HACTEHA [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Imperfect science can be described as the scientific study of a research/field that is not complete or is characterized with a number of faults. While there are many scientific research fields or focus that fall under this category (because scientists are constantly seeking to improve existing knowledge of various scientific field), let's limit our scope to DNA evidence analysis.

DNA evidence testing for instance is very expensive which makes it difficult (in most cases) for victims to request for it in cases of crime (except requested by the government). For instance, if a killing that involves a struggle was done in a small neighborhood of about a 100 people with no visual confirmation of the killer but just some blood samples of the killer, DNA evidence testing might still not be used in a case like this despite the  crime happening in a relatively small community.

Also, since DNA evidence testing relies on the gene and there is a lot of research going on at the moment on genes (including gene mapping and locus system) which can assist to lower the number of suspects by predicting the origins of suspects. It should be noted that reducing the number of suspects reduces the amount that will be spent on DNA analysis of the suspects (since there are fewer suspects).

Explain the importance of independent and dependent variables in an experiment.
ddd [48]

Answer: Independent variable is what is being modified, it is important to compare it to your control group, (which is the original).

Dependent variable is what is being measured, to compare it to the control group to see if your hypothesis works or not.

Explanation: Here's a(n) example:

Bob wanted to take a mint with a mint drop, and he wanted to measure if it can make his breath fresher, but he also wanted to take it with a regular mint to see which is the freshest breath.

lakkis [162]

Answer:

550 milliliters of water is needed.

Explanation:

the student will need 550 milliliters of water for completing the whole experiment. 250 milliliters of water is needed for  boiling purpose while on the other hand, 100 milliliters of water is needed for one process which can be repeated three times so the process needs 300 milliliters of water so by combining the 250 milliliters and 300 550 milliliters of water we get 550 milliliters of water for the whole experiment so we can say that the student needs 550 milliliters of water for the experiment.
