Unit 7 Heredity, Structure and Function - DiscussionMut.docxdickonsondorris
Unit 7: Heredity, Structure and Function - Discussion
Mutations are changes that occur within the genes of an organism. Sometimes these mutations impact a single gene, while other mutations impact the number or structure of entire chromosomes. Because many mutations change just one tiny piece of information in one single piece of DNA, they usually do not cause any problems. For example, imagine if someone sent you a long e-mail and accidentally misspelled the word "friend" as "freind." You would still understand the e-mail and would probably still even catch the original meaning - this is a good analogy for what happens with a point mutation, where just one part of a gene is changed.
However, sometimes a single mistake can make a big difference. Imagine if, while composing a long e-mail, you accidentally select and delete an entire paragraph, or perhaps auto-correct changes a critical word. You can imagine (and perhaps have even experienced) how such a mistake might cause great confusion and miscommunication.
Many genetic disorders are caused by changes to a single gene in the form of a point mutation or due to a chromosomal abnormality like a chromosome disorder. Sometimes these mutations are passed from one generation to the next, just like other harmless traits like eye color and blood type. These mutations may cause specific disorders, or they may predispose a person to a common disease like cancer or heart disease.

GE 3000 – Introduction Section (Research Problem Statement)
Introduction: Formulating a Research Problem is the first and most important step of the research process. While the main portion of your work for this semester is focused on the Literature Review, the introduction to the research paper - The Research Problem Statement – is an important step in setting up the research problem to be investigated.
The Research Problem Statement comes before the Literature Review and acts as an introduction in a full-length research paper. The Research Problem Statement should be about 250-350 words in length, or about a page to a page-and-a-half when double-spaced. You must cite a minimum of two references (two scholarly sources) in proper MLA or APA format.
The main questions a Research Problem answers are:
· What will be researched? Identify a specific problem, program, or phenomenon
· Who will be researched? Who is the study population (people)?
Questions you should ask yourself when composing the Research Problem:
(Note that these questions are not necessarily going to be explicitly answered question-by-question in the Research Problem Statement. Rather, these are things that you should be thinking about and able to answer for yourself before you begin constructing the document).
· Who is the study population? How can you further refine the study population?
· What exactly do you want to understand about the topic/problem?
· Is the Research Problem too broad?
· How relevant is the research to your study area/discipline/major/interests?
· What motivates you to do the research on the chosen topic/problem?
· Why should others be interested in your chosen topic/problem?
· What are the concepts and issues to be studied?
· What concepts and measurements have to be further defined before the study begins?
· Do you have enough time to complete the research?
· Is an answer to the Research Problem obvious?
Constructing a Research Problem
A Research Problem typically consists of three parts: 1) the ideal, 2) the reality, and 3) the consequences.
1. Part A- the ideal: Describes a desired goal or ideal situation; explains how things should be.
2. Part B - the reality: Describes a condition that prevents the goal, state, or value in Part A from being achieved or realized at this time; explains how the current situation falls short of the goal or ideal.
3. Part C - the consequences: Identifies the way you propose to improve the current situation and move it closer to the goal or ideal.
Steps to Writing a Research Problem:
Step 1 (statement 1): Construct statement 1 by describing a goal or desired state of a given situation, phenomenon etc. This will build the ideal situation (what should be, what is expected, desired). How should things be in your topic? What is the ideal scenario?
Step 2 (statement 2): Describe a condition that prevents the goal, state, or value discussed in step 1 from being achieved or realized at the present time. This will build ...

Research problem is a question that a researcher wants to answer or a problem that a researcher wants to solve. Identification and formulation of a research problem is the first step of the research process.
However, it is considered as one of the most challenging and difficult phases of any research project. It is believed that selection of a good research problem is a discovery in itself.
Selection of a research problem depends on several factors, such as researcher's knowledge, skills, interest, expertise, motivation, and creativity with respect to the subject of inquiry.
In addition, a researcher needs to ensure that a selected problem has high significance and implication for his or her profession as well as it should be a suitable, feasible, testable, and solvable research problem.
It is believed that most of the good research studies need lots of time for selection of a research problem. Initially, every researcher faces the predicament of identifying, selecting, and formulating a good research problem. This chapter will answer these pertinent questions.

Introduction: Formulating a Research Problem is the first and most important step of the research process. While the main portion of your work for this semester is focused on the Literature Review, the introduction to the research paper - The Research Problem Statement – is an important step in setting up the research problem to be investigated.
The Research Problem Statement comes before the Literature Review and acts as an introduction in a full-length research paper. The Research Problem Statement should be about 250-350 words in length, or about a page to a page-and-a-half when double-spaced. You must cite a minimum of two references (two scholarly sources) in proper MLA or APA format.
The main questions a Research Problem answers are:
· What will be researched? Identify a specific problem, program, or phenomenon
· Who will be researched? Who is the study population (people)?
Questions you should ask yourself when composing the Research Problem:
(Note that these questions are not necessarily going to be explicitly answered question-by-question in the Research Problem Statement. Rather, these are things that you should be thinking about and able to answer for yourself before you begin constructing the document).

Constructing a Research Problem
A Research Problem typically consists of three parts: 1) the ideal, 2) the reality, and 3) the consequences.
1. Part A- the ideal: Describes a desired goal or ideal situation; explains how things should be.
2. Part B - the reality: Describes a condition that prevents the goal, state, or value in Part A from being achieved or realized at this time; explains how the current situation falls short of the goal or ideal.
3. Part C - the consequences: Identifies the way you propose to improve the current situation and move it closer to the goal or ideal.
Steps to Writing a Research Problem:
Step 1 (statement 1): Construct statement 1 by describing a goal or desired state of a given situation, phenomenon etc. This will build the ideal situation (what should be, what is expected, desired). How should things be in your topic? What is the ideal scenario?

Title of Paper
Introduction to topic that gives the audience and idea of what you will be discussing in the paper. This should be a brief paragraph that provides an overview of the key points that will be addressed. This section should be concluded with a purpose statement. The purpose of this paper is …consider the intent of the application and list all requirements.
Research Methodologies
Discuss the attributes of quantitative and qualitative research methods and compare/contrast the type of information you can obtain from both types of research. Make sure you are referencing the course learning materials as well as some external references. You should have a minimum of three course learning resource references and two credible external references. Remember that web sites are only considered credible if they end in .gov, .edu, or .org.
Advantages and Disadvantages
Discuss the reality that there are advantages and disadvantages to both types of research.
Quantitative Research
Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of quantitative research. When is it helpful and when is it not helpful. Consider things like type of information that you are seeking, ethics, time needed to complete, etc.
Qualitative Research
Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of quantitative research. When is it helpful and when is it not helpful. Consider things like type of information that you are seeking, ethics, time needed to complete, etc. Also, make sure you address the argument that qualitative research is not real science. Is this true? Why or why not? What value does qualitative research have in nursing practice?
Summary
Write a one paragraph summary of the main points of the paper. This is not an area for adding new information. That should be in the body of your paper. Do not forget to appropriately cite in references in this section too. This is a good place to pull in your course learning resources again.

Research problem is a question that a researcher wants to answer or a problem that a researcher wants to solve. Identification and formulation of a research problem is the first step of the research process.
However, it is considered as one of the most challenging and difficult phases of any research project. It is believed that selection of a good research problem is a discovery in itself.
Selection of a research problem depends on several factors, such as researcher's knowledge, skills, interest, expertise, motivation, and creativity with respect to the subject of inquiry.
In addition, a researcher needs to ensure that a selected problem has high significance and implication for his or her profession as well as it should be a suitable, feasible, testable, and solvable research problem.
It is believed that most of the good research studies need lots of time for selection of a research problem. Initially, every researcher faces the predicament of identifying, selecting, and formulating a good research problem. This chapter will answer these pertinent questions.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
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.

3. What is a case study? Why do you write them?
It may be more helpful to break this down.
A case is a real life situation or event.
A case study is an analysis of that situation or
event, using ideas, theories and approaches you
have learnt about on your course.
The purpose of a Case Study is to develop
and demonstrate an understanding of a
real-life case, and make a decision about it.
This decision is made using the content you
have been learning about on your course.
The key is to show that you can apply your
theoretical learning to real-world problems.

The impact of sleep on a pilot’s performance has attracted the interest
of both aviation authorities and researchers for some time. One specific
factor, sleep inertia which is the physiological state that immediately
follows awakening has been found to impair mental and manual
operations. Sleep inertia has been linked to a number of aviation
incidents involving pilot error. This case study will analyse the role sleep
inertia may have played in the crash of Air India Express Flight IX-812 at
Mangalore in India on May 22nd 2010. The report of the subsequent
Court of Inquiry along with literature relating to sleep inertia will form
the basis of the analysis. First, research findings about sleep inertia
generally, and sleep inertia in aviation specifically, will be examined. An
account of this particular incident and the major findings of the Court of
Inquiry will then be provided. Next a discussion of the impact of sleep
inertia played in this incident and the lessons that can be learnt from
this will be presented. Finally, recommendations for how such incidents
can be avoided in the future are made.

13. Introduction – Move from general to specific.
The use of prepositions in English has always been problematic for
language learners. These small connecting words do not necessarily
exist in other languages, or may not have exactly the same meanings.
This makes teaching of this area very difficult, and research
(Lindstromberg 1998, Brala 2002) indicates that no single method has
yet proved successful. The essay which follows gives a brief history of
prepositional theory and discusses two major teaching strategies from a
cognitive linguistic perspective.

• Has demonstrated a link to the
recommendations.
Conclusions
18. This case study examined the role sleep inertia may have played in
the crash of Air India Express Flight IX-812 at Mangalore in India
on May 22nd 2010. Studies of human factors in aviation have
shown that a variety of factors influence the severity and duration
of sleep inertia. These factors include depth of sleep, timing of
sleep and chemical influences. If a crew member is awakened
from a deep sleep, then it is likely their reaction time performance
will be adversely affected. This appeared to be the case for Air
India Express Flight IX-812 where the Captain was in a long sleep
during the flight. As a result, upon awakening, the Captain’s
judgment appeared to have been impaired, resulting in a series of
poor decisions. This case highlights the need for an effective
Fatigue Risk Management System (FRMS) and a Crew Resource
Management (CRM) system, along with focused training to ensure
crew are fully aware of the impact of sleep inertia on
performance, particularly decision making.

19. Conclusion – Moving from specific to general
In conclusion, it is apparent that the most effective element in teaching of
English articles is the reinforcement of the notion of countability.
The evidence presented here suggests that learners do not use articles
randomly, but that they choose articles according to whether or not the
noun is countable.
The concept of definiteness in relation to articles remains, however,
more problematic, and needs further investigation.
Despite these problems, it is possible for teachers to make a positive
contribution to learners’ knowledge in this important area.

Here’s another one to look at
20. Recommendations
The Recommendations are actions to be implemented as a result of the conclusions.
Conclusion = Patient has an ulcer
Recommendation = Patient to take medicine + stop smoking
• A report prepared for information purposes only will have no Recommendations section
• A report prepared for persuasion purposes will have a Recommendations section - no point in
persuading someone of the need for action if no recommendations are given
• In an essay answer the recommendations may be included in the conclusion
• Recommendations should not include further results, analysis, discussion or conclusions
• The Recommendations section should be simple action list.
Eg: Do action X, build factory Y, delete product Z.
21. Recommendations
Based on the main findings of this case study, it is
recommended that:
CRM training and refreshers for all flight crew should be
conducted as required by DGCA vide Operations Circular
No 2 of 2001
CRM training must include both classroom and simulator
training
- Relate back to the issues discussed in the Conclusion.
- Are stated briefly but clearly
- Are expressed as action statements or directives to do
something
- Use persuasive or firm language such as ‘must’, ‘ought to’ etc.
22. Reflection…
What three main things will you now remember to do next time you are
writing a case study assignment?
