In your one or two paragraph summary (should take up of the page or so, single-spaced), please answer the following in your own words:
Describe the three distinct population processes (1. Arrival 2. Establishment 3. Spread) of the biological invasion of the gypsy moth in North America (both the United States and Canada).
The authors describe the rate of spread of gypsy moth in North America over the last 100 years as extremely slow, and not necessarily continuous. What factors (there are several!) have contributed to inhibiting a rapid range expansion of this invasive insect?
What do the authors say are several possible mechanisms that contribute to the observed Allee effect in low-density populations of gypsy moth (page 29)?
Do you think the Slow the Spread (SLS) approach to monitoring gypsy moth populations is an effective management technique? Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the program?

Acids and Bases, pH and pOH
Duration: 9:01
User: n/a - Added: 1/11/16
Watch the video concerning this week's topics of acids and bases. Make an outline of the video (50 points) and give two examples of worked problems similar to the ones worked in the video (50 points) and submit it here. This assignment is worth 100 points.
How to write an outline
An outline presents a picture of the main ideas and the subsidiary ideas of a subject. Some typical uses of outlining might be an essay, a term paper, a book review, or a speech. For any of these, an outline will show a basic overview and important details. It's a good idea to make an outline for yourself even if it isn't required by your professor, as the process can help put your ideas in order.
Some professors will have specific requirements, like requiring the outline to be in sentence form or have a "Discussion" section. A students first responsibility

Dear,
I would like you to find three academic or other good and objective resources about sustainable fashion. It is crucial that these articles/ websites / reports videos etc. These need to be objective and correct. They shouldnt include any opinions. And should contain the following:
* the major problems related to your topic
* the major actors (governments, NGOs, international institutions, large corporations, start-ups, media, customers, professional groups.) related to the problem(s) in various ways (either they contribute to the problem, they analyse it or they try to solve the problem(s)
* the potential solutions and innovations
research can be done on : Research on internet (OECD library, Statistista environment, WWF reports & videos, United Nation for the environment, NGOs, Futurible, youtube, BBC, France culture.)
Could you please not only provide me with the MLA styles references but also with the links so that I can go bac
research and provide the Web sites and references utilized for the research. Each student must have
a different disease, antimicrobial or vaccine to research.
The term paper must be typed with 1 margins, double spacing and a 12 point Times Roman font.
The paper should also include a reference list. A minimum of five references must be utilized. The
American Psychological Association format must also be utilized for the paper.
2 different Reports from Internet Investigation.
The Internet site chosen must be relevant to current (within the last six months) developments in astronomy (e.g., links within these sites: www.space.com, www.skyandtelescope.com, www.nasa.gov). Submit reports that is typed, double-spaced, single page per report with the source of information indicated (i.e. give the URL, or better yet print the article and attach it to the report).
Overview: In this activity, you will track a fictitious hurricane that is anticipated to strike Hampton Beach in Hampton, New Hampshire. You will assess the data
provided in the scenario, estimating the potential impact and path of the hurricane based on the surrounding geography.
Prompt: A tropical storm has developed in the Atlantic Ocean and has been named Tropical Storm Peter. It is heading west-northwestward at approximately
10 miles per hour.
The current storm track positions Tropical Storm Peter to head toward Portsmouth, New Hampshire. At present, Tropical Storm Peter has wind speeds of
54 miles per hour. It is expected to make landfall as a Category 3 hurricane in approximately six days.
Specifically, address the following critical elements in your submission:
Draw/create a visual that might be seen on the news, showing the potential path of the storm.
Show a rough outline of the coast of Africa and the U.S. coast, and identify the route that depicts
1.Throw ten coins onto a flat surface. Move aside all the coins that landed tails-up. Collect the remaining coins. After tossing them once again, remove all the coins that landed tails-up. Repeat this process until all the coins have been removed. Can you see how this relates to radioactive half-life? In units of tosses what is the average half-life of 25 coins? 50 coins? 1 million coins?
2. Repeat Exercise 26 but use 10 dimes and 25 pennies. Let the dimes represent a radioactive isotope, such as carbon-14, while the pennies represent a nonradioactive isotope, such as carbon-12. Remove only the dimes when they land heads-up. Collect all the pennies and add them to the dimes that landed heads-up. Does the number of pennies affect the behavior of the dimes? Someone gives you two sets of coins. The first set contains 10 dimes and 25 pennies. The second set contains 2 dimes and 25 pennies. Which set of coins has gone through a greater number of tosses? Which set provides the most ra
North Korea is threatening the US and its neighboring nations with a nuclear bomb attack. What type of nuclear reaction is he making use of in his nuclear arsenal? How does it compare with the atom bombs used in Hiroshima during WWII? Compare the processes in both of these and the extent of the possible damage.
Instruction for this project can be attached as "project 1". Additionally, since you'll report bacterial names, I have attached a file regarding how scientific names should be presented called "how to write scientific names and what do they mean." You can pick a bacterium from the attached slides called "Week 4."
PLEASE MAKE SURE THIS SECTION IS ONL 500-550 WORDS. Thank you!
The second part of this assignment is here:
-Design a product that mimics the function of a bacterial structure (such as cell wall, flagellum, pilus ...). Explain how it can be used to better human life.
-Draw an analogy between two bacterial structures and two human body parts based on their functions.
-Use one example to explain how the knowledge on bacterial structure can help us choose drugs to treat different bacterial infection.
