Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "it has high face validity".

Explanation:

Face validity in a test is a very broad concept that simply refers to whether the test appears to be suitable to report what it claims to do. It is important to notice that high face validity in a test only means that the judgers of the test agree that the test is suitable, but it doesn't mean that the test is reliable for the patient and for the therapist. In this example, Kristoff should take other tests and examinations before he could be sure that he is not suffering from depression, particularly because he has many symptoms that indicate that he is depressed.

A field of corn contains a certain amount of food energy. Compare the following situations and then answer the questions. Use th
trasher [3.6K]

Before assessing the two given cases, an assumption needs to be made about the digestion of the two types of food items, corn and beef. Let us assume that both get digested by expending same amount of energy by the human body. Let the amount of energy at producer level be an arbitrary X.

Case 1: Corn to human:

Since corn is at the producer level, it will have X amount of energy. The transfer of energy from corn to human will take place with a loss of 90% energy at the producer level. Hence the humans will receive 10% of X amount of energy.

Case 2: Corn to cow to human:

Since corn has X amount of energy, only 10% will pass to the next level, i.e. cow. So cow has 10% of X. Cow transfers only 10% of the energy that it has. Hence humans receive only 10% of 10% of X amount of energy.

It can be seen that humans receive more energy in case 1 than case 2. Hence we can say that it is more efficient for humans to feed on corn.

Prior to the 1600s it was believed that all living things were either plants or animals. Which of these inventions led to the de
hram777 [196]

Explanation:

Microscopes are instruments used for viewing microscopic cellular structures, not visible with the human eye. With an arrangement of lenses, and manipulation of light or electrons, these magnify very small objects. Light microscopy uses light and multiple lenses, while electron microscopes use electrons. These create larger images of objects.

Subcellular components and molecules require the closed system of the cell in order to function with different arrangements and features being key to certain phyla, groups and species; this aided in the reclassification of organisms into the kingdoms and phyla we know today.

Further Explanation:

Biology's unifying principle states that cells are the basic units of biological organisms. Cells sharing a similar origin, group together in the body to form tissues; these typically share physical features and are arranged in regular patterns. All living things, grow, respire, reproduce etc. these processes are carried out by cells, which are thus integral to their survival.

Before the discovery of cells by Robert Hooke in 1665 with a simple microscope, many scientists had long believed that life rose spontaneously over extended periods of time. Circa 1668 Francesco Redi, challenged the idea of spontaneous generation of maggots from rotting meat by placing meat in various sealed open, partially sealed and sealed containers. Sealed containers did not show the presence of maggots, and he theorized that these were likely from eggs laid on the meat by flies. This was the development of the theory of abiogenesis (cells arise from other living cells); this eventually proved the unifying principle we know today.

Cell theory states that living things are comprised of cells, as their smallest units capable of functioning. Microscopy helps to prove this, as cells and their varying components can readily be seen, observed and later classified. Their components and molecules require the closed system of the cell in order to function with different arrangements and features being key to certain phyla, groups and species; this aided in the reclassification of organisms into the kingdoms and phyla we know today.
