SOUND POLLUTION EFFECT ON FISH MIGRATION RATE IN A TANK EXPERIMENT
ONYEOGULU TOCHUKWU ROWLAND Abstract: The marine industries have been on a large scale expanse and are likely to endanger the aquatic organism that sustains life on earth. These activities include increase naval traffic, offshore trawlers coming near shore, dredging, seismic activities, rigs and drill ship all of which generate noise, heat and vibration. The aim of this study is to create an experimental scenario of finding out the noise impact on fish fingerlings using the difference between the noise impact in tank and the control study tanks as index. The fish of choice is tilapia Hertrobrancus because of their relative abundance and tolerance in both ponds, fresh water and brakish water system. The experimental results show that fish fingerlings respond sharply to impulsive noise of pilling and blast even at low intensity and documented a p-value of 0.00 which is significant and an adaptation sequence of 2.5 if the sound source is not letal at the first instance, which is indicative of attenuation due to the stress of escape. Since migration is a function of locomotion, stress and exposure, it is deductive from existing sound impact studies that life risk, feeding rate, growth rate and reproduction is affected and to a large extent, extinction, if not well managed which calls for a close watch.

Oyinlade C. Ogundare, Adekunle Oladunni, O. Eleyewo, O.O. Shokefun Abstract: Drinks are common and alternative sources of energy and vitamins among all ages, but are sometimes associated with several health challenges. This work studied the phytochemical contents of Instant Powder drinks (Tang, Amila, Nutri-C, Eve cola, Sari- C and Kool 2go) and Energy drinks (Power Horse and London best) and the effects of their consumption on some biochemical parameters of male albino rats. The phytochemical screening of the drinks was carried out using standard methods. Total of forty- five male albino rats divided into nine groups of five rats per group were fasted daily for 12 h before oral administration of the tested drinks for 15 days, based on daily water intake of laboratory rodents. Animals were monitored for signs of toxicity and were sacrificed after 24 h of completion of the treatment. Blood samples were collected for biochemical examinations. Serum biochemical indices such as glucose, alanine amino tranferanses (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST), alanine phosphate (ALP), albumin (ALB) and total protein (TP) were evaluated. The tested drinks contain carbohydrate and lack many relevant phytochemicals. The administration of the drinks significantly (p<0.05) raised the body weight of Amila and Sari - C treated rats and caused abnormal elevation of blood glucose of Tang exposed rats. However, rats that were treated with Kool 2go, Sari - C and London best experienced a significant (p<0.05) increase in their liver enzymes. In conclusion, prolong intake of drinks such as Amila, Sari- C, Kool 2go, London Best and Eve cola should be avoided as this may cause damages to tissues including liver and pancreas.

The Influence of External Environment and Business Strategy on the Effectiveness of Management Accounting Practices: A Contingency Theory Perspective
Dr. Muftah Abugalia, Dr. Messaoud Mehafdi Abstract: This paper reports the results of a study of management accounting practices (MAPs) in a mix of organisations in Libya. The study explicitly focuses on the intervening role of MAPs in cause-effect relationships between external environment, business strategy and organizational performance. Regression results indicate that no single contingent variable has a significant effect on all types of MAP investigated. While budgets and performance measures are largely moulded by business strategy, the contingentness of costing practices in terms of external environment hostility is discernable, as is the mediating role of MAPs between business strategy and organisational performance. By discerning the individual impacts of the contingency variables of environment and strategy on organisational performance via MAPs (i.e. cost, budgets and measurement performance), this study gives a more in-depth understanding of these relationships and contributes to enriching our understanding of how MAPs can be adopted more effectively and efficiently from a contingency perspective, through identifying the impact of this relationship on organisational effectiveness in an emerging economy.
