How does the empowerment of women impact public health?
There has been a strong correlation made between the empowerment of women and lowered birth rates. This also includes lower maternal and infant death rates. The more educated a woman is, and the more responsibilities she has outside of the home, the fewer children she will have. In many places childbirth is still incredibly dangerous for both mother and child, by limiting the number of children they have, the less times they have to put themselves and their babies into that danger.

Why it it important to stick to one tense in your writing?
One of the easiest mistakes people make in their writing, is switching between multiple tenses. For example, you might start a paragraph using "was" and then in the next sentence, start using "is". It causes confusion for the reader, did this happen in the past, or is it still happening? It can also cause papers to look less professional. Correcting your tenses, might be the little thing that pushes your paper up from a B to an A!

What is the difference between evolution and natural selection?
Natural selection and evolution are similar to all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares. Evolution is the change that an organism will go through over time. Natural selection is just one of the ways that evolution takes place. In natural selection an organism survives and reproduces because they have a trait that makes them more successful.
