Question 1 (40pts)

List the Importance Value for Each Species (round to the hundredth place).

Species McCarty Woods Bartram-Carr Woods

Acer rubrum

Carya glabra

Celtis laevigata

Cinnamomum camphora

Liquidambar styraciflua

Pinus taeda

Question 2 (10pts)

Why would we hypothesize that the stand structure in these two urban forests would be similar?

Question 3 (10pts)

What influences or factors could make the stand structure in these two urban forests different?

Question 4 (10pts)

Using the comparison of Importance Values that you calculated for these woods, in a qualitative manner, should we accept or reject our hypothesis? Please explain.

Question 5 (10pts)

Does the concept of the Importance Value accurately capture differences or similarities in stand structure between the two urban forests? What does it tell us?

Question 6 (10pts)

What do you consider the limitations to this study? Are these major or minor limitations?

Question 7 (10pts)

Considering the experimental design, how could you improve this study?

for question 1 we are listing the importance value for each specie on both areas McCarty Woods and Bartram-Carr Woods. The question kind of clung them together.

Sample Solution

The men who launched the torpedo are no more guilty than the foul brain that conceived the deliberate slaughter of helpless, wounded men. But, to the Hun, it is a perfect day when a hundred babies have been bayoneted, a hospital bombed, and a few helpless wounded men drowned. The Huns who drop bombs on hospitals, murder women and children, sink hospital ships across the ocean and the Huns to peddle lies and sedition in this country are of the same Prussian breed.

Many media outlets labeled German-Americans as a threat to European civilization and the American values of peace, democracy, and liberty. The actions of German troops were often exaggerated so that they were portrayed as aggressive, materialistic, savage and uncivilized. Many articles during this time period targeted the emotions of the mass population, for many articles––including this article–– entailed the killings of women, children, and hospitals. This quote reveals the pathos used to sway the general population into fostering negative emotions towards the Germans.

On July 15, 1918 the Anaconda Standard reported recent changes regarding Anti-German sentiment. This article talks of the change of the name “sauerkraut” to “liberty cabbage” due to its German connection. They wrote:

When its previous alias is overlooked or not recollected, the combination of cabbage and sourness is relished and served as a great American dish called “liberty cabbage.” It is only when the name sauerkraut is remembered that the dish is shunned and banished from the tables of the patriotic and quasi-patriotic.
