The social smile is a developmental milestone most infants reach when they are one to two months old. Not having a social smile by six months of age is commonly considered an early sign of "autism." The spontaneous smile can occur as early as your baby's first few days of life and should be present by the time they are ten weeks old. Also, laughing is a developmental milestone that many babies reach by the time that they are 14 to 18 weeks old.
Given this information, and knowing that "rolling over" is a developmental milestone that most babies reach by the time that they are about six months old, what are some of the concerns a nurse should have if a baby does not meet this milestone within the developmental milestone time-frame given?

Transplant operations have become routine. One common transplant operation is for kidneys. The most dangerous aspect of the procedure is the possibility that the body may reject the new organ. There are several new drugs available for such circumstances and the earlier the drug is administered, the higher the probability of averting rejection. The New England Journal of Medicine recently reported the development of a new urine test to detect early warning signs that the body is rejecting a transplanted kidney. However, like most other tests, the new test is not perfect. In fact, 20% of negative tests and 5% of positive tests prove to be incorrect. Physicians know that in about 31% of kidney transplants the body tries to reject the organ. If the new test has a positive result (indicating early warning of rejection), what is the probability that the body is attempting to reject the kidney?

1. Describe conditions of early Earth that existed before the origin of life. Your description should include a brief explanation of the “massive bombardment” in addition to the other significant characteristics of early Earth.
2. Define evo-devo, heterochrony, and paedomorphosis. Describe an example to help explain the meaning of each of these terms.
3. Explain how the evolution of changes in temporal and spatial developmental dynamics can result in evolutionary novelties.(Suggested length of answer is a short paragraph, 2-5 sentences).
4. Explain why extracting a single (linear) evolutionary progression from a fossil record can be misleading. (Suggested length of answer is a short paragraph, 3-6 sentences).
5. Explain the statement: “Evolutionary change is not goal-directed”. (Suggested length of answer is 3-6 sentences.)

The New England Journal of Medicine recently reported the development of a new urine test to detect early warning signs that the body is rejecting a transplanted kidney. However, like most other tests, the new test is not perfect. In fact, 20% of negative tests and 9% of positive tests prove to be incorrect. Physicians know that in about 32% of kidney transplants the body tries to reject the organ. If the new test has a positive result (indicating early warning of rejection), what is the probability that the body is attempting to reject the kidney?

Consider the following information for a simultaneous move game: If you advertise and your rival advertises, you each will earn $5 million in profits. If neither of you advertises, you will each earn $10 million in profits. However, if one of you advertises and the other does not, the firm that advertises will earn $15 million and the non-advertising firm will earn $1 million. If you and your rival plan to be in business for 10 (ten) years, then the Nash equilibrium is:
A) For each firm to advertise in early years, but not advertise in later years.
B) For each firm to not advertise in any year.
C) For neither firm to advertise in early years, but to advertise in later years.
D) For each firm to advertise every year.

Nature vs. Nurture Write A compare/contrast paper that looks at how our environment and our genes compete to create who we are. There are many speculations as to how nature and nurture affect the overall development of the child. This assignment will require for you to research material specific to nature and nurture and respond to what the material states, your beliefs, and not only to identifying their meaning, but to include a minimum of 4 examples for each. 6 to 8 paragraphs. or 2-3 pages
Identifie what “Nature” means in relationship to early childhood development and gave examples of what it would look like. give 4 examples
Identified what “Nurture” means in relationship to early childhood development and gave examples of what it would look like. Give 4 examples

MArketing:
DIFFUSION OF INNOVATION: For each of the first four stages of the Diffusion of Innovation Theory (Innovators, Early Adopters, Early Majority, Late Majority), choose one product/service that has been adopted by that consumer group. Then make one recommendation as to how the company can help move the product/service to the next stage or keep the product/service in the current stage in the case of Late Adopters. Deliverable: Two sentences for each of the 4 stages. Sentence one should explain the product or service and why you believe it is adopted by the stage as described. Sentence two should make a recommendation. Again, the recommendation should be as to how the company can help move the product/service to the next stage or keep the product/service in the current stage in the case of Late Adopters.

Among a simple random sample of 331 American adults who do not have a four-year college degree and are not currently enrolled in school, 48% said they decided not to go to college because they could not afford school.
(a) A newspaper article states that only a minority of the Americans who decide not to go to college do so because they cannot afford it and uses the point estimate from this survey as evidence. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if these data provide strong evidence supporting this statement.
(b) Would you expect a confidence interval for the proportion of American adults who decide not to go to college because they cannot afford it to include 0.5? Explain.

The American Veterinary Medical Association conducted a survey of veterinary clinics to estimate the proportion that do not treat large animals (cows, horses, etc.). The survey was mailed to a random sample of 120 veterinary clinics throughout the country and of these, 88 responded that they do not treat large animals. (a) (2 points) Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion p of veterinary clinics that do not treat large animals. (b) (5 points) Typically, 70% of the veterinary clinics in the world do not treat large animals. Use a hypothesis test to test whether American veterinary clinics are more likely not to provide this service. Use significance level α = 0.05.
