Biology

It was briefly mentioned that habits, good or bad, learned early in life around food may continue into adulthood. Eating and mealtimes are important in the home environment, and also affect our values related to food, practices, preferences, and more. Reflect on these topics that were covered this week and your own habits, preferences, behaviors around food as an adult. How do you think that these current habits, preferences, values, etc have been shaped by your own childhood OR marketing? Reflection: Childhood behaviors and their influences on current food behavior submit a 1-page (double spaced) thoughtful reflection on how these factors have affected your dietary behaviors.

3 biology PowerPoint every 6-15 slides each one slide must include 5 multiple choice questions You will also notice that  PowerPoints are missing for, # 8, #10, and #12.  This will become one of your  2 assignments!   You will compose the  PPTs that you think are needed for 8,10,12. So if you work through  TOXTUTOR…….you  should very  comfortably be able to put together what YOU  think would be the PPT  necessary to teach the material in each of those 3 sections. I  would expect  PPTs to be anywhere from  6-15 slides, depending upon the significance of the material presented by TOXTUTOR.  Also, include one slide with  5  multiple-choice questions ( with an indication of the correct answer ) which you feel appropriate for each of those 4 sections.  THIS  WILL BE  Assignment #1     I   suggest  that  you  get  through  this material  and construct  the PPTs with  quiz  chapter 8………..https://toxtutor.nlm.nih.gov/08-000.htmlchapter 10……….https://toxtutor.nlm.nih.gov/10-000.htmlchapter 12……….https://toxtutor.nlm.nih.gov/12-000.html

Discussion Board 2: Genetics/Evolution For each board, please choose one question to complete the main post. The main post must be AT LEAST 300 words. The post must be related to one of the topics presented. Discussion Board 2: Genetics/Evolution. For each board, please choose one question to complete the main post. The main post must be AT LEAST 300 words. The post must be related to one of the topics presented by your instruction found below. Please make sure that all of the information that you use to complete your post is from your textbook. If you choose to use sources outside your book you are required to cite and reference in APA format. Discussion topics can be updated periodically.1. There were several pre-Darwin explanations of evolution. Choose one from your book and compare them to the accepted Darwin theory of Natural selection.2. Choose any genetic disorder from your book. Discuss the cause (ex: insertion, deletion, inversion, translocation, or whole chromosome issue), signs, symptoms, and degrees of the disease.3. Choose a trait that goes beyond Mendel’s one trait inheritance. Discuss the inheritance (ex. Incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, polygenic, pleiotrophy, linkage, environmental influences), the different phenotypes, or anything else that deviates from simple genetics.

Answer the following TWO questions in 300 words or less. You may choose to divide the questions into two responses or fold the two questions into one essay response. Cite both our text and the Frontline piece OR the NYT piece about supplements in your discussion. INCLUDE A REFERENCE LIST in APA format.What is your understanding of opinion and fact.  How are opinion and fact about supplements explored in the Frontline or NYT piece?Choose ONE of Ruggerio’s 6 Key Principles for Thinking and explore how the scientists look at the issues.Our skill sets as health professionals.What is an issue that may come up in your current (or goal) health care profession area that could involve an issue of opinion/fact?How do your clients/patients/customers rely on your judgment?One of the key principles for thinking https://platform.virdocs.com/r/s/0/doc/539114/sp/26921538/mi/98452097?cfi=%2F4%2F8

PAPER TOPIC FORM on TEXTILE Object dated 1800-1950IDENTIFY the title of the artwork/artist/textile that you chose. Include a small digital image with this form.Who is the artist and maker’s country? It’s OK if unknown.Where is the artwork located today?Date of object: (must be between 1800-1950)What website did you find? (What museum or class PowerPoint?) Provide link here:What interests you in this textile object? Why did you choose it? What are you interested in finding out?  For example, are you interested in craft practice? Ceremonial use? Daily use? Dyes? Process of making? Cultural community – the function of the object? Reuse? Recycle? Technology?Do you have a thesis statement idea? (optional but useful)Write a short Formal analysis – 12 font, double spaced, about 8-12 sentences, include the date, country where made, artist name.Finally, Create a short power point with a) related images, b) “label” info about the textile/object, c) your short formal analysis (description), d) thesis slide (what question is driving your research?), e) research bullet points f) connect it to modern period or other idea you think important?  – So basically, your Final Project Power Point should be about 6 slides – its ok to have it be in the range of 5-8 slides.

CLASS IS MICROBIOLOGY: Watch the 2 videos below, comment and describe the life cycle of the malaria parasite Plasmodium spp. https://youtu.be/MxiWp8vkRFI https://youtu.be/qvlTOhCmxvY please let me know if you do have access to the links above, thanks! 🙂

-The Signature Assignment is a requirement for BIOL 1610. -Discuss in detail, using information from credible sources (.edu, pubmed, or .org, not .com). Be aware that some .org sources are not scientifically supported and may have erroneous information. You must have at least 3 sources. Any information taken from textbooks must be minimal and cannot be counted as one of the 3 minimum required sources. -Reflect on the significance of that in your life (i.e. why does it matter to you and/or how it will personally apply to you). -The font must be Times New Roman, size 12, 1 ½ or double spaced, with 1-inch margins. The length should be 3-5 pages. Diagrams or pictures may be used, but the text excluding those must be at least 3 pages. -You must cite all sources, using APA for citation. All direct quotes must be noted as such! When using information from a source, but in your own words, it must be cited in the text as well as in the bibliography. If an illustration, diagram or photograph is protected by copyright, you must obtain permission to include those in your paper. This is usually granted by emailing the copyright owner. You will then include “used with permission” by the diagram, etc. in the context of the paper.
