Each of 100 laboratory rats has available both plain water and a mixture of water and caffeine in their cages. After 24 hours, t

wo measures were recorded for each rat: the amount of caffeine the rat consumed, X, and the rat's blood pressure, Y. The correlation between X and Y was 0.428. Which of the following conclusions is justified on the basis of this study?
A. The correlation between X and Y in the population of rats is also 0.428
B. If the rats stop drinking the water/caffeine mixture, this would cause a reduction in their blood pressure.
C. About 18 percent of the variation in blood pressure can be explained by a linear relationship between blood pressure and caffeine consumed.
D. Rats with lower blood pressure do not like the water/caffeine mixture as much as do rats with higher blood pressure.
E. Since the correlation is not very high, the relationship between the amount of caffeine consumed and blood pressure is not linear.

Answer:

C. About 18 percent of the variation in blood pressure can be explained by a linear relationship between blood pressure and caffeine consumed.

Explanation:

Here, r = 0.428

∴ We can say it will give a positive curve, as 0.428 indicates it is a positive correlation.

Though the amount of correlation is low, still it is positive and more than 0.4

So, nearly about 18% of the variation in the blood pressure can be observed by the consumption of caffeine water. As consumption of caffeine water and blood pressure is both increasing so we can say that r= 0.428 will give a positive linear curve.

The antibiotic rifampin inhibits the bacterial RNA polymerase, preventing it from binding to the promoter region. This inhibits
VikaD [51]

Answer:

b. transcription

Explanation:

Transcription is the process by RNA is synthesized from DNA. It is carried out by RNA Polymerase enzyme which uses DNA as template. It builds new RNA strand in 5' to 3' direction from the template strand. A gene to be transcribed has a promoter region in front of it. RNA Polymerase is required to bind to this region to begin transcription. Once it binds to this region, the two DNA strands separate locally starting the process of transcription.

Rifampin inhibits RNA transcription by inhibiting bacterial DNA dependent RNA Polymerase. It binds to the beta sub unit of RNA Polymerase which does not allow it to properly bind to the promoter region thus halting transcription process.

Amoeba move by extending their cytoplasm to form a(n) Or false foot
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Pseudopods

Explanation:

Amoeba move by extending their cytoplasm to form pseudopods on the surface of mud or soil. The pseudopodia are formed by forward streaming of endoplasm forming a protuberance. The endoplasm then converts to ectoplasm which stiffens the pseudopodium. More cytoplasm flows into the pseudopodium with the result that the organism gains a new position.

kipiarov [429]
Diploid cell. In meiosis I, the cell undergoes cell division process that is more likely has the similar procedures that mitosis undergoes. The cell produced is called the diploid cell which has the complete 48 strands of chromosomes within it. However, after the mitosis II takes place, the cell produced is called a haploid cell which has only 24 chromosomes instead of 48.
