A scientist claims that he has protected animal test subjects from a newly mutated virus using an experimental vaccine. The experimental vaccine was injected into five animal test subjects. The scientist also injected a placebo vaccine into five other animal test subjects. One month later, all of the test subjects were exposed to the mutated virus. The subjects that received the vaccination showed no sign of the disease and blood tests confirmed the presence of antibodies against the disease, but the subjects given the placebo developed symptoms of this condition. Why did one group have a placebo injected before being exposed to the virus? Choose 1 answer: Choose 1 answer: (Choice A) A They were part of the control group (Choice B) B They would be exposed to a weakened form of the virus (Choice C) C They would be protected from the disease (Choice D) D They were part of the experimental group

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. They were part of the control group

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, the CONTROL GROUP as opposed to the experimental group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment. This acts as a standard for comparison.

In this question, the EXPERIMENTAL VACCINE is the experimental treatment or independent variable that was added. The five animal test subjects that was injected with this vaccine are called the EXPERIMENTAL GROUP while the other five test subjects that were rather injected with a PLACEBO are called CONTROL GROUPS.

1) What is the control group? 2) What is the experimental group? 3) What is the independent (manipulated) variable? 4) What is the dependent (responding) variable? 5) What should Tina's conclusion be?

Answers

Complete question:

Tina asks the question “Does caffeine increase the heart rate of an earthworm?” In Test 1, she measures the heart rate by looking at the earthworm under a microscopes, the earthworm has a heart rate of 50 bpm (beats per minute). In Test 2, she places a few drops of caffeine on the earthworm’s skin and measures the rate again. In this test, the heart rate is 68 bpm.

1) What is the control group?

2) What is the experimental group?

3) What is the independent (manipulated) variable?

4) What is the dependent (responding) variable?

5) What should Tina's conclusion be?

Answer:

Individuals from test 1Individuals from test 2CaffeineHeart rateTina´s hypothesis is correct. Caffeine increases the heart rate of an earthworm.  

Explanation:

During an experiment, data from an experimental group is compared with the data from a control group. Both groups are selected from the same pool or population, so they are identical in all aspects except for the independent variables.  

The control group is used to identify any other factors influencing the results obtained in the study, apart from the modified variables of the treatment.

The experimental group is the one affected by the experimental procedure or treatment. The researcher voluntarily changes the independent variables in the experimental group to observe how they affect the group under study. These variables are kept constant in the control group, not influencing the results, while the experimental group receives the treatment. There can be several experimental groups.  

Independent (manipulated) variable: Refers to all the variables in an experiment that provoke a response in another variable. An independent variable is the one that changes or is controlled and modified in the experiment to analyze how another variable responds to it. It changes to analyze its effects on the dependent variable. Usually, the independent variable is represented by the X letter.   Dependent variable: Refers to the variable, which response depends on any change in the independent variable. It represents a quantity of something which value depends on how the independent variable is modified. The change in the dependent variable might be proportional or inversely proportional to the change in the manipulated variable. It is usually represented using the letter Y.  Controlled variable: Refers to the variables that have no influence on the results. These variables do not affect the change in the dependent variable values.  

1) What is the control group?

Individuals from test 1 compose the control group. They are not affected by the treatment. Tina just uses them to measure the normal heart rate and to compare them with individuals from test 2.

2) What is the experimental group?

Individuals from Test 2 compose the experimental group. They are affected by the treatment. Tina drops caffeine on their skin to see how it affects the worms.

3) What is the independent (manipulated) variable?

Caffeine is the independent variable. Tina manipulates the number of drops she places on the worm´s skins.

4) What is the dependent (responding) variable?

Heart rate is the dependent variable. Tina evaluates how the heart rate changes in individuals with or without caffeine.

5) What should Tina's conclusion be?

Caffeine increases the heart rate of an earthworm. It changes from 50 to 68 bpm. Tina´s hypothesis is correct.

How do white blood cells protect the body against infections

Answers

Answer:

White blood cells, which are also called leukocytes or white corpuscles, are a cellular blood component that does not include hemoglobin, have a nucleus, are motile, and protect the body from infections and diseases through ingestion of foreign materials and cellular debris, destruction of infectious agents and cancer cells or production of antimicrobials.

Explanation:

There are 4,500 to 11,000 cells in the white blood of a healthy adult person per cubic mm of blood. During the day, fluctuations in the number of white cells take place; lower values during rest and higher during exercise are attained. The quantity of white cells increases abnormally, while the number decreases abnormally, Leukopenia.

Intensive physical activity, seizures, extreme emotional response, pain, pregnancy, labor, and specific conditions such as infections and intoxications may increase the counting of white cells. In reaction to some types of infections or medication, or in conjunction with certain illnesses such as chronic anemia, malnutrition, or allergy, the number may drop.

Answers

Answer:

The menstrual cycle is regulated by hormones. Luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone, which are produced by the pituitary gland, promote ovulation and stimulate the ovaries to produce estrogen and progesterone.

Los métodos hormonales son eficientes porque: * A: impiden la entrada de los espermatozoides C: Se inhibe (no se desarrolla) la ovulación B: El óvulo jamás se encuentra con el espermatozoide D: Los espermatozoides quedan atrapados y no llegan al óvulo

Answers

Answer: C: Se inhibe (no se desarrolla) la ovulación.

Explanation:

Los métodos anticonceptivos se utilizan prevenir el embarazo no deseado, evitando que el esperma fertilice a un óvulo. Hay distintos tipos, los cuales se clasifican en:

Anticonceptivos hormonales: Contienen hormonas, tales como estrógeno y progesterona, que previenen la ovulación (es decir, la liberación de óvulos de los ovarios). De esta manera, al no haber óvulo disponible, por mas que hayan espermatozoides, no va a ocurrir ninguna fecundación. El método mas conocido es la píldora o pastilla anticonceptiva. Anticonceptivos de barrera: Proveen una barrera física que impide la fecundación al impedir el encuentro entre el óvulo y el espermatozoide. Por ejemplo, el uso de preservativos o condones. En estos métodos, se impide la entrada de los espermatozoides, no se encuentran con el óvulo y la esperma queda atrapada dentro del condón. Anticonceptivos permanentes: Proveen un método permanente como  por ejemplo el Dispositivo Intrauterino que se coloca en el tracto uterino con una vida media de meses o años y posee un efecto espermicida que mata a los espermatozoides (por lo que no lograrán encontrar un óvulo). Otro ejemplo es la vasectomía, la cual es una cirugía que corta los conductos deferentes que transportan a los espermatozoides por lo que ya no pueden salir de los testículos para producir la fecundación (quedan atrapados dentro de los testículos, no entran al tracto uterino y no encuentran al óvulo)

Tanto los métodos de barrera como los permanentes, no inhiben la ovulación aunque si impiden que el óvulo se encuentre con el espermatozoide. Entonces, los métodos hormonales son los únicos que logran inhibir la ovulación. Las píldoras que poseen las hormonas previamente mencionadas pero fabricadas sintéticamente. Las mismas mimetizan el efecto de las hormonas naturales producidas por el cuerpo, alterando el ciclo menstrual regular y así evitan el embarazo ya que no habrá óvulo disponible para fecundar. Además, también pueden alterarla mucosidad en el cuello del útero para que los espermatozoides no pueden atravesarlo y llegar al óvulo. De todas maneras, el objetivo principal y mas importante de los métodos hormonales es bloquear la ovulación.

Which of the following requirements for the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is not being met?

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

All mating must be totally random

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is a mathematical model that describes the genetic equilibrium of a population in terms of allele frequencies. It states that allele frequencies in a population remain constant over time in the absence of any evolutionary forces.

What are the requirements of the law ?

In order for this balance to be maintained, five basic requirements must be met: large population size, random mating, no mutations, no migration, and no natural selection. In this case, the starfish population does not satisfy the fifth requirement for no natural selection.

Natural selection occurs as individuals with the purple allele die off, resulting in the red allele becoming more common over time. This type of directional selection causes allele frequencies to deviate from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.

Therefore, no natural selection requirement is met in this starfish population. This causes allele frequencies to change over time, leading to a deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
