Diet and weight-loss products use heavy bias in their advertisements. They generally claim that they are the fastest or the only way for effective weight loss. They also often use before-and-after photos as evidence to show how people change by using their products. Most of the time, they show only the body of the person, so it’s questionable whether the before-and-after photos are even of the same person. If they show the results of a research study, we can check who funded the study. If the diet or weight-loss company founded the study, then we can check whether an unbiased group replicated the study before accepting it as a fact. If not, we can see how well the study was designed and whether the company controlled other factors such as the diet or exercise of the participants.

Diet and weightloss advertising puts super skinny models and actors/actresses saying they lost an insane amount of weight using their product. That is completely bias because they aren’t just going to say the model lost weight through other methods of weight loss because they are advertising THEIR product.
I would use skepticism evaluating these ads because I would be skeptical believing that someone lost 200 pounds in 2 months drinking some supplement.

The annual precipitation varies most in which of these ecosystem?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

The annual precipitation varies most in tropical rain forest ecosystem.

Explanation:

Tropical rain forest is one of the most extensive selvatic ecosystems, with a very dense vegetation, which is characterized by its high temperatures and abundant and varied annual precipitations, which are between 1500 and 5000 mm per year.

This ecosystem can be found in Central America, Mexico, Australia and even in Asia, where a seasonal climate can be seen divided into rainy seasons -which register the highest rainfall- and a dry season, where rainfall is lower. Most of the year the climate is hot and one of its characteristics is to present the greatest variety of animal and vegetable species.

What would most likely happen to a person who is not getting enough essential amino acids in his or her diet?
VMariaS [17]
If you don't ingest enough amino acids you would have difficulties synthesizing protein. Basically, there are 20 of them in the genetic code and they build into everything because they are combined into proteins. They are the second most found molecule in our body after water, and you need a lot of them. If you don't get them your body won't have enough protein and you can die if it becomes too extreme.
