Answer:

E. Interleukin-1

Explanation:

Interleukin-1 is produced by macrophages and is involved in promoting the proliferation of helper T cells. Interleukin-1 also acts on the hypothalamus to cause fever. Fever refers to abnormally high body temperature. During infection and inflammation, the hypothalamic thermostat is reset in response to interleukin-1 resulting in fever. The presence of certain bacterial toxins in the body triggers the release of interleukin-1 from macrophages and the body temperature is elevated. Fever inhibits the growth of some microbes, intensifies the effects of interferons, and stimulates the body's immune reactions.

Which factor distinguishes the experimental group from the control group
AysviL [449]
A control group is sort of the normal group. The group you aren't changing or messing with. It is to show what the species/experiment acts like on its own in response to something without you having to change it at all. 

With an experimental group, you are changing something about the subject before putting it in the conditions it will need to respond to. 

I don't entirely understand, but I know the control group is constant, unchanging. It sort of helps with distinguishing things. I have examples of experiments if that will help you understand what a control group is to answer the question. I also have a The Death Cure example if you have seen or read the book. I hope you do not fail this assignment, but even if I did not answer with an answer you were looking for, it could have helped you answer the question on your own. 

I saw somewhere a similar question, though I was given the answer choices. If this is the answer you are looking for: variable(s).

Control groups don't use variables because you aren't changing them.

Is human development best characterized as a slow, gradual process, or is it best viewed as one of more abrupt change?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Heyya!

Human development is a slow and gradual process. There seems to be slow and gradual change that becomes abrupt change. The mind has many connections and works according to past habits. A person who seeks to improve themselves will gradually change specific areas within their life. After a while there is a cascade effect that causes linked areas to be altered. Skills and methods that required practice and habit forming transition to being a natural part of life.  When the personality suddenly changes, I use the term evolution. Whenever one occurs, the person will probably see their past self as problematic.
