1. Given that mitochondria are the “powerhouse” of the cell, how can Giardia survive and thrive
with reduced mitochondria? Be specific during the explanation.
2. Explain how the light detector and eyespot aid Euglena in meeting its nutritional
requirements. Be specific.
3. Paramecium has both a macronucleus and a micronucleus. What is the function of each of
these structures? Which one is involved in reproduction? What are the different methods of
reproduction that Paramecium can use?
4. The geometric appearance of diatoms is due to what structural compound? What are some of
the commercial applications for diatoms?
5. Describe how radiolarians use their threadlike pseudopodia to “feed.”
Solution
1.Giardia survives by eating anaerobic bacteria in these rich anoxic environments.They thrive in
anaerobic environments such as marine or freshwater sediments,salt,marshes,rumen,and
intestinal tracts of metazoa;some are parasitic.Giardia makes all of its ATP in the cytosol with
the help of simple anaerobic pathways.Several enzymes of Giardia’s ATP-generating machinery
contain Fe–S clusters,which are ubiquitous cofactors in the electron-transfer reactions involved
in ATP production.They are essential for the parasite’s survival.Eukaryotes that lack
mitochondria oxidize pyruvate with the O2-sensitive enzyme pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
(PFO).Like PDH,PFO yields CO2 and acetyl-CoA,but the electrons that are removed from
pyruvate are not transferred to NAD+ as in the PDH reaction,but rather to ferredoxin.The
resulting acetyl-CoA is further converted into a mixture of ethanol and acetate.
2.Euglena have an eyespot at the anterior end that detects light which helps the euglena find
bright areas to gather sunlight to make their food.The euglena\'s eyespot is not an eye,but it can
react to changes in the brightness of a light source.The eyespot is important because it helps the
euglena move toward light,the source of energy for photosynthesis.The intensity of visible light
determines the area towards which Euglenas swim,which always is towards the source of
light,i.e.towards the place where the light is more intense.Euglena can also gain nutrients by
absorbing them across their cell membrane,hence they become heterotrophic when light is not
available,and they cannot photosynthesize.

Microbiology - Algae
Algae is an informal term for a large and diverse group of photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms. It is a polyphyletic grouping that includes species from multiple distinct clades.
Algae are sometimes considered plants and sometimes considered "protists" (a grab-bag category of generally distantly related organisms that are grouped on the basis of not being animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, or archaeans).

Project Communications Management: Case Study
Several issues have arisen on the Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project. The person from the
HR department who was supporting the project left the company, and now the team needs more
support from that group. A member of the user group that supports the project is extremely vocal
and hard to work with, and other users can hardly get a word in at meetings. The project
manager, Tony, is getting weekly status reports from all of his team members, but many of them
do not address obvious challenges that people are facing. The team is having difficulty deciding
how to communicate various project reports and documents and where to store all of the
information being generated. Recall that the team members include you, a programmer/analyst
and aspiring project manager; Patrick, a network specialist; Nancy, a business analyst; and
Bonnie, another programmer/analyst.
Assignment – Project Communications Management: 3 Tasks
1. Prepare a partial communications management plan to address some of the challenges
mentioned in the previous paragraph.
2. Prepare a template and sample of a good weekly progress report that could be used for this
project. Include a list of tips to help team members provide information on these reports.
3. Write a one-page paper describing two suggested approaches to communicating with the hard-

1. Communications Management Plan
Prepared by: Joshua (me) Date: 3rd September 2015
This plan gives a detailed outline regarding communication and information exchange on the
Recreation and Wellness Intranet Project.
For collection and filing of information, all data will be stored on the intranet of the company, in
a seperate folder named Recreation and Wellness. Only members of the project and business
managers will have access to the folder.
Distribution structure - there should be a free and transparent flow of information amongst the
project members. .

Prove that a reversible adiabatic process cannot also be isothermal f.pdfjillisacebi75827
Prove that a reversible adiabatic process cannot also be isothermal for T > 0.
Solution
When a system with two independent thermodynamic co-ordinates undergoes a reversible
adiabatic change of state then we can specify one thermodynamic co-ordinate for the final state
but not two , because change in entropy = S2-S1= 0, i.e. S is fixed . Thus a reversible adiabatic
process can\'t be isothermal because such a process will fix both T and S and it is impossible..

Organophosphates are:
a. herbicides
b. insecticides
Dithiocarbamates are herbicides? True or False
Solution
True, because organophosphates are the reasons for many insecticides, herbicides, and nerve
agents. Organophosphate pesticides degrade rapidly by hydrolysis on experience of sunlight, air,
and soil, although small amounts is usually detected in food and drinking water. Their ability to
degrade made them a good looking substitute for the persistent organochloride pesticides.

How do contemporary economic geographers view the economy From a ge.pdfjillisacebi75827
How do contemporary economic geographers view the economy? From a geographers point of
view,
Solution
The geographers view the distribution of economic resources as the means of economic activity.
Industrial locations today are dependent on the geographical distribution of resources whether
natural or man-made. Though these resources, which impact the economy are highly unequally
distributed. Their point is that the whole of economy is dependent of the geographical
distribution of resources and ease of use and doing business in the geographical location.
The geographers view also consists of service based sectors in the economy such as those
commercial spaces where people uses internet and technology. The geographers view is to
change the conventional economy into a digital economy, where there are robust and dynamic
technological changes. Geographers are interested in the impact of the economic processes on
the geographic structure. For example impact of economic processes on spatial structures..

I am solving Rational Inequalities and I am a little confused about when I am supposed to change
the direction of the inequality sign. Is it when I divide by a negative number? If so, a negative

Solution
If we want to change direction of inequlity sign then we mulitply or divide by a negative number.
If we divide then either divide numerator or denominator ( any one) with negative sign..
How would your plates appear if you incubated agar when they were co.pdfjillisacebi75827
How would your plates appear if you incubated agar when they were contaminated? What about
if they weren\'t?
Solution
Ans. Incubating a contaminated plate shows microbial growth. Incubation of a sterile plate (no
contamination, no inoculation) shows no microbial growth.
In case of an inoculated plate- the contaminated plate (contaminated with microbes other than
those present in inoculum) show much rapid and outgrowth of many undesirable colonies. When
not contaminated, the same inoculated plate shows less number of colonies and clearly separated
(most often) colonies.
Sometimes it’s preferred to incubate inoculated plates as a control. The control plate serves the
following purpose-
I. Since this plate is not inoculated, there shall be no microbial growth on the plate after
incubation period. If so, absence of microbial growth on plate indicates that the all steps, from
media preparation to inoculation chamber, follows aseptic techniques and are reliable and
reproducible.
II. If an uninoculated plate show microbial growth, contamination has occurred at one or more
steps. Moreover, the cultural techniques adopted need to be recalibrated thoroughly..
Hormones are distributed throughout the body in blood and other body.pdfjillisacebi75827
Hormones are distributed throughout the body in blood and other body fluids. Why don’t all
tissues/cells
respond to all hormones?
Solution
The “endocrine glands” are ductless glands, which release the hormones into the blood and are
transported to a site distant from its origin where it produces its action. It is known as endocrine
signalling. Though the endocrine hormones travel throughout the blood, only specific tissues
respond to each hormone because hormones bind to specific receptors to produce physiological
effects. For example, the insulin released by pancreas binds to the insulin receptor. The
luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) acts on receptors prominent in
ovaries and uterus..

Describe the differences in the appearance of the sterile tube of Try.pdfjillisacebi75827
Describe the differences in the appearance of the sterile tube of Tryptic soy broth and the one in
which microorganisms are growing. Do the same for the slants.
Solution
Uninoculated or sterile Tryptic soy broth appears light amber and clear with no precipitates. If
microorganisms are growing in the broth, then it appears turbid with visible precipitates or
flocculates. Trypticase soy broth is an enrichment medium. It cannot be used for growing
fastidious organisms.
Sterile slants appear clear without any visible colonies. Whereas if microbes are growing, then
the colonies of the microbes can be seen on the slant..

As we entered the 21st century, the Human Genome Project, a massive collaborative effort by
scientists all over the world, reached the first stage of completion; we now have the complete
sequence of human DNA. What is the value of this information?
Solution
Human Genome Project (HGP) is one of the biggest genome projects completed. In this project,
the whole human genome is sequenced to identify all the genes. From the data interpreted till
now, it was concluded that humans share some set of genes with all other species.
Also, humans contain certain unique set of genes that are necessary for intellectual functioning
and the other unique characteristic of humans. However, sharing the genome with the all other
species indicates that all living organisms arose from a common ancestor.
The major goals of Human Genome Project are,
The data provided by the human genome project directs the scientists to identify the genes
associated with several of the diseases. Identifying the disease-causing genes and their
inheritance would be useful in designing treatment for these diseases..

Solution
question
Answer
explanation
16
d. controls its buoyancy
The swim bladder or air bladder: it is an inner gas-filled organ that adds to the capacity of
numerous hard fish (yet not cartilaginous fish to control their lightness, and in this way to remain
at their ebb and flow water profundity without wasting vitality in swimming.
17
c.have mammary glands
It is an organ situated in the bosoms of females that is in charge of lactation, or the creation of
drain. Both guys and females have glandular tissue inside the bosoms; be that as it may, in
females the glandular tissue starts to create after adolescence in light of estrogen discharge
18
d. haploid spores
Spores are normally haploid and unicellular and are delivered by meiosis in the sporangium of a
diploid sporophyte
19
B, opposable thumb
Primates : they are with completely opposable thumbs incorporate the Great primates (people,
chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans) and Old World monkeys
20
B . clitellum
clitellum: it is a thickened glandular and non-portioned area of the body divider close to the head
in worms and bloodsuckers, that secretes a viscid sac in which the eggs are stored. It is available
around 2 cm (0.79 in) behind the foremost end of the body (around the fourteenth, fifteenth and
sixteenth sections)

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

1. Given that mitochondria are the “powerhouse” of the cell, how can.pdf
1. 1. Given that mitochondria are the “powerhouse” of the cell, how can Giardia survive and thrive
with reduced mitochondria? Be specific during the explanation.
2. Explain how the light detector and eyespot aid Euglena in meeting its nutritional
requirements. Be specific.
3. Paramecium has both a macronucleus and a micronucleus. What is the function of each of
these structures? Which one is involved in reproduction? What are the different methods of
reproduction that Paramecium can use?
4. The geometric appearance of diatoms is due to what structural compound? What are some of
the commercial applications for diatoms?
5. Describe how radiolarians use their threadlike pseudopodia to “feed.”
Solution
1.Giardia survives by eating anaerobic bacteria in these rich anoxic environments.They thrive in
anaerobic environments such as marine or freshwater sediments,salt,marshes,rumen,and
intestinal tracts of metazoa;some are parasitic.Giardia makes all of its ATP in the cytosol with
the help of simple anaerobic pathways.Several enzymes of Giardia’s ATP-generating machinery
contain Fe–S clusters,which are ubiquitous cofactors in the electron-transfer reactions involved
in ATP production.They are essential for the parasite’s survival.Eukaryotes that lack
mitochondria oxidize pyruvate with the O2-sensitive enzyme pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase
(PFO).Like PDH,PFO yields CO2 and acetyl-CoA,but the electrons that are removed from
pyruvate are not transferred to NAD+ as in the PDH reaction,but rather to ferredoxin.The
resulting acetyl-CoA is further converted into a mixture of ethanol and acetate.
2.Euglena have an eyespot at the anterior end that detects light which helps the euglena find
bright areas to gather sunlight to make their food.The euglena's eyespot is not an eye,but it can
react to changes in the brightness of a light source.The eyespot is important because it helps the
euglena move toward light,the source of energy for photosynthesis.The intensity of visible light
determines the area towards which Euglenas swim,which always is towards the source of
light,i.e.towards the place where the light is more intense.Euglena can also gain nutrients by
absorbing them across their cell membrane,hence they become heterotrophic when light is not
available,and they cannot photosynthesize.
