Sensory Loss Level 5 Diploma 4/1/13 Jackie Wade Identify methods for raising awareness of sensory loss: * A working description of deafblindness that has been accepted over many years‚ is that persons are regarded as deafblind if their combined sight and hearing impairment cause difficulties with communication. It can be found in all age groups including children but the greatest is in older people. * Having a sight and hearing loss sometimes called dual sensory impaired

Visible light (commonly referred to simply as light) is electromagnetic radiation that is visible to the human eye‚ and is responsible for the sense of sight. Visible light is usually defined as having a wavelength in the range of 400 nanometres (nm)‚ or 400×10−9 m‚ to 700 nanometres – between the infrared‚ with longer wavelengths and the ultraviolet‚ with shorter wavelengths. These numbers do not represent the absolute limits of human vision‚ but the approximate range within which most people can

Receptor-mediated endocytosis Receptor-mediated endocytosis is an important mechanism the body uses to remove cholesterol from the bloodstream. Persons with the inherited disease hypercholesterolemia lack normal LDL receptors and as a consequence‚ have dangerously high levels of circulating cholesterol. Their cells cannot remove circulating LDL particles‚ and so the load of cholesterol tends to accumulate on the walls of their arteries‚ which eventually blocks blood flow. Mammalian cells use receptor-mediated

As stated above the androgen receptor-coding gene is located in band Xq11-q12 on the long arm of the (X) chromosome. This portion of the X chromosome is about 90kb and contains 8 exons that code 919 amino acids with a mass of approximately 110kDa. These many amino acids determine the structure of the transcription factor protein involved in steroid-hormone activation. The androgen receptor has several functional domains‚ which are inconsistently classified among various literature. In general the

What is receptor mediated endocytosis? Explain how it occurs. Receptor meditated endocytosis is a way the cell uses endocytosis by absorbing coated vesicles by the means of clathrin and breaking down the absorbed materials so the cell can use it. Receptor mediated endocytosis begins by the binding of a protein to a receptor that is located on the plasma membrane. Next the receptors collect and cluster in coated pits‚ and then forms a vesicle.(pg. 343) Then adaptin binds to the receptor and clathrin

this essay‚ I will briefly review the history‚ definition of Green IT‚ approaches to implement green IT with examples‚ benefits and costs of Green IT. History and Definition of Green IT History of Green IT started with energy star program in 1992 which was designed to encourage and recognize the energy efficiency in the monitors and printing product. Green IT was emerged shortly after the energy star program and the goals of green IT are to reduce the use of hazardous materials‚ maximize energy

Green Technology: Future of power generation NEED FOR GREEN TECHNOLOGY Recently concluded Copenhagen conference on climate change and green house emission expressed concern over the amount of CO2 being released. This would in turn heat up the atmosphere and cause global warming that will result in the melting of glaciers and hence the sea level will rise that is a threat to several coastal cities of the world. So one can imagine how the amount of CO2 emissions can cause problems of displacing

Green IT For Good Corporation (What‚ Why‚ and How) Rebecca Wulankayes (1240002643) What? Green Information Technology (IT) has become an important topic in IT management research and practice in the last years due to economic opportunities and increasing pressure from stakeholders according to several researchers. Although it has been a common topic‚ the understanding of the coverage and the scope is still missing. Some researcher also prefer the term of “Green IS”. Watson et al. (2010)

Introductory awareness of sensory loss (SS MU2.1) Outcome 1 When people have any sensory loss‚ then their mobility and communication are greatly affected. This can lead to increased loneliness and even isolation in some cases. People with any kind of sensory loss can have difficulties in finding employment. Even though the Equality Act and the Disability Discrimination Act mean that employers cannot discriminate‚ it is hard to convince an employer that a sensory loss does not necessarily mean
