How are the processes different?

Since there are billions upon billions of possible processes, this question is not within the human ability to answer. If you specify which processes you are talking about, that will make it answerable.


Transcription and translation are the two processes necessary to change RNA to protein RNA to DNA DNA to RNA DNA to protein?

Transcription and translation are the two processes necessary to build a protein based upon genetic information within DNA. Transcription is the term used for the construction of a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule based on the DNA template. Translation refers to the processes of building a protein based upon the mRNA template.

What is one approach model to managing change that is not mentioned in the assigned readings?

An approach to managing change that was not mentioned in the readings for this unit is the Capability Maturity Model. The model consists of five steps that build upon one another. The steps are "evolutionary stages in which an organization manages its processes" (ValueBasedManagment, 2008). The five stages are as follows: 1. Initial (processes are chaotic, or actually few processes are defined....much like brainstorming) 2. Repeatable (basic processes are established and there is a level of discipline to stick to these processes) 3. Defined (all processes are defined, documented, standardized and integrated into each other) 4. Managed (processes are measured by collecting detailed data on the processes and their quality) 5. Optimizing (continuous process improvement is adopted and in place by quantitative feedback and from piloting new ideas ands technologies) This model paralles the models presented in the readings for unit 5; however, I think it is a bit more general than most models we learned about. This model could be applied to just about any organization OR individual. Reference: Capability Maturity Model (CMM). (March 2008).

Does the composition of a sedimentary rock depend upon the composition of the rocks and the living things its sediments came from?

It is true that the composition of a sedimentary rock depends upon the composition of the rocks and living things its sediments come from. Sedimentary rocks form through lithification.
