Use the data above as a basis as you answer the following questions: (10 points)

(a) Identify THREE biotic or abiotic factors that could cause the sea cucumbers to vary their distance from each other throughout the day.

(b) Using one of the factors listed in part (a) as an independent variable, write a hypothesis that proposes how this variable could cause the sea cucumbers to vary their distance from each other.

(c) Design a procedure for a controlled experiment to test your hypothesis.

(d) Describe the results that would support your proposed hypothesis and the results that would refute your hypothesis.

In photosynthetic cells, synthesis of atp by the chemiosmotic mechanism occurs during _________.
NikAS [45]
In photosynthetic cells, synthesis of ATP by the chemi-osmotic mechanism occurs during photosynthesis and respiration. Plants can only achieve photosynthesis during the day and then respire during the night because photosynthesis requires the sun's energy to perform the necessary reaction to produce oxygen.

Nonrandom mating tends to _______ the frequencies of ______ genotypes. increase; homozygous decrease; homozygous increase; heter
Solnce55 [7]
<span>The answer depends of the kind of non-randommating. If the non-random mating is the kind of positive assortative mating then it tends to increase the frequencies of homozygous genotypes. Positive assortative mating when individuals mate with other individuals like themselves. If the non-random mating is the kind of negative assortative mating, then the effect is the opposite as of the positive assortative mating, this is it tends to decrease the homozygous genotypes.</span>

An important challenge to traditional (pre-1860) ideas about species was the observation that seemingly dissimilar organisms suc
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Dissimilar organisms might have evolved from a distant, common ancestor.

Explanation:

First of all we should know species. Species is considered as a basic unit of taxonomic classification of an organism.

Initially, the scientists are agreed on this phenomenon that all distinct species are evolved gradually from common ancestor. Today, the species which are different from each other just like hummingbirds, humans and whales are from the same ancestor but with the time passage genetic mutation occurs and at the end dissimilar organisms we can see in our environment/surroundings.

Monica [59]

Answer:

B. differential

Explanation:

The culture medium is a chemical preparation that has the necessary nutrients for microorganisms of a given biological sample to multiply, allowing its study, identification and analysis. The main components of a culture medium are sources of carbon, energy (sugars), nitrogen, phosphorus and minerals.

There are several types of culture medium, among them we can mention the differential culture medium, which is the type of medium that is being used in the experiment shown in the question above. The differential culture medium allows the distinction between various genera and species of similar microorganisms. This distinction is possible because this type of culture medium has substances that allow for a presumptive differentiation, evidenced by the color change or the morphology of the colonies.
