diseases. As you saw in Activity 33‚ “From One to Another‚” researchers Alexandre Yersin and Shibasaburo Kitasato independently used the microscope to identify the cause of the bubonic plague. Compound microscopes—microscopes that use more than one lens—were invented around 1595. These first microscopes usually magnified objects only 20–30 times their original size. But as you will learn in the next few activities‚ even this level of magnification was enough to discover a world of new scientific

Introduction Cross cultural communication becomes an essential element in the organization because of the increase and interest in globalization and the diversity in the work environments. The employees in the company will be separated into diverse groups and sub-groups‚ those groups will have their own verbal and non-verbal communication styles which may create disagreement or conflict within the organization‚ especially in the multinational company.

The five dimensions are Power Distance‚ Individualism or Collectivism‚ Masculinity-Femininity‚ Uncertainty Avoidance‚ and Short or Long-Term Orientation. Power Distance The dimension of Power Distance is the attitude toward the inequalities amongst individuals in a society. Power Distance is “the extent to which the less powerful members of institutions and organizations

eld Introduc on Some objects are far too small to be seen with the human eye. However‚ by using a microscope many can be viewed in great detail. There are many types of microscopes that range from low–level magni ca on (i.e.‚ hand held magni ca on lens) to very high power magni ca on (i.e.‚ an electron micro scope). In the middle of that range lies the light microscope‚ or for our purposes‚ the compound light microscope‚ which uses mul ple lenses. The compound light microscope (Figure 1) has two

Geert Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions National cultures can be described according to the analysis of Geert Hofstede. These ideas were first based on a large research project into national culture differences across subsidiaries of a multinational corporation (IBM) in 64 countries. Subsequent studies by others covered students in 23 countries‚ elites in 19 countries‚ commercial airline pilots in 23 countries‚ up-market consumers in 15 countries‚ and civil service managers in 14 countries.

ultimately subjective‚ as our perceptions of cultural differences are shaped largely by our immersion in our own culture. An ethnocentric approach stems from judging an alternate culture in relation to one’s own pre-conceived cultural values‚ held to be superior; the parallax phenomenon‚ the inability to escape our own biases‚ prevents objective analysis of different cultures. A cultural relativist maintains the post-modernist view that there is no moral or cultural high-ground with which to judge one culture

rules. Background information • The measurement of specimen size with a microscope‚ is made by using an eyepiece graticule. This is a glass or plastic disc with 8 divisions etched onto its surface‚ which is inserted into the eyepiece lens. • The size of the eyepiece graticule remains constant‚ despite the fact that the image viewed will change its size depending upon whether high- or low-power objective lenses are used. For example a cell viewed with the x40 objective

The magic lantern is an early predecessor of the modern day projector. It consisted of a translucent oil painting‚ a simple lens and a candle or oil lamp. In a darkened room‚ the image would appear projected onto an adjacent flat surface. It was often used to project demonic‚ frightening images in order to convince people that they were witnessing the supernatural. Some slides for the lanterns contained moving parts which makes the magic lantern the earliest known example of projected animation.
