Answer:

In humans we go through Lactic Acid Fermination

Explanation:

It is important because after glycolysis we have the elctron carrier NAD+ reduced to NADH and we cant continue glycolysis until we have NADH back to NAD+ so all lactic acid fermintation does it removed the electron and allow glycolysis to continue. It should be noted that fermintation occurs when there is no oxygen / not enough to continue cellular respiration so we rely on glycolysis to produce very little ATP while oxygen is replenished,

Newsweek in 1989 reported that 60% of young children have blood lead levels that could impair their neurological development. As

Kamila [148]

Answer:

The answer is 83.38%.

Explanation:

The probability of young children having blood levels that impair their neurological development is given as 60% in the question. To find the probability of at least 5 children out of 10 in a sample having said blood levels, we need to use the binomial probability.

n represents the total number of children in the sample so n = 10 and p is the probability of the children having blood levels causing the problem which is 60% so p = 0.6.

We want the probability of it being observed for 5 or more children and that is $P(x\geq 5)$ . If we subtract the $P( x\leq 4)$ from 1, which is the probability of not observing the condition in 5 or more children, we will have the $P(x\geq 5)$ .

$1 - P(x\leq 4) = 1 - pbinom(4, 10, 0.6)$ which are the probability range in the function, the sample size and the probability of observing the condition respectively.

The result is 1 - 0.1662 = 0.8338 which means that the probability that is asked is 83.38%.

I hope this answer helps.
