Somatic cells contain two alleles for every gene, with one allele provided by each parent of an organism. Often, it is impossible to determine which two alleles of a gene are present within an organism's chromosomes based solely on the outward appearance of that organism.
Net Primary Productivity (NPP) is the amount of carbon uptake after subtracting Plant Respiration (RES) from Gross Primary Productivity (GPP). GPP is the total rate at which the ecosystem capture and store carbon as plant biomass, for a given length of time. NPP = GPP â RES.
The net multiplier measures the revenue required for each dollar of direct labor spent on projects. A net multiplier of 3.00 means the firm needs $3.00 of net revenue for each $1.00 of direct labor spent on project to cover project labor, overhead and profit. The target net multiplier is determined by the profit plan for the coming year. The âeffective net multiplierâ is the actual net multiplier achieved.
