Answer:

You would expect the accuracy to increase as you caught more fish since you are getting a bigger more precise population sample.

Your answer is A

Answer:

A. The estimate is usually more accurate.

Explanation:

When you are dealing with statistics the larger the sample you are taking, the most accurate and closer to the real population you get, in this case if you keep catching fishes to make samples from, you can get a more accurate estimate of the characteristics of the population. The least samples you take, the further from the actual population you get.

Describe how water goes through the hydrologic cycle, starting and ending with ocean water.
Lady bird [3.3K]

<span>Evaporation of warm surface water increases the amount of moisture in the colder, drier air flowing immediately above the lake surface. With continued evaporation, water vapor in the cold air condenses to form ice-crystal clouds, which are transported toward shore.</span>

By the time these clouds reach the shoreline, they are filled with snowflakes too large to remain suspended in the air and consequently, they fall along the shoreline as precipitation. The intensity of lake effect snowfall can be enhanced by additional lifting due to the topographical features (hills) along the shoreline. Once the snow begins to melt, the water is either absorbed by the ground and becomes groundwater, or goes returns back to the lake as runoff.

Lake effect snow events can produce tremendous amounts of snow. One such event was the Cleveland, Ohio Veteran's Day Snowstorm from November of 1996, where local storm snowfall totals exceeded 50 inches over two to three days.

<span>A Summary of the Hydrologic Cyclebringing all the pieces together<span> 
<span>Animation by: Bramer</span></span>The hydrologic cycle begins with the evaporation of water from the surface of the ocean. As moist air is lifted, it cools and water vapor condenses to form clouds. Moisture is transportedaround the globe until it returns to the surface as precipitation. Once the water reaches the ground, one of two processes may occur; 1) some of the water may evaporate back into the atmosphere or 2) the water may penetrate the surface and become groundwater. Groundwater either seeps its way to into the oceans, rivers, and streams, or is released back into the atmosphere through transpiration. The balance of water that remains on the earth's surface is runoff, which empties into lakes, rivers and streams and is carried back to the oceans, where the cycle begins again.Lake effect snowfall is good example of the hydrologic cycle at work. Below is a vertical cross-section summarizing the processes of the hydrologic cycle that contribute to the production of lake effect snow. The cycle begins as cold winds (horizontal blue arrows) blow across a large lake, a phenomena that occurs frequently in the late fall and winter months around the Great Lakes.</span>

A synapse is a(n) question 27 options:
Sladkaya [172]

The synapse is the junction present between two neurons.  

In a synapse, the electric impulses are transferred in the form of chemical molecule, which is also known as neurotransmitter. The synapse receives the signals from the sender neuron also known as presynaptic neuron to the receiver neuron, also called as postsynaptic neuron.

Hence, the correct answer is option c. junction between a sending neuron and a receiving neuron.
