In a Study of Left- and Right-Handers' Reaction Times to Tones

question 12

Essay

In a study of left- and right-handers' reaction times to tones delivered to the right ear,
the right-handers' reaction times were approximately normally distributed with a
mean of 210 milliseconds and standard deviation of 40 milliseconds. The mean
reaction time for left-handers was 240 ms.
a) Sketch a normal distribution that describes right-handers' reaction times, and
locate the mean reaction time for left-handers in this distribution.
b) What proportion of right-handers reaction times would be faster than the mean
reaction time for left-handers?


Definitions:

Myosin Myofilaments

Protein filaments in muscle cells responsible for the contraction and generation of force.

G-Actin

G-Actin (Globular Actin) is a monomeric form of actin that polymerizes to form F-actin filaments, crucial for muscle contraction and cell mobility.

Cross-Bridges

Molecular links between actin and myosin filaments in muscle fibers that are responsible for muscle contraction.

Incomplete Tetanus

A condition where muscle fibers produce almost peak tension during rapid cycles of contraction and relaxation.
