...Due date: ___________________ Name ___________________________________________ Plate Tectonics Exercise (20 points) PLATE BOUNDARIES There are three different types of lithosphere plate boundaries associated with different types of topographic features and tectonic activity. These are: Divergent boundaries (also called “spreading centers). At divergent boundaries, plates are moving apart. The most common kind of spreading center is the midocean ridge where new ocean floor is created. Spreading may also take place within a continent. In this case, blocks of crust may drop down as the land is pulled apart, creating a rift valley. Convergent boundaries These boundaries involve collision of lithosphere plates, which may occur in three different circumstances. 1. Oceanic – continental plate convergence. If the edge of an oceanic plate collides with the edge of a continental plate a subduction zone is formed. The denser oceanic plate subducts (plunges) beneath the continent, producing a deep oceanic trench. As the oceanic lithosphere descends, partial melting of the rock along the contact zone occurs. The magma that is produced rises toward the surface and produces a chain of volcanic mountains on the land mass parallel to the collision boundary, such as the Andes in South America. 2. Oceanic – oceanic plate convergence. In this case, subduction also takes place. A deep ocean trench forms along with a chain of volcanic islands. An example of such an island arc is the Aleutian...

...facilities located in Missouri and produces and provides chain-link fencing to customers throughout the Midwest (Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and Iowa) via rail car. ZOU Fencing sells chain-link fencing to customers under free on board (FOB) shipping point terms. Therefore, revenue is recorded when goods are shipped from the respective warehouse. ZOU Fencing currently uses a sophisticated warehouse management system (the Warehouse K-Series System), which allows the Company to (1) record sales upon shipment of goods out of the warehouse, (2) automatically price fence sales on the basis of standard pricing tables, and (3) generate multiple reports for the evaluation of ZOU Fencing’s operations. Engagement Team Note: Materiality was determined to be $5 million. At year-end, the engagement team evaluated the internal controls related to revenue. This evaluation was done through inquiries of appropriate personnel and consideration of the results of other audit procedures including: (1) updating the risk assessment procedures (including the understanding of internal control) and substantive procedures, (2) considering the result of the entity’s monitoring of controls (or our testing of the entity’s monitoring of controls), and (3) obtaining an update on the status of the entity’s remediation of any significant deficiency or material weakness identified as of the interim date. As a result, the engagement team arrived at the conclusion that there have been no significant...

Completeness. No. No. Control #1: Sales are automatically recorded and invoices are automatically generated upon the release of the order in the Warehouse K-Series System. Orders are not released until the goods have been confirmed for shipping in the system (which occurs when the goods are scanned as they are loaded in the shipping area). No. Identification of risk of misstatement ("what could go wrong") Relevant assertion Significant risk? Risk of material misstatement because of fraud? Control activity that addresses risk of misstatement Does the control rely on information produced by the entity (or IPE)? If yes, list relevant information N/A Will we obtain audit evidence of the accuracy and completeness of information produced by the entity by testing controls or by performing procedures directly on the information? Is the control automated? Relevant application system (if we are testing information produced by the entity through tests of controls or the control is automated) Yes.

...production by bacterial biocontrol agents Jos M. Raaijmakers ∗ , Maria Vlami & Jorge T. de Souza Department of Plant Sciences, Laboratory of Phytopathology, Wageningen University, Binnenhaven 5, 6709 PG Wageningen, The Netherlands (∗ Author for correspondence) Abstract Interest in biological control of plant pathogens has been stimulated in recent years by trends in agriculture to-wards greater sustainability and public concern about the use of hazardous pesticides. There is now unequivocal evidence that antibiotics play a key role in the suppression of various soilborne plant pathogens by antagonistic microorganisms. The significance of antibiotics in biocontrol, and more generally in microbial interactions, often has been questioned because of the indirect nature of the supporting evidence and the perceived constraints to an-tibiotic production in rhizosphere environments. Reporter gene systems and bio-analytical techniques have clearly demonstrated that antibiotics are produced in the spermosphere and rhizosphere of a variety of host plants. Several abiotic factors such as oxygen, temperature, specific carbon and nitrogen sources, and microelements have been identified to influence antibiotic production by bacteria biocontrol agents. Among the biotic factors that may play a determinative role in antibiotic production are the plant host, the pathogen, the indigenous microflora, and the cell density of the producing strain. This review presents recent advances in our...

...REPORT SEMINAR ON CONTEMPORARY ISSUE TOPIC - SERVICEMARKETING Submitted to: AMANPREET KAUR LOVELY INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT REPOTER: Dinesh kumar Reg. No. 10901690 Roll no-B50 What is a Service “A service is an activity or benefit that one party can offer to another that is essentially intangible and does not result is the ownership of anything. Its production may or may not be tied to a physical product.” Example- Education institute Internet service provider Health care service “A service is economic activity that creates value and provides benefits for customers at specific times and place” Economists have divided all industrial and economic activities into three main groups: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary activities include agriculture, fishing and forestry. Secondary activities cover manufacturing and construction; tertiary activities refer to the services and distribution. In the pre-industrialised era, primary activities were the mainstay of the economy. The Industrial Revolution marked the beginning of increasing importance of secondary activities and the gradually decreasing the status of agriculture and allied activities. The period following World War II saw USA become the world’s first ‘service economy’ with more than 50 per cent of the working population employed in producing services and today 80 per cent of the US economy is service-oriented. This led a New York...

He is booked under the Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act, 1987 (“TADA”). Then follows a journey of torture, judicial delays and a long period of incarceration. It is during his time in prison that Shahid chances upon Ghulam Nabi War and Professor Saxena, who wean him away from the ‘radical’ and dodgy inmates, and push him towards completing his education. Upon his release, Shahid obtains his law degree and enters the profession which would end up defining his short life.
