Affirmative action, which took effect March 6, 1961, provides advantages for people of a minority group who are seen to have traditionally been discriminated against, with the aim of creating a more egalitarian society through preferential access to education, employment, health care, social welfare, etc. Affirmative action required that colleges, businesses, etc take the best qualified person without regard to race, religion, national orgin, gender, and race.

When an element decays what does it lose?
in alpha decay it loses a helium nucleus (2 protons, 2 neutrons)in beta decay a neutron converts to a proton and it ejects an electron and a neutrinoin gamma decay an excited nuclear state relaxes and a gamma photon is emittedin "k-capture" an inner electron is eaten by the nucleus converting a proton to a neutron and it ejects a neutrinothere are also a few other mechanisms.
What major cities are in the northern hemisphere?
There are many countries with many cities in the southern hemisphere.Australia: Canberra.New Zealand: Auckland.
In radioactive decay 81Rb is converted to 81Kr with the emission of X-ray photon What is the nature of decay?
I don't believe that this form of deay would directly form a X-ray photon. To go from 81RB to 81KR, a proton would need to be converted to a neutron - thus inverse Beta Decay. During this decay event, a neutrono would also be produced. Because the electron captured is in the inner shell, the atom is unstable. Thus, when the electrons realign in their respective shells, a high energy photon would then be produced. However, this photon is not the direct result of decay but is instead due to the atom returning to is ground state. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_capture
What is the main source of heat in the earth's core?
The heat in the inner core is the result of several different sources. Some of these are: residual heat from the creation of the planet; heat caused by nuclear decay; friction; magnetic and tidal effects.
What organizational change transferred inner cities into ghettos?
The development of public transport, especially rail, made daily commuting from the suburbs possible and led to most of the more prosperous people in the inner city areas relocating. As a result, the inner city areas became increasingly poor and also relatively cheap to live in. This a very general, simplified answer.
What has the author Robert R Brindle written?

What did socialist Michael Harrington describes in his book the other America?
"The Other America" by Michael Harrington describes the poverty of inner cities.
What are the major cities in the inner coastal plain?
Greenville and Goldsboro are some major cities in the inner coastal plain of North Carolina. Other cities include Clinton, Elizabethtown, Kinston and Roanoke Rapids.
Are street gangs a major problem in inner cities?
Street gangs can be a problem in some inner cities, often contributing to violence and criminal activity. While not all inner cities have a gang issue, those that do can experience higher rates of gang-related crimes and community disruption. Efforts to address the root causes, such as poverty and lack of opportunities, are crucial in combating gang activity.
Which was a major change in Northern and Western cities during the postwar years?
The economies of inner cities became more depressed.
Why is the temperature in the inner part of the earth very high?
Radioactive decay heating. The heavy isotopes settled toward the center of the earth early in its formation and many of those isotopes are radioactive, their decay produces heat.
Can you use poverty in a sentence?
Poverty is behind most crime in inner cities.
Why do most Australians live in cities?
Because the inner parts are mostly deserts.
What did the Kerner Commission do?
Created 2 million new jobs in the inner cities.
How was Earth's original inner heat created?
Mainly the heat is caused by radioactive decay, but there will be a small contribution due to gravitational pressure.
Why do most Australians live in coastal cities?
Because the inner parts are mostly deserts.
What has the author Anthony Coombs written?
Anthony Coombs has written: 'Improving our inner cities'
