Group Discussion Evolution can be defined as the paradigm shifts involved during the various transformations experienced by the entire population of a species over generations. During such changes, genetic variations are the controlling factor being prompted by gene mutation or genetic recombination (NIH, 2020). The occurring genetic variations interfere with gene activities or protein function, which later results in specific character trait disparities. The actual and genetic survival changes are passed down from one generation to the other as a survival technique(NIH, 2020). Moreover, such transformations show a significant deviation from the original ancestral species (NIH, 2020). However, only specific types of mutations are responsible for evolution. Therefore, hereditary mutations that occur within the egg or sperm cell component are the only considered sources of genetic influence on evolution. The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is used in the discovery and comparison of nucleotide or amino acid sequences. Similar sequences are considered homologous (Themes & Co, 2020). Homology can sometimes occur for genes of different organisms; therefore, these organisms are believed to have a common ancestry (Themes & Co,…

Information Retrieval Paper Task #1- Research Problem and Question using PICO Format In the space below, identify the clinical problem in the workplace setting that will serve as the focus of your information retrieval paper. Make sure that the problem is one that would be under your complete control as a nurse. Summarize your thoughts, what would you like to see changed? Write 2-3 well-written sentences for full credit. Clinical Problem (Type in the box below)       In the nursing and healthcare setting, there has been the challenge of healthcare-acquired infections that continue to derail nursing staff and patients’ health. Healthcare acquired infections refer to the infections that patients or healthcare staff may contract while receiving or providing treatment in clinical or surgical conditions. HAI’s are a deterrent to a quick recovery, contributing to increased costs for patients and healthcare facilities. Particularly at such a time of the COVID-19 pandemic, HAIs have gained attention due to the disease’s high infection rate and increased emphasis on wearing PPEs and observing safety. To minimize HAIs, there should be a strict…

Barker’s Experience and Cultural Understanding Towards the end of the film, Barker reflects on the healing ritual that he witnessed for Kim Seok-Chul, and describes how he (Barker) gained a different perspective on the music after that experience. In your own words, how do you think that Barker was transformed by that experience of witnessing the healing ritual, and what questions did it raise for him? What is your own reaction to that scene in the film? Simon Barker had a chance to witness one of the spectacular events before Kim Seok-Chul passed on. The event was such a special thing that barker was so amazed to witness. The healing ceremony that Kim performed was fascinating to Simon. The ceremony included traditional narrative singing with the incorporation of drums to the ceremony. Simon gained a different perspective on music. He was able to understand the different roles that music could play in society. He came to understand that music was not just a technique that could be developed but rather expressions of cultures’ spirits. The thought was an eye-opener to…

Quality function deployment (QFD) refers to an over-all concept that provides a means of translating customer requirements into the appropriate technical requirements for each stage of product development and production. The stages of product development referred to, in this case, include; marketing strategies, planning, product design, and engineering, prototype evaluation, production process development, production, and sales. The article provides a literature review of the QFD based on a reference bank regarding 650 QFD in Japan and the United States. Also, a partial list of the QFD organizations, software’s and online resources have been accounted for in the article. A categorical analysis of the QFD applications in terms of why and where it has been applied, such as for what purposes and to which industries that have applied the QFD, has also been analyzed. The article also has reviewed the methodological development of the QFD, which includes quantitative methods that can be applied to it as well as its extensions and implementations issues. The various quantitative methods that have been suggested to work with QFDs in helping achieve reliability and objectiveness…

Variations in Drug Response     After looking at the real-life facts presented in the two cases, several factors must be considered in the description provided. In this case, the first factor is the age difference between the two individuals under the assessment. Ms. Jones is far much younger than Mr. Smith, with an age difference of approximately 35 years. Secondly, the mobility of the two patients concerning their size is another factor that cannot be neglected. Given that Ms. Jones is a trainer, I would probably assume that she is physically fit since she engages her body in exercise regularly. On the other hand, she could probably know the most healthy diets, thus eats well. Simultaneously, participating in regular aerobic exercise implies that she has a smaller body size and weight compared to Mr. Smith. Other factors that influence variations in drug response besides age and body size are pathological conditions (Madian, Wheeler, Jones & Dolan, 2012). Pathological conditions are associated with the functioning of body organs such as the liver and kidney. Worth noting is that the pathological…

Drawbacks of Regression Analysis Multi-collinearity- these are cases where two or more explanatory variables in a regression model are highly correlated, which makes it difficult to differentiate the individual effects on the dependent variable. This drawback usually leads to the estimated OLS coefficients being statistically insignificant and even have wrong sign. Heteroscedasticity- This drawbacks sets in when the statistical assumption that the variance of the error term being constant for all independent variables is violated and found not to hold. It leads to inefficient estimates of the standard errors, including incorrect statistical tests and confidence intervals. Regression models are sensitive to outliers and negligible data- with outliers having univariate or multivariate basis, regression models such as liner factors in such data causing huge statistical errors. Most regression models use incomplete data, and falsely conclude that a correlation is a causation. This drawback can lead to inferences being made based on related but not proved cases. Linear regression only focuses on the mean of the dependent variable and ignore the rest of the variables, hence the information and conclusion in not…

Personal assessments The assessment identified numerous traits that are both beneficial and detrimental to my personal and professional life. The first assessment addressed personal values; the results identified that emphasis was placed on physical health, professional development, familial relations, and intellectual growth. The traits are essential for personal as well as professional development. However, ethical responsibilities require addressing, the society and community have significant impacts on how a region develops economically and socially. By investing more in the community through various activities, it is possible to help others attain proficiency and satisfaction from their occupation. Spiritual traits are not an issue of much importance as religion is being demystified using scientific methodologies and research. The second assessment addressed the two-factor profile; both motivating and hygiene factors were high and had similar values. From the values’ interpretation, I have high motivating factors, meaning specific work elements induce job satisfaction. On the other hand, the Hygiene factor demonstrated the ideal hygiene management needed to encourage job satisfaction. From a personal perspective, job satisfaction is vital as it allows for personal and professional…
