Examples of firing in the following topics:
-
- Signal summation occurs when impulses add together to reach the threshold of excitation to fire a neuron.
- The net change in postsynaptic membrane voltage determines whether the postsynaptic cell has reached its threshold of excitation needed to fire an action potential.
- Spatial summation means that the effects of impulses received at different places on the neuron add up so that the neuron may fire when such impulses are received simultaneously, even if each impulse on its own would not be sufficient to cause firing.
- Thus, the neuron may fire when multiple impulses are received, even if each impulse on its own would not be sufficient to cause firing.
- If the EPSPs are strong enough to overcome the IPSPs and reach the threshold of excitation, the neuron will fire.
-
- Soil structure, oxygen availability, wind, and fire are abiotic factors that have influences on species distribution and quantity.
- Fire is another terrestrial factor that can be an important agent of disturbance in terrestrial ecosystems.
- Some organisms are adapted to fire and, thus, require the high heat associated with fire to complete a part of their life cycle.
- For example, the jack pine, a coniferous tree, requires heat from fire for its seed cones to open .
- A fire will probably kill most vegetation, so a seedling that germinates after a fire is more likely to receive ample sunlight than one that germinates under normal conditions.
-
- Early efforts in urban reform were driven by poor conditions exposed by tragedies such as the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire.
- The fire caused the deaths of 146 garment workers, who died from the fire, smoke inhalation, or falling or jumping to their deaths.
- The company's owners, Max Blanck and Isaac Harris, who survived the fire by fleeing to the building's roof when the fire began, were indicted on charges of first- and second-degree manslaughter in mid-April; the pair's trial began on December 4, 1911.
- The union also became more involved in electoral politics, in part as a result of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire.
- The fire had differing effects on the community.
-
- Major Anderson, unaware of the Star's
approach, declined to fire on the Confederate batteries.
- On
Friday, April 12, 1861, at 4:30 a.m., Confederate batteries opened fire, firing
for 34 straight hours on the fort.
- No attempt was made to return the fire for
more than two hours.
- The firing continued all
day.
- The Union fired slowly to conserve ammunition.
-
- At lower blood pressures, the degree of stretch is lower and the rate of firing is slower.
- When blood pressure rises too high, the baroreceptors fire at a higher rate and trigger parasympathetic stimulation of the heart.
- When blood pressure drops too low, the rate of baroreceptor firing decreases.
- If blood is returning to the right atrium more rapidly than it is being ejected from the left ventricle, the atrial receptors will stimulate the cardiovascular centers to increase sympathetic firing and increase cardiac output until homeostasis is achieved.
- Increased blood pressure results in increased rates of baroreceptor firing, whereas decreased blood pressure results in slower rates of fire, both initiating the homeostatic mechanism to restore blood pressure.
-
- Suppose you knew that the mean number of calls to a fire station on a weekday is 8.
- since the mean is 8 and the question pertains to 11 fires.
-
- To be fired is generally thought of to be the employee's fault, and therefore is considered in most cases to be dishonorable and a sign of failure.
- Often, it may hinder the new job seeker's chances of finding new employment, particularly if he or she has been fired from earlier jobs.
- Job seekers sometimes do not mention jobs which they were fired from on their résumés; accordingly, unexplained gaps in employment, and refusal to contact previous employers are often regarded as "red flags. "
- Firms that wish for an employee to exit on his or her own accord but do not wish to pursue firing, may degrade the employee's working conditions, hoping that he or she will leave "voluntarily" .
- An employee may be terminated without prejudice, meaning that the fired employee may be rehired readily for the same or a similar job in the future.
-
- Sometimes these changes are induced by environmental disturbances such as volcanoes, earthquakes, storms, fires, and climate change.
- Thus, even when areas are devoid of life due to severe fires, they will soon be ready for new life to take hold.
- After the fire, however, these trees are no longer dominant.
- Eventually, over 150 years, the forest will reach its equilibrium point where species composition is no longer changing and resembles the community before the fire.
- Secondary succession is shown in an oak and hickory forest after a forest fire.
-
- In modern developed nations, the term "public services" includes sectors, such as electricity, fire services, gas, law enforcement, military, environmental protection, public housing, public transportation, etc.
- For example, the local fire department is an institution with the mission of servicing the community .
- In modern, developed nations, the term "public services" includes sectors, such as electricity, fire services, gas, law enforcement, military, environmental protection, public housing, public transportation, etc.

- In the animation, are three scenes, in the first scene is an animation depicting the phrase ‘tell me and I will forget. ' The learners are being told how to use a fire extinguisher by the Fireman and they promptly forget while trying to recollect the information.
- The learners are being shown how to use the fire extinguisher and when the learners again try to recollect the memory is not so clear.
- The learners are practicing how to use a fire extinguisher by following a modeled example from the expert (Fireman) and finally they understand.
