At times, the elasticity and inelasticity of demand of a product can be a personal decision. What might be an important “must have†product for one person may not have the same importance for another person.Therefore, the demand of some products may be elastic for one person and inelastic for another.
Discuss two products that you purchase on a regular basis. Your demand for one product should be elastic, and the demand for the other product should be inelastic. In an entry of at least one paragraph, describe each product and why your demand for each is elastic or inelastic.
Below is a discussion post that I must reply to. The reply must be at least 6 sentences that can consist of just your thoughts on the post or additions to the post. Nothing extravegant.
Ethics mean what is morally right or wrong, what makes sense or doesn’t make sense. It is the aid of reasoning, a thought of some sort of correction. Philosophers give us a method for solving ethical problems by showing us or giving us different scenarios or problems to see how we will reply and or react to a situation. Philosophy gives these methods by showing us that we make moral and ethical thinking in our every day lives us knowing it. I think an understanding of logic and critical thinking is essential for the ethics because when “doing” ethics you have to keep an open mind and be able to understand all reasoning. I believe you have to be a critical thinker in ethics to read outside the lines and even read deeper for better understanding. We can object true answer when it comes to ethics by providing facts. Having proof of what is true or not even if a person wants to agree with you are not.
When looking for information about a particular issue, how often do you try to resist biases toward your own point of view? This assignment asks you to engage in this aspect of critical thinking by playing the “Believing Game.” The Believing Game is about making the effort to “believe” – or at least consider – the reasons for an opposing view on an issue.
The assignment is divided into two (2) parts.
In Part I of the assignment (due Week 2), you will first read a book excerpt about critical thinking processes: “The Believing Game and How to Make Conflicting Opinions More Fruitful” at http://www.procon.org/sourcefiles/believinggame.pdf. Next, you will review the Procon.org Website in order to gather information. Then, you will engage in prewriting to examine your thoughts.
Note: In Part II of the assignment (due Week 4), you will write an essay geared towards synthesizing your ideas.
Part I – Prewriting: Follow the instructions below for this prewriting activity. Use complete sentences and adhere to standard rules of English grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and spelling.

Significant Episodes in which an Environmental Hazard Caused Adverse Health Outcomes in Humans.
The three major and historical events that I have identified are the deadly gas release of Bhopal, nuclear disaster at Chernobyl and the Hiroshima bombing.
Which environmental hazard, such as the pollutant or pollutants, caused the most adverse health outcomes and why?
The deadly gas release of Bhopal, India was made up of methyl isocyanate (MIC) gases that were expelled into the atmosphere from a factory developing pesticides, which killed 3,800 people. There were several explosions at the Chernobyl nuclear reactor that caused the radiation to leak out. The nuclear disaster in Chernobyl had immediate effects on its victims as well as long term. The bombing at Hiroshima caused radiation to be emitted and caused radiation to be absorbed into people, crops, animals, etc.
What are the various adverse health outcomes that occurred as a result of exposure to the environmental hazard?
The release of this hazardous gas from the Bhopal incident caused many people to pass away from lung failure and those that were able to live out the first couple of days had severe respiratory complications as well as other life threatening symptoms. The long term effects from inhaling these gas included brain related issues such as headaches, as well as effects on the major systems of the body.
The nuclear disaster at Chernobyl had devastating effects on the people that lived in Chernobyl as well as the outlining countries such as Russia and the Ukraine. The radiation expelled into the air and caused many people to have radiation poisoning, develop cancers especially thyroid as well other cancers.
The bombing at Hiroshima showed effects on its victims such as radiation sickness and radiation burns on the skin.
What are the steps that were taken to prevent the adverse health outcomes from occurring? Should there be any other step that was necessary to prevent the adverse health outcome? Explain.
Suggest the ways to prevent future occurrences of such episodes.
Is there an association between environmental hazards and adverse health outcomes in humans? Why or why not?
Analyze and explain the exposure-disease relationship for each of these three events.
What do you think is the impact of these events on the communities where they occurred?
You read in Chapter 13 that it is vital to reduce your credit card balances and other consumer credit before beginning an investment program. You also need to start an emergency fund in case of immediate need. Why do financial advisers make such recommendations? Why should you reduce spending on credit before investing? Why shouldn’t you carry large consumer debt and invest at the same time? On the surface, these questions may sound silly but there are sound reasons for asking them. Post your position in the discussion board in at least 200 words incorporating your rationale with supportive references.
