Answer:Selection bias

Explanation:Selection bias refers to selecting individuals in a way that a proper randomisation is not achieved which makes the result not representative of the whole population. This is also called selection effect.This usually occurs when a researcher chooses only participants that will support the idea he has in mind about the variable of interest that they are researching. For example if someone is researching the effect of healthy food on particular population but instead of selecting participants randomly, a researcher goes to a health food market ,vegetable places and gyms. Then a researcher ends up concluding that healthy eating is crucial within this population.

This is wrong because a researcher only chose places that were convenient to this research.

HELP PLS HELP. THE BOOK IS Ceres and Proserpina
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

This question is incomplete because the book is not given, but it can be easily found on the internet.

Explanation

The text deals with the kidnapping of Proserpina, perpetrated by Pluto who wanted her as his wife. This kidnapping was done with the approval of Jupiter (Proserpina's father and Pluto's brother). However, Ceres (Proserpina's mother) did not know anything about this plan, so when her daughter was kidnapped she had a time of depression and anguish, which had negative consequences on agriculture (because Ceres is the goddess of Agriculture). So, Other gods asked Ceres to allow the crops and the fertility of the soils to which she replied that she would if Pluto released her daughter. Once Pluto knew this, he decided to free Proserpina, but he tricked her, making her eat pomegranate seeds (the sacred food of the underworld).

When Proserpina came to her mother she told him that she had eaten these seeds, and her mother was alarmed because this would force Proserpina to be the queen of the underworld and to visit his husband Pluto for half a year, every year. Therefore, the seasons originated because when Proserpina must go to the underworld, her mother becomes sad causing the autumn and winter seasons, and when she returns with her mother they are the spring and summer seasons. So the correct answer is A. Jupiter.

Allen actively participates in the following eSports tournaments that are held annually around the world. He roots for his favor
Verizon [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A microculture is a group of people with the same characteristics, rituals and slang. In Allen's case, he has an interest in eSports tournaments and always supports a particular team that is UniVi Gaming. Note that in this scenario nobody's age was mentioned, so we can conclude that age is not an important factor in influencing Allen to cheer for his favorite team.

Thus, we can conclude that in this scenario Allen's interest in eSports is an example of a microculture based on common interests. Allen is as interested in eSports as his team is.
