This should demonstrate the following qualities: (1) a thorough understanding of the issues; (2) substantial detail demonstrating critical thinking skills and real world experiences. (3) clear reflection of information from the assigned reading(s) and/or other student research; where such readings and research is appropriately cited using APA citation standards; and include in cite text (3) applications or examples from current issues, events, and/or student experiences that influenced their analysis are given in the post.Needs to be 200 and 400 words and secondary posts may often be 100 words or more. That said, the response quality demonstrating concept application is the primary determiner.

In recent news, heated debate among lawmakers persists regarding the condition of the current Veteran’s Administration (VA) and its role to provide significantly better health care and shorter wait times for this growing population segment. Because many of our Veterans require both physical and psychological attention (primarily related to PTSD), discuss how state and national policies should adapt now and in the future toward helping our Vets better assimilate back into society–body, mind, and spirit. Do you advocate for privatization of the VA system or any social entitlement, such as Medicare or Medicaid as a method for improvement? Explain.

Use these references and include APA in- text citations and 1 additional current peer review journal.

I consider erosion to be both destructive and constructive. Here are the reasons for that.

I think that erosion is destructive since it can break down and destroy landforms. Water, ice, wind and gravity can all cause destructive erosion as they move sediment from one place to another. Land erosion can make some slopes become unstable and lead to landslides. Wind erosion can be very destructive as well. The North American “Dust Bowl” of the 1930s is a good example of that. There, strong winds eroded most of valuable topsoil and devastated local economies. As a result, thousands of people whose lives were dependent on agriculture were forced to leave the area. Water can cause erosions of valleys as rushing streams and rivers wear away their banks. In addition, during coastal erosion, people can lose their homes and businesses.

On the other hand, erosion can be constructive. It can help in formation of new landforms as sediment gets deposited after being carried from one place to another. Sandbars and river deltas are good examples of that. In addition, as the wind moves topsoil from one place to another, it can help construct good soil in an area that needs it.

I think that people should intervene in areas that are being affected by erosion if it becomes a danger to human life. For instance, if there is a possibility of erosion of coastal homes and/or businesses, people should intervene by helping with evacuation efforts. They can also help to rebuild and/or fix what has been damaged or destroyed due to erosion.

From the reading, I know erosion is the the process by which the surface of the earth is worn away by the action of water, glaciers, winds, and waves. Destructive erosion is where you take part of one land from away to create a new one. It sounds erosion is a destructive force. If we look at the example of water erosion, the water flow take part of water bed away to create a flat one at the end of rivers. Also there is a v-shaped valley to u-shaped valley. This u-shaped valley use to be a v-shaped valley until ice eroded it away. The ice cuts into the rock and curves it out to form a u-shaped valley.

I don’t think that man should intervene in areas that are being effected by erosion because the erosion is a nature process. The areas effected by erosion will be changed day by day. This areas will eventually have the cliff falls down. No matter what man do for these area, man can’t beat the power of nature. We see a lot of examples form the videos. If you built houses around the erosion areas, once there is heavily rain, the water flow will cause more, severe and quick erosion. Even man build dams to protect their house, the dams will collapse. The only thing man can do is running away from these areas.

Man can not change nature features, but we can change the way we live on this earth. The most important thing man should do is to protect the earth. We should do recycle and reuse items for our daily life. in this way, the energy flow in our earth will be less dramatic. The erosion from water, glaciers, winds, and waves will be slower.

Case Study:

Janet, a 20 year-old college student, is experiencing a five-week history of itchy eyes and nasal congestion with watery nasal discharge. She also complains of a “tickling” cough, especially at night, and she has had episodes of repetitive sneezing. Janet gets frequent “colds” every spring and fall.

Physical Examination

Vital Signs: Temp, 98.8; BP 110/68; Pulse 72; Respirations 18

Skin: Flaking erythematous rash on the flexor surfaces of both arms

Head, Eyes, Ears, Nose, and Throat: Tender over maxillary sinuses; sclera red and slightly swollen with frequent tearing; outer nares with red, irritated skin; internal nares with red, boggy, moist mucosa and one medium-sized polyp on each side; pharynx slightly erythematous, with clear postnasal drainage

Lungs: Clear to auscultation and percussion

Discussion Questions:
1. Provide three differential diagnoses based on Janet’s subjective and objective data and discuss your reasoning for each.

2. What additional history questions would be useful in your evaluation of Janet?

3. Discuss the pathophysiological process of your primary diagnosis.

4. Differentiate the types of hypersensitivity mechanisms.

5. As per your analysis, what type of hypersensitivity reaction is Janet experiencing?

Human Impact on Climate Change PowerPoint

After learning about several ways in which our everyday actions impact climate change, choose one action to conduct more research on and create a PowerPoint presentation to tell us more! Use the unit material and reliable online resources to gather more information.

There are several ideas with information throughout the unit but there is even more information out in the world! Think about what you do every day, and how the activity uses energy or natural resources. Think about a product you buy—how it was made, what natural resources were used to make it? You can also do a quick google search of “everyday activities that effect the environment” and start reading some articles for more ideas.

Remember to use reliable sources from the Internet. There is a lot of misinformation out there and finding reliable information can be difficult. The best sources of reference material for your presentation are scientific journals found in the CSU Online Library databases. Click here for a biology research tutorial that demonstrates how to locate library resources relating to biology You can also find reliable statistics at organization websites listed in the Unit under “Combat Climate Change.”

Your presentation must include:

  • What everyday activity or product have you chosen to present? Why did you choose this activity or product? Why is it important?
  • Connect the activity/product to its impact on the environment and climate change. How does doing the activity or making the product use natural resources, disrupt habitat, impact wildlife or other effects on the environment?
  • Report data and statistics, with references, on how this activity/product effects the environment.
  • What can people do to decrease the activity/product’s impact on the environment?

Be sure to follow the formatting and guidelines provided below:

  • Include at least three visual aids.
  • Include three reliable references, and at least one source must come from the CSU Online Library.
  • Use bulleted information on slides (five lines or fewer).
  • Include details in the speaker notes (more information that you would say during an actual presentation).
  • Include a separate title slide and separate reference slide.
  • Use an appropriate font and background.
  • Include at least 11 slides, but not more than 15 slides (not counting your title slide and reference slide).
  • Use correct APA format for references and citations, and use correct grammar and spelling.
  • Upload the presentation as a .ppt or .pptx file.
