The cards read: From the Miller Family, rather than: From the Stevenson Family. Ella realized then that she never edited the small, name field at the bottom of the card template before she placed her online order – the initial name on the template was the “Miller Family.” Although the name is written in small font and may or may not be noticeable to the reader, Ella is confronted with a problem.

Background Treponema pallidum is the bacterium that causes syphilis, a sexually transmitted disease. It is highly motile, allowing it to move easily through bodily fluids and spread between hosts. This organism has a single chromosome with relatively few genes and has a distinctive corkscrew shape with multiple twists along its length. Question Based on this information, what type of cell is treponema most likely to be?

Scenario A 57-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital with an infected toe. The infection was spreading rapidly, but doctors were unable to culture the microorganism in the lab. Initially, they treated her with antibiotics (which only kill prokaryotic cells), but the infection did not improve. This led doctors to suspect the microbe was a fungus rather than a bacterium. They administered Amphotericin, a drug that targets ergosterols—a component found in fungal cell membranes but not in human cells (which contain cholesterol instead). Shortly after receiving Amphotericin, the patient improved, the infection stopped spreading, and she was eventually released from the hospital. Question Based on this scenario, what should the doctors’ hypothesis be?

With regards to time management, a problem is that many people put too many items on their to-do list and focus on crossing things off, rather than prioritizing and spending time on doing important tasks.

To his surprise, Jose was recently assigned to an important advertising campaign for the firm’s new client. Although he studied advertising and public relations in college (20+ years ago), he has not engaged in any advertising campaigns or projects since college. Instead, he has been serving as the lead campus recruitment manager, including overseeing the firm’s internship program. Because Jose lacks knowledge on the current trends in advertising, and he does not have time to necessarily get up to speed, he fears he might ruin the advertisement and create a bad name for the company. Considering the major reasons that employees resist change, Jose is seemingly resisting this change due to the prospect of having to learn something new (or having to relearn something). This situation illustrates fear of loss.
