This paper reports on research with 11 high school teachers in Durban and draws positioning theory to raise important questions the teaching of issues relating homosexuality bisexuality within sexuality education. Using data collected from classroom observations in-depth interviews, it demonstrates that related sexual diversity were most cases ignored or avoided by when did include aspects homosexuality, they took up positions endorsed idea 'compulsory heterosexuality'. I conclude paying...
This article, a critical review of module on heterosexism and homophobia, sets out the challenges to be overcome if oppressive conditions for lesbian, gay, bisexual students teachers in South Africa are changed. It draws evidence from student assignments, records participatory discussions notes authors, who taught module. The authors argue that methods used this course essential become agents change. However, these need linked clear coherent theoretical foundation enables draw links between...
When Xenopus eggs and egg extracts replicate DNA, replication origins are positioned randomly with respect to DNA sequence. However, a completely random distribution of would generate some unacceptably large interorigin distances. We have investigated the in sperm nuclei replicating extract. Replicating was labeled [(3)H]thymidine or bromodeoxyuridine geometry sites on spread examined. Most were spaced 5-15 kb apart. This regular provides an explanation for how complete chromosome can be...
In published studies, positive relationships between nucleotype and the duration of mitotic cell cycle in angiosperms have been reported but highest number species analyzed was approx. 60. Here an analysis is presented DNA C-values times root apical meristems comprising 110 measurements, including monocots eudicots within a set temperature range, encompassing 290-fold variation C-values. Data for seedlings grown at temperatures 20–25 °C were compared with (58 values 52 eudicots). Regression...
S ummary Seedlings of a zinc tolerant cultivar (Merlin) and non‐tolerant (S59) Festuca rubra L. were grown in aerated solution culture at various concentrations zinc. The elongation the longest root was much more inhibited by increasing Zn concentration S59 than Merlin. mitotic index meristem reduced to greater extent Merlin, whilst cell doubling time (estimated colchicine arrest) increased kinetics cycle determined pulse labelling experiment with low specific activity tritiated thymidine...
Although South Africa is one of the most progressive countries in world terms constitutional and legislative rights for LGBT individuals, education many social arenas where these ideals are not carried out. Interviews with 25 practicing teachers revealed very little description practice, but widely divergent understandings around sexual diversity that drew on various authoritative discourses, including religious teachings, educational policy, science, powerful human framework African...
The stakes are high for sex education in South Africa: it has been estimated that 8.7% of young people live with HIV. Within primarily US and UK contexts, there much debate over the relative merits abstinence-only comprehensive sexual programmes. These perspectives have largely presented as irreconcilable, but in-depth interviews 25 life orientation teachers across Free State Province Africa reveal may attempt to reconcile aspects two into a hybridised perspective. They promote abstinence...
AbstractPost-apartheid, South Africa has come a long way in making the inclusion of gender and sexuality equality explicit its Constitution. To make schools more inclusive for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex queer (LGBTIQ+) identifying learners, Department Basic Education developed what it claims are Africa's first guidelines regarding sexual orientation, identity sex characteristics (SOGIESC). Despite emphasis on post-apartheid policies, which set out to protect rights LGBTIQ+...
Health sovereignty – the assertion of rights to culturally and ecologically appropriate medicines ability communities structure their own healthcare is a biopolitical goal Rastafari movement. We examine how health enacted by herbalists in south London contributions these healers make UK, particularly for migrants disenfranchised "hostile environment" immigration policies. Using ethnographic data on "bitters" "roots tonics" we show herbal are used clientele achieve key political spiritual...
Abstract. The effect of Zn on vacuole development in root meristematic cells was examined three cultivars Festuca rubra : a Zn‐tolerant cultivar (Merlin), salt‐tolerant (Hawk) and non‐tolerant (S.59) order to determine whether or not related tolerance. Treatment with greatly increased the percentage apical meristem which were vacuolated all (7.01‐fold increase Merlin, 3.61‐fold Hawk 5.39‐fold S.59 over range 0–0.5 μg cm −3 ). Morphometric analyses electromicrographs indicated that total...
