Which of the following organelles does not receive proteins by posttranslational import of proteins synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes?

Consider the last argument you had with a friend or family member. What was the argument about? How was it resolved? Briefly summarize this argument (1-2 sentences). Then pretend you had to write a paper about this argument instead, with your friend/family member as your audience. Using the same argument structure you are planning to use for the research paper, write a brief outline of this argument (1 sentence per paragraph). For example, if you had a fight last week with your little sister over whose turn it was to feed the dog, then you would do this:1) Write 1-2 sentences about that argument (what happened in real life).2) Write a brief outline of how you would write a paper arguing to her instead, using  Classical, Rogerian, or Toulmin. Fill in what each paragraph would talk about:1. Hook or Full Introduction…2. 3.4.5.6.(you’ll have as many paragraphs as needed for the argument type)Conclusion

a property is expected to have Net Operating Income of $100,000 in the first year. The NOI is expected to increase by 5% each year thereafter. The appraised value of the property is currently $1.25 Million and the lender is willing to make a $1,125,000 participation loan with a contract interest rate of 5.5%. The loan will be amortized with monthly payments over a 20 year life. In addition to the regular mortgage payments, the lender will receive 50% of the NOI In EXCESS of $100,000each year until the loan is repaid. The lender will also receive 50% of any increase in the value of the property.  Assume that the appraiser will estimate the value of the property in Year 3 by dividing the NOI of year 4 by an 8 percent Cap Rate. Calculate the cost to the borrower (which is also the cost to the lender) if the property is held for 3 years.
