The level in biomedical research most frequently uses mice is:
What is applied?
This is the area of science studies biological life processes and the causes for disease:
What is Biomedical Research?
The level of biomedical research that is considered a foundation or "building block" level is known as:
What is basic?
During biomedical research using animals, a controlled group was given a placebo; the likely response of this group would be:
What is no response?
Chemical, mechanical, and computer simulations are effective research methods but cannot:
What is replace laboratory testing on animals?
This stage of clinical trials involves extensive testing, using around 1,000-3,000 subjects, with the purpose of determining a drug's efficacy and adverse reactions.
What is Phase 3?
This type of epidemiological study is greatly limited by ethical and legal consideration.
What is experimental?
The type of research method that may be conducted on either animals, humans, computer models, or tissue cultures is:
What is applied research?
Epidemiology studies may be divided up into 3 general types:
experimental, descriptive, and observational; experimental, comparison, and case-controlled; observational, descriptive, and case-controlled; observational, retrospective, and experimental.
What is experimental, descriptive, and observational?
The phase of clinical research that is used to determine a drug's interaction with human system, involves a small number of health volunteers, and usually takes around one year to finish.
What is Phase I?
The study that established that the 14th century Black Plague was spread from rats to humans via fleas.
What is epidemiological?
Studies that are most likely conducted in vitro means:
What is a petri dish or test tube?
This term best describes the study of disease incidence and its distribution in a population.
What is epidemiology?
This is considered the level of research if a researcher is working on findings that will be used to develop a vaccine or new treatment.
What is applied?
This phase of clinical trials is the safety and effectiveness of medication tested on the greatest number and variety of participants.
What is Phase II?
To obtain the most accurate results, the test should include an experimental group and:
What is a controlled group?
This group is often given a placebo or inactive substance when a new medication is tested in biomedical research.
What is control?
This type of research involves human subjects and is conducted after other forms of research have already taken place.
What is clinical research?
A major disadvantage of epidemiological studies is that:
What is considerable human exposure can take place before a toxic effect is detectable?
The type of research that is directed towards specific objectives and is conducted using animals and other nonanimal models such as computers and tissue cultures is:
What is applied research?
