new disc for catherin Owns

this is regarding to my first message Thanks

information is included

 

please comment on this.

 

What information is included (and what is excluded or ignored) can have a tremendous impact on the overall result of a report or other business document.  As you can imagine, a fair and balanced look at a subject is generally preferred but in reality that is often not the way a situation like the presentation happens.  Instead, we fall prey to our own biases and often put more of an emphasis on the things that support our side while paying less attention (and putting less faith in) resources that do not support our claims.  This is particularly difficult when the “other side” has better support and seems to actually be a better choice.

 

So what is the choice class?  When we develop a presentation where we are attempting to persuade our reader to make a choice that agrees with our recommendation is it more important to be “right” or to “get it right” so to speak?  How does a well-placed image help us make this distinction?

Biology Article

Due Week 5 and worth 120 points

Use the Internet and / or the Strayer Learning Resource Center to research aspects of biology.

Select an article from a magazine or newspaper that has something in it that pertains to biology. This will serve as the “target article” for this assignment. For instance, you can select an article about medicine, invasive species, nature, conservation, genetic technology, ecology, or any other topic that is related to biology. One purpose of this assignment is to help you become aware of how biology is related to your everyday life.

Write a one to three (1-3) page paper in which you:

  1. Summarize the article in one (1) or more paragraphs, using your own words. Be sure to identify the article using an in-text citation in the body of the paper, as well as a reference in the reference section. 
  2. Explain how the article relates to this course. Identify which biological concepts from the course and / or text are relevant to the topic covered in the article. Citing the course text, discuss the ways in which this course does (or doesn’t) provide background information to help you understand the article and the larger issues surrounding it. 
  3. Explain why the article caught your attention. Relate the article to your life and to issues that are important to you. Discuss how or if the scientific knowledge about the topic covered in the article affects you directly or indirectly.
  4. Discuss your opinion on how research on this topic should be funded. State whether you think taxpayer monies should support research on this topic or whether such research in this area should be funded by the private sector. Rate the importance of research on this topic, relative to other areas of research. 

In addition to the target article, you should use at least one additional resource, such as your textbook or another article. You must have a reference section which contains an APA reference to your chosen article and all other sources. Additionally, you must provide in-text citations (in APA format) to your references in the body of the text. Integrate all sources into your paper using proper techniques of quoting, paraphrasing and summarizing, along with your in-text citations.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in biology.
  • Write clearly and concisely about biology using proper writing mechanics.

1 to 2 page

Write a one to two (1-2) page essay in which you:

  1. Identify the most important step in the student’s guide to research that you would need in order to analyze bullying.
  2. Define the identified critical step of research in your words.
  3. Explain how bullying relates to one (1) of the following topics:
    1. the agents of socialization (i.e., family, teachers and school, peers),
    2. formal organizations (i.e., conformity to groups),

The Aging Process

 

 

 

The aging process is a complex interaction of genetic and environmental factors; therefore each individual ages differently. For example, changes in body composition, body weight, and body systems are common effects of aging. It is essential for those who are aging to maintain a healthy lifestyle to reduce the risk of disease and infection. However, the end result of aging inevitably is death. Appropriate preparation for death contributes to well-being of family and friends and brings peace of mind to the dying.

 

 

 

For this Discussion, consider the impact of aging on personal health and wellness and the importance of preparing for death.

To prepare for this Discussion:

 

 

 

  • Review Chapter 14 in Health: The Basics, 10th edition. Pay particular attention to aging and preparing for death.

 

 

  • Complete the Chapter 14 Personal Health Assessment “Are You Afraid of Death?” in Health: The Basics, 10th edition.
  • Think about preparing for death.

 

 

  • Review the media “Dimensions of Health Wheel.” Select two dimensions of health and consider how the aging process might affect each of them.

 

 

With these thoughts in mind:

 

 

 

Select one of the two Discussion Questions.

 

 

 

By Day 4, post a brief description of the two dimensions of health you selected. Then explain how the aging process might affect those dimensions. Finally, describe one strategy you might recommend to improve or enhance the two dimensions of health you selected for someone who is aging.

 

 

 

OR

 

 

 

By Day 4, post an example of a situation in which preparation for death was either adequately planned or inadequately planned. Explain the results and the impact of those results on family and friends. Finally, explain how this situation might influence your own preparations for death and dying.
