Answer:

Study of evolution; evolutionary

Explanation:

This is the study that looks at the characteristics that we inherited from our ancestors .

Due to evolution our inherited traits have changed over time in order to adapt with the change in the environment or with the changing conditions of each time.

This may mean that even though our ancestors were able to tolerate such fats it was because it was necessary for their survival at that particular period and their body demanded it .

However the time and the conditions have changed for us, we are no longer living under conditions that demand that much fats in our bodies hence those traits have weakened .

An experimenter provides hints as to the preferred responses. the result is that the study produces results consistent with the hypothesis. However, the results may reflect: Experimentor bias.

Bias can occur in a variety of ways, including manipulating results, selecting certain participants knowingly, and selecting certain participants unknowingly.

If a researcher knows the outcome of their experiment ahead of time, it is possible that bias will be introduced into their research in order to prove their hypothesis correct.

For example, if a scientist is researching the effects of tobacco and already knows that it is harmful to the body, they may conduct an experiment in which they force their participants to consume tobacco in excessive amounts in order to prove their hypothesis correct.

Whose law states the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the absolute pressure applied to it when the temperature is ke
Svetllana [295]

Answer: Boyle's law.

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

P_1V_1=P_2V_2  

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas

P_2 = final pressure of gas

V_1 = initial volume of gas  

V_2 = final volume of gas

Therefore, the law which states the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the absolute pressure applied to it when the temperature is kept constant is Boyle's law.
