An interesting observation made by the firefighters was that some parts of the forest seemed to escape the flames. The crown fir

e would drop down into a ground fire in these areas, and then jump back up into the canopy as the fire burned into adjacent areas. They observed that many of these areas had previously been thinned, which means that some of the trees were cut down and hauled away to be used as timber. In other areas, thinned forests burned with as much severity as the unthinned forest. Your objective is to design an observational study to help answer the question: What was the determining factor for areas that escaped the worst impacts of the fire, compared to areas that were severely burned?

Answer:

According to the previous observational study it is possible to notice that thinning determined in great way the rate of trees that survived the fire.

Explanation:

In general the trees that had been previously cut, were the ones that presented more resistance to the fire, while the trees that had not been thinned were the ones that were severely affected in the spreading conflagration. Reason why in comparison of these two samples, it would be possible to conclude that previously cutting down trees can survive better to the spreading fire.

Why might the knoblike proteins on the outer surface of hiv hold a key to the production of a vaccine against aids?
Nataly_w [17]

This is because the GP120 protein of the HIV virus that forms the ‘knob’ is essential for the infection of CD4 cells of the immune system by the virus. The glycoprotein is, therefore, a good target for vaccines especially since the molecule is highly conserved because most mutations in the region could be highly deleterious to the virus.

<span>In theory, to gain a pound of body weight per week, one must consume an additional 1,000 calories per day. An approximate 3,500 calories is equivalent to a pound of body weight. If a person continuously consumes more than 3,500 calories over a period of time it is expected that this person will gain 1 pound of weight. <span>

<span>Nutritionists usually suggest that an underweight person should add between 500-1,000 calories per day to encourage a 1-2 pound increase in body weight. Because being underweight sacrifices one's immunity and overall health.</span></span></span>
