When reading a graduated cylinder, a proper way to do it is to read at the level of the lower or upper meniscus. It is the curve formed at the upper part of a particular liquid that is close the surface of its container. This is caused by the surface tension. It can be in a concave or convex form depending on the characteristics of the liquid. It is important especially in performing laboratory experiments as it indicates the true level of the liquid in the container. When reading from apparatus, the lower meniscus or the upper meniscus is taken as the correct reading otherwise you would record a wrong data.

Why did you choose NOT to use a correlational design?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

D. You cannot infer causality from a correlational study.

Explanation:

In correctional design, the main focus of the researcher is to find out the relationships that will be naturally formed if two or more variables are paired with one another.

But, sometimes the relationships that are naturally formed do not necessarily caused by the interaction by the variables.

Here is an example:

Variable 1 : Older age

Variable 2: Conservatism

On average, as people grow older , people tend to have a more conservative political view compared to the younger generations. (There is a correlation between the two)

But, the conservative ideology is not necessarily caused by the age itself. Inability to follow the current cultural trend would more likely play a bigger factor.
