THE EARNINGS PUZZLE: WHY DO WOMEN EARN LESS THAN MEN? ABSTRACT Even though it is against the law to pay women a lower wage based on gender‚ a significant earnings gap exists. Women earn less than men in almost every line of work regardless of age‚ race‚ ethnic background or level of education. This study discusses the disparity of income between men and women‚ and the primary factors that contribute to the disparity. It then looks at some of the legislation that has been passed or is under consideration

Investigating the Water Potential of a Potato. I have been asked to investigate the water potential of a potato. During my investigation I will not actually be able to measure a value for‚ as it is a pressure value (kPa). Osmosis is a special form of diffusion involving only water molecules. It is defined as "The passage of water from a region of high water potential to a region of low water potential through a partially permeable membrane" Definition of Water Potential. The potential for water to move

Lab report OSMOSIS TROUGH A SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE MEMBRANE Introduction: Molecules have kinetic energy. This causes the molecules of the cell to move around and bump into each other. Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion where water moves through a selectively permeable membrane (a membrane that only allows certain molecules to diffuse though). Diffusion or osmosis occurs until dynamic equilibrium has been reached. This is the point where the concentrations in both areas are equal and no

Usman Omid Biology IB 1A The Effect of Temperature on Beetroot Membranes _Aim_ This practical will test the effect of temperature on the integrity of the membranes‚ _Introduction_ The cells of beetroot contain a pigment called betalain in their vacuoles. It is kept inside the cells by the membranes. If these membranes are damaged‚ then the betalain leaks out. The amount that leaks out can be assessed‚ as the leaked out pigment will color the water surrounding the cells. This information can

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

challenge to professionals‚ teachers‚ carers and parents’. (Forus Training Notes) Challenging behaviour can be very evident within my chosen disability of Autism. It can be displayed as a physically aggressive behaviour or a behaviour which causes a negative impact on the person or their family. Each behaviour has a function for the person displaying it. The main aims for challenging behaviour are self-stimulation‚ gaining the attention of others and avoidance. With people who have severe learning

My organization would help to remove people off of the streets and give them a place to live‚ feeding the homeless in soup kitchens while passing out clothing‚ and also funding the education of those who cannot afford it. I believe that taking random

Johnny Izaguirre Professor Orshan ENC1101 June 19‚ 2013 Eat less Meat As reported in 2007‚ 275 million tons of meat were produced worldwide. This is enough meat to supply everyone with 92 pounds of meat. What does this statistic really mean? We will find that the mass consumption of animals is a primary reason why humans are hungry‚ overweight‚ or sick. Also a leading cause of the depletion‚ and pollution of water‚ the degradation and deforestation of natural forest. While causing extinction of species
