In a psychology experiment, 24 previously unacquainted adults were asked to line up against a wall. The arrangement according to gender (m= male, f = female) was as follows:
mfmmmmfmmmffffmffmmmffff
Do the data provide sufficient evidence at α=0.05 significance level to indicate a lack of randomness?
Stating which test was used would be very helpful, thanks!

Having identified each of these cDNAs, you want to determine the intracellular route traveled by each of these glycoproteins, and the speed with which they traverse their biosynthetic pathways to arrive at their final destination. How would you use a pulse-chase experiment in combination with monitoring the glycosylation status of your glycoproteins to determine the speed with which these proteins traverse their biosynthetic pathway?

A medical researcher suspects that giving post-surgical patients large doses of Vitamin E will speed their recovery times by helping their incisions heal more quickly.
Design an experiment to test this conjecture. It must be randomized, comparative, double blind and placebo controlled.
Be sure to identify the factors, levels, treatments, response variable and role of randomization.
Thank you.

Which of the following represents empirical evidence? Group of answer choices
a. A second-hand account of a researcher’s observations
b. A research study without controls identified
c. An experiment that outlines the methods used
d. A review of studies that have been conducted on vaccine safety

Two fair coins and a fair die are tossed. Find the sample space
of the
experiment (10 pts); Find the probabilities of the following
events:
A- ”the die shows 2 or 3” (5 pts);
B- ”one of the coins is head, the other - tail, and the die shows
an odd number” (5
pts).
Are the events A and B independent? (5 pts).
Give proofs.

Mothballs are composed primarily of the hydrocarbon naphthalene (C10H8). When 1.025 g of naphthalene is burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 24.25 ?C to 32.33 ?C.
Find ?Erxn for the combustion of naphthalene. The heat capacity of the calorimeter, determined in a separate experiment, is 5.11kJ/?C.
Express the change in energy in kilojoules per mole to three significant figures.

The elimination experiment performed this week proceeds via E2 mechanism according to the textbook. As you have learned in lecture, there is stereoselctivity as well as regioselctivity associated with the E2 mechanism. What do you expect the products of reaction to be? Which is the major product and which is the minor product? Explain your answer from both setereoselctivity and regioselectivity aspects.
