...Assignment 3.1: Determining Causes and Effects – Draft Version Name: Melvin G. Abramson Instructor: Shannon O’Stricker ENG-115 – English Composition Date: February 25th, 2013 Many automotive manufacturers favor importing the majority of their materials from international markets rather than via the local materials. The reason in the wake of this decision is that manufacturers are partial by some causes to exploit foreign importation which of course has some effects. The cause and effect characteristic establishes the action one takes in embarking on an issue. There is a reason for doing something which is escorted with some effects that is either optimistic or pessimistic. The pronouncement to import or use local materials is determined by the causes and effects related to it. This work explains the causes and effects of an automotive manufacturer importing from the international markets. It effects the decision of people and the economy. [pic] The demand to produce high quality and exceptional automotive materials is the major cause for importing from foreign markets. With lofty competition in the automotive industry, manufacturers exercise all means to guarantee that they fabricate the unsurpassed automotive products in the market. When the local materials will not allow them to produce high quality products, the next alternative is importing from international markets where they are readily obtainable (Hinkelman...

WHY IS LAKE HURON SO POLLUTED? During the 18th and 19th centuries, industries and individuals often used rivers and lakes as garbage cans. Industrial effluent, raw sewage and animal carcasses would often be dumped into Lake Huron, without much thought of contamination. The major cause of the pollution in Lake Huron seems to be nonpoint source pollution. Nonpoint source pollution is another term for polluted runoff (Water Pollution in the Great Lakes). In the 20th century, this practice of dumping waste into the lake started changing as people became aware of the importance of clean water to their health. As more people and industries moved into the great lakes region, the more the rivers and lakes became polluted. Pollutants enter the great lakes in many different ways, but the entryways of pollutants are point source, nonpoint source,...

...Bertie Barfield ENG/115 Determining the Causes and Effects of Water Pollution in Lake Huron The Great Lakes, Lake Erie, Michigan, Huron, Superior, and Ontario, are our largest freshwater system. Lake Huron, like the other Great Lakes contain many species of wildlife, and is in danger of being polluted. This pollution is harmful to fish, wildlife stocks, and to the humans of this region. At the University of Mississippi, Latham, A., Wright, E., & Tsang, A. [n.d.] produced a study that focused specifically on Pollution's Effects on the Great Lakes Ecosystem. Determining the causes and effects of water pollution in Lake Huron may facilitate new ideas and solutions for cleaning up our waterways’ and improving public health. Although there are many causes of Lake Huron’s pollution, most fall under three categories: 1) Point-source pollution; 2) Nonpoint-source pollution; and 3) Air pollution. Point-source pollution refers to mercury, fecal matter, and sewage, from treatment plants or industrial facilities, being dumped into the Lake. Nonpoint-source pollution refers to runoff of polluted water from crops or lawns which contain contaminants. These contaminants may be oil, sand, salt from roadways, agricultural chemicals, and nutrients and toxic materials from urban or rural areas (The Lake Huron Centre for Coastal Conservation, 1998-2012). Additionally, air pollution is also a major concern. According to the Lake Huron Centre for Coastal Conservation, “…the...

They can cause a harmful ripple effect transferred from prey to predators including humans. There is also the possibility of a major negative impact on the economy if affected. A majority of pollution found in Great Lakes such as Lake Huron has been proven by many sources to be extremely harmful to the habitants of the water, species who use the water, and the water itself. These findings eventually provided enough evidence for an implementation of a legal pollution limit that is considered to be a tolerance level. To demonstrate the harmful reality of pollution in Lake Huron, a group of graduate students from Michigan State University studied the effects of pollution by observing the lake trout. According to an excerpt of their school thesis, they intended to “…analyze the tissue concentrations in lake trout…over a period of several years.” (Michigan State University, Enivroment 110). The study of this lake trout provided substantial evidence that more contaminated areas of the lake had a higher effect on the trout. The water pollution...

...Rube Goldberg, a cartoonist, engineer, and inventor, gave us cartoons of many machines that illustrate the complexity of cause/effect events in the real world yet are still simple. His machines and cartoons, known as Rube Goldbergs, often contain complicated steps that a machine will go through to do something very simple. An example of this is the “self-operating napkin” (Goldberg): [pic][pic] In this Rube Goldberg, one can see that as he lifts the spoon to eat (A), it pulls the cord (B) that flicks the spoon (C). The spoon tosses the bread (D) that the bird (E) goes for and so the stuff on the other side of the balance (F) falls into the bucket (G). As the bucket drops (H), it pulls the string (I) that opens the box that lets out the fire (J). The fire ignites the fire-cracker (K), which pulls the scythe (L). The scythe cuts the cord (M), which lets the napkin move according to the ticking of the clock and wipes the man’s mouth. The plethora of events and cause/effect connections in this description seem complex compared to the simple act of picking up the napkin oneself and doing it. As complex as these events seem, they are still simple compared to any real set of events in the world. In this Rube Goldberg, the causal chain is that A causes B which causes C and so on. This is a linear chain of events where A and only A causes B which only causes C and so on. Even though the explanation of what happens in this Rube Goldberg is complex, the reality of the chain of causal...

...Hume on Custom and Habit In Hume’s Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, he claims that it is not reason, but experience which guides and is the basis for most of our beliefs, or matters of fact. What the cause is for this, is the question he ultimately tackles in order to gain an understanding of the human nature of the connection of experience and existence. When discussing how our mind forms connections between various thought, he states that “method and regularity” act to enforce a regular chain of ideas that also serve to relate to memory and imagination (p.14). When this regular chain is broken in upon by some irregular thought, it is quickly noticed. From this, he gathers that because of the regularity that occurs in the thought process, a universal principle exists to bring together ideas in such a comprehensible fashion. These principles of association, as he calls them, are Resemblance, Contiguity, and Cause and Effect. To prove that these three principles hold to connect all possible forms of ideas, he suggests that if all situations are rendered to as general a form as possible, principles of association will apply alone or in some combination in all cases. For our purposes, cause and effect is the most relevant principle which may cast light on Hume’s statement that “Custom, then, is the great guide of human life. It is that principle alone, which renders our experience useful to us,” (p.29). Before entertaining the suggestion that customs are in fact an important...

These blooms have been known to cause many problems the world over. These HABs can have adverse effects on the society by economic and health risks. Many researches believe that the occurrence of HABs is growing throughout the world. Many researches are currently being undertaken on these creatures in order to find out more about their distribution, environmental impacts, and their effects on human health, but these researches have been greatly limited by critical gaps in the knowledge of the physiological, behavioral, and genetic characteristics of these things( Ibid). Normal algae are a critical part of the ecosystem. “Algae, like land plants, capture the sun’s energy and support the food web that leads to fish and shellfish. They occur in a size range from tiny microscopic cells floating in the water column (phytoplankton) to large mats of visible “macroalgae” that grow on bottom sediments”http://www.dnr.state.md.us/bay/hab/ (Accessed March 26, 2006) . These algae can become harmful if their population increases or if they start to produce some toxin. Their large populations can cause environmental problems, which include the blocking of the sunlight to the underwater...

...CAUSES AND EFFECTS Determining Causes and Effects Lila Thompson Rodney L. Baker ENG 115 English Composition May 22, 2016 CAUSES AND EFFECTS My research on determining the cause and effects of stress on college students is complied at the request of the President of Strayer University. The purpose of presenting this research paper to senior administration is to help students have a more positive college experience. College is a new and exciting time, but it can be overwhelming. Among all of the new experiences, learning, and growing opportunities available in college environment, many may lead to unhealthy levels of stress which hinder students’ abilities to socialize and to achieve their academic goals. Recognizing the source of stress is important in preventing it from becoming unmanageable or debilitating. There are several reasons why students are stressed out in college, therefore this research paper seeks to explain the major causes and effects of stress on college students, the economic effects of the cause, and the effects on people. What is Stress? Stress is the body’s reaction to a challenge. Though stress is often perceived as bad, it can actually be good in some respects. The right kind of stress can sharpen the mind and reflexes. It might be able to help the body perform, or help us escape a dangerous situation. Stress produces a physiological reaction in our body. Hormones are released, which result in physical manifestations of stress. These can include slowed...

...Inflation is not a random increase in the general price level. Inflation means there is a sustained increase in the price level. The main causes of inflation are either excess aggregate demand (economic growth too fast) or cost push factors (supply side factors) . Economists divide the causes into three main categories. 1. Cost-push Inflation: Cost-push inflation occurs when the price level is pushed up by increases in the costs of production. If firms face higher costs, they will usually raise their prices to maintain their profit margins. Higher production costs led to a decrease in aggregate supply and an increase in the overall price level because the equilibrium point moved. There are a number of reasons for an increase in costs. 1) One is wages increasing more than labour productivity. This will increase labour costs. As labour costs form the highest proportion of total costs in many firms, such a rise can have a significant impact on the price level. It will also not be a one-off increase. The initial rise in the price level is likely to cause workers to press for even higher wages, leading to a wage-price spiral. The sharp rise in the price of imported oil during the 1970s provides a typical example of cost-push inflation. Rising energy prices caused the cost of producing and transporting goods to rise. Higher production costs led to a decrease in aggregate supply and an increase in the overall price level because the equilibrium point moved 2) Another important...

...Assignment 3.1: Determining Causes and Effects – Revised Version Pacience Jordan February 16, 2016 Professor Roger Fontana English 115 Determining Causes and Effects – College Stress There are many different things that seem to cause stress on college students. College students do not seem to get a break from the workload. Even when they are not physically doing the work it still happens to be on their mind. Many college students have to battle with work, school, and even children at home. It may seem like it isn’t a lot to deal with but it can be very stressful. Increased Responsibility and Independence During college change is a very big factor in a freshman’s life. Deal with change for many people can be very difficult. For many people leaving home and going to college is a sign that they are now on their own. They are now adults and have to make decisions for themselves to better their future. Being faced with making very important decision that could affect the rest of your life can be stressful. Overachieving Other college students are stress out because simply because they are being pushed by their parents to be the best that they can be.
