employer to carry out risk assessment has been a requirement of health & safety legislation for many years. A summary of the risk assessment requirements is as follows: a) The Health & Safety at Work etc Act 1974 Sec 2 - Requires an employer to ensure the health‚ safety and welfare of his employees so far as is reasonably practicable. The process of risk assessment has therefore to be applied to determine what is “reasonably practicable” action in controlling any particular hazard. b) Control of

UNLOCKING THE CREATIVE POTENTIAL Creative is almost synonymous. Today creativity is sought in workplace. How does Montessori educate the creative potential of the child? Montessori was herself criticized in which she says “so called free drawing has no place in my system”. The Montessori approach is more complex. It can be described as an indirect preparation. She said to confer the gift of drawing we must create an eye that sees‚ a hand that obeys and a soul that feels; and in this task the whole

RESTING POTENTIAL Resting potential is the membrane potential when a neuron is not conducting any electrical impulse or signal. The resting potential is around -75 mV. During resting potential‚ the inside of the axon is negative GRADED POTENTIAL ACTION POTENTIAL Action potential is a fleeting reversal of the membrane potential‚ caused by changes in permeability of the plasma membrane of neuron to potassium and sodium ions causing an electrical impulse to be transmitted along the axon.

There is a difference between natural hazardsand natural disasters. A hazard is an event orobject that is a potential source of harm to a community. A disaster occurs as the result of ahazardous event that dramatically affects a community. There are six broad types of hazards:1. Atmospheric Ð for example‚ cyclones‚ hailstorms‚blizzards or bushfires2. Hydrological Ð for example‚ flooding‚ waveaction or glaciers3. Geological Ð for example‚ earthquakes orvolcanoes4. Biological Ð for example‚ disease

What is an action potential? To put it simply‚ it is a message that is sent down the nervous line. The message is written and is sent from the central nervous system. That message is addressed to muscles or glands. This essay will explain what happens before‚ during‚ and after an interneuron action potential. To accurately define an action potential‚ it is part of the incredible course of events that occur during the firing of a neuron. When a neuron is not firing signals‚ the interior of the

POTENTIAL ENERGY DIAGRAM In physics the terms of mechanical energy usually refers to Potential energy (U) and Kinetic Energy (K). In the absence of non-conservative‚ or dissipative forces‚ these energies obey the law of conservation of energy‚ or ΔU + ΔK = 0. That is‚ when a system is only acting under the influence of conservative forces its total energy content never changes‚ the energy just converts between forms. At any point in the cycle‚ the total energy is constant‚ U + K = Umax = Kmax

Title: Osmosis and water potential Aim of the experiment: Finding the water potential of potato. Biological principles: Independent variable: concentration of the solution. Dependent variable: percentage changed in weight of the potato strips. Controlled variable: size of the potato strips‚ it can be controlled by cutting the length of the strips. Procedure: Table 1.

In what ways does the language and imagery of Antony’s speech demonstrate his manipulation of the crowd? In Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar‚ Mark Antony’s speech at Caesar’s funeral‚ despite all his protestations to the contrary‚ is fuelled by one purpose: vengeance to those who murdered his beloved Caesar. He uses combinations of verbal irony‚ repetitive diction‚ and heavy emphasis on emotions to sway his audience. He does so without guilt or remorse towards the people to whom the crowd will direct
