Answer:

The options

a. riboflavin

b. vitamin D

c. pantothenic acid

d. folic acid

The CORRECT ANSWER IS d.

d. Folic acid

Explanation:

Having a healthy baby means staying healthy. Getting sufficient folic acid each day — mostly before conception and at early pregnancy as it reduces risk of serious neural tube defects (partial development of the brain and spinal cord) to a very large extent.

Folic acid (or folate) is a B vitamin (B9) found majorly in dark green vegetables (broccoli and spinach), legumes(beans and peas) and enriched grains.

It is essential for all women of childbearing age to get sufficient folic acid (necessary for cell growth and development plus DNA formation too)— not just those who are trying to conceive.

A train car is to a train, as a _____________________ is to a polymer as a molecule is to a __________________________.
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Polymer (macromolecules), monomer (building blocks

Explanation:

Polymers are comparable to the train as polymers are made up of several monomers linked together to carry more but can be removed from the polymer if required similarly the train cars that are comparable to the monomers or building block are joined together but can be taken off.

Macromolecules are polymers that are made up of joining monomers together and makes large molecules. Macromolecules like carbohydrates are made up of monosaccharides as monomers, proteins are made up of amino acids as monomer or building block, lipids are made up of fatty acids and nucleic acid are made up of nucleotides.

Explain how critical value variations influence statistical power.
zloy xaker [14]
Statistical power is the likelihood that a test (statistical test) will detect an effect when there is an effect there to be detected. Statistical power<span> is inversely related to </span><span>the probability of making a </span>Type II error (Type II errors<span>, or </span>false negatives, occur when you don’t see things that are there) = beta<span>.
statistical power = 1 – </span>β. The critical value<span> is the </span>value corresponding to a given significance level.  The statistical power<span> is </span>influenced by the choice of significance level for the test (by the critical value). Larger critical value means increased power of the test: <span> the chance of obtaining a statistically significant result is increased (reduces the risk of a </span>Type II error<span> (false negative regarding whether an effect exists) is reduced) . </span>
