    Task 3 Task A Explain how and why the office staff might feel uncomfortable if the actual values were outside the range of acceptable values identified in Task 1. In any office, the room can be too warm when working as a result of the amount of people in room and the number of computers and printers which are generating heat. An overheated office can result in employees feeling too warm which will leave them perhaps too tired or uncomfortable to work. In order to reduce the heat in the office so that maximum work can be carried out, a number of strategies can be deployed. For example, you could open a door, perhaps open windows or remove items of heavy clothing such as jumpers or jackets. However, if the office then becomes too cold once the above measures are carried out then this too will lead to poor working conditions as the employees may be uncomfortable and they may be unable to concentrate properly. Having well insulated rooms and buildings is extremely important nowadays, especially for cold winter days and early morning. This is so that the building is at the optimum temperature for work to be carried out efficiently. An office temperature above or below 21-23°C (69-73°F) as stated in task 1 is uncomfortable for the workers therefore it is important that the buildings are at these temperatures. External noise depends on what is inside the building. As the office contains a printer, shredder, and background noise from things such as; phones, work colleagues and…

Bush started making the case for an infiltration of Iraq in 2002."Iraq continues to flaunt its hostility toward America and to support terror," he said, adding that “states like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world.

What is wrong with my soil? The soil could either be hydrophobic or heavily compacted. Hydrophobic soil is where the surface tension does not allow for infiltration of water because of a waxy layer, which cause the water to form into little beads and can form a pool on the surface. Heavily compacted soil is soil that has…

    is defined as the infiltration of leukocytes across the blood brain barrier. Furthermore, this is mediated by the interaction of the CD11/CD18 integrin with the vascular adhesion molecule (VCAM-1). The blockage of the interaction of the CD11/CD18 integrin with VCAM-1 should reduce the infiltration. The study proposes a CD11 monoclonal antibody to block the interaction of CD11 integrin with VCAM-1. This blockage will lead to reduced infiltration. To test this hypothesis, the researchers used…

    The soil sample exhumed was identified as clay. The soil in that location was found to have high soil compaction with a high bulk density and particle density, and a low infiltration rate. This means that little water can penetrate through the soil and plant life unable to prosper. While little plant life can thrive, the level of soil compaction does make it ideal for constructing buildings as the soil is stable. With there being a level slope and little water infiltration there is little…
