• A) The amount of a gas that diffuses across a membrane depends on the differences in the gas' partial pressure.
• B) The ability of hemoglobin to bind oxygen depends on the partial pressure of oxygen.
• C) In a mixture of gases, the total pressure of the mixture is the sum of the pressures of the individual gases.

Definitions:

Multiple Coefficient

Often refers to the multiple correlation coefficient in statistics, describing the strength and direction of a linear relationship between more than two variables.

Determination

In statistical analysis, it often refers to the extent to which variation in one variable determines or predicts the variation in another variable, commonly assessed with the coefficient of determination (R²).

Observations

Data points or values collected during an experiment or survey.

Multiple Coefficient

A broader term potentially indicating coefficients in multiple regression that represent the relationship between explanatory variables and the response variable.
