During an experiment to determine if people with more symmetrical body features have a lower incidence of disease, a researcher

first measures the length of several bones in the subject's hands and arms. The device used to measure length does not display a readout of the measurement taken. Instead, a wire connects the measuring device to a computer that records the data. The computer monitor is kept out of sight of the subject and the researcher. Why is such an elaborate device used?a. So that the subject will not know if he or she is part of the control group.b. So that the experiment will be repeatable.c. So that the subject will not be injured by the experiment.d. So that the identity of the subject will remain anonymous.e. So that the measurements are not biased by the researcher.

Answer:

e

Explanation:

<em>The main reason such an elaborate device was used would be to eliminate any element of bias by the researcher.</em>

It is important to eliminate biases when taking measurements so as to ensure the accuracy of the data and the overall outcome of the experiment. <u>If a simpler device had been used in which the researcher manually records the length of the bones, it is possible to knowingly or unknowingly introduce biases or random error into the experiment which will impact the integrity of the data and the outcome of the experiment.</u>

The correct option is e.

Explain why an mRNA transcribed from the template strand of the SIRT3 gene in normal stomach ( NS ) cells is translated to produ
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Explanation:

The double-stranded DNA molecule has the  potential to store genetic information in either strand, although in  most organisms <u>only one strand is used to encode any particular gene</u>.  

The template strand is the non-coding strand. The coding strand of DNA is the non-template (mRNA-like) strand (see attachment).

Thus, genetic  information is expressed by transcription of the non-coding (template) strand  of DNA, <u>which produces an mRNA molecule that has the same sequence  as the coding strand of DNA</u>. Therefore, if a mRNA is transcribed from the non-template strand, the genetic information will not be contained in that strand and it would not produce a correct protein.

Green algae are more closely related to plants than they are to kelp.Why is this so?
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: Green Algae are closely related to plants.

Explanation: Green Algae are closely related to plants because of they possess photosynthetic pigments as plants.

Green algae and plants are closely related in that they can manufacture their own food from nutrients and sunlight through the process of photosynthesis

Green algae also possess the same carotenoids and chlorophyll a and b as land plants which make them closely related.

Kelps don't have these characteristics.
