question 12

Multiple Choice

The following equation. $P(r) =\left[\frac{n !}{r !(n-r) !} p^{r} q^{n-r}\right]$ , can be used to determine the probability of any number of successes, r, so long as there are only two outcomes-success(p) and failure(q) . This is also called the ______.

• A) probability theorem
• B) binomial theorem
• C) proportion theorem
• D) probability distribution theorem

Deuterostomes

A grouping of animals characterized by their embryonic development; during the formation of the mouth and anus, the anus forms before the mouth.

Protostomes

A group of animals within the animal kingdom that develop the mouth before the anus during embryonic development, as part of the blastopore’s fate.

Spiral Cleavage

A type of early embryonic development found in some invertebrates, where cells divide at oblique angles to each other.
