2. In Drosophila, a cross was made between females - all expressing the three X -linked recessive traits scute bristles (sc), sable body (s), and vermillion eyes (v) - and wile type males (P generation). In the F 1 , all femaleswere wild type, while all the males expressed all three mutant traits. The cross was carried to the F 2 generation, and 1000 offspring were counted, with the results shown in the following table. No determination of sex was made in the data. ( 8 points) (a) What are the genotypes of both the male and female parents in both the P and F 1 generations? (b) Determine the sequence of the three genes and the map distances between them. (c) Are there more or fewer double crossovers than expected? (d) Calculate the coefficient of coincidence. Does it represent positive or negative interference?

The Kermode Spirit bear is an alternate phenotype of the species Ursus.pdf
The Kermode Spirit bear is an alternate phenotype of the species Ursus americanus (black bear)
in British Columbia that has striking white fur. It was determined in 2001 that a single nucleo-
tide change from G to A results in the replacement of Tyrosine with Cysteine at codon 289 in the
melanocortin 1 receptor gene (mc1r; Ritland et al. 2001 Current Biology). This allele (W2) is re-
cessive to the wildtype allele (W1), and occurs as a novel mutation in 1 out of every 10,000 cop-
ies. White phenotypes range in frequency from 10% to 25% on various islands, and have been
present for long periods of time. Each island has approximately 50 individuals. It has been esti-
mated that the white bears have a 20% advantage over black bears in fishing salmon from rivers
due to decreased contrast with the sky. Assume these populations started out initially as 100%
W1W1 (AA).
A) what are the parameters used?
B) What evolutionary force(s) is/are acting on the W2 allele?
C) If selection, mutation, and drift were the only processes acting on these populations, what
would be the eventual outcome(s) for the two alleles in a given population?
D) Try running the simulation for fewer generations. How many generations does it take to fix a
novel advantageous allele in all populations? What do these results suggest about the ability of
selection to fix a novel advantageous mutation in a small population; in other words, why is
selection "having trouble"?
E) Name one of the parameters you could change to increase the probability of the W2 allele
becoming fixed in the population?
F) Change that parameter and include the output.
G) Rerun the simulation, changing the fitness of Aa so that W2 (a) is dominant. With a popu-
lation size of 50, how does the probability of the W2 allele becoming fixed change if W2 is the
dominant allele as opposed to recessive?
H) Why does this happen?
I) Include the output and a screenshot of the parameters used.

“The 1960s: A Decade of Promise and Heartbreak”
By Kenneth T. Walsh
March 9, 2010
US News
It was a decade of extremes, of
transformational
change and
bizarre
contrasts: flower children and
assassins
,
idealism
and
alienation
, rebellion and
backlash
. For many in the
massive
post-World War II baby boom generation, it was both the best of times and the worst of times. (7 words)
There will be many 50-year anniversaries to mark significant events of the 1960s, and a big reason is that what happened in that remarkable era still
resonates
today. At the dawn of that decade of contrasts a half century ago—on Jan. 2 ,1960—a
charismatic
young senator from Massachusetts named John F. Kennedy announced that he was running for president, and he won the nation's highest office the following November. He remains one of the
iconic
figures in U.S. history. On February 1, four determined black men sat at a whites-only lunch counter at a Woolworth's in Greensboro, N.C., and were denied service. Their act of
defiance
triggered a wave of sit-ins for civil rights across the South and brought
unrelenting
national attention to America's original sin of racism. On March 3, Elvis Presley returned to the United States from his Army stint in Germany, resuming his career as a pioneer of rock-and-roll and an icon of the youth culture celebrating freedom and a growing sense of rebellion.(5 words)
By the end of the decade, Kennedy had been
assassinated
, along with his brother Robert and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. America's cities had become powder kegs as African-Americans, despite historic gains toward legal equality, became more impatient than ever at being second-class citizens. Women began demanding their rights in
unprecedented
numbers. Young people and their parents felt a widening generation gap as seen in their differing perceptions of
patriotism
, drug use, sexuality, and the work ethic. The now familiar culture wars between liberals and conservatives caused angry divisions over law and order, busing, racial preferences, abortion, the Vie.

1- I have to interview 4 people ( Indians Chinese....)
(Experts professors students......)
-What kind or type of culture shock they experienced when they first came to Kuwait?
And whether they tolerated? how do they feel where they tolerated by Kuwaitis ?
- why culture tolerance of a foreign country is required in international marketing.
Based on what you learn those people, you will learn about feelings and their problems and difficulties when they first arrived in foreign countries. And knowing this, now you have to take this knowledge and apply to marketing and answer the questions whether it's difficult to adopt to foreign culture if it's difficult for people it's probably will be very difficult to also introduce those products and adopt those products to foreign culture. So that's why am asking you why culture tolerance in other nations are important and required to International marketing. you have to answer those

Analysing the impact of carbon emissions on manufacturing operation, cost and profit by focusing on product life cycle analysis.
Analyse aspects of the product life cycle in terms of; Outlining CO2 emission points and scope, defining CO2 baseline, prioritising measures to reduce or off set emissions and finally planning and initiating actions.
3.
New ways of thinking/information sharing
Seven key solution areas were identified:
·
In- store logistics: includes in-store visibility, shelf-ready products, shopper interaction
·
Collaborative physical logistics: shared transport, shared warehouse, shared infrastructure
·
Reverse logistics: product recycling, packaging recycling, returnable assets
·
Demand fluctuation management: joint planning, execution and monitoring
·
Identification and labelling: through the use of barcodes and RFID tags. Identification is about providing all partners in the value chain with the ability to use the same standardised mechanism to uniquely identify parties/locations, items and events with clear rules about where, how, when and by whom these will be created, used and maintained. Labels currently are the most widely used means to communicate about relevant sustainability and security aspects of a certain product towards consumers
·
Efficient assets: alternative forms of energy, efficient/aerodynamic vehicles, switching modes, green buildings
·
Joint scorecard and business plan: this solution consists of a suite of industry-relevant measurement tools falling into two broad categories: qualitative tools, which are a set of capability metrics designed to measure the extent to which the trading partners (supplier, service provider and retailer) are working collaboratively; and quantitative tools, which include business metrics aimed at measuring the impact of collaboration

to SC, SCOR,GSCF Models
Wal-Mart
may be a good example to look at: when you burn less, you pay less and emit less, and the benefits can ripple further. The big advantages for organisations in becoming sustainable are reducing costs and helping the environment. For example: Wal-Mart sells 25% of detergent sold in the United States, by replacing regular washing detergent with concentrate they will save: 400 million gallons of water, 125 million pounds of cardboard and packaging, 95 million pounds of plastic.

Linear Regression
Chapter 4
© 2019 Cengage. All Rights Reserved.
Introduction (Slide 1 of 2)
• Managerial decisions are often based on the relationship between two or
more variables:
• Example: After considering the relationship between advertising
expenditures and sales, a marketing manager might attempt to predict sales
for a given level of advertising expenditures.
• Sometimes a manager will rely on intuition to judge how two variables
are related.
• If data can be obtained, a statistical procedure called regression analysis
can be used to develop an equation showing how the variables are
related.

Introduction (Slide 2 of 2)
• Dependent variable or response: Variable being predicted.
• Independent variables or predictor variables: Variables being used
to predict the value of the dependent variable.
• Simple linear regression: A regression analysis for which any one
unit change in the independent variable, x, is assumed to result in
the same change in the dependent variable, y.
• Multiple linear regression: A regression analysis involving two or
more independent variables.

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

Introduction to AI for Nonprofits with Tapp Network
Dive into the world of AI! Experts Jon Hill and Tareq Monaur will guide you through AI's role in enhancing nonprofit websites and basic marketing strategies, making it easy to understand and apply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.

Genetics 303 Dr. Joe Staton Fourth exam—take home Ans.docx
- 1. Genetics 303 Dr. Joe Staton Fourth exam—take home Answer on separate paper, show all work, and be neat in the reporting of answers. STAPLE YOUR RESULTS! 1. In a human population, the genotype frequencies at one locus are 0.75 AA, 0.22 Aa, and 0.03 aa. What is the frequency of the A allele [f(A)] and a allele [f(a)] for the population? Are they in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? 2. Calculate the number of heterozygotes in a population with p = 0.65 and q = 0.35 (at time = 0). After 4 generations of inbreeding between siblings (F = 0.25) in a population of 1000. 3. Human albinism is an autosomal recessive trait. Suppose that you find an isolated village in the Andes where seven people are albino. If the population size of the village was 1777 and the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with respect to this trait, how many individuals are expected to be carriers (heterozygotes)? 4. A boatload of Swedish tourists, all of whom bear the MM
- 2. blood group, is marooned on Haldane Island, where they are met by an equally sized population of Islanders, all bearing blood group NN. In time, the castaways become integrated into Island society. Assuming random mating, no mutation, no selection (based on blood group), and no genetic drift, what would you expect the blood group distribution to be among 5000 progeny of the new Haldane Island population? 5. You identify a population of mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) on an island. Their coat color is controlled by a single gene: BB mice are black, Bb mice are gray, and bb mice are white. You take a census of the population and record the following numbers of mice: Black 432 Gray 576 White 192 (a) What are the frequencies of the two alleles? (b) What are the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium frequencies for these three phenotypes? (c) A heat wave hits the island. All mice with black fur die from heat stroke, but the other mice survive. What are the new
- 3. allele frequencies for the population? (d) If the population suffers no further cataclysms after the heat wave, and the surviving animals mate randomly, what will be the frequency of mice with black fur in the next generation? (e) If the climate is altered permanently, so that mice with black fur die before reproducing, which following statement is correct? (1) At Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, f(B) will equal 0.135. (2) The fitness of mice with gray fur (ωBb) must be equal to 0.5. (3) The fitness of mice with black fur (ωBB) is 0. (4) The B allele will disappear from the population in one generation. (5) The B allele will disappear from the population in two generations. 6. Which of the following are requirements for evolution by natural selection? Explain your answer. I Environmental change II Differential survival and reproduction III Heritability of phenotypic variation IV Variation in phenotype
- 4. V Sexual reproduction A) II, III, V B) II, III, IV C) I, II, IV D) III, IV, V E) II, IV, V 7. Which of the following processes is the source (origin) of genetic variation within populations? A) Reproductive Isolation B) Asexual reproduction C) Selection D) Mutation E) Genetic drift Explain your answer including a description of what the others do to variation. 8. If the population (14,926 in 2013) of folks in Perry, GA, have an f(a) = 0.1 and folks in Valdosta, GA, has a f(a) = 0.5, then how many people from Valdosta, GA, would have to migrate to Perry to increase the population to at least f(a) = 0.15?
- 5. 9. What is the Ne of a population with the following annual censuses, [note the drop in size due to 2004 being an extreme drought year]? 2001: 9,700 2002: 8,800 2003: 4,600 2004: 400 2005: 2,400 2006: 3,800 2007: 7,650 2008: 9,400 2009: 10,700 2010: 12,110 2011: 17,060 2012: 19,471 2013: 22,834 2014: 25,891 10. Consider the following populations that have the genotypes
- 6. shown in the following table: Population AA Aa aa 1 1.0 0.0 0.0 2 0.0 1.0 0.0 3 0.25 0.50 0.25 4 0.25 0.25 0.50 5 0.32 0.36 0.32 6 0.04 0.32 0.64 7 0.9025 0.095 0.0025 a. What are p and q for each population? b. Which of the populations are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? c. Populations 1 and 2 have a tree fall across their islands so that individuals can cross. If equal numbers of the individuals occur on each island, what is the new population’s allele frequencies and genotype frequencies after one generation of random mating? d. In population 3, the a allele is less fit than the A allele, and the A allele is incompletely dominant. The result is that AA is perfectly fit (= 1.0), Aa has a fitness of 0.85, and aa has a fitness of 0.65. With no mutation or
- 7. migration, graph the allele frequency of the a allele for 10 generations under selection (e.g., Time 0 = q above, Time 1 = first generation after selection) e. In population 8, the population size gets radically reduced to 200 individuals, total. What is the most likely fate of the “a” allele, and what genetic principle would lead you to believe that the case? 11. You are given the following genetic data matrix of distances for crustaceans calculated for a region of the mtDNA called the 16S rDNA: Brine Shrimp Striped-leg hermit King Crab Soldier crab Flat- claw hermit Long-clawed hermit Brine Shrimp ─ Striped-leg hermit 0.354 ─ King Crab 0.309 0.260 ─ Soldier crab (hermit) 0.321 0.268 0.067 ─ Flat-claw hermit 0.337 0.245 0.108 0.111 ─ Long-clawed hermit 0.312 0.249 0.090 0.096 0.044 ─ Calculate the average distance and draw the resulting UPGMA
- 8. tree based on these distances. Write a brief interpretation of the branching pattern in the tree. 12. You digest a linear piece of DNA with two restriction enzymes, BamH1 & Sma1, and get the following sized fragments (in kb [kilobases]): BamHI SmaI BamHI & SmaI 13 kb 11 kb 10 kb 6 kb 5 kb 5 kb 3 kb 3 kb 1 kb Draw the appropriate restriction fragment map based on this data labeling all restriction sites.
