(a) Support
(b) Hematopoietic site
(c) Storage
(d) Providing levers for muscle activity
(e) All of these
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1MC
Solution:
(e) All of these: The function of the skeletal system is to provide lever to the muscles. Bones are the hematopoietic sites. They store nutrients and support the body.
Explanation of Solution
The skeletal system in humans consists of 206 bones and a network of tendons and ligaments. The main functions of this system include the movement, support, protection, formation of various blood cells as well as the storage of calcium and other nutrients in the matrix, and endocrine regulation by releasing the hormone known as osteocalcin.

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?
