Question #2: What is an internal classification system and what function does it play in a prison? An internal classification system is instruments used to assign inmates to housing or program after they are placed in a particular prison. This does not apply to all inmates because some have medical conditions and sometimes there is not enough availability in that housing location. Herbert Quay came up with the internal classification system used in most prisons in the Adult Internal Management System (AIMS). This system analysis life history records and a correctional adjustment checklist of each person who enters the jail system. It identifies everything from an inmate that might be violent and aggressive to jobs they previously were assigned…

Behavior Although mostly terrestrial, Didelphis virginiana also uses arboreal and aquatic locomotion. On the ground, its gait resembles that of primitive mammals [6], which is unsurprising given that opossum-like mammals first appeared over 65 million years ago around the time when the dinosaurs were going extinct [12]. Though the opossum’s arboreal locomotion is aided by the adaptations mentioned earlier, it is still relatively slow and clumsy. However, it is a strong – if slow – swimmer, and…
