Effects of coronavirus on Canadian macroeconomy A survey done by Deloitte, a global consultancy in macro economics and finance auditing company, revealed that the combination of global covid-19 pandemic and severe oil shock has driven the economy of Canada into recession. It has been difficult for foresters to assess the degree of economic decline because it is not clear when the containment will be lifted or time when the vaccine will be available. Policymakers appear to have put the economy on hold awaiting recession of the virus. Many business are shut down temporarily and some might never reopen. In addition, there is a significant drop in the prices of oil which is the highest contributor to the Gross Domestic Perc pita (GDP). At the time when the findings of the survey were put together, the economy had shrined to an average of 3.8% of the annual revenue. The economic indicators have shown that the decline would push to a further 5% with the second quarter registering a downward trend of 23% at the close, which is twice worse than the…

Principles governing human and animal behavior The desire to meet daily needs drives our behavior. The principle governing human and animal behavior may include the following: Emotions; it is an internal feeling that goes along with physical and behavioral changes.  Some emotions can be greater than others, while some are fierce than others. Examples of emotions include love, disgust, passion, sadness, anger, and pride. The sophistication of our emotions separates us from animals (Panksepp, 2005). There are four main emotions: James Lange theory, Cannon-bard theory, Facial-feedback theory, and Schachter’s two-factor theory. Motivation refers to a set of factors that initiate, direct, and sustain a behavior, usually towards a certain goal. There are three classifications of motivational theory: Psychosocial, biological, and biopsychosocial. Psychosocial incentive theory; our objectives activate us. Biological instinct theory: Genetic survival drives our behaviors. Drive reduction theory: An activated behavior happens to decrease physiological imbalances into a balanced state. Arousal theory: Creatures look for an optimal level of performance that escalates their performance. Biopsychosocial Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs: Has five classification of motivated behavior from the simplest to the…

Q1 In this particular situation, I would recommend the product to be produced in-house. This will have various benefits because it will ensure that the risks associated with an increase in currency are handled and the rising costs that the suppliers may set. When the firm has specialized and targets one supplier on investment, it would be very convenient. Outsourcing can only be beneficial when there is a failure when the burden is switched to the suppliers. In-house production can help the business attain higher profit levels because fewer costs are being incurred in manufacturing and distributing the product to the customers. In-house manufacturing can also help apply the right technology to a product, increasing the level of innovation and invention. Q2 Different countries have different cultures, which means that their consumption patterns affect the costs of operating business. Culture refers to the norms that a particular group of people views as right and acceptable by them. This means that they tend to have choices in demand and consumption rates. When, for example, they are not interested in consuming a…

Several factors contributed to NASA and Columbia disasters, one of them being assumptions that everything was perfect. The main guy said everything was fine; thus, the company did not believe they could fail at any point and focused on their mission. They were reluctant to consider the costs and deadlines because they focused on the primary mission. Also, overconfidence from the previous history of success made the company not to focus on what the engineers were doing. The management deviated from the known chain of command and used unusual methods to validate the progress of activities. The employees at NASA also spent time on multiple projects, thus could not provide quality. Focusing on many projects shifts attention and puts employees at the pressure to meet deadlines. Critical cultural makers are relying on previous organization’s success making people assume they will produce quality. Also, organizational barriers where there was a lack of a formal chain of command may have contributed to the failure. Perhaps some individuals realized the mistakes but did not open up because they were not among the top…

Physical evidence Physical evidence is usually used by forensics as a significant tool in criminal investigations; physical evidence is known for its standard and individualistic characteristic from a crime scene; you can collect a lot of evidence such as bullets casing fingerprints, spermatozoa blood hair, and fiber evidence for example, if the paint is found at a crime scene, then the paint chips are used for further analysis; it should be noted that during the collection of paint chips and paint, evidence should not be kept together, and they should be kept in clear plastic containers. Glass can also be collected from a crime scene as the physical evidence is essential to note that if a gunshot bullet impacts the glass, radial glass fragment is moved away from the point of impact, showing the point of bullet entry behind concentric lines circling the same point. Fibers can also be collected as key evidence as they can be identified using an electron microscope; one should note that when dealing with fibers, one should put them in a pillbox or folded paper…

Forensic odontology can be applied in today’s forensics in the identification of human remains. When a disaster strike and leaves a mass casualty in that it is hard to facial recognize people, forensic odontology can be used. Forensic odontology uses dental remains from people. It is associated with the comparison of dental records. Forensic odontology compares post postmortem dental features of a victim with a missing person dental records. Forensic odontology can be used in determining the age and sex of a person. First of all, it involves building a dental profile of a victim. Using a physical and radiographic examination of teeth and paradental structure, you can build a physical and radiographic examination of teeth and paradental structure to make a person physical practice. Computed tomography scanning 3d virtual modeling can also help dental profiling. High image resolution, database, a cast of teeth can help in identifying a person. Post postmortem records affect the accuracy and completeness of any dental comparison. If sufficient dental remains are still present, it is feasible to make a dental profile. Quality control is…

  Emotions and Motivations in Life Emotion is a complex state of feeling that come as a result of physical and physiological balances that influence thoughts and behavior. It is associated with phenomenon which include temperaments, personality, moods and motivations. Therefore, David G. Myers says that human emotions involves physiological arousal, expressive behaviour, and conscious expression. On the other hand motivation is a state of mind that display energy and enthusiasm which drives a person to work in a particular way to meet the desired goals. It is known to a force that pushes one to work in an extreme level and maintain focus even if the situation is not favorable. (Garske, & Arkes, 1982) Therefore it translate into a particular type of behavior, which may be conditioned or unconditioned. The behavior of humans and animals are governed by principles that are governed by theories that support why emotion and motivation exist. As a matter of fact the two aspects co-exist. The principals that govern human and animal behavior are favorable environment, incentives which are mainly external, internal motivation, willingness…

My expected social security benefit ranges from 100,597 dollars to 200,167 dollars per annum. The benefit increases annually at a 5% rate, which is the same rate as my income. To achieve my expected social benefit income, I will have to increase my savings to 20.7 % of my income, which is 10,558.51 dollars annually, which will increase as income increases. Question Two The results from the website show that I will live up to the age of 85 years. I prefer to retire at the age of 65, which…

Mollusca is the second largest phylum after Arthropoda. The members of this group are known as mulluscs or mullusks. The phylum is estimated to have more than eighty-five thousand species(). Most of the species live in water, and it is estimated that twenty-three percent of all marine species are mulluscs. It is segregated into seven classes, namely, Scaphopoda, Monoplacophora, Cephalopoda, Gastropoda, Bivalvia, Polyplacophora, and Aplacophora. Examples of species in the phylum and their ecology Class Aplacophor has worm-like organisms that are mostly found in the benthic marine environment. Class Monoplacophora organisms have a cap-like shell that encloses their body. The shape of the shell varies from circular to ovate(). They include Neopilina galathaea Class Bivalvia members live in fresh and marine waters. They bury themselves in sea beds, attach themselves to hard places or lie on the seafloor. They include scallops and oysters. Class Gastropoda includes organisms such as snails and slugs. They are commonly found in gardens and marine conches. Effects of human activities on mulluscs Human activities have impacted on the numbers and reproduction of organisms in the…
