Developing a successful business model without strong control mechanisms will only generate temporary profits. The purpose of control mechanisms in business models is to protect the created values and profit streams from being reduced by competitors‚ partners or strong customers. The last decades have shown a rapid growth in customer power at the same time as new technology and services are being replaced faster. Even though control always has been an important part of the business model

CS601: Computer Networks lab EXERCISE - 1 Write a Program in C/ C++ for error detecting code using CRC-CCITT (16 bit) Objective: To enable the receiver of a message transmitted through noisy channel to check whether the message has been corrupted. The aim of an error detection technique is to enable the receiver of a message transmitted through noisy channel to determine whether the message has been corrupted. To do this‚ the transmitter constructs a value called a checksum that is the function

Water Transport The movement of plants from water to land has necessitated the development of internal mechanisms to supply all the parts of the plant with water. As discussed in Plant Classification‚ Vasular Tissues ‚ tracheophytes (including virtually all terrestrial plants except for mosses and liverworts)‚ have developed complex vascular systems that move nutrients and water throughout the plant body through "tubes" of conductive cells. The vascular tissues of these plants are called xylem

ARTERIES? Veins need valves to create pressure to pump the blood to the heart. Blood flows away from the heart and‚ therefore‚ the pressure is not required. Helps against gravity. 6 NAME TWO EVENTS OCCURING WITHIN THE BODY THAT AID IN VENOUS RETURN. 1. Respiratory "Pump". Pressure changes that occur in the thorax during breathing. 2. Muscular "Pump". Contraction and Relaxation of skeletal muscles surrounding the veins 7 WHY ARE THE WALLS OF ARTERIES PROPERTIONATELY THICKER THAN THOSE OF THE CORRESPONDING

TRANSPORT IN MAMMALS Blood is a connective tissue and every connective tissue consists of cell‚ ground substance or matrix and fibres. For blood‚ it has cells‚ matrix in the form of plasma and fibres in the form of fibrin. In transportation‚ the surface area to the volume ratio of organisms contributes to the rate of movement of materials. For example in Hydra‚ and flat worms‚ the ratio is so high so simple diffusion can allow substances to reach all tissues easily. If the ratio is low‚ in mechanisms

Graph 1‚ illustrates the pH of each quadrat. The pH in Quadrat 1 was more acidic than the pH in Quadrat 2‚ 3‚ and 4 this is due to the slope of the ground (refer to Graph 8)‚ different soil substrate and the decomposition of organic matter. As can be seen from Graph 8‚ the soil pH increased with a decrease in the slope of the ground. In Quadrat 1‚ the soil had a pH of 7.5 due to having a higher soil elevation of -8° in comparison to Quadrat 2‚ 3 and 4‚ in which the slope of the ground was -2°‚ -2°

Experiment 2 : Transport Across Membrane Name : Matrix No : Group : B Semester : 1 Date of Experiment : 05.09.2013 Lecturer’s Name : Miss OBJECTIVE To study the effects of hypotonic‚ hypertonic and isotonic solutions on plant and animal cells. INTRODUCTION In cellular biology the term membrane transport refers to the collection of mechanisms that regulate the passage of solutes such as ions and small molecules through biological membranes‚ which are lipid bilayers

QUESTION 1: Which three states had the largest (positive) change in average weekly earnings over this time period (remember to use the correct units in your answer)? North Dakota $30.49 Nevada $17.11 Texas $15.42 How does Florida compare to the rest of the states in terms of the change in average weekly earnings? In comparison to the other states‚ Florida ranks 25th out of 50 states and this is due to a -$1.00 change in average weekly earnings. How does New York compare to the rest of the states
