A pollster claims that the mean amount spent on Christmas gifts by an American family is
$930 with a standard deviation of $180. What is the probability that the mean amount spent on
Christmas gifts for a sample of 500 families is between $910 and $970?

lasts longer than 276 days?

In a sheep brain, we see that the thalamus acts as a relay point for all sensory processing and noted the very large size of this structure.

A. Do you think there are differences between the sensory systems of the sheep and the human? For example, do humans and sheep use each sensory system the same amount, or are there certain senses that are more prominent in sheep or in humans?

B. How would this manifest anatomically?

C. write 2-3 sentences* describing:

(i) its location in the brain

(ii) its neurological relationship to nearby structures

(iii) any neurologic disorders associated with its dysfunction.

Of 31 children born of father-daughter matings, 6 died in infancy, 12 were abnormal and died in childhood, and 13 were normal. From this information calculate roughly how many recessive lethal genes we have, on average, in the human genome. (Hint: if the answer were 1, then the daughter would stand a 50% chance of carrying the lethal allele, and the probability of the union’s producing a lethal combination would be 1/2 * 1/4 = 1/8. So, 1 is not the answer.) Discuss the possibility of undetected fatalities in utero in such matings. How would they affect your result?
