Group 1: You want to study S. goldii’s sensitivity to antibiotics.  So you expose it to the following antibiotics. [1] – an antibiotic that prevents the production of the cell wall by inhibiting the function of transglycosylase. [2] – an antibiotic that prevents RNA transcription by inhibiting the function of the bacterial RNA polymerase.

Iamque adeō super ūnus eram, cum līmina Vestaeservantem et tacitam sēcrētā in sēde latentem    Tyndarida aspiciō; dant clāram incendia lūcem    errantī passimque oculōs per cūncta ferentī.    Illa sibi infēstōs ēversa ob Pergama Teucrōs    et Danaum poenam et dēsertī coniugis īrās    praemetuēns, Troiae et patriae commūnis Erīnys, abdiderat sēsē atque ārīs invīsa sedēbat.    Exarsēre ignēs animō; subit īra cadentem    ulciscī patriam et scelerātās sūmere poenās.       In line 4, ‘ferenti’ is used to describe an act of:

Translate the passage below as literally as possible, accounting for every word in your translation. Aeneid, Book 2, lines 289-293 Heu fuge, nāte deā, tēque hīs” ait “ēripe flammīs. Hostis habet mūrōs; ruit altō ā culmine Troia.    Sat patriae Priamōque datum: sī Pergama dextrā    dēfendī possent, etiam hāc dēfēnsa fuissent.    Sacra suōsque tibī commendat Troia penātēs;   

Read the passage below and then answer the questions that follow. Iamque adeō super ūnus eram, cum līmina Vestaeservantem et tacitam sēcrētā in sēde latentem    Tyndarida aspiciō; dant clāram incendia lūcem    errantī passimque oculōs per cūncta ferentī.    Illa sibi infēstōs ēversa ob Pergama Teucrōs    et Danaum poenam et dēsertī coniugis īrās    praemetuēns, Troiae et patriae commūnis Erīnys, abdiderat sēsē atque ārīs invīsa sedēbat.    Exarsēre ignēs animō; subit īra cadentem    ulciscī patriam et scelerātās sūmere poenās.       In line 1, ‘super unus eram’ can be translated:

Use this set-up for Problems 11-12:    Consider the images above.An experiment consists of the spinner being spun twice. The probabilities associated to each outcome of the overall experiment (not of each individual spin) are identical to the probabilities of the outcomes of which experiment described below?

True or False:If the and , the appropriate decision is to REJECT the null hypothesis.

A chemist is studying the properties of both CaSO4 and PbSO4. They are both white powders.  Neither conducts electricity until placed in water (remember that electrolytic solutions are created due to the presence of ions in solution). 1. The chemist places excess CaSO4(s) in a beaker with 100 mL of water.  She also adds excess PbSO4 in another beaker containing 100 mL of water.  After stirring, she checks the electrical conductivity and determines that it is higher in the CaSO4 beaker.  Which compound is more soluble in water – CaSO4 or PbSO4?  Justify your answer; 2. View the diagram below.  Describe in detail what the PbSO4 beaker would look like in comparison to the CaSO4 beaker;   3. The chemist then tries to increase the solubility of CaSO4 by adding 20.0 mL of 1.0 M H2SO4 to the beaker and observes additional precipitate.  Explain.

Suppose you roll this weighted die twice. What is the probability that you roll either a 4 on the first roll or a 6 on the second roll?

Use this set-up for Problems 53-56: A Quinnipiac poll performed on January 28-February 1, 2021 asked Americans, “Are you willing to get a COVID-19 vaccine, or not?” 30% of respondents said they were not. You wonder whether this proportion has changed in the past few years, so you conduct a poll of 100 Americans and ask the same question. 25 people in your sample were unwilling to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Suppose you set . What hypotheses should you set-up to determine if the percentage has changed since the initial poll?
