Discover Your Products’ Hidden Potential by Ian C. MacMillan and Rita Gunther McGrath A simple matrix helps you identify the attributes that will make your goods and services most competitive. Why did a minor math error that would occur only once every 27‚000 years so enrage customers that it briefly threatened to derail Intel’s Pentium chip? And how could a feature as trivial as an inexpensive cup holder swing millions of customers to purchase a $17‚000 automobile—particularly when only

Case Study: Urinary‚ Fluid & Electrolyte balance The cardiovascular system and the urinary system are intimately entwined. When the cardiovascular system experiences stress‚ the urinary system can be directly impacted. For example in hemorrhagic shock‚ when the body is rapidly depleted of circulating blood volume‚ the kidneys are often one of the first vital organs affected due to lack of perfusion. The kidneys are dependent on the sufficient cardiac output that the heart delivers. So when the

Topic: “The effect of cell phone use on need for affiliation.” Hypothesis: Teenagers who use cell phones‚ use them to feel that they are affiliated with their social groups at all times. These teenagers use their cell phones as a convenient way to fulfill their need for affiliation‚ therefore taking the place of acquainting in person. Experimental Design: An experiment to prove my hypothesis could be to evaluate a control group and experimental group based on how many times they hang out with their

The Effect of the Concentration of Sulphuric Acid on the Reaction Rate with Magnesium Sarah Cain SCH 4UB Mr. Lankin April 1‚ 2009 Introduction The nature of the problem is to design an investigation that examines a variable affecting the reaction rate. In this experiment‚ magnesium will be reacted with different concentrations of sulphuric acid. The reaction is shown by the following chemical equation: H2SO4 (l) + Mg (s) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study Concentration has been defined as the ability to direct one’s thinking in whatever direction one would intend. Concentration plays vital roles in doing well in studies. A student has to work really hard and concentrate firmly to get concepts well in mind. All students have the ability to concentrate some of the time. But at other times students’ thoughts are scattered‚ and their minds race from one thing to another. They don’t have the ability to

The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of different concentrations of sodium chloride have on the germination of lettuce seeds‚ Lactuca sativa. A study done by Katembe et al.‚ (1998) stated that an increase in salt solution in the environment of the seed will slow down water imbibition‚ therefore‚ preventing germination and root growth. The prediction for this experiment was that lettuce seeds‚ Lactuca sativa‚ having a higher concentration of salt in their environment will have a lower

Osmosis Lab: Potatoes and Elodea Background Information: Cells have a need to regulate their internal environment. They need to be able to this because cells often find themselves in environments where the concentration of dissolved solids outside the cell is different from the number of dissolved solids inside the cell. Since the solids can not move across the membrane‚ the cell responds by moving water either into or out of the cell in an attempt to balance the number dissolved particles.

Objective To investigate the effect of carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis Introduction Photosynthesis is a process that is essential for every living organism. Organic substances‚ such as glucose‚ are made from carbon dioxide and water by light energy from the sun. The light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and converted to chemical energy. During the process‚ oxygen is released as a by-product. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by a few of factors‚ including
