5 goals of psychology?
Svetllana [295]
1. Describe - the first goal is to observe behavior and describe.
2. Explain - While descriptions come from observable data, psychologists must go beyond what is obvious and explain their observations. In other words, why did the subject do what he or she did?
3. Predict - Once we know what happens, and why it happens, we can begin to speculate what will happen in the future.
4. Control - Once we know what happens, why it happens and what is likely to happen in the future, we can excerpt control over it
5. Improve - Not only do psychologists attempt to control behavior, they want to do so in a positive manner, they want to improve a person’s life, not make it worse.

Sequence the steps, 1–4, in the order required to create a permanent slide of human cheek cells. [1 mark] Specimen dehydrated Sp
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The correct order is dehydration, embed in wax, cut into sections, staining

Explanation:

There are certain proceedings needed to obtain stained sections of vegetable or animal tissues for their microscope observations.

These steps are:

  • Obtention of the material: The tissue is cut to an adequate size.
  • Fixation: When tissues are extracted from the organism, they suffer autolysis and putrefaction, so they need to be fixated in order to keep their cells in the best state possible. Fixation involves preserving the original morphological and molecular characteristics of the tissue. Fixation avoids autolysis, putrefaction, distortion, and retraction of cells and the tissue that could affect its volume or morphology.  
  • Dehydration. Once fixated, the fixator must be eliminated and the tissue is dehydrated by using a gradual series of solutions with alcohol in ascendant concentrations. Dehydration must be gradual to avoid tissue deformation.
  • Inclusion. To obtain thin cuts that can be observed under the optic microscope, the tissues must be included in a consistent, firm substance, that might be either hydrophilic or hydrophobic. A hydrophobic medium is paraffin wax, that provides hardness and plasticity.  
  • Cut. The tissue included in wax must be cut in slides or sections thin enough to allow the diffusion and penetration of light. A microtome is used to perform these cuts. When using paraffine for tissue inclusion, the cuts are about  5 to 20 micrometers of thickness.
  • Stain. Once the cuts are performed, paraffin wax must be eliminated. This can be done by using an organic solvent. Then the tissue must be stained. Hematoxylin and Eosin are the most common dyes. Animal tissues in general do not have any natural color, so they need to be stained to be observed.

the guard cells take in minerals by active uptake from the cells next to them. Explain why water then passes into the guard cell
Step2247 [10]
When guard cells lose potassium ions, water diffuses out of the cells by osmosis. As water leaves the cells, they become flaccid and less bowed, which closes the stomata between them.
