Which choice best summarizes the outcome of Reid’s experiment

Biology
1 answer:
Ilya [14]4 years ago
6 0

This question seems to be incomplete because the experiment is not described but it is possible to answer it.

The correct answer is B. Redi disproved spontaneous generation.

Explanation:

Francesco Redi was an important scientist during the 17th century known for his experiments about maggots in rotten meat. This is because during Redi's time it was believed rotten meat was the origin of maggots because maggots seemed to emerge from this. Additionally, this perception was related to the spontaneous generation or the idea life can emerge from non-living materials. The results of this experiment show the idea about spontaneous generation was not true in the case of meat and maggots because maggots were simply the result of eggs flies laid on rotten meat. This means this experiment disproved spontaneous generation.

Is balamuthia mandrillaris a public health concern worldwide?
True [87]
Balamuthia mandrillaris is an amoeba that was discovered in 1986 in the brain of the baboon that dies in San Diego Wild Animal Park. This can be found in the soil and water, therefore it is freely living. It is known to cause the neurological condition known as granulomatous amoebic encephalitis. In a study published by National Center for Biotechnology Information, it has a case fatality rate of >98%. Majority of this case can be found in warmer regions that affects individuals mostly of Hispanic origin. Documented cases had been reported from the Latin Americas in significant number, followed by the United States, Asian regions and some in Europe. However, a specific number of cases worldwide may never be known due to the following factors: lack of awareness, poor diagnosis and a poor public health system.

It is still yet to be known if its a serious public health concern worldwide.

When studying animal behavior, the distribution of organisms within a choice chamber can be studied to identify animal preferenc
Komok [63]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Random distribution of the Isopods should be 50/50 in A and B.

Chi-square = \frac{(O - E)^2}{E} where O = observed frequency and E = expected frequency

Chamber         O                    E             Chi-square

  A                   18                   10             \frac{(18 - 10)^2}{10} = 6.4

  B                    2                    10             \frac{(2 - 10)^2}{10} = 6.4

<em>Total Chi-square </em>= 6.4 + 6.4 = 12.8

<em>Degree of freedom</em> = 2 - 1 = 1

<em>Tabulated Chi-square</em> (α = 0.05) = 3.8415

The calculated Chi-square exceeds the critical value, hence, it is significant and not due to random.

<em>The correct option is </em><em>c</em><em>.</em>
