Dr. Paul discovers a new chemical that he predicts will increase energy levels in hamsters. He designs an experiment to test his

prediction.
Dr. Paul separates 12 hamsters into two equal groups. He gives one group of hamsters the chemical but does not give the chemical to the other group. He keeps everything else about the hamsters' living environment the same.

Over the next month, Dr. Paul measures the time that the hamsters spend running on their exercise wheels each day. He then calculates averages for these measurements, which are shown in the table below.

Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4
Average Time Spent on Wheel by Hamsters Given Chemical 4.4 hours/day 5.1 hours/day 5.6 hours/day 5.3 hours/day
Average Time Spent on Wheel by Hamsters Not Given Chemical 3.2 hours/day 2.5 hours/day 2.8 hours/day 3.0 hours/day


The data that Dr. Paul collects during his experiment
A.
are not valid because Dr. Paul did not use a control group in his experiment.

B.
support his prediction that the chemical will increase energy levels in hamsters.

C.
contradict his prediction that the chemical will increase energy levels in hamsters.

D.
are not valid because experiments cannot be done on living organisms.

He tells his students that _____ in the ______ help coordinate contraction of certain muscles and relaxation of others. Answers:
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

A. motor neurons; peripheral nervous system

Explanation:

Motor neurons carry signals from the peripheral nervous system to the muscles. This causes the muscles to either relax or contract. Note that the peripheral nervous system consists of neurons and parts of neurons outside of the central nervous system which consists of the brain and spinal cord. When signals are transmitted between the motor neurons and peripheral nervous system, this causes a response to stimulus in the muscles which would either, relax or contract.

Why does increasing soil salinity have adverse effects on plant cells?
borishaifa [10]
Ezywhen salinity in soil increases the soil becomes hypertonic when compared to cell sap.the movement of particles from a lower concentrated solution to a higher concentrated solution is callede osmosis. in general conditions cell sap is at higher conc. than surrounding media. this allows water and minerals to enter the plant. but when soil is at higher conc. i.e., when its salinity increases the process becomes reversed can you imagine its consequenses?

You are a geneticist studying prader-willi syndrome. which chromosome do you focus on? you are a geneticist studying prader-will
shepuryov [24]
 The Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is due to the lack of expression of paternal genes of the 15q11-q13 region. It usually occurs sporadically, although some family cases have been described (<1%). Approximately 70% of cases are produced by deletions of paternal origin in the 15q11-q13 region. 28% of cases are due to maternal uniparental disomy and less than 2% are caused by imprinting alterations. A geneticist studying prader-willi syndrome should focus on chromosome 15, its structure or changes in the number, these anomalies are also related to other syndromes such as: Bloom Syndrome, Breast cancer, Isovaleric acidity among others.
