A student measures the length of a glass rod five times and records the data as: a. 23.487 cm b. 23.493 cm c. 23.516 cm d. 23.50

1 cm e. 23.477 cm The labeled value of the glass rod is 23.490 cm. Calculate the percent error for all the data recorded by the student.

Percent error is calculated by the expression:

%error = |actual value - observed value| / actual value x 100

We calculate the error of the values as follows:

<span>a. 23.487 cm
% error = |</span><span>23.490  - 23.487| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
</span><span>
b. 23.493 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.493| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
<span>
c. 23.516 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.516| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.11%<span>

d. 23.501 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.501| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.05%<span>

e. 23.477 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.477| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.055%

Use the model to explain how celiac disease interrupts the normal transportation of energy and other nutrients from the digestiv
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

According to the model, the "villi" of small intestines is being damaged as an impact of celiac disease. Small intestines are responsible for absorption of nutrients and minerals from food, this occurs through villi, in case of damaged villi absorption is interfered, thus disturbing the digestive system. If the nutrients, minerals or vitamins are not being absorbed well by small intestines then they will be excreted out of the body and will not be transported to the blood and other areas, this would result in deficiency of minerals and vitamins  in blood that cause weakness.

In direct calorimetry, a person is placed in a large, water-insulated chamber. The chamber is kept at a constant temperature. Wh
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Although direct calorimetry is considered to be the most precise technique for the measurement of metabolic rate, construction of such a chamber that is large enough for doing exercise physiology research (or any research for that matter) is extremely expensive and not at all mobile.

Explanation:

Direct calorimetry measures the heat production of an individual, in calories, when placed in an insulated chamber where the heat is transferred to surrounding water. This is a very accurate method of measuring energy expenditure.

Restriction digest A:
vredina [299]

Answer:

This question seem incomplete

Explanation:

This question seem incomplete. However, if the strand of the second fragment is what is provided above, then the answer is <em>51</em>

This strand/fragment is definitely a DNA strand because of the absence of uracil (U) or because of the presence of thymine (T). The four bases in a DNA are adenine (A), Thymine (T), cytosine (C) and Guanine (G). These bases also bind to one another in the pattern described below

A ⇆ T

G ⇆ C

Hence, the adenine (A) on one strand can only bind to thymine (T) on the complementary strand (and vice versa) while the guanine (G) on one strand can only bind to cytosine (C) on the complementary strand (and vice versa).

Hence, the letters seen is the question are representations of bases in a DNA strand/fragment. The number of letters/bases here are <em>51</em>

Bacteria may be killed during cooking, but may leave behind ______ that will later grow and produce more bacteria.
Aliun [14]
The answer is SPORES.

Some bacteria, take for example clostridium can be killed with heat but still leave their spores.

They are heat-resistant spores that may survive cooking and later grow and produce large numbers of cells if the storage temperature is appropriate for their growth.

Water Cycle 1. How is water stored on Earth during the water cycle? 2. Water moves into the atmosphere through ____________ and
Naily [24]
Water Cycle:


1. It is stored in the ground.

2. Evaporation, transportation, precipitation

3. Runoff comes straight from precipitation. Infiltration is from the ground while run off never went in the ground.

4. It will usually end up in the same place, the ocean

5. Water levels rise, temperatures rise, CO2 in atmosphere increases


Carbon Cycle:

1. Carbon is important because it is one of the basic building blocks of life.

2. Trees, animals, grass, decomposition, combustion, fossil fuels

3. Carbon enters as photosynthesis.

4. Carbon enters water to the soil decomposition. Aquatic plants have plenty of water to work with, so their main challenge is getting enough sunlight and air.

6. By breathing in the oxygen from plants.

7. Two ways carbon return from animals into water is through cellular respiration and decomposition.

8. Combustion is when we dig up the fossil fuel and burn it, then what is left goes into the air starting the cycle again.

9. Deforestation reduces the capacity of forests to be carbon sinks.


Nitrogen Cycle:

1. Nitrogen is important because it helps us grow crops, and it produces grass for animal.

2. It comes from lightning and is named nitrogen fixation.

3. Ammonification and then transitions into nitrification and then to assimilation.


Phosphorus Cycle:

1. It forms part of life sustaining molecules like DNA and RNA.

2. Phosphorus is never found in the atmosphere.
