For this assignment, I will have to write a 3 1/2 page argumentative essay based upon one of the topics listed below. My essay must include a contestable thesis, followed by substantive paragraphs that originate with focused, idea-driven topic sentences. To remind myself how to arrive at a thesis statement (observation & abstraction) present that claim (CSC), and organize your paragraphs (TAXES) please refer to our readings from Techniques of College Writing.
The paper should also include:
A minimum of one critical source; this source can be taken from our textbook The Longman Anthology of Detective Fiction (not a story but a critical piece) or one of the pdfs. we’ve read thus far this semester.
A minimum of 3 1/2 pages, Times New Roman 12 pt. font and a heading on page one. Please see OWL at Perdue’s website for formatting instructions.
Quotations from your texts, both the story (or film) and your critical piece: a minimum of two per paragraph, fully analyzed and connected to your thesis.
MLA format throughout: this includes proper quotation integration and a Works Cited page.
A personal reflection of at least one to two paragraphs (instructions below the topics)
Texts/Authors you may choose to write about (no more than one): This is the Author I chose Paretsky
Topic One:
At the end of most mysteries and/or suspense fiction that includes a femme fatale, these characters are under arrest, in jail, exiled, or dead. Why? Does this trope of the vanquished femme fatale disclose anything about both power and powerlessness in her character? Formulate a thesis about your interpretation of the role of the femme fatale in American culture and in your selected texts specifically. Are there any cultural anxieties, perhaps, that reflect our social codes or mores that animate the femme fatale’s actions and demise?

BIO260 Principles of Genecs Applicaon Acvity 3: DNA Repair This acvity can be completed individually or in small groups of two to three people. PURPOSE The purpose of this acvity is to simulate the process that a scienst in a research lab would use to develop an assay to use CRISPR/Cas9 for gene eding. This would be useful to repair a genec mutaon involved in the development of a genec disorder or cancer. Addionally, you will explore the bioethical implicaons of using CRISPR/Cas9 for genec engineering. Skills TASK You will use the following skills to help you design your crRNA: – Retrieving and analyzing DNA sequences for gene targets – Idenfying PAM sites in a DNA sequence – Communicang your raonal for selecng a specific PAM to design your crRNA Knowledge You will gain the following knowledge: – Familiarity with retrieving DNA sequences from NCBI – Understanding the design of crRNA based, including the idenficaon of PAM sites – Understanding the bioethical issues associated with CRISPR/Cas9 gene eding You are sciensts interested in using CRISPR/Cas9 to edit a mutaon in a gene that is associated with a genec disorder. You will have to retrieve the DNA sequence for your gene, and idenfy a target region. Based on the DNA sequence of your target region, you will Idenfy PAM sites and select one for the design of crRNA. CRITERIA FOR SUCCESS CRISPR/Cas9 can be used to edit DNA sequences, by specifically cung at a target PAM site and providing the cell with a DNA template containing the desired fix. Your crRNA should target you genec region of interest and it should sasfy all of the requirements for crRNA, including its length, proximity to a PAM site, specificity to the desired region, and limited off target effects.

260 Principles of Genecs Applicaon Acvity 3: DNA repair Acvity to design crRNA 1. Retrieve the DNA sequence for the target gene from NCBI using this link: hps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov 2. Idenfy a region in your gene to target that is 200 – 250 bp in length. You may choose to idenfy a specific mutaon with that region that you are interested in eding. If so, indicate the site of the mutaon in the DNA sequence. 3. Idenfy all of the PAM sites within the DNA sequence, and highlight the one that you plan to use to design your crRNA. 4. Write out the DNA sequence of your crRNA. 5. Idenfy the CRISPR/Cas9 cut site based on crRNA. Quesons 1. Describe two possible advantages of using HDR over using NHEJ with CRISPR/ Cas9. 2. Is it possible that your crRNA targets genec regions other than the region that it was designed to target? 3. Write three different ideas you have about why CRISPR-Cas9 technology could be useful for gene eding. 4. Would you recommend CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene eding be used in to fix germ line mutaons or somac mutaons? 5. Should CRISPR/Cas9 be used to edit embryos, even though the genec changes and any errors it produced, will be passed on to their biological children?
