plate is going to be used to reach 30℃‚50℃‚70℃ and 90℃‚ that are higher than the room temperature. Ice cubes can be used with water bath to make 10℃ hydrochloric acid. Dependent variable: The time it takes for carbon dioxide gas produces up to 20mL of gas syringe is going to be measured. It will be measured

The structure of the enzyme is mainly dependent on the active site and variable groups. Extreme temperatures or extreme pHs can alter the structure of an enzyme. Enzymes function to lower the activation energy to break the bonds. They achieve this by putting stress and pressure on the bonds or creating a microenvironment for the substrate. Enzymes are regulated by inhibitors or activators and can be inhibited by the products of the reaction‚ called feedback inhibition. Enzymes are catalytic
