All of us have been shaped by both nature (biology) and nurture (environment), making us the persons we are today. In most cases, it is difficult to completely disentangle the separate effects of nature vs. nurture with much certainty. However, we can make some educated guesses based on our knowledge of familial tendencies that we may have inherited, as well as knowledge of our environment and experiences. In this section, we ask for you to make some educated guesses about the roles of nature and nurture in your life.

Describe the role of nature (biology) in shaping what kind of person you are today. Provide a specific example of the role of nature.

Describe the role of nurture (environment) in shaping what kind of person you are today. Provide a specific example of the role of nurture.

Write a minimum of 2 paragraphs with no spelling or grammatical errors. Looking for an educated response with a reference listed if used.

3. A company wants to find out if the average response time to a request differs across its two servers. Say µ1 is the true mean/expectation response time on server 1 and µ2 the true mean/expectation response time on server 2. Independent samples across the two servers is taken. 196 observations on server 1 return a sample mean of X¯ = 12.5 seconds and a sample variance of s 2 = 9 seconds. 225 observations on server 2 return a sample mean of X¯ = 12.2 seconds and a sample variance of s 2 = 16 seconds.

a. Write the null and alternative hypothesis that will address the goal of the company. Compute the test statistic, and state how you would obtain the p-value.

b. Say the p-value is very large (closer to 1). In a sentence or two explain what you would conclude about the null and alternative hypothesis.

c. Create and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the two servers population expectations.

d. The 95% confidence interval from part c. contains 0. How does this result relate to your explanation in part b? Explain in a sentence or two.

) Suppose an earthquake happened in a foreign country which is large enough to make significant changes in world financial markets. This earthquake led to significant amount of casualties in the country without much effect on the capital stock. What should be the effect of this on price level, real exchange rate, and nominal exchange rate of our small domestic economy in long run and from long run to very-long run? Explain in detail by showing the changes in the relevant market

  1. Consider a 10-month forward contract on a stock when the stock is £50. Assume that the risk-free rate of interest continuously compounded is 8% per annum for all maturities and that the dividends of £0.75 per share are expected after 3 months, 6 months and 9 months.
  1. What is the price of the 10-month forward contract?
  1. Considering the arguments of arbitrage opportunity explain in detail why the forward contract price must be exactly equal to the result of (a) above.

State A and B has each confirmed 80 COVID-19 patients. The national government wants to reduce their cases by allocating vaccines. Suppose the marginal costs associated with COVID-19 treatment are MCA =50+3QA for state A and MCB = 20 + 6QB for state B, where QA and QB are the quantities of COVID-19 recovery in each state. The country’s marginal benefit from COVID-19 control is given by MB = 620 − 3QT, where QT is the total recovery after treatment. 1) What is the socially optimal level of each state’s recovery? 2) How many total confirmed cases are there in the social optimum? 3) Suppose only the Federal government has limited vaccines, explain why it is inefficient to allocate each state an equal number of vaccines without rights for them to trade. 4) Explain how the social optimum can be achieved if states are given equal numbers of vaccines but are allowed to trade them. 5) Can the social optimum be achieved using a subsidy on treatment? If so, at what value?

Part 2: Living with Cancer

Answer the following 4 questions completely and clearly as possible, and explain your thoughts and ideas fully:

Many early cancers often are not associated with any pain and often few, if any, clinical symptoms. Discuss why this might be so.

Pain is often the most intense and difficult symptom associated with cancer; however, aggressive treatment of pain in the last days of a patient with cancer may depress breathing and hasten death. How do you think pain should be managed in terminal patients with painful cancer-related conditions?

A patient being treated for cancer usually develops leukopenia and an increased risk for cancer. What are the pros and cons of keeping cancer patients in the hospital during aggressive chemotherapy treatment?
