State your hypothesis for Experiment 1 here:
Due to natural selection, rabbits with the brown fur trait will be less likely to survive predation by wolves within the artic environment because the brown fur trait of these rabbits are easier to spot in a white (artic) environment causing the wolves to be able to hunt them easier. In contrast, the rabbits with the white fur trait can easily camouflage and adapt to their environment causing the wolves to have a difficult time to find prey.

Challenge question I. Michael is shopping for a special automobile. He finds the exact car he wants, a 1966 dark blue Pontiac GTO. This car is currently the property of a neighbor, so to buy it for the agreed-upon price of $40,000, Michael must secure his own financing. He visits four different financial institutions and gets the following available loans:
Bank 1: 60 monthly payments of $782.65
Bank 2: 72 monthly payments of $667.65
Bank 3: 208 weekly payments of $219.56 (Assume a 52-week year.)
Bank 4: 12 quarterly payments of $3,667.20
Which loan should Michael take? Hint: Which loan has the lowest EAR?
1. If Michael selects Bank 1 for the loan, what is the periodic interest rate on the loan?
______% (Round to four decimal places.)
2. If Michael selects Bank 1 for the loan, what is the EAR on the loan?
____% (Round to two decimal places.)
3. If Michael selects Bank 2 for the loan, what is the periodic interest rate on the loan?
___% (Round to four decimal places.)
4. If Michael selects Bank 2 for the loan, what is the EAR on the loan?
____% (Round to two decimal places.)
5. If Michael selects Bank 3 for the loan, what is the periodic interest rate on the loan?

A system consists of 2 kg of carbon dioxide gas initially at
state 1, where p1 = 1 bar,
T1 = 300 K. The system undergoes a power cycle
consisting of the following processes:
Process 1–2: Constant volume to p2 = 4
bar.
Process 2–3: Expansion with pv1.4 =
constant.
Process 3–1: Constant-pressure compression.
Assuming the ideal gas model and neglecting kinetic and potential
energy effects, calculate thermal efficiency.
