Three students attempt to define what a circle is. Can you match the teacher's comments to the definitions?
Alborosie

This question is incomplete, the complete part of the question containing the students definition and teacher's comment is:

Ruby's definiton: A 3-dimensional shape whose boundary consists of all points equidistant from a fixed point (the center).

Shriya's definition: The set of all points in a 2D plane such that for every point in the set there is exactly one other point in the set that is d (call it diameter) units away.

Abhishek's definition: The set of all points in a plane that are the same distance (radius) away from some given point (center).

Teacher's comments:

Are you thinking of a sphere?

You are correct. Nicely done!

This is incorrect. For example, your definition also allows for the following shape, which is just part of a circle.​

THE ANSWERS ARE:

Ruby's definiton: Are you thinking of a sphere?

Shriya's definition: This is incorrect. For example, your definition also allows for the following shape, which is just part of a circle.​

Abhishek's definition: You are correct. Nicely done!

Explanation:

A circle is a two-dimensional round plane shape (2D shape) whose boundary line called the circumference has several points that are of the same distance (radius) from the centre point of the shape.

Based on this definition of a circle, the answers given by each students will now be reviewed.

1). Ruby's definiton: This definition is wrong because a circle is not a 3D shape. The definition is describing more of a SPHERE, which is a 3D round shape in a space. Hence, the teachers comment will appropriately be; Are you thinking of a sphere?

2.) Shriya's definition: This definition is wrong because it is not describing a circle, rather it is describing a part of a circle (diameter). Hence, the teachers comment appropriate for this answer is: This is incorrect. For example, your definition also allows for the following shape, which is just part of a circle

3). Abhishek's definition: This definition correctly describes a circle, hence, the teacher's comment will be: You are correct. Nicely done!

Increased Serum Interleukin-2 Levels Are Associated with Abnormal Peripheral Blood Natural Killer Cell Levels in Patients with A
amm1812

In rheumatoid Arthritis patients, NK cell levels were abnormally elevated, possibly due to high serum levels of IL-2.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is an autoimmune disease that means our own immune system attacks self healthy cells in the body by mistake, causing inflammation (painful swelling),mainly attacks the joints.

The given study is to investigate the relationship between serum interleukin-2 (IL-2) levels and disease activity.

This study also showed the relationship between absolute numbers of peripheral lymphocyte subsets, autoantibodies, and associated cytokines in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

The results showed that the number and percentage of NK cells were positively correlated with serum IL-2 levels so, IL-2 can be a reason for elevated level of NK cells

Why is death by predators more natural or right then death by starvation?
balu736 [363]
Predators have to eat. If things are good in an eco-system then the prey is eating good which means the predators can eat good also. Starvation means that things in the eco-system are going bad. Also, It helps the earth maintain its balance. If too much of any aspect of the system is removed it throws the whole thing off balance. too many herbivores will eat too much vegetation.
