The Journey to Sustainability
Prior to beginning work on this final paper, review all chapters of Bensel and Carbones Sustaining Our Planet text (2020)(CAN ATTACH IF REQUESTED). In this paper, you will explore what a future sustainable world might look like, and in the process of doing so, extend your previous descriptions of selected terms and explain how they may play a role in aiding us in achieving environmental sustainability on a global scale. The Journey to Sustainability Imagine a future (probably a long time from now) in which human beings have achieved environmental sustainability on a global scale. That means that we as a species have figured out how to maintain a lifestyle that can go on indefinitely. Humans will exist in harmony with their environment, not needing more resources than can naturally be replenished. What would such a world be like? How might we get there from here? In this final assignment, you will play the part of science-fiction writer, imagining and describing what a sustainable Earth, inhabited by humans, might look like in the distant future. You will need to provide examples throughout to support your descriptions. You should include all the terms that you have researched during Weeks 1 through 4 of this class (INVASIVE SPECIES, FARMERS’ MARKET, SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT, BIODIESEL), underlining each term as you include it. Be sure to expand on your terms. Provide as detailed a picture as possible of how that future world might function on a day-to-day basis. Your paper will consist of seven paragraphs using the format below to address the elements with the assumption that environmental sustainability has been achieved: Paragraph 1: Describe how the human relationship to nature will be different from what it is at present. Examine how humans will cope differently with the ways that natural phenomena like hurricanes affect lives. Paragraph 2: Describe what Earths biodiversity and ecosystems will look like in a sustainable future. Explain what humans have done differently to enable biodiversity and ecosystems to function sustainably. Paragraph 3: Examine how agricultural production will be different in a sustainable future. Paragraph 4: Differentiate between how humans will manage water resources (fresh water and ocean) in the sustainable future compared to how it is done now. Paragraph 5 Examine how humans will meet their energy needs in the future in a way that will enable maintenance of a sustainable, habitable atmosphere and climate. Indicate the changes that humans have made that are enabling them to maintain a healthy atmosphere and climate for all. Paragraph 6: Describe how waste management will be different in a sustainable future. Indicate the changes have been made to how humans think about and treat what is currently called waste. Paragraph 7: Summarize some of the major social, economic, political, and ecological choices and tradeoffs that will need to be overcome for this sustainable future to arrive. What are some of the major issues and challenges humans will have to face in order to achieve sustainability on a global scale? The Journey to Sustainability final paper Must be seven paragraphs in length (350 to 700 words) (not including title and reference pages) and formatted according to APA Style (Links to an external site.) Must incorporate all four of your previously selected terms (INVASIVE SPECIES, FARMERS’ MARKET, SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT, BIODIESEL). Include two scholarly sources including the course text. Must document any information used from sources in APA style

Vaccine Development
Part 1: Research article In this discussion board (DB), please post your original thread include the following in your discussion: Find at least 2 credible resources for vaccine development. The resource can be a video, government website, documentary, etc. Write the resources in APA format at the bottom of your original post. For example, you can research Polio, MMR, Hep B vaccine among many others that have already been developed and tested. Summarize the information you gathered. Questions you may want to answer in your summary: What was the vaccine for? Did this vaccine save a couple lives or countless? What would happen if this vaccine was not found? What was the timeline from development to general use for the public? What precautions should be taken? These posts need to be a couple of paragraphs and should not exceed a page (minimum of 250 words required for full credit of original post). Your original, first post must include the resource in APA format
Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis form a critical cycle of energy and matter that supports the continued existence of life on earth. In a 2-3 page Word document, describe the stages of cellular respiration and photosynthesis and their interaction and interdependence including raw materials, products, and amount of ATP or glucose produced during each phase. How is each linked to specific organelles within the eukaryotic cell? What has been the importance and significance of these processes and their cyclic interaction to the evolution and diversity of life?
Digestive System and Nutrition

IA Biology Design Proposal
please make sure when you do my background please make sure that the sources are cited underneath after you are finished writing the background. I would like for this whole thing to be revised so for the concentrations don’t make them percentages, and the methods cant be vague. This is for IB so I would like someone is familiar with the IB curriculum. For general procedures, please explain how I will use the materials to do my experiment better. Also please put me my name and period and ID number exactly as it is before.
Microscopy
A microscopy is a valuable tool that can be used to make observations about the microscopic world around us, and perform investigations that lead to amazing discoveries. There are many different kinds of microscopes and new types of microscopes and as well as modifications to old microscopy approaches are still being designed by scientists. Which type of microscope do you think is the coolest or in other words the most useful and efficient? Are there any limitations or setbacks using this kind of microscope? Provide evidence to support your choice. Additionally, investigate and share what kind of notable scientific discoveries were made using this kind of microscopic technique which wouldnt have been possible otherwise. Make sure to share the references that you selected your evidence from.
