Solution:

prednisone, are primarily used for their potent anti-inflammatory effects in disorders of many organ systems it works as  it is absorbed in the body, unlike inhaled steroids (anti-inflammatory asthma inhalers) that go straight to the lungs. ...

Answer:

1) you're going to have to flip the coins (or fake numbers) for the experimental trials.

2) for the theoretical, there is 1/2 chance for heads or tails with each toss, so you'd expect that out of 10 tosses, 5 heads, 5 tails. out of 100 tosses- 50 heads, 50 tails.

When tossing 2 coins- 1/2×1/2 = 1/4 (25%) chance that 2 heads, 2 tails, or 1 heads & 1 tails. Deviation value comes from after you done your flipping and recorded your data. So if on 100 flips you actually got 50 and 50 (rarely us that exact ;), the deviation from the expected of 50/50 would be 0.00. If however you flipped 100 heads or 100 tails (impossible), then the deviation value would be 1.00.

|(100-50)| ÷ 50 = 50÷50 = 1.00

So usually you may have data like: 47/53 or something a little off than 50/50, making deviation |(47-50)| ÷ 50 = 3÷50 = 0.06.

Now the number of flips is important for the outcome! So if a coin toss if 10 times had 4 heads, 6 tails, the deviation value would be:

|(4-5)| ÷ 5 = 1÷5 = 0.20

So increasing the # flips DECREASES the deviation value!!

Whether it's from 10 to 100, or from 100 to 200. Look at my example of how the 10-flip deviation of 0.20 decreased to 0.06 with 100-flip

1.<br> Describe two advantages of genetic engineering.
Novay_Z [31]
One advantage of genetic engineering is the production of valuable proteins: recombinant DNA made possible the use of bacteria to produce proteins of medical importance such as genetically engineered human insulin which is of great importance.
Another advantage is the production of vaccines. Vaccines produced by genetic engineering offer an advantage that the microbial strains from which proteins are extracted do not contain complete viruses and thus there is no risk of accidental inoculation with live virus.

How does osmosis affect plants?
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Plant cells are enclosed by a rigid cell wall. When the plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, it takes up water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting.
