I am determining how effective a Drug is at reducing inflammation in individuals infected with a virus. the serum levels of antibody are measured as a measure of inflammation (less antibodies means less inflammation which decreases virus mortality) in 30 people given placebo, 30 people given 1 unit of the drug, and 30 people given 2 units of the drug. I would like to determine what levels of the drug are effective, and if there are sex-specific effects.
What are the dependent and independent variables in this experiment?
age _________
sex __________
antibody level _____________
treatment ___________
Food rheologists study different forms of foods and how the form of a food affects how full we feel when we eat it. One study prepared portions of apple juice and apples with the same number of calories. Half of the subjects were fed apples on one day followed by apple juice on a later day; the other half received the apple juice followed by the apples. After eating, the subjects were asked about how full they felt. Is this an experiment? Why or why not?
Hand written please. An investigator wants to assess the association between manganese and blood pressure in pregnant women (side note: this is a study I am currently working on). The study plans to enroll 100 pregnant women. During the third trimester, each participant will have their manganese level and systolic blood pressure measured. Identify the type of study design and briefly describe its strengths and weaknesses.

- How profitable are different sectors of the stock market? One way to answer such a question is to examine profit as a percentage of stockholder equity. A random sample of 32 retail stocks was studied for x1, profit as a percentage of stockholder equity. The result was x1 = 13.2. A random sample of 33 utility (gas and electric) stocks was studied for x2, profit as a percentage of stockholder equity. The result was x2 = 10.0. Assume ?1 = 4.2 and ?2 = 2.6. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some cases, this choice will increase the P-value by a small amount or increase the length of the confidence interval, thereby making the answer slightly more "conservative." (a) Let ?1 represent the population mean profit as a percentage of stockholder equity for retail stocks, and let ?2 represent the population mean profit as a percentage of stockholder equity for utility stocks.

Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between lemon imports and crash fatality rates? Do the results suggest that imported lemons cause car fatalities?
