According the United States (U.S.) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2015 influenza and pneumonia combined were the 8th leading causes of death (55,227 deaths in total) and the only communicable diseases ranked among the top ten killers in the U.S. What were the 10 causes of mortality in the U.S. in 1900 and 2015? Since communicable disease caused a relatively few deaths in the U.S. in 2015, why should public and public health professionals be concerned about them anymore and devote resources in their prevention and control? Solution Top 10 leading causes of deaths in US: Hearts diseases Cancer Airway diseases which are non infectious Cardio vascular disorders Accidents Alzheimer\'s disease Diabetes Pneumonia or influenza Nephropathys Suicide. The period of communicability is less for the communicable diseases, hence they are prevention of disease in early stages is possible. Prevention and control of influenza: Good ventilation of public buildings Encouraging sufferers to cover their faces with a handkerchief when coughing and sneezing Stay in home at the first sign of influenza Vaccination against the influenza, may be killed or level attenuated vaccines Prevention of exposure to influenza strains by hygiene practice Antiviral drugs like amantadine or rimantidine used Prevention and control of pneumonia: Pneumococcal pneumonia vaccination, PPV 23 AND PCV7. Education of mother to observe the sings of pneumonia. History taking and clinical examination are very important for management Physical examination for, breath count, chest indrawing, listen for stridor, wheezing and for severe malnutrition, cyanosis Any signs detected, they are treated early by antibiotics and other measures Improving the primary medical care services and development..

Natural History of Influenzas
The influenza virus was once called the Spanish Flu. This was because at the end of May 1918, the King of Spain, King Alfonso XIII, was the first to openly admit that a new disease had emerged in their country (Mamelund, 2017). But the disease did not originate in Spain. Other countries during that period throughout Europe including the United States were experiencing the so called “Spanish” Flu. Since World War I, much has changed in terms of understanding the flu and the origination of infectious disease. It is now known that the Flu is caused by a virus. Statistical studies since 2000 have found that higher mortality rates occur among the poor in comparison to the more affluent (Mamelund, 2017). People who are more susceptible to influenza are those who have poor nutrition, live in overcrowded areas, have secondary infections like pneumonia and other diseases (Mamelund, 2017).
Presenting Symptoms of Influenza
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Influenza is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. It can cause mild to severe illness and even cause death (Influenza, 2018).
Fever or feeling feverish/chills
Cough
Sore throat
Runny or stuffy nose
Muscle or body aches
Headaches
Fatigue
Some people may have vomiting and diarrhea (More common in children than adults)
Outbreak characteristics
According to the CDC, people who have the flu are most contagious in the first 3 to 4 days after infection. People who are healthy can start infecting others, 1 day before symptoms develop and up to 5 to 7 days after getting sick (Influenza, 2018). In addition, some people can have the virus, have no symptoms and spread it to others.
The World Health Organization’s Global Influenza Surveillance and Response System was established in 1952 (Influenza, 2018). The purpose is to reduce the spread of infection by vaccines. Based on the surveillance system, Influenza activity in the United States remains low throughout the summer months and early October. Outpatient illness surveillance: The proportion of outpatient visits for influenza-like illness remained low and was 1.4% which is below the national baseline of 2.2%

Tracking Food Poisoning Around the World
It’s wrong to say that food poisoning is not as big of a concern as cancer, heart disease, or any other health condition. In Australia, for instance, it’s a standard medical issue: an estimated 4.1 million Australians get afflicted by food-borne illnesses each year. That’s about 11,500 people coming down with food-borne illnesses daily. And throughout the world, it’s largely the same thing.

Since communicable disease caused a relatively few deaths in the U.S.pdf
Since communicable disease caused a relatively few deaths in the U.S. in 2015, why should
public and public health professionals be concerned about them anymore and devote resources in
their prevention and control?
Solution
The task of public health professionals is to prevent any disease outbreak in future. If these
people stop devoting resources to communicable diseases, then disease may restart their work of
spreading. This is because most communicable diseases are food-borne. And changes in food are
occurring all around the globe. If public health professionals will ignore this part, then certain
pathogens may move in to the population unknowingly.
It is important to note that if a pathogen enters the population, then it will become a outbreak
immediately in the US. This is because of decreasing immunity due to increasing health, hygiene
and life expectancy. The people are more susceptible to pathogenic attack.
A pathogenic attack can be air-borne, water-borne or sexually transmitted also. Any type of
attack will soon become an outburst over there. Therefore, public health professionals need to be
extremely vigilant and devote more resources than their counter part countries on prevention and
control..
The Challenges of Global Health
Global health is the health of populations in the global context;
It has been defined as "the area of study, research and practice that places a priority on improving health and achieving equity in health for all people worldwide".Health is a state of physical, mental, and social well-being in which disease and infirmity are absent. Global health practices can respond to some of the major health responsibilities such as non-communicable diseases (heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and chronic respiratory diseases) or injuries that occur in varying degrees in many countries, no matter how advanced.
The guidelines set out the principles and practices that government can look at when making laws and regulating food programs. Inequality affects the health of the world.
The future of global health is at risk and needs urgent strategies. Also, technology is contributing at a vast pace to overcome the various health challenges all over the world.
For prevention of non-communicable diseases(NCD):
Ban all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion, and sponsorship.
Restrictions on the availability of retailed alcohol.
Replacement of trans fats with polyunsaturated fats.
Scale-up early detection and coverage starting with very cost-effective, high-impact interventions.

The Process of Infection
Disease-causing agents called pathogens are found in air and food and on nearly every object or person.
An epidemic is a disease outbreak that affects many people in a community or region at the same time.
A pandemic is a global epidemic of a disease.
When a pathogen is virulent, it is strong enough to overcome host resistance and cause disease.
One becomes immunocompromised when the immune system is impaired.

Routes of Transmission
Direct contact: kissing or touching an infected person
Indirect contact: touching something that the infected person has touched
You may also autoinoculate yourself by transmitting a pathogen from one part of your body to another.
Animal-borne (zoonotic) infections are spread by domestic and wild animals.
Interspecies transmission is rare but does occur.

CHAPTER 13 WORKING WITH PEOPLE WHO LIVE WITH HIV AND AIDS THE P.docx
CHAPTER 13 WORKING WITH PEOPLE WHO LIVE WITH HIV AND AIDS: THE PROBLEM AND HUMAN SERVICES
WM. LYNN MCKINNEY
As a human service worker, you are almost certain to have clients who are people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and persons living with AIDS (PWAs). This is true because AIDS affects people of all ages, sexual orientations, and ethnic and minority groups and because the needs of PWAs and people living with HIV are numerous and span virtually all human service programs. Because AIDS is an illness, there are medical needs. Since most PWAs eventually must stop working, they have income needs. The number of children who have HIV is growing, and these young people may have educational needs. For several reasons, there are likely to be psychological and social needs.
First of all, AIDS occurs primarily in people younger than fifty, which means that PWAs must deal with a fatal illness at an early age. Second, AIDS is found mainly in marginalized people such as homosexual men, injection drug users, and racial and ethnic minorities. Still another reason that PWAs may have psychological needs is that many of them will have many friends who are seriously ill or who have died. The effects of such losses are potentially enormous. Thus, the entire human service system is involved in working with people living with AIDS and HIV. So, as you enter the field, it is important that you know about HIV and AIDS and society’s reactions to the disease.
Working with people with AIDS and HIV presents particular challenges. Many people with this illness will not have close ties with their families who may have turned their backs on what is perceived to be a social embarrassment. Most will be poor, some because they were poor when they became sick and others because the disease is impoverishing. Death from AIDS-related causes can be horrible; the diseases and infections that affect a PWA can leave people thin and weak and seemingly defenseless for long periods of time. Unlike those with other illnesses, PWAs may be very sick and close to death for a while and then go through long periods of good health when they can lead happy, productive lives. As more cases of AIDS are diagnosed among drug users, more clients may be difficult to work with. Finally, with more women contracting the virus and dying, there are orphaned children who are not infected as well as children who were born with the virus. Many of these children are not or cannot be cared for by their mothers or other relatives.
However, working in the HIV field can be rewarding. As you must know, as you are planning to enter the human service field, all work with people is rewarding. If your interest is in research, you can become involved with learning more about the virus, thus increasing the probability of a cure, a vaccine, or better care for people who are HIV positive. If you work with individual clients, you will no doubt develop intense, deep relationships with many of them; some of ...

In the year 2000, a halophile was isolated from a 250 million year old salt crystal and grown up
in a university laboratory in Westchester PA. What did the scientists isolate and why do you
think it survived 250 million years?
Solution
Halophile is salt loving, They are extremophiles which live in high saline environment. They
adapt different strategies to survive in the extreme salt conditions. These adaptations are-
Hence the halophile survived 250 million years.
In in the image seen here, in which direction would you expect water .pdf
In in the image seen here, in which direction would you expect water to move if the membrane
is not permeable to the solute? It would move equally between both sides. Right to left Left to
right
Solution
The process shown here is called as Osmosis.. According to which the movement of water
molecules take place from the region higher concentration to a region of lower water
concentration when separated by the semi - permeable Membrane..
In this the left side contains more water molecules concentration then right side as the right side
contains more solute molecules...
Soo, the movement will be from Left Side to Right side...!!!!.
How does the movement of DNA fragments on the gel and the movemen.pdf
How does the movement of DNA fragments on the gel and the movement of the ethilisim
troemide in the eel affect the appearance of the DNA fragments?
Solution
Answer:
the movement of DNA happens from a negative charged electrode to positively charged
electrode as the DNA is negatively charged.
By applying the electric field through the agarose gel matrix DNA is seperated on the basis of
size.
Ethidium bromide is a flourescent dye which intercalates into circular DNA and can
sunsequently change the charge, length, as well as the superhelicity of the DNA molecule,
EtBr presence in gel during electrophoresis can affect movement of DNA. Agarose gel
electrophoresis can be used to resolve circular DNA with different supercoiling topology.
as more EtBr binds between the DNA bases, the molecule stiffens and hence mobility is
decreased as compared to same frangment being run without EtBr.
Ethedium bromide is positively charged and runs from the positive electrode towards the
negative electrode. i.e opposite direction of movement of DNA.
hence when the two encounter, the intercalaton happens, leading to flourescence of orange red
colour under UV light..

Discuss the recruitment and selection procedure done by human resour.pdf
Discuss the recruitment and selection procedure done by human resource management?
Solution
The procedure of recruitment and selection done by the human resource management involves
five distinct and basic aspects which are as follows:
1. CRITERIA DEVELOPMENT: Those individuals which are involved in the process of hiring
should be trained enough to develop criteria , to conduct interview , to review the resumes , to
develop the questions for interview , to weigh the candidates.
In this step the basic thing is to plan the interview and develop the criteria as which of the
sources are to be used during interview and how to use these sources to score better in the
interview.The criteria should be job focussed and also the focus should be on the personality.
In this process the involvement of discussion of the skills, abilities and some personal
characteristics takes place that are required to have to the job.Before reviewing the resumes by
developing this criteria can be sure that he is fair in selecting the applicants to interview.The
application should include the details of the candidate , previous job experience certificates and
educational qualification certificates.
2. APPLICATION AND REVIEWING OF RESUME : After the completion of step 1 the
applications can now be reviewed. There are different ways to go through this process but there
are various computer based programs that can search for the keywords in the resumes and
shortlist the number of resumes that can b looked into.
3. INTERVIEW PROCESS : After shortlisting those applicants who have met the minimum
criteria.The HR manager selects these applicants for the interview.Due to lack of time sometimes
interview is being done on phone.
4. TEST ADMINISTRATION : Before the hiring decision is made any number of test are
administered. The tests may be physical tests ,drug tests, response test, credit report checks,
personality tests, etc.
5. OFFER MAKING PROCESS : This is the final step in which the choosen candidate is offered
the job position. The offer can b developed through email or through the job letter.All the
benefits and compensation are discussed in the offer letter..

spreading. This is because most communicable diseases are food-borne. And changes in food are
occurring all around the globe. If public health professionals will ignore this part, then certain
pathogens may move in to the population unknowingly.
It is important to note that if a pathogen enters the population, then it will become a outbreak
immediately in the US. This is because of decreasing immunity due to increasing health, hygiene
and life expectancy. The people are more susceptible to pathogenic attack.
A pathogenic attack can be air-borne, water-borne or sexually transmitted also. Any type of
attack will soon become an outburst over there. Therefore, public health professionals need to be
extremely vigilant and devote more resources than their counter part countries on prevention and
control..
The Challenges of Global Health
Global health is the health of populations in the global context;
It has been defined as "the area of study, research and practice that places a priority on improving health and achieving equity in health for all people worldwide".Health is a state of physical, mental, and social well-being in which disease and infirmity are absent. Global health practices can respond to some of the major health responsibilities such as non-communicable diseases (heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and chronic respiratory diseases) or injuries that occur in varying degrees in many countries, no matter how advanced.
The guidelines set out the principles and practices that government can look at when making laws and regulating food programs. Inequality affects the health of the world.
The future of global health is at risk and needs urgent strategies. Also, technology is contributing at a vast pace to overcome the various health challenges all over the world.
For prevention of non-communicable diseases(NCD):
Ban all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion, and sponsorship.
Restrictions on the availability of retailed alcohol.
Replacement of trans fats with polyunsaturated fats.
Scale-up early detection and coverage starting with very cost-effective, high-impact interventions.

The Process of Infection
Disease-causing agents called pathogens are found in air and food and on nearly every object or person.
An epidemic is a disease outbreak that affects many people in a community or region at the same time.
A pandemic is a global epidemic of a disease.
When a pathogen is virulent, it is strong enough to overcome host resistance and cause disease.
One becomes immunocompromised when the immune system is impaired.

Routes of Transmission
Direct contact: kissing or touching an infected person
Indirect contact: touching something that the infected person has touched
You may also autoinoculate yourself by transmitting a pathogen from one part of your body to another.
Animal-borne (zoonotic) infections are spread by domestic and wild animals.
Interspecies transmission is rare but does occur.

CHAPTER 13 WORKING WITH PEOPLE WHO LIVE WITH HIV AND AIDS: THE PROBLEM AND HUMAN SERVICES
WM. LYNN MCKINNEY
As a human service worker, you are almost certain to have clients who are people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and persons living with AIDS (PWAs). This is true because AIDS affects people of all ages, sexual orientations, and ethnic and minority groups and because the needs of PWAs and people living with HIV are numerous and span virtually all human service programs. Because AIDS is an illness, there are medical needs. Since most PWAs eventually must stop working, they have income needs. The number of children who have HIV is growing, and these young people may have educational needs. For several reasons, there are likely to be psychological and social needs.
First of all, AIDS occurs primarily in people younger than fifty, which means that PWAs must deal with a fatal illness at an early age. Second, AIDS is found mainly in marginalized people such as homosexual men, injection drug users, and racial and ethnic minorities. Still another reason that PWAs may have psychological needs is that many of them will have many friends who are seriously ill or who have died. The effects of such losses are potentially enormous. Thus, the entire human service system is involved in working with people living with AIDS and HIV. So, as you enter the field, it is important that you know about HIV and AIDS and society’s reactions to the disease.
Working with people with AIDS and HIV presents particular challenges. Many people with this illness will not have close ties with their families who may have turned their backs on what is perceived to be a social embarrassment. Most will be poor, some because they were poor when they became sick and others because the disease is impoverishing. Death from AIDS-related causes can be horrible; the diseases and infections that affect a PWA can leave people thin and weak and seemingly defenseless for long periods of time. Unlike those with other illnesses, PWAs may be very sick and close to death for a while and then go through long periods of good health when they can lead happy, productive lives. As more cases of AIDS are diagnosed among drug users, more clients may be difficult to work with. Finally, with more women contracting the virus and dying, there are orphaned children who are not infected as well as children who were born with the virus. Many of these children are not or cannot be cared for by their mothers or other relatives.
However, working in the HIV field can be rewarding. As you must know, as you are planning to enter the human service field, all work with people is rewarding. If your interest is in research, you can become involved with learning more about the virus, thus increasing the probability of a cure, a vaccine, or better care for people who are HIV positive. If you work with individual clients, you will no doubt develop intense, deep relationships with many of them; some of ...

In in the image seen here, in which direction would you expect water .pdf
In in the image seen here, in which direction would you expect water to move if the membrane
is not permeable to the solute? It would move equally between both sides. Right to left Left to
right
Solution
The process shown here is called as Osmosis.. According to which the movement of water
molecules take place from the region higher concentration to a region of lower water
concentration when separated by the semi - permeable Membrane..
In this the left side contains more water molecules concentration then right side as the right side
contains more solute molecules...
Soo, the movement will be from Left Side to Right side...!!!!.
How does the movement of DNA fragments on the gel and the movemen.pdf
How does the movement of DNA fragments on the gel and the movement of the ethilisim
troemide in the eel affect the appearance of the DNA fragments?
Solution
Answer:
the movement of DNA happens from a negative charged electrode to positively charged
electrode as the DNA is negatively charged.
By applying the electric field through the agarose gel matrix DNA is seperated on the basis of
size.
Ethidium bromide is a flourescent dye which intercalates into circular DNA and can
sunsequently change the charge, length, as well as the superhelicity of the DNA molecule,
EtBr presence in gel during electrophoresis can affect movement of DNA. Agarose gel
electrophoresis can be used to resolve circular DNA with different supercoiling topology.
as more EtBr binds between the DNA bases, the molecule stiffens and hence mobility is
decreased as compared to same frangment being run without EtBr.
Ethedium bromide is positively charged and runs from the positive electrode towards the
negative electrode. i.e opposite direction of movement of DNA.
hence when the two encounter, the intercalaton happens, leading to flourescence of orange red
colour under UV light..

Discuss the recruitment and selection procedure done by human resour.pdf
Discuss the recruitment and selection procedure done by human resource management?
Solution
The procedure of recruitment and selection done by the human resource management involves
five distinct and basic aspects which are as follows:
1. CRITERIA DEVELOPMENT: Those individuals which are involved in the process of hiring
should be trained enough to develop criteria , to conduct interview , to review the resumes , to
develop the questions for interview , to weigh the candidates.
In this step the basic thing is to plan the interview and develop the criteria as which of the
sources are to be used during interview and how to use these sources to score better in the
interview.The criteria should be job focussed and also the focus should be on the personality.
In this process the involvement of discussion of the skills, abilities and some personal
characteristics takes place that are required to have to the job.Before reviewing the resumes by
developing this criteria can be sure that he is fair in selecting the applicants to interview.The
application should include the details of the candidate , previous job experience certificates and
educational qualification certificates.
2. APPLICATION AND REVIEWING OF RESUME : After the completion of step 1 the
applications can now be reviewed. There are different ways to go through this process but there
are various computer based programs that can search for the keywords in the resumes and
shortlist the number of resumes that can b looked into.
3. INTERVIEW PROCESS : After shortlisting those applicants who have met the minimum
criteria.The HR manager selects these applicants for the interview.Due to lack of time sometimes
interview is being done on phone.
4. TEST ADMINISTRATION : Before the hiring decision is made any number of test are
administered. The tests may be physical tests ,drug tests, response test, credit report checks,
personality tests, etc.
5. OFFER MAKING PROCESS : This is the final step in which the choosen candidate is offered
the job position. The offer can b developed through email or through the job letter.All the
benefits and compensation are discussed in the offer letter..

Describe the nutritional modes of organisms based upon where they obtain carbon energy.
Include an example of each.
Solution
Describe the nutritional modes of organisms based upon where they obtain carbon and energy.
Almost all organisms on the earth need energy to do their work, and carbon to use in building
their chemical structures. And these two (energy and carbon) has to be obtained from external
sources, based on the way they obtain energy and carbon, organisms are broadly classified into
four different groups.
Classification
Obtaining energy and carbon
Examples
Autotrophs
Photoautotrophs
They get energy from sunlight and will not depend on other organisms for carbon. Use CO2 as a
carbon source.
All photosynthetic prokaryotes
Plants (eukaryotes)
Chemoautotrophs
These make use of inorganic chemicals as an energy source. For example, H2S, Fe2+ etc and
CO2 will serve as a carbon source.
Archaea living in hydrothermal vents.
Heterotrophs
Photoheterotrophs
Use light as an energy source and will use organic molecules as a carbon source. These type of
organisms are rare.
Heliobacteria, non-sulfur bacteria, green non-sulfur bacteria etc
Chemoheterotrophs
Use organic molecules like sugars as an energy source.
Use organic molecules like proteins, sugars, fats, nucleic acids, etc. as a carbon source. This type
of nutrition is most common form of nutrition on Earth

Corhin Eckles and Connor Hayes have recieved walkie talkies for Chri.pdf
Corhin Eckles and Connor Hayes have recieved walkie talkies for Christmas. If they leave from
the same point at the same time, Corhin walking north at 2.5 mph and Connor walking east at 3
mph, how long will they be able to talk to each other if the range of the walkie-talkies is 4 mi?
Solution
Corhin DATA:
distance= x miles; rate=2.5 mph; time=d/r= x/2.5
Connor DATA:
distance= y miles; rate=3 mph; time=y/4
EQUATIONS:
1) x^2+y^2=4^2
2) x/2.5 = y/4
Using 2) you get y=4x/2.5
Substitute into 1) to get x^2+(4x/2.5)^2=16
x^2+(16x^2/6.25)=16
6.25x^2+16x^2=16(6.25)
22.25x^2=100
x^2=100/22.25=4.49...
x=2.12 hrs.
x/2.5= 0.85 hrs. = 50.87 minutes
This is Corhin\'s time, but it is the same for Connor..
Consider three genes in a hypothetical bird. One controls the color o.pdf
Consider three genes in a hypothetical bird. One controls the color of feathers on the top of the
head (red or brown), one controls the color of feathers on the chest (black or brown) and one
controls the number of syllables in the song (3 or 4). You notice that birds frequently have either
red heads and black chests or brown heads and brown chests, but very few have red heads and
brown chests or brown heads and black chests. However, there doesn\'t seem to be any
association between the syllables in the bird song and color. In other words, red heads are
equally likely to sing songs with 3 or 4 syllables, and the same goes for the brown heads. Based
on what you know about how the genome is organized and passed down to the next generation,
explain this observation.
Solution
The observation can be attributed to the mechanism of genetic linkage.
It is a well known fact that genes get passed from one generation to another. Mendel\'s second
law of inheritance states that during this process, the inheritance of one gene is independent of
the inheritance of another gene. Howeve, this law holds true only when the different genes are
sufficiently spaced apart from each other. Inother words, if the genes are close to each other, it is
difficult for them to be inherited in an independent manner. If one of the genes is inherited, then
the other gene (by virtue of its proximity to the first gene) also tends to get inherited. This
phenomenon is called as genetic linkage, and the genes involved are said to be Linked Genes.
The same mechanism is in action in the above case.
The genes for Red Head and Black Crest are linked, as are the genes for Brown Head and Brown
Crest. Therefore, these two genes are inherited in a linked manner, and not in an independent
manner. The two genes therefore behave as One Single Gene.
The gene for song syllable is at a sufficient distance from the linked genes, and follows

are organic compounds that bind very tightly to iron ions for transport into cells.
Solution
Organisms like bacteria secrerte substances called siderophores which bind to iron for transport
inside the cell. Iron is one of the important micronutrients for the bacterial metabolism.
Ferrichrome,Desferrioxamine B and Desferrioxamine E are some of the important siderophores
secreted by various bacteria..

Question and Problems

Solution
Ethical issues connect intimately with economic issues. Take the economic practice of doing a
cost-benefit analysis. You could spend one hundred dollars for a night on the town, or you could
donate that one hundred dollars to the reelection campaign of your favorite politician. Which
option is better? The night on the town increases pleasure. A politician’s successful campaign
may lead to more liberty in the long term. We regularly make decisions like this, weighing our
options by measuring their likely costs and likely benefits against each other.
This connects economics directly to a major issue in ethics: By what standard do we determine
what counts as a benefit or a cost? A list of competing candidates for the status of ultimate value
standard includes happiness, satisfying the will of God, long-term survival, liberty, duty, and
equality.
Economists implicitly adopt a value framework when beginning a cost-benefit analysis. Different
value commitments can lead to the same item being considered a cost from one perspective and a
benefit from another. For example, those whose standard of value is increasing human happiness
would count a new road to a scenic mountain vista as a benefit, while those whose standard is
maintaining an unchanged natural environment would count it as a cost.
The results of economic analysis also lead directly to ethical issues. For example, one result of
the nineteenth- and twentieth-century debate over capitalism and socialism is a general
consensus that capitalism is effective at producing wealth and socialism is effective at keeping
people poor. Advocates of capitalism use these results to argue that capitalism is good; others
might respond that “socialism is good in theory, but unfortunately it is not practical.” Implicit in
the capitalist position is the view that practical consequences determine goodness. By contrast,
implicit in the position of those who believe socialism to be an impractical moral ideal is the
view that goodness is distinct from practical consequences.
This connects economics to a second major issue in ethics: Is goodness or badness determined by
real-world practical consequences or by some other means, such as revelations from God, faith in
authorities or authoritative institutions, appeals to rational consistency, felt senses of empathy, or
an innate conscience? The point for economic analysis, most of which is a matter of
understanding and predicting the consequences of various actions, is that the relevance of
economic analysis to policymaking depends, in part, on what one believes is the final source of
value standards..
9. For some non-Mendelian inheritance patterns, the genotype of an i.pdf
9. For some non-Mendelian inheritance patterns, the genotype of an individual is not sufficient to
predict the phenotype. For the following traits, what else do you need to know to predict the
phenotype?
a) Snail coiling direction
b) Angelman syndrome due to deleted UBE3A gene
Solution
The inheritance mechanisms of both snail coiling and Angelman syndrome involve strong
maternal influences. Snail coiling direction is governed by the genotype of the oocyte, not of the
zygote, so much so that the snail coiling direction can be predicted from the maternal genotype
alone. Similarly, Angelman syndrome (due to deletions in ube3A) is governed by the maternal
copy of the gene alone. If the copy of the gene derived from the mother is functional, the
individuals are healthy. If the maternal copy is defective or deficient, the individual suffers from
the Angelman syndrome..
You have mated a phenotypically wild-type female of the genotype Xy+.pdf
You have mated a phenotypically wild-type female of the genotype Xy+w+Xyw to a male with
the genotype XywY. You counted 2205 total F1 progeny and found 17 flies with gray bodies and
white eyes and 12 flies that had yellow body and red eyes. What is the distance between these
genes controlling body color and eye color on the X chromosome?
rev: 10_27_2012
A. 0.78 map units
B. 1.32 map units
C. 2.63 map units
D. 98.7 map units
Solution
In this problem total progeny is 2205. Among them recombinant individuals are 17 flies with
gray body and white eyes; 12 flies with yellow body and red eyes.
Then % of Recombination = No. Of Recombinant Individuals x 100 / Total progeny
= (17 + 12) x 100 / 2205
= 29 x 100 / 2205
= 1.32 % or 1.32 mU.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
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

According the United States (U.S.) Centers for Disease Control and P.pdf
- 1. According the United States (U.S.) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2015 influenza and pneumonia combined were the 8th leading causes of death (55,227 deaths in total) and the only communicable diseases ranked among the top ten killers in the U.S. What were the 10 causes of mortality in the U.S. in 1900 and 2015? Since communicable disease caused a relatively few deaths in the U.S. in 2015, why should public and public health professionals be concerned about them anymore and devote resources in their prevention and control? Solution Top 10 leading causes of deaths in US: Hearts diseases Cancer Airway diseases which are non infectious Cardio vascular disorders Accidents Alzheimer's disease Diabetes Pneumonia or influenza Nephropathys Suicide. The period of communicability is less for the communicable diseases, hence they are prevention of disease in early stages is possible. Prevention and control of influenza: Good ventilation of public buildings Encouraging sufferers to cover their faces with a handkerchief when coughing and sneezing Stay in home at the first sign of influenza Vaccination against the influenza, may be killed or level attenuated vaccines Prevention of exposure to influenza strains by hygiene practice Antiviral drugs like amantadine or rimantidine used Prevention and control of pneumonia: Pneumococcal pneumonia vaccination, PPV 23 AND PCV7. Education of mother to observe the sings of pneumonia. History taking and clinical examination are very important for management Physical examination for, breath count, chest indrawing, listen for stridor, wheezing and for severe malnutrition, cyanosis Any signs detected, they are treated early by antibiotics and other measures Improving the primary medical care services and development.
