Answer:
<u>Our beaches would be unprotected</u>
In the short-term, these artificial sand hills will be destroyed by the elements. Because sand dunes protect inland areas from swells, tides, and winds, they must be protected and defended like national treasures. ... The ocean and the wind can have an unpredictable, destructive force on coastal regions.

Natural sand dunes play a vital role in protecting our beaches, coastline and coastal developments from coastal hazards such as erosion, coastal flooding and storm damage. Sand dunes protect our shorelines from coastal erosion and provide shelter from the wind and sea spray.

The question is missing the data sets.
This is the complete question:
A single penny has a mass of 2.5 g. Abbie and James
each measure the mass of a penny multiple times. Which statement about
these data sets is true?
O Abbie's measurements are both more accurate
and more precise than James'.
O Abbie's measurements are more accurate,
but less precise, than James'.
O Abbie's measurements are more precise,
but less accurate, than James'.
O Abbie’s measurements are both less
accurate and less precise than James'.
Penny masses (g)
Abbie’s data
2.5, 2.4, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.6
James’ data
2.4, 3.0, 3.3, 2.2, 2.9, 3.8, 2.9
Answer: first option, Abbie's measurements are both more accurate
and more precise than James'.
Explanation:
1) To answer this question, you first must understand the difference between precision and accuracy.
<span>Accuracy is how close the data are to the true or accepted value.
</span>
<span>Precision is how close are the data among them, this is the reproducibility of the values.</span>
Then, you can measure the accuracy by comparing the means (averages) with the actual mass of a penny 2.5 g.
And you measure the precision by comparing a measure of spread, as it can be the standard deviation.
2) These are the calculations:
Abbie’s data
Average: ∑ of the values / number of values
Average = [2.5 + 2.4 + 2.3 + 2.4 + 2.5 + 2.6 + 2.6 ] / 7 = 2.47 ≈ 2.5
Standard deviation: √ [ ∑ (x - mean)² / (n - 1) ] = 0.11
James’ data
Average = [2.4 + 3.0 + 3.3 + 2.2 + 2.9 + 3.8 + 2.9] / 7 = 2.56 ≈ 2.6
Standard deviation = 0.53
3) Conclusions:
1) The average of Abbie's data are closer to the accepted value 2.5g, so they are more accurate.
2) The standard deviation of Abbie's data is smaller than that of Jame's data, so the Abbie's data are more precise.

When you drop iodine on a leaf you may observe a colour change of orange/brown to a blue/black complex.
This is because in the leaf there are starch molecules that form a blue/black complex with the starch molecules.
hope that helps :)
