Which of the following conclusions is supported by the data from this survey?
A. Dally screen usage in the United States decreases with age
B. Daily screen usage in the United States, increases with age.
C. In the United States, most people use screens more than 3 but less than13 hours a day
D. In the United States, people over 75 generally don't use screens.
The percentage of respondents that indicated average screen usage between 4-12 hours per day is (628 +650+389) ÷ 2, 307 ≈ 0.723 or 72.3% This is indeed a significant majority of the responses and would be a reasonable conclusion. The highest screen usage is in the middle two groups with both the younger and older groups indicating less screen usage, so the daily usage neither increases nor decreases with age. While the oldest group shows the least usage per day, the survey data indicates that some of the Individuals over 75 do indeed use screens.
Therefore, the Correct Answer is C.

Q #1: What types of reaction is Cu (s) + 2AgNO3(aq) → 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)?
A. Single replacement
B. Double replacement
C. Synthesis
D. Decomposition
Answer Explanation
This is a single replacement reaction in which copper replaces silver. The copper combines with the nitrate ions, and the silver precipitates out. Single replacement reactions have the general form of
A + BC →
AC + B. Double replacement reactions have the general form of AB + CD→
AD + CB. Synthesis reactions have the general form of A + B →
AB. Decomposition reactions have the general form AB→

Q #2: Every child in a certain family has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Based on this evidence, what possible conclusion can be drawn about ASD?
A. ASD may be lethal.
B. ASD may be genetic.
C. ASD is related to traditional nuclear family structures,
D. No conclusion can be drawn based on this evidence.
Answer Explanation
The evidence says that every child in a certain family has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). All of these children have genetic commonalities. Therefore, ASD may be genetic.
The evidence does not mention whether the children died from ASD. Therefore, no conclusion can be drawn that ASD may be lethal. Furthermore, the sample size of the evidence is much too small to suggest that ASD is related to traditional nuclear family structures.

Q #3: Homeostasis is defined as:
A. Ability of human beings to keep body weight within normal limits
B. Maintenance of a constant external temperature inside a room
C. Ingestion of enough food to keep hunger pains from developing
D. Tendency of the body to maintain a stable environment
Answer Explanation
Homeostatic mechanisms are involuntary actions by organs, glands, tissues and cells to maintain balance within the body. If a function is disrupted the body will readjust in an attempt to maintain balance. During periods of starvation the body will break down glucose reserves in order to maintain normal glucose levels.
