Many types of cancer vary in incidence by more than an order of magnitude between different populations and every type is rare in some part of the world. Many specific causes cancer are now known, the most common are by smoking, obesity and a few oncogenic viruses, but a large proportion of global variation for common cancers such as breast, prostate, colon and rectum remains unexplained (Peto J. , 2001).

My group was composed with Cynthia Perez, Luisa Diaz, Karrah Lyday, and I. At first, we could not come up an idea that would benefit the university community until someone in the group mention the parking lot situation every student and faculty member faces in the morning. We did not have a plan at first, but our goal was to finish the question from the worksheet in which Cynthia took over by writing down all the answers. In my opinion, I feel that I did contribute within the group because I helped to answer several questions from the worksheet. Whereas, Cynthia was writing down the answers, as well as, helping the group come up with other ideas. While we were discussing the question in the group, Karrah’s main focus was to finish the tickets and flyers and she did contribute with several ideas for the group as well. Also, Luisa was part of the group in which she helped out the first day because on the second day she was not in class to finish the questions from the worksheet.
