There are rare cases where a base substitution mutagen can revert a frameshift mutation if the frameshift mutation is early in a DNA coding sequence. Suggest a mechanism by which this could occur.

Mesopotamia, India, and China had three of the earliest economic networks. How did their respective trade systems develop? Discuss how iron was a significant factor in these early economies.

How do relationships (e.g., family, relationship, friendships) change as you move from developmental stages (think in terms of moving from adolescence into early and/or middle adulthood)?

The start-up ecosystem in Beirut is an early to middle stage ecosystems, that has passed its early growth phase but is still far from maturity. On average, each year, 12 more start-ups are created than in the previous year, resulting in a 24% growth rate in start-up creation since 2009. A new IT-based start-up will start operating in Beirut beginning July 2020. KM seems to be part of their main business objectives as they are incorporating it in their mission and vision statements. The co-founders believe that knowledge is the main resource a business can possess. Hence, they plan to invest largely in KM systems starting the second year. The value of investors in the startup ecosystem in Beirut extends beyond the money they provide. They also act as mentors supporting the needs of the entrepreneurs, trying to fill the gaps start-ups have whether in staff, research, and infrastructure. As the new startup is now in the process of building prototypes of drones that can predict the speed of hurricanes, their investors have suggested adopting a KM system that highlights discrepancies between the observed and predicted speed of hurricanes. More than that, they believe it might be useful to analyze the effectiveness of the developed drones by comparing it to sensory equipment used in hospitals. This has been suggested due to the shortage of experience in their domain. In fact, the founder suggested that building a sort of repository for cases they encounter could prove to be highly essential to build and sustain expertise. This repository can either be added to a system they might purchase in the future, or can be employed by the start-up as an informal approach for knowledge application.

(20 points)

4. Suggest two mechanisms and two technologies that can facilitate the KM systems they plan to adopt. Justify your answers. (30 points)

Joan, an employee of Great American Market, was warned about her excessive absenteeism several times, both verbally and in writing. The written warning included notice that "further violations will result in disciplinary actions," including suspension or discharge.

A short time after the written warning was issued, Joan called work to say she was not going to be in because her babysitter had called in sick and she had to stay home and care for her young child. Joan's supervisor, Sylvia, told her that she had already exceeded the allowed number of absences and warned that if she did not report to work, she could be suspended. When Joan did not report for her shift, Sylvia suspended her for fifteen days.

In a subsequent hearing, Joan argued that it was not her fault that the babysitter had canceled, and protested that she had no other choice but to stay home. Sylvia pointed out that Joan had not made a good faith effort to find an alternate babysitter, nor had she tried to swap shifts with a co-worker. Furthermore, Sylvia said that the lack of a babysitter was not a justifiable excuse for being absent.

Questions:

1. Was the suspension fair?
2. Did Sylvia act responsibly?
3. Should Joan be fired?
4. Should the babysitter be fired?
5. Was Sylvia fair in her actions?
6. Is there ever a solution for working mothers?
7. Should working fathers take turns staying home?
