The areas closer to the Persian Gulf, known as Lower Mesopotamia, in particular, were attractive to early settlers because they had extremely fertile soils. People built some of the earliest cities, including Uruk, Eridu, and Ur, in Lower Mesopotamia.
The early settlers who originally settled in Mesopotamia, already have to had knowledge of how agriculture can benefit from carefully picking out farming land. They also seemingly had knowledge of irrigation, which most likely came from multiple settlements across the region all combining and putting their efforts into a larger "First City" between two fertile rivers. Mesopotamia had a headstart on other early civilizations due to its prime real estate.
Also, the essential tasks of preparing food and clothing could be accomplished with a nursing toddler nearby. These tasks that may be consigned as “women’s work” today are among the most important tasks (and very time consuming ones before the industrial revolution) that a human could perform. In fact, they were so time consuming that women would spend most of their day on them, often being assisted by men.
This is a great entry as well, i never thought about how ideal some of these tasks could have been when having to care for a child at the same time. Despite being more organized and closer to being a society, there were still dangers that were presented to our ancestors such as wildlife, bacteria and viruses, and even other tribes or small city like groups. Keeping a child fed, safe and distracted was most likely very important to mothers and could be easily accomplished while simultaneously doing some of the most important tasks like basket weaving, preparing food for long term storage, and tending to whatever settlement there was while men were away hunting.
For example, agriculture contributed to (along with religion and trade) the development of class. Before agriculture, hunter-gatherers divided tasks like seed gathering, grinding, or tool-making.
I think this is a perfect landmark or transition point between our hunter gatherer and nomadic ancestors and the beginning of true civilization. The first Humans who realized that agriculture could be maximized by farming in mineral rich soil like that by riverbanks kickstarted a whole chain that lead to farming, trading, caste societies, as well as religion and philosophy. It really is a crazy example of a "butterfly" effect scenario.
North and South America were the last continents to be settled by humans. Most scholars think that the Americas were populated from Beringia over land. Around 12,000 years ago, mammoth hunting became more common and supported larger populations on both the Asian and American sides of Beringia, a landmass (now divided by the Bering Strait) which at that time connected North America and Asia.
The connection that other animals from the ice age have to humans is really spectacular, considering that most likely if we were not following the migration pattern of Mammoths, Rhinos, and Camels over the bering land bridge, we most likely would have never crossed over to the Americas and hundreds of cultures would have never been possible. It feels like exploration is almost engrained into our DNA the way Homo Sapiens colonized the entire planet and dominated every ecosystem in mere thousands of years.
Like neanderthalensis, Homo sapiens, Homo erectus, Homo habilis, and other hominids all reacted to changing climate conditions. Homo erectus and Homo habilis migrated, hunted, and used fire, while neanderthalensis had some use of language and tools and buried their dead. For millions of years, in fact, hominids had been using slivers of volcanic stone and cutters probably to hack through animal skin. The cutters were often found close together, suggesting that early hominids even had a division of labor between hunters who would have to pursue their prey and butchers who could wait nearby at the butchering site. There is even evidence of task division by gender among neanderthalensis. Multiple sites in Europe show different patterns of wear on male and female teeth, indicating a gendered task division in tasks where teeth were used to hold, break, or strip objects.5
I have always found it so interesting how adaptable we are as both a species as well as our entire ancestral tree. It is amazing if you really think about the odds of our species making it far as we have and how much has been accomplished in that time. That adaptability and teamwork is what has helped our species survive for as long as we have and even enabled us to create long term and complex societies around the world, many without even having knowledge of the others.
Not until around 500,000 years ago did “new species of deer, bovid, rhino, and horse appear” 8 in Europe. Around the same time, the cheetah, saber-tooth tiger, and dirk-tooth cat declined in the region, making more carcasses from the aforementioned species available to hominid foragers.
I often wonder how early hominids figured out which animals were safe to eat and which were not, as well as how different animals were hunted. While much of this knowledge likely came from trial and error, how was it communicated among group members to help everyone avoid danger? How did they learn to hunt animals like rhinos? A rhino is massive and certainly not a friendly creature. These hominids must have learned through deliberate, calculated attempts rather than random attacks. Of course, scavenging from already deceased animals was an option, but I imagine their curiosity and ingenuity eventually led them taking on such formidable beasts as a challenge. I find that idea incredibly fascinating.

I think I am understanding the reason behind why a substance can only be gas or solid at low temperatures but I wanted to confirm with you. Due to the low temperatures they cant move or interact as normal so their particles are reliant on the pressure which is either pulling them apart with a vacuum so drastically that they become a gas or putting them under so much pressure that they get forced together to take up ass little room as possible.

There are a number of advantages to job specialization. Breaking tasks into simple components and making them repetitive reduces the skill requirements of the jobs and decreases the effort and cost of staffing. Training times for simple, repetitive jobs tend to be shorter as well. On the other hand, from a motivational perspective, these jobs are boring and repetitive and therefore associated with negative outcomes such as absenteeism (Campion & Thayer, 1987). Also, job specialization is ineffective in rapidly changing environments where employees may need to modify their approach according to the demands of the situation (Wilson, 1999).

Crazy increase. What happened?
nstead, politicians have focused on encouraging immigration among educated and professional immigrants, also known as “brain drain,” while providing more punitive and militarized immigrant policies, like border patrol, deportation, immigrant detention, and family separation. Pervasive immigration and anti-immigrant policies at both state and federal levels perpetuate nativist discourses of “us” versus “them,” where Latina/o/x immigrants are overwhelmingly portrayed by the media as criminals, invaders, and terrorists. This leads to an illegalized identity that can have serious ramifications. In recent years, elected officials like ex-President Donald Trump have amplified these stereotypes, encouraging the formation of anti-immigrant groups and emboldening unregulated militias who treat the southern border of the United States like a war zone
They use the stereotypes to exagerte them and further instill fear in the ignorant (b/c that's what they are , ignorant) to make belive, that all the deportations they are making is okay. B/c they would most likely not belive it otherwise.
In the United States, early immigration acts (e.g., the Immigration Act of 1875, the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act, and the 1952 Immigration and Nationality Act enforced racial and ethnic (national) quotas on immigrants coming to the United States and, ironically, called for the removal of Native Americans.

Ethnic Studies has always been interdisciplinary in nature, meaning that it combines the strengths and perspectives of multiple disciplines
This helped me understand the core principles from which ethnic studies truly derives from.
Rather, it is the combination and interplay of regulatory sites and regulatory mechanisms that ultimately determines flow into, through, and out of the pathway.
It's fascinating how even a simple cell maintains so much control over its metabolic processes. Even though these regulatory mechanisms seem complex, they're actually the most energy-efficient because they prevent the cell from wasting energy.
16.6: Case Study Conclusion: Bronchitis and Chapter Summary
• Bronchitis Treatment: Inhaling moist air from a humidifier or steamy shower can help loosen and thin mucus, making breathing easier.
• Bronchitis Symptoms: Coughing, sore throat, chest congestion, and coughing up thick mucus.
• Bronchitis Cause: Usually caused by viruses, not bacteria, so antibiotics are generally ineffective.
• Bronchitis Definition: Inflammation of the bronchial tubes, causing narrowing and excessive mucus production.
• Mucus Function and Problem: Mucus traps pathogens but excessive production hinders airflow, leading to coughing.
• Bronchitis Treatment: Thinning mucus for effective coughing through fluids, humidifiers, steam, and expectorants, while avoiding cough suppressants.
• Reason for Pulse Oximetry: To check Sacheen’s blood oxygen level and ensure clogged airways weren’t impacting her oxygen intake.
• Difference Between Acute and Chronic Bronchitis: Acute bronchitis is a short-term condition often caused by a cold or flu, while chronic bronchitis is a long-term condition often caused by smoking and associated with COPD.
• Smoking Cessation Advice: Dr. Tsosie strongly advised Sacheen to quit smoking to prevent future respiratory infections, COPD, and lung cancer.
• Respiratory System Function: Critical for gas exchange and protecting the body from harmful substances in the air.
• Respiratory System Vulnerability: Prone to infections and damage from allergens, mold, air pollution, and cigarette smoke.
• Respiratory System Overview: Comprises the upper respiratory tract (nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx) for air conduction and the lower respiratory tract (trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, lungs) for conduction and gas exchange.
• Respiratory System Defense: The mucociliary escalator, consisting of mucus-producing cells and cilia, protects the lungs by trapping and expelling harmful particles and pathogens.
• Breathing Regulation: The respiratory system, controlled by the brain, regulates breathing rate based on carbon dioxide levels in the blood to maintain homeostasis.
• Breathing Mechanics: Breathing involves inhaling (active process driven by diaphragm contraction) and exhaling (passive process driven by lung elasticity).
• Gas Exchange Definition: The biological process of transferring gases across cell membranes for entering or leaving the blood.
• Gas Exchange Mechanism: Occurs by diffusion across cell membranes, moving down a concentration gradient from high to low concentration.
• Lung Gas Exchange: Takes place in alveoli, where deoxygenated blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide.
• Smoking and COPD: Smoking is the primary cause of COPD, reducing lung elasticity and impairing exhalation.
• Smoking and Lung Cancer: Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer, a malignant tumor characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in the lungs.
• Health Risks of Smoking: Smoking poses numerous health risks, including increased risk of various cancers, cardiovascular disease, and other adverse effects.
• Respiratory System Function: The respiratory system facilitates gas exchange, bringing oxygen into the body and removing carbon dioxide.
• Gas Exchange Mechanism: Oxygen and carbon dioxide flow across membranes based on concentration gradients, moving from areas of higher to lower concentration.
• COPD and Blood pH: COPD can lead to elevated carbon dioxide levels, causing respiratory acidosis and prompting the body to compensate by increasing breathing rate.
• Bronchitis Treatment: Changes to the environment, such as more frequent cleaning, would not help asthma caused by a gene.
• Bronchitis Definition: Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchi, the large and medium-sized airways in the lungs that carry air from the trachea.
• Bronchodilator Definition: A medication that opens constricted airways.

About 90% of the lithogenous sediment in the oceans is though to have come from river discharge, particularly from Asia. Most of this sediment, especially the larger particles, will be deposited and remain fairly close to the coastline, however, smaller clay particles may remain suspended in the water column for long periods of time and may be transported great distances from the source.
If most lithogenous sediment enters the ocean through rivers, how does this affect sediment distribution in areas far from major river systems?
High energy conditions, such as strong currents or waves, usually results in the deposition of only the larger particles as the finer ones will be carried away. Lower energy conditions will allow the smaller particles to settle out and form finer sediments.
This part stood out to me because it shows how sediment characteristics can be used as evidence of past environmental conditions. By looking at grain size, scientists can infer whether an area experienced high energy processes like strong currents or low energy conditions where finer sediments were able to settle.
They also break down how prison labor is exploited as a loophole in the 13th amendment which was supposed to abolish slavery, but allowed slave-labor “as punishment for crime.”

In Chapter 2: “The Ongoing Struggle for Ethnic Studies,” Espinoza-Kulick examines how Ethnic Studies was birthed out of struggle, which helps to define this unique discipline.
that makes a lot of sense because I feel that ethnic studies are important to educate us about the struggles and differences of other people culture and backgrounds.
Ethnic Studies exposes us to larger historical issues, broad socio-cultural topics, philosophies both inherited from our ancestors and rooted in our daily experiences, and the discipline helps us analyze and break down systems of power.
In today's society, racism and prejudice is still an issue, especially with all the deportations going on today and families being separated.

This section on watershed has introduced the most basic features of an exceedingly complex type of natural system -- the physical template, and watershed structure and function. In closing, examine the graphic of watershed dynamics below and think particularly about all the interactions occurring even in this simplified example. It is truly important to appreciate the natural processes at work, and how they are beneficial to our communities as well as our ecosystems. Even more, it is crucial to recognize how change affects watersheds and can jeopardize these benefits in very costly ways, when a normal change becomes great enough to be a change of concern.
Watersheds are natural systems that move water, nutrients, and energy. They support plants, animals, and people. Climate, geology, and the water cycle affect how they work, and small changes can impact ecosystems and our communities. it is important not to disrupte watershed if the water cycle because it can cause floods, low water, or harm plants and animals.
Climatology, the science of climate and its causes, becomes important in understanding regional issues in watershed science (Figure 8.4.18.4.1). Though sometimes used synonymously with weather, climate is actually a distinct term with important ecological ramifications. Climate refers to an aggregate of both average and extreme conditions of temperature, humidity, and precipitation (including type and amount), winds, and cloud cover, measured over an extended period of time. Weather refers to present day environmental conditions; current temperatures and meteorological events make up weather, not climate. Long-term weather trends establish averages which become climatic regimes. Climate heavily influences watershed vegetation communities, stream flow magnitude and timing, water temperature, and many other key watershed characteristics. Geology is defined as the science centered around the study of various earth structures, processes, compositions, characteristics, and histories. Geomorphology, however, refers specifically to the study of the landforms on the earth and the processes that change them over time (Figure 5). Fluvial geomorphology, referring to structure and dynamics of stream and river corridors, is especially important to understanding the formation and alteration of the stream or river channel as well as the flood plain and associated upland transitional zone; this is a critical discipline for effective, long-term watershed management. Figure 3. The physical template determines watershed structure Figure 5. Geomorphology helps explain river and watershed form. Figure 4. Climatic factors One of the life-sustaining cycles we are most familiar with is the hydrologic cycle (Figure 8.4.28.4.2). This cycle is a natural, solar-driven process of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and runoff.
I was wondering about what could happen to a watershed if one part of the hydrologic cycle is changed. According to Google, changes in the water cycle can affect the whole watershed, like causing floods, low water, or harming plants and animals.
Decomposition involves the reduction of energy-rich organic matter (detritus), mostly by microorganisms (fungi, bacteria, and protozoa) to CO2, H2O and inorganic nutrients. Through this process they both release nutrients available for other organisms and transform organic material into energy usable by other organisms. In lakes, much of the decomposition occurs in the waters prior to sedimentation. In the headwater reaches of streams, external sources of carbon from upland forests are a particularly important source of organic material for organisms and decomposition of microscopic particles occurs very rapidly. The bacteria and fungi modify the organic material through decomposition and make it an important food source for invertebrate and vertebrate detritivores, thereby reinserting these nutrients and materials into the watershed’s aquatic and terrestrial food webs. Decomposition is influenced by moisture, temperature, exposure, type of microbial substrate, vegetation, etc. Specifically, temperature and moisture affect the metabolic activity on the decomposing substrate. Nutritional value (as well as palatability) of the decomposing structure will also affect the time involved in complete breakdown and mineralization. Decomposition involves the following processes: The leaching of soluble compounds from dead organic matter Fragmentation Bacterial and fungal breakdown Consumption of bacterial and fungal organisms by animals Excretion of organic and inorganic compounds by animals Clustering of colloidal organic matter into larger particles The process of death and consumption, along with the leaching of soluble nutrients from the decomposing substrate, release minerals contained in the microbial and detrital biomass. This process is known as mineralization.
This section explains how materials return into the ecosystem and support the food web through a decomposition process. It works by breaking down dead organic matter in a watershed. Microorganisms release nutrients and energy that other organisms can use.
Transport and Storage. As matter physically moves through the watershed, there are a number of terms which arise relative to various stages of cycling. Availability refers not just to the presence of an element in a system, but also speaks to the usability of a given agent. For instance, nitrogen gas may be plentiful in and around dam spillways, but N2 is not a usable form for most aquatic organisms, and thus the availability of nitrogen is compromised. Detachment refers to the release of matter from an anchoring point, and its subsequent movement. Transport, a process most evident in stream channels, involves the movement of a material through a system. Deposition refers to a given endpoint within a cycle. Integration refers to the assimilation of matter into a site or organism following depositional processes (see Naiman and Bilby 1998). An example using these terms is included below.
This paragraph defines key terms that describe how materials move and change within a watershed. It shows that matter moves through the watershed in stages. Materials must first be usable, then move, and finally become part of the ecosystem.
One commonly employed technique in modern journalism is the inverted pyramid style. This style requires objectivity and involves structuring a story so that the most important details are listed first for ease of reading. In the inverted pyramid format, the most fundamental facts of a story—typically the who, what, when, where, and why—appear at the top in the lead paragraph, with nonessential information in subsequent paragraphs.
The pyramid is the most effective way to organize a story. the pyrmid basically breaks down the level of importance. This basically describes how the most fundamental facts of a story appear at the top in the lead paragraph, with less needed information in the paragraphs to follow.
Although literary journalism certainly affected newspaper reporting styles, it had a much greater impact on the magazine industry. Because they were bound by fewer restrictions on length and deadlines, magazines were more likely to publish this new writing style than were newspapers. Indeed, during the 1960s and 1970s, authors simulating the styles of both Wolfe and Capote flooded magazines such as Esquire and The New Yorker with articles.
This basically was invented for newspapers, but had a bigger impact on the magazine area. It makes sense because magazines are less strict in terms of deadlines for certain materials. What I highlighted explains how the magazines had the outlet to express themself more for longer and detailed writing.
But interpretive journalism posed a new problem for editors: the need to separate straight objective news from opinions and analysis. In response, many papers in the 1930s and 1940s “introduced weekend interpretations of the past week’s events … and interpretive columnists with bylines.
With everyone turning to interpretive journalism, it became a problem when the writers had to decipher real news from opinion. What they did was make two separate sections for facts and opinions. This basically tells us that both fact and opinion matter when reading texts.
There is a variation of stem and leaf displays that is useful for comparing distributions. The two distributions are placed back to back along a common column of stems. The result is a “back-to-back stem and leaf display.” Figure 2.2.4 shows such a graph. It compares the numbers of TD passes in the 1998 and 2000 seasons.
This is a very helpful way to compare the two distributions because placing them back to back makes differences easy to see. We can see that using the same stems allows for direct comparison meanwhile still showing the exact data values.
Comparing Distributions Often we need to compare the results of different surveys, or of different conditions within the same overall survey. In this case, we are comparing the “distributions” of responses between the surveys or conditions. Bar charts are often excellent for illustrating differences between two distributions.
This is a very effective way to compare distributions because bar charts clearly show differences between groups. They make it easy to see patterns, such as increases, decreases, or similarities across conditions at a glance.

If you usually live, work, and recreate at lower elevations, you might find yourself getting short of breath while doing some of those same things at higher elevations. You may even get a headache or feel sluggish. This is because the molecules are further apart, resulting in air that is less dense, or “rarified”. Although you are filling your lungs, you still are not getting as many oxygen molecules in.

Many writers rely too heavily on summary because it is what they can most easily write
I tend to have the same issue whenever I start to rush on essays I like to summarize more than actual analysis.
Formulate an argument (including a good thesis) and be sure that your final draft is structured around it,
This point really helps because if you were to make an outline for your paper, laying out the summary and the breakdown of the analysis into its own separate points like the effect and importance would help structure and think about your analysis.
Outlining, freewriting, and mapping make it easier to get your thoughts on the page.
This quote is important to me because these examples provided for me can help me analysis better. I always stick to highlighting but having more techniques can help learn better to write better arguments.
Analysis requires breaking something—like a story, poem, play, theory, or argument—into parts so you can understand how those parts work together to make the whole.
I believe this quote is important because analysis helps me understand the text better. Reading a story like Shakespeare takes extra time to read and understand. Although this is extra work for me, it's necessary for me to better understand the story.
Many writers rely too heavily on summary because it is what they can most easily write.
The reason why I choose this quote is because I too prefer a summary over analysis. Analysis to me is over explaining the plot of the story. But with summary, I get a simple synopsis of what happens in the story from beginning to end.
Analysis requires breaking something—like a story, poem, play, theory, or argument—into parts so you can understand how those parts work together to make the whole.
I think the part where I struggle is trying to find evidence throughout the whole work when the argument I’m making mainly has evidence on only a certain section of the work.
Once you figure out what you know about a subject, it’s easier to decide what you want to argue.
I think this is really important because especially when you’re writing a paper on a specific argument, knowing what you’re talking about gives yourself more credibility and allows the audience to consider your stance.
But it’s important that your keep your assignment and your audience in mind as you write.
Summaries are relevant to provide context to the topic you’re discussing. It allows the audience to know what you’re talking about and what specific point or moment you’re referring to.
At the end of every research project, however, participants should always receive a complete debriefing in which all relevant information is given, including the real hypothesis, the nature of any deception used, and how the data are going to be used.
Deception is okay and most of the time necessary for Social Psychological experiments in order to collect information about people without their personal bias. That said, deception is only valid to be used for research purposes as long as the persons being deceived are informed after the experiment.

I find the idea of essentialism especially important because it reveals how stereotypes often disguise themselves as “cultural knowledge.” Saying “they’re just like that culturally” can sound neutral, but it can actually deny people agency and adaptability.
An accumulated pattern of values, beliefs, and behaviors…
Culture as “normal human existence”: This reminds us that culture is embedded in ordinary life, not just in special traditions or national customs—it shapes how we interpret the world in subtle ways.
An expanded version of chaos theory, complexity theory looks to uncover a system's beginning (its “initial conditions”) and to trace development as variables and subsystems are added to combine and shape outcomes in ways that are unpredictable.
What's fascinating about complexity theory is that it's not just about unpredictability... it's also about finding patterns within that unpredictability. Complex systems often exhibit self-organization, where order emerges without central control. Think of how cities develop distinct neighborhoods, how ecosystems stabilize into food webs, or how free markets coordinate resources without anyone orchestrating the whole system.
Hippies in the 1960's, for example, saw themselves in opposition to the cultural mainstream of many Western countries, in political views, in dress, and in attitudes towards work and leisure.
Countercultures like the 1960s hippie movement serve a vital function by questioning assumptions that mainstream culture has stopped examining. When ways of living become "just how things are done," they often persist not because they're optimal but because they're familiar. Countercultures act as a kind of cultural R&D lab, testing alternative approaches to fundamental questions about meaning, community, and how to live. Countercultures also provide a "pressure valve" for people who genuinely don't fit the dominant mold. Not everyone thrives in the prevailing structure, and having alternative spaces and communities can be psychologically essential for those who experience the mainstream as alienating or oppressive.

e found in a 2017 study with colleagues that from 1970 to 2010 metropolitan areas with greater concentrations of immigrants, legal and undocumented combined, have less property crime than areas with fewer immigrants, on average.
That is a very interesting. That is not what I had been lead to believe my whole life.
Nor does our study address the reasons that immigration reduces crime, although there is plenty of other scholarship on that issue.
I am interested in why this might be. I will have to look this up.
undocumented immigrant populations for 154 metropolitan areas
It would be interesting to know which areas they studied.
Work attitudes are the feelings we have toward different aspects of the work environment. Job satisfaction and organizational commitment are two key attitudes that are the most relevant to important outcomes

individuals may resist adopting certain values of the culture in which they were raised or they may be members of ethnic or regional groups which hold different values and exhibit contrasting behaviors from the majority. While distinctions such as individualism versus collectivism can be helpful in some contexts, they are less useful in describing or predicting individual behavior.
Treating cultural categories as predictive risks mistaking context for destiny. Personal history, social position, subcultural affiliation, and lived experience often exert as much influence on behavior as national or cultural norms. Recognizing this complicates our understanding of culture, but it also makes intercultural engagement more ethical, shifting the focus from assumptions about “how people from that culture behave” to curiosity about how this particular person understands and navigates their world.
His philosophy was to provide a “hand up,” not a “hand out.”

8)TOPIC: In Reading Lolita in Tehran, Nafisi uses The Great Gatsby and her experiences to show how living in the past can ruin the future.
OPINION: Focusing only on the past traps society and makes it repeat mistakes.
SO WHAT? This matters because it teaches us that we must face the present and build the future instead of staying stuck in what already happened.
7)TOPIC: In Reading Lolita in Tehran, Azar Nafisi shows that literature can be powerful enough to resist oppressive governments.
OPINION: Studying Lolita helps students avoid being passive victims and inspires them to resist silently.
SO WHAT? This matters because it shows that education and reading can emotionally free people and give them strength to fight injustice.
6)TOPIC: Khalidi uses a family division in Tennis in Nablus as a symbol of how colonization impacts Palestine.
OPINION: The play shows how colonization divides society and weakens the fight for freedom.
SO WHAT? This matters because it helps the audience feel and understand how political oppression destroys both communities and families.
5)TOPIC: In Ismail Khalidi’s play Tennis in Nablus, Anbara writes about how women’s empowerment is essential for any revolutionary movement.
OPINION: The failure to empower women contributed to the Palestinian struggle against British oppression.
SO WHAT? This matters because it shows that meaningful change only happens when the most oppressed members of society are lifted up.
4)TOPIC: Delia, the main character in Sweat, suffers mental and physical abuse from her husband for years.
OPINION: Hurston makes readers feel empathy for Delia and understand the triple burden of being Black, female, and poor.
SO WHAT? This matters because it helps readers see how hard it is to survive under so many layers of oppression.
3)TOPIC: In Zora Neale Hurston’s short story Sweat, Sykes, a Black man in the Jim Crow South, tries to prove his masculinity.
OPINION: He abuses Delia and cheats on her to hide his insecurities about failing as a provider and protector.
SO WHAT? This matters because it shows how toxic masculinity hurts women and reflects social pressures of that time.
2)TOPIC: In the different stanzas of Bury Me in a Free Land, Harper shows the horrors of slavery: Black people sold like animals, hunted if they escape, beaten, and babies taken from their mothers.
OPINION: Today, African-Americans still face similar injustices: labor exploitation, racial profiling, murder, and families torn apart by mass incarceration.
SO WHAT? This matters because it shows that even though slavery ended, the fight for real freedom continues.
1)TOPIC: In the poem Bury Me in a Free Land, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper talks about slavery and the contradiction of Americans valuing freedom while keeping people enslaved.
OPINION: Harper makes readers face the hypocrisy of Americans and realize how wrong it is to allow slavery.
SO WHAT? This matters because it makes us question our morals and reminds us that injustice must end.
8)TOPIC: In Jarhead, Anthony Swofford talks about how soldiers lose their First Amendment rights.
OPINION: This silencing makes soldiers follow orders without question, protecting the rich and powerful and allowing war for profit to continue.
SO WHAT? This is important because it shows how soldiers’ rights are ignored and how the system uses control to keep wars going for money.
7)TOPIC: Anthony Swofford’s depiction of military culture in Jarhead.
OPINION: The military’s systemic toxic masculinity—emphasizing transactional relationships, emotional repression, and violence—leads to sexual harassment, rape, and high suicide rates among service members.
SO WHAT? This is important because it reveals how deeply ingrained cultural norms within the military harm individuals and highlights the need for systemic change to protect service members’ well-being.
6)TOPIC: According to Malala Yousafzai, education is capable of combating terrorism in Pakistan (as stated in I Am Malala).
OPINION: This view is too simplistic as educational solutions will not provide an answer to the complicated geopolitical issues of Pakistan and they could potentially strengthen extremist behaviour instead of weakening it.
SO WHAT? For this reason, readers should evaluate the proposed solutions to the terrorism dilemma taking into account broader political and historical factors, and not simply rely on education as a solution.
5)TOPIC: The assertion made by Malala Yousafzai in the book I Am Malala, written about how combating terrorism in Pakistan is possible through education.
OPINION: Because educated persons have the ability to advocate for themselves and to resist all forms of propaganda, the way of Malala will greatly lessen the influence of the Taliban.
SO WHAT? This is important in that it displays the vital nature of education to provide citizens the ability to make positive change both socially and politically.
4)TOPIC: T.V. Reed’s discussion of music as a tool for addressing racial oppression in The Art of Protest.
OPINION: Hip-Hop today continues the work of Civil Rights-era music by highlighting ongoing inequalities and police brutality against Black men.
SO WHAT? This is important because it shows how music remains a powerful medium for social awareness and activism, keeping conversations about racial injustice alive.
T.V Reed in his book The Art of Protest, argues that environmentalism has been coded as a “white issue.” If those raising the awareness are perceived as largely white and well-off preaching to and within the same demographic, the probability of those most impacted, namely the poor communities of color who disproportionately suffer environmental hazards and toxic dumps, having a voice is dismal, so meaningful change will not occur. TOPIC: _________________________________________________________________________ OPINION: _______________________________________________________________________ SO WHAT? ___
3)TOPIC: T.V. Reed’s argument that environmentalism is perceived as a “white issue” in The Art of Protest.
OPINION: Because environmental activism is seen as dominated by white, affluent groups, marginalized communities most affected by environmental harm are left without a voice, preventing meaningful change.
SO WHAT? This matters because recognizing this imbalance is necessary to make environmental movements more inclusive and effective.
2)TOPIC: Elizabeth Kolbert’s argument that people must reduce carbon emissions to prevent catastrophic climate change in Field Notes from a Catastrophe.
OPINION: Catastrophic climate change is already inevitable, so efforts should shift from prevention to adapting and making future climates survivable.
SO WHAT? This is important because it challenges Kolbert’s focus on prevention and encourages readers to reconsider where time, research, and resources should be directed.
1)TOPIC: Using Alternative Energy Sources to Combat Climate Change according to Elizabeth Kolbert in Fieldnotes from a Catastrophe
OPINION: Kolbert does not acknowledge the major drawbacks of biofuels, solar energy, and wind energy, making widespread implementation of these technologies unwise until all pending issues about Cost, Waste, and Space have been resolved.
SO WHAT? This is significant because readers need to thoughtfully evaluate Kolbert’s argument regarding the use of alternative energy sources, along with understanding alternative energy's limitations before endorsing and supporting widespread implementation of alternative energy technologies.

La fuente es demasiado grande en tamaño 16. La fuente es poco convencional. En la información del ensayo en la parte superior izquierda, se omite el título de la clase. La numeración de páginas en la parte superior derecha tiene el apellido del profesor, no el del estudiante. El título “Revisión del ensayo n.º 1” es genérico, no creativo y no despierta el interés del lector. Cuando se presenta la novela, también es necesario mencionar el autor. El título de la novela está entre comillas cuando debería estar en cursiva. El personaje principal se conoce con diferentes apodos informales que no se usan en el texto, y uno está mal escrito. Siempre sea preciso y coherente con los nombres de los personajes y del autor, y asegúrese de que estén bien escritos. Hay un espacio extra después del primer párrafo y el segundo párrafo necesita sangría. Los márgenes del lado izquierdo no miden una pulgada.
In the first page of the essay, there are several MLA formatting errors. The header “Lachmayr 1” is incorrectly placed on the left instead of being right-aligned and ½ inch from the top margin, and it uses the professor’s last name instead of the student’s, which should read “Bell 1.” The date is written in the wrong format, as MLA requires “21 May 2013.” The title is not properly centered, is incorrectly capitalized, and uses improper styling, since MLA titles should be in plain text without bold, italics, or underlining. The abbreviation “n.°” in the title is not MLA style and should be written as “No. 1” or avoided. Additionally, the book title within the paragraph is incorrectly placed in quotation marks instead of italics, and there is an unnecessary space before the closing quotation mark and comma.
you might want to try to study for an exam in a situation that is similar to the one in which you are going to take the exam.
To some, that glycolysis is such a complex, multi-step pathway may seem counter-intuitive: “Why wouldn’t evolution lead to a *simpler* way to extract energy from food since energy is an important requirement for life?” Explain the necessity/advantage of having glucose get broken down in many steps.
When you split up glycolysis into its steps, the reactions are much less exothermic overall when compared to the breakdown of a glucose molecule in one step. Not only is this inherently less efficient, it will also increase the temperature of the organism significantly, which can cause loss in other functions like protein denaturing.
Having multiple steps also makes it easier for the cell to manipulate and regulate the direction of the reactions and their rates, much more easily than it would be to do so for a single-step glycolysis.
Note for reference that glycolysis is an anaerobic process. There is no requirement for molecular oxygen in glycolysis - oxygen gas is not a reactant in any of the chemical reactions in glycolysis. Glycolysis occurs in the cytosol or cytoplasm of cells.
This indicates that glycolysis first evolved in times or areas with no oxygen and, therefore, also before the development of the endosymbiotic relationship with the mitochondria.
In biology the term "high-energy bond" is used to describe an exergonic reaction involving the hydrolysis of the bond in question that results in a "large," negative change in free energy.
This helps clear up some previous confusions I've had regarding the energy of the chemical bonds of molecules.
In AP Chemistry, I was taught that in order to break bonds, you use energy to break that bond. Like smashing something with a hammer, you use energy to swing the hammer and strike the substrate.
However, in pervious Biology courses, I was told to simply understand that the bonds of molecules like ATP and Glucose store a lot of energy and release it when the bond is broken or changed.
I'm glad that I was able to clear this up with a stronger understanding of Gibb's Free Energy.
A variety of mechanisms have emerged over the 3.25 billion years of evolution to create ATP from ADP and AMP
I think this is implying that ADP came first and then ATP evolved from ADP but this leads me to think about how ADP came into existence. I dont think its a case similar to the phospholipid bilayer where it just happens if theres enough of the needed molecules floating around and without ATP which is what releases energy after turning into ADP, I don't understand its function or importance in organisms before
Can you state what you know so far about the relationship between NADH/NAD+ and ATP?
I remember from my high school biology that NADH is an electron carrier that carries the electrons to the transport chain at the very end. On the other hand, ATP turning into ADP should be releasing energy that is used to go against a gradient. I don't remember exactly but I think there is a pump in the membrane related to ATP that uses it to pump H+
The hydrolysis reactions that liberate one or more of ATP's phosphates are exergonic
This is what I have been so confused about. In chemistry I've learned that it takes energy to break bonds so the reactions that involve the breaking of bonds are endothermic but then that challenged my idea that liberating a phosphate is an exergonic process. I don't understand how these ideas co-exist. Is it that the ATP into ADP is happening at a bigger scale than the chemistry I am talking about so it is not as relevant?
Can you state what you know so far about the relationship between NADH/NAD+ and ATP?
NAD+ becomes reduced, accepting electrons to become NADH. It then transports these electrons to the electron transport chain that changes ADP to ATP.
There are three large, negative ΔG drops in the cell in the process of glycolysis. We consider these reactions irreversible and are often subject to regulation
Even though there are some steps in glycolysis that require energy (have a positive delta G), the overall pathway is exergonic because of the several very exergonic steps.
The phosphorylation (or condensation of phosphate groups onto AMP) is an endergonic process. By contrast, the hydrolysis of one or two phosphate groups from ATP, a process called dephosphorylation, is exergonic.
So phosphorylation removes H2O while adding a phosphate group and dephosphorylation requires H2O to remove a phosphate group.

“I don’t weigh a bit more,” said I, “nor as much; and my appetite may be better in the evening when you are here, but it is worse in the morning when you are away!” “Bless her little heart!” said he with a big hug, “she shall be as sick as she pleases! But now let’s improve the shining hours by going to sleep, and talk about it in the morning!” “And you won’t go away?” I asked gloomily. “Why, how can I, dear? It is only three weeks more and then we will take a nice little trip of a few days while Jennie is getting the house ready. Really dear you are better!” “Better in body perhaps—” I began, and stopped short, for he sat up straight and looked at me with such a stern, reproachful look that I could not say another word.

Two pipes of equal and constant diameter leave a water pumping station and dump water out of an open end that is open to the atmosphere (see the following figure). The water enters at a pressure of two atmospheres and a speed of (v1 = 1.0 m/s). One pipe drops a height of 10 m. What is the velocity of the water as the water leaves each pipe?
Given: Inlet pressure P1=2 atm=2.026×105 Pa Inlet velocity v1=1.0 m/s Outlet pressure P2=P3=1 atm=1.013×105 Pa Density of water ρ=1000 kg/m3 Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8 m/s2 1. For the horizontal pipe: The problem states the pipes have a constant diameter. According to the equation of continuity: A1v1=A2v2 Since the diameter is constant, the cross-sectional area A1=A2. Therefore: v2=v1=1.0 m/s 2. For the pipe with a 10 m drop: Applying Bernoulli's equation between the inlet (point 1) and the outlet (point 3): P1+21ρv12+ρgh1=P3+21ρv32+ρgh3 Taking the outlet level as the reference (h3=0), then h1=10 m. 2.026×105+21(1000)(1.0)2+(1000)(9.8)(10)=1.013×105+21(1000)v32+0 202600+500+98000=101300+500v32 301100=101300+500v32 199800=500v32 v32=500199800 v32=399.6 v3=399.6≈19.99 m/s Final velocities: Horizontal pipe: 1.0 m/s Dropping pipe: 20.0 m/s
o, organisms that do not have a full cycle can still make the 4 key metabolic precursors by using previously extracted energy and electrons (ATP and NADH) to drive some key steps in reverse.
I imagine this is not favorable? If the energy is needed for growth and development the fact they have to recycle a portion of it to create more ATP means that their growth is limited to some degree. Is it mainly unicellular and tiny microorganisms that do not have a full 4 key metabolic precursors.
This step is considered irreversible because it is so highly exergonic.
Meaning that the reverse reaction would be too endergonic that there is either insufficient energy to provide for the reverse reaction or mechanisms deem it a waste of energy and would work out different solutions?
he resulting acetyl-CoA can enter several pathways for the biosynthesis of larger molecules or it can flow into another pathway of central metabolism called the Citric Acid Cycle, sometimes also called the Krebs Cycle, or Tricarboxylic Acid (TCA) Cycle.
I learned this in a lot of detail in IB Bio and when I was going through dissecting steps, I remember at some points there were random H+ coming into the mix and I did not understand where they were coming from because I thought of this process as being isolated. Right now, I am thinking that these H+ probably exist within the environment that the reaction is taking place within and are simply grabbed up?
As the ATP is consumed, the muscle cells are unable to keep up with the demand for respiration, O2 becomes limiting, and NADH accumulates. Cells need to get rid of the excess and regenerate NAD+, so pyruvate serves as an electron acceptor, generating lactate and oxidizing NADH to NAD+. Many bacteria use this pathway as a way to complete the NADH/NAD+ cycle.
Slightly unrelated to the topic at hand but did this evolve in species after they started becoming more physically active? I wouldn't think that bacteria would have any use for this pathway within this specific context (generating lactic acid to meet demand for energy due to exercise). Also how important is the production of lactic acid; does the acid itself have benefits or is it simply a byproduct/tradeoff?
During my adolescence, I was able to observe the genetics of my father's family, and as I grew older, I had to go to the dermatologist because I had acne on my skin, and I also had to go to the gynecologist, which terrified me. But that's what a teenager has to go through because those are the stages, and that's how it is habitual ** And I feel that my father's paternal nature protected me throughout that time. And it's incredible how you see it in retrospect, from your father's perspective, because despite everything, he takes care of you, and even when the situation is very pathetic, he's always there for you. That's why my father's love is perennial and omnipotent **because he dont leave me alone
1)How did he learn to read if it was forbidden? So brave! I feel bad for his suffering, it’s so unfair. Wow! His mistress changed because of slavery, that’s sad but interesting. I like how he used kids to learn, so smart. “Columbian Orator”? I need to look this up, sounds important. It’s so intense that learning to read made him suffer more… cruel that freedom was only a dream.
2) Chattel -someone’s property (like an object) Stratagems -strategies, tricks Emancipation - freedom from slavery Vindication - defense or justification Writhed -twisted, squirmed Unabated - without decreasing
3) Frederick Douglass was born a slave in Maryland around 1817. - Origin He went to Baltimore and learned to read with his master’s wife’s help. - Learning He escaped in 1838, got married, and changed his name. -Freedom
Became a speaker, wrote his autobiography, fought for Black rights. - Activism In Master Hugh’s house, he had to use strategies to keep learning, because his mistress stopped teaching him. -Obstacles His mistress was kind at first, but slavery made her harsh and cruel. - Change of people Douglass befriended white kids to teach him how to read more. -Cleverness The book Columbian Orator taught him about freedom and arguing against slavery. - Education Learning to read caused pain because he saw his situation but couldn’t change it. -Pain
4) “Slavery proved as injurious to her as it did to me.” “Education and slavery were incompatible with each other.” “The more I read, the more I was led to abhor and detest my enslavers.” “The silver trump of freedom had roused my soul to eternal wakefulness.” Freedom was always on his mind, motivating and torturing him at the same time. - Desire for freedom
5) My thesis: Learning to read was a double-edged sword for Frederick Douglass: it freed him intellectually and gave him power to fight for freedom, but it also caused him pain by revealing the cruelty of slavery and his own oppression.

you can see, growing tomatoes can be very easy and manageable for even novice gardeners. The satisfaction of picking and eating fresh food, and doing it yourself, outweighs all the effort you put in over the growing season.
This essay matters to us the readrers because it shows how easy it is to eat foods that had been freshley grown instead of using harvested tomatoes from the store.
Choosing to grow the patio variety of tomatoes is easiest because patio tomatoes do not require staking or training around cages. They grow in smaller spaces and have a determinate harvest time.
Transition words: Patio tomatoes are easier than other types of tomatoes.
Once you have the gravel in the bottom of the container and the soil on top, you are ready to transplant the tomato. Pick up the tomato in the plastic container it comes in from the nursery. Turn it upside down, and holding the stem between your fingers, pat the bottom lightly several times, and the plant should fall into your hand. Next, you should gently break up the root ball that formed in the nursery container with your hands. Be gentle, but be sure to rip them up a bit; this helps generate new root growth in the new container. Be careful not to damage the roots too much, as this could stunt the growth or even destroy the plant altogether.
Description: A tomato plant is finally grown because all the correct directions were followed.
I recommend that you plant your tomatoes in containers. If you have the space and sunlight, then you can certainly plant them in the ground, but a container has several advantages and is usually most manageable for the majority of gardeners. The containers can be used in the house, on a patio, or anywhere in the backyard, and they are portable. Containers also tend to better regulate moisture and drain excess water. Choose a container that is at least 10 inches in diameter and at least 1 foot deep. This will provide sufficient room for root development.
Explanions: You must follow the exact steps while growing tomoatoes otherwise it may not grow.
Growing tomatoes is a simple and rewarding task, and more people should be growing them.
Thesis: Letting the readers know growing tomatoes is easy and encourges to grow fresh tomatoes rather than buying.
If the initial concentration of butadiene is 0.0200 M, what is the concentration remaining after 20.0 min? Answer
Where's the rest of this question? It's giving the initial concentration and the time, where's the third one I need to solve the problem? I need either the [A] or the rate to do the question.
The following table lists kinetics data for this reaction at 25°C. Determine the rate law and calculate the rate constant. kinetics data for this reaction at 25°C. Experiment [S2O82−]0 (M) [I−]0 (M) Initial Rate (M/s) 1 0.27 0.38 2.05 2 0.40 0.38 3.06 3 0.40 0.22 1.76 Answer: rate = k[S2O82−][I−]; k = 20 M−1·s−1
Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see anywhere in this chapter in an example or in word where it tells you what to do when the math for determining the rate doesn't give you a clean integer.
Based on the answer it seems like you can round but I don't get how that makes sense . . . ?
