productivity shocks are one of the most important factors that influence the firms ‘ decisions on he optimal consumption of production inputs. unobservable productivity shocks create selection and simultaneity problems causing biased estimates of production function by ordinary least squares. however, to estimate coefficients associated with production function by levinsohn and petrin technique...

An attempt has been made to assess the validity of applying the frictional and viscous coefficients of bulk water to the movement of water and solutes through the urinary bladder of the toad. The temperature dependence of diffusion of THO, C(14)-urea, C(14)-thiourea, and net water transfer across the bladder was determined in the presence and absence of vasopressin. The activation energy for di...
