With the spread of the Coronavirus, much of the business community’s traditional way of looking business has changed. The business community is looking more flexible business operations with minimum human interaction with least amount of stocks goods and services. Perhaps e-business, efficient customer care and response, electronic billing and payment systems and the Japanese concept of just-in-time delivery are considered to be the components of a viable business operation.
In your BUS 209 class, you learnt Solving Problems, Some Special Equations and Rates of Change, Summarizing Data, Measuring Uncertainty and Probability Distributions. Examine the different components of viable business operation by applying quantitative methods to collect and describe data using sampling methods. To assess the components risk and uncertainty, you may use probability distributions, expected value, variance and standard deviation.
Write a three pages report on the title of “Quantitative Approach to a Viable Business Operation in the Post-Coronavirus Era”. (minimum 3 pages).
Hint: The following functions are considered to be the most important business functions

I'm a social psychologist, so I'm interested primarily in the situational and contextual factors that drive human behavior. When you're seeking to predict or explain a person's actions, looking at the social norms, and
the person's context, is usually a pretty safe bet. Situational constraints typically predict behavior far better than personality, intelligence, or
other individual-level traits. So when I see a student failing to assignments, missing deadlines, or not delivering results in other aspects of their life, I'm moved to ask: what are the situational factors holding this student back? What needs are currently not being met? And, when it comes to behavioral "laziness", I'm especially moved to ask: what are the barriers to action that I can't see?There are always barriers. Recognizing those barriers— and viewing them as legitimate—is often the Rrst step to breaking "lazy" behavior patterns.
( I'm interested primarily in the situationaland contextual factors that drive human behavior.) set of sentences that stand out to you for any reason. Do you agree? Do you disagree? Does something seem familiar or remind you of another reading or situation?

Following hurricane Katrina, many people were housed in trailers provided by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). A potential health concern for individuals living in the trailers is exposure to formaldehyde (due to its use in adhesives). From Sept. 19 to Oct. 7, 2006, air samples were collected from 96 new, unused travel trailers from, at a staging area in Baton Rouge, LA. Only previously unoccupied trailers were tested in order to eliminate any effects from human activities that might cause formaldehyde levels to rise. The units tested had been closed for approximately six weeks before the sampling. The air sampling data was analyzed for FEMA by the Department of Health and Human Services' Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) in Atlanta, GA. The baseline concentration of formaldehyde in the units averaged 1.2 ppmv (parts per million by volume) at the beginning of the test. What was the average formaldehyde concentration within the trailers, expressed in units of g/m3? Assume that the temperature inside the units was 25oC and P = 1 atm. Molecular weight of formaldehyde is 30 g/mole.

Research the health-illness continuum and its relevance to patient care. In a 750-1,000 word paper, discuss the relevance of the continuum to patient care and present a perspective of your current state of health in relation to the wellness spectrum. Include the following:
please answer all the questions seperately.. please include references

True or False questions
1. It is fortunate that more people are not infected with cellular diseases because a cell cycle has only one checkpoint to stop abnormal cells from dividing.
2. Cancer cells divide more frequently than non-cancerous cells which explains why radiation and chemotherapy are effective cancer cell treatments.
3. Sister chromatids separate during meiosis II which results in cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
4. It is fortunate that more people are not infected with cellular diseases because a cell cycle has only one check point to stop abnormal cells from dividing.
5.Karyotypes provide a photographic view of a cell's chromosomes.
6.Human gametes are haploid with one set of chromosomes and diploid cells have three sets of chromosomes.
7.If the genes for blue eyes and fair skin are linked it would be more likely that an individual would have brown eyes and fair skin than blue eyes and fair skin.
8.Many genes in the human population have more than one allele and freckles is an example of this phenomenon.
