Let us differentiate accuracy from precision. Accuracy is the nearness of the measured value to the true or exact value. On the other hand, precision is the nearness of the measured values between each other. So, for precision, select the student in which the measured values are very near to each other. That would be Student III. Now, for accuracy, let's find the average for each student.

Student I: (<span>8.72g+8.74g+8.70g)/3 = 8.72 g
Student II: (</span><span>8.56g+8.77g+8.83g)/3 = 8.72 g
Student III: (</span><span>8.50g+8.48g+8.51g)/3 = 8.50 g
Student IV: (</span><span>8.41g+8.72g+8.55g)/3 = 8.56 g

From the given results, the accurate one would be Students I and II. So, we make a compromise. Even though Student III is precise, it is not accurate. If you compare between Students I and II, the more precise data would be Student I. Therefore, the answer is Student I.</span>

Which plant characteristic is the least important with regard to attracting bats? (1 point)
Sav [38]

Answer:

O flower shape

Explanation:

Bats are just as important for pollination as insects and just like insects, plants use artifices to attract bats to their flowers, allowing them to have access to the pollen that will be taken elsewhere.

Bats are mainly attracted by the color and smell of flowers, the size and shape also play a role in attracting these animals, but the shape is less influential.

Why do the particles of objects have both kinetic and potential energy?  
OLEGan [10]
The particles of objects have both kinetic and potential energy because these forces are drive by the force of motion or stillness of an object. Potential energy is the a type of energy which an object possess however without motion. Kinetic energy in the other hand, is the energy in motion or if the object moves along from one space to another with respect to time. They both have these two energies by the presence of atoms in these entities.

In an experiment, 132 grams of potassium bromide (KNO3) was dissolved in 100 grams of water at 70 °C in 1 minute. Which of the f
pishuonlain [190]
Answer: <span>A fewer number of particles of the sample will dissolve in 1 minute.

That is because normally the solubility and rate of solubility of the salts in water increase with the temperature. This is, the higher the temperature the higher and faster the number of particles that the water can dissolve. So, at 70°C more particles will be dissolved in water in 1 minute than at 20°C.
