Numerous studies, including genetic studies, randomized controlled trials on lipid lowering medications, and observational
studies point to LDL having a causal role in heart disease. Which term best describes the concept that LDL plays a causal role in
heart disease?
Theory
a proposed explanation for a problem or set of observations
hypothesis
"I tried this diet and lost 30 lbs." What type of evidence is this?
Anecdote
Scientists gather 20 studies looking at the relationship between protein intake and lean body mass, and then they statistically
analyze them together as a group. What type of study is this?
Meta-analysis
,Which of the following is an example of descriptive research?
Survey
Scientists perform a study comparing 1000 women with breast cancer to 1000 women without breast cancer. They gather
information on the women's diets and look to see if the women diagnosed with breast cancer had more fat in their diet
compared to the women who did not get cancer. Which term best describes this study?
Case-control study
Which term encompasses the weight of the scientific evidence, field observations, and individual client
needs? Evidence-based practice
Scientists find that a protein supplement increases lean mass in the elderly. However, they caution that the results may not
apply to other populations, like younger people. What term best describes what the scientists are referring to?
External validity
A scientist proposes that sugar is inherently fattening, and performs a study comparing a high-sugar diet to a low-sugar diet with
equal calories. He finds that fat gain was the same between the diets. Which term describes how this study effects the initial
proposal?
Falsification
Which statement best describes science?
It is the use of evidence to construct explanations and predictions of natural phenomena.
Scientists perform a study looking at the effects of caffeine on vertical jump performance. On one day, they give all the
subjects caffeine followed by vertical jump tests. Two weeks later, they give all the subjects a placebo followed by the same
vertical jump tests. Which term best describes this study design?
crossover
Which term refers to a hypothesis or set of hypotheses for which a large body of high quality evidence has been accumulated?

Communicable disease
Infectious diseases caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi that can be spread (directly or
indirectly) from one person to another.
A noncommunicable disease (NCD) is a medical condition or disease that is not caused by infectious agents; it can refer to
chronic diseases which last for long periods of time and progress slowly.
Noncommunicable
or NCDs, are by far the leading cause of death in the world, representing 71% of all annual deaths.

Preventable causes of death
1- tobacco smoking
2-overweight and
