Answer:

1. d

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that the system of peer review is used to determine conclusively the conclusions of the paper.

The system of peer review refers to the process of evaluating a scientific report or paper by one or more independent scientists who have a similar background as the producer of the report or paper.

The reviewers evaluate the methodologies and various claims made by the original researcher and give feedback on their validity as well as make criticism of the paper in order to improve its quality before final publication. However, reviewers do not alter the claims or conclusions of papers, they can only query them.

Hence, options a, b, and c are correct as far as the peer review system is concerned.

The only incorrect option here is d.

2. There are 3 types of experiments, namely:

controlled experiment
field experiment
natural experiment

The controlled experiment involves the comparison of experimental group with control group. The two groups are subjected to the same conditions except for the variable whose effects are being researched.

The field experiment takes place outside the laboratory settings as opposed to other types of experiments. The subjects of the field experiment are studied in their natural environment outside the lab.

The natural experiment involves studying a phenomenon naturally without having control, unlike the controlled experiment. Observations are just recorded and are used to arrive at predictions or hypotheses.

Part 2:

Subject: 30 - 60 years old males

Control: Group B, the placebo group

Constant: Diet.

Independent variable: Administered drugs (choless and placebo)

Dependent variable: cholesterol level.

Part 3

Experiment 1:

a. Independent variable: types of detergent

b. dependent variable: height of foam

c. constant variables: amount of water, container type, temperature, period of agitation.

Experiment 2:

a. independent variable: amount of weight in each car

b. dependent variable: amount of gasoline left in each car

c. constant variable: car, type of gas, speed of car, distance covered by car.

Experiment 3

a. independent variable: amount of light

b. dependent variable: number of remnant bacterial cells after exposure to light

c. constant variable: initial number of bacteria, petri dish, type/amount of growth medium.

Experiment 4

a. independent variable: level of salinity

b. dependent variable: biomass of plant

c. constant variable: type of plant, period of growth, growth conditions.

what is the difference between the closed conformation and open conformation of chromatin packing? biology

Oduvanchick [21]

The shape of chromatin, which can be either open (euchromatin) or compact (heterochromatin), is dynamically regulated during the phases of the cell cycle is the two types of conformations.

The main distinction between conformation and configuration is that whereas the configurations of the same molecule do not easily interconvert, their conformations do.
With a predefined location in the nucleus and a certain form, such as metacentric, submetacentric, acrocentric, or telocentric, chromosomes are primarily heterochromatic in this stage.
All DNA-mediated processes, including gene regulation, can be significantly impacted by the degree of nucleosomal packaging.
While heterochromatin (tight or closed chromatin) is more compact and resistant to factors that need to access the DNA template, euchromatin (loose or open chromatin) structure is permissible for transcription.

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

V125BC [204]

The nervous system and the muscle system respond to stimuli to produce motion. The skeletal movements of muscles are mostly voluntary.

Involuntary movements occur in these muscles when the nerve impulse passes from a sensory neuron to a motor neuron via an interneuron in the spinal cord.

<h3>What are Skeletal muscles?</h3>

Skeletal muscles may be defined as the muscles that fasten to your bones and authorize you to achieve a broad range of activities and operations.

Skeletal muscles control the direct movement of a person's will and are hence referred to as voluntary movement. While the spinal cord is associated with both movements directly or indirectly. It is a prolonged, delicate tubelike network liable for holding incoming and outgoing messages through the brain to the rest body.

Therefore, it is well described above.
