When you consider the lifespan and survival strategy of an organism, it is always useful to also consider their environment, resources, and interactions in and between populations. Humans are a K-selected species. Humans possess a relatively stable population and tend to reproduce in low numbers. They expend a vast amount of time and resources caring for their young and can expect them to survive long into adulthood. Mosquitoes, however, are an r-selected species. They live in ephemeral or short-lived environments and must be highly adaptive in their reproductive strategies - in very wet seasons, they will "boom" and many, many young will be created and abandoned to fend for themselves thus many do not survive into adulthood. In a dry season, young may not be created in such high numbers. The reproductive strategy of the mosquito is limited by the seasons and the climate. K selected species strategies: Research and find a K-selected species (other than humans), and explain the pressures and resources that impact this strategy. Don't forget to explain how your chosen organism works to combat pressures of selection, resource availability, and environmental stressors that impact successful offspring production.

A Lab Report for the following lab Experiments and fill data sheets. Ex. 6-1, 6-3, 5-3, 5-4, 5-10, 5-20 Total points: 20 Lab Report: ONLINE CANVAS SUBMISSION Format, Guidelines & Grading Rubric The main goal of the lab report in this course is to help you gradually develop some analytical and soft skills that will be of use to you later on in your career such as communication and writing skills and quantitative reasoning. The format of the Microbiology Lab report will be similar to the format of a scientific research paper. This report should include three clearly marked main sections: Introduction, Results, Discussion & Conclusion. You will be evaluated based on organization skills, writing skills, accuracy of your qualitative and quantitative recordings, observations and the overall quality of the submitted report. This report should not exceed 3 pages (12 font – single space). MAXIMUM 3 PAGES Introduction (4 point) – The introduction should briefly discuss the main concepts of the laboratory exercises and should clearly summarize the purpose of the experiments and the techniques that you used to perform the laboratory exercises. The introductory section should also state how the lab exercises helped in putting the learning objectives. 1 page Results (8 points) – Please attach your datasheets . You can just separately attach the PDFs along with the report and write , PLEASE SEE ATTACHED Photo graphs need to be added in the word document Discussion & Conclusion (8 points) - This section should thoroughly describe what you learned. It is a synopsis of the results section but is associated with your analysis of the data obtained and your critical interpretation of the results. It should also include a concise report of the conclusions of your results and should demonstrate a good understanding and mastery of the main concepts demonstrated in the lab activities. 1 - 2 page.

Choose ONE prompt and write an essay answering it. Each prompt asks you to focus on a single film. All prompts also require you to engage at least one course reading (which I attached below). The best essays will support their claims with evidence drawn from film form and narrative concepts (as outlined in my lecture and the essay “Film Form and Narrative by Rowe”). You should also make time to re-watch the film you write about. here are the 8 different prompts to choose from the movies to choose from are Zoot Suit (Luis Valdez, 1981), El Norte (Gregory Nava, 1983) , The Devil Never Sleeps (Lourdes Portillo, 1994), and Selena (Gregory Nava, 1997) 1. Fregoso argues that Chicana/o films are political films by, for, and about Chicanas and Chicanos. Choose one film that we have screened and, drawing on Fregoso, write an essay answering the question—who is the film for? In other words, who is the film’s presumed audience or audiences? Be sure to cite specific details from the film to support your argument. 2. Drawing on Fregoso, write an essay about the significance of gender difference in Zoot Suit. You may could focus on the relationship between Hank and El Pachucho, but you can also focus on the wider range of male and female characters in the film, including members of Hank’s family and friends. 3. Drawing on Fregoso, write an essay in which you make an argument about what she calls “vernacular aesthetics” in one of the following films: Zoot Suit, Corpus: A Home Movie for Selena, or Selena. You may want to focus on dance. What is the significance of dance numbers? Do they drive the narrative or interrupt it and to what effect? What does dancing say about conflicts over race and gender? 4. According to Fregoso, El Norte reproduces conventional gender constructions in the characters of Enrique and Rosa: The burden of cultural reproduction thus resides in the woman, in her spirituality and existence. Rosa symbolizes a "peoples" tradition. This Western (Enlightenment) distinction between men, as agents of their own individual story, and women, as agents of cultural reproduction and tradition, is maintained and emphasized by the parallel structure of the narrative. Whereas the film- makers intended to render a neo-Mayan (alternative) vision of an indigenous worldview, El Norte's representation follows the conventional Western division of Nature/Culture, positing female subjectivity in the unknown, Mystery, Nature, and woman as the ground for cultural reproduction and maintenance. Drawing on Fregoso, write an essay where you make an argument about gender difference in the film. You could focus on the Enrique and Rosa, but you might instead want to examine more minor characters. 5. Fregoso writes that “El Norte presumes an articulation (or connection) between political repression in Guatemala and the plight of undocumented Latino immigrants.” How does the film connect the two situations? What is the significance or point of linking the plight of Guatemalans facing repression and the plight of undocumented immigrants? 6. According to Fregoso, in The Devil Never Sleeps Portillo enters “the realm of the imaginative” (90), which partly means that even though it’s a documentary, it makes creative use of elements of film form, including unusual camera angels, props, music and sound. Analyze two creative uses of film form in The Devil Never Sleeps. 7. In her essay about The Devil Never Sleeps, Fregoso argues writes that “Portillo pursues clues and facts from popular forms of knowledge and experience (including legends, gossip, telenovelas, canciones rancheras (folk songs), myth, (and) proverbial wisdom…Portillo pursues the task of producing truth concerning Tío Oscar’s death by juxtaposing popular with official forms of knowledge, refusing to privilege one from over the other” (93). Discuss the significance of 2 examples of popular forms of knowledge in The Devil Never Sleeps. 8. Drawing on Aparico and Paredez, write an essay about how Selena is remembered in either Selena, Corpus: A Home Movie for Selena, or Selena: The Series.

Below you will find 3 Prompts. You will choose 2 to answer. No works cited page is necessary - you are not expected to cite sources outside of those mentioned in the question. If you elect to cite something that is not part of the course material, you may, but you need to attach a works cited page with full MLA citations. You may also cite in-class lectures, if you choose.  The questions below are broad, but that is intentional. The expectation is that you will craft each response as a mini-essay, with a thesis statement and paragraph breaks as you transition between ideas. Your responses should indicate that you have an understanding of the readings in question - so, to the extent required to answer the question (and, preferably, within the 2-page limit) summarize the readings' arguments. You must include at least 4 in-text citations (either direct quotes or paraphrasing) as part of your responses. Upload your responses as a word doc. If you have questions, please feel free to reach out to me. Prompt 1: Analyze Grizzly Man as though you were John Berger. What would Berger say about Timothy Treadwell's behavior? How would he critique Treadwell's treatment of the bears? What desires would Berger say that Treadwell is attempting to fulfill? Prompt 2: Describe the difference between Peter Godfrey-Smith and Bo Ruberg's approaches to Octopuses. How does each writer describe the way in which the octopus transforms our understanding of what it is to be human? Prompt 3: In your own words, summarize Akira Lippit's argument about how the 'animal gaze' is transferred from the animal to the cinematic camera. Describe how you see this transition being addressed in either Au Hasard Balthazar or Nope. (Note that neither film is explicitly addressing Lippit, of course. But this relationship that Lippit is talking about can be a way of analyzing these two texts. I'm asking you to apply a reading to a screening. Your task is not to explain that, secretly, both films are about Lippit's book. You're seeing what your understanding of Lippit's text can add to your analysis of either film)
