The right answer is Thanh's grade is 2.5 standard deviations below the mean of the test grades.

The z scores are standard deviations. If, for example, a tool returns a z score of +2.5, it means that the result is a standard deviation of 2.5.

Very high or very low (negative) z scores associated with very low p values are at the ends of the normal distribution.

Elenna [48]
Since all of the three beetle species posses the protein, we can use it to determine their relations. We can study the sequence of the amino acids that make the protein and the 3D structure of the protein. The more differences there are in amino acid sequences and the structure of the protein, the species are more distantly related because they have diverged a long time ago and their genes that produce that protein have undergone many changes over time.

The following image shows a pencil submerged in a glass of water. A friend thinks that the pencil is broken. How would you expla
dezoksy [38]

Correct answer: A). Light slows down as it moves from the air in to the water, resulting in refraction, or a bending of light.

This is because as light travels through one media it travels in a straight line, however, when it travels from one media to another media it bends, light path bends because of the phenomenon of refraction of light.

The refraction takes place only at the boundary, as the light continues to cross the boundary, it travels in a straight line.

So, as the portion of the pencil is submerged in water, the light will travel from water to air.

Hence it appears to be broken because of refraction of light. So, the correct answer would be option A.

Answer:

c. shady forests.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

a. freshwater aquatic environments.

b. sunny, xeric habitats.

c. shady forests.

d. habitats with very cold winters.

e. oceans.

Angiosperms are plants that have stems, roots and leaves. Moreover, these plants have seeds in a flower. Usually, angiosperm eggs are fertilized through pollination in a flower. Flowers have both male and female reproductive organs. Based on the analysis of the nucleotide sequences of genes, it appears that the ancestors of angiosperms were adapted for survival in shady forests.

guapka [62]

Answer:

C) polarity

Explanation:

The polar nature of water molecules allows it to dissolve like molecules, such molecules are also polar.

  • In water molecules hydrogen bonds provides a special dipole - dipole attraction.
  • Here, the hydrogen atom is directly joined to a highly electronegative atom(oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine).
  • This leads to a charge separation in which the hydrogen atom has net positive charge and the electronegative one has negative charge.
  • This makes the molecule of water polar.
  • By this property water easily attracts oppositely charged portions of another substance and then pull them into solution.

This property of water is polarity of water.
