Explain the important role played by peroxisomes. SUMMARY On these diagrams of plant and animal cells, label each organelle and give a brief statement of its function. Concept 6.6 The cytoskeleton is a network of fibers that organizes structures and activities in the cell What is the cytoskeleton? What are the three roles of the cytoskeleton? There are three main types of fibers that make up the cytoskeleton. Name them. Microtubules are hollow rods made of a globular protein called tubulin. Each tubulin protein is a made of two subunits. These are easily assembled and disassembled. What are four functions of microtubules?

9. To find the price of this bond, we need to find the present value of the bond’s cash flows. So, the price of the bond is: P = $92.50(PVIFA1.95%,32) + $5,000(PVIF1.95%,32) P = $4,881.80 10. The approximate relationship between nominal interest rates (R), real interest rates (r), and inflation (h) is: R r + h Approximate r = .039 – .021 Approximate r =.0180, or 1.80% The Fisher equation, which shows the exact relationship between nominal interest rates, real interest rates, and inflation is: (1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h) (1 + .039) = (1 + r)(1 + .021) Exact r = [(1 + .039) / (1 + .021)] – 1 Exact r = .0176, or 1.76% 11. The Fisher equation, which shows the exact relationship between nominal interest rates, real interest rates, and inflation, is: (1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h) R = (1 + .024)(1 + .037) – 1 R = .0619, or 6.19% 12. The Fisher equation, which shows the exact relationship between nominal interest rates, real interest rates, and inflation, is: (1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h) h = [(1 + .13) / (1 + .08)] – 1 h = .0463, or 4.63% 13. The Fisher equation, shows the exact relationship between nominal interest rates, real interest rates, and inflation, is: (1 + R) = (1 + r)(1 + h) r = [(1 + .116) / (1.053)] – 1 r = .0598, or 5.98%
Lesson 35 - The Impact of War II on Americans Pages 449-463 Section 1 - Introduction After the shock of the Pearl Harbor attack, many Americans wondered what would happen next. Would waves of Japanese bombers attack the West Coast? For months, rumors of an enemy invasion haunted the region.In time, the fears faded, but coastal communities remained wary. As it turned out, the United States was not immediately endangered by an enemy invasion. Yet, as President Franklin Roosevelt warned, the threat was real. If the Allies failed to stop the Axis powers, then one day Americans could personally experience the horrors of war in their own land. Roosevelt knew the war effort would require the enthusiastic backing of the American people in order to succeed. Millions of Americans would be needed to serve in the armed forces. Many others would help on the home front by working to expand the output of war materials. Everyone would have to make sacrifices in support of the armed forces. They would have to accept rationing—a system for limiting the distribution of food, gasoline, and other goods—so the military could have the weapons, equipment, and supplies it needed. As a result, life in the United States would change dramatically. These changes were evident in many ways, even in clothing styles. The armed forces needed fabric for uniforms. In March 1942, the government announced rules aimed at saving more than 40 million pounds of wool a year. Men’s suits could no longer be sold with a vest or an extra pair of pants. Cuffs were eliminated, as were patch pockets and wide lapels. The new rules also restricted the type and amount of fabric in women’s clothes. Designers cooperated by using more synthetics, such as rayon, and by making skirts shorter and dresses simpler. During the war, the entire country endure hardships, many extending far beyond being forced to wear plainer clothes. Yet the war would also offer new opportunities to countless Americans.

In making assessment decisions, it is firstly necessary to consider the range of evidence that can be generated by the various activities in relation to the performance areas and criteria. For example, in assessing teamwork, a wide range of evidence sources can be generated and used to make a valid assessment decision. These could include the following: Feedback from students (e.g., peer assessment) Lecturer observation of student interactions Questioning Meeting deadlines and objectives Students logs/journals For SP projects, the following generic types of assessment evidence are typically produced: Reports Progress reviews Logbook Scheduling documentation Engineering drawings Artifacts (e.g., models, prototypes, programmes, operating manuals, etc) Presentations Responses to questions (oral, written, etc.) Invariably, the greater the range of evidence sources that can be accessed (providing they are sufficiently valid and reliable), the more likely it is that we can make accurate assessments of performance.

That was so great last Christmas down there in Midhurst with the Cowdrays’ grooms. Those girls smell like horses and fuck like rabbits. There is nothing better than snow on the ground outside, trippy music and a house full of horny grooms.” “Talking of Tarts, as you were, how does Bryony do? Any signs of brain activity coming back?” “No mate – still a vegetable – fucking wicked what that cunt Banks and his crew did to her!” For a brief moment a real emotion clouded Dick’s face. “To knowingly run over a civilian with a fucking Range Rover full of his scum bag mates – what a cunt.” Dick said. “Now, now, Dick, be fair, he wasn’t to know she was out cold in the ditch when he decided to show-off the Range Rover capabilities – was he?” “Hold on, Charlie, we were told he did know, because he and his mates ‘gang banged’ her in that very spot. That cunt’s finished anyway good riddance is all I can say about that piece of shit. OK Charlie, when this job done we will book the guest cottage down in Midhurst – the Old Man is always pleased to see you for some unfathomable reason.” “OK Dickless, enough of the small talk, its 22:15 – let’s go to work!”

In 2013, overall satisfaction levels were higher for and internet users (71 per cent and 76 per cent respectively) than for mobile phones and VoIP users (69 per cent and 55 per cent respectively). Levels of overall dissatisfaction with these four types of communications services ranged from eight (internet) to 13 per cent (VoIP). Figure 3.10 Change in overall satisfaction with select communications services Note: Communications consumers are defined as having a fixed-line telephone and/or a mobile phone. The response category ‘Overall’ is not an average of all response categories. Respondents were asked a separate question about their overall level of satisfaction with each of the services identified. *Due to changes to methodology, the overall internet satisfaction data is sourced from the Roy Morgan Single Source, Apr–Jun 2013. Source: ACMA-commissioned survey May 2012 and May 2013. Satisfaction with communications service components Table 3.21 presents a summary of results from the 2013 satisfaction survey. Customer service—the levels of satisfaction ranged between 57 per cent and 59 per cent across all services. Dissatisfaction levels were also similar ranging between 14 per cent and 16 per cent. Service services recorded the highest levels of satisfaction (81 per cent) and mobile phone services the lowest (64 per cent). Mobile phone services also recorded the highest level of dissatisfaction (13 per cent). Call/service and line rental costs—the highest levels of satisfaction with call/service costs were recorded for mobile phone services (54 per cent) compared to 51 per cent for both fixed-line telephone and internet services. Both fixed-line telephone and internet services recorded the highest levels of dissatisfaction for service costs (19 per cent each). Line rental costs for fixed-line telephone services had the highest recorded level of dissatisfaction—32 per cent at May 2013—for all services and service components. Billing information—levels of satisfaction with billing information provided to customers were similar for the three main communications services, with 71 per cent for internet, 70 per cent for fixed-line telephone and 67 per cent for mobile phones. Dissatisfaction levels were also similar—10 per cent for both fixed-line and mobile telephone services and nine per cent for internet. Mobile phone internet access and internet data speeds—at May 2013, 56 per cent of consumers with internet access via their mobile phone were satisfied with their mobile internet access and 17 per cent were dissatisfied. In terms of internet data speeds in general, 56 per cent were satisfied and 18 per cent were dissatisfied.
Average propensity to consume (APC): Ratio between total consumption expenditure and aggregate income (C/Y). Marginal propensity to consume (MPC): Ratio between addition to total consumption expenditure and addition to total income (∆C/∆Y). It varies between zero and one. Diagrammatically show the consumption function, C = a + bY. Consumption function, C = a + bY Where; C is consumption expenditure; a is consumption (autonomous consumption) at zero of income and it remains constant; b is marginal propensity to consume (∆C/∆Y) or slope of consumption function; and Y is level of income. What is absolute income theory of consumption? Or, what is Psychological law of consumption? Prof. Keynes laid stress on the absolute size of income as a determinant of consumption and his theory is known as absolute income theory of consumption. He gave a psychological law of consumption which state that as income increases consumption increases but not by as much as the increase in income. In this theory of consumption, Keynes three points:
12. Why LM slopes upward to the right? This is because with higher levels of income, demand curve for money (Md) is higher and consequently the money market equilibrium (that is, the equality of the given money supply with money demand curve occurs at a higher rate of interest). This means that rate of interest varies directly with income. 13. down the equation for IS curve. Equation for IS curve: Y = 14. Write down the equation for LM curve. Equation for LM curve: r = (kY – ) 15. Problem: The following equations describe an economy: C = 10 + 0.5Y; I = 190 – 20r. Derive the equation for IS curve. Solution: IS describes the equation for product market equilibrium at various combinations of level of income and rate of interest. Y = AD = C + I Y = 10 + 0.5Y + 190 – 20r Y – 0.5Y = 200 – 20r Y (1- 0.5) = 200 – 20r ½ Y = 200 – 20r Y = 400 – 40r. Thus IS curve is: Y = 400 – 40r. 16 Problem: The following equations describe an economy C = 100 + 0.75Yd I = 50 – 25r T = G = 50 Where C is aggregate consumption, Yd is disposable income, I is aggregate investment. T is taxes, G is government purchases and r is the rate of interest. Derive the IS curve for the economy. Solution: Y = C + I + G
0.2Y – 5r = 120 5r = 0.2Y – 120 r = Y – 24 Hence, LM equation: r = Y – 24 (3) Equilibrium level of income and interest rate: Substituting the value of r in the IS equation we have Y = 1100 – 25r Y = 1100 – 25(Y – 24) Y = 1100 – (1Y - 600) Y = 1100 – Y + 600 2Y = 1700 Y = 850 Thus the equilibrium of income is 850. To obtain the equilibrium rate of interest we substitute the value of Y in LM equation and we get r = Y – 24 r = × 850 – 24 r = 34 – 24 = 10 Thus equilibrium rate of interest is 10 per cent. 20. Problem: Consider the following economy: C = 100 + 0.8Yd I = 50 – 25r G = T = 50 = 200 Md = Y – 25r 1. Calculate the IS and LM curves. 2. Calculate the equilibrium levels of output (national income) and interest.

to their independent ability to set standards through peer pressure, they are also given some degree of legal recognition under UNCAC. The following excerpt from the UNCAC Legislative Guide summarizes and explains the various mandated and recommended actions that, pursuant to Article 14, State Parties are to follow: Beginning of Excerpt _____________________________________ Summary of Main Requirements 138. Article 14 contains two mandatory requirements: (a) To establish a comprehensive domestic regulatory and supervisory regime to deter (para. 1 (a)); (b) To ensure that agencies involved in combating money-laundering have the ability to cooperate and exchange information at the national and international levels (para. 1 (b)). 139. In addition, pursuant to article 14 States must consider: (a) Establishing an FIU (para. 1 (b)); (b) Implementing measures to monitor cash movements across their borders (para. 2); (c) Implementing measures to require financial institutions to collect information on originators of electronic fund transfers, maintain information on the entire payment chain and scrutinize fund transfers with incomplete information on the originator (para. 3); (d) Developing and promoting global, regional and bilateral cooperation among relevant agencies to combat money-laundering (para. 5). Mandatory requirements: obligation to take legislative or other measures (a) Regulatory and supervisory regime 140. Article 14, paragraph 1 (a), requires that States parties establish a regulatory and supervisory regime within their competence in order to prevent and detect money-laundering activities. This regime must be comprehensive, but the precise nature and particular elements of the regime are left to States, provided that they require, at a minimum, banks and non-bank financial institutions to ensure: (a) Effective customer identification; (b) Accurate record-keeping; (c) A mechanism for the reporting of suspicious transactions. 141. The requirements extend to banks, non-bank financial institutions (e.g. insurance companies and securities firms) and, where appropriate, other bodies that are especially susceptible to money-laundering (art. 14, para. 1 (a)). The interpretative notes add that other bodies may be understood to include intermediaries, which in some jurisdictions may include stockbrokering firms, other securities dealers,
