Part II – Research
Dr. Siddiqui tells Angela that her test results will be back in a few days and that she will give her
a call when she knows something. You go home and do some research on various thyroid
conditions so that you’ll have a good idea of what is going on with Angela. You find information
on hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, goiter, Graves’ Disease, iodine deficiency (primary
hypothyroidism), Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and various tumors. You make a chart to help yourself
sort out the different disorders.
Questions
3. Describe hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. List at least three symptoms of each.
4. What is a goiter?
5. Please fill out the chart below. Record whether the hormone levels are expected to be high,
low, or either. For antibody/immunoglobulins and goiter, answer yes, no, or possible. (The
antibodies and immunoglobulins in question are those specific to the thyroid disorder.)

8. Some patients with HPT axis problems develop a goiter. Describe two different
scenarios/conditions in which a goiter would be present and explain physiologically why/how the
goiter occurs within each scenario/condition. Make sure to include axis feedback in your answer.
Part III – Test Results

UNITY AND DIVERSITY
Last time I left you with a question whose answer I do not know. The question was: why do human
beings search for unity? Not only is the answer unknown, but the question itself risks being badly
misunderstood. What kind of unity am I talking about? The Renaissance, whose name this Project has proudly
donned, was also the time, as you must have read in Ortega's book, when Spain achieved political and religious
unity by expelling Jews and Muslims, people who had lived there in relative peace for many centuries. Hitler
too screamed: "Ein Volk! Ein Reich!" (One nation, one state), and killed the Jews and the Gypsies. We saw in
the Soviet Union, in Bosnia, in Rwanda, and in many other places the search for unity—ethnic, religious,
ideological—as the prelude to, and excuse for, massacre. So you may say, "Who wants unity? What we want is
diversity!" And indeed, if that's the unity I mean, you would be right. But that, of course, is not the unity I
mean. What I really mean by unity and oneness will be clarified only after we talk about the beginnings of
modern science and philosophy and about those two founding figures, Galileo and Descartes.
As a consequence of the horrors of this century, the word and the concept "unity" or "oneness," which
used to have a supreme value for both Western and Eastern thought, have become profoundly unfashionable
among Western intellectuals. But nothing is more interesting than to re-think unfashionable thoughts, to think
them through yet again. In our own country, the rejection of unity was taught by a professor at Harvard, the
influential philosopher William James (1842-1910). He ventured the idea that there exist worlds which are
totally disconnected, meaning that an event in one world cannot influence another world: no cause-effect
relation obtains between those separate worlds. He called this doctrine "pluralism," and gave, as unassailable
example of disconnected worlds, the dreams of two dreamers. He didn't mean it metaphorically, as when
politicians say, "the American dream," or as when Martin Luther King said, "I have a dream": those dreams are
understood to be shared. No, he meant the dreams of two different people who are sleeping. Whether or not two
such worlds are really disconnected, let us discuss Galileo and Descartes, who dealt with unity and
disconnection in their own, and extremely influential, ways.
GALILEO
Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa (modern Italy) in 1564; thus he was of the same generation as Kepler
(about whom we talked in the last lecture). At age eighteen Galileo had to quit his studies at the University of
Pisa because his family couldn't afford the tuition and the university wouldn't give him financial aid; at age

Kalam cosmological arguments by mohammed hijabdocsforu
This book assesses some of the main forms of the Kalam cosmological argument. The author grapples with both medieval and contemporary interrogations of the argument with reference to Greek, Enlightenment and Medieval philosophers. It gives the reader an insight into some of the main areas of controversy (for example discussions of infinity and contingency) and attempts to make critical assessments throughout. The book concludes with the author’s understanding of the ‘strongest forms’ which attempt to postulate the most undercutting arguments for the existence of God.

c) They are used as primers for DNA sequencing and site-directed mutagenesis only.
Solution
Artificially synthesized DNA in site-directed mutagenesis:
The basic procedure for site-directed mutagenesis requires the synthesis of a short DNA primer,
an artificially synthesized DNA. This synthetic primer contains the desired mutation and is
complementary to the template DNA around the mutation site so it can hybridize with the DNA
in the gene of interest. The mutation may be a single base change (a point mutation), multiple
base changes, deletion, or insertion. The single-strand primer is then extended using a DNA
polymerase, which copies the rest of the gene. The gene thus copied contains the mutated site,
and is then introduced into a host cell as a vector and cloned. Finally, mutants are selected by
DNA sequencing to check that they contain the desired mutation.
Artificially synthesized DNA as primers for DNA sequencing and as nucleic acid hybridization
probes for detection of specific DNA or RNA in the samples:
DNA sequencing can be done by hybridization method that uses a DNA microarray. Unlike
proteins, which have diverse sizes and charges, there is no easy way separate out a specific
sequence of DNA based on its general physical and chemical properties. You cannot chemically
stain for a specific sequence of DNA. In contrast, it is often possible to use a specific stain to
detect a specific protein. Once a DNA sequence is known, the complementary strand can be
synthesized and used to detect the strand of interest in a sample.
A single pool of DNA whose sequence is to be determined is fluorescently labeled and
hybridized to an array containing known sequences, which are artificially synthesized DNA.
Strong hybridization signals from a given spot on the array identifies its sequence in the DNA
being sequenced.
This method of sequencing utilizes binding characteristics of a library of short single stranded
DNA molecules (oligonucleotides), also called DNA probes, which are artificially synthesized
DNA), to reconstruct a target DNA sequence. Non-specific hybrids are removed by washing and
the target DNA is eluted. Hybrids are re-arrang.

We are going to put $2500 into an account that earns interest at a rate of 12%. If we w ant to
have $4000 in the account when we close it how long should we keep the money in the account
if, we compound interest continuously. We compound interest 6 times a year.
Solution
For compounded interest continuously , the formula of amount is
A= Pert
Where A= amount, P=Principal, r= rate of interest and t=time period
Here Amount ,A= $4000, Principal,P=$2500, Rate of interest,r=12%
Substituting these values in the formula
4000=2500e0.12t
Dividing both sides by 2500
4000/2500=2500e0.12t/2500
1.6= e0.12t
Taking Ln on both sides
Ln 1.6=Ln e0.12t
.47=0.12t
Dividing both sides by 0.12
.47/0.12=0.12t/0.12

Training
Major Bill Bligh, Director of the Army War College’s new six-month attaché training program,
is concerned about how the 20 officers taking the course spend their time while in his charge.
Major Bligh recognizes that there are 168 hours per week and thinks his students have been
using them rather inefficiently.
Bligh lets:
X1 = number of hours of sleep needed per week
X2 = number of personal hours
X3 = number of hours of class and studying
X4 = number of hours of social time off base
He thinks that students should study 30 hours a week to have time to absorb the material. This is
his most important goal. Bligh feels that students need at most 7 hours of sleep per night on
average and that this goal is number 2. He believes that goal number 3 is to provide at least 20
hours per week of social time.
Formulate this goal programming problem
Solve with the software (lindo or excel) of your choice.
Solution
Total hours x= 168 hours è 7days
X = 1 week = 168 hours = 7 days + 7 nights
X1 = number of hours of sleep needed per week
Based on goal number 2 students need at most 7 hours of sleep per night on average
So,
X1=7*7 = 49 Hours per week
X3 = number of hours of class and studying
30 hours a week to have time to absorb the material
X3 = 30 hours per week
X4 = number of hours of social time off base
that goal number 3 is to provide at least 20 hours per week of social time.
X4 = 20 hours per week
X2 = number of personal hours
69
X1+X2+ X1+X2 = X
X=168
X1=49
X2=?
X3=30
X4=20
X2 = x-(X1+X2+X3)
X2 = 168-(49+30+20);
X2 = 168-99;
X2 = 99

This is a nursing informatics question...What is “Meaningful Use”,.pdfsales96
The Miami Central Hotel has 420 rooms. Every day, the housekeepers clean any room that was
occupied the night before. If a guest is checking out of the hotel, the housekeepers give the room
a thorough cleaning to get it ready for the next guest. This takes 25 minutes. If a guest is staying
another night, the housekeeper only “refreshes” the room, which takes 20 minutes.
Each day, each housekeeper reports for her 6- hour shift, then prepares her cart. She pushes the
cart to her floor and begins work. She usually has to restock the cart once per day; then she
pushes it back to the storeroom at the end of the day and delivers dirty laundry, etc. Here is a
timetable:
1) Arrive at work and stock cart (0.10 hrs).
2) Push cart to floor (0.10 hrs).
3) Take morning break (0.33 hrs).
4) Stop for lunch (0.50 hrs).
5) Restock cart (0.30 hrs).
6) Take afternoon break (0.33 hrs).
7) Push cart back to laundry and store items (0.33 hrs).
Last night, the hotel was full (all 420 rooms were occupied). People are checking out of 200
rooms. Their rooms will need to be thoroughly cleaned. The other 200 rooms will need to be
refreshed.
a) How many minutes per day of actual room cleaning can each housekeeper do?
b) Based on the given occupancy and the guests, checking out , the total number of minutes of
room cleaning required by Miami Central Hotel today is _____ minutes (enter as a whole
number)
c) The number of housekeepers that are needed today to perform the room cleaning is ____
housekeeper (round response next whole number)
d) The number of housekeepers that would be needed by the hotel for perfroming thorough
cleaning of all rooms (assuming that all guests check out) is ____ housekeepers (round response
to next whole number)
Solution
a)
1)Arrive at work and stock cart (0.10 hrs).
2) Push cart to floor (0.10 hrs).
3) Take morning break (0.33 hrs).
4) Stop for lunch (0.50 hrs).
5) Restock cart (0.30 hrs).
6) Take afternoon break (0.33 hrs).
7) Push cart back to laundry and store items (0.33 hrs)
adding all thhis we will get 199 minutes taken by each housekeeper in all this
its a 6 hours shift which means 360 minutes
so actual cleaning per day id for 360-199 = 161 minutes
b) 200*20 + 220*25 = 9500 minutes
c)201 actual minute of ckeaning is done by one
which means taking 20 minutes 10 rooms can be done
and taking 25 minutes 8 rooms can be done.
200/8+ 220/10 = 25+22 = 47 housekeeper

Provide and discuss examples of sequential, conditional, and iterative operations, from everyday
life. How do the ways we state these operations in everyday life differ from ways we state these
operations them in pseudocode?
Solution
1) Sequential Operations are operations that carried out one after the other.
Conditional operations are Operations that are carried out based on certain criteria.
Iterative Operations are Operations that are carried out Repeatedly.
Examples of them in daily Life
1) Sequential Operations are like waking up, Getting ready and going to School.
2) Conditional Operations are like if it is Weekend we do not need to go to school else if it is a
weekday then we have to go to school.
3) Iterative Operations are Operations like if we like a food item we will eat until we feel it is
heavy.
Difference between them from Pseudo Code
1) Sequential are Operations that are carried out timely in daily life but some may not be
initialized always whereas in PseudoCode we have to initialize everything.
2) Conditional also needs initialization whereas in daily life we need not initialize.
3) Iterative are Operations that where a sequential flow is followed and in daily life they can start
anytime.

Mosquitoes resistant to the pesticide DDT first appeared in India in 1959, but now are found
throughout the world. Graph the data in the table below. Examine the graph, hypothesize why the
percentage of mosquitoes resistant to DDT rose rapidly. Suggest an explanation for the global
spread of DDT resistance.
Solution
DDT is an effective broad spectrum insecticide. However, since it is persistant in nature and does
not degrade easily, its use is banned in many countries like US. Malarial outbreaks spread by
infected mosquitoes are controlled by spraying DDT in the affected areas. DDT sprays are lethal
to the mosquitoes in general and immediately declines their growing populations. However,
mosquitoes have a short life cycle, they are rapidly multiplying populations. Thus they can
undergo beneficial mutations at a faster rate and can quickly develop resistance to the attack of
insecticides such as DDT. It is always easier for a species with shorter life span to aquire genetic
changes and develop resistance to the changing environment.
DDT-resistant mosquitoes which may occur at very low frequency are naturally selected for
survival than to DDT-sensitive populations. Thus the given graph shows an exponential increase
in the population of DDT resistant mosquitoes..

How many different samples of size n = 2 can be selected from this population if you sample
without replacement?
Please help, thank you!
Solution
the population contains four elements: 6,2,5,4
the sample size is n=2. the sample is drawn by without replacement.
so from 4 elements we can select 2 elements in 4C2 ways.
a) number of different samples: 4C2=6 [answer]
b)the possible samples are-
(2,4) (2,5) (2,6) (4,5) (4,6) (5,6)
c) the sample means are [ for (a,b) xbar=(a+b)/2 ]
for (2,4) xbar=3
(2,5) xbar=3.5
(2,6) xbar=4
(4,5) xbar=4.5
(4,6) xbar=5
(5,6) xbar=5.5
d) as the sample is drawn using simple random sampling without replacement. all the samples
are equally likely.
hence the sampling distribution of xbar is
option d) p(xbar)=1/6 for all values of xbar=
d) the correct histogram is option b) [top right]
because it has bars for all the values of xbar=3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 with equal length.
e) population mean mu= (6+2+4+5)/4=4.25
f) none of the samples produce a value of xbar equal to mu..

How can an organization\'s ability to pay be determined and what impact would that information
have on pay level decisions?
Solution
There are four key elements in Developing Pay Levels:
For all them is needed information. Pay levels and Job structure go together, to develop pay
levels is required external information, which ones are current market salaries? and to update
organizational pay levels with respect the market trend to keep talented people aboard. It is a
constant research effort to collecting information.
In the same way, job structure is a research effort too, but it is internal, it is about to be well-
informed of job descriptions and to promote internal equity, it is collecting information too..

Explain the intercellular junctions found on the lateral surface of an epithelial cell starting from
the apical pole and progressing to the basal pole of the cell. How is the terminal bar seen on a
light microscope related?
Solution
Epithelia are tissues composed of closely aggregated cells that cover most body surfaces,
cavities, and tubes. Surface epithelia form continuous sheets that can have one or multiple cell
layers. Several different types of cell junctions mediate physical strength and cell communication
within the epithelium. A basement membrane lies beneath the epithelium and separates it from
underlying tissue; because blood vessels do not penetrate the basement membrane, nutrients like
oxygen and metabolites reach the epithelium by diffusion. Epithelia are polarized, with an apical
surface that faces the external environment and a basal surface that faces the basement
membrane. Microvilli are small processes that project from the apical surface of most types of
epithelial cells, greatly increasing the surface area. They are notably found at the intestinal brush
border and in the proximal convoluted tubule of the kidney. Stereocilia are unusually long, non-
motile microvilli that are found on the surface epithelium in the epididymis and ductus deferens.
Cilia are actively motile processes with a complex internal structure found on the epithelial
lining of the respiratory tract and the female reproductive tract. The basement membrane, a thin
non-cellular layer, intervenes between the epithelium and the connective tissue. This membrane
is 30 to 60 nanometers thick and made up of collagenous and non-collagenous glycoproteins and
proteoglycans. It provides structural support for the epithelium and serves as a selective barrier
for the movement of materials to and from the supporting tissue. Using light microscopy,
terminar bar appears as a bar at the apical surface of the cell, wherein the structures listed cannot
be resolved. With electron microscopy, the terminal bar can be visually disseminated into these
structures. The terminal bar is located on the lateral surface of epithelial cells, where the lateral
surface meets the apical surface. It should not be confused with the Terminal web, which is an
actinous web underlying microvilli on specialized epithelial cells.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
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.

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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Philosophy questionExplain the principle known as Ockhams Razor..pdf
1. Philosophy question
Explain the principle known as Ockham's Razor. Then, explain how Churchland appeals to that
principle in his Argument from Simplicity.
Finally, provide your critical evaluation of the situation. Do you agree or disagree with
Churchland's argument? Justify your choice by appealing to reasons and/or evidence.
Solution
The principle states that "Entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily." Sometimes it is
quoted in one of its original Latin forms to give it an air of authenticity:
"Pluralitas non est ponenda sine neccesitate"
"Frustra fit per plura quod potest fieri per pauciora"
"Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem"
In fact, only the first two of these forms appear in his surviving works and the third was written
by a later scholar. William used the principle to justify many conclusions, including the
statement that "God's existence cannot be deduced by reason alone." That one didn't make him
very popular with the Pope.
Many scientists have adopted or reinvented Occam's Razor, as in Leibniz's "identity of
observables" and Isaac Newton stated the rule: "We are to admit no more causes of natural
things than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances."
The most useful statement of the principle for scientists is
"when you have two competing theories that make exactly the same predictions, the simpler
one is the better."
In physics we use the razor to shave away metaphysical concepts. The canonical example is
Einstein's theory of special relativity compared with Lorentz's theory that ruler's contract and
clocks slow down when in motion through the ether. Einstein's equations for transforming
spacetime are the same as Lorentz's equations for transforming rulers and clocks, but Einstein
and Poincaré recognised that the ether could not be detected according to the equations of
Lorentz and Maxwell. By Occam's razor it had to be eliminated.
The principle has also been used to justify uncertainty in quantum mechanics. Heisenberg
deduced his uncertainty principle from the quantum nature of light and the effect of
measurement.
Paul Churchland (1984) states that by itself Occam's razor is inconclusive regarding duality. In a
similar way, Dale Jacquette (1994) stated that Occam's razor has been used in attempts to justify
2. eliminativism and reductionism in the philosophy of mind. Eliminativism is the thesis that the
ontology of folk psychologyincluding such entities as "pain", "joy", "desire", "fear", etc.,
are eliminable in favor of an ontology of a completed neuroscience.
Consider, for example, the following parallel argument from Paul Churchland (1988, p. 32): I
cannot doubt that Mohammed Ali was a famous heavyweight boxer but can doubt that Cassius
Clay was a famous heavyweight boxer. Following Descartes, it ought to be that Ali is not Clay
(though in fact Clay was a famous heavyweight and identical to Ali). By way of reply, surely it is
possible for an evil demon to deceive me about whether Mohammed Ali was a famous
heavyweight boxer. So, the dualist might insist, the case of mind is unique in its immunity from
doubt. It is only with reference to our own mental states that we can be said to know incorrigibly.
