The term "law" is a historical relic going back to Newtonian times, when after Newton's development of classical mechanics, it was thought that the workings of the universe were directly analagous to a perfectly constructed and perfectly predictable clockwork. That was turned on its head as a result of quantum mechanics, and modern scientists typically avoid use of the term "law" anymore because it is too dogmatic. Newton's "Laws" are still called that mainly for historical reasons now. What used to be called laws are now called theories.
Answer:
The testes are oval organs about the size of very large olives that lie in the scrotum, secured at either end by a structure called the spermatic cord. Most men have two testes. The testes are responsible for making testosterone, the primary male sex hormone, and for producing sperm.
Explanation:
Fungi contain cell walls made of chitin.
The mutation in the somatic cells is known as somatic mutations. As they do not take place in the cells, which give rise to gametes, thus, the mutation is not inherited to the next generation by the sexual means.
On the other hand, the genetic mutations take place in the germline cells, that is, egg and sperm, because of this the mutations possesses the tendency to get passed on from one generation to another.
Thus, mutations are only passed on to offspring when they take place in germ cell DNA. The other kind of cells, the somatic cells refers to the rest of the cells in the body and mutations, which takes place in these cells do not get inherited further to the offspring.
Hence, the correct statements are mutations to gametes can be passed on to an organism's offspring and mutations to somatic cells are only present in the type of cell in which the mutation occurred.
Answer & explanation:
A confidence interval is an estimated range of a parameter of interest. Confidence intervals are used to indicate the reliability of an estimate. For example, a confidence interval can be used to describe how reliable a search result is.
In other words, a high confidence interval Z value implies that a survey is more likely to indicate the actual values being presented.
In biostatistics, for example, the Z value can be used in calculations to assess the prevalence of a particular disease and the factors associated with it in a population.
The value of Z, however, is not used as a percentage (like the 99.5% addressed in this question) for calculations. A universal table is used to convert Z values and use them in statistical calculations.
Some examples of Z value conversions can be found in the table attached in this question.
