Explanation:

A hydrogen bond is a common type of chemical bond in organisms. As the name suggests, this type of bond involves a hydrogen atom. The hydrogen is attracted to a strongly electronegative atom, such as oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen of a polar covalent bond in the same or another molecule.

This gives water unique properties, such as a relatively high boiling point, high specific heat, cohesion, adhesion and density.

Explain the compatility of blood groups during blood transfusion

Alinara [238K]

the blood groups are (A ,B,AB,O)
THE blood group AB is called the universal receiver because any other blood group can be compatible with this blood group this is due to the absence of anti-bodies in this type
while blood group O is called the universal donor because it is compatible with all blood groups due to the absence of antigen (A and B)
while blood group A receives blood from itself and O and donates blood to itself and AB the same thing goes with blood group B

As the sample size increases, the t-distribution becomes more similar to the ________ distribution. a. normal b. binomial c. chi

kvv77 [185]

As the sample size increases, the t-distribution becomes more similar to the normal distribution.

Option: A

Explanation:

Student t-distribution is any member of a group or family of constant probability distributions that emerge in circumstances where the sample size is limited and the standard deviation of the population is unspecified when calculating the mean of a naturally distributed population.

The z-distribution implies you are conscious of the normal population deviation (never in case) when used for sample means. The t-distribution is focused on using the standard sample deviation as an approximation of the standard deviation in population.
