Assume that the fasting blood level of a lipid is normally distributed in the population of people who do not have disease "x." there is a smaller distribution curve of the fasting blood levels of this lipid, which also is normal in shape, for the population of persons who have disease "x," and the curve overlaps the upper end (right side) of the curve for people without the disease. draw distribution curves for the diseased and non-diseased populations and discuss the effects upon sensitivity and specificity of setting the cut point for disease and non-disease at various positions on the two overlapping curves.

Four types of motile cells in human body?

The dna in a cell’s nucleus encodes proteins that are eventually targeted to every membrane and compartment in the cell, as well as proteins that are targeted for secretion from the cell. for example, consider these two proteins: phosphofructokinase (pfk) is an enzyme that functions in the cytoplasm during glycolysis. insulin, a protein that regulates blood sugar levels, is secreted from specialized pancreatic cells. assume that you can track the cellular locations of these two proteins from the time that translation is complete until the proteins reach their final destinations.for each protein, identify its targeting pathway: the sequence of cellular locations in which the protein is found from when translation is complete until it reaches its final (functional) destination. (note that if an organelle is listed in a pathway, the location implied is inside the organelle, not in the membrane that surrounds the organelle.)
