Explain in detail how (1) temperature, (2) nutrient level, 3) oxygen level, and 4) the antibiotic chloramphenicol affect bacteria. It is not sufficient to say that the condition slows or speeds up growth, but clearly indicate the underlying physiological reason why each condition would decrease or increase growth. What impact does each condition have on bacterial cells physiologically?

3. Someone claims that a certain suspension contains at least seven particles per mL. You sample 1mL of solution. Let X be the number of particles in the sample.
If the mean number of particles is exactly seven per mL (so that the claim is true, but just barely), what is P(X ≤ 1)? Round the answer to four decimal places.
4. A company receives a large shipment of bolts. The bolts will be used in an application that requires a torque of 100 J. Before the shipment is accepted, a quality engineer will sample 12 bolts and measure the torque needed to break each of them. The shipment will be accepted if the engineer concludes that fewer than 1% of the bolts in the shipment have a breaking torque of less than 100 J.
Assume the 12 values are sampled from a normal population, and assume the sample mean and standard deviation calculated in part (a) are actually the population mean and standard deviation. Compute the proportion of bolts whose breaking torque is less than 100 J. Will the shipment be accepted? Round the answer to two decimal places and express the answer as a percentage.
__% of bolts would have breaking torques less than 100 J.

A 2^4-1 experiment was performed to improve the yield of a chemical process. Four factors were selected, and two replicates were run. Due to raw materials constraints, it was possible to run only 8 runs. Thus, the design generator D = ABC was selected. The data are shown in the following table. Create the standard order fractional factorial design in Minitab. Analyze the fractional factorial design and, following the principle of hierarchical order, remove all interaction terms then main effects that are not statistically significant at p = 0.05. Analyze the reduced factorial design and output a normal probability plot, fitted values plot, and plots of the residuals versus each factor. State the final model and comment on its adequacy based on its R-square values and residuals analyses. What settings of the final model predictors maximize yield?
