To create a simulation of 20,000 sheep grazing in an isolated valley, a scientist needs to determine the average amount of grass

eaten per day by an actual sheep. Which of the following is the best course of action for establishing this parameter?
A. Divide the total amount of grass eaten by all sheep in the valley by 20,000.
B. Determine the average daily grass consumption for 20 randomly selected sheep.
C. Choose a random value to use as the daily amount of grass eaten by one sheep.
D. Measure the amount of grass eaten per day by a single sheep.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. "Determine the average daily grass consumption for 20 randomly selected sheep".

Explanation:

One common approach to study a population with a very large number of individuals is to randomly select a sample and perform the study on it. This approach has the advantage that any individual could be selected, which makes more feasible that the sample is representative of the population. In this case, to know the average amount of grass eaten per day by an actual sheep to make a simulation of 20,000 sheep, it is feasible to determine the average daily grass consumption for 20 randomly selected sheep. The 20 sheep must be studied determining the average amount of grass eaten and the variability among the population.

Two butterflies mate and a genetic mutation causes the offspring to be a different color. Is this an example of biological evolu
brilliants [131]

A genetic mutation results in the offspring of two butterflies being a different color. There is no evidence of biological evolution in this.

In populations of organisms, biological evolution is the change in hereditary features through successive generations. When diversity is added to a population through gene mutation or genetic recombination or removed by natural selection or genetic drift, features undergo evolutionary alteration. the gradual genetic change within a population. What is the most likely outcome if two species rejoin after many generations if allopatric speciation has place after a population split into two different populations?

I'm doing the fresh fruit vs canned fruit experiment and if I prepared the fruit a different way would it effect the gelatin
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

How the gelatin is prepared can affect the result.

Explanation:

To perform this experiment efficiently, you need to prepare the jelly made from fresh fruit and the jelly made from canned fruit equally. That's because if you modify the ways of preparing the gelatins, they will show many differences and you won't be able to tell if this difference was caused only by the nature of the fruits, or by the way of preparation. Therefore, the way the gelatins were prepared can modify the experiment result and leave it imprecise and unreliable.
