Suppose that a biologist states that the average height of undergraduate students at your university is 205 cm plus or minus a s

GrogVix [38]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

This means that the means height (which is all the sum of the height of all the students divided by their number ) is 205 cm. Standard deviation means how the height of the students deviates from this mean since students do vary in height and are not all the same height of 205 cm. Therefore, in this case, the amount of standard dispersion of the students' height is by 17 cm on either lower or higher side of the mean.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The correct answer is "cell lysis due to the effect of osmotic pressure".

Explanation:

The cell wall is a structure that brings protection from the outside world and also helps to maintain the cell's water balance. The cell wall prevents that the cells is exposed to a large amount of turgor pressure, making the cell turgid when it is under extremal conditions. Some antimicrobials, such as bacitracin, block cell wall synthesis which makes the cell unable to support turgor pressure, resulting in cell lysis due to the effect of osmotic pressure.

Describe how each of Newton’s laws may be observable during a car trip.
aleksandrvk [35]
According to Newton's first law, an object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Any passengers in the car will also be decelerated to rest if they are strapped to the car by seat belts. Also if a car was going straight but another car (unbalanced force) bumps into it causing the motion of the car to change.

aev [14]
Although nitrogen gas makes up 78% of the atmosphere, we can't use it because nitrogen atoms must be broken apart first before. This nitrogen is very much packed and bonded with its atoms and would be useless to use since it can't be used for plants.
