An example of a false negative is taking an HIV test and having the test come back negative to say the patient is clean, but in reality they have HIV. Another example of a false negative is a woman taking a pregnancy test saying "not pregnant" (i.e. test is negative), but she actually is pregnant. Between those two examples, it is better to have a false negative pregnancy test because it is non life threatening.
A false positive example would be getting bad news you have cancer, when you actually don't have cancer. Another false positive example is a test saying you have a cold virus, when in actuality you don't. The first example mentioned would have the patient likely go through intense chemo treatments which would greatly affect their livelihood. The second example is a more harmless false positive as it would involve at most a flu shot if anything.
Answer: The answer should be A: Precipitation.
Explanation: When we take a look at this question, it mentions that there is dew, fog, and clouds on the planet. Infiltration would have probably been evaporated from the ground and became a cloud. The dew and fog would be the condensation. The astronomers notice that there is never any rainfall, and precipitation in the water cycle is rainfall. So therefore, the missing part of the water cycle would be precipitation
Yes they do, indoor plants remove pollutants from the air by absorbing these gases through their leaves and roots.
People who are lactose intolerant are unable to digest lactose, the sugar commonly found in dairy, because their bodies don't make the enzyme lactase.
Lactase works by breaking down lactose into a simpler sugar that can be used by the body. Without it, lactose is not absorbed by the body & remains in the waste where gut bacteria metabolize it & cause the bloating, gas & other similar discomforts experienced by the lactose intolerant.
Hope that helps!
In truth, though, it is the non-lactose intolerant people that are the mutants. Not the other way around. Most wild animals don't consume milk after they have been weaned & it's just something humans developed to accommodate their diet.
