Answer:

The correct answer is a. the scores are spread out within the groups, which makes it more difficult to see differences between groups.

Explanation:

Within-group variability implies that each group has many different scores within itself. For example, Group 1 has both high and low scores, Group 2 also has high and low scores, and so on. This implies that the scores are spread out within groups, rather than clustered together within groups.

If the scores are spread out within groups, then it is more difficult to see differences between groups. This is because all the groups appear similar as there are hardly any distinguishing characteristics for each group. Therefore, the researcher needs more participants to define each group accurately. Hence, option a is the correct answer.

After Odysseus returns and kills the suitors, Penelope is in doubt that he really has returned ( it's been 20 years of waiting )

aev [14]

Answer and explanation:

In the famous epic poem "The Odyssey", Odysseus has spent the past couple of decades trying to return home after the war in Troy. When he finally comes home and kills the men who want to marry his wife, Penelope, he is unrecognizable - not only because of the time that has passed, but also because the goddess Athena changed his appearance. To test him and be sure if he truly is who he says he is, Penelope asks a servant to move their marriage bed. Odysseus gets angry at her order, since he built their bedroom around an olive tree and used the tree as a bedpost. His knowledge of that story and his anger show Penelope that man is truly the husband she's been faithfully waiting for.
