The assignment involves multiple tasks related to taxonomy, organism classification, and case analysis. First, you will analyze the phylogenetic relationships among three organisms using their classification classifications and justify which is least related. Then, describe how DNA sequencing has influenced organism classification. You will also consider steps to classify an unknown organism encountered while vacationing.
In Exercise 1, you will practice using a dichotomous key to identify organisms based on their traits and interpret the options' structure within the key. Exercise 2 involves classifying different organisms based on their characteristics, such as kingdom, domain, and cellular features, and creating a flow chart to organize these classifications. You will evaluate whether this sequence correctly categorizes each organism and suggest additional questions to refine the classification process.
In the course project, you will research a legal case from the course chapters, thoroughly analyze its parties, facts, procedures, issues, holdings, reasoning, and conclusions, and incorporate outside research for added depth. This analysis should be presented as a comprehensive APA-formatted paper of 1,500–2,500 words, demonstrating insight, reasoning, and research. Ensure clarity, organization, proper citation of sources, and adherence to formatting guidelines, including a title page and references.
Finally, you will reflect on contract law principles exemplified in case law such as the Montgomery v. English case which discusses the mirror image rule, and the Page v. Gulf Coast Motors case which involves the Statute of Frauds and oral guaranty agreements. You should analyze legal principles, ethical considerations, and business implications, using cited case law and scholarly resources to support your discussion.
