Solution

failed
failed

The answer is False.

Explanation:

  • The right lung is actually larger than the left lung. The left lung is smaller because it has a cardiac notch, which is an indentation to accommodate the heart. The heart is located slightly to the left of the midline of the body, which is why the left lung is smaller and has this notch. The right lung, on the other hand, does not have this indentation and is therefore larger.

How Would You Know If Sleep Deprivation Affects Academic Performance? 1. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE? - Your study showed a cause-effect relationship between sleep deprivation and lower learning and remembering. - Your study showed that sleep deprivation relates to lower learning and remembering, but it did not establish a cause-effect relationship. - Using random assignment, you instructed some participants to sleep eight hours and others to sleep one hour. - You identified and controlled for confounding variables that might reduce confidence in your study results. 2. In your study, whether participants had damage to memory centers in the brain was a confounding variable because:

Keeping water clean. Keeping water supplies clean requires regular measurement of levels of pollutants. The measurements are indirect - a typical analysis involves forming a dye by a chemical reaction with the dissolved pollutant, then passing light through the solution and measuring its "absorbance." To calibrate such measurements, the laboratory measures known standard solutions and uses regression to relate absorbance and pollutant concentration. This is usually done every day. Here is one series of data on the absorbance for different levels of nitrates. Nitrates are measured in milligrams per liter of water. Nitrates: 50, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 2000, 2000. Absorbance: 7.0, 7.5, 12.8, 24.0, 47.0, 93.0, 138.0, 183.0, 230.0, 226.0. a. Chemical theory says that these data should lie on a straight line. If the correlation is not at least 0.997, something went wrong, and the calibration procedure is repeated. Plot the data and find the correlation. Must the calibration be done again? b. The calibration process sets nitrate level and measures absorbance. Once established, the linear relationship will be used to estimate the nitrate level in water from a measurement of absorbance. What is the equation of the line used for estimation? What is the estimated nitrate level in a water specimen with absorbance 40? c. Do you expect estimates of nitrate level from absorbance to be highly accurate? Why?

Read the poem. There are 14 lines in the poem. The poem is numbered every This question has two parts. Answer Part A, and then answer Part B. 5 lines. To an Oak O Oakl long years the stress of storm and wind Has made thy limbs exult in growing thew, And deeper, surer in the earth descend The thousand tendrils that were strengthening you; With best of sun and song and rain and dew High on the hill thy strength, tho' storm and wind Oft did thy tender thewless youth unbend; But greater thou in limb and power grew. O mighty oakl with faith serene and sure, impart to me the secret of thy girth. Invest me master of thy patient will; That through the coming years I may endure, And deeper rooted in the fields of earth. At last, as thou, be sovereign of a hill. ("To an Oak" by Charies Bertram Johnson) Part A These lines are from the poem. "With best of sun and song and rain and dew High on the hill thy strength, tho" storm and wind Oft did thy tender thewless youth unbend; But greater thou in limb and power grew." (Lines 5-8) What do these lines most clearly reveal about the tree? 1. It became larger by growing multiple new branches. 2. It learned to live in good and bad weather conditions. 3. It overcame hardships more easily because it was on a hill. 4. It became larger and stronger in spite of challenges it faced. Part B How do these lines contribute to an important idea in the poem? 1. They show what the speaker wants to learn from the tree. 2. They show what the speaker thinks is interesting about the tree. 3. They show what the speaker likes about the appearance of the tree. 4. They show what the speaker has trouble understanding about the tree.
