Summary of Section 8 Eukaryotic DNA is compacted through a hierarchical series of events, from nucleosomes to 10nm and 30 nm fibres, then through further stages to the chromomena fibres, which are attached to scaffolds to form loops. In preparation for mitosis, these fibres are further compacted to prevent physical damage. Chromosomes within the interphase nucleus occupy defined regions. DNA within the eukaryotic interphase nucleus is in a dynamic
Make your conference work You can make a big difference to the effectiveness of any conference, and to your tutor group conference in particular.

New technology developments can make this access easier, but they can also raise new barriers. These barriers can often be removed by considering the needs of disabled users when designing and implementing electronic or online educational materials.

Introduction This unit looks at communication systems where devices are the main players, passing information to and from each other and possibly acting on that information to produce some kind of outcome. In these interactions, people may not be involved at all, or may have roles that are limited only to the initial setting of schedule (such as when certain tasks should be performed) and parameters (such as particular conditions that should be satisfied before a task is performed). Some people may 5.1 The interview as a selection method: pros and cons Traditionally, the interview has been the main means of assessing the suitability of candidates for a job.
