What is the advantage of having grape-like clusters called alveoli as part of the respiratory system?
A) Alveoli allow for an increase in surface area, which maximizes gas exchange.
B) Alveoli are circular in structure, which is ideal for maximal gas exchange.
C) Because alveoli have thinner walls, gas exchange in the lungs is facilitated.
D) The grape-like shape of alveoli allows capillaries to be in closer proximity to gases.

In determining the causal effect of Price on Sales, if advertising spend is a good control variable, how will the correlation of the error terms from the regression, Salesi = ?0 + ?1Pricei + Ui, and Salesi = ?0 + ?1Pricei + ?2Advertisingi + Vi and price be related?
A. Cor(Ui, Pricei) ? 0, Cor(Pricei, Vi) = 0 B. Cor(Ui, Vi) = 0 C. Cor(Ui, Pricei) = 0, Cor(Pricei, Vi) ? 0 D. Cor(Ui, Pricei) = 0, Cor(Pricei, Vi) = 0
When Pasteur tested the hypothesis of spontaneous generation, he compared the ability of a sterilized growth medium (meat broth) to produce a population of bacteria in two different types of flasks. One had a simple neck open to the outside, and the
other had a "goose neck" bend that also was open to the environment. Pasteur expected that bacteria would appear in the flask with the standard neck. In this experiment, the standard neck flask served as a/an: A) statistic. B) variable. C) control. D) observation. E) hypothesis.
