Question 4

In capillary beds, there is mass movement of fluids and molecules into and out of capillary beds. For movement of fluids, simple diffusion is not sufficient and two pressure-based mechanisms are utilized.

1. Describe the action of the competing forces driving filtration of fluids in a capillary bed.
2. Describe the action of the competing forces driving reabsorption of fluids in a capillary bed.
3. Predict how physiological changes in the capillary beds in response to an increase in body temperature restores homeostasis.

Sketch the graph of a function f(x) that satisfies all the given conditions. Clearly label any asymptotes, extreme values and points of inflection.

f(x) is only discontinuous at x = −4.

f(x) has a global minimum but no global maximum.

f'(x) > 0 only on the intervals (−∞, −4) and (1, 3).

f(x) only changes concavity at x = −1 and x = 4.

limx→∞ f(x) = 4.

In words, but making use of equations where appropriate, explain how the Principal of Conservation of Linear Momentum is a demonstration of Newton’s third law of motion. In particular, consider a simple collision between two objects. The collision may be either elastic or inelastic. It may be head-on or oblique. State how the changes in motion as a result of this collision relate to Newton’s Third Law. Finally expand your reasoning to cover a many particle system.

C. Why is replication an important cell process? (1pt)

Point Mutation

A. How does the point mutation that you made change the DNA code on your molecule? (2pts)

B. Referring to your textbook, explain how mutations can occur in cells and how such changes might affect an organism with the mutation. (2pts)

Draw 1000 samples of size 10, 25, 40 from exponential distribution with mean 10 and threshold 0 and calculate mean for each sample. Now produce histogram for sample mean.

a. What do you notice in the shape of the distribution of sample mean as sample size increases? Also, what changes in the standard error of the sample mean?

b. As the sample size increases , the sample mean goes to what number?

What are futures contracts? Give an example of how a futures contract can be used as protection against commodity price changes. Why did the price of the May WTI futures contract fall to about -$40. Is there a surplus of oil? What does this have to do with the state of the economy? Explain.

Note: Each WTI contract is for 1000 barrels of oil, and each barrel contains 42 gallons.

Please write at least 10 sentences.
