PART 1 (13 pts): Read the New York Times article on RNA world posted on Blackboard (External Links) and then construct a concept map by using each of the terms below. Use boxes and arrows typical of concept mapping and be creative: for instance, you may used branched arrows and/or add another concept or two for better linking. You can earn up to 3 extra credit points if you add additional concepts/terms accurately (at least two of them would have to be something we’ve learned in class). As always, remember that the linking words must contain a verb for full credit and that your concepts are linked into nice, readable sentences. I suggest you create your drafts elsewhere and then draw the final map on the back of this sheet, or you may use a separate sheet and staple it with this one. The map may be hand-crafted or created in PowerPoint, whichever is easier for you. Points will be taken off for messy and/or illegible work.

Publicity is free, but it often comes at the expense of a costly promotion. Ads are classified as promotional, institutional, and combination. Each serves a different purpose for the retailer. This week you will research and discuss promotions and their importance to retailers.

Keep track of where you get your information from while you are researching and be sure to use MLA format for citing sources.
