Investigating the gut microbiome of Mountain Gorilla (Gorilla Beringei) Beringei(2022-12-22) Ward, Zoe; Gomez, Andres; Mthewtha, NonsikeleloThe gastrointestinal microbiomes of different primate species can always be distinguished from one another, a pattern mainly driven by each species' unique diet and environment. A potential adaption in response to this unique environment that has been poorly explored in mountain gorillas is their gut microbiome – the community of bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses residing in their gastrointestinal tract, which play important roles in health and nutrition. Mountain gorillas have evolved specific adaptations to fit an energetically restricted diet, mainly composed of leaves, pith, herbs bark, and unripe fruit. Mammals do not have specialized digestive enzymes to break down fibrous plants, their gut microbiome provides the only way to recover otherwise unavailable metabolic energy in these compounds through their breaking down, fermentation, and production of short-chain fatty acids. Objective: Investigated if the gut microbiome of mountain gorillas reflects adaptations to specialized diets in extreme environments and living in social groups by characterizing their fecal bacterial communities.Item At A Glance: Minnesota Traveler Profile, Metro Region(University of Minnesota Tourism Center, 2007)Results from 1,027 travelers' questionnaires collected within the Metro Region, June 2005 through May 2006.Item At a Glance: Trends in MN Tourism Attitudes & Travel Spending(University of Minnesota Tourism Center, 2015) University of Minnesota.

First, this poster provides quotes from professional technical communicators suggesting that the pricing of technical communication tools can influence the way technical communication teams work. Second, it shows the methods and results of a research study that evaluated the pricing scheme of 30 commonly used technical communication tools. Models demonstrate how the pricing strategies, versioning strategies, and onboarding strategies used by the proprietors of technical communication tools can influence the way teams use those tools. This research indicates the strategies used to price software tools can affect usability, as minor differences at every level of a company’s pricing scheme can influence user behavior.
