Summary Introduction
To investigate:
The reason for whether the collection of data regarding race and ethnicity from all citizens is important or not and the other piece of information that is more useful to the government.
Introduction:
The Civil Rights Act (in 1964) acts as a milestone of civil rights and labor law in the United States. This act prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, race, religion, color, or national origin.

I just want someone to look over my answers to make sure I am calculating correctly. I am using the Hardy-Weinberg Equlibrium to figure out the answers to the questions.
Thank you,
For each of the following, identify which of the three basic principles of the Belmont Report is being violated:
A researcher recruits poor minorities to be participants in a risky experiment.
A researcher tricks people into participating by suggesting that they might win a contest.
A researcher knows that people will feel ashamed after one of the study.
why is the mixed method a better methodology for research such as finding health disparities in a certain health issue?

- Being heterozygous for Sickle Cell allows a person to be resistant to malaria but comes at the cost of long term health problems like cardiac arrest and stroke. Being homozygous for Sickle Cell results in reduced life span. Which of the following is the least likely reason this trait persists in the population? the trait is recessive the trait does not harm carriers the trait generally has the most impact on patients post reproductive maturity the benefit is greater than the costarrow_forwardA UNF research team was exploring populations of worms on Greenwich and Half Moon Islands. They counted the number of worms on each island and recorded the information below. Greenwich Island AA: 42 Aa: 108 aa: 83 Half Moon Island -AA: 57 Aa: 21 aa: 49 What is the dominant allele frequency for Greenwich Island? Retain 3 decimal places.arrow_forwardPart A: What is the frequency of the heterozygous genotype if the homozygous genotype frequencies are 0.1385 (BB) and 0.5897 (bb)?

- The term Asian American refers to people of Asian descent who trace their roots to more than 20 different countries in Asia, including Cambodia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. Given below are the leading causes of death for Asian Americans and other minority groups in the U.S. With this data, compare the leading causes of deaths of Filipinos and answer the following questions. 1. Is race/ethnicity a significant factor affecting these populations’ mortality? Howso? 2. What other considerations should be included in the discussion of the leadingcauses of deaths for these populations?arrow_forwardThis is the information collected by mission doctors in a remote isolated tribal village. Local people displayed the following, in the following numbers: 104 were not resistant to malaria and did not have the sickle cell anemia; 18 had the sickle cell anemia; 33 were resistant to malaria and did not have the sickle cell anemia. Determine the allele frequencies in this population. I am only asking for allele frequencies. Show your calculations Thank youarrow_forwardIf only the first five loci listed in Table 1 of the assigned paper (Forensics, DNA Fingerprinting, and CODIS) were analyzed, what would be the statistical probability of finding that particular genotype among people other than Suspect B?

- Mrs. O’Grady wants to know if doing labs with her science class really helps them learn the material better. She decides to test this out in her two 6th grade science classes. In both classes she gives the same amount and type of notes and homework, but in one class she does labs and the other class she doesn’t. At the end of the unit, she gives both classes the same unit test and compares the class averages.what is the Independent variable: what is the Dependent variable:what is the Hypothesis:what is the Control group:what is the Experimental group:what is the Constants:what is the Possible threats to accuracy of results?arrow_forwardHow has the study of human biology and variation in this class changed how you think about race and ethnicity? Try to touch on the many sides of this complex prompt: society and history, perceptions from other people, individual cultural identity, biology, patterns of human variation. You may cite external sources for academic or social references, or just share your own thoughts in your response.arrow_forwardChoose a public health problem: Maternal health among African American You decide you want to research this problem! Please come up with a research question to guide a research study addressing the problem you have chose. In your own words, guide me through the nine specific steps you would take to develop your study (The nine step research process are: what population, develop the research question, observational or experimental studies, what research design is best, pick your variables and measurements carefully, decide on a sampling technique, implement with fidelity, analyze the data, and disseminate the findings.)arrow_forward
- What is the topic in statistics that is the most difficult ? Please be specific here. Saying “I don’t understand anything” or “I don’t understand module 7” are very vague and difficult for people to help with. Instead, try and narrow it down to something like “I am struggling computing Cohen’s d” or “I am struggling to determine whether we reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.”arrow_forwardHow would I number it on the graph to put the averages on therearrow_forwardWhat is the difference between quantitative and qualitative analysis?
