PART I. Read the essay below, and answer the questions that follow.
The advantages of e-mail communication
The first thing most of us do when we get up in the morning is to turn on the computer and check for e-mail messages. This has become a part of our daily routine. We take it for granted that this has been an age-old practice and don’t pause to think that it is a product of recent technological revolution. It is a wonder how we ever survived without it. The advantages of e-mail communication are many, and the chief among them are its speed, low cost, and convenience.
Speed is the obvious advantage. Just as our planes, trains, and automobiles are moving ever faster, so are our modes of communication. We can send e- mail around the world in a matter of minutes with no more effort than it takes to press a few keys on the computer. It is this speed that has led to our calling regular mail “snail mail.”
E-Mail has also the advantage of being inexpensive. Many people have access to e-mail for free through their work or school. If some people may pay for e-mail through an online service, there is no increase in cost relative to the number of messages sent. It is the same price to send one message to one person as it is to send messages back and forth all day or to a hundred people. Finally, if we consider the costs saved in long-distance phone bills in addition to cost saved in postage, most e-mail users come out ahead.
There is no question that e-mail is convenient. It allows us to send the same message to many people at the same time with little more effort than it takes to send a message to one person. When sending multiple copies of a message, we avoid the trouble of photocopying the letter, printing out additional copies, addressing envelopes, and posting the mail. E-mail is also convenient because it lends itself to an informal style that makes composing a message relatively easy; in addition, readers of e-mail tolerate more mistakes than readers of conventional mail, and their tolerance saves us time.
E-Mail thus gives us the ability to send messages with convenience, speed and little expense. In not too distant a future, “snail mail” is likely to become obsolete, and one can already hear the bell toll for the US Postal Services.

PART 2
As a society, we are hearing more and more about how people are not ethical and that is affecting their personal life or their business life. Write a 1-2 page paper defining ethics and what it means to you. How do you take ethics into consideration on a daily basis?

Discuss whether you believe the company’s marketing strategy is effective with that target market.

Assignment Details

A marketing manager must evaluate competition and access internal metrics to keep the company on track. Think about a company that you purchase products from regularly. Reflect upon the target market and the marketing strategy that this company is using.

For this assignment, do the following:
Discuss whether you believe the company’s marketing strategy is effective with that target market.
As marketing manager, what would you suggest be added or taken away from this strategy?

Explain why we use both Giemsa and DAPI when studying human genetics, and not just one or the other.

Question 1 (10 points)
You have a PCR template sample containing 100 molecules of dsDNA. If you ran 5 PCR cycles, what is the highest number of molecules you could have?
Question 1 options:
3,200
1,000
500
105
132
Question 2 (10 points)
When it’s all said and done, and you have completed your amplification, which substances below can still be found in your PCR tube? Select all that apply.
Question 2 options:
PCR amplification products
polymerase
primers
remaining dNTPs
original template
Question 3 (10 points)
Explain why we use both Giemsa and DAPI when studying human genetics, and not just one or the other. How are they similar, and how are they different?
Question 4 (10 points)
(1) What is the karyotype for men who have an extra Y chromosome? Discuss all the ways you can test for this abnormality.
(2) What is the karyotype for women who have an extra X-chromosome? Discuss all the ways you can test for this abnormality.
Question 5 (10 points)
Why is Sanger sequencing sometimes referred to as “dye-terminator” sequencing?
Question 6 (10 points)
Which of the following are considered to be “next-generation” sequencing technologies? Select all that apply.
Question 6 options:
sequencing by synthesis
sequencing by ligation (Applied Biosystems machines)
automated pyrosequencing
ion torrent sequencing (Life Technologies machines)
ABI 3730
Question 7 (10 points)
One type of cancer is caused by a mutation that occurs in a gene whose length is 2kb. A 200bp deletion is responsible for this mutation, and it is dominant, meaning you only need to have one copy of it to have cancer. A Southern Blot could diagnose this disease, but describe how you could diagnose this disease using PCR instead.
Question 8 (10 points)
You have managed to create a personal PCR fragment containing a human olfactory receptor gene in an attempt to answer that question that’s been haunting you for years–whether or not your dog has any olfactory (sense of smell) genes that may be related to yours. Explain how you can use your fragment, along with the genomic DNA from your dog, to answer your question.
Question 9 (10 points)
You have been given a 1.0 kbp human genome fragment that does not contain any repeated sequences. Your plan is to use it as a probe for a Southern Blot containing your friend’s genomic DNA. You prepare your gel by digesting with the following restriction enzymes in the following lanes:
Lane 1: size marker
Lane 2: EcoRI
Lane 3: HindIII
Lane 4: BamHI
Your friend happens to be homozygous for the region you are probing. Does that mean you will only see one band in each lane? Explain.
Question 10 (10 points)
Concerning the previous question, what if you decide to conduct the same procedure on a different friend who happens to be heterozygous for the region being probed? Would you expect to see only one band per lane?

NOTE: All answers must be detailed and fully address the questions asked, and must incorporate and reference, at minimum, the course materials. Brief and/or insufficient answers that do not reflect rigorous academic effort and college-level critical thought on the part of the student will receive little to no credit.
*If the question above presents questions in list (i.e. numbered) form, you MUST clearly label your answer in the given list form (i.e. use the same numbers provided) and address each question separately in order to receive credit.

Write a short paper discussing the cognitive and physical factors related to distracted driving.

Write a short paper discussing the cognitive and physical factors related to distracted driving. You have probably seen news stories about the dangers of talking on a cell phone or texting and driving. Logic tells you it is a disaster waiting to happen, but you may not have known the science behind the risk. Prompt: After reading Chapter 4 in your textbook, you should have a clear picture of how cognitive and physical limitations combine to form a dangerous situation. Write a short paper addressing the following: How do both cognitive and physical factors contribute to accidents when drivers talk on their cell phones and/or text behind the wheel? Using the Shapiro Library Database Index: A-Z Databases or a credible website such as the Association for Psychological Science (APS), find a research study that investigates the risk of distracted driving and incorporate it into your paper. For example, the following study from the APS site discusses the fact that most drivers believe their skills are above average. This study, When It Comes to Driving, Most People Think Their Skills Are Above Average, could be used to propose that drivers’ overconfidence might lead them to take more risks or lead to greater inattentiveness. You cannot use this study for your own paper, but the example should spark some ideas for choosing and incorporating studies into your own research. Citations: Use material from Chapter 4 in your textbook to back up your explanations of the cognitive and physical factors you have investigated, and properly cite that information in APA format. Also be sure to list your research-study references, including the textbook, in APA format. Refer the Purdue OWL Reference Page Formatting to facilitate this. Guidelines for Submission: Your short paper must be 1–2 pages in length. It should be in 12-point Times New Roman font, with one-inch margins and all
