What does the margin of error tell us about a sample taken from a large population? How does the confidence level for a sample outcome differ from the sample’s margin of error?
The margin of error is a numerical value that expresses or estimates the likelihood of error in an experiment’s results. Thus, it can somehow account for the statistical significance of a result. If it is smaller, then the likelihood of error is also small, making the results more credible. Smaller sample sizes from a large population generally have a larger margin of error while larger ...

Sociolinguistics is one of the most interesting aspects of linguistics in a society. This is perhaps because it is the study of linguistics that takes on a broader perspective on linguistics. By assessing the impact that the society has on the linguistics of a certain group of people, sociolinguistics is able to draw significant conclusions regarding the use of language in a community, and the social variables that determine this use of language such as religion, socioeconomic status, regional dialects, speech communities and age, just to name a few (Coupland, Sarangi and Candlin 32). Through the analysis of these ...

Introduction

Exom sequencing is also known as whole exom sequencing (WES). This sequencing technique is used to sequence all the expressed genes in a genome also called as exom. It is one of the most widely used targeted sequencing methods. The exom which is the protein coding region of the human genome consists of less than 2% of the genetic code. This region is responsible for containing more than 85% of known disease-related variants. Thus, whole exom sequencing is a cost-effective alternative to whole genome sequencing (WGS).
This technique is efficient in identifying coding variants across a wide range of ...

DNA tracing has been a helpful way of identifying an unknown person. As a matter of fact, this advantage is being used in forensic investigations which will completely recognize the identity of an individual when being logged in the database. However, this brings about risk in the privacy and confidentiality of an individual. Therefore, DNA database should not be used for commercial purposes.
A DNA profile,which is stored in database, is not only used to identify a single individual, but it also allows to track close relatives using the information which can be located in a single DNA ...

According to Mendenhall and Beaver (2011), descriptive statistics is the analysis of data that helps to summarize, show and describe data in a way that is more meaningful. In this regards, it provides a concise summary of data. This data can be graphically or numerically summarized. Using graph or pie charts in descriptive statistics helps one interpret data collected in a much easier way than providing the same data in a wide amount of raw data. Descriptive statistics use mean, median and mode as measures of central tendency and use standard deviation and variance as measures of dispersion.
Inferential ...

Discussion 5: Evidence Identification
Amanda: Eyewitness identification is not the ‘nail in the coffin’ piece of evidence most people would think because of it is highly subjective. There is a multitude of intangibles that need be considered when confronted with an eyewitness identification. People have prejudices hidden below the surface that play out on their everyday actions that they do not control or realize. Older people may have prejudices against teens or children or rich versus poor or a race against another race. You may not know what kind of day the person providing the eyewitness testimony had, whether ...

Using people’s DNA for finding the suspect of a crime has long been into practice, and it has helped the police find a lot of criminals easily. While on the one hand, DNA testing can find the real criminals behind a scene, it can also help to clear an innocent person of the charges. However the concern strikes in when the same DNA profiles and data are all stored in a DNA database. This is a concerning matter because DNA and information can be used for threatening people’s privacy and damaging their rights and well as those ...

Introduction

Tooth development involves a complex process whereby teeth are formed from embryonic cells, and then eventually mature after erupting as evident in the mouth (Eckhardt, Jágr, Pataridis, & Mikšík, 2014). The development usually originates from mesoderm and ectoderm. At the ectoderm found in the oral cavity, there is the development of enamel and other tissues also come from associated mesenchyme. All teeth don’t develop at the same time, but rather in stages (Eckhardt, Jágr, Pataridis, & Mikšík, 2014). First buds are always observed in the region of anterior mandible, followed by anterior maxillary area then finally ...

Introduction

Statistics is a branch of mathematics, aimed at collecting and analyzing data via different methods such as analysis of variance, kurtosis, skewness or regression analysis. Nowadays, statistics helps processing data with a help of creating various charts that in turn help visualizing complex data sets. There are two major types of statistics, descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. Descriptive and inferential statistics require proper hypothesis formation and thus proper selection of the statistical tests that in turn have to be analyzed and interpreted successfully.

Descriptive Statistics

Descriptive statistics implies application of various coefficients that simplify process of data processing and aggregation (Trochim, ...

The use of free samples is one among many subtle marketing strategies used by fast food companies in the United States. Most fast food companies mainly use free samples when introducing new food products into the market. Usually, customers are not aware of how the new food products taste or smell, and the free samples, therefore, give them an opportunity to try them before buying them. Even though this marketing technique seems subtle and unobtrusive, of important to note is that it can create an instant demand for selected products. For instance, a free cookie sample to a child ...

When attempting to find trace amounts of an inorganic substance x-ray diffraction would be a valuable tool for discovering just what substances were present. It would not be the first choice according to various researchers, but it would be one of the least invasive as well as one of the least likely to destroy the sample. By using x-ray diffraction it is possible to differentiate between substances, making it easier to identify trace elements that can be found in crime scenes. X-ray diffraction is a valuable but slightly limited technique that is used by forensic science thanks to its ...

The analysis of data through the description, and summary of records in a meaningful manner so that the patterns may emerge from such information is known as a descriptive statistics (Investopedia, 2007). However, in certain circumstances, it does not allow data specialists to make conclusions beyond the information to be analyzed regarding any hypotheses that are being prepared.
The descriptive statistics enables one to make a characterization of data based on its properties (Baseline Help Center, 2016). Therefore, the main types of this statistic that can allow one to analyze business decisions are: variation such as standard deviation, range, ...

There are many aspects in the history of humankind that were considered fair and acceptable during the past. However, it was actually morally questionable when it is applied in a modern context. The realm of life insurance is one of those cases. In the past, practices regarding life insurance can be considered unethical; it can be considered a relief that the practice has grown to change for the better over time to the point that it complies more or less with the standards nowadays. An in-depth analysis about the topic was made by Zelizer in her journal article entitled ...

Regarding the ethical culture change, the lesson is that the process should follow three key steps of culture diagnosis, intervention, and evaluation. On ethical culture diagnosis, the lesson is that it should entail auditing both informal and formal systems. It should also consider the peoples’ assumptions. On the other hand, the intervention should involve both formal and informal systems change and could take long; 6 to 15 years. Also, intervention entails challenges in changing the informal systems; hence need to overcome them for success. Finally, there should be culture change evaluation over a long period. The evaluation should apply ...

The tests are used to diagnose traits and diseases, assess the severity of a given disease, and determine gene changes that can be inherited from one generation to another, determining medical treatments and gene changes that have a higher risk of causing a ...

In an article about hip hop music and its intersection with jazz, Jared Pauley writes that both genres have often flirted with each other. Over the years, hip hop artists have utilized the flavor of jazz music through sampling. In the 1980s to the mid-1990s, hip hop acts "took jazz samples to the top of the charts while others worked directly with respected jazz musicians. With the new millennium, this trend continued" (1). One artist that has continued the trend is Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick Lamar is an emcee that has been on the scene for a number of years, ...

“If it has ‘science’ in its name, it ain’t (Minnick).” Those words were said to this writer by the smartest person he ever knew personally, a man with PhDs in Mathematics and Physics, a true scientist. He went on to explain that science, if it is science, can be reduced to mathematics and then can predict. “Science can generate electricity or flatten cities,” he said. The problem, of course, is that whenever one deals with the “soft sciences,” political science or economics (the dismal science) or sociology or history or any of the disciplines that are housed in ...

Chromatography is a laboratory method or technique to separate various compounds such as inorganic or organic substances for further analysis, evaluation or testing (Chavan et al. 283).

Are Parisians really rude or arrogant or is this another stereotype?

Introduction
One of the critical issues that affect the study of human behavior is the way different people understand the responses given and give an accurate report on their findings. Various individuals have engaged in numerous anthropological and ethnographic researches in attempts to understand why some communities behave in certain ways. A widely held serotype is that Parisians are rude and arrogant and they often show a significant level of dislike to non-Parisians. However, this can be treated as individual’s perception, and researchers would want to confirm whether such stereotype is true. Some individuals tend to place judgment ...
