Why is cellular respiration considered to be an energy-releasing metabolic pathway? What are the key differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
Energy Releasing Pathways
This discussion has two parts. Be sure to address both parts.
Part 1: Below are a few questions that will help you think about how our bodies convert energy rich foods to molecules like ATP that can be used to power our bodies. Take a question or two and expand on it. If you have questions, post them.
Why is cellular respiration considered to be an energy-releasing metabolic pathway? What are the key differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
What are the main reactants and products of aerobic respiration?
What are the three stages of aerobic respiration. Where in a cell does each stage occur?
How does the cell utilize ATP generated by respiration?
Part 2: Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is an interesting process, a little complex, but once it makes sense it is great.
There are two major components that I would like you to focus on. One is the capture of energy in chloroplasts, on the thylakoid membrane. That energy is derived from the sun. The sun is captured in the photosystems that are housed in the thylakoid membrane. These are the light dependent reactions.
Some of you, in this discussion, please describe the light dependent reactions. What is happening in these reactions? What are the products? What are the reactants?
Then, there is a second set of reactions, the light-independent reactions. The light independent reactions use energy made in the light dependent reactions and make an important product.

Handi Inc., a cell phone manufacturer, procures a standard display from LCD Inc. via an options supply contract. At the start of quarter 1 (Q1) Handi pays LCD $15 per option. At that time Handis forecast of demand in quarter 2 (Q2) is normally distributed with mean 15,000 and standard deviation 5,000. At the start of Q2 Handi learns exact demand for Q2 and then exercises options at the fee of $45 per option (for every exercised option LCD delivers one display to Handi). Assume Handi starts Q2 with no display inventory and displays owned at the end of Q2 are worthless. Should Handis demand in Q2 be larger than the number of options held, Handi purchases additional displays on the spot market for $80 per unit. a. How many optimum options should Handi purchase from LCD, Inc. at the start of Q1 to minimize expected total procurement cost? b. What is the chance that there is a need to procure at the spot market with only 7500 options signed? c. Compute Expected Total Procurement Cost with 10,000 options.

What is a discipline? What is a profession? What is the difference? What are examples of each?
Nurse scholars have claimed that nursing is both a discipline and a profession. In order to understand these claims, we must first know what it means for nursing to have a “unique body of knowledge.” If we assume that nursing does, indeed, possess a unique body of knowledge, we can claim that nursing is a “basic science” rather than an “applied science.” Despite these claims, debate continues about nursing as discipline, profession, and science. Is nursing a discipline? A profession? Is nursing a basic science and/or applied science? In your initial post, state what you think about nursing as discipline, profession, and science. Explore the literature beyond that assigned to you for this week’s readings to help you formulate your position. You should include the following:
What is a discipline? What is a profession? What’s the difference? What are examples of each?
Does nursing fit the criteria for a “discipline” and “profession”?
What is a “basic science”? What is an “applied science”? What’s the difference?
Is nursing a “basic” or “applied” science?
Support your statements with scholarly references. You may use those from the assigned readings for this module, but you must also select and use (via your literature search) a minimum of one scholarly reference outside of assigned readings in your initial post.
Present your posts and replies in a professional, scholarly manner. Use the APA publication manual to format citations and references.

Clarence opened a farm supply store in Montana during the early 1940s. His neighbors in the county were also his customers. Every person who walked into his store felt comfortable. In fact, they would often sit, sip a cup of coffee, or shell some peanuts, and solve the worlds problems before loading up their purchases. Clarence prided himself on knowing what his customers needed to be successful farmers, and he freely gave them advice about which brand of flea dip would work best on their cattle and which tonic would help a colicky horse. By the time he retired, and his son Seth took over, the company had expanded to three stores in three towns and had 14 full-time employees. As a youth, Seth had attended the state college and earned a degree in agricultural business. When he took over the company in 1975, he eagerly applied what he had learned to the family business. He was convinced that technology was the key to success, not personal relationships. Over the years, he struggled to convert all his fathers old, handwritten records to electronic files. Eventually, he installed a completely computerized information system that tracked inventory, personnel, and accounts. He sometimes boasted about being an entrepreneur, but Clarence snorted at that term. Just do whats right for your customers, and youll be doing whats right for yourself, he would retort. When Seth retired in 2015, his daughter Kathy took over the company, which now had 23 stores with 228 employees in three states and one wholly owned subsidiary of 18 gas stations. Kathys vision involved offering a broader range of products than farm supplies. She wanted to sell the image of the family farm. Her stores stocked Western clothing; boots, hats, and jewelry; home furnishings; and even CDs featuring country music. Kathy found herself traveling extensively from the corporate office to the various stores. Finding time to manage everything was a problem, but she had a staff of 12 professionals in the corporate office to assist her. E-mail, laptops, and smartphones helped tremendously. Questions How did communication practices and expectations differ for Clarence, Seth, and Kathy? How do you think the management behaviors differed for the three owners? What contingency factors might each owner have faced while they managed the company?
Contemporary Communication Case Study
Select ONE Case (1-1 – 1-3) from Communicating in Contemporary Organizations, Ch.1, and discuss the communication problem stated in it, based on the concepts you learned from Module 1 readings and additional scholarly sources. Your response should be prompted by the questions for case analysis and include your main thesis, argumentation, and conclusion (2-3 paragraphs). Please remember to cite and reference your sources in APA 7 format.
Case 1-1
Women in the White House
During Barack Obamas presidency, women on his staff were frustrated about their lack of influence. They were often outnumbered by men in meetings. They struggled to contribute to the conversation. When they did get a chance to speak, their contributions were often ignored, or a man would repeat the idea and get the credit.
To counteract this behavior and make their voices heard, the women used a strategy called amplification. When a woman made a key point, other women would repeat it, giving credit to its author. This forced the men in the room to recognize the contributionand denied them the chance to claim the idea as their own.
President Obama soon noticed the technique. He began calling on women more, and the number of women staffers increased as well.
Questions
Why might women be reluctant to speak up in meetings?
What are the potential consequences of letting one demographic dominate workplace discussions and decisions?
What other strategies can people who have been traditionally underrepresented in the workplace use to make their voices heard?
Case 1-2
Ethics and Technology
Chris smiled as he received the analysis packet from his supervisor. He had been working from home for GEH Mortgage Company, analyzing mortgage applications, for the past 3 years. This particular application involved not just a home mortgage but also an entire farmstead, a home and business. Whenever he received an assignment, he did not know how to analyze, he would call on his friend Joel, whom he had known since high school, to help him accomplish such tasks. He compensated Joel, usually with a case of beer, when they got together on the weekends. Chris knew he could trust Joel to do a good job on the analysis, because Joel had double majored in finance and accounting at a regional university. Chris would then tailor the analysis according to the way the firm expected reports to be submitted. He quickly e-mailed the application packet to Joel.
Chris was perceived as one of the most dependable analysts in the division because of his past work, much of which had been farmed out to Joel. He had received accolades and raises as a result and was enjoying his successful career with the firm.
Questions
The method used by Chris is obviously successful, and the company is satisfied with the results. Is it just good business, or is there an ethical dilemma present?
Should Chris confess to his supervisor or just continue the successful deception?
What are the privacy issues, given that the information used in these analyses is proprietary and sensitive?
Does this activity fit the notion of plagiarism?
Do electronic communication and the telecommuting arrangement make Chriss actions more likely than if he were in the office?
Case 1-3
