SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY
INTERPRET THE DATA Ihe feather moss Pleurozium schreberi harbors species of symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Scientists studying this moss in northern forests found that the percentage of the ground surface“covered” by the moss increased from about 5% in forests that burned 35 to 41 years ago to about 70% in forests that burned 170 or more years ago From mosses growing in these forests, they also obtained the following data on nitrogen fixation:
(a) Use the data to draw a line graph, with age on the x-axis and the nitrogen fixation rate on the y-axis.
(B) Along with the nitrogen added by nitrogen fixation, about 1kg of nitrogen per hectare per year is deposited into northern forests from the atmosphere as rain and small particles. Evaluate the extent to which Pleurozium affects nitrogen availability in northern forests of different ages.

A negligence action was brought by a mother against a hospital on behalf of her minor daughter. It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth.
Did a patient relationship with the transfusing hospital exist?
