Oculocutaneous albinism results from a mutation in one of several genes which codes for proteins important in the manufacturing of melanin. It is inherited via traditional Mendelian inheritance patterns in which normal melanin production is dominant and abnormal melanin production (or low/no melanin production) is recessive. Using the letters ‘A’ and ‘a’ to represent the 2 forms of this gene, complete the following. Show your work! You may use Punnett squares or probabilities.

Write one page about for a product or service of your choice,
the price of the product or service compared to other competitor
prices (who are the top competitors, and the business or
organization that sells the product. Identify three fiscal
policies. Explain how the three fiscal policies impact supply and
demand for the chosen product or industry. What causes movement or
shifts in supply and demand for your chosen product or service?
Forecast what the price of the product will be in a year and
explain why? Are there any controversial issues surrounding the
product or service?
A general introduction to the paper including the name of the
product or service, and industry. Explain why you chose the product
or service and industry.
A detailed discussion of the specific topic you have chosen. Select
three fiscal policies and explain the impact on the product or
industry. This is the body of your essay assignment. Support and
document your findings with citations from your sources.
A concluding paragraph reflecting on the process of research and
the future of the product or service and anticipated price in the
future.

Rural County has a population of 15,000, a small primary care
hospital, and ten
physicians, including seven general and family practitioners, an
obstetrician, a pediatrician,
and a general surgeon. All the physicians are solo practitioners.
The nearest urban area is
about 60 miles away in Big City, which has a population of 300,000,
and three major
hospitals to which patients from Rural County are referred or
transferred for higher levels
of hospital care. However, Big City is too far away for most
residents of Rural County to
use for services available in Rural County.
Insurance Company, which operates throughout the state, is
attempting to offer
“managed care” programs in all areas of the state, and has asked
the local physicians in
Rural County to form an IPA to provide services under the program
to covered persons
living in the county. No other managed care plan has attempted to
enter the county
previously.
Initially, two of the general practitioners and two of the
specialists express interest in
forming a network, but Insurance Company says that it intends to
market its plan to the
larger local employers, who need broader geographic and specialty
coverage for their
employees. Consequently, Insurance Company needs more of the local
general practitioners
and the one remaining specialist in the IPA in order to provide
adequate geographic,
specialty, and backup coverage to subscribers in Rural County.
Eventually, four of the
seven general practitioners and the one remaining specialist join
the IPA and agree to
provide services to Insurance Company’s subscribers under contracts
providing for
capitation. While the physicians’ participation in the IPA is
structured to be nonexclusive,
no other managed care plan has yet entered the local market or
approached any of the
physicians about joining a different provider panel. In discussing
the formation of the IPA
with the Insurance Company, a number of the physicians have made
clear their intention
to continue to practice outside the IPA and have indicated they
would be interested in
contracting individually with other managed care plans when those
plans expand into Rural
County. Insurance Company requests your legal advice about whether
this network
formation is likely to be challenged by the federal government.
Discuss whether the network described in the Problem would likely be challenged by the federal government.
Why? On what legal basis?
What would be your response to a challenge?
Would factors increase or decrease your changes of a federal challenge?

Computer programs can be used to make decisions about your insurance as well as the rates you will be charged for health and life insurance policies. For example, certain preexisting conditions may raise your insurance premiums considerably. Is it ethical for insurance companies to access your health records and then make insurance decisions about you? Explain your answer.

You are the networking expert for a large company. First, your company has one small branch office that is connected to an Internet Service Provider via one router. This branch office is not expected to grow or change in the next three years. Second, your company has a larger office building with three routers to interconnect within the building and also to connect to an Internet Service Provider. This larger office building is not expected to change in the next three years. Finally, your company has a campus of buildings for its main headquarters. You have a rapidly changing and growing network at this headquarters as buildings are added, departments relocated, and routers are added. Your semi-technical boss says, "I hear about static, default, and dynamic routing, but it sounds confusing. Let's just make everything the same and use dynamic routing everywhere. I hear that is the easiest." You would like more flexibility and efficiency as you connect your networks. Tell your boss why it might be best to use different routing choices at the different locations. Summarize your recommendations in a snappy, one page memo. Your boss isn't too technical, so keep it fairly simple to understand, but be sure to state your case that different routing choices at the different locations is the best way to proceed.

4) In fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster), grayish eye color and wingless bodies are caused by recessive genes located on different chromosomes. Red eyes (gr+) and normal wings (wl+) are dominant to gray eyes (gr) and wingless (wl), respectively. Suppose that a true-breeding male with gray eyes and normal wings is crossed with a true-breeding female with red eyes and wingless. a) What is the genotype and phenotype of the F1? b) If these F1 individuals were allowed to intermate, what would be the phenotypic ratio of the resulting F2 flies?

CO2 is removed from the body through the lungs in a process that is mediated by red blood cells, as summarized in the figure below. Transport of CO2 is coupled to the transport of O2 through hemoglobin.
-To what extent does the intracellular pH or the red blood cell vary during its movement from the tissues to the lungs and back, and why is this so?
-In what form, and where is the CO2 during its movement from the tissues of the body to the lungs?
-How is it that the CL-/HCO3- exchanger operates in one direction in tissues and in the opposite direction in the lungs?

Donna donates stock in Chipper Corporation to the American Red Cross on September 10, 2019. She purchased the stock for $23,450 on December 28, 2018, and it had a fair market value of $33,500 when she made the donation.
a. What is Donna’s charitable contribution
deduction?
The stock is treated as property and Donna's
charitable contribution deduction is $ for tax purposes.
b. Assume instead that the stock had a fair
market value of $20,100 (rather than $33,500) when it was donated
to the American Red Cross. What is Donna’s charitable contribution
deduction?
