Interpersonal communication Questions1. What is plain speech? Who in Bauman’s article makes use of plain speech? How does the use of plain speech related to hierarchies of power in 17th Century England?2. For the Quakers, what was at stake as a consequence of using plain speech? What did they stand to gain? What did they stand to lose?3. Similar to the situation Bauman describes, we inhabit a linguistic world with a variety of communicative forms and practices that differentially valued. Think of a communicative practiced (broadly conceived) that is devalued by another, larger community. Why might this communicative form be devalued by outsiders? What purposes might this communicative form hold for insiders?

Written Answers (Make sure all of your answers are complete. If you do not have sufficient room for your answer, add lines as needed):Any other sources must be approved by me before use. All answers will be checked for plagiarism. The answers should be written in your own words.1. Explain the difference between quantitative and qualitative data and the purpose of each. 2 pts.2. Provide the steps in the scientific method and give an example of potential bias and how to avoid that bias for each step. 10 pts.3. Define reproducibility in science and explain how experimental design affects reproducibility. 4 pts.4. Explain the difference between correlation and causation and give an example of when they are linked and an example of when they are not linked. 2 pts.5. Write a null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis for the following question: Does the amount of protein X in yeast change when gene Y is deleted? 2 pts.6. What kind of t-test would be needed to perform statistics using your hypotheses? 2 pts.7. What would it mean if the p-value was set at 0.10 for this experiment? 3 pts.8. Before you can determine whether protein X changes, you need to confirm that the gene Y is deleted by doing a PCR amplification and running a gel to compare the size of the wild-type (normal) gene region to the deleted gene region. Describe the steps to PCR amplify the region around gene Y including the reagents needed, function of each reagent, and purpose of each step. 10 pts.9. What kind of experiment could be used to measure whether protein X changed? Explain the steps needed for this experiment including the reagents needed, function of each reagent, and purpose of each step. 10 points.10. When determining the amount of protein X, what is the importance of signal-to-noise ratio? 3 pts.11. Before determining the amount of protein X in each sample, you need a standard curve of varying known amounts of protein X related to signal. Using the data below, calculate a standard curve giving the equation and r2-value for the standard curve (this can be done in Excel or other graphing program). 4 pts.12. At the end of this exam is the data for the class. For questions 12, 13, and 14; only use the data next to your name as “your data”. Use the standard curve you found in question 11 to calculate the amount of protein X for each of your samples. Show your work either by hand or with Excel equations listed. 3 pts.13. Calculate the Mean and Median for your wild-type, and the Mean and Median for your gene Y deletion. Show your work either by hand or with Excel equations listed. 4 pts.14. Using the critical t-value table from lecture, perform the correct t-test on your data and state whether your data is statistically significant. Show all of your work either by hand or with Excel equations listed. 10 pts.15. What precautions should be taken to store your data & what data would be submitted for a paper? 3 pts.

Be sure to give details from the article about each classroom’s environment, curriculum, and the role of the teacher.Lareau Book – In 3-4 paragraphs, answer the following about Lareau’s research.6.Pick two families from the Lareau book – one middle/upper class family and one working class/poor family. How do the child-rearing approaches of “concerted cultivation” and “accomplishment of natural growth” help us understand the classroom socialization happening in the Smith classroom and the classroom socialization happening in the Huntington classroom? In other words, what are the connections between “concerted cultivation” and “accomplishment of natural growth” and what the students are learning in the two classrooms?

Critical Thinking PresentationYou will submit this document in written form on blackboard as a report with an original chart. You will then present your family and research explanation in class. Please prepare to speak for at least 7 minutes.Prompt: Given the changing nature of family, students will describe what they believe the makeup of the average family of 2070 will be. You will specifically predict how the roles of men, women, and children will change.· Students must cite at least one scholarly source per chosen trend; a minimum of 3 scholarly sources are required for this presentation. (Students will provide historical evidence and current statistics that supports the dynamic nature of the student’s 3 chosen trends)· You will present a graph chart of your 3 trends over history to provide evidence for your future predictions. Through research, integration, and analysis of statistical and/or census data related to your chosen trends.Example trends in families include:- Shifts in gender roles- increase in divorce rates- decline in rates of marriage- rise in cohabitation- same-sex-marriage/couple- increase in singlehood- unmarried parenthood- choosing to remain childless- single parent families/blended families· Has your opinion of family been affected by what you have learned and has it influenced your thoughts about the future of families?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2016), Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is a serious, preventable public health problem that affects millions of Americans.
