- Population Genetics In the study of population genetics, an important measure of inbreeding is the proportion of homozygous genotypesthat is, instances in which the two alleles carried at a particular site on an individuals chromosomes are both the same. For population in which blood-related individual mate, them is a higher than expected frequency of homozygous individuals. Examples of such populations include endangered or rare species, selectively bred breeds, and isolated populations. in general. the frequency of homozygous children from mating of blood-related parents is greater than that for children from unrelated parents Measured over a large number of generations, the proportion of heterozygous genotypesthat is, nonhomozygous genotypeschanges by a constant factor 1 from generation to generation. The factor 1 is a number between 0 and 1. If 1=0.75, for example then the proportion of heterozygous individuals in the population decreases by 25 in each generation In this case, after 10 generations, the proportion of heterozygous individuals in the population decreases by 94.37, since 0.7510=0.0563, or 5.63. In other words, 94.37 of the population is homozygous. For specific types of matings, the proportion of heterozygous genotypes can be related to that of previous generations and is found from an equation. For mating between siblings 1 can be determined as the largest value of for which 2=12+14. This equation comes from carefully accounting for the genotypes for the present generation the 2 term in terms of those previous two generations represented by for the parents generation and by the constant term of the grandparents generation. a Find both solutions to the quadratic equation above and identify which is 1 use a horizontal span of 1 to 1 in this exercise and the following exercise. b After 5 generations, what proportion of the population will be homozygous? c After 20 generations, what proportion of the population will be homozygous?arrow_forwardusing excelarrow_forwardIf the Cumulative Gain at a depth of 10% for the Decision Tree is converted to number of primary/positive event cases, what will be the number of cases?

- Price and Marketing How influenced are consumers by price and marketing? If something costs more, do our expectations lead us to believe it is better? Because expectations play such a large role in reality, can a product that čosts more (but is in reality identical) actually be more effective? Baba Shiv, a neuroeconomist at Stanford, conducted a study involving 204 undergraduates. In the study, all students consumed a popular energy drink which claims on its packaging to increase mental acuity. The students were then asked to solve a series of puzzles. The students were charged either regular price ($1.89) for the drink or a discount price ($0.89). The student receiving the discount price were told that they were able to buy the drink at a discount since the drinks had been purchased in bulk. The authors of the study describe the result: "the number of puzzles solved was lower in the reduced-price condition (M = 4.2) than in the regular-price condition (M 5.8)...p < 0.0001".

An airline offers discounted "advance purchase " fares to customers who buy tickets more than 30 days before travel and charges "regular" fares for tickets purchased during those last 30 days. The company has noticed that 60% of its customers take advantage of the advance-purchase fares. The "no-show" rate among people who paid regular fares is 30%, but only 5% of customers with advance-purchase tickets are no-shows. a) What percent of all ticket holders are no-shows? b) What 's the probability that a customer who didn't show had an advance -purchase ticket? c) Is being a no-show independent of the type of ticket a passenger holds? Explain. 5.0 * 09 Sarah Schrijvers a) The percent of no-shows is the percent of no-shows of advance-purchase tickets increased by the percent of no-shows of advance purchase tickets: P(no-show) = 0.6 × 0.05+0.4 × 0.3…arrow_forward[Regression Analysis] How do you solve this? a) Is smoking a significant factor in the risk of stroke?
