This week we are covering macromolecules (carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids), the structure and function of cells, including cellular transport mechanisms.
Find a news article from Science Daily (or another credible news source) that describes a recent research study that relates to something you found interesting in this week’s readings. The article should be less than 3 years old and not already discussed by another student.
Include the following in your main response:
Formulate a likely hypothesis for this research study (it may not be specifically stated in the article)
In 1-2 sentences, summarize in your own words the most important conclusion from the research study.
Describe how this research study relates to this week’s BIOL 103 course topics. Use at least one in-text citation to one of this week’s assigned textbook chapters.
Finally, discuss at least one broader implication of this research that was not described in the article. In other words, how do you believe these research findings may impact society, the environment, health, or the world in a positive and/or negative way? Be specific.
Use the name of the Science Daily article as the title of your post.
Use in-text citations, and include references in APA format to the chosen Science Daily article, the textbook, and all other resources used to prepare your response.
Reply to at least two other classmates’ posts.
Ask a question about the study described and discuss an alternative impact or implication of the findings than the one described by your classmate. Be specific and include enough information so that your classmates can directly understand the link you are making. Cite all sources used in APA format.
