Answer:The process of science is iterative.

Science circles back on itself so that useful ideas are built upon and used to learn even more about the natural world. This often means that successive investigations of a topic lead back to the same question, but at deeper and deeper levels. Let's begin with the basic question of how biological inheritance works. In the mid-1800s, Gregor Mendel showed that inheritance is particulate — that information is passed along in discrete packets that cannot be diluted. In the early 1900s, Walter Sutton and Theodor Boveri (among others) helped show that those particles of inheritance, today known as genes, were located on chromosomes. Experiments by Frederick Griffith, Oswald Avery, and many others soon elaborated on this understanding by showing that it was the DNA in chromosomes which carries genetic information. And then in 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick, again aided by the work of many others, provided an even more detailed understanding of inheritance by outlining the molecular structure of DNA. Still later in the 1960s, Marshall Nirenberg, Heinrich Matthaei, and others built upon this work to unravel the molecular code that allows DNA to encode proteins. And it doesn't stop there. Biologists have continued to deepen and extend our understanding of genes, how they are controlled, how patterns of control themselves are inherited, and how they produce the physical traits that pass from generation to generation. The process of science is not predetermined.

Any point in the process leads to many possible next steps, and where that next step leads could be a surprise. For example, instead of leading to a conclusion about tectonic movement, testing an idea about plate tectonics could lead to an observation of an unexpected rock layer. And that rock layer could trigger an interest in marine extinctions, which could spark a question about the dinosaur extinction — which might take the investigator off in an entirely new direction. At first this process might seem overwhelming. Even within the scope of a single investigation, science may involve many different people engaged in all sorts of different activities in different orders and at different points in time — it is simply much more dynamic, flexible, unpredictable, and rich than many textbooks represent it as. But don't panic! The scientific process may be complex, but the details are less important than the big picture …

Which shows the rational expression written using the least common denominator?
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The first one.

\frac{x + 1}{4x^{2} } and \frac{4(x + 1)}{4x^{2} }

Explanation:

When comparing two fractions with variables like this, it's important to get to the same denominator in order to compare apples with apples and then be able to do not only comparisons but also perform additions/subtractions.

Question is which denominator to use and how to reach it.

In this case, the question and the answer choices do the work for you.  The question asks which one is the LEAST common denominator, and the answers show denominators x² and 4x².  The smallest of these is x², however, we can't simplify the first fraction to get to the x² denominator, so we'll go for the 4x².

So, the first fraction has already the correct denominator (4x²), we just have to transform the second one.

We multiply it by 1, expressed in a different way.  Since we're multiplying by one, we're not affecting the value, just the way it looks.

Let's do it!, to get the denominator to go from x² to 4x², we need to multiply it by 4... so we'll multiply by 4/4 (which is 1, neutral for the multiplication).

\frac{x + 1}{x^{2} } * \frac{4}{4} = \frac{4(x + 1)}{4x^{2} }

And now you have both fractions on the same denominator, without having changed their value, just their looks

If i have an 86 and i don’t do a 50 point assignment, what will my grade be in the class?
nexus9112 [7]
Well you are at a 86% so t<span>his is considered a "B" grade on an average grade scale. If you take 50 points we would need to know the Total point you could have got in that class to be able to see how much a percent was the assignment work and then take that percentage of the assignment and subtract it from the 86% to see where on the scale you would fall in after the assignment points were taken off.   Hope this helps :)

A student placed 18.5 g of glucose (C6H12O6) in a volumetric flask, added enough water to dissolve the glucose by swirling, then
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

1.30464 grams of glucose was present in 100.0 mL of final solution.

Explanation:

Molarity=\frac{moles}{\text{Volume of solution(L)}}

Moles of glucose = \frac{18.5 g}{180 g/mol}=0.1028 mol

Volume of the solution = 100 mL = 0.1 L (1 mL = 0.001 L)

Molarity of the solution = \frac{0.1028 mol}{0.1 L}=1.028 mol/L

A 30.0 mL sample of above glucose solution was diluted to 0.500 L:

Molarity of the solution before dilution = M_1=1.208 mol

Volume of the solution taken = V_1=30.0 mL

Molarity of the solution after dilution = M_2

Volume of the solution after dilution= V_2=0.500L = 500 mL

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

M_2=\frac{M_1V_1}{V_2}=\frac{1.208 mol/L\times 30.0 mL}{500 mL}

M_2=0.07248 mol/L

Mass glucose are in 100.0 mL of the 0.07248 mol/L glucose solution:

Volume of solution = 100.0 mL = 0.1 L

0.07248 mol/L=\frac{\text{moles of glucose}}{0.1 L}

Moles of glucose = 0.07248 mol/L\times 0.1 L=0.007248 mol

Mass of 0.007248 moles of glucose :

0.007248 mol × 180 g/mol = 1.30464 grams

1.30464 grams of glucose was present in 100.0 mL of final solution.
