Which data would be best analyzed and communicated using a histogram?

Vocaloid:

is this the whole question? it seems like there might be answer choices that go with this

darrenbravard:

the daily high temperature at a woodland weather station, measured every day for a year counts for nine different species of duck sighted on a given date the relative percentages of plant spores found in a sample of 10,000–year–old lake muck the average number of clams dredged up at different depth ranges (5–10 m, 10–15 m thes are the answer choices

Vocaloid:

|dw:1528895856328:dw|

Vocaloid:

any ideas so far? notice how the histogram has "ranges" of values on the x-axis looking at the answer choices which one also has this characteristic?

darrenbravard:

I would say it would be the last choice ?

Vocaloid:

good, well done

darrenbravard:

thank you for your help

darrenbravard:

Which statement is true?

darrenbravard:

A hypothesis must be based on the researcher's analysis of the data collected in the experiment. A hypothesis must be testable for it to be useful in scientific research. A hypothesis must be supported by the results of the research study

Vocaloid:

any ideas? keep in mind the hypothesis is done ~before~ any experimentation/data is collected

darrenbravard:

the second one ?

Vocaloid:

perfect

darrenbravard:

thx I might need help with a few more some of these question I don't understand like this one right here

darrenbravard:

Which of these is a hypothesis?

darrenbravard:

Salmon are kept in their natural habitat and treated with fungicides whenever infected. The yield of salmon is 2,000 kilograms in the month of April and 1,500 kilograms in the month of October. Salmon are more prone to infections during the summer than in other seasons

Vocaloid:

well a hypothesis must be testable, it can't just be a factual statement that being said which statement might be the best hypothesis?

Vocaloid:

well, let's use process of elimination "The yield of salmon is 2,000 kilograms in the month of April and 1,500 kilograms in the month of October." this is more along the lines of a factual statement rather than something that can be tested/experimented on, so let's eliminate B

darrenbravard:

i want to say the first one

Vocaloid:

hm, that's a good guess, but I'd still say C is the better option because it allows the experimenters to create an experiment comparing infection rates in salmon in different seasons

Vocaloid:

A is more along the lines of an experimental procedure/directions rather than a hypothesis

darrenbravard:

ok thx and that is right because they can experiment

Vocaloid:

yeah sorta

darrenbravard:

ok ill text you if i need anymore help

darrenbravard:

A certain skin lotion is a fine mixture of water and various oils. This lotion is cloudy and cannot be separated into oil and water by filtration or centrifuge. What type of mixture is it? colloid suspension solution i think its the first one

Vocaloid:

good

darrenbravard:

ok we gonna be here for a while if that's fine with u

Vocaloid:

I can't stay on all day but I'll do what I can

darrenbravard:

ok

darrenbravard:

Oxygen is denoted How many protons and neutrons does an oxygen atom have? 16 protons and 16 neutrons 8 protons and 8 neutrons 8 protons and 16 neutrons i think its the last one

Vocaloid:

does it say something like 16 O 8 if so then yes

darrenbravard:

yea

Vocaloid:

yeah then i agree w/ the last choice

darrenbravard:

13C and 14C are isotopes of 12C, which has 6 electrons, 6 protons, and 6 neutrons. What is the arrangement of subatomic particles in 14C? 6 electrons, 7 protons, and 6 neutrons 6 electrons, 7 protons, and 8 neutrons 6 electrons, 6 protons, and 8 neutrons I think its the second one

Vocaloid:

hm. you have to be careful. any isotope of carbon is still carbon so it will only have 6 protons not 7

darrenbravard:

ok so the last one?

Vocaloid:

good

darrenbravard:

Covalent bonds are in the air you breathe and the water you drink. How are covalent bonds formed? between atoms with more electrons than protons between atoms that share electrons between atoms with more neutrons than protons I think its the last one or the first one

Vocaloid:

|dw:1528898015007:dw| the distinguishing feature of a covalent bond is that the atoms ~share~ electrons

darrenbravard:

?

darrenbravard:

nevermind I understand now

darrenbravard:

Calcium oxide (CaO) forms when an atom of calcium loses two electrons, giving it a +2 charge and an atom of oxygen picks up two electrons, giving it a –2 charge. What is calcium oxide? an element a covalently bonded compound an ionically bonded compound is it the second one?

Vocaloid:

hm. not quite. covalent would be sharing two electrons, but here the calcium is "stealing" two electrons from the oxygen so it's the other type of bond

darrenbravard:

so the last one?

Vocaloid:

yup

darrenbravard:

ok

Vocaloid:

anyway I kind of need to get going, I think @nuts should know how to do this if he's available for help

Vocaloid:

you can use the @ symbol to tag someone and get their attention

darrenbravard:

ok thx
