Suppose that you were trying to determine if more than half of Americans get information about science and technology from the Internet. In 2016, the General Social Survey asked its participants: Where do you get most of your information about science and technology: newspapers, magazines, the Internet, books or other printed materials, TV, radio, government agencies, family, friends, colleagues, or some other source? Out of 1389, 717 said they got most of their information from the internet.
The hypotheses being tested are: Ho: p = 0.50 versus Ha: p [select] [">", "<", "not="] 0.50
The test statistic is [select] ["0.515", "0.016", "1.193"]
The p-value is [select] ["0.4425", "0.2340", "0.8830", "0.1170"]
So we have [select] ["very strong", "strong", "some", "no"] statistically significant evidence that the [select] ["population proportion", "sample proportion"] of Americans in 2016 who get most of their information about science and technology from the Internet is more than half.

1. Do you think that if people know about the dark trade and how it works that they would still purchase the counterfeit items?
2.Can you tell me something why you disagree this paragraph and ask one question what she thinks of this disagreement?
Here is the paragraph: Shelley makes a point that globalization plays a great role in human trafficking, counterfeit goods, and counterfeiting in general which we could see in the documentary. I disagree in the sense that media and internet help spread crime. Growing up in the twentieth century, it is fair to say that technology has only increased and improved. I am not arguing that individuals do not use the Internet for criminal activity such as posting child pornography anonymously and money laundering, but I think with technology increasing, what is able to happen in the future? I think that yes criminals can get away with it anonymously now but for how much longer? I hope and think that in the future technology will be able to stop all cyber-crimes from happening.

In 1985, an assessment of a population of butterflies found that individuals appeared in a wide range of colors, from dark red to a light blue. In 2010, the same population of butterflies was assessed, and it was observed that only dark red and light blue butterflies remained. Identify the type of selection that occurred in this population and discuss how it supports the claim that a single environmental factor can yield a variety of phenotypic responses from different genotypes within a population.
