students who transfer from community colleges to four-year universities as well as for lateral transfer students. Lateral transfer students encompasses transfers between institutions of the same type: two-year to two-year and four-year to four-year. Transitioning into a new environment can be a very daunting task for transfer students that come with many unforeseen challenges and barriers. Social integration as well as academic under preparedness are some of the challenges that most transfer students

resistant pathogens through horizontal gene transfer. Located in the bacteria are plasmids. They are independent‚ self-duplicating‚ and allow bacteria to perform new functions/generate new products. Basically plasmids help their hosts to stop the action of antibiotics and become resistant. “Gene transfer must be integral and critical to the overall survival of bacteria‚ providing a way for them to adapt to difficult conditions” (Levy 2002‚ 83). Horizontal gene transfer can occur through conjugation‚ transposition

Practice Problems Set – 1 MEC301: Heat Transfer Q.1 The slab shown in the figure is embedded on five sides in insulation materials. The sixth side is exposed to an ambient temperature through a heat transfer coefficient. Heat is generated in the slab at the rate of 1.0 kW/m3. The thermal conductivity of the slab is 0.2 W/m-K. (a) Solve for the temperature distribution in the slab‚ noting any assumptions you must make. Be careful to clearly identify the boundary conditions. (b) Evaluate T at the

following 3 questions as per assignment; QUESTION 1 – What are the three primary differences between Cisco layer 2 network resiliency and HP IRF resiliency? The first obvious difference is the protocols that they use. Cisco uses Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) while HP IRF uses the Link Aggregation Control Protocol. The second difference lies in the architecture being used. Cisco uses a mesh of network switches‚ linked to other switches in the aggregation layer‚ which in turn is linked to the core. This

since the network topology is dynamic. Distance Based Routing (DBR) protocol designed especially for Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANET).DBR algorithm adopts both position based and map based routing technique. In DBR‚ a connectivity graph based on the inter-vehicular distance‚ the duration of connectivity between neighbouring vehicles and the information from the digital map are collectively used to route the data. In DBR protocol the network traffic is reduced due to the relative position information

Conditional cash transfers (CCTs) refers to a form of funding by the government or other humanitarian agencies whereby the fund donated must be used to finance a predetermined undertaking (Fiszbein et al‚ 2009‚ pp. 31). In Conditional cash transfers‚ money has to be spent for the intended purpose and only those who have been approved to meet the predetermined requirements receive such cash. This means that the recipient of the cash has to be vetted thoroughly and their actions determined before getting
