How could increasing the number of plants help you decrease error in the experiment? Check all possible reasons. It would increase the sampling error.

It would reduce the significance of any single measurement error.

It would make calculations easier.

Having more data would make the average height less affected by one or two plants that are randomly shorter or taller.

It would make a plant’s death less of an issue.

Increasing the number of plants in an experiment will help decrease the error, because you have more test subjects to run the test on.

Explanation:

The more subjects that you have have the more tests you can run, this will give you a chance to get more accurate and consistent results. When completing an experiment, you normally have to run 5 or more tests in order to get a goos set of data. So by increasing the number of plants you test on, you'll be able to get a better set of data.

cells use diffusion to get substances in and out of themselves. that diffusion will occur across the cell membrane or the outer covering of the cell. because we are talking about the surface of the cell, surface area and volume are  important factors here. as a cell increases in size, its surface area and volume increase as well.  we call that the surface area to volume ratio (sa: vol).  but the catch is that  volume increases at a greater rate than surface  area. in other words, as a cell gets bigger, the sa: vol gets smaller. so a really small cell like bacteria is mostly cell membrane (surface) with very little contents (volume). a really big cell like an egg, is mostly insides with a super thin membrane. so what ends up happening is that the cell cannot efficiently diffuse all of the stuff it needs in/out to survive. therefore cell size is limited to about 100mm. so how do we make organisms bigger than 100mm? cells divide! by dividing and becoming multicellular, organisms are able to grow!   check out the diagrams i attached to see the effect of sa: vol. i hope this ! good luck!

maybe because its impossible for balloons to lift a whole entire house.
