Answer:

The upper lateral quadrant.

Explanation:

The breast is a glandular and fatty tissue that lies on the top of the pectoral muscles of the chest. It is made up of fatty tissues, glands, and connective tissue ligaments that attach it to the muscles.

The glands are the functional units as they are where the milk is produced. These glands are divided into 15 to 20 lobes of glands demarcated by fatty and connective tissues. Each lobe is made up of lobules where milk is produced. They are various ducts that carry the milk and they open up on the nipple.

The breast is usually divided into four imaginary quadrants during clinical examination. The upper lateral quadrant has an extension of breast tissues into the armpit. This is referred to as the Tail of Spence or axillary tail.

The tail of Spence has axillary lymph nodes around it and plays a key role in the diagnosis of breast cancer.

A student does an experiment for a science fair to study whether temperature affects the timing of a cricket’s chirps. The stu
nexus9112 [7]

The frequency of chirps increases as the temperature increases. The correct option is B. <em>The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases.  </em>

-------------------------------

<h2><u>Available data:</u></h2>

<h3>Data recorded by the student </h3>

<em><u>Day      Temperature   Average time between chirps (sec)</u></em>

1            21                             2. 5

2           22                            2. 6

3           23                            2. 2

4           24                            2. 3

5           25                            2. 0

6           26                             1. 8

7           27                              1. 9

8           28                             1. 8

9          29                             1. 4

10          30                             1. 2

11           31                              1. 5

<u>12          32                             1. 1</u>

In this experiment the student recorded the time in seconds <u>between </u><u>chirps</u>.

We can see that <em>as the </em><em>temperature increases</em><em>, in general, the</em><em> time</em><em> between</em><em> chirps decreases</em>.

  • At 21ºC the time between chirps is 2.5 seconds
  • At 26ºC the time between chirps is 1.8 seconds
  • At 32ºC the time between chirps is 1.1 seconds

According to this information, if the average time between chirps decreases with the temperature increase, we can assume that<em> the </em><em>frequency</em><em> of chirps </em><em>increases</em><em> as the temperature gets higher. </em>

<h3>Options,</h3>

<em>A) The higher the temperature, the fewer chirps there will be in 10 seconds</em>.

Wrong. The number of chirps in 10 seconds will depend, not only on the frequency but also on how long the chirps last. Since the student did not record the time of chirps, we can not make this conclusion.  

<em>B) The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases</em>.

True. The chirps increase in frequency as the temperature increases, so they occur closer together.

<em>C) The chirps become farther apart as the temperature increases</em>.

Wrong. We can see how the time between chirps decreases as temperature increases, meaning that they are closer not farther.

D) There is no relationship between temperature and the time between chirps.

Wrong. If we make a graph we will see the tendency and the relationship between chirps and temperature.

Graphs usually explain the relationship between variables. In this example, the relationship would be inverse.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASEEEE HELP ME WITH THIS SCIENCE QUESTION I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST !!!

Answer:

When the rule of 70 applies to population, dividing 70 by the percentage of population growth should equal the time (in years) that the population needs to be double (option A)

Explanation:

The rule of 70 is useful to calculate the time in which a variable of any type can be duplicated. The calculation is done by dividing the number 70 by the percentage of growth of the variable.

<u>If the rule of 70 is applied to the population, it is possible to calculate, based on its growth rate, the time that population would need to double</u>.

If, for example, the growth rate of a population is 3 percent:

70 / 3 = 23,33

This indicates that a population, with a growth rate of 3% would need about 23,33 years to double.
