I, Rokaia Alkanaani, have completed this assignment without any help nor cheating of any sort. I understand that there will be a penalty if I disobey the academic integrity policy at HFC, and with this understanding, I abided by the rules and I'm proud of my work. All the work provided in the assignment was done by me and me alone.

I believe that the best piece of information in chapter 8 of the textbook is on page 227 of the textbook. While estrogens and testosterone are in both men and women, women produce mainly estrogens, and cause women's body shapes to change such as the widening of hips, uterus, and breasts. Men produce mainly testosterone which cause the enlargement of the male's penis, and causes the growth of body hair. These two are the best pieces of information because they play a huge role in differentiating males and females.

The best piece of information in chapter 9 of the textbook is on page 252. The textbook talks about how much a person's mental can grow from the age of 10-16; the reason for this occurring is due to Piaget's formal operations stage. Piaget's formal operations stage allows adolescents to be able to think logically, and I believe that this is the most important piece of information because humans need to be able to have the formal operations stage in order to do a lot of things as we get older such as work a job, or think logically in certain situations.

I agree with both my results and believe that they are accurate because I like to be conventional as well as social. What I learned by taking these two quizzes are that I am more social than I thought I was, and what I can do with my results is use them to prove that I am actually a good person for a business role, and not a good role for the medical field which is what my parents believe. My results connect with chapter 10 on page 281 because chapter 10 talks about how as we grow, we have to start taking control over our own lives, and I believe that I should do this by using my results to prove to my parents that I can be more than just a STEM major.

The career path that I am pursuing is opening up a food business. The source that I have included above mainly talks about how to start up a at home food business, and talks about what struggles come with it, and how to go on with the business. The job entails buying a bunch of materials, and marketing the food online in order to get people interested in my sales. there are no education requirements, but it is still a job where someone has to have enough knowledge about. The pay scale varies based on how good the marketing is, and something else I learned about my career path is that Michigan's laws allow me to distribute food from home.

Two things I enjoyed learning about is Erikson’s Psychosocial Stages, and Piaget's stages both found on page 20-21. I enjoyed learning about Erikson’s Psychosocial Stages specifically because of the identity versus role confusion because it accurately explains high school and college student's emotions. I also enjoyed learning about Piaget's stages because the concept of a person's mental changing so rapidly is amazing to me. A person at the age of 9 thinks completely differently than a person at the age of 13.

I believe that emerging adulthood is the ideal stage. Emerging adulthood is the age where everyone is grasping an idea of what they want to do in the future. Emerging adulthood is also the age where people have enough knowledge to start doing extravagant things in their lives. The textbook claims that emerging adulthood is the age where people start exploring the world on page 6, and I believe that what the textbook means by that is that we start to become free. The age of emerging adulthood is much more different than the other ages due to having more freedom in the world, and experiencing certain things for the first time.

I enjoyed that the course gave a lot of extra credit, but I believe that you could have assigned way less assignments. I also didn't like the fact that there were a ton of big assignments given towards the last week, especially because this isn't my only course, but it felt like I had to put my main attention on this class the whole semester. I liked how we were able to use achieve through the whole semester, but I disliked how little time we were given on the exams. I liked how easy the assignments were to understand on achieve, and overall the class was good, but I was always stressed due to the amount of assignments given.
