Aperture has two primary effects: first, it regulates how much light is admitted through the lens, so it controls exposure. Second, it regulates the angle of the cone of light rays that are being focused; a smaller aperture results in a sharper image and greater depth of field.

What is aperature in a camera?
Aperture is the size of the hole that light has to pass through to get to the photo paper. An aperture with a small number would be a big whole and vice versa. In practice: If the shutter speed was high (short) the aperture would be low, meaning a large hole, so that the amount of light hitting the photo paper was correct. If the shutter speed was longer, the aperture would be a high, meaning a small hole, so that the correct amount of light met the paper... and not too much or too little. It is also how you control the depth of field in your photograph. Small aperture gives you a deep depth of field, and a large gives you an area of sharp focus. Hope that's slightly helpful!

What determines the shallowest depth in field in photography?
The largest aperture which is the smallest number on the aperture ring/dial generally anything between f1.2 - f5.6 dependant on the lens and zoom. On most consumer digital cameras the more you zoom in the higher the smallest aperture becomes. eg. Lens at 35mm, widest aperture (shallowest depth of field) generally about f2.8 Zoom in and the largest aperture will reduce to about f5.6

Explain the application of aperture in relationship to shallow and large depth of field. Use diagram or illustration to assist you in you explanation?
When a small aperture setting is used, such as f/11, a large depth of field will be achieved. One would use this, say, if they wanted to take a landscape photograph, and have most of the photo in focus. When a medium aperture setting is used, such as f/4, less of the photograph will be in focus, but not as much as if one were to use an aperture setting of f/1.8. A medium setting like f/4 could be used for a group photo. When a large aperture setting is used, such as f/1.8, a very small slice of the photograph will be in focus (shallow DOF.) This large aperture setting could be used for plant photography, macro photography, insect photography, etc.
