For this assignment you will write a compare and contrast paper where you discuss two artworks. One artwork will be from a style/era we have discussed and one that is from a style/era that we have not discussed that is considered “the other”/non-western. Your paper should include an iconographic analysis that covers: history, interpretation, cultural-ideological meanings, and symbolisms of the artwork presented, and discuss any similarities or differences in regards to purpose, media, style, theme, subject.

You may use the links below or browse any other museum website to find your artworks:
The Met (Links to an external site.)
British Museum (Links to an external site.)
The Google Collection (Links to an external site.)
The Compare/Contrast Paper should include:
The essay should answer the question, “How are the objects similar?” and “How are the objects different?” The key to a good compare and contrast essay is to organize the paragraphs by theme where both works of art are discussed all the way through. What are the themes? Choose any of the formal qualities – such as style, material, size, use of line, texture, shape, etc. You also need to include a discussion of the objects’ functions and meanings. So what was the object used for? Who used it? Where was it originally located? Who was supposed to see or not see the works?
**Remember, the most important thing is to discuss the works together. So for example, if you make a point that the materials are the same – both are made out of stone – you need to explain why that is important and talk about both works together. Or if the subject matter is different – why is it different? what is being portrayed in each work?
A thesis statement (identifiable argument/main point) in the introduction paragraph. This statement should identify the significance of the comparison and how it contributes to a greater understanding and appreciation of both artistic styles.
An Evaluation of the similarities and differences regarding form and style: Consider the significance of the differences in form and style and how it impacts the overall message.
An Examination of context in order to examine how style and meaning relate to historical and social context.
REQUIREMENTS:
Citation style: The paper must be written in correct Chicago Manual of Style (CMS) formatting.
Times New Roman, size 12 font, double spaced
Essay style: paper must be organized and written in complete Standard English sentences and include an introduction with a thesis statement, supporting arguments/evidence in your body paragraph, and a conclusion.
Length: 3-5 pages of text. Pages with including images, bibliography, or title page do not count. (No title page is needed).
The paper must include images of the works of art with appropriate CMS image label, credit line, and in-text figure reference. Images of the selected artworks with CMS labels should be on a separate page from your text.
Bibliography page listing your sources.
Your paper should be submitted as Word Doc or a PDF online in Canvas.
**Writing Tips**
Do not write in the first person. No “I this…” or “I that…”. And stay a way from personalized feelings. There is no need to state why you chose the artwork.
Your thesis should be specific to the overall point of your paper. I.E. Your thesis should not be a general statement like: “There are similarities and differences….”
Think about the articles we have read in class. Keep your writing to an academic tone and pretend anyone could read your paper to gain knowledge.
Do not say “In conclusion….” to start your conclusion paragraph. Your reader will understand that you are writing your conclusion paragraph.

Describe the distal stimulus being perceived by people in this field, job, or activity.
Think of a field, job, or activity that depends heavily on perceiving your environment. It could be a situation in which perception can be used to lead to surprising effects or where errors can lead to terrible mistakes.
Note: everything we interact with requires perceiving it, but I’m asking about a situation in which perception is a very important and a main part of the job or activity.
Describe the distal stimulus being perceived by people in this field, job, or activity.
Why is perception important to this particular field, job, or activity you are describing? Things you could consider (you don’t have to answer each question, these are here to help you think):
Do errors in perception lead to big mistakes?
Are errors in perception encouraged or necessary for the experience?
How is Top-Down & Bottom-Up processing being used?
Is this situation prone to any of the perceptual mistakes described in the chapter (e.g., change blindness and inattentional blindness)?
What things potentially affect what is or is not perceived? Does this pose a risk or is it beneficial?
The BBC Sherlock series and Sherlock Holmes from the original books are both very similar in personalities. However, they are distinct when it comes to their time period and companions.
When approaching a film adaptation of a novel, it is important to consider the various differences between the two mediums. Sherlock Holmes from the BBC TV series and Sherlock Holmes from the fiction of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle fiction are great examples where they share unique personalities but differ in their historical contexts and their companionship.
Then write about their similaties and difference lksting examplesin a 5 pargraph essay
Women, Gender, and Patriarchy
Discuss and analyze the subjugation of women throughout the Americas during the colonial period and consider how patriarchy manifests in the following areas of subjects: religion, race, class, gender roles, and/or politics.
Answer each of the following:
1) Compare and Contrast patriarchy in the English and Spanish Colonies (500 words minimum) and the impact on women in the area of social/cultural position and legal rights.
2) Assess and critically analyze African and Native women’s survival within and resistance to patriarchy in the Spanish colonies – your discussion may include conversations revolving around “3rd and 4th” gender spaces in the context of Native Cultures. (500 words minimum)
Each response requires a minimum of 4 class sources (readings, film, and lecture) per response.
There is a Folder named Essay 3 which contains the ONLY resources where the information and citations for the essay are required.
What is biotransformation?
1) What is biotransformation?
2) What is the general outcome in terms of chemical properties?
3) What class or group of proteins are involved?
PART 2
4) List and briefly describe five different metabolic
mechanisms for biotransforming xenobiotics from both phase I and phase II (also
give which phase they are a part of).
PART 3
Some epoxides are highly reactive compounds. (If you use
sources other than the textbook, provide a link or a citation.)
5) Describe the biotransformation process for converting a
xenobiotic into an epoxide metabolite.
6) Give an example and name the enzyme involved.
PART 4
7) One well-known pathways of biotransformation is the
transformation of ethanol (CH3CH2OH) into acetaldehyde (CH3CHO).
Then acetaldehyde is then transformed to acetate (CH3COO-).
Link for more information on this reaction here:
https://pubs.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/aa72/aa72.htm (Note: searching for
acetic acid instead of acetate may be beneficial): [I recommend exploring chemicals with
https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/]
a)
What are the
two enzymes that are mainly responsible for these two steps?
b)
Is this a
Phase I or Phase II reaction? What type? Why?
c)
Describe the
change in the polarity of ethanol to acetate. What does that mean for what is
likely to happen to these molecules in the body?
d)
Think about
the molecular properties of these molecules. How are their boiling points and
polarity connected? Compare the boiling points to non-polar propane (-44 °F),
which has a similar molecular weight.
e)
Look up
information on vapor pressure from a reputable source. How is boiling point
connected to vapor pressure?
