20. Amphibian and Reptilian Anatomy and Physiology
This document provides an overview of amphibian and reptilian anatomy and physiology. It summarizes their taxonomy, ectothermic metabolism, integumentary systems, vision, cardiovascular and respiratory systems, hearing, and other key anatomical features. Unique characteristics are described for reptiles and amphibians in each system compared to mammals. The focus is on comparing and contrasting their anatomical adaptations.
Reptilia
This document summarizes the major groups of reptiles. It describes five orders: Sauria (lizards), Serpentes (snakes), Testudines (turtles), Crocodylia (crocodiles), and Rhynchocephalia (tuataras). It provides key characteristics of reptiles such as having scaly skin, laying amniotic eggs, and being ectothermic. Additionally, it highlights unique features of different reptile groups, including snakes' specialized anatomy for swallowing large prey whole and crocodiles guarding nests until hatchlings emerge.
Chapter 4 - Skin and Body Membranes
Body membranes line body cavities and surfaces, and fall into two groups: epithelial and connective tissue membranes. Epithelial membranes include the cutaneous, mucous, and serous membranes which contain an epithelial sheet and underlying connective tissue. The skin is the cutaneous membrane and functions to protect the body, regulate temperature, and synthesize vitamin D. The skin has an outer epidermis and deeper dermis layer. Skin appendages like hair, nails, and glands aid homeostasis. Imbalances can include infections and allergies of the skin.
Butterfly
The document outlines the 4 stages in the life cycle of a butterfly:
1) Egg stage - Eggs are laid on leaves and take 1-3 weeks to develop into caterpillars.
2) Caterpillar or larva stage - The caterpillar emerges from the egg and eats voraciously, shedding its skin several times as it grows.
3) Pupa stage - The caterpillar forms a cocoon and undergoes metamorphosis within, emerging after weeks or months as a butterfly.
4) Adult stage - The butterfly emerges from its cocoon with wings and a familiar form, living on average only a few weeks before the cycle repeats.
Information Security Cryptography ( L02- Types Cryptography)
talk about types of cryptography based of types of key , text cryptography and Strength encryption system.
cutaneous respiration in frog
Frogs have the ability to respire through their skin, known as cutaneous respiration, which acts as a secondary respiratory system. Cutaneous respiration allows frogs to absorb oxygen from the water through their moist skin when submerged or hibernating, utilizing specialized blood vessels. This unique respiratory adaptation permits frogs to live both on land and in water despite lacking gills.
Phylum mollusca
The phylum Mollusca includes soft-bodied animals with shells, including gastropods, bivalves, polyplacophora, and cephalopods. They have bilateral symmetry, triploblastic bodies with three germ layers, and a coelom body cavity. Their basic body plan includes a foot, mantle, visceral mass, and sometimes a shell. They have complete digestive and open or closed circulatory systems. Most reproduce sexually but some can reproduce asexually. They have nerves, ganglia, and eyespots or advanced eyes. They respire and excrete through gills, nephridia, and an anus. Molluscs fill diverse ecological roles
Class Aves
Birds are characterized by feathers, wings, a beak or bill, laying eggs, a lightweight skeleton, and molting. Feathers are made of keratin and have several functions, including flight, insulation, incubation, courtship, and waterproofing. There are two main types of feathers - pennaceous feathers which form the wings and tails and provide lift, and plumulaceous feathers which are wispy and insulative. Birds have strong flight muscles and either monogamous or polygamous reproductive behaviors, where they build nests and care for altricial or precocial offspring after laying clutches of eggs.

Scientific Method - Portfolio Presentation Example
The student conducted an experiment to determine if water has the same mass in liquid and solid form. They weighed ice cubes and then melted the ice and weighed the liquid water. In two of the three trials, the masses were equal, supporting the hypothesis. However, in one trial the liquid water had a slightly higher mass, possibly due to sources of error like not fully drying the beaker. The student concluded that while the masses are nearly equal, more trials could provide more definitive evidence.

The scientific method is used to systematically study and understand living organisms.
Scientific Method
The document outlines the 7-step scientific method process used in class to conduct scientific investigations:
1. Formulate a question based on observations.
2. Research the question to see if it has been studied before and understand relevant scientific concepts.
3. Form a testable hypothesis predicting the outcome.
4. Conduct an experiment to test the hypothesis, carefully recording all data and observations.
5. Analyze the data for trends that either support or refute the hypothesis.
6. Draw conclusions about whether the data supports the hypothesis.
7. Communicate the results so others can analyze and build upon the findings.
Scientific Method Variables (Teach)
The scientific method involves designing experiments to test hypotheses. It requires identifying:
1) A change variable that is intentionally altered between trials.
2) A responding variable that is measured to see the effects of the change variable.
3) Control variables that could also influence the responding variable and must be kept constant. Proper experiments only vary one factor at a time to determine causation.

1-2 Using Scientific Method
The scientific method is a series of steps used by scientists to solve problems and answer questions:
1) State the problem or question
2) Gather information through research
3) Form a hypothesis or proposed explanation
4) Perform an experiment to test the hypothesis
5) Analyze the experimental data
6) Draw a conclusion about whether the hypothesis was supported or needs to be revised.
Chp. 1.1 1.2 notes
Scientific thinking begins with making observations of natural phenomena in a careful, systematic manner. These observations produce data that can be quantitative (expressed as numbers) or qualitative (descriptive characteristics). Scientists use data to make inferences and propose hypotheses, which are testable scientific explanations. The scientific method involves identifying a problem, researching it, proposing hypotheses, designing experiments to test hypotheses, analyzing results, and drawing conclusions. Experiments aim to test only one variable at a time and identify independent and dependent variables. Repeating experiments allows scientists to determine if results can be reproduced, establishing theories that unify broad evidence. Scientific theories and laws enable predictions but may be revised as new evidence emerges.

Introduction to Science and Chemistry
1. Science is a way of exploring and explaining the natural world using a process designed to reduce errors. It consists of various disciplines that study either physical phenomena like physics and chemistry or living organisms like biology.
2. The scientific method involves making observations, asking questions, developing hypotheses, making predictions, testing predictions through experiments, analyzing results, and peer reviewing findings. It allows scientific understanding to advance through evaluation and dissemination of information.
3. Scientific theories are hypotheses that have been rigorously tested and accepted as generally correct, but cannot be proven absolutely. Laws summarize scientific facts about nature. The body of scientific knowledge is stable but open to improvement through testing.

This document provides an introduction to science and the scientific method. It defines science as using observation and experimentation to discover facts and formulate principles or laws that can be tested. Physical science is defined as the study of non-living matter, including chemistry which examines how matter interacts, and physics which examines energy and its effects on matter. The scientific method is then described as a step-by-step process scientists use to answer questions, involving stating a problem, forming a hypothesis, experimentation, analysis, and conclusions. The key aspects of experiments like variables, controls, and qualitative and quantitative observations are also outlined.
Lecture 1.1 & 1.3- What is Chem?
Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes matter undergoes. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. The scientific method is a systematic process used to solve scientific problems and involves making observations, developing hypotheses to explain observations, designing experiments to test hypotheses, and developing theories based on experimental evidence. A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for an observation that can be tested in an experiment, where the independent variable is manipulated and the dependent variable is measured. Repeated experimental evidence can lead a hypothesis to become a scientific theory or law.

The independent variable was the description of the instructor as either "warm" or "cold". The dependent variable was the rating subjects gave the instructor after the lecture. The experiment had a control (some subjects read the "warm" description) and experimental group (some subjects read the "cold" description). Only one variable (the description of the instructor) was tested between the two groups.

This document provides an overview of key concepts in experimental psychology. It defines experimental psychology as using experimental procedures to study psychological issues and behavior scientifically. It discusses Wilhelm Wundt as the "father" of experimental psychology for establishing the first psychology laboratory. The scientific method aims to eliminate human biases through systematic empirical observation and testing of hypotheses. Experimental designs involve manipulating independent variables and measuring dependent variables to test theories while controlling for other factors. Between-subjects and within-subjects designs are described for assigning participants to experimental conditions.
8th Grade Chapter 1- nature of science
This document provides an overview of the key concepts in science:
1) Science is the process of understanding the natural world through experiments and developing theories based on evidence. Scientists conduct research to solve problems and create new technologies.
2) There are many branches of science, each studying different aspects of nature. The scientific method involves making observations, formulating hypotheses, conducting experiments, analyzing results, and developing theories.
3) Theories are explanations that are continually tested and can be modified, while scientific laws are fundamental principles that reliably describe natural phenomena. The limits of science are questions that cannot be empirically tested, involving ethics, morality, or other non-empirical domains.

The scientific method involves 6 key steps: 1) making observations of a problem, 2) forming a hypothesis to explain the problem, 3) designing an experiment to test the hypothesis with one independent variable and controls, 4) collecting data from the experiment, 5) drawing a conclusion based on the data, and 6) retesting the experiment to verify the results. The scientific method is a process used to systematically solve problems through empirical investigation and experimentation.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

- 3. Forms of Scientific Inquiry Discovery or Descriptive Science – Observation – Qualitative vs. Quantitative data
- 4. Types of Logic Inductive Reasoning – Derive generalizations based on specific observations
- 5. Types of Logic Inductive Reasoning – Derive generalizations based on specific observations Deductive Reasoning - Specific predictions follow from general premise
- 6. Forms of Scientific Inquiry Discovery or Descriptive Science – Observation – Qualitative vs. Quantitative data Hypothesis-Based Science
- 7. Scientific Design Scientific knowledge begins with an observation and a proposed explanation. Explanation called a hypothesis A hypothesis is testable and falsifiable In science hypotheses are tested by using them to make predictions about how a particular system will behave
- 9. Theories and Natural Laws Theory: a description of the world that covers a relatively large number of phenomena and has met many observational and experimental tests Law of Nature: theory (or group of theories) that has been tested extensively and seems to apply everywhere in the universe-they become part of the conceptual framework of a particular field
- 10. Scientific Method in Action We use the scientific method in everyday life Example: You got in your car to drive up here and turned the key but the car wouldn’t start (observation)
- 11. Scientific Method in Action Example: You got in your car to drive up here and turned the key but the car wouldn’t start (observation) Hypothesis: There is something wrong with the car
- 12. Scientific Method in Action Example: You got in your car to drive up here and turned the key but the car wouldn’t start (observation) Hypothesis: There is something wrong with the car Predictions: battery dead, ignition problem, out of gas
- 13. Scientific Method in Action Testpredictions: turn on headlights, check spark plug wires, dip stick in gas tank
- 14. Scientific Method in Action Test predictions: turn on headlights, check spark plug wires, dip stick in gas tank Analyze results: headlights work, strong ignition spark, no gas on dip stick-gas gauge reads half full
- 15. Scientific Method in Action Test predictions: turn on headlights, check spark plug wires, dip stick in gas tank Analyze results: headlights work, strong ignition spark, no gas on dip stick-gas gauge reads half full Draw conclusion: gauge inaccurate, out of gas
- 16. Important terms: Independent (manipulated) variable: condition or event under study (choose 1) .Graphing-x axis Dependent (responding) variable: condition that could change under the influence of the independent variable (measure this). Y-axis Controlled variables: conditions which could effect the outcome of the experiment so they must be held constant between groups.
- 17. experimental group: group(s) subjected to the independent variable control group: group not subjected to the independent variable, used as measuring stick reproducibility: producing the same result consistently to verify result. It is therefore important to describe your experimental design in enough detail for others to perform the same experiment.
