Undesirable traits people should avoid when driving area.all the answsers
b . aggressiveness
c.exhibition
d.egotism
witch of the following is the answer

Answers

a. all of the answers

Undesirable traits people should avoid when driving are aggressiveness, exhibition and egotism. These traits and characters are simply interrelated and interdependent with one another, without egotism or self-centeredness, you wouldn’t consider being hostile and belligerent towards others in the road, you’d paved way and averts exhibition which can cause accidents and unexpected disaster while handling the vehicle. Being considerate beats all three of these traits, they only not jeopardize the driver’s life or the vehicle but mostly especially can cause severe clinical conditions on the victim. Driving is not a game nor for “show off”. It also needs respect and when respect is to be earned you’ve earned it by being on the road like everyone else has.



Courtney is making regular observations of the growth rate of kudzu vines on a ditch in her neighborhood. She isolated and tagged five tendrils of the vine, and takes weekly cumulative measurements for a year. A portion of her results are shown below. What issue with her data does Courtney need to resolve? Tendril #

A) Inconsistent units of measure

B) Insufficient amount of data

C) Duration of the study

D) Number of samples

Answers

Answer: A. Inconsistent units of measure

Explanation:

When taking data such as measurements, it is very important that the results are reported in the same unit of measure. Failure to do so will eventually affect your analysed result.

Answer:

A) Inconsistent units of measure

Explanation:

Since Courtney measured the same variable in all the tagged tendrils, the unit of measurement is supposed to be the same. Before any further processing or analysis of the data, she will need to use the appropriate conversion factors to convert all the variates to the same unit.

The research lasted for a whole year and data were collected weekly, the issue of insufficient data or duration of study does not arise in this case. Also since, the size of study population was not indicated, it will be be difficult to point out the sample size as an issue.
