– Note that these are two different forms of skin cancer.  Discuss why basal cell carcinoma is common, while squamous cell carcinoma arises in a fairly surprising layer of the skin.

Length: 300 words Most parents intend the best for their children. But do parents have a duty to avoid harming their children by passing on genetic or other diseases to them? What are the ethical implications of prenatal testing? Is it an ethical requirement or ethically problematic? Asch discusses how the attitude of trying to give a child the best chances in having a good life can be also seen as discriminatory against a group, namely, those with disabilities. Is that right?  How do the ethical questions change when the method of prenatal testing is no longer amniocentesis, but PGD?  We’ll especially consider that question with respect to sibling donors.

Parasympathetic and sympathetic activation are two competing effects of the autonomic nervous system. Many organs have dual innervation, allowing changes in a split second through chemical messengers. Your task is to discuss how the autonomic nervous system responds to changes in homeostasis and provide a comparison between autonomic and somatic nerves. You are making your way to your car when suddenly your overly friendly neighbor pops out from behind a bush and yells “Surprise!” Focusing on one organ with dual innervation -What physiological events are happening in your chosen organ as you are going about your normal morning routine? -How does being frightened by your neighbor alter the biological processes in your chosen organ? Be sure to include chemical messengers involved in inducing this change in the physiological state. -How do the two branches of the autonomic nervous system maintain homeostasis in your chosen organ? -Provide a brief comparison between autonomic and somatic peripheral nerve action.

Today, many of us have jobs that require us to stare at computer screens for hours at a time. That can put a real strain on the eyes. Adults aren’t the only ones affected. Children who stare at tablets or use computers at home and school can have eye issues, too. Write a one-page paper about eye problems caused by working with computers. Consider the following when researching this topic: How do computers affect vision? Can computers cause permanent damage to the eyes? What are the symptoms of computer eye strain? What changes can be made to the work environment to alleviate eye strain? Once complete, follow the instructions below on Saving Documents to Build Your Portfolio.

write a research paper on “the molecular diagnosis of a human disease related to rickettsia”. The sources must be used from biomedical literature scientifically published articles, please use pubmed.com.

Objective: The purpose of this project is to become familiar with reading and analyzing primary scientific journal articles. This project is also an opportunity to become more familiar with some of the major issues surrounding the field of microbiology. Description: Students will research a microbiological organism (e.g., P. aeruginosa), and present their findings to the class in a PowerPoint presentation format. The organism/pathogen may be bacterial, fungal, viral, protozoan, or helminthic in nature. I prefer that no two students research the same organism. Therefore, email me your choice as early as possible so that you can research your organism of choice. Project Paper Instructions: 1. Find four primary source articles from peer-reviewed scientific journals related to one of the topics covered in class (e.g., microbial metabolism) about your organism of choice. Any topic will do, but it should be a topic that is directly related to your microbe of choice. Anything other than a primary source will not be counted. 2. Read the articles and write a one-page summary of each article (i.e., four pages. Your one-page summaries should include, but not be limited to, a paragraph in which you discuss the relevance to current issues in microbiology (i.e., why does the research matter? What it means to you and to the world? – In other words, why should we care about this topic and the research that has been done?). You should also include other relevant information from the articles (e.g., why was the research performed, what are the hypotheses, what were the findings, etc.) 3. Compile your summaries into a single document. Each summary should be typed and double-spaced using Times New Roman 12 pt. font (APA or MLA) rather than handwritten. In addition to the four summaries, please include an overarching conclusion that ties your review of the primary literature together. Finally, please include a reference page with live links to the articles. Articles to be used: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs11274-019-2739-1 https://www.atsjournals.org/doi/full/10.1164/rccm.200408-1044SO https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2640238/pdf/9866731.pdf https://search-proquest-com.proxy098.nclive.org/docview/2305889997?pq-origsite=summon

For your final lab assignment, I would like you to pick a clinical condition (disease, syndrome etc) that interests you. First, explain what you know about the condition and the organ system(s) that are affected by this condition. Then explain how this condition is a departure from homeostasis. By studying Human Physiology over the past few weeks, what did you learn that allows you to better understand this condition?

History and prevalence of the microbe. Characteristics of the microbe including the environment of where the bacteria grows, what are the growth requirements (will it only grow on a certain medium? Is it a halophile? Is it a thermophile?) How is the microbe currently treated in hospitals? What about countries who may not have as well-equipped facilities as the United States? What is the current research on the microbe? Are there any interesting current advancements? Any other interesting facts about the pathogen. The paper must have the following to be considered complete: You must write at least 1000 The paper must be double spaced You must use a standard font, Times New Roman. Citations must include a Reference section and In-text citations. This is a research paper—you’ll have a lot of in-text citations. APA is preferred.
