Developing Robot Brains
Scientists have been working on how to build robot brains that develop in the same way as human brains. In the past, scientists have tried to copy human brains exactly. The trouble is, there is still so much that scientists do not know about how human brains work. But a group of scientists at Michigan State University have developed a new plan. They are using nature as an example to follow for robots. We know that things change and adapt in nature. These scientists want to make robots that can change and adapt, too. The robots would learn to do tasks over time. The goal is to have robots with brains that develop like human brains do, over many years.One task this team of scientists worked on was to get robots to enter and exit a room. This action is easy for humans to complete, but not for robots. The scientists used a math equation to program the robots on this task. They created a program where the robots had to work on the task in connection with other robots. The robots watched each other and took on special roles for the task. This made them more successful. Then, the robot brains that worked the best on a task were the models used for future brains. This is very much like what happens in nature. A characteristic that works well for an animal gets passed on to its babies.Overall, this group of scientists thinks that following what happens in nature is the key to creating robots that can think like humans. The robot brains will start young, like humans. Robots will learn and explore for many years. Then they will develop higher intelligence and understanding. This is very much like how human brains develop!

Problem Solving with Peanuts and Sweet Potatoes
For years, farmers in Alabama grew cotton and nothing else. As a result, farmers had damaged fields that could no longer cultivate crops. The fields broke down from planting the same thing year after year. Then, in 1914, a pest called a boll weevil destroyed crops. The solution to this problem came from George Washington Carver, an African-American scientist and inventor. He discovered that the soil in Alabama grew peanuts and sweet potatoes well. Carver suggested that farmers grow peanuts and sweet potatoes to help the soil.
This plan worked. Farms began producing peanuts and sweet potatoes. However, not many people bought these foods. Farmers struggled to earn a living. Carver responded to this situation with more research. He wanted farmers to keep planting these crops. He experimented and made products from peanuts and sweet potatoes. Carver made 300 other things from peanuts, such as flour, milk, ink, and dye. He made about 100 products from sweet potatoes, including glue and ink. By 1940, peanuts became the second leading crop to make money in the South. Carver changed how cotton was grown and made many other crops important to the South.

I remember the first time we went to fly a kite. There was nothing like the thrill when my kite first leaped up out of Mother's hands into the air. Then she showed me how to pull and tug and guide the kite into the winds. And when the winds caught the kite, it shot upward. She told me then how the string in my hand was like a leash and the kite was like a hound that I had sent hunting, to flush a sunbeam or a stray phoenix out of the clouds.

“…The graves and remains of colonial settlers carry a message to the people of today. They remind us not to forget their lives and accomplishments—and not to lose our connection to the past. A broken tooth, a fractured bone, an arthritic back, and strands of brown hair—all of them whisper: ‘Rest with me for a moment or two. I have a story to tell.’ These tales, written only in bone, await those with the patience to find them.”

Walker develops the central idea that forensic anthropologists explore bones to tell stories of the past through anecdotes, play on words, and explanations of scientific processes beginning with the introduction and continuing throughout the entire text.
Sally M. Walker develops the central idea by showing anecdotes. According to Written in Bone it says, "such a stain was the first sign of the grave that contained the teenage boy whose bones were later examined by Doug Owsley." (page 20)"Doug Owsley carefully brushes off the lid of the smallest coffin, thought to hold the remains of a child. He examines the exterior before opening it the first time." (page 84) These pieces of evidence show how Sally M Walker uses anecdotes as a step for forensic anthropology. Walker uses anecdotes as a step for forensic anthropology.
Walker develops the central idea that forensic anthropologists explore bones to tell stories of the past through play on words. In Written in Bone, it says, "WRITTEN IN BONE. PUZZLE OF THE CHESAPEAKE." These pieces of evidence show another step of forensic anthropology in Written in Bone. Walker develops the central idea of forensic anthropology with the play on words in Written in Bone by using words that sound like others.
Walker develops the central idea that forensic anthropologists explore bones to tell stories of the past through scientific processes beginning with the introduction and continuing throughout the entire text. According to Written in Bone, it says, "They study buildings, man-made objects, called artifacts, created by people who lived in the past. These pieces of evidence show how the steps of forensic anthropology are shown in Written in Bone. Walker develops the central idea of forensic anthropology with scientific methods by showing steps of how things were done in Written in Bone.
Walker develops this central idea by showing forensic anthropology broken into steps which are anecdote, play on words, and the scientific method. Walker develops the central idea that forensic anthropologists explore bones to tell stories of the past through anecdotes, play on words, and explanations of scientific processes beginning with the introduction and continuing throughout the entire text. As you can see, the reader receives a complete picture of how these scientists gather information and draw conclusions to give a voice to people from the past.

Nanosensors in food packaging can measure pathogens and other contaminants in food, indicating if it is safe to eat.
Based on your knowledge of the prefix patho‒ (which means “disease”), and the context clues nearby, how would define the word pathogens?
something that causes illnesses
something that doesn’t cause illnesses
a life-threatening disease
something that is added to food
Answers
Answer:
something that causes illnesses
Explanation:
A pathologist is a doctor who deals with changes caused by diseases.
Based on the knowledge of the prefix patho (which means “disease”) and the context clues, pathogens can be defined as: a.) something that causes illness.
What is pathogen?Any organism or agent that can produce disease is called pathogen. Viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and worms are five main types pathogenic organisms .
Pathogens can easily be introduced into food from infected humans who handle the food without washing their hands properly. Pathogens are transferred from trace amounts of fecal matter present on hands to food.
Foodborne pathogens are biological agents that cause foodborne illness. A foodborne disease outbreak can be defined as occurrence of two or more cases of similar illness resulting from the ingestion of a food.
Sanitizing reduces the number of hazardous bacteria effectively from a surface to such levels that are considered safe by the Environmental Protection Agency. Sanitization after cleaning is a must. Cleaning can removes soils, but it does not kill germs and the best way to ensure that all germs get removed is by using a food grade sanitizer.

Read the following details. To open a savings account at North Bank, a customer must deposit at least $100 into the account. To open a checking account at North Bank, a customer must deposit at least $500 into the account. Gervais opened a savings account at North Bank, but not a checking account. Which conclusion can be logically drawn based on these details? Gervais does not have $50. Gervais has at least $100. Gervais has banked at North Bank before. Gervais does not need a checking account.
