What are some controls on breathing? Think critically if one of those is affected and how that would influence breathing. For example, how is breathing influenced if aortic carbon dioxide concentration goes up?
Understand the definitions of each of the ”volumes of air” in a breath. Which one is associated with deep breathing? How are these volumes altered if lung tissue is damaged or destroyed? What affect does that have on breathing? How are volumes affected with an asthma attack?
What is the affect of smoking on the lungs? Be able to identify ”big picture” changes and “small picture” changes.

The distinction between artificial selection and natural selection is important to master. Consider a bacteria that does not cause human disease. Describe these processes using illustrative examples. Your examples may be fictitious, but they need to be realistic and make biological sense
1. Describe a specific example in which the bacteria changes (evolves) in a manner that Illustrates artificial selection. Your description should contain an explanation
2. Describe a specific example in which the bacteria changes (evolves) in a manner that illustrates natural selection Your description should contain an explanation.

B) If a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, the AH for the reaction will equal the product of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps.
C) The AH for a process in the forward direction is equal in magnitude and opposite in sign to the AH for the process in the reverse direction.
D) The AH for a process in the forward direction is equal to the AH for the process in the reverse direction.

Please provide references:
Analyze the measures your state (Georgia) and local community have in place to prepare hospitals for two (2) different types of threats to public health. Does the design of these measures of threats allow for the sufficient protection of the population in the face of an imminent threat. Justify your response.
Examine two to three (2-3) changes to the preparedness policies of your chosen state (Georgia) and federal government agencies. Determine the significant social, political, or environmental factors that have influenced these changes. Provide support for your rationale.

One of the shortcomings of monetary policy is the problem with timelags. This is a problem because:
Non banks can make loans as well as member banks over time
It takes time for the US senate to approve the FED changes
It takes time for the FED to get approval of it’s actions from the US President
After the FED takes an action it may take years for the discount rate and Fed funds rate to change
After the FED takes an action it could be months or even years before the changes impacted our macroeconomic economy
