Human Sexuality

Review the specific chapter in the book and answer the associated questions.  After reading the corresponding chapter, write a one page, double-spaced response for each set of questions below. Each of the questions much be responded to in order to receive credit, it is not a menu of choices.  Use a new paragraph for the answer to each question, but DO NOT retype the question, as this will waste space for your response.  The content of the essays should be fact, not opinion unless you are specifically asked. There is not always an answer instead the question might have you summarize the information of the chapter including tables and graphs.  You are expected to reference/paraphrase material from the text, where applicable, without directly quoting it.
