Answer:
Coombs reagent is an antiserum with antibodies that bind to the human <u>antibodies attached on the surface of the erythrocytes.</u>
Explanation:
Coombs test is a blood test used in immunology and immunohematology. It is of two types: direct and indirect.
The Coombs reagent is an antiserum, containing antibodies.
The direct Coombs test detects the antibodies present on the surface of the erythrocytes.
In this test, when the Coombs reagent is reacted with the blood to be tested, <u>the antibodies in the Coombs reagent binds to the antibodies attached on the surface of the erythrocytes in the test blood and cause agglutination.</u>
Answer:
The options are
a.cooling of the power plant
b.mining of uranium
c.storage of radioactive waste
d.monitoring the reactor
The answer is b.mining of uranium
Explanation:
Uranium is known as a radioactive element which is used as a fuel to power a nuclear energy plant. Mining of uranium could cause it to mix with air and water which results in contamination.
When contamination occurs and it gets into the body of humans or animals by inhalation or ingestion it poses a high risk of cancer and kidney damage.
Answer:
The populations of marsh snails and painted turtles will increase.
Explanation:
There are 5 steps of the scientific method:
1. Make an observation.
2. Form a question.
3. Form a hypothesis.
4. Conduct and experiment.
5. Analyze data and draw a conclusion.
Based off this problem:
1. It doesn't specifically say that an observation was made but since it says she's studying it, it may count as an observation???
2. No question is asked because it doesn't say that she is wanting to know what the effects are of sleep deprivation for twelfth graders during midterms.
3. There is no hypothesis stated because she is not making a prediction on the outcome.
4. I suppose the data collected that she turned in was the experiment so I'm pretty sure she did conduct the experiment.
5. She just turned in her data but no analysis or conclusion is said to be made.
Without further ado, it seems that three steps were actually left out but if I had to choose, I believe that steps 3 and 5 were left out but I may be wrong. Sorry I couldn't provide a direct answer but I hope my thought process is helpful.<span />
