Need a reply 1 Amy Simons is an aunt to my mum. Amy passed on May 31, 2020, while surrounded by all her family members after a long fight with colon cancer; she was 48. On December 21, 1972, Amy Simons was born in Redbone, Alabama, to the late Hadley and Pauline Simons. According to the story I was told by my mum, Amy was a wonderful and selfless person. She was the third child of four after Christine Simons, Reuben Simons, and her older sister to Raphael. The majority of her childhood and teenage years were in Alabama before relocating to New York for her college education at New York University. During her term in the school, she met Joshua, whom they bore their first child Fredrick in 1990. She deferred for one year before resuming and completing her Human Resource Management degree. They got married in 1991, after which they relocated back to Huntsville, Alabama. They opened a bakery in 1993 and were well known by the local community. She gave birth to her second child Diana in 1995; during this period, she began complaining about stomach discomfort. The medical assessment resulted in her having an operation that corrected the issue. In 1999, the Simons family relocated out to Redstone, Alabama, where they resided until Joshua's premature death in 2016. After his death, she developed complications that were unidentified by numerous physicians. However, after consulting an oncologist in 2018, she was diagnosed with colon cancer. She underwent various sessions of chemotherapy and radiation therapy that extended her life. The affected parts of her colon were surgically removed, allowing her to recover without issue. However, cancer reemerged more aggressively; she died in hospital due to complications caused by the COVID-19 virus. Though her final months were trying and difficult, she maintained a positive attitude recognized by most community members who knew her. The notion was also shared by her doctors, who stated that she never complained and was always optimistic. Similar notions are expressed by the local law enforcement agents who were her close friends. Her baking skills further made her more popular, with the local police department being her primary market. Amy was a driven and steadfast mother and member of the Redstone community. Her actions were focused on ensuring her children had all their requirements before focusing on others. Her role as the local “mum” made the locals cherish her personality. Her baking skills intrigued and captivated people from various counties and states. With her demise, she leaves behind two children and five grandchildren. Fredrick Simons is aged 31 years, with three children: Jackeline Simons, Chloe Simons, and Ryan Simons. Her daughter Diana aged 26, is married to Geoffrey Green with two children Brenda Green and Brian Green. Amy’s main objective was to make her children and community happy; therefore, in memory of her desire, her bakery will host a commemo.

Need a one response for each discussion post in 50 to 75 words Discussion post 1 Payback Period: The payback period refers to the amount of time it takes to recover the cost of an investment. Simply put, the payback period is the length of time an investment reaches a break-even point. The desirability of an investment is directly related to its payback period. Shorter paybacks mean more attractive investments. The payback period is the cost of the investment divided by the annual cash flow. The shorter the payback, the more desirable the investment. Conversely, the longer the payback, the less desirable it is. Net Present Value: Net Present Value (NPV) is the value of all future cash flows (positive and negative) over the entire life of an investment discounted to the present. NPV analysis is a form of intrinsic valuation and is used extensively across finance and accounting for determining the value of a business, investment security, capital project, new venture, cost reduction program, and anything that involves cash flow. Internal Rate of Return: Internal rate of return (IRR) is the discount rate that makes the net present value of all cash flows (both positive and negative) equal to zero for a specific project or investment. IRR: What Is It Used For? The internal rate of return is used to evaluate projects or investments. The IRR estimates a project’s breakeven discount rate or rate of return, which indicates the project’s potential for profitability. Based on IRR, a company will decide to either accept or reject a project. If the IRR of a new project exceeds a company’s required rate of return, that project will most likely be accepted. If IRR falls below the required rate of return, the project should be rejected. IRR Formula? You can use the following formula to calculate IRR: 0 (NPV) = P0 + P1/(1+IRR) + P2/(1+IRR)2 + P3/(1+IRR)3 + . . . +Pn/(1+IRR)n Profitability Index Definition: Profitability index method measures the present value of benefits for every dollar investment. In other words, it involves the ratio that is created by comparing the ratio of the present value of future cash flows from a project to the initial investment in the project. The Profitability Index Method is often times compared similarly to the Net Present Value Method for their close proximity. One should use caution when utilizing both the NPV and profitability index methods in tandem. Often times, it has been found that both methods can rank projects in a different way. One project could possibly be ranked number 1 for one of the methods while it ranks dead last in the other. Use digression when using both in tandem. There is relationship between profitability index and net present value method. If profitability index >1, the NPV is positive. If profitability index <1, NPV is negative. The profitability index is a relative measure of an investment’s value while NPV is an absolute measure. Discussion Post 2 The payback period depicts the dur.

Nature GeNetics VOLUME 46 | NUMBER 10 | OCTOBER 2014 1 0 8 9 A suite of forces and factors, including mutation, recombination, selection, population history and gene duplication influence patterns of intraspecific genetic variation. Distinguishing which factors have shaped sequence variation across a genome requires extensive whole- genome sequencing of multiple individuals, which has only recently become tractable1. Most large-scale whole-genome resequencing studies have focused on model and domesticated species1–5. However, extensive sequencing of natural populations holds great promise for advancing understanding of evolutionary biology, including identify- ing functional variation and the molecular bases of adaptation. Recent work in a number of species has identified genomic regions that show signatures of positive selection, suggesting that such regions contain loci that control adaptive traits4,6–8. Relatively few studies, however, have combined genome-wide scans with phenotypic data to determine whether computationally identified selected regions influence adaptive phenotypic variation5,9–13. Genome-wide studies of large natural populations combined with phenotypic measurements are necessary to determine which factors shape patterns of genetic variation within species and, therefore, enhance understanding of adaptation. With large geographic ranges spanning wide environmental gradi- ents and a long history of research showing local adaptation14, forest trees are ideal for examining the processes shaping genetic variation in natural populations. Forest trees cover approximately 30% of ter- restrial land area15, provide direct feedback to global climate15 and are often foundation species that organize entire biotic communities and biogeochemical systems16,17. Clearly, biotic and abiotic interac- tions have influenced population sizes and distributions of forest trees, leaving diagnostic signatures in the genomes of present-day populations14,18,19. A deeper understanding of the evolutionary and ecological forces that shaped these patterns will offer insights and options for ecosystem management, applied tree improvement and accelerated domestication efforts20. Black cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa Torr. & Gray, is a dominant riparian tree that has become a model for the advancement of genome- level insights in forest trees21. The sequencing of 16 P. trichocarpa genomes revealed widespread patterns of linkage disequilibrium (LD) and population structure22 and extensive genecological studies have revealed a high degree of adaptive phenotypic variation in growth, vegetative phenology and physiological traits such as water-use effi- ciency and photosynthesis23–25, suggesting that local adaptation is prevalent. To date, candidate gene–association analyses have revealed loci with significant effects on phenotypic traits26,27. However, thus far there have been no publications describing whole-genome asso- .

Nature VS Nurture Research writing 310 Joi Tucker Wilmington University Nature VS Nurture Abstract Nature vs Nurture is one of the oldest arguments known to the Psychology genre. For those who do not know; simply put, the underlying question is, can behaviors be inherited? Initially, upon answering the question without any regard to the actual research and experiments done in this field a conclusion was drawn that Nature outweighs Nurture and that the behaviors of men are innate in that they are inherited genes that have influence over our behaviors. Upon further investigation and deeper insight, it is of my belief that the behaviors of men are based not solely on the behavior of their parents and their genetic makeup but also, by socioeconomic, traditional, educational, religious, and many other external factors. This paper will demonstrate the multiple schools of thought and their perspective on behaviorism, specifically when it comes to the argument of Nature vs Nurture. These perspectives will be used in order to justify the position that was previously stated, that the behaviors of men are influenced not only by their biology but also by their upbringing and multiple external factors. Nature versus Nurture is one of the oldest debates within Psychology. It is concerned with the extent to which aspects of behavior are a product of either inherited (i.e., genetic) or acquired (i.e., learned) characteristics. Previous to delving into this topic I took the stance that Nature outweighed Nurture and that human behaviors were innate in that they were solely influenced by one’s genetic makeup. After vigorous research on the topic an attempt to take the stance that aspects of behavior are a product of inherited characteristics. Most people no matter what their upbringing and socioeconomical positions are prone to specific types of behaviors due to their genetic makeup.
