What is the purpose of having these “holes”? What gases enter/ exit this hole? The guard cells control the size of the stomata by swelling and shrinking.

Directions: In this module you read about specialized cell types called guard cells. These cells are usually found on the bottom side of the leaf and control the size of stomata (“holes” in the leaf where gas exchange occurs). Think about the following questions in regards to these structures:

What is the purpose of having these “holes”? What gases enter/ exit this hole? The guard cells control the size of the stomata by swelling and shrinking.
What is the mechanism for the swelling and shrinking that take place here? (Hint: Guard cells are specialized cells that have a plasma membrane barrier and the ability to control the solute level inside/ outside of the cell.)
For your initial post, choose one of the questions above and discuss. Please make sure that you are contributing unique thoughts on whichever point you choose.

Would their organ system still be as efficient? Why or why not?

Identify an organism that lives within 50 miles of your home.

Locate a diagram of that organism that has the main organs and structures labeled. Be sure to properly cite your diagram and pictures.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper on this topic.

Briefly describe the environment (temperature, landscape, food sources, etc.) and describe the organism’s role in the environment.
Identify the structures and functions of the main organs found in your selected organism.
Explain how the organism in the diagram has evolved physiologically to become suited to its environment.
If the organism were to be transplanted to a significantly different environment, how would things change?

read the Spotlight on Society on page 177 of Chapter 8, answer all the questions at the end and add this one: Do you think this could ever happen in the US?

There are 3 parts of this homework.

Please read the instructions for each part carefully, and read the attachment (For Part B, use the decision making model form attached to put the anwers.)

Read the Chapter 8 attached here before doing the homework.

PART A: attached is the WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF which has 5 open ended questions that is attached (above) .This chapter covers many issues that YOU will face in the future. So, I think you should answer these questions about your opinion and what you might do. LIST ALL THE QUESTIONS IN THIS BOX, then answer each as YOU think you would act. ONE paragraph on each. “WHat would you do i”is below.

PART B: Read case study below and complete the decision making model attached TO put yourself in her place.(USE THE DECISION MAKING MODEL ATTACHED TO INPUT THE ANSWER)

Case: Martha Lawrence was very nervous when she went to the human genetics unit at the hospital. Her doctor had referred her because she was unexpectedly pregnant at age 41 and she was at risk for having a child with Down syndrome. She was 18 weeks (4+ months) which would not leave much time for an abortion considering the results of the amniocentesis takes 2 weeks.

Mothers of this age group have a 20 times higher chance of having a baby with a chromosomal abnormality (one more, one less or other).

Ms. Lawrence has had two other pregnancies that were normal. Her other children are 13 and 17. The genetic counselor, Dr. Gould, suggested an amniocentesis (removal of fluid from around the fetus) to determine the karyotype of the fetus.

The test showed that the baby did not have an extra 21 chromosome and therefore did not have Downs. But the sex chromosomes showed an abnormal karyotype of XYY, Jacob’s syndrome. Review what you know about XYY syndrome.

PART C: read the Spotlight on Society on page 177 of Chapter 8, answer all the questions at the end and add this one: Do you think this could ever happen in the US?

Your responses should be no more than a paragraph or two. Be sure to respond to another student’s post. Have your initial response done by the due date and your response done before the close date (two days after due date).

Prompt:

Identify and discuss the effectiveness of Jane Goodall’s message in her 2002 TED talk. She continues her tireless campaign, and some of you may have seen her give at talk called ‘Gombe & Beyond’ a year ago, last spring (April 20, 2016). Her message has stayed remarkably consistent over the years, as she has transitioned from pioneering primatologist to a more public figure and world advocate for conservation.
In concert with the two required short New York Times articles recently published, discuss effective ways we can raise consciousness about Goodall’s conservation efforts to a public that seemingly could not care less. How can we heed her words in everyday practice and inspire our peers and our children to become more aware about the marked similarities, and unique gifts our cousins provide, and the urgency we face in terms of their survival. How does conservation today relate to the primate fossil (or subfossil) record of the future? Will our conservation efforts, or lack thereof, affect how future anthropologists will study the primates that we know and love today? Feel free to bring outside examples into the discussion.
