Explanation of Solution

The given graph shows the effect of pH on the hemoglobin-oxygen binding. Oxygen level represents the X-axis, and the Y-axis represents the percentage of hemoglobin bound to the oxygen. In the given graph, the dependent variable is the percentage of hemoglobin bound O2.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The pH value that represents the higher concentration of hydrogen ion and also explains their nature.

Introduction: pH value can be defined as hydrogen ion concentration in the solution. The solution which has a higher concentration of hydrogen ion is considered acidic, and a solution with a lower concentration of hydrogen ion is basic.

Explanation of Solution

The given graph shows three pH values that have a higher concentration of hydrogen ion are 7.2, 7.4, and 7.6. The solution which has a pH value less than seven are considered acidic, but in the above graph, the values which are the least basic have the higher acidic content. The pH value of 7.2 has a higher concentration of hydrogen ion. The pH value of 7.2 is more acidic than the other two pH values.

Q8. A researcher wants to study the effectiveness of a pill intended to reduce stomach heartburn in pregnant women. The researcher chooses randomly 400 women to participate in this experiment for 9 months of their pregnancy period. They all need to have the same diet. The researcher designs two groups of 200 participants: One group take the real medication intended to reduce heartburn, while the other group take placebo medication. In this study what are: Independent variable: Dependent variable: Control variable: Experimental group: " Control group: If the participants do not know who is consuming the real pills and who is consuming the sugar pills. This study is It happens that 40% of the participants do not find the treatment helpful and drop out after 6 months. The researcher throws out the data from subjects that drop out. What type of bias is there in this study? If the company who makes the medication funds this research, what type of bias might exist in this research work?
