1- discuss the major anatomical differences between two separate species of early hominins from the Australopithecus genus. Compare and contrast the various anatomical and behavioral characteristics of the species you selected. Once you have done this, which of these two species is a more likely candidate as a direct ancestor to Anatomically Modern Humans?
2- identify three specific variables that YOU think drove early Hominin evolution. These variables can be related to anatomy but remember—behaviors are the precedent prior to widespread anatomical changes of any species. From the two to three variables you identified, select one that may be the most influential in human evolution, and explain why YOU think this variable is the most important.

A medical researcher wants to determine if an experimental drug to control the COVID 19 Virus has any effect on the motor skills scores of human subjects. She randomly assigns patients to 1 of 2 groups. Nine hundred subjects in group 1 (the experimental group) are given an oral dose of the drug prior to testing (mean = 9.78, standard deviation = 4.05); 1000 subjects in group 2 (control group) receive a placebo (mean = 15.10, standard deviation = 4.28). Test the null hypothesis (at 95% confidence) that there is no difference between the population means of the drug group & the placebo group. What do you conclude? Please show work. Thank you very much!

Which of the following statement is incorrect? Select one:
a. Calvin Klein, Liz Claiborne, The Gap, and other garment industry companies that manufacture clothing outside of the United States to control labor costs must balance the moral issues of human rights against their obligations to stockholders.
b. Psychological and political factors also affect exchange rates.
c. Most of the answers are correct.
d. When the U.S. dollar strengthens against the Mexican peso, U.S. importers of Mexican goods will require more dollars to purchase Mexican goods that are sold in pesos.
e. The risk that a multinational corporation faces due to fluctuating exchange rates can be managed by using forward contracts, futures contracts, and currency swaps.

(17.1) The psychology of terrorism According to the Global Terrorism Index, terror-related death have increased nearly 10 times since 2000. http://www.economicsandpeace.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/2015-Global-Terrorism-Index-Report.pdf While there was 3.329 recorded acts of terror in 2000 we have seen 32,685 in 2014. It makes you stop and ask questions - like: 1. How can extremist groups treat fellow human beings with such cruelty? 2. Why do their barbaric brands of violence appeal to young people around the globe? 3. Who are their recruits, and what are they thinking when they target innocent lives (sub question is are those recruits mentally ill)?

Question 1: You set up a 200 µL PCR to amplify a 1-kb fragment by adding 20 µL of a 500 nM primer that is 20-bp in length. How many times would you expect to find the exact 20-bp sequence in the human genome (using a genome size of 3.0 E+9 bp) at random? How many moles of the primer have you added? How many molecules of that primer have you added? Describe whether this amount of primer is a limiting factor in the success of the PCR in relation to the number of copies generated before a PCR normally plateaus (4 marks; show unit conversions and calculations for full marks).

Develop an activity diagram based on the following narrative which describes a workflow for an application for a job promotion in an organisation.
The applicant completes a Work Performance Review (WPR) document
and submits it to his/her manager. The manager assesses the WPR
document and decides whether to approve the applicant’s
promotion.
Where a promotion has not been approved by the manager, the manager
sends the applicant written feedback on where the applicant needs
to improve for promotion to take place. Where promotion has been
approved by the manager, the manager informs the Human Resource
Manager who will record details of the promotion and send written
notification of the promotion to the applicant. The applicant files
any documentation (described above) received as a result of the
application process

Research 3 plants that grow in the northeastern part of the U.S. The plants you choose should have some practical use for humans, whether it be for food production, medicinal uses, landscaping value, etc. For example, you could choose a plant that was used as a food source for early European settlers, a plant that Native Americans used to treat ailments, or a plant that was used to synthesize a pharmaceutical we use currently.
Please include the following :
Please answer this in detail and include all the points!! thanks

The 21st century opened a new era when global health emerged as a focus for governments, foundations and organizations seeking to raise up vulnerable populations around the world. Yet mechanisms to power that human development have lagged. Disease-specific efforts were once needed, but now it is time to look forward to holistic approaches. This Forum event explored transforming the global health agenda through factors such as global education, innovative financing, and the increased role of low- and middle-income countries in shaping the future.
After watching the webinar Transforming Global Health: A New Vision for the Future, provide your thoughts and reasoning on which of the factors discussed will have the most beneficial impact on the global health agenda?
