Answer:

The correct answer is option D. "generally is of higher velocity, although it is masked by reduced turbulence".

Explanation:

In most rivers, the downstream portion is both wider and deeper than the upstream portion. This means that there is more water in the downstream portion, which in consequence results in the river having a higher velocity. However, this is masked by a reduced turbulence since a higher amount of water tend to overcome more easily all the obstacles that can generate friction.

When adult amphibian skin harbors populations of the bacterium, Janthinobacterium lividum (Jl), chytrid infection seems to be in
ira [324]

Answer:

C: Take infected amphibians and assign them to two populations. Leave one population alone; inoculate the other with Jl. Measure the rate at which infection proceeds in both populations.

Explanation:

In scientific investigations, the best way to determine the effect of certain experimental factor on the population of study is to have a baseline for comparison. This is usually referred to as controlled experiment.

<em>In the case of the observation that chytrid infection in amphibians seems to be inhibited by Janthinobacterium lividum, the best way experimental design is to get a population of amphibians suffering from the disease, divide them into two groups and subject them to the same conditions except the introduction of Janthinobacterium lividum to the skin of one of the groups.</em>

<em>A suitable method can thereafter be employed to measure the rate at which infection proceeds in both population. If indeed, the bacterium has the capacity to inhibit the infection, the rate of infection in the group with the bacterium will be significantly less than that of the group without the bacterium. </em>

The correct option is C.
