No, that is completely impossible. The reasoning behind it is because if its a large group of fish they're swimming back and forth ect, ect, it would be like counting a bowl of rice, but not being able to take any out. To get around these counting problems, scientists take data from just a small portion of the population called a sample. They take several samples and then use the average size of those samples to calculate an estimate of the entire population size.

beks73 [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

To help relieve heartburn, a person should take medicine that is 'Over-the-counter (OTC) antacids and acid blockers'.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Heartburn is a very common symptom of a condition called Gastroesophageal reflux disease.
  • This affects the lower part of the esophageal sphincter and also the muscle ring-like connection between the 'esophagus and stomach' which tends to infuse a backward flow of the stomach secretions.
  • Along with some dietary and life style changes, the intake of antacids and acid blockers can help in the relieve of the symptoms of occasional heartburn.
