It is time to relate the rules and concepts of probability to the practice of statistics and experimentation.
Sampling distributions provide the link between probabilities and data. Recall that the sum of the
probabilities of all possible outcomes for a certain event must equal one. Because the variables
representing or describing a certain event can take on a range of values, the frequency of each of those
values forms a distribution of possible outcomes, each with its own probability of occurrence. View
“Central Limit Theorem” (media piece). What is the significance of the frequency histogram illustrated by
dice and numbers in “Dice Combination?” How does this relate to the central limit theorem provided in the
media? Roll the dice, what were your odds? HINT: Click on Dice Combination in the media. If you roll the
dice, you have to count the total number of two dice. There are two ways to check on your results (Refer
to the instructions by clicking Instructions); click on the dice combinations and odds given in the frequency
histogram and the table or click the red bar at the right side of the media piece. Explore the basic principle
of probability through this media piece. Utilize the quiz to ensure that you understand these basic
principles. What is the significance of probability in judgment and decision making in important aspects of
health care? Explain your response with an applicable example.

Details:
In the Topic 1 Assignment, you compared the BMI values from Data Set 1 (in the appendix of the
textbook) from a perspective of measuring the center and variation of the data. Chapters 5 and 6 in the
textbook allow you to use more sophisticated tools to estimate the parameters of a population.
Refer to Data Set 1 in Appendix B and use the sample data with Excel and/or SPSS to accomplish the
following:
Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean body mass index for men.
Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean body mass index for women.
Compare and interpret the results. It is known that men have a mean weight that is greater than the mean
weight for women, and the mean height of men is greater than the mean height of women. Do men also
have a mean body mass index that is greater than the mean body mass index of women?
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
This assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using the rubric to grade the assignment;
therefore, students should review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the
assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.
You are not required to submit this assignment to Turnitin.
BIO 500 GC Week 5 Hypothesis Testing Latest
Details:
Chapter 8 of the textbook explains how to make inferences from two samples using the process of
hypothesis testing.
Refer to Data Set 1 in Appendix B and test the claim that the mean body mass index (BMI) of men is
equal to the mean BMI of women.
Use Excel and/or SPSS to perform the hypothesis test.
Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed
populations. Do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal.
Use “Example Hypothesis Test of Treatment for Bipolar Depression” on page 391 of the textbook as a
guide for your test.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
You are not required to submit this assignment to Turnitin.
BIO 500 GC Week 6 Effects of Heredity and Environment on IQ Latest

BIO 500 GC Week 7 Variance Analysis Latest
Details:
Chapter 11 of the textbook covers “Analysis of Variance”, however the authors state that “Testing for
Equality of Three or More Population Means” might be a better chapter title.
Use Excel or SPSS to perform the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) for the data in “From Data to
Decision” on page 565 of the textbook.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
You are not required to submit this assignment to Turnitin.
BIO 500 GC Week 8 BMI Statistical Report Latest
Details:
Write a 750-1000 word statistical laboratory report using the guidelines in the assigned article, “How to
Write a Statistical Report.” This statistical report is not meant to be an APA report or a multiple-page
scholarly treatise. The goal is that you become familiar with the formal report format that you will use
whenever you are reporting statistical analysis. The report format includes the following sections:
Abstract, Purpose, Methods, and Results.
Assume that you are asked to perform an exploratory data analysis in which the emphasis is to compare
the difference between the body mass index (BMI) values of men and women. Use Excel and/or SPSS to
create reports and run analyses on the data for the Data Set 1 in Appendix B of your textbook.
Assume you are a biostatistics analyst and you received a request from the director of the nutrition
program to perform the analysis. The director is developing an obesity program for the state and has
obtained the data set from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). Because it has been some
time since the director has had a statistics course, any points that would make your analysis easier to
understand would be appreciated.
Generate appropriate histograms or box plots. Find appropriate statistics that will help to understand the
data set. Are there any notable features? Are there any outliers? Describe the key elements of center,
variation, distribution, and outliers.
A minimum of three scholarly references are required.
While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and
in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be
found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
This assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using the rubric to grade the assignment;
therefore, students should review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the
assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.
You are required to submit this assignment to Turnitin. Refer to the directions in the Student Success

BIO 500 GC Week 8 Rank Correlation Latest
Details:
Question 1. Use Excel or SPSS to complete Exercise 1 in the Cumulative Review Exercises on page
485 in the textbook.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected. Due Tuesday NOV 29th
Question 2. Chapter 11 of the textbook covers “Analysis of Variance”, however the authors state that
“Testing for Equality of Three or More Population Means” might be a better chapter title. Due December
6th
Question 3 Use Excel or SPSS to perform the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) for the data in
“From Data to Decision” on page 565 of the textbook.
APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
Question 4 For the following assignment, use the Rank Correlation that was demonstrated in Chapter
12 of the textbook (page 566). Utilizing Excel or SPSS:
Use a rank correlation coefficient to test for a correlation between two variables.
Use a significance level of α=0.05.
The new health care program in the United States makes provisions for capitation programs where health
care insurers work with clinical facilities to perform risk analysis of patients to determine the cost of
providing care. The following assignment might be used to assess how much a person smokes.
When nicotine is absorbed by the body, cotinine is produced. A measurement of cotinine in the body is
therefore a good indicator of how much a person smokes. The reported number of cigarettes smoked per
day and the measured amounts of cotinine (in ng/ml) are provided. (The values are from randomly
selected subjects in a National Health Examination Survey.) Is there a significant linear correlation? How
would you measure the cotinine level in the body? Explain the result.
