Pillbugs are placed in a container where they have a choice of a wet or a dry environment. Researchers record how much time was spent on each side. What is the INDEPENDENT variable?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Wet or dry environment.

Explanation:

The independent variable is the variable that a researcher manipulates in an experiment in order to carry out a study on the incidence of the expression of the dependent variable. Therefore, the independent variable is the one that changes or is controlled to see its effects on the dependent variable.

Researchers can then design a container with a wet or dry environment. But it's the pillbugs that are going to choose where to go and how long to spend in each part. So the time they spend in each part is a dependent variable since that cannot be controlled by the scientists conducting the experiment. Henceforth, the researches will just record this dependent variable without controlling it. But they can decide what to put in the container to make it wet or dry environment, or whatever they want to design. So wet or dry environment is the independent variable.

Answer 2

Answer:the independent variable is whether the pillbugs choose a wet or dry environment. The dependent variable how much time was spent on each side.

Help? You are studying an outcrop where the lower layer is limestone and the layer directly on top of the limestone is sandstone. Near the bottom of the sandstone layer are small, weathered pieces of limestone entirely contained within the sandstone. Explain how these pieces of limestone came to be contained within the sandstone.

Answers

Answer:

Due to mixing of particles present in the upper layer of limestone with sandstone during deposition.

Explanation:

The parent layer was limestone layer which is older than sandstone layer. This sandstone layer spreads on the limestone layer because of wind. The wind moves these sandstone from other region and their deposition occurs on the limestone layer. During deposition of sandstone, some particles of limestone which are present at the surface mixes with the sandstone so that's why in sandstone layer, small and weathered pieces of limestone are present.

A Detritivore

Explanation:

A Detritivore is a heterotrophic organism that feeds on dead plant and animal materials. They could also feed through coprophagy which is nutrition obtained by feeding on feces. Worms that dwell on the soil, insects, and mollusks are examples of detritivores. Detritivores can also be found residing in aquatic environments. Crabs and Lobsters are examples of these organisms.

Detritivores have no teeth. So, they tend to suck in their food, and this food, through peristaltic actions, moves directly into the digestive tract where it is acted upon by digestive enzymes. From the observations, I made about the organism at the mudflat at the ocean, I can conclude that it is a detritivore.

Answers

Answer:

Fomites are inanimate objects involved in the indirect contact transmission of pathogens.

Explanation:

Fomites are inanimate objects involved in the indirect contact transmission of pathogens. These objects include a whole range of items mostly found in indoor environments. When pathogens  such as viruses and bacteria come in contact with these objects through various human and animal activities such as sneezing or coughing, use of toilets etc; these pathogens remain active on these objects and can then cause disease when others come in contact with these objects.

Common fomites in the home include toilet seats and handles, doorknobs, kitchentops, bed coverings , mobile phones, light switches as well as as toys. In offices, door handles, stairway railings as well as wring materials are common fomites. Especially concerning is the issue of disease transmission by fomites in healthcare facilities since there is constant exposure of surfaces and equipments to various pathogens.

To help prevent the spread of diseases by fomites, regular handwashing and disinfection of commonly touched surfaces is required.

here are times where you will be provided with BUD dates. When you do not have access to the BUD dates, you will have to determine that date yourself. What is the appropriate BUD date for a water containing oral formulation? Not later than 14 days Not later than 30 days

Answers

Answer:

Explanation: Not later than 14 days.

Beyond Use Date (BUD) is the date after which a compounded sterile preparation may not be stored or transported. This time is calculated from the date of compounding, and it is different from expiration date. This is because the BUDs are assigned with a different approach from those applied to assigning expiration dates to  manufactured drug products. Also, compounded preparations are intended for administration following short-term storage. So, the BUD is the date after which a compounded preparation shall not be  used. A reliable BUD is established to ensure that the preparation  has an accepted quality and purity at least  until the labeled BUD.

BUD is calculated by:

Type of container in which it is packagedHow long the medication will be takenType of drugHow fast is the drug degradatedStorage conditionsDosage of the medicationNature of the drug and its degradation mechanism Potential for microbial proliferation in the preparation

For Nonaqueous Formulation, the BUD is not later than 6 months or the time  remaining until the earliest expiration date of any API (Active pharmaceutical ingredient), whichever is earlier.  

For Water-Containing Oral Formulation, the BUD is not later than 14  days when it is stored at controlled cold temperatures.

For Dermal and Mucosal Liquid, Semisolid Formulations/Water-Containing Topical, the BUD is not later than 30 days.

Explanation:

In order to determine whether you have hypoxia, your doctor will need to check the amount of oxygen in your blood. Therefore, option (C) is correct.

What do you mean by hypoxia?

Hypoxia is low levels of oxygen in your body tissues. It causes symptoms like confusion, restlessness, difficulty breathing, rapid heart rate, and bluish skin.

Moreover, hypoxia is a state in which oxygen is not available in sufficient amounts at the tissue level to maintain adequate homeostasis; this can result from inadequate oxygen delivery to the tissues either due to low blood supply or low oxygen content in the blood (hypoxemia).

Hence, heart and lung function issues can lead to five categories of conditions that cause hypoxemia: ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) mismatch, diffusion impairment, hypoventilation, low environmental oxygen and right-to-left shunting.

Differentiate between sub-cellular and acellular particles with examples

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Sub-cellular particles are particles smaller than the living cell and are found suspended in the cytosol (of a cell) like the nucleus, golgi complex and the mitochondria.

While acellular particles/organisms are particles that do not have a cell like the virsues, viroids and prions. They are not alive/inactive outside a living environment but become active immediately they are inside a living environment (like a cell).

Sub-cellular particles are structures that are found within a cell. These structures perform specific functions and are essential for the cell to carry out its biological processes.

Examples of sub-cellular particles include organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes. These structures are composed of both proteins and lipids and are enclosed by a membrane.

Acellular particles, on the other hand, are particles that do not possess a cellular structure and are not alive. These particles are much smaller than cells and are unable to carry out any metabolic processes.

Examples of acellular particles include viruses, prions, and viroids. These particles are composed of either DNA or RNA and can replicate themselves only within a host cell. They do not have their own metabolism and rely on the host cell for replication and survival.
