The Ionic mechanism and propagation of action potentials. The action potential is the result of a large‚ sudden increase in sodium permeability of the membrane. The resulting rush of sodium ions into the membrane and accumulation of positive charge on its inner surface drives the potential towards Ena. This is followed by repolarisation‚ whereby there is a large increase in the membranes permeability to potassium ions‚ hence the membrane returns to Ek. Explanation of the (ionic) mechanisms underlying

We discuss the ‘hard’ effects on GE employees (strategy‚ structure‚ employment‚ rewards) and the ‘soft’ effects (culture‚ work climate‚ indoctrination). In parallel with the French

One proposed reason for this harsh reality of high poverty rates is globalization - the growing integration of economies and societies around the world. The claim that globalization generates poverty has been the focus of many debates for the last twenty years‚ including the debate between Carlos Caretto‚ Gillian Crowl‚ Steve Grossman‚ and Annie Wong on February
