IHRM Q.3 - Based on the in-class discussions‚ identify at least three HR functions/activities that have undergone significant changes in the past decades. How have these changes influenced the role and the job itself of the HR manager? Given the changing environments and requirements in many organizations‚ it is not surprising that the expectations of the Human Resources function are changing. Traditionally‚ HR has been responsible for transactional and administrative activities such as recruitment

Structure and function of macromolecules within a living organism ‘Some biological molecules in organisms are small and simple containing only one or a few functional groups‚ others are large‚ complex assemblies called macromolecules’ [1]. The term macromolecule is convenient because the bulk properties of a macromolecule differ from those of smaller molecules. These large chemical compounds have a high molecular weight consisting of a number of structural units linked together by covalent

Describe the key structures and functions of a eukaryotic and prokaryotic cell. Eukaryotic Cell (1) There are many organelles in the eukaryotic cell micrograph above. Some of these organelles are displayed in the prokaryotic micrograph and so‚ I have described the shared organelles in the prokaryotic micrograph section. Mitochondria The mitochondria cells break down nutrients which then creates energy. They act like a digestive system. This process is called cellular respiration. The

Colonisation and Succession in an Ecosystem 1. Ecosystem is a community of organisms which interact with their non-living environment and function as a unit. 2. Habitat is a natural environment where organisms live. Also provide shelter‚ food‚ living space‚ nesting sites and mates. 3. Species is a group of organisms that look alike and have similar characteristics‚ share the same roles in an ecosystem and are capable of interbreeding to produce fertile offspring. 4. Population is

As the only large state sponsored bank in those days‚ it was given the privileged status of being the treasury bank‚ and in the places where the RBI did not have any branches‚ SBI would step in for carrying on the functions‚ like “presiding over the clearing”. Mishra wistfully recalled the stories of yore when in the absence of the Collector in the District‚ the next officer that could give the order for firing‚ was none other than the Agent of the State Bank of India

The Arctic Tundra ecosystem Arctic tundra is located in the northern hemisphere‚ encircling the North Pole and extending south to the coniferous forests of the taiga. The arctic is known for its cold‚ desert-like conditions. All of the plants are adapted to sweeping winds and disturbances of the soil. Plants are short and group together to resist the cold temperatures and are protected by the snow during the winter. They can carry out photosynthesis at low temperatures and low light intensities

Lipids make unglazed paper‚ such as the outside of a paper bag‚ translucent. Phospholipids have a very similar structure to triglycerides. However‚ in phospholipids‚ an additional functional group containing a phosphate group replaces one of the fatty acids. They are the main component of the cell membranes of every cell in

Each cell can be regarded as a metabolic compartment‚ as separate place where the chemical processes of that cell occur‚ the cell is made up of different organelles each specifically designed to carry out their function‚ and this is known as a cells ultrastrucure. All cells have a cell surface membrane; these are made up of phospholipids and make up a bilayer. A phospholipid has a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail which is made up of 2 fatty acid chains; these are arranged is two layers with

components in the ecosystem such as air‚ water‚ soil‚ temperature and light intensity. Biotic factors are the living components in the ecosystem such as animals and plants. In an ecosystem‚ the living organisms live together in their non-living environment and function as a unit. This dynamic system starts with species‚ populations‚ ecosystems‚ communities and biosphere. A species is a group of organisms that look alike and have similar characteristics‚ share the same roles in an ecosystem and are capable
