The likeliness of an infection given that the repair is successful is obtained by dividing the probability of both infection and unsuccessful procedures together along with probability of both infection and successful procedures together.  Therefore, in this case, It can be expected that about 2.33% of times that infection will although the repair is successful.

If someone told you that plate tectonics is just a theory and that it hasn’t been accepted as a law yet, how would this informat
ch4aika [34]

Answer: There are few ‘laws’ in science. Those ‘laws’ are so named for historical reasons, but they are theoretical in nature. They set out what happens when a theory is applied in practice. A theory is simply the best explanation we have for understanding why some process takes place and predicting what the result will be.

Explanation: Anyone who describes something as “just a theory” does not understand what a theory is. Laws are arbitrary human rules. Theories are severely tested and re-tested explanations of why things happen in the real physical world and can be used to make predictions about outcomes.

Some would say that theories are about why something happens and laws (in science) describe what happens. But this simply makes a scientific ‘law’ a subset of a scientific theory, explaining how to make predictions.

Which of the broad categories of resource use account for a disproportionate (or the largest) amount of your ecological footprin
enot [183]

The total productive areas in which a population, a person, or a product competes are tallied as ecological footprint. It gauges the ecological resources needed by a particular population or product to produce the natural resources it consumes (such as plant-based food and fiber products, livestock and fish products, timber and other forest products, and space for urban infrastructure), as well as to absorb its waste, particularly carbon emissions.

<h3>What is ecological reserve/deficit?</h3>

An ecological deficit happens when a population's ecological footprint exceeds the biocapacity of the space that population has access to. If a country has a national ecological deficit, it is either importing biocapacity through commerce, selling off its ecological resources, or releasing carbon dioxide waste into the sky. When a region's biocapacity surpasses its population's ecological footprint, an ecological reserve is created.

Compare and contrast correlational and experimental research by designing two types of studies that aim to answer the same quest
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Correlation means that there is a relationship between two or more variables (such as ice cream consumption and crime), but this relationship does not necessarily imply cause and effect. When two variables are correlated, it simply means that as one variable changes, so does the other. We can measure correlation by calculating a statistic known as a correlation coefficient. A correlation coefficient is a number from -1 to +1 that indicates the strength and direction of the relationship between variables. The correlation coefficient is usually represented by the letter r.
