The answer is as follows:

  1. After swallowing, the gastroesophageal sphincter opens to allow food from the esophagus into the stomach.

    • Explanation: The gastroesophageal sphincter is a ring of muscle that controls the passage of food from the esophagus into the stomach.

  2. During the enterogastric reflex, acid secretion in the stomach is inhibited.

    • Explanation: The enterogastric reflex is a physiological process that inhibits gastric motility and secretion when the small intestine is distended or irritated.

  3. The enzymes that digest lipids are called lipases.

    • Explanation: Lipases are enzymes that break down fats into fatty acids and glycerol.

  4. Liver cells are more properly referred to as hepatocytes.

    • Explanation: Hepatocytes are the main functional cells of the liver, responsible for a wide range of metabolic, detoxification, and synthetic activities.

A car rental agency rents 180 cars per day at a rate of 39 dollars per day. For each 1 dollar increase in the daily rate, 4 fewer cars are rented. (a) If x is the number of cars rented in a day, and p is the daily rental price per car, what is the price-demand equation (assuming it is linear)? p= (b) What is the daily revenue function for the agency? (Hint: Revenue is the product of the price per item and the number of items.) R(x)= (c) How many cars should be rented to maximize daily revenue? cars (d) What is the maximum daily revenue for the agency? (e) What daily rental price should the agency charge to maximize daily revenue?

The accompanying scatterplot shows the number of passengers departing from an airport month by month since the start of 1997 to May of 2006. Time is shown as years since 1990, with fractional years used to represent each month. (Thus, June of 1997 is 7.5 -halfway through the 7th year after 1990.) The regression and the residuals plot are also given in the accompanying display. Complete parts a) through g). d) Would you use this model to predict the numbers of passengers in 2010 (YearsSince1990=20)? Explain. A. No, because that would extrapolate too far from the years that were observed. B. Yes, because the year 2010 is close enough to the last observed value to be a safe estimate. C. Yes, because the value of R^2 is large enough to safely predict the number of passengers. D. No, because air traffic is too random to predict for any time period. e) There's a point near the middle of this time span with a large negative residual. Can you explain this outlier? A. The negative residual is September 2001. Air traffic was artificially low following the attacks on 9/11. B. The negative residual is January 1998. The extremely high ticket prices that year caused air traffic to decline. C. The negative residual is July 1999. There is no apparent cause for the decline in air traffic. D. The negative residual is March 2004. A boom in the economy was causing higher than normal air traffic as more people were traveling abroad. f) The data has been updated through 2016 and plotted on a new scatterplot, shown to the right. If the model for the data through 2006 had been used to predict the number of passengers in 2010, how well would it have worked? Why?

Is the selection below a permutation, a combination, or neither? Explain your reasoning. A father orders ice cream (chocolate, vanilla, or peach) for each of his 5 children. Choose the correct answer below. A. As a child getting vanilla is different from the same child getting peach, the order in the selection process is vital. Also, two children can both request the same type of ice cream. So, there are no repetitions in the selection process. Therefore, the selection is a permutation. B. As a child getting vanilla is different from the same child getting peach, the order in the selection process is irrelevant. Also, two children can both request the same type of ice cream. So, there will be repetition in the selection process. Therefore, the selection is neither a combination nor a permutation. C. As a child getting 4 nilla is different from the same child getting peach, the order in the selection process is irrelevant. Also, two children can both request the same type of ice cream. So, there are no repetitions in the selection process. Therefore, the selection is a combination. D. As a child getting vanilla is different from the same child getting peach, the order in the selection process is irrelevant. Also, two children can both request the same type of ice cream. So, there are repetitions in the selection process. Therefore, the selection is a permutation.
