Cultural Geography

This time I want you to do follow up post regarding #190616965.

Your follow-up should consist of two parts, and be about 150-250 words total for both parts (or more, if you'd like). You may choose to respond to the same classmate or to two different classmates (one for each part).
1. First, comment on a classmate's meme/macro/gif. The comment can take any form; you can draw connections to something from your daily life or another meme, highlight certain elements and explain why you think they're notable, comment on its cultural specificity, etc. However, it should be substantive, i.e., do not simply state that it is "funny", "interesting", or things of the like.
2. Second, answer/respond to a classmate's question. Again, this should be substantive; do not simply state it is "an interesting question", etc.


I attached the screenshot of post which I want you to reply to. I thought this classmate's post is relevant to your post #190616965.

Also I have uploade

green marketing

Research and give one example of green marketing that you believe to effective and trustworthy.  How so? What is the product being marketed?  What makes the marketing effective?  What makes you believe them? (3-5 paragraphs)

Research and give one example of greenwashing.  What is the product being marketed (cannot be Fiji water)?  Why do you believe that this is an example of greenwashing?  Explain how you feel deceived. (3-5 paragraphs)

Restoration Phamplet

Select a scenario from the list below:
1. There is a species of fish (with low numbers) that is having trouble traveling up and down the river because of a dam.
2. Chose an area that is economically depressed but has a lot of species diversity, you need to protect the species while providing jobs for locals.
3. An animal is being poached for its horn which is believed in some cultures to cure many diseases, it is not critically endangered.
4. The demand for farming is increasing, which is destroying native forests and affecting their biodiversity.
5. An animal is starting to become isolated because it is afraid to cross roads created by deforestation.
6. Local birds typically migrate over the winter, but people are feeding them and thermal pollution at a local stream is keeping the water warmer the birds are not migrating, resulting in water pollution.
7. A drought has been going on for a period of time; the water needed for homes, businesses, and farms has decrea

Sustainability Assessment and Planning

Address four (4) of the following  five (5) questions in approximately 750-1000 words for each question. Additional research on the questions will likely be required but you will not need to include any citations or references. Your answers must demonstrate you command of the course content thus far as well as your ability to building upon given content with your own research, applying your opinions and practically apply what you have learned.

Responses

My assignment is to respond to at least two classmates by defending which device made the largest difference in the history of science and technology. So respond to their discussions in 4 to 5 sentences.

This was the discussion post:
Initial prompt: Choose an electrical or magnetic device (resistor, capacitor, diode, fuse, transformer, motor, generator, ammeter, voltmeter, etc). In your 300-400 word initial post, explain the purpose of the device and how its invention changed circuitry, power transmission, or power generation.

These were my classmates responses:
1.
A diode is an electric component that is specialized to act as a one-way switch (Braza, n.d.). A diode is responsible for conducting electric current in only one direction, while blocking current from the opposite direction. In simple words, a diode acts as a one-way switch for current in a built-in electric field. A diode has two sides, a positive side and a negative side. The polarity in a diode i

Diversity, Benefits and Detriments of Microbes

Diversity, Benefits and Detriments of Microbes

Microbiology is both a basic and an applied science. It is not a single subject! It has many areas of specialization, including bacteriology, mycology (study of fungi), phycology (study of algae), virology, medical microbiology & immunology, public health, food microbiology, biotechnology, microbial genetics, and cell & molecular biology. In this assignment, we will discuss some of the various disciplines associated with microbiology and the beneficial microbes associated with them.

For your main discussion post (first post),
A. You must choose from among the beneficial organisms below.
B. It is required of all students to reserve their discussion topic using the following procedure:
I. Click Week 1 Discussion, above, to enter the Discussion. 
II. Click Create Thread and type the number and scientific name of the organism you will discuss in the subject line to reserve your topic on a first come/fi

Discussion
1. Before you answer the questions in this Discussion Forum, read the publication "This Dynamic Earth".



2.  Choose any 3 of the 8 topics/questions below and answer the related questions in the appropriate thread of this Discussion. Each well-thought relevant answer to the question, consisting of a substantive paragraph is worth up to 5 points for a total of 15 points for this assignment. The late policy is 10 % per calendar day. The due date is in the calendar in the global navigation bar.

Q.1  Distribution of Volcanoes: Why most volcanoes in the world (95%) are located along mid-oceanic ridges or found in chains parallel to trenches?

Q.2: Sea-floor topography: Why are trenches bordering chains of volcanoes and island arcs? What happens at trenches? How do oceanic ridges form?

Q. 3 Ocean floor age: Why the ocean floor is progressively older as you move away from the oceanic ridge? Why there is no ocean floor on Earth older tha

Trichomonas vaginalis

Discuss Trichomonas vaginalis and tell what type of microbe it is, what disease it causes, where and when it was discovered, the signs and symptoms of disease, transmission, course of disease, virulence factors, laboratory diagnosis, treatments, preventions and sequelae. paraphrasing from only credible academic sources. You may not directly quote from your sources, minimum elaboration on the topic of a minimum of 300 words and maximum of 400 words. cite your credible academic reference sources with parenthetical in text citations and provide full end ref information in APA 7th Edition format.

Policy Memo

For this assignment there are 2 parts you need to complete:

- Identify and summarize the topic of your policy memo. (atleast 135 words)
Choose a science &/or energy policy issue related to physics that interests you. The topic of your memo is very important, so do some research and think carefully about it.  You should choose a specific issue that is of interest to you, that you can understand, that you can find adequate information about, and that is actually a question with different possible answers.

- For the actual written memo (Part II), you will need to use a broader and deeper range of sources. (atleast 135 words)
You also need to determine who your audience will be. There are at least two considerations.  First, who will be interested in your topic, and who might be able to act on the recommendations that you make?  Second, do you plan to write your memo for a layperson or for someone with technical knowledge?
