During a biology lab practical, students were required to identify a metal by its density. All the metals were painted green so

students could not use color as a factor to eliminate choices. Carl computed the density of his sample metal to be 8.9 g/cm3. Since Carl's lab grade depended on his accuracy and correct identification of the sample metal, he was unsure which sample he had, nickel or copper. What would you tell Carl about his density measurement? A) Disregard any decimal points and use only whole numbers. B) 8.9 is closer to to 8.91 than 8.96 so Carl should chose nickel. C) Re-do the measurements, several times, and take the average density before making a decision. D) When using water displacement to find the volume, be sure to read the meniscus to the nearest 0.01 ml.

Answer:

C) Re-do the measurements, several times, and take the average density before making a decision.

Explanation:

For the correct identification of the metal, weather its nickel or copper, Carl should repeat the experiment several times and take the average density before making the decision. It is important because it reduces the chance of error and ensure the data integrity.  The more the sample size is, lessen would be the error.

Answer:

Re-do the measurements, several times, and take the average density before making a decision.

Explanation:

Do not rely on just one set of measurements if your grade depends on accuracy. Take several sets of measurements; next take an average. Do not round while measuring or before computing; round last.

The variability in marine salinity between habitats dose not impact the fish living there
Margarita [4]
<span>Since water is generally shallow, photosynthetic processes are possible for marine life which attracts more organisms to their primary food sources. Since the land is near shallow waters, discharges of nutrients from the soil are brought into the sea for the consumption of organisms. Aside from these reasons, periodic upwellings in the sea also provide cool and nutrient rich waters for different species.</span>

Use what you know about atmospheric circulation and seasonal changes in the sun’s orientation to earth to explain the highly sea
viva [34]

Answer:

The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ)region gets the most direct sunlight at any given period in time. This in turn causes air to be unstable with a drop in pressure and rise of air which cools and condenses into clouds to form precipitation causing the wet season in the tropics.

In this region, the sun is directly or almost overhead as seen during summer periods in the tropics.

Only in areas of the North and South of the ITCZ known as doldrums which at times are parallel to the ITCZ do we have high pressure that aren't conducive to precipitation causing dry season in the tropics.

In the ITCZ zone, we also have the tropical rain forests along the equator with huge amount of all round rain for the year.

Along the equator, on either side of the rain forests we have the dry and wet forests with the savannah to the North of this region and the southern hemisphere to the south of these forests since these forests are seen mostly in the ITCZ than the savannahs.

Rain shadows and ocean cueeebts may at times cause some savannahs to be along the equator and some rain forests -wet and dry forests- to be positioned further form the equator.
