Re-uptake involves the reabsorption of neurotransmitters by any of the neurotransmitter receptors or transporters. The transporters involved are usually of pre-synaptic neurons. Re-uptake occurs after the neurotransmitter has transmitted a neural impulse. Re-uptake is very crucial in order for the normal functioning of synapses to take place. This is because it allows the neurotransmitters to be recycled, thereby regulating their levels in the synapse. This in turn dictates the length of time it takes for a signal - generated by neurotransmitter release - to last. Neurotransmitters are usually large hydrophilic molecules that cannot pass through the neuronal membranes. For Continue reading...

Sensory Perception

The Nervous system plays an important role in many mammals including man. The nervous system is responsible for the coordination of different stimuli in the body. Environmental changes can be felt in the body due to the nervous system present. The sense of touch, vision, audition and taste can be understood solely due to the nervous system.
A minute change or deficiency in these senses could lead to fatality. A failure in perception of any of the senses makes an individual dependent. Sensory perception is essential for all living organisms and forms the basis for homeostasis.

Introduction

Theater is one of the oldest forms of entertainment in the history of mankind. Even the ancient Greek philosophers, Aristotle and Plato, argued about the nature and purpose of theater(Downs, Wright and Ramsey 7). Perhaps the reason behind its long lasting persistence is because theater is a complicated and multi-dimensional work of art that when done correctly can truly speak to the deepest parts of the human soul. But for it to be done correctly, multiple aspects should be taken care of. This paper will discuss three of those aspects, namely writing, directing, and acting.

My Vision of a Nurse Leader

The healthcare environment is constantly changing becoming increasingly more complex (Marshall, 2010). Nurse leaders can play a significant role in healthcare. The role of nurse leaders in healthcare is advocated for by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in its report titled “The future of nursing: Leading change, advancing health” and other organizations such as the American Nurses Association (Smith, 2011). Nurse leaders play diverse roles in organizations such as charge nurses and specialists. Previously, my vision of a nurse leader was limited to tasks performed by nurses in managerial positions. This perspective has, however, changed to include nurses in Continue reading...

Philosophy of Small Groups

What special insights did I gain from the readings?

Leadership is a skill that is developed through judicious application of power. I learned from Sharer that a leader goes through a lot of personal and corporate disappointments before making it. Effective use of power yields organizational success. I now understand that leadership is simply the effective utilization of various types of power to influence peers, subordinates and superiors towards a desired and noble ideal. Finally, visions and values give a human face to leadership.

Personal reflections

I know people are generally resistant to change. Now I understand that the panacea lies in the ability to influence and persuade fellow employees Continue reading...

The Indian book on political science ‘Arthashastra,’ authored by Chanakya says a king is someone who is not to please himself but his subjects, and that a king is a paid leader enjoying the resources of the Continue reading...

Question # 1

Summary
This sort of comparison also serves as a benchmarking tool. Due to the gap created, it is imperative to ascertain that the club is putting necessary efforts while establishing budget commitments to attaining the new desired level. Use of the symbolic automobiles to elucidate the strategic mission and vision statement of the club will result in a more modest agreement with regards to the clubs’ positioning after members of the board evaluate the projected costs. This gap directs members of the club to appraise its actual status rather than the ideal, and it demands for constructive participation by Continue reading...

These whiskers are deeply rooted in follicles in the muscle tissues rich in sensory nerves and cells connected to the brain. As such, the whiskers are important to the cats. These whiskers are scanning systems to detect items before the cats can touch them. Slight air movements cause vibrations of the whiskers, which send Continue reading...

Create a sense of urgency.
The case study shows that the Carly Fiorina the C.E.O was unable to create a sense of urgency. Dr. Kotter has listed this step at the top of his change strategy.

She seemed completely aware of the consequences if the merger does not take place. But she could not make realize, the staff of the company, how essential it is to initiate Continue reading...

- Introduction
“Change is inevitable” as most researchers and scholars argues. Organizations need to align the respective changes within their operational policy through a set dynamic framework.

The planned organizational change is termed as the process which moves organizations from a present state to a more desirable future state in relation to enhancing the organizational effectiveness. Through the different frameworks and models, organizations are able to conduct organizational Continue reading...

Close Reading: Analysis of The Story of Abraham (Genesis chapters 15-22)

“Fear not, Abram: I am a shield to thee, thy reward very much.” (Genesis15:1).

In his dream, Abraham had God telling him that he would never go back on his promise to reward or save those who believed in him. While Abraham was protecting his kingdom with all his heart and soul, he knew he was doing a service to God. He was so much involved in the protection of his subjects, that he hardly had Continue reading...
