This document appears to be a diagnostic test for a 7th grade science class. It contains 52 multiple choice questions assessing students' knowledge of scientific concepts and skills across several domains: scientific inquiry and procedures, scientific thinking skills, measurement and tools, properties of matter, forces and motion, earth and space science, life science, and number sense. The questions cover topics such as the scientific method, experimental design, data interpretation, properties of minerals and rocks, plate tectonics, cell biology, and basic math operations.
Lens as an Osmotic Pump, a Bidomain Model. DOI: 10.13140/RG.2.2.25046.80966Bob Eisenberg
The lens of the eye has no blood vessels to interfere with vision. The lens is far too large for diffusion to provide food and clear wastes.
Experimental, theoretical and computational work has shown that the lens supports its own microcirculation. It is an osmotic pump that implements what physiologists have long believed “Convection provides what diffusion cannot.”
We introduce a general (non-electro-neutral) model that describes the steady-state relationships among ion fluxes, water flow and electric field inside cells, and in the narrow extracellular spaces within the lens.
Using asymptotic analysis, we derive a simplified model exploiting the numerical values of physiological parameters. The model reduces to first generation ‘circuit’ models and shows the basis of computer simulations too large to easily understand. The full model helps resolve paradoxes that have perplexed molecular biologists: crucial physiological properties do not depend as expected on the permeability of the lens interior (to water flow).

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
How to Split Bills in the Odoo 17 POS ModuleCeline George
Bills have a main role in point of sale procedure. It will help to track sales, handling payments and giving receipts to customers. Bill splitting also has an important role in POS. For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

that worked out at least 4 out of the 5 days a week. However, the drug was not tested on those who did
not work out. So when the pharmaceutical company received their results they found that the pill took
an average of 10 pounds off each individual in the study. So when the pill company advertised its pill they

Some local fishermen on the Wolf River have found that the river has become infested with sucker fish.
These sucker fish are known to kill the catfish and bass that they fish. These sucker fish are also known to
be an invasive species and are using up other resources that the native catfish and bass need to live in the
river. The fishermen along with the Department of Natural Resources have decided to put a chemical in
the river is suppose to kill only the sucker fish. The sucker fish population did seem to decline. However,
they began to apply to the river and saw that some of the bass fish population started to die off, but it
wasn’t because of the chemical that was killing them. It was killing some of the river plants that the bass
feed on.

b. The River plants would continue to live and the Sucker fish would live.
c. The native Catfish and Bass would continue to live and the Sucker fish would die.
