A prevalence survey conducted from January 1 through December 31, 2012, identified 1,000 cases of schizophrenia in a city of 2 m

illion persons. The incidence rate of schizophrenia in this population is 5/100,000 persons each year. What percent of the 1,000 cases were newly diagnosed in 2012?

10% of 1,000 cases of schizophrenia were newly diagnosed in 2012

Explanation:

For every 100,000 people,

The incidence rate of schizophrenia = 5

There are 2,000,000 persons

2,000,000 / 100,000 = 20 * 5 = 100

So, there are 100 new cases of schizophrenia in the entire population

100 new cases / 1000 existing cases = .1 / 100

= 10%

Hence, 10% of 1,000 cases of schizophrenia were newly diagnosed in 2012.

The Precambrian Era is the least understood part of Earth history, yet it is arguably the most important. It began with the form
zhuklara [117]

Greenland has them; the intriguing Burgess shale (Cambrian); they use isotope dating to determine the ages of the rocks; Precambrian circumstances were similar to those on other worlds where life may have emerged.

This is further explained below.

<h3>How does understanding the Precambrian era enhance our chances of finding another planet that could one-day support life?</h3>

Generally, Precambrian rocks are generally exceedingly ancient. Greenland is one such site where scientists have been researching geology and geochronology (the age of the planet) for many years.

To identify whether a rock is of Precambrian origin, its age must be determined, and for such ancient rocks, scientists have developed isotopic dating techniques, which employ the rate at which one radioactive isotope decays into another, which is commonly measured in millions of years.

In conclusion, The Precambrian period spanned a very long time, yet all living organisms were single-celled. Multicellular creatures initially evolved in all their complexity during the Cambrian period

These Precambrian single-celled organisms, on the other hand, were capable of tolerating the harshest environmental conditions of the young Earth, such as scorching heat and gases that would be poisonous to most living things on Earth today, so understanding those early Precambrian conditions may shed light on life forms that could be found on other planets with similarly harsh environments.
