Case : Maestro Pizza
Entering the food industry nowadays became harder than before. The people now pay extra attention to even small details when it comes to food. The variety of food kinds, the way the food being served, the quality of food, the price and even the place decoration! Furthermore, there are tons of restaurants (competitors) those being in the food industry for decades which makes it even harder to compete them. Not to mention if a new restaurant will serve one kind of food that already being served by other expert restaurants.

1.- Define homeostasis. Who was the first person to describe the phenomenon? Who was the first person to coin the term Homeostasis. Explain the processes involved in returning your body temperature to its 37°C set point during a run when your body temperature gets above 37°C.

2.-As you are sitting at your desk reviewing ANS 100 lectures during Spring 2020, you look out your window and notice a new species of animal. You remember reading about this new species Covidicus whoknowswhatitis on social media and that people don’t know much about it yet. So like a good Animal Science student you go outside to take a closer look. You see that there are lots of individuals of this species and they range in size from about 1g to 1000g. They are transparent and so you can see their internal organs (and you have superpowers so you know the weight of everything you look at!). You notice that one individual is 10g and has a 1g liver, you then notice another individual that is 30g and has a 3 g liver. In this species, does liver size scale allometrically or isometrically? Both animals turn around and now you see their kidneys. In the 10g species the kidney is 0.5g (yes, they have big kidneys) and in the 30g species the kidney is 1g. In this species, does the kidney scale allometrically or isometrically? Explain the difference between allometric and isometric scaling. Why do many physiological processes or anatomical structures scale allometrically?

RE: Sect. 1 Week 14 DQ 12: Justice and access to health care

Does society have a responsibility to provide access to health care to those who lack it?

I feel my position lies somewhere between Utilitarian and Communitarian. The purpose of medicine is to bring the greatest good for the greatest number of people. And if we highlight the community and not any one individual, it sounds more fair, "the city of Anchorage has a right to accessible health care." Morally, no one should agree with statements like "the city of Anchorage, minus the Jews, has a right to accessible health care," so I feel singling out a particular group (homeless, unemployed, drunkards, etc.) is used to highlight dissatisfaction with a particular group and distract from the fact that our current system fails even those who can afford to pay.

Taking a communitarian/utilitarian view seems to be the most beneficial. If everyone has access to preventative health care, then the overall cost on society will be lessened, see the article on super-users. Our system is set up in a way that the most expensive care is the only one available. A $200 office visit and $10 prescription for blood thinners is way more cost effective than a $10,000 ER and hospital stay for a stroke. Proactive treatment should be preferred to reactive treatment. Justice in this case can be done for both the individual needing the treatment, and to taxpayers, in the form of optimizing the money they put into the system.

Suppose marginal utility from leisure is given by 3c0.5/(2ℓ0.5) and marginal utility from consumption is given by 3ℓ0.5/(2c0.5) and that an individual can work up to 24 hours per day at a wage of $20 per hour.

A. Write the mathematical condition which must be satisfied in order for a worker to participate in the labour force. Write the two mathematical conditions which a participant's optimal choice must satisfy (write them in terms of c and ℓ rather than Y and ℓ).

B. Write a formula for the worker's reservation wage as a function of non-labour income YN. If YN=$240 then WR=........ and the individual (will/will not) work. If YN=$720 then WR= ....... and the individual......... (will/will not) work.

C. Suppose YN=$2400. Write the formula for this individual's potential income constraint. This individual will choose to work ....... hours. So they will have ....... hours of leisure and spend $........ on consumption.

D. Suppose YN=$100. Write the formula for this individual's potential income constraint. This individual will choose to work .........hours. So they will have .........hours of leisure and spend $ ........ on consumption.
