Falsifiable is the adjective form of the verb "falsify," which in science means "prove (a statement or theory) to be false."
DNA replication is the process by which two DNA molecules are produced from one parent DNA molecule. DNA replication is semi conservative, this implies that, each strand in the double helix DNA molecule act as a template for the synthesis of a new, complimentary DNA strand. Because semi conservative method has a DNA template that is already accurately formed, the probability of having errors in the newly formed strand is drastically reduced.
Answer: A group of scientists wants to determine whether a relationship exists between alcohol consumption and certain types of cancer. To this end, scientists provide study participants with a questionnaire asking them how many alcoholic drinks they have per week and what diseases they have (if any). These scientists provide subjects with a similar questionnaire annually (for a decade). These scientists are performing an ASSOCIATION STUDY.
Explanation: Association study is observational study in different individuals to see if a particular behavioral pattern (such as alcohol consumption) can be associated with certain type of disease (such as cancer).
Information collected from the questionnaires distributed will be subjected to statistical analysis and conclusion(s) will be made.
