Industrialized Society Shame Eric Mackey HUM200 Argosy University (M5A1) An Inductive Value Based, Fact Supported Argument Counter-argument I agree with Singer that education can assist with proper understanding of world poverty. However, this is not the root cause of poverty, other factors such as Society itself and the human factor play a much larger role. Industrialized societal beliefs support inequality throughout human history. Portions of Article Engagement The articles Title ?America?s Shame, The Chronicle of Higher Education.? The student movement of the 1960?s Reasons why Americans are callous toward world poverty The Title Choice Peter Singer is a controvarsal writer whom uses Title structure to cause reader awareness.

Patrick Sayers 12/5/12 Period 9 My hypothesis is correct. My hypothesis is when you exercise; your pulse rate will go up. Exercise causes your heart to work harder to deliver more blood to energy-hungry muscles, which increases your heart rate. When you feel someone's pulse or your own, you are feeling the pressure pulses created by the beating of the heart. The increased pulse rate increases your heart rate. Blood flows more vigorously through the body which leads to an increase in blood pressure. There is no pattern is the histogram because the pulse rate is random.

Name Period Chapter 1: Introduction: Themes in the Study of Life Begin your study of biology this year by reading Chapter 1. It will serve as a reminder about biological concepts that you may have learned in an earlier course and give you an overview of what you will study this year. In the overview, Figure 1.3 recalls many of the properties of life. Label the seven properties illustrated here, and give a different example of each. Concept 1.1 The themes of this book make connections across different areas of biology What are emergent properties? Give two examples. Life is organized on many scales. Figure 1.4 zooms you in from viewing Earth from space all the way to the level of molecules. As you study this figure, write in a brief definition of each level.

Social stratification is a characteristic of society (not individuals) and can persist over generations. Systems of Stratification Slavery is the most extreme system of social stratification and is based on the legal ownership of people. A caste system is a form of social stratification in which status is determined by one?s family history and background and cannot be changed.

Chapter 6 Deviance Defining Deviance Deviance is a behavior, trait, belief, or other characteristic that violates a norm and causes a negative reaction in a group. The definition of deviance varies widely across cultures, time, and situations. Deviance across Cultures It is important to remember that when sociologists use the term "deviant," they are making a social judgment, never a moral one. If a particular behavior is considered deviant, it means that it violates the values and norms or a particular group, not that it is inherently wrong. Much of the literature on deviance focuses on crime and how different cultures define very different behaviors as criminal or not and the vast differences seen in how crimes are punished. Theories of Deviance
