Answer: It shows the distribution of the population with respect to a characteristic, quantitative and continuous, such as the weight or height of a population. It is used to determine the degree of homogeneity of the values studied, or to see the degree of variability, and therefore, the dispersion of all the values taken by the parts.

Explanation:

A histogram is a graphical representation of a variable using bars. In such a bar, its area is proportional to the frequency of the values represented. Thus, it shows the distribution of the population, or of the sample, with respect to a characteristic, quantitative and continuous, such as the weight or height of a population. It is used to determine the degree of homogeneity of the values studied, or to see the degree of variability, and therefore, the dispersion of all the values taken by the parts.

In order to construct a histogram first we need to have a frequency table with all the information. On the abscissa axis (horizontal axis) the intervals are placed from smallest to largest. On the ordinate axis (vertical axis), the absolute frequencies of each of the intervals are represented. Then, the rectangular bars of equal width are drawn, and the height represents the absolute frequency. All bars touch the bars next to each other, unless an interval has zero frequency (the height of the bar will also be zero).

Thus, histograms are used to describe populations since they represent a variable and in what proportion of the population it is found.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

basale - spinosum - granulosum - lucidum - corneum.

Explanation:

The order of strata in the epidermis:

Basale: it is the deepest stratum. It has one layer of cells called keratinocytes, which are stem cells for the epidermis.
Spinosum: The keratinocytes in this layer have spiny shapes. They synthesize cytokeratin and lipids. In this layer, we can also find macrophages.
Granulosum: The keratinocytes of the previous layer ascend and synthesize keratohyalin, which is in granules. The keratohyalin helps to join keratin filaments. Also, the cells release the lipids synthesized in the previous layer, and they form a barrier that stops dehydration.
Lucidum: it is only on thick skin, like the one in the sole of the feet. The keratinocytes in this layer have expelled the nucleus and now are dead cells. The keratinocytes have a flat shape and form a thin layer.
Corneum: it is the most superficial layer. It is made of dead keratinocytes filled with keratin in their cytoplasm. It is a thick layer that suffers desquamation when new dead cells filled with keratin ascend from the previous layer.

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Bruce Wallace was a professor emeritus of genetics who performed many population studies. He worked in 1958 at the University of Cornell as a professor of genetics. In 1963, he performed a population study wherein the recessive allele It was at a frequency of 0.5. The population was propagated for 10 generations and the frequency of It for each generation was determined.

The result of this study showed that lt/lt died without reproducing, whereas, individuals with genotype +/+ were normal.

Answer:

Explanation:

What is Ozone? Ozone is a gas made up of three oxygen atoms (O3). It occurs naturally in small (trace) amounts in the upper atmosphere (the stratosphere). Ozone protects life on Earth from the Sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
