Based on the expectation E(X)/μ, would you want to attempt a trial? (YES/NO)  Why? Describe your reasoning in a sentence or two. Note: If you couldn’t find E(X)/μ in the Question 11, assume E(X)/μ is a positive dollar amount.

Critical Thinking Imagine you are an athlete running a race.  Please answer each of the following: 1. Name at least one action during your race that is being controlled by the Somatic Nervous System (SNS). (2 pts)  2. Name at least one action during your race that is controlled by the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). (2 pts) 3. Which branch is more active during your race, sympathetic or parasympathetic?  Explain your answer. (4 pts)

Using the following table, Calculate the expected value/mean, E(X)/μ. Try to show work/steps. You can leave your answer uncalculated if you want, as long as your steps/answer is clear. Formula: E(X) = μ =  Σ x • P(x)  A renter has minor damage to their apartment and their landlord is attempting to take their security deposit. Due to taking pictures at move-in and right before moving out, most trials are ruled in favor of the renter.

There are ten musicians at a concert. Six only play instruments and four only sing. Would this musicians/problem be a good candidate for Bernoulli trials? (YES/NO) Why?

What is P(High BP ⋃ Heart Disease)?    Definition: ⋃: or High Blood Pressure (BP) and  Heart Disease High BP / Heart Disease Heart Disease No Heart Disease High BP .30 .20 No High BP .20 .30

Describe the trichromatic theory of color vision and explain (don’t just state the weakness, explain why it is a weakness for this theory!!!) major weakness of this theory.

Look back at the previous question about the plastic disk spun on an axle by an electric motor. If that disk has a mass of 225 g and has an 18 cm radius, what torque is required from the motor to achieve the angular acceleration you found? The moment of inertia for a disk about center is ½MR2. Show your work or explain your reasoning.

What group of medications is given to relieve a patient’s preoperative anxiety? 

A 1750 kg car drives around a flat 190 m radius circular track at 24 m/s. Draw a “side view” force diagram for this situation. Be sure to label all forces correctly. Clearly draw your diagram with forces labeled on your paper.  What is the magnitude of the centripetal net force on the car? Show your work or explain your reasoning.

What medication blocks parasympathetic nervous impulses?
