a) true.
b) false.

1. B) False

2. B) False

3. A) True.

Explanation:

1. The scientists are not required to reveal any conflict of interests in their reports as the content will be irrelevant for the research point of view. This can discourage the audience from reading and analyzing the report the actual research outcome will not be given much importance or attention as required.

3. One can be confident for the claims made by checking and re-checking processes of the conclusions of data because this process will increase the reliability and validity of the data which are included in the peer-reviewed journals.

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
