The family of drugs known as Lidocaine are popular local anesthetics. Lidocaine blocks transmission of pain by binding to neuron Na+ channels and preventing Na+ ions from being able to travel through the channels. Considering the information you have compiled above, hypothesize the effect lidocaine has on the rate of neuron depolarization. Be sure to discuss why this change to depolarization would be an effective way to block pain. For full credit, your answer should be in full sentences and clearly discuss how you arrived at this conclusion.

Suppose we will design a new deeply pipelined processor, for which we will have a branch-target buffer for the conditional branches only. Assume that the misprediction penalty is always four cycles and the buffer miss penalty is always three cycles. Assume a 80% hit rate, 90% accuracy, and 15% branch frequency. How much faster will the processor be with the branch-target buffer compared to the existing processor that has a fixed two-cycle branch penalty? Assume a base CPI without branch stalls is one.
