Answer:
X is the concentration of the substance being measured and Y is the response from the instrument that is being used to measure
Explanation:
A calibration curve is the plot of known concentration of substances where x is the increasing known concentration and Y is the response, typically "absorption" taken from the instrument that is used for measuring. This curve is then used to find out the concentration of the unknown substance by using it's absorbance and comparing it with the calibration curve. For example:
Concentrations and absorbance readings are as follows
0.5mg/mL=10 nm
1.0mg/mL=15nm
1.5mg/mL=20nm
2.0mg/mL=25nm
This data is plotted on a calibration curve. Next we measure the unknown substance the absorption is 20nm. We can suggest that the concentration is 1.5 mg/mL. If there are readings that fall inbetwen values then the formulat to calculate the right concentration would be y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Linear regression uses the modification of the slope formula y= a + bx to best see how the data of the water samples would fit on the slope of the calibration curve. X is the independent variable , b is the slope of the line and a is the y-intercept.
Extrapolation would be the action of calculating data that are outside the calibration curve, assuming the trend would continue.
Answer:
It is called Lumpectomy also known as partial Mastectomy.
A little percent of it (around 9.5%) goes to recycling while a large percent goes to the landfill, ocean and beaches, where it will take years for the plastic to decompose and leak pollutants into the soil and water, <span>threatening the health and safety of marine life. There is a new recycling method where the plastics are shredded and mix with the other components to make hollow blocks for construction of structures.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is d.non-vascular plants with a dominant gametophyte.
Explanation:
Bryophytes are non-vascular plants that present a reduced and not constantly present sporophyte, also their gametophyte is very dominant and is, basically, the whole structure. Their sporophyte only grows when they're reproducing and they disappear when the spores are spread.
