Power Base and Leadership

The British historian of the late 19th century, (Acton, 1887) said that "power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely," suggesting that a person's sense of morality lessens as his or her power increases. Do you agree? Considering this idea, is it ethical for leaders to try to increase their power? Is all power the same or are there different power bases and different corresponding influence techniques? How does the use of power impact the leader-follower relationship?

Choose an organization and describe the power base(s) in that organization. What types of techniques do leaders use to influence team behavior in that organization? How does the leaders' approach affect team relationships? As a leader, how would you use power in your relationships with team members, and why?

QUESTION 3:

Why had Dr. Hawas resisted DNA anaylsis of royal mummies priorto this study?

He was afraid of envoking a curse by disturbing the mummies

The embalming process was believed to make it impossible tocollect DNA.

The possibility of obtaining workable DNA samples withoutcontamination was just too great to justify disturbing themummies.

The mummies would have to be completely destroyed to collect theDNA.

QUESTION 4:

Why did the scientists collect the samples from deep inside thebones of the mummies?

Bones are the only tissue that remained to sample.

To avoid contamination from the priests and archeologists thathad handled the mummies, as well as the researchers themselves

QUESTION 5:

The DNA was easily extracted from the samples collected from themummies. TRUE OR FALSE

QUESTION 6:

DNA from the ______ chromosome was used to determine thatAmenhotep III, the KV55 mummy and Tutankhamun were related. Myanswer was the Y chromosome.

the answers provided to choose from were: 1, 21, X, Y

QUESTION 13:

Genetic overlap resulting in congenital defects is one possiblereason for the almost univerasal taboo against incest. What is thepercentage of genetic overlap between full siblings?

6.25%
12.5%

25%
50%

QUESTION 14:

Royal incest has been documented in ancient Egypt, Inca Peru,the Hawaiians and Thailand. Despite the obvious drawbacks ofcondensing genetic lines, which answer was not a reason thatroyalty ignored the taboo and practiced brother/sister andcousin/cousin pairings
