Answer:
A) The emotional or neutral word list.
Explanation:
In research there are two types of variables:
- The independent variable refers to the variable that the researcher can manipulate and that will have an effect on the dependent variable.
- The dependent variable is the variable that is being affected by the independent variable and it's the one that the researcher cannot control.
In this example, Dr. Jeffries gives a lists of 20 words to two different groups, one list is very emotional in content and the other is a neutral list. Then he measures how many words each group can remember. We can see that <u>the variable that he can manipulate is the list they are given and the emotional content of each one </u> (which will have an effect on memory, according to him). Thus, the independent variable is the emotional or neutral word list.
Answer:
Informal reasoning
Explanation:
Informal reasoning refers to a form of reasoning that rely on general knowledge, personal thinking, and knowledge from other people in order to create a conclusion.
This type of reasoning is called 'informal' because it's not backed by proper/structured scientific research and can be heavily influenced by bias.
This can be seen in the example above. Making conclusion based on online reviews is heavily biased toward the personal preference of the reviewers.
Composite volcanoes (otherwise known as stratovolcanoes) are symmetrically cone -shaped. They are usually tall. (8,000 feet+++)
Cinder cones are short volcanoes having a bowl-shaped cone. They are commonly short. (not more than 1,100 feet)
Shield volcanoes are built out of lava flows. They have large diameters.
