Which statement do you think is a scientific claim?
NeTakaya

Plants fertilized once per week with Super Plant Food Formula have been shown in testing to produce twice as much fruit as plants that are not.

Explanation:

A scientific claim out of the options is that plants fertilized once per week with Super Plant Food Formula have been shown in testing to produce twice as much fruit as plants that are not.

A scientific claim is usually drawn from the result of an experiment that follows the detailed scientific steps.

  • In the last statement we see that word "testing ".
  • This suggests that an experiment must have been conducted before the claim was made.
  • To test a claim, a hypothesis is usually drawn out.
  • From the hypothesis we can test an observation and answer questions using the data obtained in the experiment.
  • Before the assertion was made, experiments have been conducted.
  • The other options are claims that have not been tested.

1.Where is there more atmospheric pressure, in New Orleans, at sea level, or Mt. Everest? Why? a. New Orleans, because pressure
sineoko [7]

Answer:

a. New Orleans, because pressure increases as you get deeper in the atmosphere and closer to the center of Earth

Explanation:  

  • Low altitudes: There is more atmospheric pressure in comparison with higher altitudes. When closer to the Earth core, the more pressure and temperature there is.
  • High Altitudes: As high increases, atmospheric pressure, and temperature, decreases, leading to a lower oxygen partial pressure in the environment.

At sea level, the atmosphere pressures the earth's surface with approximately 1-kilogram per square centimeter strength. This means that at sea level, there is one ton of air making pressure over us. But this air pressure decreases with altitude.  

At high level there is less air making pressure from above, and there is less gravity acting. Molecules are more separate from each other, and the density decreases.

George on one pair of his chromosomes has STRs of lengths 6 and 7, Stephen (his father) STRs of lengths 3 and 6, and Mary (his m
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Stephen is not his biological father.

Explanation:

DNA fingerprinting is a technique use to determine the DNA sequence of an individual organism. Short tandem repeats are unique among the individuals ans used to identify the individual in population.

The George DNA fingerprinting shows that he has STRs length of 6 and 7. Stephen's STRs does not match with his son George whereas Mary shows some similarities with George STRs. This indicates that Stephen is not the biological father of George because the biological father's STRs must match with the children STRs.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).
