Two students completed an experiment to determine if pesticide use at local farms was causing fish kills in a local pond. The st

eps of the experiment are listed below. Select one location to collect water samples in the pond. Collect a 5-mL water sample at 8 am, 12 pm, and 6 pm for 10 days. Measure the amount of pesticide present in each sample using different measurement tools. After analyzing their data, the students conclude that pesticide runoff from farms is causing the fish to die in the pond. Which of these statements best describes why their conclusion is not valid?

Answer: Greetings.. I just took the test and got a 90..  This was the only question I got wrong, so all I can tell you is what it isn't. It IS NOT  The time and day of sample collection was not an independent variable.

Explanation: It IS NOT  The time and day of sample collection was not an independent variable..

Sorry I couldn't help more. I got every other question right.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

K = 9.620 × 10⁻⁶

Explanation:

From the given information:

Temperature T= 6° C

= (273 + 6)K

= 279 K

The correct and well presentation of the reactions are:

1. Luciferin + O_2     ⇆     oxyluciferin + light   ΔG₁°

2. ATP                     ⇄   AMP + PP_i                  ΔG₂°  = -31.6 kJ/mol

The overall  ΔG° = -4.80 kJ/mol

Let's first determine the ΔG₁° for the equation (1)

ΔG° = ΔG₁° + ΔG₂°

- ΔG₁° = - ΔG° + ΔG₂°

ΔG₁° = ΔG° - ΔG₂°

ΔG₁° = ( -4.80 - (-31.6) ) kJ/mol

ΔG₁° = 26.8 kJ/mol

Using the formula:

ΔG° = -RTIn K

In \  K =\dfrac{-\Delta G^0}{RT} \\ \\ log \ K = -\dfrac{\Delta G^0}{2.303RT}

log \ K = -\dfrac{\Delta G_1^0}{2.303RT} \\ \\ log \ K = -\dfrac{26.8 \times 10^3 \ J/mol}{2.303\times 8.314 \ J/mol/K \times 279 \ K} \\ \\ log \  K =- 5.017

K = antilog (-5.017)

K = 9.620 × 10⁻⁶

If <span>the box is empty. 

Functional fixedness is a subjective predisposition that restrains a man to utilizing a question just in the way it is customarily utilized. The idea of practical fixedness started in Gestalt brain science, a development in brain research that stresses all-encompassing handling.

How do phagocytes protect the body
Olin [163]

1) pathogen enters body and releases chemoattractants

2) a phagocyte/macrophage is attracted by these chemicals

3) the phagocyte engulfs the pathogen using its pseudopodia

4) the membranes of both organisms fuse forming a phagosome

5) lysosomers in the phogocyte fuse with the phagosome, forming a phagolysosome

6) these enzymes digest the pahogen (hydrolyse the bonds)

7) the antigens of the pathogen are placed on the surface of the phagocyte making an APC (antigen presenting cell)
