Writing a lab report about an experiment for Dynamics Laboratory Engineering Assignment Help

“Part 1. Directions: Please watch the movie

Your Inner Fish

(https://www.biointeractive.org/classroom-resources/your-inner-fish).

The movie has accurate captions, if you wish to use them. You must watch the movie to answer the questions. Be warned-we will know if you google the answers. You are not allowed to use google docs to write this with other students. You may watch the movie together, but you may not work together to answer the questions. You need to paraphrase your answers-no credit will be given to students who copy the movie subtitles. This is considered plagiarism. If there is any evidence of copying off of another student or any other academic dishonesty, you will receive a zero and the issue will be brought to the university academic dishonesty board.”“Answer the questions using the text boxes provided below each question

.Upload the file through turnitin (on Canvas) using a PDF or a Word File only.”

1. “The theory of evolution is supported by many lines of evidence. This

video discusses many of these lines of evidence (paleontology,

embryology, genetics, etc.) Please summarize 3 different types of

evidence found in paleontology, embryology, and genetics that support

the idea that humans are descended from fish (meaning, describe the

scientific discoveries). No fewer than 3-4 full sentences. 3pts.”

2. “Neil Shubin and his team describe a number of variables that they

consider when identifying where to hunt for early land animals. List

and describe (as in, why do we need to identify these variables) two of

these variables in complete sentences. 2pts.”

3. “ Tiktaalik

has many features that classify it as a “transitional fossil”.List

and describe at least 3 of these features. In your answer, describe

why these features are considered transitional. 3pts.”

4. “What does Sonic the Hedgehog (the gene, not the video game) do?

Explain what can happen if the gene isn’t activated enough or it is

activated too much-give an example of this. 2pt.”

5. “These fossils were found in the Arctic, in Greenland, where it is very

cold and snowy through most of the year. However, their environment

when they were alive 470 million years ago was not cold and snowy. Explain. This isn’t discussed in the movie-you have to think about it

geologically. 2pt.”

6. “Write a paragraph (4-5 sentences) on what you found interesting

about this movie, or what you learned. Feel free to ask any questions

you have about the movie. 2pts.”

“Part 2. Lecture material questions.”

1. “The Cambrian Explosion and the Great Ordovician Biodiversification

event both resulted in major expansions of diversity on Earth. However,

the types of diversity were very different. Explain two differences

between the two, in terms of the types of diversity evolving during the

events. I would warn heavily against googling the answers for this-use

your lecture notes. 4pts.”

2. “The following questions relate to the phylogenetic tree below. Note

that the branches are square shaped instead of v-shaped. The tree can

be read in the exact same way. 2pts.”

a. “What organism is the sister group to

all symmetrical animals?”

b. “Who is sister group to the chordates?”

c. “Mollusks have two shells. Lophophorates have two shells,

though they are constructed differently and made of different

minerals. Is this homology or homoplasy?”

d. “Why might bilateral symmetry have evolved (use your class

notes)?”

3. “Using the below C

13

diagram, answer the following questions.”

a. “The amount of C

13

in the rock record indicates what about

photosynthetic activity? Be specific; mention high and low C

13

.

2pts.”

b. “In the Phanerozoic, there is a large decrease in C

13

at about 250

million years ago. What might the climate have been like during

the decrease, knowing what you know about C

13

(discuss both

temperature and photosynthetic activity in your answer)? 2pts.”

Issue: Student success in their first year is a strong predictor of subsequent degree success.Students experiencing difficulty in first year have a high likelihood to not return for their second year.Interventions to assist at risk students must occur early in the first year if they are to be effective.Ideally, they should start in the first two months of the fall term.This is before the first midterm results are available.Can we identify who will be unsuccessful (or successful) before classes even start?

Questions:What is success for a new student?Getting a GPA above 2.00?Keeping your entrance scholarship?Performing above average compared to similar peers?

What data is available?We will limit attention to data that is captured in Banner.In recent years, we have received electronic transcripts for all Nova Scotia high school applicants raising the possibility of knowing student performance, by course, as far back as grade 10.However, for this study, we will look at admissions data from 2015, before these transcripts were available.

For applicants from Canadian high schools, the high school average (out of 100) was recorded at the time of the admission decision.The average was based upon the 5 courses used for the admission decision.If the admission decision was made in the fall while the student was in grade 12, the average was based upon final grade 11 grades.If the decision was made later, it could include some final or mid-year grade 12 course grades.

Exclusion: High school average data for international students is inconsistent, so we will restrict analyses to Canadian students only.Many new students are transferring from colleges or universities.This is a very diverse student population for whom high school data may not be available or may not be a good predictor of success.We will not include these applicants in this study.Identifying potentially unsuccessful international or transfer students should be addressed in separate studies.

Other admission data includes the date of application and the date of the admission decision, the name of the high school and the province in which it is located, and the student’s program of study.Note that admission requirements vary among Arts, Business, Science and Engineering, so the courses included in the high school average will be different.Similarly, the recommended mix of first year courses varies by program.

The extract occurred in January 2016 and included only those students admitted for September 2015.The fall GPA was recorded for each student.

Exclusion: Some new students drop out during the fall term.Some register but never actually attend.These students will show with no earned credits and a GPA of zero.We will consider them as a distinct population of students that should not be included in this study.We will delete all students with a fall GPA of zero.This action deletes students who were active in the fall but failed all courses.As such, some valid records have been deleted, but there was no way to identify these students separately from those who simply disappeared.

In addition to the above “data cleaning”, several variables have been recoded.It is impossible to look at individual high schools, but this information was used to distinguish between students from the Halifax region and those from elsewhere in Nova Scotia.Sample sizes from many provinces outside Nova Scotia are small, so they have all been grouped together as Out of Province (OOP).Similarly, because of the small sample sizes, Engineering students have been merged with Science students and Environmental Studies with Arts.

Although significant data preparation has been done, you will need to do more data preparation to complete assignments 3 and 4.Some will be necessary to answer the questions posed and some will be needed to conform to the way Excel does data analysis

• Persuasive messages require extra attention to purpose and audience analysis
• Persuasive messages require conscious selection of organizational plan (direct versus indirect.)
• There are different types of persuasive messages (selling ideas, making requests, asking favor, selling a product, making a claim), and each one of these types of persuasion use a specific outline.
• Recognize that your audience is more inclined to say “no” than “yes” or will be in a position of having to choose a limited number of proposals for a given situation. Perhaps just one.
• You must make a compelling argument in your favor based on research which will provide you with data and supporting facts.

To write effective persuasive messages, it is vital that you possess a fundamental understanding of the nature of persuasion. These are not routine messages. Your audience is not predisposed to say “yes” to you. It is also likely that you are facing competition (for funds, a job, a competitive product, another course of action, etc.).

Therefore, you must convince your audience with sufficient evidence that is objective, specific, logical, and reasonable with an appropriate level of emotion. Make certain you understand that you are not simply telling your reader that something should be done. You must explain to your read why it must be done. This will inevitably take more words.

ASSIGNMENT DETAILS

Regardless of your organizational plan, you must (in this order):

1. Create interest and justify your request.
2. Deal with (and neutralize) obstacles. (Do this without “announcing” that this is what you’re doing.)
3. Motivate action (and make it easy to take).
4. Close on a friendly, sincere, and original note (might be just a single sentence).

This is a proven approach to persuasion, and it is the outline I will be looking for in your messages. Keep these things in mind:

1. Each component should be in its own paragraph.
2. Creating interest and justifying the request should comprise the bulk of the message.
3. More than one paragraph may be required for one or more of these components, but dealing with obstacles should not consume more words or space than creating interest and justifying the request.
4. The call to action should be as easy to take as possible.

The range of 400-500 words.

• Use the indirect organization plan.
• Further understand that to write an effective message, you will have to create and/or research reasonable and appropriate details.
• Whenever possible, you should open with a sincere compliment.
• Be specific, be specific, be specific. This will require you to research authentic details.
• Don’t actually call an obstacle and obstacle. Just neutralize it.
• Keep paragraphs short to promote readability (No more than 3-4 sentences in a paragraph!!)
• Edit carefully for cliches, wordy expressions, and precise word choice.

I have attached a screenshot of the prompt. The professional I would like to shadow would be an attorney.

use spark to analyze information to do a project (PPT)

Deliverables: At the end of the week, you will submit a single PDF file with your notebook and your slides. Keep in mind, you are limited to a 10MB PDF, so be judicious about including high-resolution images in your submitted presentation and notebook.

To save your Jupyter notebook as a PDF, File -> Print will open a static view of the notebook in your browser. You may then use your computer’s Print or Save functionality to save the page as a PDF.

There are requirements and rubric in Word, plz follow all of it

there are 1 case as example.
