Extraneous

An <em>extraneous variable</em> is a variable in an experiment that you are not intentionally studying. These variables usually provide undesired affects on the experiment.

In this example, the independent variable is whether a sentence is humorous or not, and the dependent variable is the memory performance score. However, because the humorous sentences are only given to males, and the non-humorous sentences are only given to females, gender becomes an extraneous variable as you are not intentionally testing gender's relation to the dependent variable, but it is still affecting the experiment.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

A legislation is a law in a typical definition, to enable a law, that ,means you want to establish a law, you want to create a balance in a running system, there are defrauders that you want to stop or catch, you want to create an enabling environment were there is peace and harmony. All these are reasons behind enabling a legislation.

To bracket the question to the answers given, enabling a legislation, you are creating a congress, because some set of people must sit to create this legislation, option a is close to the answer but administrative agency doesn't not create a law, yes they are given power to carry out operations but not to create a law, that is why option c is the best to the question. Enabling a legislation, you are creating a congress, giving then right to oversee an issue and creating a law, because it is only such congress that can carry out the act of enabling a legislation.

Which two cities in the Middle Atlantic colonies we're important centers of shipbuilding?
Dmitrij [34]
As early as the 1640s Swedish boat builders fabricated several small craft on the Delaware River in their short-lived New Sweden colony, but large-scale shipbuilding started when William Penn (1644-1718)<span> settled his great proprietary grant of Pennsylvania between 1681-1682 with skilled Quaker artisans and maritime merchants escaping the religious persecution (sufferings) in old Britain and seeking economic opportunity in the New World. In fact, six years before he founded Philadelphia, Penn had helped shipwright </span>James West (d. 1701)<span> develop a small shipyard in 1676 along the Delaware Riverfront in what later became Vine Street in the city of Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Penn recruited Welsh, Irish, Scot and English Quaker craftsmen who were involved in shipbuilding in Bristol, England, and more fully along the Thames River, already by 1682 a great center of ship construction and merchant houses. Indeed the Southwark section of London’s Thames riverfront soon gave rise to the Southwark shipbuilding and merchant community along the Delaware riverfront of Philadelphia. When the Philadelphia riverfront became too crowded with merchant docks and buildings for establishment of shipyards, many shipwrights moved a few miles upriver to the Kensington neighborhood that soon rivaled Southwark as a shipbuilding center on the Delaware River.</span>
