Assignment: Write a short essay of about two typed pages, or about 1,000 words; 14 pt font; references, illustrations and/or data tables not included in the 2 pages) on the following topic. Think carefully about it. There is not really a correct answer, but a variety of opinions. I want yours.There have been many interruptions of the natural world by humans since they came to North America (at least 15,000 years ago). Among these are dams, highways, urban development, agriculture, industrialization; in the earlier history, over hunting of large mammals) you may think of many more. Choose one of the ways that humans have interfered with natural processes and landscapes, and discuss the nature of the interference and the effects of the interference. The interactions you describe can be from the Pacific Northwest, some place you have been, or maybe in your home town or city. It may involve big things (like coastal development broadly considered) or small things (over-pumping groundwater for a small town water supply). Describe the interaction, pro and con, take a position, and defend it. Is the interference on balance, and in your opinion, positive, negative or neutral?As with any opinion essay, you should start with a statement of the problem (your thesis). For example: Construction of dams along the Columbia River over the past 70 years has created conflict between farmers, fishermen and environmental activists. Then, in the remainder of the essay, develop and defend your thesis point-by-point in a logical way.Finally, finish with a strong concluding statement that expresses your views on the issue concisely. Columbia River dams have created economic benefits from agriculture and recreation that far outweigh the detrimental effects that they have had on salmon populations.Two pages is not a lot of space for an essay and there is an art to making a coherent argument in a short narrative. The purpose of this assignment is to help you develop skills related to effective argument in an essay.

Write an essay comparing both pathogenicity and virulence among microorganisms. Provide examples.
Show how microorganisms vary in both their pathogenicity and virulence using the opportunistic infections as examples.
Show how these characteristics influence the prevention and treatment for public health.
Formulate at least two innovative solutions for reducing the spread of infection in personal life and in public.
Prepare an outline of the final Project that you will submit for Unit 9.
The outline must contain the following:
Title of the paper
Reason why you chose this pathogen
Three (3) main ideas/points that will be discussed (you must include importance of plasmids in bacterial genetics and in genetic engineering)
Dear,
below you can find a document that consists of three articles on fashion sustainability. I have already written an abstract, actors identified, major problems, potential solutions/call for action/innovations.
But I would like you to write one page per article, with a more detailed abstract, actors identified, major problems, potential solutions/call for action and innovation that can be done Be careful that you do not repeat anything that I already wrote. It would maybe be good to merge what I wrote with an extra page per article of your analysis. Let me know if you have any questions. You can find the links to the articles in the document i will upload.
There are many opinions on the need and/or importance of vaccines in preventing the spread of disease. Our children are required to get vaccinations before entering school, and health care workers must have them when working in environments where they can come into contact with bloodborne pathogens. In health care facilities, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C (HCV) are the two more prominent infectious concerns for medical staff.
For your initial post, research the two diseases HIV and HCV. Based on your research, discuss whether you think that a vaccine will be developed for either of these diseases within the next ten years. Why or why not?
I’ve attached 9 readings in total and I’d like you to use 2 readings at least in the paper.
I also uploaded the lecture pdf file so I want you to go through what topic we cover in class.
Please check the attached file “Instruction”. all details available.

There are three question sets for this assignment:
1. The TESS observatory is adding new data and understanding to th esearch for extrasolar planets. Review the following graphs of transit data from TESS (and other observatories) and explain in your own words what the curve represents, answering the questions below (200 words 6 points).
What do the black dots represent?
What causes the dip in the center of each graph?
Why are the dips different shapes?
What is the difference between a narrow dip and a wide dip?
What is the difference between a shallow dip and a deep dip?
TESS light curves
2. “K2-315 b is a terrestrial exoplanet that orbits a M-type star. Its mass is 0.809 Earths and it takes 3.1 days to complete one orbit of its star.”
Explain the above sentence in your own words, as if you were talking to a 8 year old. Keep it very simple and understandable to someone without knowledge in this area. ( 100 words – 3 pts)
3. How many extrasolar planets have been discovered to date? (1 point)
Choose at least three organisms discussed in the videos and/or articles posted in this session and explain:
Where else in our solar system scientists think we might find these organisms
The evidence scientists use to make the argument that these organisms may exist on other worlds in our solar system
How these organisms could adapt to extreme conditions? For example, How do they metabolize nutrients into energy and how do they “breath” (respiration)? What mechanisms do they survive extreme heat or cold or pressure or radiation?
