Lesson NoteTaking: Autonomic Nervous System
Define Autonomic Nervous System:

What are the primary targets of the ANS?

What is meant by autonomic (involuntary)?

In autonomic pathways, the signal must travel across ___________ neurons to get to the target cell.

One neuron will pass through a _____________ to meet the other neuron.

Effectors are: _______________ muscle, ______________ muscle, and some glands

Objective: c09ob28 – State which Autonomic Nervous System is called the “fight or flight system” and explain why.(2)

Objective: c09ob29 – State which Autonomic Nervous System is called the “rest and repose” or “housekeeping” system and explain why. (2)

Sympathetic reflexes – what neurotransmitter is used on the effector, the heart?
Effector
Preganglionic Postganglionic

Parasympathetic reflexes – what neurotransmitter is used on the effector, the heart?
Effector
Preganglionic Postganglionic

Cholinergic – means the postganglionic neuron releases acetylcholine. Which system is cholinergic – the sympathetic or the parasympathetic?
Adrenergic – means the postganglionic neuron releases norepinephrine. Which system is cholinergic – the sympathetic or the parasympathetic?

Which system controls secretion by the adrenal medulla – the sympathetic or the parasympathetic? What two hormones are released by the adrenal medulla?

Emotions, Depression, and Anxiety can all affect the ANS. In the E book what are the four functions that may be affected?

In the healthcare field, it is very important to understand that emotions affect our body. An individual under stress can exhibit many symptoms that are stress related. If you are stressed what signs and symptoms may you exhibit?

What lurking variables or confounders could there be?is this necessarily indicative of a regional preference?

Excel Pivot Tables
In addition to recreating the tables in this tutorials, complete the following:

Create a PivotTable which can show whether the distribution [by count] of orders for fruit vs vegetable products differs across the 7 sales regions.
Modify your table using “Show Values as” so that you can meaningfully compare the split between categories across regions which have different subtotals.

Recode the “Category Recode” column in the spreadsheet to a 0/1 “dummy” coding, choosing “fruit” as the “1” category. Relabel the column so it is titled “Fruit”.

Create a PivotTable which calculates total orders [by count] in each region, and then uses this “dummy” variable with the Sum and Average functions [for three total entries in “Values”] to calculate the number [sum] and percentage [average] in each region that were for fruit products. [This is similar to the example we did of showing % public vs private schools, and the %s should look identical to your PivotTable in A above.]

Create a PivotTable which calculates the average sales per order for each product category (fruit vs vegetable) across the 7 sales regions. Also answer (to the best of your ability with the limited information) whether there could be anything to explain the differences in the $ sales (or order count) between categories across the 7 regions–is this necessarily indicative of a regional preference?

What lurking variables or confounders could there be?
Attach your completed Excel file as your submission. It should have a worksheet for each of the 4 tutorial sections and the additional questions from me above.

Are you capitalizing the right words, centering the right lines, and avoiding giving direction?

Screenplay

Besides understanding the basic three act structure, a major component of this assignment is to see how well you follow the technical guidelines of screenplays. To that end, you will also be graded on the extent to which you follow all of the technical guidelines we discussed in class. Are you capitalizing the right words, centering the right lines, and avoiding giving direction?

How can doctrine, industry, economy of the country, moral and other components contribute to these types of operations:Discuss?

The role and importance of Airpower in peacekeeping operations

The role and importance of the Airpower in peacekeeping operations. Airpower, from military doctrines, with emphasis on the components of Airpower – meaning Airpower is not only airforce-military assets, but also aerospace industry and comercial aviation, operational component, scientific and technological component, morale and professionalism of the fighters. Once again, would like to emphasize all the components of the Airpower, not only the rol of the Airforce.

Which type of nerve fiber (axon) has the fastest transmission because only the voltage-gated channels concentrated at the “nodes” are needed to open?

The Nervous System Part 1
Using myelinated and unmyelinated answer the following questions.

Which type of nerve fiber (axon) has the most voltage-gated channels along the entire length?

Which type of nerve fiber (axon) is a slower transmission because they have the most voltage-gated channels?

Which type of nerve fiber (axon) has the most voltage-gated channels concentrated at the nodes of Ranvier?

Which type of nerve fiber (axon) has the fastest transmission because only the voltage-gated channels concentrated at the “nodes” are needed to open?

Which type of nerve fiber uses less energy because not as many sodium/potassium pumps need to run?

List four reasons that may explain the apparent failure to implement an effective mitigation program. Adequately support your reasons for this apparent failure.

Prepare a short plan to investigate the disaster and assess the flood damage in the city. Identify specific persons you will meet with during your investigation.

You found that over 65% of properties in the low-lying areas were damaged and that there were no significant improvements in damage control since the last flood, which occurred seven years ago due to a failure of the levee system.

List four reasons that may explain the apparent failure to implement an effective mitigation program. Adequately support your reasons for this apparent failure.
Develop a recommendation that you would make concerning improvements in the city’s mitigation plan based on the latest disaster experience.
State and discuss the general principle in this case concerning the necessity and implementation of mitigation measures.

What would you suggest and why? When do you think it is appropriate to use an ARM template and when is it not?

Azure Management Tools Discussion

Discussion 1:
Your supervisor has asked you to configure a new system using existing configurations. He said to use either an ARM template or a blueprint. What would you suggest and why? When do you think it is appropriate to use an ARM template and when is it not?

What kinds of non-digital technology do you frequently use, or have you frequently used throughout your life?Has there been any specific piece of technology in your life that helped transform the way you think about something in the world?

Interview & Field Report

Some suggested question you can consider working into a formal or informal interview include:

Do you associate any form of technology with a significant event or time in your life? Tell me more about that event or time.

What kinds of non-digital technology do you frequently use, or have you frequently used throughout your life?

Has there been any specific piece of technology in your life that helped transform the way you think about something in the world?

How do you use technology in your everyday life? Your creative life? Your work life?

Is there any specific digital or non-digital technology you would have a hard time living without? Why?

How has technology changed throughout your life?

Is there any technology you wish had not changed? Why?

Has there been a specific form of technology that contributed to who you are today? Tell me more.

How are you a different, better, worse, enhanced, safer, etc., person when you use a specific form of technology than when you don’t?

How has your self- worth or self-conception been affected by technology?

You can modify these questions or ask other questions that are appropriate for your interview situation. The above list contains suggested starting points. The idea here is to find connections between your interviewee’s life experiences, self-identity and technology.

Write an introduction in which you briefly describe the person you interviewed. Include some general relevant about their demographic background (year of birth, gender, where they live, etc.)

Indicate the date when the interview took place. This should be during the current semester.

Identify and describe three things you learned from your interview about the impact of specific artifacts or kinds of technology on this person. Do not relay a transcript from your interview. Choose the three things you think are most relevant to the theme of technology and human experience and that you think had the greatest personal significance to your interviewee.

Write a 5-7 sentence conclusion that reflects on your interviewee’s relationship with technology in general. You can consider some of the same kinds of things you did in part one for yourself. Would they be the same person they are today without a specific piece of technology? Did any of the technological artifacts they talk about change them during a specific time of their life? How is technology in general a part of who they are?
