Primate evolution

Primates are a relatively new species and first appeared in the fossil record nearly 55 million years ago. They may have originated as far back as the cretaceous period. Their fossils were observed in North America, Asia, and Europe. Long before the first monkeys and their prosimian relatives developed, most animal species thrived and died. The first primates did not exist until about 50-55 million years ago, even though the planet is 4.54 billion years old and the first life goes back at least 3.5 billion years. Dinosaurs had been extinct for 10 to 15 million years when this happened.

SEMMELWEIS’ CASE STUDY An example of the scientific method in action can be found in the work of Ignaz Semmelweis, a Hungarian doctor who lived in the early-to-mid-1800s. He was appointed to a ward in Vienna’s most modern hospital, the Allegemeine Krankenhaus. He noticed that in his ward, patients were dying at a rate that far exceeded that of the other wards, even the wards with much sicker patients. Semmelweis observed the situation for several weeks, trying to figure out what was different about his ward as compared to all others in the hospital. He finally determined that the only noticeable difference was that his ward was the first one that the doctors and medical students visited after they performed autopsies on the dead. Based on his observations, Semmelweis hypothesized that the doctors were carrying something deadly from the corpses upon which the autopsies were being performed to the patients in his ward. In other words, Dr. Semmelweis exercised the first step…

This is a product label for a germicide. HIV-1, HBV, and HCV are all viruses that can be found in the blood. Why does the label say you have to thoroughly clean blood and body fluids from surfaces before applying he gemicide? A The germicide probably smells really bad if it combines with blood or other body fluids. B If blood is present and you apply a germicide, you will have too much fluid to safely mop up. C Blood and other body fluids can interact with the germicide and prevent the germicide from killing pathogens.

Look at how different organisations are involved in limiting the spread of COVID-19. Choose a local, national and international organisation and evaluate the measures it has put into place to protect the spread of the disease. The Conservative government is an obvious one to do for national organisation. Compare what we have done compared to other countries to evaluate its effectiveness. As an international organisation I would probably do WHO and I will leave you to come up with your own local organisation.
