Let K be a field, and G a finite group. G is said to be
K-adequate if there exists a division ring D, finite dimensional
over K, and with center K, such that G is contained in the
multiplicative group of nonzero elements of D.

The primary purpose of this investigation was to determine the
conditions necessary for the preparation of cell-free extracts of
nodule bacteroids capable of catalysing the reduction of acetylene to
ethylene and nitrogen to ammonia. Initial investigations were conducted
to determine whether intact soybean root nodules would reduce
acetylene to ethylene...

could be identified for college and university curriculums; what
differences existed between sample groups.
The instrument was validated through the Delphi technique....
