Heredity is passed down from parents to offspring through genes and can influence traits and health conditions. Some examples provided include genes linked to obesity and mental illness. Environment can also impact health, such as air pollution leading to deaths. Media influences behaviors through promoting certain body images and celebrities. Culture shapes acceptance of issues like obesity. Technology impacts sleep, obesity, and cyberbullying. Positive attitudes are linked to better health outcomes while behaviors like smoking, drinking and driving, and anorexia pose risks.
Heredity is the complete set of inherited characteristics of an organism. It has no control rating because traits are determined before birth. Research shows heredity can influence predispositions to mental health issues and cancer risk. Environment is the surrounding conditions where one lives and operates. It has moderate control potential. Research links environments like lead exposure, peer influence, and family life to physical and mental health. Culture provides identity and support but can also limit independence. It has some control. Research ties culture to help-seeking, behavioral influence from diverse heritages, and conforming to peer norms.

LA ASOCIACIÓN DE INTÉRPRETES DE LENGUA DE SIGNOS Y GUÍAS-INTÉRPRETES DE ANDALUCÍA (A.I.L.S.A.) EN DEFENSA DE NUESTRA PROFESIÓN
Ante los acontecimientos que se están produciendo y que afectan al estatus y desarrollo de la profesión de Intérprete de Lengua de Signos, la Asociación de Intérpretes de Lengua de Signos y Guías-Intérpretes de Andalucía (AILSA), quiere manifestar su posición frente a los mismos.
Los intérpretes de lengua de signos son profesionales cualificados y titulados que garantizan el acceso de la comunidad sorda a todos los ámbitos de la vida, tal y como reconoce y establece la Ley 27/2007 de 23 de octubre, “por la se reconocen las lenguas de signos españolas y se regulan los medios de apoyo a la comunicación oral de las personas sordas con discapacidad auditiva y sordociegas”. Para que ese acceso sea posible es necesario asegurar unos niveles de calidad mínimos, que las actuales condiciones laborales de los intérpretes no permiten alcanzar.
This document proposes a Fourier-based evaluation methodology called the Task-Specific-System-Model-Based Fourier (TSMF) method to assess the image quality of clinical full-field digital mammography (FFDM) systems. It involves using a breast phantom to measure a system's generalized modulation transfer function (GMTF) and generalized normalized noise power spectrum (GNNPS). These metrics are used to calculate a Hotelling observer signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for simulated signals in the phantom. The method was applied to two clinical FFDM systems and showed differences in their noise and resolution properties. It can also predict a system's contrast-detail performance and human diagnostic accuracy.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
The document discusses the spiral curriculum, an approach to teaching where basic facts are first introduced without details, and then more details are added with each repetition to help reinforce learning. It is both a sequencing and teaching strategy that exposes learners to concepts and skills through continually revisiting topics with increasing complexity. An example spiral curriculum for science is provided, showing how topics like characteristics of living things are revisited each year with more details. The approach aims to improve retention of concepts while allowing progressive elaboration of topics to broaden understanding.

Uma equipe internacional de astrônomos estudou mais de 200 000 galáxias e mediu a energia gerada numa enorme região do espaço com a maior precisão até hoje. Este estudo representa a estimativa mais completa de produção de energia no Universo próximo. A equipe confirmou que a energia produzida nesta região do Universo de hoje é apenas cerca de metade da produzida há dois bilhões de anos atrás e descobriu que este enfraquecimento ocorre em todos os comprimentos de onda que vão desde o ultravioleta ao infravermelho longínquo. O Universo está morrendo lentamente.
O estudo envolve muitos dos telescópios mais poderosos do mundo, incluindo o VISTA e o VST — os telescópios de rastreio do ESO, instalados no Observatório do Paranal, no Chile. Observações de suporte foram obtidas por dois telescópios espaciais operados pela NASA (GALEX e WISE) e por um outro pertencente à Agência Espacial Europeia (Herschel) [1].
Este trabalho realizou-se no âmbito do projeto Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA), o maior rastreio já realizado em múltiplos comprimentos de onda.
“Usamos tantos telescópios terrestres e espaciais quanto nos foi possível para medir a produção de energia de cerca de 200 000 galáxias ao longo do maior intervalo de comprimentos de onda possível,” disse Simon Driver (ICRAR, The University of Western Australia), que lidera a enorme equipe GAMA.
Uma equipe de astrofísicos usando o Observatório W. M. Keck no Havaí mediu com sucesso a galáxia mais distante já registrada e o mais interessante, capturou sua emissão de hidrogênio vista quando o universo tinha menos de 600 milhões de anos de vida. Adicionalmente, o método pelo qual a galáxia EGSY8p7 foi detectada dá uma ideia importante sobre como as primeiras estrelas no universo se acenderam depois do Big Bang.
Usando o poderoso espectrógrafo infravermelho do Observatório Keck, chamado MOSFIRE, a equipe datou a galáxia detectando sua linha de emissão Lyman-alpha – uma assinatura do gás hidrogênio quente, aquecido pela forte emissão ultravioleta de estrelas recém-nascidas. Embora, frequentemente seja possível detectar essa assinatura em galáxias próximas da Terra, a detecção da emissão Lyman-alpha nessas grandes distâncias é inesperada, já que ela é facilmente absorvida pelos numerosos átomos de hidrogênio que acredita-se existam no espaço entre as galáxias no nascer do universo. O resultado dá uma nova ideia sobre a reionização cósmica, o processo pelo qual nuvens escuras de hidrogênio foram partidas em seus prótons constituintes e elétrons pelas primeiras gerações de galáxias.
“Nós frequentemente observamos a linha de emissão Lyman-alpha do hidrogênio em objetos próximos já que eles são um dos traçadores mais confiáveis da formação de estrelas”, disse o astrônomo Adi Zitrin, do Instituto de Tecnologia da Califórnia, o Caltech, principal autor do estudo. “Contudo, à medida que penetramos mais fundo no universo, e então voltamos a tempos remotos, o espaço entre as galáxias continha um grande número de nuvens escuras de hidrogênio que absorviam esse sinal”.
Os astrônomos descobriram um processo único sobre como as maiores galáxias elípticas do universo continuam gerando estrelas muito tempo depois do anos de pico de nascimentos estelares. A alta resolução e a sensibilidade à radiação ultravioleta do Hubble, permitiu aos astrônomos observarem nós brilhantes de estrelas azuis, quentes, se formando juntamente com jatos de buracos negros ativos encontrados nos centros das gigantescas galáxias elípticas.
Combinando dados do Huubble com observações feitas por um conjunto de telescópios baseados tanto em Terra como no espaço, duas equipes independentes descobriram que os jatos dos buracos negros, e as estrelas recém-nascidas são todos partes de um ciclo auto-regulado. Jatos de alta energia atirados do buraco negro aquecem um halo de gás circulante, controlando a taxa com a qual o gás esfria e cai na galáxia.
“Pense no gás ao redor da galáxia como uma atmosfera”, explicou o líder do primeiro estudo, Megan Donahue, da Universidade Estadual do Michigan. “Essa atmosfera pode conter material em diferentes estados, do mesmo modo que a nossa atmosfera tem gás, nuvens e chuva. O que nós estamos vendo é um processo parecido com uma tempestade. À medida que os jatos impulsionam o gás para fora do centro da galáxia, parte do gás esfria e precipita em aglomerados frios que caem de volta para o centro da galáxia como gotas de chuvas”.
“As gotas de chuva eventualmente esfriam o suficiente para tornar-se nuvens de formação de estrelas de gás frio molecular, e a capacidade de observar no ultravioleta distante do Hubble, nos permitiu observar diretamente esses chuviscos de formação de estrelas”, explicou o líder do segundo estudo, Grant Tremblay, da Universidade de Yale. “Nós sabemos que esses chuviscos estão linkados com os jatos, pois eles foram encontrados em filamentos que se dobram ao redor dos jatos, ou abraçam as bordas de bolhas gigantes que os jatos inflaram”, disse Tremblay. “E eles terminam fazendo um redemoinho de gás de formação de estrelas ao redor do buraco negro central”.
Heredity, environment, media, culture, attitude, and behavior all influence human development in various ways. Heredity determines genetic traits passed from parents to offspring. Environment includes surroundings like home, work, city/rural living that impact health. Media such as TV, internet and music shape views and behaviors. Culture dictates beliefs, traditions and customs that are learned. Attitude or mindset affects mood and outlook. Behavior encompasses actions under personal control that impact health and relationships.

3. Overview of Heredity
• Definition: “The transmission of genetic characters
from parents to offspring: it is dependent upon the
segregation and recombination of genes during meiosis
and fertilization and results in the genesis of a new
individual similar to others of its kind but exhibiting
certain variations resulting from the particular mix of
genes and their interactions with the environment.”
• Rating of Control: 0 out of 10
• Selling Point: Heredity is something that is completely
out of the hands of a person. Traits are passed down
through parents, which leads to certain needs and
requirements. This could lead to smoking, drinking, etc.
4. Research of Influence of Heredity
Example: Obesity
• Stat: Studies also show that people carrying two copies of a gene
associated with obesity (the FTO gene) are, on average, heavier
than those carrying two copies of the protective version.
Citation : http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/09/120911200520.htm
Example: Mental Illness
Stat: Patient with schizophrenia have a 10% chance of developing the
illness as compared to a 1% chance for the general population
(Relatives of the patient)
Citation : www.livestrong.com/article/5255-need-genetic-mental-disorders/
Example: Addiction
• Stat: Addiction is due 50 percent to genetic predisposition and 50
percent to poor coping skills. This has been confirmed by many
medical studies. If the parent has a drug or alcohol addiction, the
child had an 8 times greater chance of developing an addiction.
