A scientist wants to test whether the pH, salinity, and temperature of seawater impacts coral development. He sets up an experim

ent with three conditions: Aquarium 1: Normal pH, normal salinity, normal temperature Aquarium 2: High pH, high salinity, high temperature Aquarium 3: Low pH, low salinity, low temperature He finds that coral grow the least in Aquarium 2. He concludes that coral does not grow well in conditions with high salt. Why is this an invalid conclusion?
 The experiment does not have a control group.
 The experiment changes more than one variable at once.
 The experiment does not have an experimental group.
 The experiment does not measure any dependent variables.

The conclusion that coral does not grow well in conditions with high salt is invalid because (B)  The experiment changes more than one variable at once.

In order to correctly study the effect of three variables on there needs to be, 3 x 3 x 3 = 27 different aquariums (every variable takes 3 different values and there are 3 different variables).

In these aquariums, only one condition needs to be varied at a time to study its effect. To study the condition with high salt, the temperature and pH needs needs to be kept fixed at a particular value whilst varying the salinity from normal to low to high.

Tems11 [23]

b. All adults should engage in moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity for at least 150 minutes per week, vigorous-intensity aerobic activity for 75 minutes per week, or an equivalent combination of the two.

Explanation:

The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans guidelines for older adults states that:

Older adults are more susceptible to cardiac and nervous disorders along with poor musculoskeletal strength.  

To maintain good cardiac and nervous health; musculoskeletal fitness and strength; reduce depression, cognitive decline; older adults are directed to engage in moderate-intensity/vigorous or combination of both aerobic physical activities and muscle-strengthening exercises.

They should include physical activities combining one or more of; occupational (work-based) activities; transportation (walking, cycling); household chores (cleaning); leisure time activities (gardening, dancing); sports activities (hiking, biking, swimming, games, running) and planned daily routine exercise activities; all of them as part of their daily routines performed as an individual, family or community-based activities .

Older adults with mobility issues should perform exercises to improve their balance and prevent falls .

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The factors which remained constant are as follows -

  1. material used as the membrane
  2. amount of substances used
  3. number of trials

The factors which have shown variation are as follows -

  1. molecule size (large starch molecules vs. small glucose molecules)
  2. whether the molecules diffused through the membrane (tubing)

Explanation

Some factors with in the experiments remained constant from the point of starting of the experiment to its end. While some factors were varied to study its impact on the experiment rate of progression or on the final product formed. Thus , out of the following given factors, the ones that remained constant are -

  1. material used as the membrane
  2. amount of substances used
  3. number of trials

The factors which have shown variation are as follows -

  1. molecule size (large starch molecules vs. small glucose molecules)
  2. whether the molecules diffused through the membrane (tubing)

Which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE about Red Blood Cells (RBCs)? a) A normal RBC has a nucleus RBCs' production is
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

RBCs' production is controlled by erythropoietin.

Mature RBCs are released into the bloodstream after approximately seven days RBCs are produced in the bone marrow

Explanation:

The hormone erythropoietin is produced and released in the bloodstream by peritubular interstitial cells of kidneys. The function of erythropoietin is to increase the number of the precursors of red blood cells and thereby to stimulate the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. When the oxygen supply to body cells is reduced, the hormone erythropoietin stimulates the development of proerythroblasts into reticulocytes and thereby increases the RBC production.

RBCs are produced by the process of erythropoiesis and take about seven days to become mature and to be released in circulation to serve the function of oxygen delivery. The maturation of RBCs also includes the loss of most of the organelles such as the nucleus and mitochondria to accommodate hemoglobin protein. The life span of circulating RBCs is about 100-120 days.
