Answer the questions as completely as possible. Although the minimum length for any single response is 4 paragraphs for the 20-point questions and 3 paragraphs for the 10-point questions, you should write as much as is necessary to answer each question adequately. Points will be deducted from responses that are too brief. Write your answers in paragraph form, using complete sentences.
You may consult your notes and the readings in formulating your responses. Just be sure to put everything into your own words. Upload your completed exam directly to Canvas.
