The chronic long term use of alcohol
During week 2 of the menstrual cycle (day 8 to day 14 or
ovulation), estrogen levels rise until it reaches its peak. Typically, days
12-14 have the highest levels of estrogen, which causes an increase in Luteinizing Hormone, which is responsible for the release of the egg cell. If
hormone levels fail to reach its peak before day 14, ovulation is not possible
because the egg cannot be released. Pregnancy may be highly unlikely.
Eukaryotes are larger cells with membrane-bounded organelles. Prokarotes are not that large and do not have a nucleus or any memberane-bound organelles.
This study lacks generalizability.
Generalizability is an academic term and describes the process of extending research findings and observations from a study on a sample population to a larger and more diverse population. The larger the sample population, the easier will be to generalize the results to the wider population. In this example, Dr Kirch used a sampling technique called convenience sampling, which involves the selection of the most available and proximate subjects. However, there is sampling bias since the sampling population is not representative of the entire population and therefore the study can not speak for the entire population.
