Reproductive roles Male’s job is to get the sperm to the egg The sperm are specialized to deliver the male’s genes to the egg Female’s job is to produce a gamete (egg) containing the female’s genes Egg is specialized to nourish the embryo Egg is large and contains nutrients Egg must be moved along Female must also nourish and protect the embryo and fetus This is the job of the uterus Male reproductive strategy: Produce millions of gametes and hope that one makes it to the egg Female reproductive

Cell division in animals: mitosis‚ cytokinesis‚ and the cell cycle. Cell division in animals is a two-step process involving mitosis and cytokinesis and is set up by interphase. Interphase is a growth period for the cell. In the nucleus the chromosomes are duplicated but are not yet distinguishable because they are still a form of chromatin. There is also a nucleoli‚ one or more‚ present producing ribosomes that are sent to the cytoplasm. Mitosis is the division of the nucleus and multiplication

The Role of the Citric Acid Cycle The Citric Acid Cycle is a series of enzyme-catalysed reactions that take place in the mitochondrial matrix of all aerobic organisms. It involves the oxidation of the acetyl group of acetyl CoA to two molecules of carbon dioxide. Each cycle produces one molecule of ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation‚ and reduces three molecules of NAD and one molecule of FAD for use in Oxidative Phosphorylation. The cycle is preceded by Glycolysis‚ which also occurs in anaerobic

The Need for Life-Cycle Assessment in Buildings Although LCA has been widely used in the building sector since 1990‚ and is an important tool for assessing buildings [29]‚ it is less developed than in other industries‚ including perhaps the engineering and infrastructure sector. The building industry‚ governments‚ designers and researchers of buildings are all affected by the trend of sustainable production and eco-green strategies. The importance of obtaining environment-related product information

on measuring the ecological impacts in hopes of reducing them. A multitude of tools have since been created to measure efficiency in hopes to highlight areas for improvement‚ of which the ISO standard and Life cycle assessment are part of. Undoubtedly‚ many companies have adopted life cycle analysis (LCA) in order to assess and reduce their product’s impact on the environment. The fashion industry‚ at its core‚ is based on the notion of continual consumption of the ‘new’ and the discard of the ‘old’

Production System Having an understanding of environmental sustainability of the complete life cycle of products and services is becoming imperative for organisations so they can comply with environmental standards and to meet the growing public expectation regarding the organisation’s role in managing their environmental impacts. But this is a complex matter and this essay critically appraises Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as a tool to provide decision-making support in improving production processes

product life cycle: introduction‚ growth‚ maturity‚ and decline (Figure 1). Introduction The introduction stage of the product life cycle is where a new product is launched into a market. Often the product will have little or no competitors at this point. Nonetheless‚ sales may remain low because it takes time for the market to accept the new product. At this stage of the life cycle‚ the company usually loses money on the product. Growth In the growth stage of the product life cycle‚ the market
Premium Product life cycle management Marketing Introduction
The product life cycle theory is used to comprehend and analyze various maturity stages of products and industries. Product innovation and diffusion influence long-term patterns of international trade. This term product life cycle was used for the first time in 1965‚ by Theodore Levitt in an Harvard Business Review article: "Exploit the Product Life Cycle". Anything that satisfies a consumer’s need is called a ’product’. It may be a tangible product (clothes‚ crockery‚ cars‚ house‚ gadgets) or
