Answer: selective attention

Explanation:

Spurious relationship occurs when the variables are associated but aren't casually related.

Spurious correlations are often perceived because we unconsciously use selective attention to reinforce our pre-conceived beliefs or stereotypes. Selective attention in this case simply means that we focus on a particular object for a certain period of time in an environment and this can bring about spurious correlation.

Why do so many adults dislike homeless people? Provide reasons and examples?
Vadim26 [7]
This is most likely because they believe that said homeless people -in some way- forced themselves into their current position, and that they are not willing to work to get out of it. It may also be because they see no reason for them to be homeless and/or loitering on the streets because, especially in Canada, there are a multitude of shelters for them to go to, and therefore parents can find little sympathy for the beggars.

Variation is not dependent on change in another variable; thought to cause change in the other variable(s)
Mila [183]

Answer:

Independent variables

Explanation:

The sentences shown in the question above are referring to the independent variables within an experiment.

An independent variable is one that is not changed by another variable, promotes changes and measurable results in the experiment, influences and causes effects in other variables and does not depend on any change.

An example of this can be seen in the "Analysis of the different amounts of sugar in the promotion of cavities". As you can see, the existence of caries is modified by the amount of sugar, which is not influenced by any other facts, therefore, the amount of sugar is the dependent variable.

Where was egypt's farmland located and why?
eimsori [14]
Egypt has always centered everything including farming and agriculture around it's prime location around the Nile River and the abundance of water it has always provided. As of late, the Nile River is becoming depleted over time because the northerly bordering Nation of Ethiopia has been building dams and impeding the flow. Potential war may erupt over this issue of water sharing. Actually quite interesting.

Basic answer though, near the Nile River.
