Answer:

Effect of independent variable is studied on the dependent variable or subject of the experiment.

Explanation:

The independent variables are very important in an experiment. Basically the affect of an independent variable is studied on the subject or dependent variable.

Thus, it can be said that independent variable will produce the effect on the dependent variable.

Here in this case the different types of disinfectants are the independent variable and their effect will be  observed on the bacteria (subject or dependent variable)

In 1986, a nuclear power accident in Chernobyl, USSR (now Ukraine), led to high radiation levels for miles surrounding the plant
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Radiation leads to mutations that causes genetic drift and decrease fitness.

Explanation:

Radiation is responsible for changing or altering the DNA sequence within a cell.

Radiation either causes mutation or it leads to cell death.

Most of the ionizing radiation causes mutation within the  deep inside of our cells which eventually leads genetic drift which means change in the frequency of the allele in a population over time.

Beneficial mutation confer advantage to the organism. But in this case, the mutation is not beneficial and decreases the fitness of the rodent organisms.

A scientist observes a population crash among eagles within an island ecosystem. Which event might have led to such a crash?
arlik [135]

Answer:

The closing of a dam caused the island to flood.

Explanation:

A population crash is a sudden decline in the numbers of individual members in a population, species or group of organisms. This can be caused by disease, environmental stress (such as pollution), or when its numbers exceed the carrying capacity of its habitat.

Of the four options, the one that would result in the destruction of the habitat and ecosystem which supports the population of the eagle would be flooding of the island due to the closing of a dam.
