g ability of spiders. Which of the following statements is an incorrect use of terms pertaining to the scientific method?a) Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders. b) Robert made the observation that spiders weave webs. c) As a control, Robert had a group of spiders that were never exposed to cigarette smoke. d) Robert examined the webs from both the control group and the test group and the data were recorded in a table. e) Robert concluded that there was no significant difference in the ability to weave a web under conditions of cigarette smoke compared to spiders that were not exposed.

The correct answer is A. Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders.

Explanation:

In the scientific method and science, the correct term to define the explanation proposed by a scientist about the phenomenon or event he wants to study is a hypothesis. On the other hand, the term theory in science is used to refer to explanations that have been repeatedly proved or confirmed. This implies the idea "cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders" in Robert's experiment is a hypothesis and not a theory and therefore, the statement "Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders" contains an incorrect use of a scientific term.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

1. Cell

2. cell theory

3. Organismal theory

4. resolving power

Explanation:

The cell is the smallest known unit of all living organisms. They are called the building blocks of life. An organism can be unicellular (made up of one cell) or multi-cellular (made up of many cells).

2. Cell theory was formulated and developed  by Schleiden, Schwann, and Virchow. They are considered as the basic principles of biology.

It states:

1. Living organisms are made up of cells.

2. Cells are the basic unit of life.

3. Cells are formed from pre-existing cells.

4. Energy flows inside the cell.

5. DNA is passed on from cell to cell.

6. All cells have the same basic chemical composition.

3. Organismal theory is the intended counter-argument of the cell theory. It was developed by Reichert, Strasberger, Sherrington, and Pavlov. It argues that the basic unit of life is the organism itself, suggesting that an organism came about from a cell that expanded.

4. Resolving power is the ability of an optical instrument like a microscope or a telescope to view objects that are close together as separate, abling the viewer to distinguish the two from each other.

Reason:
             During protein synthesis first of all mRNA formation occurs from DNA template. Then mRNA come out from nucleus into cytoplasm and bind with ribosome, where tRNA come and binds to mRNA codon with the help of anticodons. and add amino acids. In this way a chain of polypeptide is formed.
