1. How does a CAP differ from a single action potential? Single action potentials follow the "all or none" rule. That is, if a stimulus is strong enough to depolarize the membrane of the neuron to threshold, then an action potential will be fired. Each stimulus that reaches threshold will produce an action potential that is equal in magnitude to every other action potential for the neuron. Compound action potentials do not exhibit this property since they are a bundle of neurons

Social loafing occurs when an individual effort is reduced on a group project. The student must recognize that social loafing would have a negative effect on the group project. An example would be that it leads to poorer group projects because individual members of the group would not work as hard. Mental set is the tendency to approach a problem in a specific way, typically in a way that has worked in the past. It could have either a positive or negative effect on the group project. A group of

[b] Why are different materiality thresholds relevant for different audit engagements? Materiality is not an absolute concept but rather based on professional judgment. Therefore the materiality threshold will vary depend on the situation of the entities and different important audit areas of entities. [c] Why is the materiality base that results in the smallest threshold generally used for planning purposes?

Why are different materiality thresholds relevant for different audit engagements? This is because each industry has different risk and the risk is also depends on a company’s financial history. So the materiality threshold is on auditor’s professional judgment rather than an absolute concept. (c) Why is the materiality base that results in the smallest threshold generally used for planning purposes? The materiality base that results in the smallest threshold generally used for planning

Cochlear hearing impairment is often times associated with damage to one’s hair cells within the cochlea. The cochlea is a small, snail-shaped structure and it is one of the main organs of hearing and it is a part of one’s inner ear. When an individual has “cochlear damage” this means that a part (or sometimes all) of your inner damage has been damaged and/or hurt. Damage to the cochlea usually results in permanent hearing loss (and this type of hearing loss is known as sensorineural hearing loss)

1. Sensory Marketing Sample of perfumes [ Smell ] Music (in Zara – club music) [ Sound ] * Subliminal Messaging : Subliminal stimuli (pronounced /sʌbˈlɪmɨnəl/, literally "below threshold"), contrary to supraliminal stimuli or "above threshold", are any sensory stimuli below an individual's absolute threshold for conscious perception. Visual stimuli may be quickly flashed before an individual may process them, or flashed and then masked, thereby interrupting the processing. Audio stimuli may

In the scientific field, Parapsychology, the investigation of paranormal and psychic phenomena, is determined as pseudo-science. The difference between science and pseudo-science is pseudo-science is considered not genuine. In the article, Parapsychology: Science or Pseudo-Science, the explanation that Parapsychology is considered pseudo-science is researched based. The descriptive research method is the method that is used because it describes the difference between how science and pseudo-science

Q1)tlv The threshold limit value (TLV) of a chemical substance is a level to which it is believed a worker can be exposed day after day for a working lifetime without adverse health effects. Strictly speaking, TLV is a reserved term of the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH). However, it is sometimes loosely used to refer to other similar concepts used in occupational health and toxicology. TLVs, along with biological exposure indices (BEIs), are published annually
