Your assignment is to find an article in the popular media (published in the year 2016) that contains either an example of blatant ignorance of evolutionary theory or merely a single statement that reveals a misconception of evolutionary thinking or about how evolution works. Make a copy of this article (at least the first page showing the date and name of the publication and the relevant sections if it is long) and underline, highlight, or otherwise point out the problem piece of text you will discuss and turn this in with your paper. In your paper, explain why what you found is wrong then explain the correct way that this could have been stated and/or explain the correct evolutionary thinking and theory behind the concept in question.
INSTRUCTIONS (follow them!)
Your paper must be in your own words, typed, using a font size of 12 and font style of Helvetica (Times New Roman is acceptable if your computer does not have Helvetica), and 1-inch margins for top, bottom, and sides. Use 1
Structural Chromosomal Rearrangements Require Nucleotide-Level Resolution
Things to note: - to ONLY write sections for results, discussion and include appendix - data and figures must be included in the report and placed under appendix - label all the data and pictures with a DETAILED legend each -ONLY the graph can be place in the result section - refer to the files uploaded for the data and detailed instruction on how to write the report - please present the results of the Standard Curve and the PSA concentrations of your patient samples in a table format
Structural Chromosomal Rearrangements Require Nucleotide-Level Resolution
Some fungi can be viewed as coenocytic organisms that exhibit little differentiation. When differentiation does occur, such as in the formation of reproductive structures, it is preceded by septum formation. Why does this occur?
Preferably 1.5 page evaluation of the reading: Mongolism A Chemical Phenomenon by Max Schlapp (1925).
Included is the reading and evaluation questions
Question 1: Describe the development of the human embryo from the formation of the zygote to the point where the three embryonic germ layers develop. List the types of adult tissues that are derived from each of these germ layers. Be prepared to discuss how disruption early in development can cause major problems in the body of the developing individual.
Question 2: Review and evaluate current research into human fertility. In your opinion, which direction of research appears to be having the most success in improving fertility? Which direction do you feel that research should be directed in the next few years? Defend your choices and be ready to discuss the implications of control of human fertility on society and culture.
Science writers convey complex scientific ideas to the public. They must be knowledgeable in the sciences as well as proficient in techniques of journalism. Good science writing is thoroughly researched and communicates the key ideas of scientific research and topics in a comprehensible and straightforward manner. Science writers are also always on the lookout for new and interesting discoveries and studies in science. For this project, you are the science reporter for your local newspaper. You have just received an assignment from your editor. She asks you to write an article on a major topic within the field of microbiology. She stipulates that in this article you must:
Generate a historical timeline of the major scientific discoveries leading to our current understanding of the topic.
Include a summary of our current understanding of the topic.
Project where the next major advance or breakthrough in your topic will come from.
