The sign charts of the first and second derivatives of a function are given below. At which of the following -values is the original function decreasing and concave up?  

Given the sign chart for the derivative below, choose the -value where the function has a relative maximum. Select all correct answers.  

The revenue function for a certain item is , where is the quantity of the items sold. Given that [m]00 and [k], estimate the revenue when 2[b] items are sold. (You don’t need to type the units.)

DNA is related to protein synthesis, which is related to Mendel’s Laws. In 1-2 paragraphs: Briefly explain how DNA relates to protein synthesis. This should not overlap with the information provided in Question 1 as the focus is now on examples of the type of protein (2 points). Provide an example of two siblings by explaining WHY they look similar (2 points) yet different (2 points) based on their DNA and protein synthesis.  Explain how Mendel’s Laws relate to proteins and DNA(2 points). Use the example from above with the two siblings again. Why are some of their traits similar (2 points) and some of them different (2 points) based on their DNA and simple Mendelian genetics?
