Each of 100 laboratory rats has available both plain water and a mixture of water and caffeine in their cages. After 24 hours, t

wo measures were recorded for each rat: the amount of caffeine the rat consumed, X, and the rat's blood pressure, Y. The correlation between X and Y was 0.428. Which of the following conclusions is justified on the basis of this study?
A. The correlation between X and Y in the population of rats is also 0.428
B. If the rats stop drinking the water/caffeine mixture, this would cause a reduction in their blood pressure.
C. About 18 percent of the variation in blood pressure can be explained by a linear relationship between blood pressure and caffeine consumed.
D. Rats with lower blood pressure do not like the water/caffeine mixture as much as do rats with higher blood pressure.
E. Since the correlation is not very high, the relationship between the amount of caffeine consumed and blood pressure is not linear.

Answer:

C. About 18 percent of the variation in blood pressure can be explained by a linear relationship between blood pressure and caffeine consumed.

Explanation:

Here, r = 0.428

∴ We can say it will give a positive curve, as 0.428 indicates it is a positive correlation.

Though the amount of correlation is low, still it is positive and more than 0.4

So, nearly about 18% of the variation in the blood pressure can be observed by the consumption of caffeine water. As consumption of caffeine water and blood pressure is both increasing so we can say that r= 0.428 will give a positive linear curve.

A student has twenty identical young plants how does the amount of water given to these plants each day effect how tall the plan
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The amount of water given to the plants depends on the effect of how tall the plant can overall grow. For instance, if all twenty identical plants are being given the same amount of water, then they will grow all at equal rates. However, if there is not equal amount/consistency with the amount of water the plants receive, then this factor may contribute to an uneven growth pattern between all twenty plants. However, other factors (such as location, sunlight, etc.) may also contribute to a plant's growth.

5. The F2 generation of a cross between a parental tall and a parental short pea plant is 298 tall plants and 102 short plants.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The answer is XX.

Explanation:

Let us say that X is the dominant gene and x is the recessive gene for the height of the pea plants. Pea plants need to be homozygous or heterozygous  to have the short phenotype which means it needs to have the genotype xx or Xx.

The F2 offspring has a ratio of 74,5% tall plants and 25,5% short plants. For these results, the stem height pea plant needs to be homozygous which is an XX genotype for the tall pea plant.

I hope this answer helps.
