An epic bribe scandal at Petrobras, a major oil company controlled by the Brazilian government, that broke out in 2015 shocked the economic and political system of Brazil. Put simply, the company insiders, outside suppliers and contractors, and politicians colluded and stole billions of dollars from the company via kickbacks, bid riggings, overcharging for construction projects, and the like. The Petrobras scandal led to a sharp drop of the company share price, laying off thousands of workers, and tilting the national economy toward recession. The scandal also seriously tarnished the image of Brazil as a promising emerging market. Discuss in detail what happened at Petrobras and then investigate how the company’s governance and the country’s political culture may have contributed to the scandal. At least 6 sentences: 1 point Grammar and punctuation: 1 point Paragraph with transition sentences: 2 points Appropriate and relevant content with explanation: 4 points Solution Operation carwash was a widespread money-laundering scheme in a state owned enterprise in Brazil called Petrobras that was exposed in 2014. This scandal involved Petrobras top management and high-ranking officials from the Brazilian federal government. A brief summary of the scandal: Paulo Roberto Costa who was the chief of Petrobras refinery from 2004 to 2014 unfairly used his relationships with six of large construction firms in Brazil. These firms were awarded contracts from Costa’s division and they overvalued these contracts by 3%. Petrobras employees turned a blind eye when evaluating bids to these contracts. The overvaluation thus created excess capital for the company. The excel capital was siphoned off in three ways- the officials from construction company pocketed some amount of excess funds, and rewarded their partners inside Petrobras. Some of the funds were also diverted to ruling political parties in terms of gifts, donations etc. The total value of bribes involved in this scandal is approximated somewhere between 3Bn to 5.3Bn USD. Contribution of company’s governance model into scandal: Contribution of country’s political culture into scandal.

Brazilian engineering is going through the biggest crisis in its history. Companies with recognized technical capacity, with a significant contribution in works and services for our engineering, are paralyzed due to the legal processes to which they are responding. We have seen the destruction of our largest engineering companies. The professionals, especially their engineers, were dismissed by the thousands, the works were suspended, while waiting to see to what extent these companies would be affected by the penalties of Operation Lava Jato. The Bolsonaro government's decision to open Brazil to the entry of foreign companies contributes to destroying the already weakened engineering companies and favoring the employment of engineering professionals from abroad to the detriment of the jobs of many Brazilian engineers. The damage to Brazil and to Brazilian engineering is undeniable.

This article aims to show the differences of economic propositions among the candidates Jair Bolsonaro, Ciro Gomes, Fernando Haddad, Geraldo Alckmin and Marina Silva in order that the readers know their purposes and identify who will have real conditions to overcome the economic crisis deep in which the Brazilian nation is. Voters need to understand that without overcoming the serious economic problems, the remaining problems will not be solved in Brazil. Without underestimating the importance of other issues such as education, health, environment, security, etc., to guide the choice of the voter about the best candidate for the Presidency of the Republic, it is fundamental that the voter analyzes the economic proposals of the candidates to make the most choice appropriate. I hope that this article makes it possible to guide the readers' decision about the choice of the candidate for the Presidency of the Republic who is better able to solve the gigantic economic problems of Brazil.

President Lula said in his inaugural speech in 2003 he won the election because hope (of the people) won fear (of change). However, when taking office, President Lula and his team have shown that the fear of facing the real causes of national problems overlapped on the hope of the people to carry out the changes required to promote economic and social progress of Brazil because it kept neoliberal economic policy of the Fernando Henrique Cardoso government. Instead of mobilizing civil society to together with the government to develop and implement a national development plan capable of breaking the barriers to economic and social progress of Brazil that correspond to the true interests of the majority of the Brazilian people, governments of PT (Worker Party) of Lula and Dilma Rousseff decided to maintain the neoliberal economic model opened in the Fernando Collor government which resulted in increased dependence of the country on foreign capital and low economic growth.

Describe how meiotic and mitotic nondisjunctions occur and their possible phenotypic consequences Solution 1. Meiotic non disjunction basiclly happens in meiosis II. Ovulated eggs become arrested in metaphase II until fertilization triggers the second meiotic division. Similar to the segregation events of mitosis, the pairs of sister chromatids resulting from the separation of bivalents in meiosis I are further separated in anaphase of meiosis II. As a consequence, different phenotypes will be observeed: In oocytes, one sister chromatid is segregated into the second polar body, while the other stays inside the egg. During spermatogenesis, each meiotic division is symmetric such that each primary spermatocyte gives rise to 2 secondary spermatocytes after meiosis I, and eventually 4 spermatids after meiosis II. 2. Mitotic non-disjunction occurs in the mitosis. In mitosis, each chromosome consists of two sister chromatids held together at the centromere. In the anaphase of mitosis, sister chromatids separate and migrate to opposite cell poles before the cell divides. Nondisjunction during mitosis leads to one daughter receiving both sister chromatids of the affected chromosome while the other gets none. As a consequence, Mitotic nondisjunction results in somatic mosaicism, since only daughter cells originating from the cell where the nondisjunction event has occurred will have an abnormal number of chromosomes..

2.Distinguish between assigned and emergent leaders. Give an example of an instance in which you \"emerged\" as a leader. Explain how your communication might have facilitated your emergence as leader. Solution In most of the organisations today, there are broadly two types of leadership. One is the “Assigned leadership” and another one is “Emergent leadership”. The difference between the assigned and emergent leadership is that in the assigned leadership, a person is explicitly appointed to hold a particular position in the organisational structure. This is a more common and traditional form of leadership where at the time of recruiting itself, the candidates are conveyed by the human resource managers about the position they are being hired for such as team leader, area sales manager, vice president, etc. Where as in the emergent leadership, a person is not appointed, recruited or elected to a leadership role. Instead, the person himself or herself emerges as a leader of the team or group he or she is a part of, as a result of his or her interaction with the group over a period of time. The most successful companies of the world are focussed on the emergent form of leadership to add value to their organisations. The emergent leaders are usually the ones who have spent a lot of time with the organisation, have undergone multiple business cycles and knows the in and out functioning of the organisation. They are effective communicators and understand company process and policies better than most of the people in the company. Because of their superior domain knowledge and productive way of doing things, they emerge as leaders of their team. In one of the early assignments of my career, I was working as a direct sales representative in a leading public sector bank. I was tagged to a branch out of more than 1200 branches that the bank had in the country. Direct sales representatives (DSTs) are responsible to get more customers and more business for the bank by moving in the field all day and interacting with different types of prospective customers. These customers included both the retail and the corporate customers. During my two and a half years tenure with the bank, I was a consistent top performer in terms of the volume and value of the business generated by each direct sales representative per month. I had an excellent product knowledge on every banking product that the bank had to offer such as savings account, current account, fixed deposits, recurring deposits, third party insurance, home loans, car loans, business loans, debit and credit cards and all other assets and liabilities products. In a very short period of time, I emerged as the leader of the direct sales representative team by becoming a team leader of the DSTs of my branch and the regional head of all the direct sales representatives of our region (covering more than 15 branches) at the time of my exit from that particular bank. I believe, in my emergence as a leader, my effe.

To complete the task, you need to fill in the missing code. I’ve included code to create an Iterator. An Iterator is an object that iterates over another object – in this case, a circular linked list. You can use the .next() method to advance the Iterator to the next item (the first time you call it, the iterator will travel to node at index 0). Using iterator’s .remove() removes the node the iterator is currently at. Say that we had a CircularLinkedList that looked like this: A ==> B ==> C ==> D ==> E ==> Calling .next() three times will advance the iterator to index 2. Calling .remove() once will remove the node at index 2. A ==> B ==> D ==> E ==> Calling .remove() once more will remove the node now at index 2. A ==> B ==> E ==> The Iterator methods handle wrapping around the CircularLinkedList. Be sure to create the iterator using l.iterator() and after you’ve added all the nodes to the list, where l is your CircularLinkedList Solution import java.util.Iterator; class CircularLinkedList implements Iterable { // Your variables // You can include a reference to a tail if you want Node head; int size; // BE SURE TO KEEP TRACK OF THE SIZE // implement this constructor public CircularLinkedList() { head=null; } // writing helper functions for add and remove, like the book did can help // but remember, the last element\'s next node will be the head! // attach a node to the end of the list // Be sure to handle the adding to an empty list // always returns true public boolean add(E e) { Node newNode=new Node(e); if(size==0){ head=newNode; } else{ Node last=getNode(size-1); last.next=newNode; } newNode.next=head; //last element node is set to head size++; return true; } // need to handle // out of bounds // empty list // adding to front // adding to middle // adding to \"end\" // REMEMBER TO INCREMENT THE SIZE public boolean add(int index, E e){ if(index>size) return false; Node tmp=new Node(e); if(index==0){ tmp.next=head; Node last=getNode(size-1); head=tmp; last.next=head; } else { Node curr=getNode(index-1); tmp.next=curr.next; curr.next=tmp; } size++; return true; } // I highly recommend using this helper method // Return Node found at the specified index // be sure to handle out of bounds cases private Node getNode(int index ) { Node prev=head; for(int i=0;isize) { e=null; } else if(index==0){ e = head.getElement(); Node last=getNode(size-1); head=head.next; last.next=head; size--; } else{ Node prev=getNode(index-1); Node curr=getNode(index); e=curr.getElement(); prev.next=curr.next; size--; } return e; } // Turns your list into a string // Useful for debugging public String toString(){ Node current = head; StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder(); if(size == 0){ return \"\"; } if(size == 1) { return head.getElement().toString(); } else{ do{ result.append(current.getElement()); result.append(\" ==> \"); current = current.next; } while(current != head); } return result.toString(); } public Iterator iterator() { return new ListIterator(); } /.

The correct sequence of the phases of the cell cycle are A. prophase, interphase, metaphase, telophase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis B. prophase, metaphase, anaphase, cytokinesis, telophase C. Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis D. prophase, anaphase, metaphase, telophase, cytokinesis In which stage of mitosis the chromosomes align along the cell equator? A. Metaphase B. Anaphase C. Telophase D. Prophase Which of the following statements is correct about DNA replication? A. It occurs during the S phase of the interphase B. The leading strand is synthesized discontinuously forming Okazaki fragments C. The lagging strand is synthesized continuously toward the replication fork D. The leading strand is synthesized continuously away from the replication fork The phase of mitosis in which the nuclear envelope reforms is A. prometaphase B. prophase. C. telophase. D. metaphase A compacted state of the genetic material DNA is known as A. Genome B. Euchromatin C. Heterochromatin D. Chromatin During mitosis, the separation of sister chromatids to the opposite poles of the cell occur during A. Prophase B. Metaphase C. Anaphase D. Telophase Which of the following will occur in meiosis but not in mitosis? A. DNA replication B. Cytokinesis C. Crossing over D. Metaphase Solution 1. C 2.A In metaphase kinetochore of the microtubule pull the sister chromatids towards equator. This is a check point for the cell division. 3.A DNA replication is important for the cell division, it occurs in the S phase of the interphase. 4. C In the telophase nuclear membrane starts to reassamble and cover the newly form or divided chromosomes. 5. C Slightly compact form of genetic material called euchromatin and when protein bind with DNA, tightly compact form of DNA called heterochromatin. 6.C In Anaphase separated chromatids pull out towards the pole by spindle fibers. 7. C Crossing over is the events, occured in meiosis in which genetic material is exchanged between homologous non sister chromatids..
