Cornelius Agrippa (1486-1535) was a German mystic who practiced a "science" that combined alchemy, magic, mysticism, and astrology. Two of his books are Three Books of Occult Philosophy and On Calling Spirits. Through the writing of Agrippa, Frankenstein becomes very interested in alchemy, which is a pseudoscience whose main object is to find a way of turning base metals into gold. You could say that Frankenstein adapted the thinking of the alchemists and instead of transforming other metals into gold attempted to transform a corpse into a living being.
An interesting story about Agrippa concerns sightings of him after his death:
There were rumors that Agrippa had summoned demons on his death bed, and that a black dog roamed the countryside as his familiar. The black dog appears in tales as Faustus, Mephistopheles, and even as a grim in the Harry Potter series.
Plants such as the cactus reside in the desert biome.
Different people are affected by COVID-19 in various ways. The symptoms experienced by infected individuals have ranged widely, from little discomfort to serious sickness.
- The susceptibility to and prognosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome caused by coronavirus 2 or coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been found to vary greatly amongst individuals and populations.
- Intervention in public health must take into account these variations and how they affect susceptibility to infection and the severity of disease.
- The distinctions between the COVID-19 case profiles from China and North America may be due to regional variations in host, environmental, and healthcare-related factors.
- These inter-population variances, together with intra-population variability, highlight the need to identify how health inequities and inequalities affect the public health response to COVID-19 and can help with preparing for the epidemic's resurgence.

Answer:
The correct option is<em> D) Models are not the "real thing" so it will never correctly represent the system in all respects.</em>
Explanation:
Scientific modelling can be described as a representation of the scientific theories or concepts in a way that can be better understood. Scientific models makes it easier to understand what physical, chemical or mechanical activity is taking place. Even mathematical representation comes under scientific modelling.
As models are not the real, hence they cannot be considered to be perfectly accurate. A model can never mark up to the complexity of nature.
