Two students are working together on an experiment that measures the effect of different liquid fertilizers on the thickness of

plants’ stems. Which is most likely to result in the greatest amount of error in their scientific experiment?
One student measures the plant stem widths by using calipers. The other student measures the widths of the same plant stems again by using a different pair of calipers.
One student measures the plant stem widths by using calipers. The other student types the measurements as they are taken into a computer spreadsheet.
One student measures liquids for the experiment by holding the flask up at eye level. The other student measures liquids for the experiment while the flask sits on the table.
One student weighs liquids for the experiment by using a calibrated scale. The other student weighs liquids for the experiment by using a different calibrated scale.

The correct answer is option (C) One student measures liquids for the experiment by holding the flask up at eye level. The other student measures liquids for the experiment while the flask sits on the table. Measuring liquids by holding the flask at eye level is the greatest amount of error in the experiment.

When liquid is being measured in a flask, the liquid shows a curve downwards which is called the meniscus. For measuring the transparent liquids, the lower meniscus touching the graduation of the should be considered and for measuring the colored liquids, the upper meniscus touching the graduation of the flask should be considered. When, the measurement is done by holding the flask at eye level there is always an error as it should be kept on a flat surface and measured by eyes directly leveling with the liquid. This gives a correct measurement which was done by the other student. Thus, one student measuring the liquid by holding the flask at eye level will have a wrong measurement and the other student measuring the liquid while the flask sits on the table gives the correct measurement and the results of the experiment will vary.

1. Intentionally taking species over to another place. Think smuggling animals over, you might think a squirrel is cute and bring it home from your trip to Paris back to the US. That squirrel can now be an invasive species. Don't be spiderman and take a banana on the plane!

2. Unintentionally carrying a species over. This can be on boat propellers, water tanks in boats, airplane wheels, etc. Getting animals stuck in transportation can become invasive.

How can climate change be reduced by protecting the tropical rain forests 3
Alborosie

Explanation:

Tropical rain forests are one of the densely vegetated forests with millions of plants and animals species. The climate of the Earth is changing at an alarming rate and the scientists are appealing people to save these forests.

This could be accounted for the reason that the tropical forests have a diversity of plant species which can utilize the available carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to perform photosynthesis. This can directly reduce the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere which is responsible for the greenhouse effect.

The greenhouse effect increases the temperature of the Earth as the greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and monoxide covers the atmosphere which does not allow the sun rays to deflect back from the surface of the earth and the heat energy is trapped in the atmosphere. This heat energy is one of the causes of Global warming.

Which of the following statements regarding infections involving biofilms is FALSE?
mojhsa [17]

Answer: Microbes in biofilms are more resistant to antimicrobials then are independent organisms.

Explanation:

Biofilms are a group of microorganisms that adheres to surface mostly due to individual free flowing bacteria which other organisms join and grows together with. They release slimy glue-like extracellular polymeric substance that provides them the ability to attach to cell surfaces, resist drugs, disinfectants and sterilization. Microbes in biofilm are at an advantage compared to individual microbes because they share nutrients and are protected from conditions that are harmful to them.
