For this assignment, you will complete a 15-30 minute session of any type of massage or acupressure. You will need to either 1) practice self-massage techniques from Exercise 19.1 of the book OR 2) get any type of professional massage or acupressure to complete your session. This practice is designed to help you with your physical practice at managing stress. This should be for a minimum of 15-30 minutes (you can practice this technique for longer and more than once if you would like). This time is not meant as added stress, but as practice to determine which techniques may work best for you.

When you have finished your session please complete the following:

A description of the activity (15-20 sentences about how you completed the activity): What did you do? (Be specific - You will need to include some names or descriptions of the process that you completed.) How did the activity make you feel physically? (Was it difficult, easy, etc.?)

After you complete your practice of this technique, please reflect on the experience with a minimum of 2-3 sentences for each response. Answer the following statements for each technique:

1. Describe any recurring thoughts you had during your practice of ______________:

2. Describe any difficulties you experienced during your practice of _____________:

3. Do you think this technique will help you manage and/or reduce your stress levels? Why or why not?

Please submit via on line text. Take your time, enjoy the experience. Give yourself the time to physically feel if any of these techniques work for you.

For your responses, please be specific to the stress reduction activity that you are practicing. Please be clear that you actually tried the activity. If your response is too general, you will likely not receive full credit for the assignment.

You work for a firm that is currently selling a generic allergy medication. Recently there was a new price control set in place which is currently slightly higher than the current market price. What events could occur which would cause the price ceiling to become binding? Give an example of a decision your company can make to get the equilibrium price back under the price ceiling.

What are the opportunity costs of developing wind farms to generate “clean” electricity? Should we make the investment?

Delta Company produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company’s normal activity level of 86,400 units per year is: Direct materials $ 1.90 Direct labor $ 3.00 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.00 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 5.25 Variable selling and administrative expenses $ 1.10 Fixed selling and administrative expenses $ 2.00 The normal selling price is $20.00 per unit. The company’s capacity is 118,800 units per year. An order has been received from a mail-order house for 2,700 units at a special price of $17.00 per unit. This order would not affect regular sales or the company’s total fixed costs. Required: 1. What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the special order? 2. As a separate matter from the special order, assume the company’s inventory includes 1,000 units of this product that were produced last year and that are inferior to the current model. The units must be sold through regular channels at reduced prices. The company does not expect the selling of these inferior units to have any effect on the sales of its current model. What unit cost is relevant for establishing a minimum selling price for these units?

which of the primate traits do you think that you could live without and why? How would you psychologically and behaviorally compensate for the loss of this trait?

Your response should be at least one page ( I will give best ratings)

AA DD individuals were crossed to aa dd individuals. The F1 generation was then testcrossed to aa dd individuals. The resulting individuals had the following genotypes: 903 individuals with the genotype Aa Dd, 897 individuals with the genotype aa dd, 98 individuals with the genotype Aa dd, 102 individuals with the genotype aa Dd.

1. Are the genes (A and D) on the same chromosome or different chromosomes? (Calculate the expected number of progeny if they were on different chromosomes and compare.)

A. Same chromosomes

B. Different chromosomes

C. Can't be determined

2. If A and D are on the same chromosome, how far apart are they in Map Units. (Answer in a number - without units, if they are not on the same chromosome, answer 0).

7. You have a hash function that takes the binary bits of a number, divides it up into blocks of 4 bits and then XORs the blocks together. So for example, if we have 4 blocks, block X0, X1, X2 and X3, the result of the 4-bit block hash would be X0 XOR X1 XOR X2 XOR X3. For example, the hash of "011011001010" would be "0110" XOR "1100" XOR "1010". Demonstrate that this is a poor hash function by showing me a hash collision using this function and two different input strings of at least 8 bits.

1) When 0.119 g of Zn(s) is combined with enough HCl to make 51.6 mL of solution in a coffee-cup calorimeter, all of the zinc reacts, raising the temperature of the solution from 22.4 ∘C to 23.9 ∘C. Find ΔHrxn for this reaction as written. (Use 1.0 g/mL for the density of the solution and 4.18 J/g⋅∘C as the specific heat capacity.)

2)Calculate ΔHrxn for the following reaction:

CaO(s)+CO2(g)→CaCO3(s)

Use the following reactions and given ΔH values:

Ca(s)+CO2(g)+12O2(g)→CaCO3(s), ΔH= -812.8 kJ
2Ca(s)+O2(g)→2CaO(s), ΔH= -1269.8 kJ

Discuss three different types of business leases and the merit of each one.

Please give explanation.

Consider the titration of 100.0 mL of 0.200 M CH₃NH₂ by 0.100 M HCl.
For each volume of HCl added, decide which of the components is a major species after the HCl has reacted completely.
K_b for CH₃NH₂ = 4.4 x 10^-4.

300.00 mL HCL added:

yes no  H⁺
yes no  H₂O
yes no  Cl^-
yes no  CH₃NH₂
yes no  CH₃NH₃⁺

Calculate the pH at the equivalence point for this titration?

At what volume of HCl added in this titration does the pH = 10.64? Express your answer in mL and include the units in your answer?

Using values from Appendix C of your textbook, calculate the value of Keq at 298 K for each of the following reactions:

(B) 3 NO(g) NO2(g) + N2O(g)

(C) 2 HI(g) H2(g) + I2(g)
