The estimated sample to be taken should be 9 lettuce plants/ roots to have the 95% level of confidence and within the 10% of population mean. If the population was distributed normally the sample size to be taken will decrease. As the population normally distributes the variance and standard deviation population means will decrease so less number of sample would be appropriate to give good estimates of disease severity to determine the disease epidemics. If the population of disease plants was clustered, then the sample size will increase because it will increase standard deviation and variance of the population which increases the size of the population.
The human sense of touch is known as the somatic or somatosensory system. The skin is the biggest and most complex organ in the somatosensory system.The somatosensory system permits the human body to experience pressure, texture, temperature, and pain, and to see the position and development of the body's muscles and joints.The receptor cells in the skin can be separated into three useful classifications: mechanoreceptors that sense pressure and surface, thermoreceptors that sense temperature, and nociceptors that sense pain. Thermoreceptors distinguish changes in temperature utilizing two sorts of receptor cells: warm and cold. Thus, thermoreceptors on the skin detects the temperature signal using two specific receptors cell: warm and cold.
12. _____ For a given population, confidence intervals constructed from larger samples tend to be narrower than those constructed from smaller samples. Which statement below best describes why this is true? (A) The variability of the sample mean is less for larger samples. (B) The z-value for larger samples tends to be more accurate. (C) The population variance is larger for large populations. (D) As the sample size increases, the z-value (or t-value) becomes smaller. A machine dispenses potato chips into bags that are advertised as containing one pound of product. To be on the safe side, the machine is supposed to be calibrated to dispense 16.07 ounces per bag, and from long time observation, the distribution of the fill-weights is known to be approximately normal and the process is known to have a standard deviation of 0.15 ounces.
Next, save the excel document with the extensions, '.xlsx' and 'csv'. When the saved 'xlsx' file is loaded into ArcMap, the attributes for data type 'text' has a length of 255, with allowable null values. The numeric data type 'double' has been populated with the precision as 15 and the scale as 6. It allows null values. The data type, 'date' is populated correctly and allows null value.
Unfortunately, if we want to know how many moves it will take to transfer 100 disks from pole A to pole B, we will first have to find the moves it takes to transfer 99 disks, 98 disks, and so on and so forth. Therefore the recursive pattern will not be much help in finding the time it would take to transfer all the disks.
FIGURE 1.7- A magnified view of a single lenslet shows a portion of an aberrated wavefront (red curve) passing through. If the wavefront had been flat (aberration-free), it would have focused to a point on the video sensor (CCD) on the lenslet's optic axis (yellow dot). Refractive errors distort the wavefront out of a plane, so a wavefront portion (red curve) enters the lenslet curved and tilted. The light will therefore be focused to another part (red dot). The dot will be shifted by an amount that is in direct proportion to the wavefront tilt.
I received 2.5 out of 3 possible points for this question. Based on the TA’s notes, it seems as though I lost ½ of a point for not saying that “more ddNTPs will result in shorter sequences”. However, in my answer, I did in fact say that increasing the ratio of ddNTPs to dNTPS will cause DNA sequencing to stop quickly, namely at the first few nucleotides if many ddNTPs are added. Because I included such information in my answer, and given the accuracy of the rest of my answer, I’m not sure why I lost ½ of a point and instead believe that I did not deserve to lose any points, or at least did not deserve to lose ½ of a point. In other words, although I believe this did not warrant any loss of points, I certainly believe it didn’t warrant a loss
Cells are rinsed with chilled PBS, scraped into chilled PBS, and then centrifuged at 200 × g for 4 min. Discard the supernatant. The cells are now ready for lysis or storing at -80 ℃ for future use.

The CSC consists of a sequence of four steps which are executed in sequence: \textit{(i)} Nodes use their maximum transmission power to connect to their neighboring nodes; \textit{(ii)} CC-links are established to increase connectivity; \textit{(iii)} The resulting topology from steps 1 and 2 are combined and we use topology control to select the routes towards the sink node that reduce the number of hops to reach the sink node.

An example of population can be a bowl containing 500 balls of which or it can be 8,000,000 patients. The method of random selection remains same for both kinds of populations. However, the sample size can differ. While doing random sample the large population can be contracted into subsets such as categorizing patients by the name of their hospitals, making a list of those hospitals, assigning numbers in sequence to each of them, figuring out the sample size. A random number generator can also be used to decide the sample size, for e.g. 50 out of 500.
The sample size increases affect the estimate. As the sample size increases, the margin of error decreases.
However there is no mention in the article if the sample is representative of an epidemiological sample, thus extending this cohort study to a multicentre trial would have empowered various aspects of the study, such as: 1) providing a more precise sample estimate which would more
My population size is children aged eleven to sixteen residing in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. I have employed a sample size of thirty male and thirty female students aged eleven to sixteen; I had chosen this sample size because I had identified a calculation which would be perfect on helping to have a range of participants and therefore I could have a good medium sized sample, my research indicated that the average pupils enrolled at a secondary school is roughly three point six million pupils, so if I divide it by six thousand, then that would equal sixty and later on I can multiply it by six thousand and represent my data on behalf of all pupils in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland and thus allowing my data to be more reliable and a better representation of eleven to sixteen residing in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.
Sample size determination is an important part of any research. Probable size of study should be considered, which is required to reach the study aims at the design phase. The figuring of a fitting sample size depends on a subjective decision of certain elements and occasionally crude approximate of others, and could as an outcome appear rather artificial (Whitley and Ball, 2002). Thus, there are foremost three key factors which should be taken into account in computation of a proper sample size (power and effect). The pro of utilizing a sample is that it is more commonsense and less expensive than gathering data from the populace. The peril of choosing a sample is that it is may not test may not enough mirror the practices, qualities, side effects, or convictions of the populace sufficiently mirror of population symptoms or beliefs (Polit and Hungler, 1999). Therefore, to decide a reasonable sample size by taking after equation was utilized to decide the sample size (AL Rifa 'y, 1998, Ayyub and Mccuen, 2003).
