Finding what’s unclear
The whole section is very interesting and well developed, as usual. The problems are with small issues of clarity.
-
vagueness
maybe use "ambiguiity"
-
The question any argument about abortion needs to resolve, of course, is whether a fetus can be considered a human being, not whether a fetus has human cells. So this ambiguity of meaning means that the reason and the claim are not talking about the same thing. The reason doesn’t really lead to the claim.
This is very clear. What if you deleted "hair and toenails" and just end that sentence with DNA? Then I think the confusing example could just be deleted...starting with, "We can tell that the above argument....." Continuing to and including, "Therefore cutting hair and nails should be illegal." After that you would have your good explanation, "The question any argument about abortion needs to resolve..."
-
We can tell that the above argument is faulty if we substitute "fetus" for "hair" to construct a similar argument: No medical professional should be allowed to intentionally harm a human. Surely our hair and fingernails are human, not animal. Therefore cutting hair and nails should be illegal.
I'm confused here because you say the problem lies in using "human" as a noun, and then as an adjective. But you do the same thing in your new example (in italics). Also I think you mean, substitute "hair" for "fetus."
-
In that case, we might want to think about how one clarification or another might affect our assessment. We can specify in our assessment that we support the argument if it means what we think it means but not if it means something else.
Not too clear. What do you mean by "one clarification or another?" Do you mean a clarification needed in a side point as opposed to a central point? And how does the next sentence follow? This last sentence in the little paragraph doesn't seem to have to do with the first. Are the three sentences three different examples of how the problem may not be too serious? In that case, you have to make that clearer.
-
if it is a side point rather than a central point that needs to be clarified.
if the lack of clarification occurs in a side point, rather than a central point.
-
to claim in the argument and whether there is an obvious way to clarify the argument or not.
to claim and whether there is an obvious way to clarify the argument or not.

yet she is talking about not keeping people out.
and yet she is not talking about keeping people out.
-
some control
some kind of regulatory control,
-
Or we might suggest that she left the concept of "help" ambiguous because there is no good answer to these questions: there is no satisfactory way to offer people a better life where they came from, and we cannot endlessly support them at the border.
I find this confusing. The two examples of why there is no good answer to these questions don't seem to follow or connect with the idea of leaving the concept of "help" ambiguous.
-
left
leave
-

discontent?

But we might find it important to ask where she draws
But where does she draw the line....
-

they may be wondering if it means access to abortion across racial and economic groups or access to birth control or sex education or some combination of all of those.
They may wonder if reproductive justice means access to abortion across racial and economic groups. Or, might it only mean access to birth control or sex education. Does it mean some combination of all three?
-
Even if readers are
Readers may or may not be aware of the different options women might have if they are experiencing an unwanted or risky pregnancy.
-
For example, “We should all support reproductive justice.”
This is not a complete sentence, but I am not sure if it matters or not.

Mitosis is divided into a series of phases—prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase—that result in the division of the cell nucleus (Figure 1.3.21.3.2\PageIndex{2}). Karyokinesis is also called mitosis.

Interphase
I really enjoy this whole section because it is such a crucial and fundamental process to genetics so this allows me to come back and have a reference guide in case I forget some of the finer details along the way
-
Note that the two sister chromatids, which are held together by cohesin proteins, are still counted as a single chromosome until they are split apart during mitosis.
This was a really great note. When first beginning to read the text I was confused on what it meant by two sister chromatids, that are counted for only one chromosome.

DNA topoisomerases are, therefore, essential in the unwinding, replication, and rewinding of the circular, supercoiled bacterial DNA. In order for the long molecule of DNA to fit within the bacterium, the DNA must be supercoiled. However, this supercoiled DNA must be uncoiled and relaxed in order for DNA polymerase to bind for DNA replication and RNA polymerase to bind for transcription of the DNA.
First look at the supercoiled I didn't understand how it had to unwind and how that occur. Though after some reasearch it is a bit clear. Still confusing to me though.

Euchromatin is more loosely packed, and tends to contain genes that are being transcribed, when compared to the more densely compacted heterochromatin, which is rich in repetitive sequences and tends not to be transcribed.

In each case, the phase of the wave function for each of the 2p orbitals is positive for the lobe that points along the positive axis and negative for the lobe that points along the negative axis. It is important to emphasize that these signs correspond to the phase of the wave that describes the electron motion, not to positive or negative charges.
for all 2P orbitals there is a positive lobe and a negative lobe which corresponds to the phase of the wave that describes the electron (not the charge)
-
when r is very small, the surface area of a spherical shell is so small that the total probability of finding an electron close to the nucleus is very low; at the nucleus, the electron probability vanishes
r is small = surface area small = total probability of finding an electron close to the nucleus is small (almost vanishes)
-
At very large values of r, the electron probability density is very small but not zero.
electron probably is never 0

The pentose sugar in DNA is deoxyribose, and in RNA, the sugar is ribose (Figure 1.1.11.1.1\PageIndex{1}). The difference between the sugars is the presence of the hydroxyl group on the second carbon of the ribose and hydrogen on the second carbon of the deoxyribose (so deoxyribose is "missing" an -OH group). The carbon atoms of the sugar molecule are numbered as 1′, 2′, 3′, 4′, and 5′ (1′ is read as “one prime”).
The wording of this was very confusing to me, the diagram (above) showed so many carbons I was unsure. Which way do I read the DNA?

The aging process actually begins during early adulthood. Around the age of 30, many changes begin to occur in different parts of the body. For example, the lens of the eye starts to stiffen and thicken, resulting in changes in vision (usually affecting the ability to focus on close objects). Sensitivity to sound decreases; this happens twice as quickly for men as for women. Hair can start to thin and become gray around the age of 35, although this may happen earlier for some individuals and later for others. The skin becomes drier and wrinkles start to appear by the end of early adulthood. This includes a decline in response time and the ability to recover quickly from physical exertion. The immune system also becomes less adept at fighting off illness, and reproductive capacity starts to decline (Boundless, 2016).
Hair begins to grey and grow thin during the early adulthood.

idea that approaching an activity with a positive attitude about your potential success is the best strategy. We need to build a positive attitude about doing something we are afraid to do.
Meh. This is a reflection of the same systems of toxic positivity elsewhere in the world. Yes, there's something to be said for steering the ship of your mind in a direction opposite of doom, but stifling your legitimate fear or apprehension with cliches of "think positive" sounds like it would only exacerbate it. How about instead, "it's ok to be nervous. Everyone feels nervous." Additionally, us as ethical listeners/audience members can have some grace for the real human emotions of the speaker.

Over millions of years of evolution, mitochondria and chloroplasts have become more specialized and today they cannot live outside the cell. Mitochondria and chloroplasts have striking similarities to bacteria cells. They have their own DNA, which is separate from the DNA found in the nucleus of the cell. And both organelles use their DNA to produce many proteins and enzymes required for their function. A double membrane surrounding both mitochondria and chloroplasts is further evidence that each was ingested by a primitive host. The two organelles also reproduce like bacteria, replicating their own DNA and directing their own division. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has a unique pattern of inheritance. It is passed down directly from mother to child, and it accumulates changes much more slowly than other types of DNA. Because of its unique characteristics, mtDNA has provided important clues about evolutionary history. For example, differences in mtDNA are examined to estimate how closely related one species is to another.
There is compelling evidence that mitochondria and chloroplasts were once primitive bacterial cells. This evidence is described in the endosymbiotic theory. Symbiosis occurs when two different species benefit from living and working together. When one organism actually lives inside the other it’s called endosymbiosis. The endosymbiotic theory describes how a large host cell and ingested bacteria could easily become dependent on one another for survival, resulting in a permanent relationship.

or my conscience (I thanked God) was burdened with nothing.
Here Anne demonstrates her direct relationship with God, which is exactly how she got here.
-
TO satisfy your expectation
Anne Askew knows she is not in the wrong. This examination's sole purpose serves as a courtesy. Anne's sharp quick wit is brilliant, and not often seen in cannon literature.
By stating the purpose of the examination, Anne shows her power over the inquisitors. She may not have governmental power, but her ability to properly interpret the Bible gives her power.
-
Then I asked him, if he were certayne and sure, that it was true that he had spoken. And he sayd he knew well the booke was of I. Frithes making. Then I asked him if he were not ashamed for to iudge of the booke before hee saw it within, or yet knew the truth therof.
I think this portion really well describes the debate between Protestants and Catholics on matters of interpretation and reading of the bible. It's hard to determine what the truth is in any manner, and the relationship between these two religions exemplified that fact.
-
I answered, I would not throw pearles amōg swine, for Acornes were good enough
This phrase stuck with me for a multitude of reasons, but I think it's a great example of Anne's witty and cunning nature, and it also shows how she truly felt about the men persecuting and interrogating her.
-
confesse my selfe here a sinner before the throne of hys heauenly maiestie, desiring his forgeuenes
This passage especially makes me wish that I could hear Anne's tone because I do believe she thinks that she's a sinner (as most Christians would say they are) but the implication here is that Anne is a sinner because of the way she practices her faith, which Anne probably wouldn't have said unless she were under duress.
-
the scripture doth teach me.
I think this is a really great example of Anne's sola scriptura approach to her faith. Under questioning, she maintains her commitment to scripture alone as the source of God's direction.
-
Then I shewed him the 7. and 17 chap. of the actes of the Apostles, what Stephen and paule had said therein. Wherupon he asked me how I took those sentences? I answered, I would not throw pearles amōg swine, for Acornes were good enough
Here Anne is referencing the 7th and 17th chapters of Acts, and what happens in them. In the 7th chapter Stephen is on trial where he explains the line of Abraham and how God was on their side through all of the difficulties the Israelites faced. He referenced Jacob, Joseph and Moses, and how Moses got them out of Egypt. Everyone who heard this got mad at him and stoned him to death, but at the end of his life he asked God to forgive those who killed him.
The 17th chapter of Acts follows Paul as he goes to Thessalonica, Berea, and Athens. He attempts to preach the scriptures at the Jewish synagogues in each place. In Thessalonica he was forced to leave because of rioting. In Berea he was received better, but then the Thessalonicans heard he was there they went to Berea and he was again forced to leave. Paul preached in Athens and some believed him while others did not.
Anne's use of these passages demonstrates the fact that she knows scripture, and when she was asked how she "took those sentences" is referring to how she interprets those passages. By responding the way she did, she is confirming that she interpreted the scripture without being super obvious about it. This is because she doesn't reference either Stephen or Paul in her response, but rather references Matthew 7.6 where Jesus uses the same words to say that we should not give what is holy to those who are not, because they will ruin it. So by using this verse to respond she is demonstrating she does know the bible, but she is not going to provide him an answer.
-
Then Wrisley Lord Chauncellour, sent to Anne Askew letters, offring to her the kyngs pardon, if she would recant. Who refusing once to looke vpon them, made this answer agayne: that she came not thether to deny her lord and Maister. Then were the letters likewise offered vnto the other, who in lyke manner followyng the constancie of the woman, denied not onely to receyue them, but also to looke vpon them. Whereupon the Lord Mayor commaundyng fire to be put vnto them, cryed wyth a lowde voyce, Fiat iustitia.
As we discussed in class, Anne's consistency and determination stands out. The king tried one more time to persuade Anne to change her beliefs; however, she did not. In the King's final attempt to get Anne to recant really demonstrates the king desire for Catholicism to be the beliefs of all. His many attempts sort of lead me to believe he did not want to kill Anne. However, he saw her beliefs to be dangerous to himself and others, so killing her was 1. a must 2. an example of what others should not do.

This room is their mother and father, far more important in their lives than their real parents.
As parents, they didn't care the feelings and emotion changing of their two kids but using the smart room to replace their position.

And suddenly they realized why those other screams had sounded familiar.
The children were fantasizing about their parents being eaten by lions.

And suddenly they realized why those other screams had sounded familiar.
The children had been recreating a scene of their parents death, which is why the screams were familiar to them.
-
“Did you leave them in the nursery?”
This was not a good idea to leave the two alone in there.
-
They screamed and danced around and threw things. They shouted and cried and called them rude names and jumped on the furniture.
The children are indeed very spoiled and undisciplined.

Mr. and Mrs. Hadley screamed.
This proves that they both got killed by the lions in the nursery.

-
The veldt remained; the lions remained.
The room is now refusing to obey his commands.
-
The children thought lions, and there were lions. The children thought zebras, and there were zebras. Sun – sun. Giraffes – giraffes. Death and death.
The nursery is able to recreate anything that its users desire.

And here were the lions now, fifteen feet away. They looked so real, so powerful and shockingly real, that you could feel the hairs stand up on the back of your neck
This is an extremely frightening sight.

The kids are too spoiled and I feel like theyre lazy and don't really do much.

They want to see you apply and use in your writing the concepts you've read about. This is called text-based writing. Though different from a multiple-choice exam, academic writing also requires you to demonstrate your learning. So whatever writing assignment you receive, inspect it closely for what concepts it asks you to bring into your writing.

In addition to reading attentively, you’ll need to think critically as you read: separating fact from opinion, recognizing biases and assumptions, and making inferences. Inferences are how we, as readers, connect the dots: an inference is a belief (or statement) about something unknown made on the basis of something known. You smell smoke; you infer fire. Inferences are conclusions or interpretations that we arrive at, based upon the known factors we discover from our reading.
This is the main idea of this section which is reading critically

For example, if you go over to a friend's house and they point at the sofa and say, "Don't sit there; Candy came over with her baby again," what could you logically conclude? First, you know there must be a reason not to sit where your friend is pointing. Further, you know that the reason to not sit there is related to the fact that Cindy just visited with her baby. You don't know what exactly happened, but you can infer enough and don't need to ask any more questions to know that you do not want to sit there.
On this example, you are basically filling in the blanks by inferring because it may be rude to ask or don't want to worry too much because it's not what you came in for.
Reading between the lines it is.

Soon an African veldt appeared

This room is their mother and father, far more important in their lives than their real parents
They have been spoiled too much.

My advice to you is to have the whole damn room torn down and your children brought to me every day during the next year for treatment
They think the kids are in some sort of negative emotional state and they don't want to tell/don't know how to tell the parents.

All the disagreement over immigration policy I have been hearing about in the news lately reminds me that while I believe in the rule of law, I feel profoundly uncomfortable with the idea of keeping people out who are desperate to come in. Is illegal immigration actually wrong? Is it unethical to cross a border without permission? I don’t have a clear vision yet of what the right border policy would be, and I admit that completely open borders would put our security at risk. But surely there are ways to regulate the border without criminalizing people who are driven by need and good intentions. If I were raising children in an impoverished third-world community plagued by violence, and if I had a chance to get my family to the U.S., I would take it. I would try to cross a border illegally so my children would get enough to eat and would have a more stable childhood and a chance at a better education and a better career. What parent would sit on their hands and tell themself, “I want to give my child a better life, but oh well. If I don’t have the papers, I guess it would be wrong”? If most of us, under desperate circumstances, would cross the border without permission and feel no moral qualms about doing so, then we must recognize this crossing as an ethical, reasonable act. If it is ethical and reasonable, then how can either a wall or a detention center be on the side of justice? We must find a policy that treats migrants as we would want to be treated--with empathy, respect, and offers of help.
I mean but the fact we all feel this when when economics are set aside and we cause most of the issues happening in neighboring countries and we still don't have a better program then caging family units seperatly and caging them and individuals for long periods of time in un healthy environments is sad

Table 4.4.14.4.1\PageIndex{1}: UV absorbance cutoffs of various common solvents
I would add the cuttoffs to a few experimentally key solvents as follows:
-Acetonitrile: 195
-Chloroform: 245
-DMSO: 265
Reasons:
-Acetonitrile has one of the better UV cuttoffs among standard solvents along with water and ethanol, but its ability to dissolve compounds is a bit different relative to water or ethanol so the three represent a nice range of potent solvents that together cover a rather broad range of potential solutes with an excellent UV cuttoff. Additionally acetonitrile is one of the most common solvents for HPLC for which UV is the most common detector used.
Chloroform: An extremely powerful organic solvent for more aliphatic compounds with a middling UV cuttoff. While it is chloroform-D1 (i.e. CDCl3) that is used for NMR experiments, its cuttoff is very close to that of regular chloroform, and it is very common for busy researchers to try and reuse their NMR sample for other analytical experiments including UV.
-DMSO: poor cutoff and generally not a great solvent for UV work, but it is one of the most popular solvents after water for biologists to dissolve compounds in, and biologists frequently make use of UV for quantifying compound concentration.
