Outline the purpose of anti-biotics Antibiotics are used for treatment or prevention of a bacterial infection. 2. Define the term resistance The refusal to accept or comply with something; the attempt to prevent something by action or argument. 3.

(organizing‚ leading‚ and controlling) are all based on planning. Planning is the first of the functions and is described in the readings as an activity completed at all levels of an organization. However‚ the nature of the actual planning activity changes based on the responsibility and authority of those doing the planning. We must remember that planning occurs within all functions of a business. In the global economy‚ managers must consider people and business opportunities all over the world

These are a few of many stories in which Jewish citizens used hope and determination to their advantage‚ to fight for their survival and through resistance‚ have an impact upon the Holocaust. In every Ghetto‚ in every deportation train‚ in every Labour Camp‚ within the Hidden Forests‚ and even in the Death Camps; the will to resist was strong‚ and took many forms.

Don’t Take the Wrong Decision Shortcuts The benefit of an almost inexhaustible supply of facts‚ figures and data can often be a double-edged sword in our increasingly complex‚ information-overloaded world. While having all the pertinent facts is critical to good decision-making‚ at the same time conflicting information can leave us stuck and uncertain of how to proceed. However‚ behavioral scientists have found that‚ remarkably‚ as decision complexity increases‚ we actually rely on less information

PROJECT Introduction Title: Investigate one factor that affects the resistance of a wire. Reworded: I am going to investigate if changing the length of a wire changes its resistance. I predict that the longer the wire‚ the more resistance it has. Planning and Preparation Independent Variable: The variable I changed was length (cm). Dependent Variable: The variable I measured was resistance (Ω). Fixed Variables: The variables I kept constant to make it a fair test; were‚ the type of wire (nichrome)

the wire increases‚ the resistance of the wire will increase. Background: Some materials have consistent resistance at the same temperature regardless of how much voltage is applied through them‚ these materials are known as ‘Ohmic’ resistors. This is because they are said to obey Ohm’s law‚ which states that if a voltmetre is used to measure the voltage (V) of an unknown resistance (R)‚ and an ammetre is used to measure the current (i) through the same unknown resistance‚ then ‘R’ would be given

Kerslake What causes antibiotic resistance? Antibiotic resistance occurs when an antibiotic is no longer effective against a particular bacteria‚ making that organism resistant to the effects of the antibiotic. Bacteria become resistant due to selective pressure. Those organisms which resist the antibiotic‚ and do not die from it ’s effects have a greater chance of survival within the host‚ therefore allowing them to reproduce and spread it ’s resistance to other bacteria. while the ones susceptible
