Answer:

<em>398 deaths were caused by Alzheimer.</em>

Explanation:

Proportionate mortality rate (PMR) gives the proportion of deaths in a given population over a period of time, this can be linked to various causes.

Mathematically PMR is reoresented below;

PMR =   \frac{D_{s} }{D_{t} } X 100

where D_{s} =  No. of death from a specific cause (In our case Alzheimier )

          D_{t} = Total No. of death at a given period

from the question the parameters were given except the number of death from Alzheimier

1.87 = \frac{D_{s} X 100}{21,270}

multiply both side by 21,270 to isolate D_{s}

D_{s} X 100 = 1.87 x 21,270

Divide both side by 100 to obtain  D_{s}

 D_{s} = \frac{39774.9}{100}

D_{s} = 397.749

since dead people can not be divided

<em></em>D_{s}<em> </em>

I'm pretty sure I that it depends on the tide of the water. When it's low tide you can go deeper in the water when it's high tide you can't go that far without touching the ground

Write a brief history of the Zika Virus/Fever
docker41 [41]
<span>Zika virus is a member of the Flaviviridae family and is transmitted to humans by mosquitoes. It is related to other pathogenic vector borne flaviviruses including dengue, West-Nile and Japanese encephalitis viruses but produces a comparatively mild disease in humans. Since 2007 Zika virus has caused several outbreaks in the Pacific, and since 2015 it further spread in the Americas. These were the first documented transmissions outside of its traditional endemic areas in Africa and Asia. Zika virus is considered an emerging infectious disease with the potential to spread to new areas where the Aedes mosquito vector is present. There is no evidence of transmission Zika virus in Europe to date </span>

While spending a day at Funtasia amusement park with their family, Polly (age 5) and her sister Dinah (age 15) met Funder Dog, t
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: The correct answer is d) Polly will conclude that all theme park mascots are friendly, and Dinah will be wary of concluding that all theme park mascots are friendly.

Explanation:

As the brain matures, more cognitive functions are acquired, so different stages of cognitive development can be distinguished. This refers to the process as people gradually acquire knowledge and also learn to use it.

This theory was created by Piaget, which is called the theory of the stage of cognitive development. This is divided into four stages, that is:

1. Sensorimotor stage (includes from 0 to 2 years)

2. Preoperational stage (2 to 7 years)

3. Stage of concrete operations (7 to 12 years)

4. Stage of formal operations (12 years until adulthood)

In the case of Polly, he is five years old so that he would be in the preoperational cognitive development stage, and his 15-year-old sister Dinah is in the formal operations stage.

The reason why Polly can think that all theme park pets are friendly since, at the stage of preoperational development, children remain self-centered. They have not developed abstract thinking, do not make complex connections, and present a magical thought which Helps the child interpret how the world works, usually by associations.

Instead, Dinah is in the stage of formal operations where people use hypothetical deductive reasoning, which allows the person to perform abstract thoughts, deduce, and reason in a situation. For this reason, Dinah will not concluide that all the pets in the theme parks are friendly since she is carrying out a hypothetica thinking.

<em>I hope this information can help you.</em>
