Answer:
B. No fallacy
Explanation:
First of, we need to know what a fallacy is. A fallacy is a mistaken belief, especially one based on unsound arguments.
A sound argument is an argument in which the truth in the premises are used to deduce the conclusions. While an unsound argument, makes use of premises that are not true.
With these, we can determine if the argument in the question was a sound argument. If it was, it won't be fallacious.
There is truth in the fact that the slim tea made Barbara loose 15 pounds after taking it for the stated period of time.
Therefore, concluding that someone with the same buildup as Barbara will have the same results, after taking the tea for the same period of time, is logical and not fallacious. This is because the premise is a true fact that has been tested, and the conclusion was drawn from the true premise.
This makes the argument a sound argument, with no fallacy

Operational definitions allow researchers to:______. A. Formulate hypotheses that can be tested during an experiment.B. Avoid the placebo effect in experimental settings.C. Measure the constructs they are interested in.D. Obtain informed consent from participants.
Answer:
C. Measure the constructs they are interested in
Explanation:
An operational definition is one that allows the researchers to describe in a specific way and is a statement of the producers and suggests that the research is going on and in order to use the measure of the specific variables that are studied in the research.Operational definitions are crucial in research as they allow for the measurement and replication of constructs, thereby ensuring the reliability and validity of experiments.
Explanation:Operational definitions allow researchers to measure the constructs they are interested in. By defining variables in terms of the physical or concrete steps it takes to objectively measure them, operational definitions ensure that data can be collected systematically and replicated by other researchers. This is crucial for establishing consistency and reliability in research, as well as facilitating validity, which reflects how well a study measures what it is designed to measure. These definitions set clear criteria and limits for the study, which are essential for comparing results across different studies and for other researchers to repeat the experiments if needed.
Look at the world map below. In which region of the world did European powers dominate a weaker country’s economy by dividing it into spheres of influence rather than establishing colonies?
A. Region D
Explanation:
The European countries were well known for conquering countries and establishing colonies all over the world, but they made an exception in one, that being China. Instead of make China a colony, the European countries, usually in bad relations, worked together to take over parts of it, as it was in their best interest.
It may seem unthinkable nowadays for someone to divide China in spheres of interest, but back in the 19th and early 0th century, the country was in terrible condition, so it was easy target for the Europeans. The European interest was mainly economic, so instead of going after all of the Chinese territory, the Europeans captured only the Chinese coastline. This was tactically excellent move, as China was still producing a lot, but it had to export the goods through the sea, and with the Europeans controlling the coastline, the Chinese had to sell everything to them for minimum compensation, while the Europeans were making huge profits.
Answer:it’s region D

Your friend is having a hard time with the terminology in this unit. He is confused between the terms pure substances, mixtures, elements, compounds, homogeneous, and heterogeneous, as well as the difference between physical and chemical changes. Without just reciting the definitions, explain each term to your friend and provide at least two examples of each that will help him understand the concepts better.
Answer and Explanation:
Pure substances are basically chemical substances with distinct composition and properties that are constant. They may consist of one atom, molecule or compound that cannot be easily separated by physical separation technique. Examples of pure substances are iron, water, gold etc. Mixtures are made up of two or more substances that are not chemically combined together, in which each substance that make up the mixture still retains their chemical identity, and can separated by physical method. Examples of mixtures are brass made up of different metals, salt water, milk etc. Elements are pure chemical substances that are made up of a single type of atom which cannot be easily broken down. For example, hydrogen, oxygen, iron. Compounds are made up of two more different elements that are chemically bonded together by chemical bonds. Examples include NaCl or salt, which is made up of Na and Cl; Water which is made up of Hydrogen and Oxygen Homogenous mixture contains substances of uniform composition, e.g, air which consists of mixture of gases; a mixture of salt and water; milk etc. Heterogenous mixture, on the other hand contains substances whose distribution are not uniform, i.e. non-uniform. Examples are a mixture of sand and water; water and oil etc. Physical change is a type of change that involves the change of form of a matter without the chemical properties being altered. This is a reversible change. On the other hand, a chemical change is an irreversible change in which the chemical properties of a matter are changed. Examples of physical change are freezing of water, melting an ice cube, melting of wax etc. Examples of chemical change are burning of wood, rusting of iron etc.Crowding out occurs because the government increases the demand for loanable funds, drives up interest rates, and causes: Select one: a. saving to rise. b. saving to fall. c. consumption and investment to rise. d. consumption and investment to fall.

Between 1910 and 1917, the Mexican Revolution evolved from a liberal movement into a comprehensive societal upheaval that included almost all levels of society. Discuss by using specific evidence.
Answer:
The Mexican Revolution involved all sections of the society. Different rebel groups and middle-class population participated in the movement which became a point of comprehensive societal upheaval.Explanation:
The Mexican Revolution reached its zenith between 1910 and 1917. It was a tireless and violent struggle among different factions and groups that tried to end the 30 years dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz.
Porfirio Diaz was infamously known for his dictatorial policies who only favored the wealthy landowners and industrialists. As discontentment grew among the middle-class and lower class population, numerous figures and factions sprung up in an attempt to end his rule. In the north, Pascual Orozco and Pancho Villa mobilized an army against Diaz while Emiliano Zapata from the South started a war against the rich rural landowners.
After Porfirio Díaz's end in 1911, Francisco Madero became the President of Mexico. However, it was short-lived as Emiliano Zapata, from the South, turned against him. This was mainly because of Madero's incompetency to satisfy Zapata's reforms. There was an disarray among the revolutionaries because of conflicting ideas and interests in establishing their own set of ideal government.
Thus, the struggle to establish a government with contrasting motives by each factional leaders became prominent during this period. It caused a comprehensive societal upheaval that included almost all levels of society.

While hiking in South America, a member of your group becomes ill with fever and chills after passing through a swampy area. A resident of the area removes bark from a nearby tree and has the ill person chew on it, which has a beneficial effect. The effective ingredient was likely _______ from the _______ tree.
Answer:
The effective ingredient was likely quinine from the cinchona tree.
Explanation:
Quinine is obtained from the bark of the cinchona tree and it is used in the treatment of malaria. Malaria is transmitted to humans by several species of mosquitoes. In South America, Malaria is mostly transmitted in rain forest areas in northern countries. Therefore, in the situation we are studying here, the member who became ill might have been infected. The quinine present in the cinchona bark made him feel better.
Answer:
quinine; Cinchona.
Explanation:
So, let us analyze this question one by one in order to get the answer correctly since we are not given options to make it easier for us. We will start from the symptoms that is the fever and chills and the few Health conditions relating to the symptoms are pneumonia, Flu, Hypothermia, Malaria and so on.
Then, the person has the symptoms after "passing through a swampy area" which narrows the health condition that it might probably be a mosquito bite leading to Malaria.
The Cinchona plant contains alkaloid such as quinine which can be extracted from the bark of the plant and this can be used for the treatment.
And this make a lot of sense since Quinine extraction was done in South America first.
