Write a method to return the value of the difference between the highest and lowest values in an array list. Do not use any built in methods to find the maximum and minimum values directly (i.e. search the values in the list to identify the min and max).

This substance, present in the fungal cell wall, gives structure and rigidity to mold colonies:

A soil has the following grain size distribution. Determine its AASHTO Classification: Sieve Size        Percent Finer #4                          58.0 #10                       54.2 #20                      51.9 #40                      49.5 #60                      45.8 #100                   31.9 #200                    6.7  

A patient presented to the Emergency Department complaining of abdominal pain, nausea and diarrhea. The patient reported no travel outside of the US. He did report a puritic rash on his foot a few weeks prior.  A stool specimen was collected and the MLS identified hookworm eggs in the sample. Given the above information, which hookworm is the most likely etiological agent associated with the patient’s condition?

Generally, the minimum Factor of Safety with respect to strength that is considered acceptable for the design of stable slope is ___________.

What is the correct technical term that describes the code provided in the first IF statement in the mystery method.

A 5000 Hz sound wave is emitted by a stationary source. This sound wave reflects from an object moving at 3.50 m/s toward the source. What is the frequency of the wave reflected by the moving object as detected by a detector at rest near the source?

Including the original call to the mystery method, how many times is the method called?

A sound wave travels twice as far in neon (Ne) as it does in krypton (Kr) in the same time interval. Both neon and krypton can be treated as ideal monoatomic gases. The atomic mass of neon is 20.2 u and the atomic mass of krypton is 83.3 u. The temperature of krypton is 293 K. What is the temperature of neon?   (The masses can remain with the mass unit that is given in the problem – you do not need to convert.)

A specific numeric value is often called a(n) ____.
