CHAPTER 6: EFFICIENT DIVERSIFICATION 1.E(rP) = (0.5 16%) + (0.4 10%) + (0.10 6%) = 12.6% 2.a.The mean return should be less than the value computed in the spreadsheet. The fund’s return is 5% lower in a recession‚ but only 3% higher in a boom. The variance of returns should be greater than the value in the spreadsheet‚ reflecting the greater dispersion of outcomes in the three scenarios. b.Calculation of mean return and variance for the stock fund: (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) (F) (G) Scenario Probability

BIOLOGY Biology is the study of life -- life in all of its grandeur. From the very small algae to the very large elephant‚ life has a certain wonder about it. With that in mind‚ how do we know if something is living? Is a virus alive or dead? What are the characteristics of life? These are all very important questions with equally important answers. Characteristics of Life Living tings include both the visible worlds of animals and plants as well as the invisible world of bacteria and viruses.On

Biology 1010 is a course that introduces students to the basic biological phenomena in all living organisms. It focuses on the different molecular levels of organization‚ heredity in evolution‚ genetics and reproduction. Through this course‚ I was able to master three essential concepts such as Mendel’s Law of Segregation‚ enzymes‚ and photosynthesis. Gregor Mendel was an Augustinian monk that argued that parental traits are passed on to their offspring discrete “heritable factors”. Heritable factors

AP Biology Study Guide Chapter 11 1. Categorize chemical signals in terms of the proximity of the communicating cells. Local signaling – a. Paracrine signaling – a secreting cell acts on nearby target cells by discharging molecules of a local regulator (a growth factor‚ for example) into the extracellular fluid. b. Synaptic signaling – a nerve cell releases neurotransmitter molecules into a synapse‚ stimulating the target cell. Long distance signaling- c. Hormonal signaling – specialized

Chapter 3 3. Before the industrial revolution the cottage industry was an industry that was centered in self-sufficient rural households. After the industrial revolutions production moved to urban factories where production was more efficient and on a larger scale. Advances in technology such as the advent of the steam power brought about specialized factories that drastically improved the productivity of the workers. 4. If the cost of producing a good for a household is below the market price
