controls for multiple variables in an experiment.
by an object blocking light
. Randomization.... eliminate bias . Replication . Blocking ( Local control).... reduces variability
If the water is not cloudy or contains visible particulates that would distort objects seen through it, it should be considered transparent. Otherwise, a UV-blocking lens or window pane would be translucent. A different opinion: Translucent because it allows some light to pass through it but not all

Surgical treatments for snoring include several different techniques for removing tissue from the back of the patient's throat, reshaping the nasal passages or jaw, or preventing the tongue from blocking the airway during sleep.

Cutting the stem of hydrilla underwater can prevent air bubbles blocking the xylem.
In experimental design, a block design is a method for reducing variability and improving the accuracy of an experiment by grouping together similar units or subjects and randomly assigning treatments within each group. In a block design, the units or subjects are first grouped into blocks based on some characteristic or variable that may affect the response. For example, in a study of the effects of a new medication on blood pressure, the subjects could be grouped into blocks based on their age or gender. Within each block, the different treatment groups are randomly assigned. This helps to reduce the effect of confounding variables and ensure that the treatments are evenly distributed across the different levels of the blocking variable. Block designs are commonly used in experiments where there is a potential for extraneous variables to affect the results, such as in agricultural or medical research. By using a block design, researchers can control for these variables and improve the accuracy and validity of their conclusions.
There are different entrances.
not blocking means where you do not stand in font of someone (not blocking them)
Blocking is a technique (procedure) that is used in biological / agricultural field experiments to arrange experimental units in groups or blocks that are similar to one another. It is an attemp to improve comparisons of treatments. Blocking will reduce the source of variability and increase precision (and may be accuracy) The theoritical basis of blocking is represented b the following mathematical results. Given X and Y are random variables VAR(X-Y)=VAR(X)+VAR (Y)-2 COV(X,Y) Phendukani Hlatshwayo (M.Sc Agronomy, Candidate from South Africa)
