Choose a human virus (not HIV or Flu) that causes permanent and long lasting symptoms. Create a comprehensive presentation (2-3 paragraphs) including at least the following:

Describe the virus agent- what does it look like? Include an image if possible.

Describe how the virus enters the body (if it enters)

Describe the affects of the virus.

Describe the signs and symptoms of the virus.

What are the long-lasting affects of the virus?

3.4 - Two laboratory procedures for determining the amylase level in human body fluids are compared. The new

method is less expensive than the existing method, but may give different results. To compare, both methods

are used on each of 10 subjects, with the following results (amylase level in units per millilitre):

a) Explain why the results should be analysed as paired data.

b) Do the methods significantly for the level of amylase determined?

Carry out a hypothesis test (including all the steps) and write your conclusion in plain English. Use a significance level of 10%.

c) Calculate a 90% confidence interval for the difference in amylase level for the two methods. Based on your hypothesis test result, did you expect to find 0 in the interval? Explain

(Show all working out and dont use technology (ie. spss or excel))

There is growing scientific research that human activity is leading to global climate change. Auto emission and burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide other gasses into the air and scientists warn about the “greenhouse effect” and warming temperatures and reduced air quality.

Define and explain how the concepts of external cost or externalities, social cost and private costs apply to the analysis of this issue.

Should the government impose a higher tax on the price per gallon of gasoline to shift the external cost on to purchasers and reduce also reduce demand and consumption?

A screening examination was performed on 250 persons for human papilloma virus (HPV), which is found in cervical cancer. A definitive diagnosis for cervical cancer among the 250 subjects had been obtain previously. There were 60 subject who tested positive for HPV who also had cervical cancer, 40 subjects who tested positive for HPV but did not have cervical cancer. There were 10 subjects who tested negative for HPV, but had cervical cancer and 140 subjects who tested negative for HPV, who did not have cervical cancer. (Hint: create a 2 X 2 table). The specificity of this test is expressed as: I need the "specificity" of this test

The human body generates heat by the metabolism of carbohydrates and other food materials. Metabolism provides energy for al biological activities. The metabolic process also generates heat, and there are special cells in the body whose main function is heat generation. Now let us assume that our friend Joe BlueHen ingests 1 L of ice, which he allows to melt in his mouth before swallowing.

a) How much energy is required to melt the ice and warm the water to the body temperature?

b) If 1 g of fat when metabolized releases approximately 42 kJ of energy, how much fat will Joe burn by ingesting the water?

c) Suppose that instead of ice, Joe drank 1 L of water at 0 degrees Celsius. How would the answers to parts a and b change?

Luis Suarez is a soccer player with a barely controllable hunger for human flesh. He has, numerous times, bitten an opposing player during a game. If he bites someone again, he will be banned from playing. In any game, the probability he bites an opponent is 0.15. Let the random variable B be the the number of games from now until Luis Suarez bites an opponent, and is subsequently suspended. a) Write out the probability mass function for B. b) What is the probability that Luis bites someone in the fourth game from now? c) If Luis promises not to bite anyone in the next six games, what is the probability that he will last more than 10 games without biting an opponent?

The human eye is most sensitive over the same wavelength range at which the Sun emits the greatest intensity of radiation. The Sun is a G-type star; see Table 17.1 in Section 17.2 for this classification scheme.

Suppose creatures were to evolve on a planet orbiting a star somewhat hotter than the Sun, let’s say an average F-type star. Let’s also assume that the atmospheric properties of their planet are the same as we find on earth today. To what wavelength ranges, approximately, do you think their vision would most likely be sensitive to? Explain your reasoning. For full credit, you should explore at least one resource besides your textbook. Be sure to cite references used.

In 1940, two researchers named Weiner and Landsteiner discovered that about 85% of the human population sampled possessed a blood cell protein called the Rh factor (D antigen). The presence of Rh factor was labeled Rh positive (Rh+) and was found to be dominant over the absence of the blood factor (Rh–). Rh factor is inherited in a typical Mendelian pattern. Based on this information, one could predict that two Rh+ parents could never have an Rh– child. Is it true? Write a descriptive explanation.
