The answer is the second one: exocrine gland.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Widely spaced cells: This is associated with connective tissue. Connective tissues typically have cells that are spread out within an extracellular matrix, rather than being tightly packed together.

  2. Exocrine gland: This is not typically associated with connective tissue. Exocrine glands are part of the epithelial tissue system, which is responsible for secretion and lining surfaces.

  3. Collagenous fibers: This is associated with connective tissue. Collagen fibers are a major component of the extracellular matrix in connective tissues, providing strength and support.

  4. Matrix: This is associated with connective tissue. The matrix is the non-cellular component present within all tissues and organs, providing structural and biochemical support to the surrounding cells.

In summary, the term "exocrine gland" is not associated with connective tissue, making it the correct answer to the question.

Acids and Bases Predicting the qualitative acid-base properties of salts Consider the following data on some weak acids and weak bases: - acid - name: hydrocyanic acid, formula: HCN, Ka: 4.9 x 10^-10 - name: nitrous acid, formula: HNO2, Ka: 4.5 x 10^-4 - base - name: methylamine, formula: CH3NH2, Kb: 4.4 x 10^-4 - name: hydroxylamine, formula: HONH2, Kb: 1.1 x 10^-8 Use this data to rank the following solutions in order of increasing pH. In other words, select a '1' next to the solution that will have the lowest pH, a '2' next to the solution that will have the next lowest pH, and so on. - 0.1 M CH3NH3Cl: choose one - 0.1 M KCN: choose one - 0.1 M KI: choose one - 0.1 M NaNO2: choose one

Here is a procedure used in a middle school science class to find the speed of sound in air. A student takes two erasers and begins to bang then together with a regular beat perhaps at a rate of 20 'claps' in 10 second - in front of the brick wall of the school building. The student begins walking backward until she can't hear the echo of the erasers anymore. Explain, in terms of the principles of waves explored in this Lesson, how this procedure is able to estimate the speed of sound in air.
