Answer:
The cost of alternative dialysis modalities for the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) was evaluated, using a societal viewpoint, in a regional nephrology program in south-western Ontario. The dialysis treatments compared were hospital hemodialysis, home hemodialysis, self-care hemodialysis, and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The participants were all patients treated by the same dialysis modality for the fiscal year April 1990 to March 1991. Fully allocated costs are expressed in 1993 Canadian dollars. The average costs per patient year were $88,585 for hospital hemodialysis, $55,593 for self-care hemodialysis, $44,790 for CAPD, and $32,570 for home hemodialysis. The dialysis treatment costs were $54,929 for hospital hemodialysis, $43,313 for self-care hemodialysis, $31,918 for CAPD, and $26,048 for home hemodialysis. These data quantify the magnitude of the differences between fully-allocated costs among the dialysis modalities in a regional nephrology program in Canada. The methodology used in this economic analysis can be applied to programs which differ in structure and scale. The breakdown of dialysis treatment costs into overhead, support department, personnel, supplies, and medication identifies potential areas for cost reduction strategies.
Which type of fertilizer is made from natural wastes?

A new neighborhood is built and completely destroys most of a forest. Soon, deer are walking down the sidewalks and eating plants and flowers from yards.
What is the most likely reason why this is happening?
The forest has plenty of food for them, but the deer see easier, newer food sources in the humans’ yards, so the deer are in the neighborhood because they prefer the food there.
The deer have been living close to humans and have become used to seeing them and are being curious since deer like humans.
The deer have been forced into a small area and lack enough food, so they are wandering out of their small forest home searching for food.
The light from the neighborhood has confused the deer, and so they are wandering into the streets because they are disoriented.
Answer:
I think its the 3rd answer
Explanation:
The first answer could be close but if the forest was mostly destroyed, then it would not have plenty of food for them. They also might not prefer the food there. The second option isn't correct because the deer wouldn't take their chances being around creatures (humans) that they have never seen before or didn't see that much. Also, the sound of the construction would scare them off. The fourth option isn't correct because while yes, the lights may disorient the deer, it probably wouldn't want to make the deer wander into the neighborhood. When you see a deer looking in headlights, they don't walk towards your car, they just stand there. This is why I think the 3rd answer is correct.

Use the information and pictures to answer the following question.
In August 2010, the Asian Clam was discovered in Lake George. It is not native to that lake. A single Asian Clam can reproduce and release hundreds of offspring in a day. Fish and crayfish eat the clams but cannot keep pace with the rate at which the clams reproduce. The Asian Clam eats the same food as native clams.
A scientist set up two model lakes in large tanks with the same animal species as Lake George in order to test how the Asian Clam might be impacting the ecosystem. The scientists added Asian Clams to one tank but not the other tank.
image
Which statement BEST predicts what would likely happen in the experimental tank?
A.
The impact would be negative because it would reduce the amount of food available for the fish and crayfish populations.
B.
The impact would be positive because it would reduce competition with native clams and increase the stability of the ecosystem.
C.
The impact would be negative because it would increase competition with native clams and reduce the stability of the ecosystem.
D.
The impact would be positive because it would provide the fish and crayfish populations with food.
Answer:
C.The impact would be negative because it would increase competition with native clams and reduce the stability of the ecosystem.
Explanation:
Since, It states that:
Tank 1: Tank 2:
Fish Fish
crayfish crayfish
Asian clam
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thus, since they both eat Asian clam which means competition as well as it would be negative. Therefore, that left us with [C] .
Hence, Answer = [C]

Mean = 99
Median = 26
Mode = 26
c.
Mean = 24.8
Median = 34
Mode = 26
b.
Mean = 24.8
Median = 26
Mode = 25
d.
Mean = 24.8
Median = 26
Mode = 26
Please select the best answer from the choices provided
A
B
C
D
Answer:
D.
Mean: 24.8
Median: 26
Mode: 26
Explanation:
The mean is the average. To find the average, add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers there are.
30 + 26 + 25 + 11 + 34 + 20 + 26 + 26 = 198
Now, we divide by how many numbers we started out with (8).
198 divided by 8 = 24.75, rounded would be 24.8
To find the median, you arrange the numbers from smallest to largest, and find the middle number like this:
11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34
As you can see, the middle number is 26.
To find the mode, you arrange the number from smallest to largest, and find the number that appears more often.
11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34
As you can see, the number 26 appears the most often.
So, we end up with:
Mean: 24.8
Median: 26
Mode: 26

The red dots represent oxygen molecules in this diagram. This diagram shows __________.
facilitation diffusion
osmosis
diffusion
exocytosis
endocytosis
The correct answer is option B.
Diffusion is the process of movement of both the solute and solvent. the characteristic of diffusion is that it does not require a membrane or a layer separating two parts. In diffusion particles or solutes move from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration.
In the example, we can see that red particles are together in a place and after some time they get distributed evenly in the entire liquid. This process is known as diffusion as it does not require a membrane.

Living things need energy
Your essay need to include;
producer
consumer
decomposer
Answer/Explanation:
∴ ║ Living Things Need Energy ║∴The ability to obtain and use energy is one of the eight characteristics of all living things. Scientists classify organisms based on how they get their energy: autotrophs or heterotrophs. Organisms are divided into three main groups- the producers, the consumers and the decomposers.
Producers get their energy from abiotic factors (non-living sources). Most producers are plants and get their energy directly from the sun using a process called photosynthesis. There are also some bacteria that can make their own food from chemicals using a process call chemosynthesis. Examples of common producers are grasses, trees and flowers. Algae (which are protists, not plants) are the main producers in aquatic ecosystems. Remember we call these autotrophs because they can make their own food.
Consumers cannot make their own food. Instead, they get their energy by eating other organisms. These are also called heterotrophs. There are many types of consumers. Herbivores, such as grasshoppers and prairie dogs, only eat producers. Carnivores eat animals. Coyotes, badgers, and falcons are all carnivores. Organisms that eat both producers and other consumers are known as omnivores. Most humans are omnivores. Scavengers are a special type of omnivore. They eat dead plants and animals. Vultures and many insects are common scavengers.
Decomposers are a very special type of heterotroph because they get energy by breaking down dead or dying organisms. Bacteria and fungi (mushrooms, molds and mildews) are examples of decomposers. Decomposers are important to ecosystems because they return important nutrients such as water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen to the soil. Plants then use these nutrients to grow, creating a cycle of nutrients through the ecosystem.
Each of these organisms depends on the others. Producers get energy from the sun or chemicals and then give some of this energy to consumers. The consumers then give some of their energy to the decomposers. Together, these organisms form a food chain. A food chain is a series of events in which food energy is transferred from one organism to another. All food chains have the basic structure of producer ⇒ primary consumer ⇒ secondary consumer ⇒ tertiary consumer ⇒ decomposer. There are many overlapping food chains in an ecosystem. These overlapping food chains are known as a food web.
As energy passes from level to the level in a food chain within a food web, the amount that each organism receives decreases. For example, in a grassland ecosystem, the grasses get energy needed for life from the sun. Some of this energy is used by the grass to grow and reproduce. When a prairie dog eats the grass, it only gets 10% of the energy the grass originally had. The prairie dog then uses some of the energy from the grass to grow and reproduce. When a coyote eats the prairie dog, it only gets 10% of the energy the prairie dog originally had. This decrease in energy at each level of the food chain can be represented by an energy pyramid.
