Short-distance Transport of Resources

Short-distance Transport of Resources

Short-distance transport refers to transport that occurs over a distance of just 2-3 cells, crossing the plasma membrane in the process. Small uncharged molecules, such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water, can diffuse across the plasma membrane on their own. In contrast, ions and larger molecules require the assistance of transport proteins due to their charge or size. Transport across membranes also occurs within individual cells, playing a variety of essential roles for the plant as a whole.

Ecological Niches

Ecological Niches

All organisms have a position within an ecosystem. The complete set of living and nonliving factors—including food resources, climate, and terrain—that define the position of a given organism are collectively referred to as the organism’s ecological niche.

Production Efficiency

Production Efficiency

Net production efficiency (NPE) is the efficiency at which organisms assimilate energy into biomass for the next trophic level. Due to low metabolic rates and less energy spent on thermoregulatory processes, the NPE of ectotherms (cold-blooded animals) is 10 times higher than endotherms (warm-blooded animals).

Energy Budgets

Energy Budgets

Organisms must balance energy intake with the energy required for growth, maintenance and reproduction. These trade-offs result in a variety of survivorship and reproductive strategies, including semelparity and iteroparity. Semelparous species, like annual plants, have only one reproductive episode in their lifetimes and consequently have short lifespans. Iteroparous species, by contrast, have many reproductive events during their lifetimes but have relatively few offspring. These two...

Optimal Foraging

Optimal Foraging

How animals obtain and eat their food is called foraging behavior. Foraging can include searching for plants and hunting for prey and depends on the species and environment.

Limiting Reactant

Limiting Reactant

The relative amounts of reactants and products represented in a balanced chemical equation are often referred to as stoichiometric amounts. However, in reality, the reactants are not always present in the stoichiometric amounts indicated by the balanced equation.

Area of Science:

Nursing Education
Higher Education Administration

Background:

Doctoral nursing programs face faculty shortages and resource limitations.
High-quality education is challenged by these constraints.

Purpose of the Study:

To present the Nursing Education Exchange (NEXus) as a solution for resource sharing.
To detail NEXus's origins, evolution, financial aspects, and implementation.

Main Methods:

Overview of the NEXus collaborative model.
Presentation of growth metrics and course offerings.
Inclusion of four exemplars and a recent collaboration.

Main Results:

NEXus has grown significantly since 2007, with 20 member schools by 2015.
Currently offers over 160 courses across 14 clusters.
Formalized collaboration with the National Hartford Centers of Gerontological Nursing Excellence.

Conclusions:

NEXus provides an optimal resource-sharing model for doctoral nursing education.
It addresses faculty shortages and financial constraints effectively.
Facilitates faculty preparation for an aging population.
