Snowden and Boone take a laser-like focus on the situational framework in which organizational decisions are made. They note that the situational /contextual frameworks can often be complex and possibly fluid. They categorized the range of these decision frameworks from simple, to complicated, and complex, to chaotic. Using the knowledge gained from this course (and from these articles) Evaluate the often tried approach of adopting past solutions to similar problems encountered today. Is this a form of linear thinking or not? Why is linear thinking dangerous? Whether the application of the tools of rational economics lead to “better decisions”, across all contextual frameworks? What about human behavioral responses and organizational discipline in each of these frameworks? .

At least 250 words per question. Chapter 11 The Idea of Craft Asks the class to try to define the word “craft.” What items do the students associate with the word “craft”? Are these items cheap or expensive? Does it conjure images of utilitarian goods like vases, pots, and rugs or items that are meant to be appreciated as beautiful objects? What is the difference between fine art, decorative arts, crafts, and design? During the Renaissance, craft objects were degraded as mere handiwork, not designed for serious contemplation or for aesthetic value. This distinction did not exist in other parts of the world, such as in Japan where a teacup could be considered a priceless work of art. How did the Industrial Revolution impact attitudes towards crafts and design? Japanese Tea Ceremony The tea ceremony, a ritual performance in which the audience takes part, is a unique aspect of Japanese culture. The setting, the ceremony, the artwork, and the utensils are all supposed to conform to the principles of harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility, and wabi, the principle of quiet simplicity. Discuss images of the Japanese Tea Ceremony. Are these aforementioned aspects present in the ceremony and the design of the tools used? What is the significance of calligraphy in the ceremony? What is the significance of the floral arrangements? Chapter 13 Focus on the Figure This chapter contains a variety of figural artwork. Choose several images of figurative work, such as Justinian and Attendants, Walking Buddha, and Gislebertus, Last Judgment. How are the figures included in these works similar? How are they different? Are they realistic or naturalistic? What are the figures most prominent features? What is their purpose? What culture and/or time period are they from? How can you tell? What stylistic differences or similarities do you notice? What types of beliefs could be embodied by these figures? Justinian and Attendants Walking Budaaha Gislebertus, Last Judgment Chapter 14 Over on the Dark Side Lewis and Lewis refer to the Northern Renaissance as “The Darker Side.” What is meant by the dark side? What does it imply? The lack of images in Protestant churches is also referred to as the “darker side of the Reformation.” Does this imply that the liberal use of imagery and decorations in a church would be the “lighter side? .

At its core, pathology is the study of disease. Diseases occur for many reasons. But some, such as cystic fibrosis and Parkinson’s Disease, occur because of alterations that prevent cells from functioning normally. Understanding of signals and symptoms of alterations in cellular processes is a critical step in diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. For the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), this understanding can also help educate patients and guide them through their treatment plans. For this Discussion, you examine a case study and explain the disease that is suggested. You examine the symptoms reported and explain the cells that are involved and potential alterations and impacts. To prepare: By Day 1 of this week, you will be assigned to a specific scenario for this Discussion. Please see the “Course Announcements” section of the classroom for your assignment from your Instructor. By Day 3 of Week 1 Post an explanation of the disease highlighted in the scenario you were provided. Include the following in your explanation: The role genetics plays in the disease. Why the patient is presenting with the specific symptoms described. The physiologic response to the stimulus presented in the scenario and why you think this response occurred. The cells that are involved in this process. How another characteristic (e.g., gender, genetics) would change your response. I will be adding a discussion that will need a reply after. I will add 2 of them but at a different time depending on when they are availabe. Julia's discussion In this scenario, it appears that a 16-year-old boy had an allergic reaction to amoxicillin. While this is unfortunate and was probably unavoidable, the provider could have reduced the risk of a medical emergency by asking a few questions. Genetics is important as familial tendency to develop allergic conditions is thought to have a genetic link. In an article published in PubMed , the authors wrote “The allergic diseases are complex phenotypes for which a strong genetic basis has been firmly established.” (Ortiz & Barnes, 2014). It does not say in the scenario, but family medical history could have identified an increased risk for this child, but the order was most appropriate given the diagnosis of Strep throat and the available history. According to the required reading this week, the clinical manifestations of an allergic reaction are related to histamine being released into the body McCance, K. & Huether, S., 2019) . Acute allergic reactions are mediated by IgE antibodies and arises rapidly after exposure. Symptoms include hypotension, bronchospasm, angioedema (swelling), and urticaria (itching), all reported reactions in this scenario. Acute allergic reactions result from the immune system identifying a substance, in this case, amoxicillin as dangerous as a result of previous exposure (Bhattacharya, 2010). After exposure, there are antibody receptors for that substance in the body, another .

Assume that millions of generations ago, there was a species of rat that looked much like the picture given to the right. Members of this species were eventually isolated on different islands as geologic change occurred. Assume that over millions of generations your rat has evolved adaptations that are an advantage in the specific island environment described below. The purpose of this activity is to brainstorm how a species may evolved based on adapting to the environment and connecting species in the habitat to components in a ecosystem. Identify your habitat (or write the full description) in your PowerPoint so I know (e.g. Island 1 and copy and paste description). Design a rat that has adapted to the environment of the island, creating a new species of rat. Describe at least four physical adaptations (how it looks) and one behavioral adaptation (how it acts) and why they are beneficial to the rat. You can get 2 points extra credit if you draw your rat adaptations (this doesn't mean find a picture of a rodent that happens to look exactly how you want your rat to be, only 1 point if drawing is a very poor representation). Post photos of the island habitat, including island, water, plants, animals, etc. using real photos online. I should get a feeling of what your island description says. Post answers to “What’s on the Island?” based on your habitat. This means these are organisms in your habitat. The only liberty will be decomposers since most don't explicitly list something that is a decomposer. Directions: Just using the organisms in your Rat Island ecosystem (including the rat), give an example of each of the following: Note: If the organisms given don’t fit a certain category, state that and give a possible likely organism based on the ecosystem. Producer – Consumer – Predator – Prey – Scavenger – Decomposer – Abiotic factor – Biotic factor – Limiting factor – Description of Island: The island is fairly flat, with an occasional hill. The ground is soft dirt, and several species of shrubs grow towards the center of the island. There is no animal life on land; but the water is teaming with fish. The island is surrounded by a coral reef which keeps the predators out. The shore is sandy with no algal growth. Fresh water is available. .

Assignment Two to three pages When writing a report for a criminal investigative analysis, a criminal investigative analyst should always provide a foundation for any conclusion reached. Language that implies certainty, unless there is an evidentiary foundation for such certainty (i.e., DNA results), should be avoided. When discussing issues of motive and intent, care should be given to not cross into the legal concept of intent and to not comment on the ultimate issue that may be before a jury (guilt/innocence). The report should be professional and devoid of biases.

ASSIGNMENT: Respond to at least two of your colleagues by comparing the differential diagnostic features of the disorder you selected to the diagnostic features of the disorder your colleagues were assigned. Note: Support your responses with evidence-based literature with at least two references in each colleague’s response with proper citation in APA Format. Colleagues Respond # 1 Gender Dysphoria Transgender is the term used to mean that individual sex assigned during birth based on the external genital does not fit their gender identity. These kinds of people usually experience gender dysphoria, which is one of the psychological distresses associated with the incongruence between one's gender identity and the sex they were assigned during birth. Gender dysphoria usually starts at the beginning of childhood, but in some cases, individuals may not experience it until after puberty and even much later in their stages of life. People with transgender may pursue different domains of gender affirmation, which includes: surgical affirmation, medical affirmation, legal affirmation, and social affirmation (Lindley, 2020). Not all people with transgender issues will desire to have all these domains of gender affirmation as these are highly individual and personal decisions. Medical treatment for gender dysphoria Medical treatments for this condition may include hormone therapy, such as masculinizing hormone therapy or feminizing hormone therapy. Surgery includes masculinizing surgery or feminizing surgery, which intends to change chest or breasts, internal genitalia, external genital, body contouring, and facial features. Some people used hormone therapy to seek maximum masculinization or feminization. Other people find relief from gender dysphoria by using hormones to maximize secondary sex characteristics such as facial hair and breasts. These kinds of treatments are based on individuals' goals and the evaluation of the benefits and risks of the medication use, presence of any other conditions, and consideration of individual's economic and social issues (Zucker, 2018). Most of these gender dysphoria individuals find surgery the most effective and necessary procedure that relieves their condition. The World Professional Association for Transgender Health gives the following procedure for the surgical or hormonal treatment for people with gender dysphoria. 1. Persistent and a well-documented gender dysphoria 2. The capacity to make consent and an informed decision for the treatment 3. The aged majority of a given country and when the patient is young need to follow the standard of care for the adolescents and children. Behavioral health treatment This treatment aims to improve the individual's psychological well-being, self-fulfillment, and quality of life. This kind of treatment does not aim to alter an individual's gender identity, but it aims to explore gender concerns and find ways to reduce gender dysphoria. The main goal.
