Consider the C# method below for determining whether a given list of code words satisfies the prefix property. Note that there is a logical error in this method. Also note that the StartsWith method determines whether its parameter is a prefix of the invoking string; for example, “10110”.StartsWith(“101”) returns true, but “101”.StartsWith(“10110”)} returns false, and “11010”.StartsWith(“101”) returns false. public bool hasPrefixProperty(List code) { for(int i = 0; i < code.Count; i++) { for(int j = 0; j < code.Count; j++) { if (code.StartsWith(code)) { return true; } } } return false; } (a) (10 points) Explain and fix the logical error in the hasPrefixProperty method. In all subsequent questions, assume that this error has been fixed. (b) (20 points) Find a reasonable estimate for the best-case time-complexity of the StartsWith method of the string class called in the method above. You do not need to write code, but you can if it helps you explain your answer. (c) (10 points) What is the best-case scenario for the hasPrefixProperty method? (d) (10 points) Find a good estimate for the best-case time-complexity of the hasPrefixProperty method. (e) (15 points) Find a good upper bound for the worst-case time-complexity of the the StartsWith method. You do not need to write code, but you can if it helps you explain your answer. (f) (20 points) Find a good upper bound for the worst-case time-complexity of the the hasPrefixProperty method. You do not need to find the exact worst-case time-complexity here, but try not to give an unreasonably large upper bound. (g) (20 points) Suggest how the hasPrefixProperty method could be modified to improve its worst-case time-complexity.

Paragraph 3: Hepatic ketogenesis (KG) & gluconeogenesis (GNG) during starvation. First, describe the hormonal and biochemical conditions that predominate in the liver during starvation. Then, describe the processes of hepatic KG and GNG in terms of incoming circulating fuels and the inputs and outputs of specific metabolic pathways, including TCA cycle metabolites.
