The great lakes have experienced anthropogenic effects over the last decades. a) Describe two effects on the great lakes that have been observed in the last 50 years; b) Explain how these effects were initiated, and c) Comment on how or if these effects can be mediated or resolved Solution The natural environment suffers from many harmful practises of humans and the system of the Great Lakes is no exeption. Two effects on the great lakes which have been observed in the last 50 years are : 1. Mercury pollution 2. Pesticide pollution These effects and causes are described below. 1.Mercury pollution - The Great Lakes are natural resource providing drinking water,employment, food and transportation to more than 35 million people, including one-third of the Canadian population and one-tenth of the U.S. population. It is the largest freshwater system in the world and contains about 84 percent of North America’s fresh surface water. Any type of pollution will effect a large amount of population and especially mercury pollution. Causes : - Initial causes were mostly due to the discharge by the industrial units which used merury. They directly drained into the lakes. But now these sources have been controlled. Now the main source of mercury pollution is emission and deposition. The different industries in the Great Lake basins which vause emissions are coal-fired power plants and eletri arc furnaces. After mercury is emitted to the atmosphere, it eventually returns to the Earth’s surface in a process termed atmospheric deposition. Deposition is categorized as wet deposition (i.e., mercury deposited in precipitation), dry deposition (i.e., mercury deposited as gas and particles), and litterfall (i.e., mercury that is incorporated into the needles and leaves of plants, which eventually fall to the ground as the foliage is shed). Litterfall is considered a component of dry deposition. The harmful effects of mercury pollution result from the exposure of organisms including humans to methylmercury, a highly toxic compound that biomagnifies in aquatic food webs to concentrations that can reach levels several million times higher than those in water. Mitigation or resolution - Few mitigation steps could be :- a. Monitoring of mercury and research b. Lower Regulatory Thresholds for Major Mercury Emission Sources c. Require Best Available Control Technology for New and Modified Sources d. Mandate Mercury Emissions Reporting 2. Pesticides :- Pesticides can contain a variety of toxic chemicals. These chemicals can benefit our society and can also be very harmful too. Historically, pesticides have been extremely useful to society. Pesticides can prevent harmful diseases and help kill pests from farmed crops suffering. Pesticides have been known to causing harm to humans, animals, and the environment. The toxic pollutants that are harming the Great Lakes are human-made organic chemicals, also known as pesticides. Causes : The primary reason for water pollution in .

The given curve is rotated about the y-axis. Find the area of the resulting surface. y = 5 - x^2, 0 = x = 3 Solution we get a paraboloid when we rotate y=5-x^2 when we consider an elemental ring on the surface it has radius r=x,and length dy so the area of elemental ring ds=2*pi*r*dl=2*pi*x*|dy| we have dy= -2xdx so ds=4*pi*x^2 dx integrating form 0 to 3 gives surface area =4/3 * pi *(27-0)=36*pi.

The Genetics and IVF Institute conducted a clinical trial of XSORT method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. 325 babies were born to parents using the XSORT method, and 295 of them were girls. Use the sample data with a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that with this method, the probability of a baby being a girl is greater than 0.5. Does the method appear to work? Solution H0: p1=p2 HA: p1?p2 In this problem p1 will refer to girls. Test statistic = z = 3.01 P-value = 0.003 Conclusion: Since the P-value is smaller than alpha, we reject the hypothesis that the two population proportions are the same. The statistical evidence suggests that the XSORT (girl) methodology is superior to the xSORT (boy) methodology. NOTE THAT WE DIDN.

The Ponzi terms was evolved and termed on the name of Charles Ponzi , who in the early tweenth century , it was seen that a way to profit from international reply coupons . The said international coupons were a guarantee of return postage in response to an international letter. Chrles Ponzi visualized that he could legally make money , by swapping out these coupons for more expensive postage stamps in countries where the stamps ere of higher vaues. He promised to investors 50% profit in a few years and the bubble were bursted. In the similar Ponzi scheme Mr. Madoff took the money from the new investors to pay earning for existing customers. Bernie Madoff started in the investment business by legally buying and selling stock not listed on the New York stock Exchange (NYSE), started in 1960 as a sole proprietorship he served as a whole seller between institutional investors.

In addition to he helped an government backed seat in the advisory board. Peters niece, Shana Madoff also joined in this bandwagon of prosperity as a compliance officer of this firm and she married to Eric Swanson , a former SEC compliance officer, and the girl was christened with \"Girls Scout \"and also\"Woman of Distinction\". with the respectable team of his family, Mr Madoff stated his guilt in the year 2009 and his famous strategy was \"split strike conversion\"and his \"Red Flag\" would have been the fact that he would have overtaken the market had he traded the options in the volumes necessary to meet his financial goals. Jeffry tucker was an attorney for 8 years at the SEC , and he also faciliteted the meeting between the Fairfield Greenwich Group and Madoff resulting in the loss of $ 7.3 billion as a sinle biggest loss.

The following topics should be included in your key understandings and take-away for this week. What do you know about these topics? Definition of group Formal vs informal groups Tuckman’s stages of group development Groups as open systems Characteristics of effective groups Advantages and disadvantages of groups Advantages and disadvantages of decision making in groups Social facilitation, synergy, social loafing, Norms, cohesiveness, impact of different combinations of these. Definition of team Team building process Different team roles Advantages/ disadvantages of teams Types of teams (High performing, self managing, etc) Homogenous and heterogeneous teams Types of team building/ approaches to team building Difference between groups and teams Solution .1. A collection of individuals who have regular contact and frequent interaction, mutual influence, common feeling fcamaraderie, and who work together to achieve a common set of goals. 2. Formal Groups- Formal groups are created and maintained to fulfill needs or tasks which arc related to the total organisation mission. Thus these are consciously and deliberately created. Such groups may be either permanent in the form of top management team such as board of directors or management committees, work units in the various departments of the organisation, staff groups providing specialised services to the organisation, and so on; or the formal groups may be constituted on temporary basis for fulfilling certain specified objectives. When such objectives are fulfilled they disappear. These may be in the form of temporary committee, task force, etc. The working of formal groups is regulated by organisational rules and regulations. Informals Group- Informal groups, on the other hand, are created in the organisation becausc of operation of social and psychological forces operating at the work-place. Members create such groups for their own satisfaction and their working is not regulated by the general framework of organisational rules and regulations. Thus formal and informal organisations differ from each other in the following respects: 1. Origin—As discussed above, reasons and circumstances of origin of both formal and informal organisations are quite different. The formal groups are created deliberately and consciously in the organisation by the framers of the organisation. On the other hand, informal groups arc created because of the operation of socio-psychological forces at the workplace, that is, people while working together develop certain liking and disliking for others for the type of interactions not provided officially. 2. Purpose—Since formal groups are deliberate creation, they are created for achieving the legitimate objectives of the organisation. In fact, formal groups are basic product of formal ogranisation structure. The informal groups are created by organisational members for their social and psychological satisfaction. Thus they serve the purpose of organisational members wh.
