BLAST results will indicate the percentage of genome comparison among known sequences as well as predicted sequences. A predicted sequence can best be characterized as a(n)
| a. |
computational analysis showing similarity to a known protein |
|
| b. |
expected similarity to a species due to evolutionary relationship |
|
| c. |
a sequence found in all species of a particular genus |
|
| d. |
the educated computerized “guess” based on the original programmer’s data input |
All cancers arise as a result of changes in the DNA sequence of the genomes of cancer cells. Gene expression assays may be helpful in showing the progression of the cancer phenotype by identifying the driver mutations which are:
| a. |
mutations that develop as the cancer becomes invasive |
|
| b. |
activating and loss of function mutations |
|
| c. |
mutations that initiated the cancer |
|
| d. |
mutations that make the cancer chemotherapy resistant |

The true percentage of left-handed people is 13% (p = .13)
1) a. If we survey two hundred people, how many left handers do you expect to survey?
b. If you repeat this survey, will you always get this number of
left-handers (the
expectation)? Why or why not?
c. What is the spread (standard deviation) of the sample proportions?
d. Use the empirical rule to describe where we expect sample
proportions to lie if we
repeated this survey (with size of 200 people) over and over
again
68% of sample proportions would lie between ______________and _____________
95% of sample proportions would lie between _____________and______________
99.7% of sample proportions would lie between _____________and______________

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is registered to vote. Suppose that 418 employed persons and 413 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 251 of the employed persons and 183 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote. Can we conclude that the percentage of employed workers (p1), who have registered to vote, exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers ( p2 ), who have registered to vote? Use a significance level of α=0.01 for the test.
Step 1 of 6: State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.
Step 2 of 6: Find the values of the two sample proportions, p^1 and p^2. Round your answers to three decimal places.
Step 3 of 6: Compute the weighted estimate of p, p‾. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Step 4 of 6: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Step 5 of 6: Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis H0H0. Round the numerical portion of your answer to two decimal places.
Step 6 of 6: Make the decision for the hypothesis test.

Suppose that 642 employed persons and 745 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 376 of the employed persons and 300 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote. Can we conclude that the percentage of employed workers ( p1 ), who have registered to vote, exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers ( p2 ), who have registered to vote?

A recent study of high school students shows the percentage of females and males who have at LEAST one notation in their school record for inappropriate behavior. A simple random sample of high school students was interviewed. The students were asked whether they had a notation for inappropriate behavior in their school record. Of the 100 females, 21 answered yes, as did 145 of the 400 males.
Part A: Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the difference in population proportions of females and males who have at LEAST one notation for inappropriate behavior. Be sure to state the parameter, check conditions, perform calculations, and make conclusion(s). (8 points)
Part B: Does your interval from part A give convincing evidence of a difference between the population proportions? Explain. (2 points) (10 points)
