Descriptive statistics summarize and describe the characteristics
of a sample, while inferential statistics use data from a sample to make
predictions or inferences about the population from which the sample was drawn.

Biochemistry
Glycolysis is a metabolic process that occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
The process is central to the conversion of glucose into energy in the form of
adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and is a fundamental part of cellular respiration.
1. Cytoplasm: Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. The cytoplasm
is the fluid-filled space between the cell membrane and the nucleus (and other
organelles in eukaryotes) where various metabolic reactions occur. This process
involves a series of enzymatic reactions that break down one molecule of glucose
into two molecules of pyruvate, yielding two net molecules of ATP and two
molecules of NADH (a reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) along
with some other byproducts.
2. Mitochondrion: Although glycolysis does not occur in the mitochondrion, the
mitochondrion plays a crucial role in the subsequent stages of glucose
metabolism. After glycolysis, the pyruvate molecules produced in the cytoplasm
can be transported into the mitochondria, where they are further processed in
the citric acid cycle (also known as the Krebs cycle or TCA cycle) and the
electron transport chain to produce more ATP.

PathologyThe expansion of the marrow space due to increased hematopoiesis can lead to resorption of the outer cortical bone and the formation of new bone, resulting in the characteristic "crew cut" appearance on X-rays. This appearance is due to the trabecular pattern of the skull becoming more prominent as the outer layer is resorbed.

E. coli O157:H7 is the most commonly identified serotype of EHEC and is associated with outbreaks related to the consumption of inadequately cooked ground beef, milk, and vegetables. It produces Shiga-like toxins, which can cause hemolytic uremic syndrome.
