Week 1 Discussion Biology

Science can be defined as a systematic approach to acquiring knowledge. Science is based upon facts and evidence rather than beliefs or superstitions. To understand Biology and science, you must first examine how scientific knowledge is obtained.  Science is a process that involves several steps.  Read the description of the steps involved in the scientific method in the text paying close attention to the steps outlined in Section 1.3. Then pick one of the examples below and describe the steps of the scientific method you would use to test the question or find the solution to the problem. In other words, please design a virtual experiment (using the steps of the scientific  prediction, experiment/test, controls, results, conclusions).

1. Will chilling an onion before cutting it keep you from crying?
2. If you shake up different kinds or brands of soft drinks (e.g., carbonated), will they all spew the same amount?
3. Do all breakfast cereals that say they have 100% of the U.S. recommended daily allowance (RDA) for iron really have the same amount?
4. Are all potato chips equally greasy (you can crush them to get uniform samples and look at the diameter of a grease spot on brown paper)? Is greasiness different if different oils are used (e.g., peanut versus soybean)?
5. Does eating breakfast have an effect on school performance?
6. Do the same types of mold grow on all types of bread?
7. Does increasing the ethylene concentration ripen fruit more quickly?
8. Can you use a household water filter to remove flavor or color from other liquids?
9. Does the power of a microwave affect how well it makes popcorn?
10. Can you tell/taste the difference between ground beef, chuck, and round after they have been cooked?

Criminal Victim Studies Discussion Board 5

Computer technology has provided the criminal justice system with a number of benefits such as program algorithms that identify scanned fingerprints and facial recognition.  It has increased intelligence and record keeping capabilities.  However, it has provided literally millions of potential victims of crime.  It started out with financial crimes (such as fraud and ransom software), and it progressed to coaxing victims to locations for murder, rape, and kidnapping.  Victims of computer crimes include the criminal using social media as a weapon.  

The commander of a newly formed cyber-crime unit is very knowledgeable about fraud and various financially motivated viruses.  The one thing he is not that familiar with is the impact that social media has on victims of crimes such as cyber bullying and cyber stalking.

The commander has you temporarily attached from the human trafficking and sex crimes unit to bring his cyber teams up to date on how to understand what cyber victims of stalking and bullying are going through and how best to approach them for maximum effective investigation.

Devise a plan on explaining the aspects of cyber bullying and cyber stalking to the cyber-crime unit.

Focus your discussion on the following:

• Explain why comments made on social media are so impactful on the emotions of the victim.
• Identify the types of cyber-crimes that may ultimately lead to a physical crime against the victim
• Advise the cyber-crime unit team members on what types of assurances should they provide the victim to obtain his or her cooperation in the investigation and to ultimately keep him or her safe.
