Stephen and Dhanapal indicates that QWL also affects employees in the way they response to their work in terms of job performance, job effort, organization identification, job involvement, job satisfaction, personal alienation, intention to quit ...

Introduction

Contemporary studies view parties as alliances of politicians whose ultimate objective is to win electoral office. Parties make promises on behalf of their candidates about what they will do if elected, and help improve chances of reelection for incumbents through their records of implementing their programs (Bawn et al. 571). It is plain to see how these parties might serve democracy. Citizens can give more effective direction to government by voting for a party instead of an individual. They create an incentive for responsible governance by holding an entire party rather than a single politician accountable for government actions ( ...

MicroRNAs are small, single-stranded, non-coding, 16–29 nucleotide RNA molecules (approximately 22 nucleotides in length) comprising of an evolutionarily conserved class of endogenous ribo-regulators that regulate (modulate) gene expression (Wiemer, 2007, p.1529; Zhang et al., 2006, p.9136; Garzon et al., 2009, p.168). They were discovered in 1993 in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (Espinosa & Slack, 2006, p.131). Currently, 4167 miRNAs are listed in the miRNA registry and 474 human miRNAs have been identified (Wiemer, 2007, p.1530).

The miRNA genes are dispersed across the genome in gene clusters or as single genes. At least 50% of the miRNA genes are in ...

It was early in the morning, and everything in Abraham’s

and Eliezer, the faithful servant, accompanied him along
the road until he turned back again. They rode along in har-
many, Abraham and Isaac, until they came to Mount Mo-
riah. Abraham made everything ready for the sacrifice, calmly
and gently, but when he turned away and drew the knife,

Isaac saw that Abraham’s left hand was clenched in despair,

that a shudder went through his whole body — but Abraham
drew the knife.

Then they returned home again, and Sarah hurried to meet

them, but Isaac had lost the faith. Not a word is ever said of
this in the world, and Isaac never talked to anyone about
what he had seen, and Abraham did not suspect that ...

Retaining Careers Contribute to Child Well-Being and Future

Introduction
The purpose of this literature review is to assess various researches into the positive impacts of being a working mother, and to assess whether or not working mothers have positive impacts on their children’s well-being and future when compared to stay-at-home mothers. Evidence suggests that working mothers can serve as good role models and caregivers for their children in comparison to mothers who stay-at-home with their children (Figes 1) (Heinrich 122) (Sherman 1). The labor participation rate of mothers with underage children was almost 70 percent in 2013 (“Latest Annual Data”). These statistics suggest the importance and ...

Introduction

Bacteria are the very first life forms in the history of our planet. Since the beginning they were exposed to extreme changes of temperature, pressure, pH and nutrients; hence, to survive, they had to adapt themselves. One strategy of survival is to go into suspension or dormancy, by converting themselves into a seed form or spores. When conditions become normal, these spores germinate back to vegetative form. This property is also seen in pathogenic bacteria that infect higher animals such as humans. One such group of bacteria is from the Genus Bacillus.When exposed to stress, these bacteria go into ...

Brain size correlation

Literature Review
Research by scientists tends to show that there is disproportionate and sudden growth of brain during a person’s early years and autism. This seems to suggest that rapid excessive growth will likely prevent a child from making the necessary connections that guide one’s normal behavior. This research also indicates that adolescents and children who have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) have brains that are smaller in percentage when compared to those without ADHD (Haier et al. 2005). Science tends to support the phenomenon that with age, brains shrink. This however may not affect cognitive functions. ...

Notably Rovai (2002) argues that student sense of community refers to the feeling of belonging among people who are brought together by common goals and interests. The research undertaken by the various authors as expostulated in this paper takes a bias in assessing the role played by sense of community in the student fraternity and its overall effect on education and academic achievement. Drovin & Vartanian (2010) challenge the traditional view that direct face to face educational interaction is limited in terms of building a community of relations. Direct face to face educational set up is seen to be more ...
