Excited about the fungus chemical's promise for treating cancer, you write up your experimental results and send the paper to a

prestigious scientific journal, hoping it will be published. The journal sends your paper out to several scientists for evaluation--a process known as peer review.
The reviewers identify several issues with the experimental design and data presented in your paper. Which of the following criticisms are valid issues of concern that peer reviewers might identify?
- The effect may not be real because we don't know if the results are reproducible.- The treatment kills cancer cells, but it might simply be a poison that kills all cells—even normal cells.- Cell samples were taken from too few patients.

Answer:

All of them

Explanation:

The effect may not be real because we don't know if the results are reproducible: Peers can identify flaws in the experimental design because an experiment must have a clear design in order to be reproducible by other researchers or else they would not have scientific validity.

The treatment kills cancer cells, but it might simply be a poison that kills all cells—even normal cells: It is possible that in the design of the experiment carried out only cancer cells were used but it had not been performed in healthy cells, which would imply the possibility that the fungus kills all the cells.

Cell samples were taken from too few patients: This may be another mistake because when only a small sample is analyzed it is not certain if the fungi are the ones that kill the cancer cells or are other conditions of the analyzed patient.

What do scientists use to mark boundaries in the geologic time scale?
tekilochka [14]

Era is used to mark the boundaries of geological time scale by using radio carbon dating technique.

Explanation:

Geological time starts with Precambrian time.

Geologically, time is divided between the Precambrian era and present time into era.

The three eras are Paleozoic era, Triassic period and Cenozoic era.

Era is further divided into periods.

Scientists use radio carbon dating to study fossils and rock formation. With this study they were able to divide them in exact geological scale.

Geologic scale is the record of events in earth's history and evolution.

How can you expect them to concern themselves with your problems?
gregori [183]
Definitely i would expect them to concern themselves with your problems when they are so beset with their own. Beset means having a lot of trouble with something, or having to deal with a lot of something causes problems. For example in a sentence; With the amount of traffic nowadays, even a trip across town is beset with dangers.
