Since the early 1990s, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been widely used to treat acid refl ux disease. Although clinical tests in the 1980s deemed PPIs to be safe for humans, in 2012 the FDA announced warnings that long-term use of PPIs could increase the risk of bone fractures, kidney disease, and some intestinal infections.

Which statement best explains why the safety of PPIs is now in question when clinical experiments in the 1980s provided evidence that they were safe?

a)

Researchers have been able to collect more data than were available in the 1980s.

b)

Fewer people had acid reflux in the 1980s compared to today.

c)

The medication containing PPIs has changed since the 1980s when tests were done.

d)

The original experiments in the 1980s used only test animals and did not use human subjects.

11.

One coach of an Olympic rowing team makes his athletes warm up by doing 30 minutes of stretching and jogging in place before practicing each day. Another coach suggests that resting before practicing will result in better performance by her team. They decide to conduct an experiment to see which practice is correct. One team rests before practice, the other team warms up for thirty minutes, and they then record the time that it takes each team to row a specific distance.

Identify the dependent variable in this experiment.

a)

Type of Exercise

b)

Amount of Rest

c)

Amount of Time to Row a Distance

d)

Number of Athletes

12.

A student squeezes a clothespin 82 times in a minute. Then, using the same hand and the same clothespin, he squeezes the clothespin 68 times in a minute.

State one biological reason for the decrease in the number of squeezes during the second trial.

a)

The student was not strong

b)

Waste Build Up in the Cells

c)
