why was it important for mendel to study such a large sample of pea plants to determine the probability of inheritance?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Mendel study such a large sample of pea plants because the more sample size gives more accurate results. Gregor Mendel performs his experiment on 29000 pea plants.  

He selected the pea plants they give many offspring and are able to reproduce quickly and are self fertilize. This makes his experiment easy to study and perform the experiment quickly.

Answer 2
Answer: The answer is because the results will be more accurate if there is a larger sample size. 

No matter what research is, the larger sample size is, the more accurately will be the results and vice versa. The larger samples increase a chance of significance because they reflect the population mean more reliably.
With small sample, the chance for false conclusions is higher.

In Texas, a man showed up at a medical facility claiming that he felt drunk when he had not ingested any alcohol. Indeed his blood alcohol measured 0.37, many times the legal limit. Although he was a home brewer, he claimed that this intoxication had been happening often without his drinking any alcohol. Which of these hypotheses and actions might be most useful in diagnosing this problem?

Answers

Answer:

This condition might have arised due to  recent round of antibiotics that had killed the bacteria which live in his gut and had allowed a yeast species to grow.

Explanation:

Here, it is given:

  • Man when showed up at a medical facility felt drunk but he had not ingested any alcohol.
  • His blood alcohol has measured 0.37 which is many times a legal limit.
  • Also he claimed that he is home brewer and that intoxication showed is without any consumption of alcohol.

So, this condition can be hypothysed as the man may be on dosage of antibiotics. Whwn human body intakes an amount of antibiotics it kills the bacteria which is present in oue gut and allows an yeast formation to grow there.

So, this might be hypothysed from the given situation.

This condition of his can be changed by putting him on probiotics and by keeping him on a low carbohydrate diet for a week and then recheck for this alcohol consumption test.

Surely, this condition will improve.

In 1668, Francesco Redi conducted an experiment with jars of meat. This experiment was noteworthy because it _____.proved that meat should be refrigerated
disproved that life can generate from nonlife
proved that meat does produce maggots
disproved that meat was bad for you

Answers

Answer: Disproved that life can generate from nonlife.

Explanation:

  • The theory of spontaneous generation stated that life could arise from nonliving objects.
  • To test this theory, Redi conducted an experiment in which he took jars and placed a piece of meat in them. He covered some jars with a muslin cloth and left some of them open.
  • After some time he observed that maggots developed only in the open jars and not in the covered ones.
  • From this, he was able to conclude that life did not spontaneously originate from non-living matter because had it been the case, the covered jars would also have the maggots but since the flies could no enter the jar there were no maggots in them.

Answer:

Disproved that life can generate from nonlife.
