Gavin Garry EC 361 Section 1 Short Writing Assignment #4 Heintzelman Question: Should we allow drilling in the Alaskan National Wildlife Refuge? There are many things one needs to consider when determining the answer to this complex question. Things such as the actual amount of oil in the land matter a great deal in finding wether or not drilling is a viable source for oil.

culture they are raised in. Sadly, when people enter a new culture, they may feel like a fish out of water because everything (weather, landscape, language, food, dress, social roles, values, customs and communication) becomes totally different, just as Garry Engkent said in “Chicken for Christmas”: “mother questioned what Christmas is”.

When I was assigned to go to the art gallery I was excited to see the art and be and try to become more familiar with art, with that…

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid, which is a subunit in protein molecules and acts as precursor of serotonin synthesis. (Nerissa L. Soh, Garry Walter, 2011) Serotonin is important in our body because it helps to regulate mood and anxiety. (Glenda Lindseth, Brian Helland, Julie Caspers, 2015) Therefore, low levels of serotonin in brain may lead to anxiety and depression. Since tryptophan cannot be synthesized by our body, thus we need to obtain tryptophan through our daily diet. Even though…
