Task

The U.S. Congress has just contacted you and your team with their dilemma:  
Should they authorize spending two billion dollars on a study of 
radiolarians?  Congress wants to know how radiolarians impact the food chain, 
and whether they are important historically, ecologically, and even 
artistically.  You and your team will make a PowerPoint presentation to 
Congress sharing background information about radiolarians, as well as your 
recommendation about the funding.
