The statement candidates will be fixed up and trained for the election, as racing horses will be fixed up and trained best explains the reason for this analogy.

Option- C.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The "horse-race" or "gambling framework" story is a popular electoral coverage. "From decades of research we know that media aim to watch elections through competitive lens," Lawrence said.

"Campaigns are portrayed in many respects, including sports events, with an emphasis on who wins, who loses, who's up and who's down, whether we go forward or back in the elections." In addition to political bias, reporters across different media outlets promote biasing views by distilling in simple texts complex campaigns and issues.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

In the explanation.

Explanation:

Electroencephalogram (EEG). Due to his problem with staying awake, Akira’s doctor has scheduled an <em>overnight sleep study</em>. Such studies often include the diagnostic method of Electroencephalogram (EEG), which can help to assess brain activity both during awake and sleep hours. This procedure will help to identify if Akira’s condition is a result of pathological electrical activity in his cerebral cortex. For example, if he is suffering from epilepsy.

Stimulants. In order to improve his condition at school, Akira consumes <em>coffee and energy drinks</em>, which belong to the category of stimulants. Such drinks have this property largely because they contain caffeine. Caffeine is known for its ability to increase the activity of the central nervous system. This type of stimulant is a natural compound of coffee and tea plants and thus is a very widely available stimulant. Energy drinks are reported to contain caffeine in much more significant amounts than coffee and tea.

Melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone produced in the human brain. It is responsible for sleep and wakefulness patterns. Because Akira is a student, he is likely to use electronic devices, like smartphones and computers, for many hours per day. The wide array of scientific research has connected trouble sleeping to the use of electronic devices because their screens emit blue light. The blue light suppresses the production of melatonin in the brain and can cause sleep disorders like insomnia.  After asking all the necessary questions about Akira's lifestyle and habits his doctor might advise to reducing exposure to the blue light.

Narcolepsy. Narcolepsy is a neurological disorder that is characterized by an <em>inability to stay awake.</em> The medical examination and study that Akira will undergo will help his doctor to identify if Akira is suffering from narcolepsy. Narcolepsy is a rare condition that can be easily mistaken for secondary hypersomnia, which is on the contrary very common. Secondary means that it is a result of the other (primary) condition or disorder, like obesity, sleep apnea or clinical depression. Once Akira’s doctor will run all necessary diagnoses and will identify the cause of Akira’s condition, he will receive a respective treatment.

Explain why the average cell size is similar in blue whale and in an earthworm.<br> Worth 20 points
Levart [38]

Answer: Limited Surface area - Volume ratio

Explanation:

Cells in various organisms usually have the same size be it a blue whale or an earthworm, a Human or a mouse or an Elephant and a squirrel. This is down to the way the cell is structure.

The Cell needs to absorb nutrients to survive while getting rid of waste material. For that to happen it needs an adequate surface area. The problem is that as the cell absorbs more nutrients thereby increasing in volume, this rise in volume occurs at a faster rate than the cell can increase its surface area so the surface area will keep shrinking.

Therefore, in order to have enough surface area to keep up the process of absorption and excrement, the cell will stop growing at the certain point and this process is similar in most if not all organisms.
