Answer:

Hey there.

There are three types of scientific investigations: descriptive, comparative, and experimental scenitific investigations.

fist we have Descriptive scientific investigations.

Descriptive investigations use careful observations and measurements to develop findings.

Then we have  comparative Investigation.

comparative investigations Involve collecting data on different populations/organisms, under different conditions (Times of year, locations), to make a comparison. for Example, Using a hand lens to examine the color and texture of four different rocks.

Lastly we have experimental scientific investigations.

Experimental investigations involve a process in which a "fair test" is designed and variables are actively manipulated, controlled,

I hope it helped!!!

Please read the article Why Cats Have Nine Lives by Jared Diamond. Our analysis did not attempt to

kupik [55]

The author assumes that the question can be answered by applying principles of anatomy, physics and evolutionary biology. First reason he suggests is that cats are small and they have a favourable mass-surface area ratio. Next, he suggests that cats have soft tissues that absorb the shock and they land on all four limbs, dividing the shock. This is because of their body shape and its centre of gravity. He says that felines have this kind of body structure (that canines lack) because years of falling from trees etc. has evolved their body in this way.

Which of the following statements about meiosis is correct? Which of the following statements about meiosis is correct? Meiosis

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Meiosis produces cells that differ genetically from the parent cell".

Explanation:

In contrast with mitosis, which is the cellular differentiation that produces somatic cells; meiosis produces cells that differ genetically from the parent cell. Meiosis is a special type of cellular differentiation that reduces the genetic material by half, and results in the creation of four haploid cells that are genetically distinct from the parent cell. Meiosis allows for the maturation of sexually reproducing cells, and the genetic variations of these cells is one factor that allows for genetic variations among sexually reproducing species, such as humans.
