Answer:

IPCC determines the state of knowledge on climate change. It identifies where there is agreement in the scientific community on topics related to climate change. I hope that was helpful.

Explanation:

Its role as defined in the “Principles Governing IPCC Work” is “to assess on a comprehensive, objective, open and transparent basis the scientific, technical and sociology-economic information relevant to understanding the scientific basis of risk of human-induced climate change.

Incomplete question. The remaining part of the question read;

Words in the left column:

Yes
No
Observational
Manipulative

1. A physiologist incubates eggs in the lab at a range of temperatures to see what temperatures produce males and what temperatures produce females.

2. A biologist predicts that shade might influence ground temperature, and therefore turtle sex ratios. He records the sex ratio of turtle hatchlings in shaded and unshaded regions

3. An ecologist predicts turtles grow larger when no predators are around. She places turtles in an experimental pond system where half the ponds have predators and half the ponds have had the predators removed.

4. A climatologist predicts that concentration of CO2 in a city will be negatively correlated with the amount of wind in that city. He collects data and looks at the amount of CO2 in a city as a function of the wind speed in the city.

5. A sociologist conducts a survey in Hawaii to describe people's attitudes about global climate change.

6. A scientist determines the average wind speed, and variation in the amount of wind, in a number of locations to see which locations would be most suitable for wind turbines

Answer/Explanation:

1. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

We can make this conclusion here that the physiologists' research is hypothesis-driven since we are told he wanted to "see what temperatures produce males and what temperatures produce females." In other words, he wanted to know whether the temperature used in incubators can influence the sex of an egg by means of observation.

2. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Observation.

3. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Manipulative.

We can make the conclusion that is the ecologist used the manipulative method in her research since she decided to place the turtles in two different types of ponds; one where half the ponds have predators while in the other the pond the predators have been removed. In other words, she manipulated the independent variables.

4. Hypothesis-driven? Yes!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

Note, the use of the word, "predicts" in most instances underscores the tone of hypothesis-driven research, hence we can say Yes! And remember, we are told the researcher "collects data", meaning he is merely observing differences that occur naturally.

5. Hypothesis-driven? No!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

6. Hypothesis-driven? No!

Observational or Manipulative? Observational.

Answer:

The correct option is C: antigen-binding sites

Explanation:

The antibody is shaped much like the letter Y in the English alphabet. It has two antigen binding sites that are identical in nature. The specificity of these sites is determined by the amino acid sequence that makes it up. Antibodies are complementary to these antigen binding sites, and the antibodies have an incredible ability to recognize a great variety of antigens.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Do the six kingdoms each have a purpose in the real world today like it did back then.

Nuetrik [128]

I’m assuming the six kingdoms of life, but yes they do have a very large purpose for providing characteristics to bacteria, animals, fungi, humans, etc.
