Answer:

observational study

Explanation:

An observational study differs from an experimental study, in that researchers only observe the effect of a treatment, risk factor and other factors without altering the subjects. This enables the researcher to draw inferences from the subjects in  a population.

In an experimental study, subjects are randomly assigned to treatment groups and given treatments, results are then analyzed to make inferences.

In the question above, the subjects (residents) were not given any form of treatments, questionnaires were only given to observe the effect of exercise on blood pressure, therefore, it is an observational study.

That is the simplest strategy to remain alcohol-free because there will be no chance of peer pressure. A study done by The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism found that In 2015, 7.7 million young people ages 12–20 reported that they drank alcohol beyond “just a few sips” and that is greatly due to pressure from other teens.

Which of the following is part of a bacterial cell? A) a cell wall B) lysosomes C) mitochondria D) a nucleus
monitta
I believe it is lysosomes, because all cells have a cell wall which pretty much limits what goes in and out of the cell as a mitochondria is storage for food and stuff like that. also a nucleus is pretty much the cells brain so all cells have one.
