3.This first part of the Individual Research Project is an Outline and Annotated Bibliography. The
Outline should provide a very brief
...
tline should provide a very brief overview of what you think you will do in the Policy Brief.
The Annotated Bibliography requires you to summarize at least three peer-reviewed scholarly
sources you will cite in the Policy Brief.
This assignment is designed to get you thinking about your topic in a way that clearly anticipates
the writing you will do for the Policy Brief. We want you to brainstorm and do a bit of research
well in advance of the deadline for the Policy Brief and, most importantly, we want you to put
your ideas down on paper so that we can give you feedback before writing the actual Policy
Brief. In other words, we are asking you to submit an Outline and Annotated Bibliography so
that we can help you write the best Policy Brief possible.
Your Outline should be divided into the following five sections and should be written in
complete sentences:
I. Audience: Identify the audience you are addressing and consider what that audience
is interested in. Who are you talking to in the Policy Brief and what does this suggest
about the approach you should take? (75-100 words).
II. Problem: State how you know the issue exists. What is the proof that students need
to improve this skill? (125-150 words).
III. Importance of Problem: Indicate why this problem matters. What are the
consequences of the problem not being addressed? Why do students need to improve
this skill? (100 words)
IV. Solution: Identify your preferred solution. What solution will work in your context
and why? (75-100 words)
V. Alternative Solution: Identify at least one other possible solution. What other
solutions did you consider? (75-100 words)
The total length of the Outline should be between 450 and 550 words.
When you submit your Outline, you must also include an Annotated Bibliography. An Annotated
Bibliography is an alphabetical list of research sources that provides bibliographical data (the
title, author, date, publisher, etc.) and a short summary or annotation of the source.
Your Annotated Bibliography should contain a minimum of three scholarly or peer-reviewed
sources, each with an accompanying annotation that is between 150 and 250 words long. The
annotations must summarize the research question or thesis, research methodology, results, and
conclusion. Annotations must include summaries and paraphrased information, NOT quotations.
A good annotation will include two separate paragraphs: 1) a paragraph summarizing the
research question or thesis, research methodology, results and conclusion; and 2) a paragraph
commenting on why this source is relevant for your research.

bacteria). Obligatory anaerobes require absence of oxygen.
You are researching how a facultative anaerobe transitions from anaerobic to aerobic respiration along the length of the human intestine (small and large intestine), where oxygen levels – and with them respiration - vary from atmospheric levels of oxygen (aerobic respiration) to no oxygen (anaerobic respiration).
You grow cultures of a facultative anaerobic bacteria in flasks with different levels of oxygen that mimic the conditions in the 7.5m long human intestines and collect data on the growth rates of the bacteria (number of bacterial colonies) under the different conditions. Time food spends in the small intestine, 2.5m long, is 4 hrs. The time taken for food to pass through the entire length of the intestine is between 24 and 72 hrs.
To determine oxygen levels in your flasks, you use the ratio of oxygen to nitrogen, which you vary between 0 (no oxygen) and 0.25 (atmospheric levels of oxygen). You assume that for conditions where r<0.01 your bacteria will be obligatorily anaerobic, and aerobic respiration will be observed from r=0.05.
If the oxygen ratio goes from 0.25 to 0 over 7.5 m, and rO2 = 0.25 – 0.03x (x=distance along the intestine) describes the relationship between oxygen ration and the length of path travelled by the bacteria in the intestine, how long will it take bacteria to pass from the small into the large intestine? Explain how you arrived at your estimate.

consulting basis by Loving Organic Foods. In order to get a better idea of what might have motivated customers’ buying habits you are asked to analyze the ages of the customers who have purchased organic foods over the past 3 months. Past research done by the Diligent Consulting Group has shown that different age groups buy certain products for different reasons. Loving Organic Foods has sent a survey to 200 customers who have previously purchased organic foods, and 124 customers have responded. The survey includes age data of past customers who purchased organic foods in the previous quarter.
Case Assignment
Using Excel, create a frequency distribution (histogram) of the age data that was captured from the survey. You should consider the width of the age categories (e.g., 5 years, 10 years, or other). That is, which age category grouping provides the most useful information? Once you have created this histogram, determine the mean, median, and mode.
After you have reviewed the data, write a report to your boss that briefly describes the results that you obtained. Make a recommendation on how this data might be used for marketing purposes. Be sure to conduct adequate research on organic foods industry, organic market analysis, and healthy food industry using IBISWorld database or other databases such as Business Source Complete (EBSCO) and Business Source Complete - Business Searching Interface in our online library. Provide a brief description on the industry background and the consumer changing attitudes and behavior toward healthy lifestyles. Also identify the customer demographics of organic food industry and explain how the customers of Loving Organic Foods are different from this target market.
Data: Download the Excel-based data file with the age data of the 124 customers: Data chart for BUS520 Module 1 Case. Use these data in Excel to create your histogram.

e investigations we determined that the program input size can be varied in a wide range and for N-bit input the program result is also always N – Bit long. Additionally we found that the program working time depends significantly on input length N, especially when N is greather than 10- 15 . Our test also revealed, that the program working time depends only on input length ,not the input itself.
During our tests, we fixed the following working times (with an accuracy of one hundredth of a second)
N = 2 – 16.38 seconds
N = 5 – 16.38 seconds
N = 10 – 16.44 seconds
N = 15 – 18.39 seconds
N = 20 – 1 minute 4.22 seconds
We also planned to test the program for N = 25 and N = 30, but for both cases the program didn’t finish within half and hour was forced to terminate it. Finally, we decided for N = 30 to not terminate the program,but to wait a little bit longer.The result was 18 hours 16 minutes 14.62 seconds . We repeated the test for N = 30 and it gave us exactly the same result, more than 18 hours.
Tasks:
a) Find the program working times for the following three cases N = 25, N = 40 and N = 50.

86.1, A ship is conned around a lighthouse on a submerged reef at a constant distance of 10 nautical miles.
...
les. Draw a neat diagram and find the distance between the instants when the lighthouse 040° T and 120° T.
HINT: This is NOT a problem to be solved using cosine rule. Since the distance is constant, the ship will travel along the arc. You should therefore use radian measure to workout the distance along the arc. Also remember that all bearings are from seawards .
2, The length of a shadow of a vertical flag mast 2.5 meters high is 5.2 meters (shadow's length). Find the sun's altitude.
3, From a ship, a light on the edge of a breakwater bore 045° T . The ship was steering a course of 060° T. After travelling for 30 minutes, the same light bore 280° T and distance off 2.0 nautical miles. Find the speed of the vessel.

88.Hi! I need help with my Netlogo homework, where I need to have turtles create an image of a tree.
...
sically, Tree 1 is just a vertical line, Tree 2 is that line plus two branches, Tree 3 is Tree 2 but with two additional branches on each of the original ones, and so on. Please help! I don't understand how recursions are supposed to be used with this and how to call a previous tree function. Below are additional instructions my teacher gave me.
draw-tree3 [ levels blen bangle]
levels : number of levels
blen : length of each branch
bangle : angle of the branches
The branch length should decrease as the function calls itself. This does NOT mean you decrease a variable, it means that just like fib(n-1) or fib(n-2) you decrease the parameter as you pass it to the next copy.
----Your slider is the STARTING value, the parameter can be changed every time your function is called.
Have the branch decay by multiplying by 0.85 before passing it to the next recursive call.
-When this works, try making the branch decay a slider from 0.1 to 0.9 in increments of 0.01
