Euglena is a protist and it contains a flagellum and moves through it. Flagellates have the
locomotary organs flagella. Paramecia contain cilia all over their body surface. The move
through beating of cilia. Foraminiferans are protozoans that exhibit streaming movements like
amoeba to capture food through granular cytoplasm and the external shells. Option 3 is correct..
Which of the following are true More than one answer may be correct.pdf
Which of the following are true? More than one answer may be correct.
Flowers of Rhizanthes infanticida resemble rotting meat in both smell and appearance to attract
their primary pollinator, the blowfly.
Hydnora triceps, a parasitic plant of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, catches small
insects, birds, mammals, and amphibiams in its pitcher shaped flower, high up in the camopy of
the rainforest.
Mistletoe seedlings germinate in the soil as a response to nearby trees, and use viscin covered
roots to slowly climb trees.
Root parasites find hosts through a reciprocal exchange of chemical signals that diffuse through
the soil.
Parasitism has arisen many times during the evolution of plants.
Mistletoes find their hosts by tracking gases emitted by the host and growing toward them.
Parasitism is an ecological relationship between organisms in which one organism (the parasite)
kills the other (the host).
Parasites exhibit a wide range of dependency on host plants, from the hemiparasites, which are
photosynthetic to the holoparasites, which must obtain all nutrients from host plants.
While parasitism in plants represents an interesting scientific subject, parasitic plants have little
impact on human lives.
Movement of nutrients from host to parasite is achieved by two primary mechanisms:
transpiration and an osmotic gradient.

What was the Noble Prize winning advance that saved the magnetic rec.pdf
What was the Noble Prize winning advance that saved the magnetic recording industry and led to
major advances in the personal music device industry?
Solution
In 1887, Heinrich Hertz discovered that electrodes illuminated with ultraviolet light create
electric sparks more easily. In 1905 Albert Einstein published a paper that explained
experimental data from the photoelectric effect as the result of light energy being carried in
discrete quantized packets. This discovery led to the quantum revolution. In 1914, Robert
Millikan\'s experiment confirmed Einstein\'s law on photoelectric effect. Einstein was awarded
the Nobel Prize in 1921 for \"his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect\",and Millikan
was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1923 for \"his work on the elementary charge of electricity and
on the photoelectric effect\".
In magnetic tape recording, the sound waves vibrate the microphone diaphragm and are
converted into a varying electric current, which is then converted to a varying magnetic field by
an electromagnet, which makes a representation of the sound as magnetized areas on a plastic
tape with a magnetic coating on it. Analog sound reproduction is the reverse process, with a
bigger loudspeaker diaphragm causing changes to atmospheric pressure to form acoustic sound
waves. Electronically generated sound waves may also be recorded directly from devices such as
an electric guitar pickup or a synthesizer, without the use of acoustics in the recording process
other than the need for musicians to hear how well they are playing during recording sessions..
What is difference between the Tariff and tax SolutionDifferen.pdf
What is difference between the Tariff and tax
Solution
Difference between Tax and Tariff:-
Tax is a compulsory payment made by an individual, household or a firm to the government
without reference to anything in return. In other words, Tax is a legally compulsory payment
imposed on the people by the government.
Tariff is a tax imposed on imported goods and services. They are to increase the price of
imported goods and services and thereby restrict the trade.
Conclusion:-Taxes are collected internally whereas Tariffs are collected on import of goods and
services..

There are two large plants in the authors’ yard a yucca tree and an.pdf
There are two large plants in the authors’ yard: a yucca tree and an enormous prickly pear cactus.
Both have rough, scaly bark, but it is known that these plants are not closely related. (a) What are
two different explanations for the similarity of the bark? (b) It is also known that yuccas are
descended from a grass species instead of a tree species. Which of the two explanations given in
part a is consistent with this fact?
Solution
A) Two different explanations for the similarity in bark
i) yucca plants adapt to the environment that they live in. Depending on the type of environment,
the yucca plants develop fleshy thick leaves for deserts. They also adapt to the mountains,
coastal sands, grasslands and prairies.
ii) there are some yuccas which are also common to the southwest desert scene. They have
similar characteristics like the traditional cactus. There is a high chance that the yucca present in
the author\'s yard is a desert origin yucca, thus a similarity in the bark.
Yucca filamentosa , which is the grass species of yucca is more found in the desert environment
than the other species of yucca. The second explanation for the similarity in bark is more
consistent in this case with the variation in species ..

day just to dock. This is an example of The major of New Monopoly realizes that the congestion
at the port costs the shipping companies and its town money. Which decision would NOT move
him towards a command economy?
Solution
ans 1
b) private good
as por is congested so it is rival and exclusive in use that\'s why port is private good
ans 2
b) The mayor decides to let individual firms and consumers find a solution for the excessive wait
time.
this decision would not move him towards a command economy because this means giving
individual firms and consumers power to decide about solution themselves which means mayor
is not using his dominating power of command economy.

The climatic stability hypothesis for the change in biodiversity with.pdf
The climatic stability hypothesis for the change in biodiversity with latitude states that: more
stable climates will lead to lower biodiversity due to broad niches for individual species less
stable climates leads to lower biodiversity due to the inability of many species to adapt to
climatic variation more stable climates in the tropics provide greater solar energy to support
biodiversity more stable climates in the tropics in greater rates of thereby enhancing
biodiversity.
Solution
Less stable climate leads to lower biodiversity due to the inability of many species to adapt to
climatic variation..

report “Rabbits and Wolves”Discuss the changes in parameters and how.pdf
report “Rabbits and Wolves”Discuss the changes in parameters and how they affected the
population growth curves for each organism (be sure to mention particular changes in the graphs
and ending populations). Think about how this simulation could apply to the real world. What
other factors or variables would have to be included. What if humans were added as a fourth
organism, how would they affect this simulation? Also, do you think that a computer model is a
useful tool to science? More precisely do you think there are times when such a model is useful
and when such a model is not useful? Be sure to start your discussion with a statement of
objectives - I have listed objectives above, write and state if you think you obtained the
objectives and explain why or why not. There is absolutely no penalty for thinking that you
didn\'t complete one of the objectives.
Solution
Ans.) To understand the different models that are used to represent population dynamics, first
understand the general equation for the population growth rate (it is the change in number of
individuals in a population over time):
dT/dN=rN
In this equation, T = growth rate of the population
NNN = population size
TTT = time
rrr = per capita rate of increase (that is, how quickly the population grows per individual already
in the population).
The equation above is very general, and we can make more specific forms of it to describe two
different kinds of growth models: exponential and logistic.
A positive growth rate implies that the population is increasing, whereas a negative growth rate
shows that the population is reducing. A growth ratio of zero indicates that there is a balance i.e.
that there were the same number of organisms at the beginning and end of the particular time
period. Sometimes, growth rate may be zero even when there are significant changes in the birth
rates, death rates, immigration rates and age distribution between the two times period.
Situation which includes exponential development, different age-independent density variable
influencing survival, three influencing fertility. The one function meeting the presumptions of
the calculated model delivered a strategic development bend typifying the right values or rm and
K. The others created sigmoid bends to which self-assertive strategic bends could be fitted with
differing achievement. In view of population time slacks, two of the capacities influencing
fruitfulness created overshoots and damped motions amid the underlying way to deal with the
enduring state.
The other factors or variables would have been included in the given situation would be the
climate condition.
In my opinion computer model is a useful and informative tool in analyzing the population
growth curves of any organism. In most of the cases, the computer model for population growth
studies is logical..

ANSWER-A communicaton satellite is an artificial satellite that relays and amplifies radio
telecommunications signals via a transponder; it creates acommunication channel between a
source transmitter and a receiver at different locations on Earth. Communications satellites are
used for television, telephone, radio, internet, and military applications. There are over 2,000
communications satellites in Earth’s orbit, used by both private and government
organizationsWireless communication uses electromagnetic waves to carry signals. These waves
require line-of-sight, and are thus obstructed by the curvature of the Earth. The purpose of
communications satellites is to relay the signal around the curve of the Earth allowing
communication between widely separated points.[2] Communications satellites use .

First, describe what a force is and what effects forces have on obje.pdf
First, describe what a force is and what effects forces have on objects. Provide one or two
examples of forces operating at a macroscopic scale to help you form analogies to describe
atomic phenomena. Then describe the forces involved in holding matter together at the atomic
level. Describe what would happen if various atomic forces disappeared? Also, provide a
description of some of the forces between atoms that result in molecules and larger collections of
atoms, and how these forces are important
Solution
Force changes the state of motion and state of rest , Force is a push or pull which creats
acceleration , forces changes direction of the objects moving . force change shape of the objects,
force is the capacity to do work.
Forces work at the macroscopic level prmarly is gravity which is responsible for the whole mass
in the universe to stay in tact with out getting fly away , the same gravity makes stars , solar
systems and helps the formation of planets.
The fource basic forces of nature are , Gravity , Electromagnetic , strong nuclear forces and weak
nuclear forces, out of which gravitational forces works at macroscopic scale and rest of the
threee works in microscopic scale on matter.
Electromagnetic force is responsible for holding all the atoms in molecules to gether ,and also
the same force behind all the chemical reactions. the stong nuclear and weak nuclear forces are
the backbone behind the binding of nucleons in nucleus.
Strong and weak nuclear force play key role in the formation of heavy nucleus from individual
protons, electromagnetic forces are responsible for the formation of atoms , with out either stong
nuclear and EM force atoms may not exist in our universe , and gravity plays the leed role for the
formation of stars where the systhesis of all the nucleus takes places, with out gravity the
universe may left with individual protons and electrons .
The residual attractive or repulsive forces between atoms, molecules, and surfaces, as well as
other intermolecular forces are called vander waals forces, which arise due to electromagnetic
fields, van der Waals forces are weaker than normal covalent ionic bonds which are short-range
forces and should be considered only if the molecules are closer , these forces are important in
the formation of macrosizd molecules in the formation fo liquids and protein stuctures and DNA..

Discuss the role of proteins in membrane structure and transport of .pdf
Discuss the role of proteins in membrane structure and transport of molecules across the
membrane? (AP Biology II Free Response Question)
Solution
These three macromolecules together to form a complex phospholipid bilayer in which
periplasmic proteins are distributed in a mosaic manner. The large fluid mosaic structure is
formed from these macromolecules composed of phospholipid bilayers with protein channels for
the transport of organic & inorganic nutrients including trace metal. Normally, the essential
aspects of these structures composed of \"porins, protein channels, integral proteins” that dictate
their function for the selective permeability, diffusion of nutrients across the membrane into &
out of the cell finally to attain homeostasis
Membrane phospholipids are the molecules with hydrophillic polar heads towards the solvent
such as water whereas hydrophobic tail located towards the center of the layer and this bilayer
formed by micelles, as fatty acids possess one polar associated with another nonpolar head.
Biological lipid bilayers are composed of phospholipids to form spontaneously into bilayers
because the hydrophobic tails, which associate as \"amphiphilic phospholipids\" with hydrophilic
phosphate head. Cell membrane possesses a property known as selective permeability. Cell
membrane consists of phopholipid bilayer that also include several of the transmembrane
proteins, ion channels etc. Small, non-polar molecules with hydrophobic nature diffuse more
easily into the cell membrane. Similarly, proteins interact and assemble themselves to form
several layers of structures in our body.
Small particles are such as oxygen and CO2, urea can cross the lipid bilayer easily through
diffusion compared to glucose (channel mediated-sodium dependent transport into the cell),
amino acids (channel mediated) and various ions etc. Atoms that can form hydrogen bonding or
electrostatic interactions arranged in complementary fashion to create a hydrophobic pore.
Within the cell membrane, the tail portions (lipid region) bonded together and the head portions
(hydrophilic region) exposed into cell interior and exterior, which is very essential for the
selective permeability of cell membrane. Membrane proteins can contain several transmembrane
elements for example G-protein coupled receptors contain 7-transmembrane regions with helical
protein subunits. These membrane proteins can occupy only one side of the membrane but
majority to the internal surface & some of these proteins are in the membrane are locked into the
membrane for ligand binding via other cross-linking membrane proteins or by polar phospholipid
heads with ionic interactions. Majority of transmembrane poritens are three dimentional with
\"alpha-helical sheets\" in their structure
These proteins of mosaic model possess significant characteristics in pertinent to a lot of cellular
processes such as cell-cell signaling, cellular apoptosis followed by cell death, membrane
budding, and biol.
CASE STUDY There is a new phenomenon in the cybersecurity domain ca.pdf
CASE STUDY: There is a new phenomenon in the cybersecurity domain called: “Bring Your
Own Device (BYOD)” where employees can bring their personal devices at work and connect
using the Wi-Fi to the organization’s network. Many employers are allowing their employees to
use their personal mobile device for enterprise functions such as corporate email, work
applications, etc. While this may save the company costs, the organization’s network remains
vulnerable. A company can only monitor so much that’s on an employee personal device;
Assess the threats, the vulnerabilities, and the impacts on an organization’s information systems
posed by the use of mobile devices at work. What can be done to fix it at the policy level,
technology level, and infrastructure level?
Solution
Employees aren\'t just bringing their mobile devices to the workplace — they\'re living on them.
A 2015 study by Bank of America found that 55 percent of respondents sleep with their
smartphones on their nightstands to avoid missing a call, text message or other update during the
night. The devices are also the first thing on their minds in the morning: while 10 percent
reported thinking of their significant other, 35 percent reserved their first thought of the day for
their smartphone.
As smartphones and tablets become constant companions, cyber attackers are using every avenue
available to break into them. Many people expect that iPhone or Android devices are secure by
default, when in reality it is up to the user to make security configuration changes. With the right
(inexpensive) equipment, hackers can gain access to a nearby mobile device in less than 30
seconds and either mirror the device and see everything on it, or install malware that will enable
them to siphon data from it at their leisure.
The nature and types of cyber attacks are evolving rapidly, and mobile devices have become a
critical part of enterprise cyber-security efforts with good reason. Analysts predict that by 2018,
25 percent of corporate data will completely bypass perimeter security and flow directly from
mobile devices to the cloud.
Chief information security officers (CISOs) and other security executives are finding that the
proliferation of mobile devices and cloud services present a significant barrier to effective breach
response. In order to secure the corporate data passing through or residing on mobile devices, it
is imperative to fully understand the issues they present.
5 Security Risks and a Surprising Challenge
The threat and attack vectors for mobile devices are largely composed of retargeted versions of
attacks aimed at other endpoint devices. These risks can be categorized into five areas.
1. Physical access
Mobile devices are small, easily portable and extremely lightweight. While their diminutive size
makes them ideal travel companions, it also makes them easy to steal or leave behind in airports,
airplanes or taxicabs. As with more traditional devices, physical access to a mobile devi.
Ben and Jerrys Homemade This case examines issues of asset contro.pdf
Ben and Jerry\'s Homemade: This case examines issues of asset control for Ben & Jerry\'s
Homemade, Inc., in light of the outstanding takeover offers by Chartwell Investments, Dreyer\'s
Grand, Unilever, and Meadowbrook Lane Capital in January 2000. We can observe the
fundamental firm objectives expressed in the company\'s mission statement and the company\'s
development of a strong social consciousness; but we might question the implications of poor
financial performance combined with takeover defense mechanisms to protect management\'s
control of company assets. Should the board defend the agenda of the current management team
or should it accept one of the takeover offers?
Study Questions Case 3: Ben & Jerry\'s Homemade, Inc.
1. What evidence can you provide regarding its financial performance?
3. Why did Ben & Jerry\'s become a takeover target?
4. Who ultimately controls the assets of Ben & Jerry\'s?
5. What is the impact of the asset-control devices used by management and the state of
Vermont?
6. What other common takeover defense strategies (both pre-offer and post-offer) could be
employed?
7. With respect to the takeover offers currently on the table, are the offer prices high enough?
8. Should the board defend the agenda of the current management team or should it accept one
of the takeover offers?
Solution
The board should accept the offer as it will increase the shareholders intetest.
1. The financial performance can be proved through its financial statements. The financial
statements provides information about the financial and profitability growth. The return on
equity goes up from - 2.6% to 8.9% from year 1994 to 1999.
3. The market share in the industry was unbalanced i. e., 45% as compared to low financial
power, strength and growth which results in the underperformance and the dissatisfaction among
the investors which redults in giving the offers to the hungry investors by the competitors . ..
4.The ultimate control of the assets of Ben & Jerry\'s was limited to company\'s charter,
differential stock voting rights and supportive vermomt legislature.
5.The impact of assets control device used by management and state of Vermont are making
Board of Directors (BOD) which have an ultimate control and offer the company against other
shareholders as on getting the more value in Ben & Jerry.
6. Defense strategies
SUPER MAJORITY : A corporate amendment made in company’s charter whicg require a large
majority of the shareholders to approve important charge such as merger. .
STAGGERED BOARD : It is a board that is made up of different classes of Directors.
POISION PILL: It is atactic utilized by the companies to prevent the hostile takeover..
LIABILITY RESTRUCTURING : The method which is used by thr company in order to get
some advantage with outstanding debt to alter the terms of debt agreements.
7. When we assess the the offer the Unilever is the highest offer bidder with $ 35 (cash) . Its

Introduction to Quality Improvement Essentials
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

two different explanations for the similarity of the bark? (b) It is also known that yuccas are
descended from a grass species instead of a tree species. Which of the two explanations given in
part a is consistent with this fact?
Solution
A) Two different explanations for the similarity in bark
i) yucca plants adapt to the environment that they live in. Depending on the type of environment,
the yucca plants develop fleshy thick leaves for deserts. They also adapt to the mountains,
coastal sands, grasslands and prairies.
ii) there are some yuccas which are also common to the southwest desert scene. They have
similar characteristics like the traditional cactus. There is a high chance that the yucca present in
the author\'s yard is a desert origin yucca, thus a similarity in the bark.
Yucca filamentosa , which is the grass species of yucca is more found in the desert environment
than the other species of yucca. The second explanation for the similarity in bark is more

ans 1
b) private good
as por is congested so it is rival and exclusive in use that\'s why port is private good
ans 2
b) The mayor decides to let individual firms and consumers find a solution for the excessive wait
time.
this decision would not move him towards a command economy because this means giving
individual firms and consumers power to decide about solution themselves which means mayor
is not using his dominating power of command economy.

report “Rabbits and Wolves”Discuss the changes in parameters and how.pdf
report “Rabbits and Wolves”Discuss the changes in parameters and how they affected the
population growth curves for each organism (be sure to mention particular changes in the graphs
and ending populations). Think about how this simulation could apply to the real world. What
other factors or variables would have to be included. What if humans were added as a fourth
organism, how would they affect this simulation? Also, do you think that a computer model is a
useful tool to science? More precisely do you think there are times when such a model is useful
and when such a model is not useful? Be sure to start your discussion with a statement of
objectives - I have listed objectives above, write and state if you think you obtained the
objectives and explain why or why not. There is absolutely no penalty for thinking that you
didn\'t complete one of the objectives.
Solution
Ans.) To understand the different models that are used to represent population dynamics, first
understand the general equation for the population growth rate (it is the change in number of
individuals in a population over time):
dT/dN=rN
In this equation, T = growth rate of the population
NNN = population size
TTT = time
rrr = per capita rate of increase (that is, how quickly the population grows per individual already
in the population).
The equation above is very general, and we can make more specific forms of it to describe two
different kinds of growth models: exponential and logistic.
A positive growth rate implies that the population is increasing, whereas a negative growth rate
shows that the population is reducing. A growth ratio of zero indicates that there is a balance i.e.
that there were the same number of organisms at the beginning and end of the particular time
period. Sometimes, growth rate may be zero even when there are significant changes in the birth
rates, death rates, immigration rates and age distribution between the two times period.
Situation which includes exponential development, different age-independent density variable
influencing survival, three influencing fertility. The one function meeting the presumptions of
the calculated model delivered a strategic development bend typifying the right values or rm and
K. The others created sigmoid bends to which self-assertive strategic bends could be fitted with
differing achievement. In view of population time slacks, two of the capacities influencing
fruitfulness created overshoots and damped motions amid the underlying way to deal with the
enduring state.
The other factors or variables would have been included in the given situation would be the
climate condition.
In my opinion computer model is a useful and informative tool in analyzing the population
growth curves of any organism. In most of the cases, the computer model for population growth
studies is logical..

ANSWER-A communicaton satellite is an artificial satellite that relays and amplifies radio
telecommunications signals via a transponder; it creates acommunication channel between a
source transmitter and a receiver at different locations on Earth. Communications satellites are
used for television, telephone, radio, internet, and military applications. There are over 2,000
communications satellites in Earth’s orbit, used by both private and government
organizationsWireless communication uses electromagnetic waves to carry signals. These waves
require line-of-sight, and are thus obstructed by the curvature of the Earth. The purpose of
communications satellites is to relay the signal around the curve of the Earth allowing
communication between widely separated points.[2] Communications satellites use .

First, describe what a force is and what effects forces have on obje.pdf
First, describe what a force is and what effects forces have on objects. Provide one or two
examples of forces operating at a macroscopic scale to help you form analogies to describe
atomic phenomena. Then describe the forces involved in holding matter together at the atomic
level. Describe what would happen if various atomic forces disappeared? Also, provide a
description of some of the forces between atoms that result in molecules and larger collections of
atoms, and how these forces are important
Solution
Force changes the state of motion and state of rest , Force is a push or pull which creats
acceleration , forces changes direction of the objects moving . force change shape of the objects,
force is the capacity to do work.
Forces work at the macroscopic level prmarly is gravity which is responsible for the whole mass
in the universe to stay in tact with out getting fly away , the same gravity makes stars , solar
systems and helps the formation of planets.
The fource basic forces of nature are , Gravity , Electromagnetic , strong nuclear forces and weak
nuclear forces, out of which gravitational forces works at macroscopic scale and rest of the
threee works in microscopic scale on matter.
Electromagnetic force is responsible for holding all the atoms in molecules to gether ,and also
the same force behind all the chemical reactions. the stong nuclear and weak nuclear forces are
the backbone behind the binding of nucleons in nucleus.
Strong and weak nuclear force play key role in the formation of heavy nucleus from individual
protons, electromagnetic forces are responsible for the formation of atoms , with out either stong
nuclear and EM force atoms may not exist in our universe , and gravity plays the leed role for the
formation of stars where the systhesis of all the nucleus takes places, with out gravity the
universe may left with individual protons and electrons .
The residual attractive or repulsive forces between atoms, molecules, and surfaces, as well as
other intermolecular forces are called vander waals forces, which arise due to electromagnetic
fields, van der Waals forces are weaker than normal covalent ionic bonds which are short-range
forces and should be considered only if the molecules are closer , these forces are important in
the formation of macrosizd molecules in the formation fo liquids and protein stuctures and DNA..

Discuss the role of proteins in membrane structure and transport of .pdf
Discuss the role of proteins in membrane structure and transport of molecules across the
membrane? (AP Biology II Free Response Question)
Solution
These three macromolecules together to form a complex phospholipid bilayer in which
periplasmic proteins are distributed in a mosaic manner. The large fluid mosaic structure is
formed from these macromolecules composed of phospholipid bilayers with protein channels for
the transport of organic & inorganic nutrients including trace metal. Normally, the essential
aspects of these structures composed of \"porins, protein channels, integral proteins” that dictate
their function for the selective permeability, diffusion of nutrients across the membrane into &
out of the cell finally to attain homeostasis
Membrane phospholipids are the molecules with hydrophillic polar heads towards the solvent
such as water whereas hydrophobic tail located towards the center of the layer and this bilayer
formed by micelles, as fatty acids possess one polar associated with another nonpolar head.
Biological lipid bilayers are composed of phospholipids to form spontaneously into bilayers
because the hydrophobic tails, which associate as \"amphiphilic phospholipids\" with hydrophilic
phosphate head. Cell membrane possesses a property known as selective permeability. Cell
membrane consists of phopholipid bilayer that also include several of the transmembrane
proteins, ion channels etc. Small, non-polar molecules with hydrophobic nature diffuse more
easily into the cell membrane. Similarly, proteins interact and assemble themselves to form
several layers of structures in our body.
Small particles are such as oxygen and CO2, urea can cross the lipid bilayer easily through
diffusion compared to glucose (channel mediated-sodium dependent transport into the cell),
amino acids (channel mediated) and various ions etc. Atoms that can form hydrogen bonding or
electrostatic interactions arranged in complementary fashion to create a hydrophobic pore.
Within the cell membrane, the tail portions (lipid region) bonded together and the head portions
(hydrophilic region) exposed into cell interior and exterior, which is very essential for the
selective permeability of cell membrane. Membrane proteins can contain several transmembrane
elements for example G-protein coupled receptors contain 7-transmembrane regions with helical
protein subunits. These membrane proteins can occupy only one side of the membrane but
majority to the internal surface & some of these proteins are in the membrane are locked into the
membrane for ligand binding via other cross-linking membrane proteins or by polar phospholipid
heads with ionic interactions. Majority of transmembrane poritens are three dimentional with
\"alpha-helical sheets\" in their structure
These proteins of mosaic model possess significant characteristics in pertinent to a lot of cellular
processes such as cell-cell signaling, cellular apoptosis followed by cell death, membrane
budding, and biol.
CASE STUDY There is a new phenomenon in the cybersecurity domain ca.pdf
CASE STUDY: There is a new phenomenon in the cybersecurity domain called: “Bring Your
Own Device (BYOD)” where employees can bring their personal devices at work and connect
using the Wi-Fi to the organization’s network. Many employers are allowing their employees to
use their personal mobile device for enterprise functions such as corporate email, work
applications, etc. While this may save the company costs, the organization’s network remains
vulnerable. A company can only monitor so much that’s on an employee personal device;
Assess the threats, the vulnerabilities, and the impacts on an organization’s information systems
posed by the use of mobile devices at work. What can be done to fix it at the policy level,
technology level, and infrastructure level?
Solution
Employees aren\'t just bringing their mobile devices to the workplace — they\'re living on them.
A 2015 study by Bank of America found that 55 percent of respondents sleep with their
smartphones on their nightstands to avoid missing a call, text message or other update during the
night. The devices are also the first thing on their minds in the morning: while 10 percent
reported thinking of their significant other, 35 percent reserved their first thought of the day for
their smartphone.
As smartphones and tablets become constant companions, cyber attackers are using every avenue
available to break into them. Many people expect that iPhone or Android devices are secure by
default, when in reality it is up to the user to make security configuration changes. With the right
(inexpensive) equipment, hackers can gain access to a nearby mobile device in less than 30
seconds and either mirror the device and see everything on it, or install malware that will enable
them to siphon data from it at their leisure.
The nature and types of cyber attacks are evolving rapidly, and mobile devices have become a
critical part of enterprise cyber-security efforts with good reason. Analysts predict that by 2018,
25 percent of corporate data will completely bypass perimeter security and flow directly from
mobile devices to the cloud.
Chief information security officers (CISOs) and other security executives are finding that the
proliferation of mobile devices and cloud services present a significant barrier to effective breach
response. In order to secure the corporate data passing through or residing on mobile devices, it
is imperative to fully understand the issues they present.
5 Security Risks and a Surprising Challenge
The threat and attack vectors for mobile devices are largely composed of retargeted versions of
attacks aimed at other endpoint devices. These risks can be categorized into five areas.
1. Physical access
Mobile devices are small, easily portable and extremely lightweight. While their diminutive size
makes them ideal travel companions, it also makes them easy to steal or leave behind in airports,
airplanes or taxicabs. As with more traditional devices, physical access to a mobile devi.
Ben and Jerrys Homemade This case examines issues of asset contro.pdf
Ben and Jerry\'s Homemade: This case examines issues of asset control for Ben & Jerry\'s
Homemade, Inc., in light of the outstanding takeover offers by Chartwell Investments, Dreyer\'s
Grand, Unilever, and Meadowbrook Lane Capital in January 2000. We can observe the
fundamental firm objectives expressed in the company\'s mission statement and the company\'s
development of a strong social consciousness; but we might question the implications of poor
financial performance combined with takeover defense mechanisms to protect management\'s
control of company assets. Should the board defend the agenda of the current management team
or should it accept one of the takeover offers?
Study Questions Case 3: Ben & Jerry\'s Homemade, Inc.
1. What evidence can you provide regarding its financial performance?
3. Why did Ben & Jerry\'s become a takeover target?
4. Who ultimately controls the assets of Ben & Jerry\'s?
5. What is the impact of the asset-control devices used by management and the state of
Vermont?
6. What other common takeover defense strategies (both pre-offer and post-offer) could be
employed?
7. With respect to the takeover offers currently on the table, are the offer prices high enough?
8. Should the board defend the agenda of the current management team or should it accept one
of the takeover offers?
Solution
The board should accept the offer as it will increase the shareholders intetest.
1. The financial performance can be proved through its financial statements. The financial
statements provides information about the financial and profitability growth. The return on
equity goes up from - 2.6% to 8.9% from year 1994 to 1999.
3. The market share in the industry was unbalanced i. e., 45% as compared to low financial
power, strength and growth which results in the underperformance and the dissatisfaction among
the investors which redults in giving the offers to the hungry investors by the competitors . ..
4.The ultimate control of the assets of Ben & Jerry\'s was limited to company\'s charter,
differential stock voting rights and supportive vermomt legislature.
5.The impact of assets control device used by management and state of Vermont are making
Board of Directors (BOD) which have an ultimate control and offer the company against other
shareholders as on getting the more value in Ben & Jerry.
6. Defense strategies
SUPER MAJORITY : A corporate amendment made in company’s charter whicg require a large
majority of the shareholders to approve important charge such as merger. .
STAGGERED BOARD : It is a board that is made up of different classes of Directors.
POISION PILL: It is atactic utilized by the companies to prevent the hostile takeover..
LIABILITY RESTRUCTURING : The method which is used by thr company in order to get
some advantage with outstanding debt to alter the terms of debt agreements.
7. When we assess the the offer the Unilever is the highest offer bidder with $ 35 (cash) . Its
huge market share in ice cream industry and its .

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
