In 1668, Francesco Redi, an Italian scientist, conducted an experiment with jars of meat. This experiment was noteworthy because it disapproved the hypothesis of spontaneous generation. He placed fresh meat in each of two separate jars. One of the jars was left open and the other was covered with a cloth. A few days later, the open jar contained maggots while the covered jar contained no maggots, although there were maggots on the exterior surface of the cloth covering the jar.

In what type of situations would random sampling (last lab) be useful?

egoroff_w [7]

In some types of research the target population might be as broad as all humans, but in other types of research the target population might be a smaller group such as teenagers, pre-school children or people who misuse drugs.

It is more or less impossible to study every single person in a target population so psychologists select a sample or sub-group of the population that is likely to be representative of the target population we are interested in.

This is important because we want to generalize from the sample to target population. The more representative the sample, the more confident the researcher can be that the results can be generalized to the target population.

One of the problems that can occur when selecting a sample from a target population is sampling bias. Sampling bias refers to situations where the sample does not reflect the characteristics of the target population.

Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)(05.05 MC)How does the human immune system initially respond to a pathogen?

Rufina [12.5K]

Immediately, the pathogen has been recognized:

Macrophages acts as the first line of defence by engulfing pathogens identified by antigens which will now present the antibody shape to a helper T cell.

The Helper T cells produce a signal to plasma and Memory B cells to yield antibodies that attach to the antigens. The cytotoxic cells that leads to cell death are activated by the helper T cells.

Antibodies helps to immobilize pathogen for macrophage to feed on.

if the pathogen comes back a 2nd time the memory cells helps in quick and efficient recovery by producing the specific B and T cells for the antigen.

What describes skeletal muscles

Mashutka [201]

"Skeletal muscle, also called voluntary muscle, in vertebrates, most common of the three types of muscle in the body. Skeletal muscles are attached to bones by tendons, and they produce all the movements of body parts in relation to each other. Unlike smooth muscle and cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle is under voluntary control. Similar to cardiac muscle, however, skeletal muscle is striated; its long, thin, multinucleated fibres are crossed with a regular pattern of fine red and white lines, giving the muscle a distinctive appearance. Skeletal muscle fibres are bound together by connective tissue and communicate with nerves and blood vessels."
