A student decides to set up an experiment to see if detergent affects the growth of seeds. he sets up 10 seed pots. 5 of the see

d pots will receive a small amount of detergent in the soil and will be placed in the sun. the other 5 seed pots will not receive detergent and will be placed in the shade. all 10 seed pots will receive the same amount of water, the same number of seeds, and the same type of seeds. he grows the seeds for two months and charts the growth every 2 days. what is wrong with his experiment?

By placing the pots with detergent in the sun and the pots without detergent in the shade, the student is not comparing the effects that detergent has in the growing rate of the seeds under the same conditions; besides, he does not have a control group. Therefore, he will not be able to determine if the growing rate of the plants were affected by the detergent, the lack of sunlight, or a combination of both factors.

frez [133]
I think this is a good plan. In this way, it would stop flooding in the future. Trees help absorb water with their roots. It can absorb at least 20% of the flood water. 

However, there are also factors that would affect the trees from growing healthily. Some of the trees would not receive the right amount of energy and sediments can possibly be mix with the good soil.

It is best that we examine why the flooding occurred. There could be other possible reasons for flooding. It can be pollution caused by people throwing their garbages anywhere.

Explain how gravitational contraction, radioactivity, and asteroid and meteorite bombardment heated early earth
Afina-wow [57]
The surface of the early Earth is often described as hellish by scientists. The high temperature is primarily attributed to the high levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the molten rock on the surface of the planet. However, these two aren't the only factors in play.  
Another factor that contributed to the extremely high temperature of the early earth is radioactivity. Radioactive decay of the isotopes found underground plus the left over heat from the formation of our planet produced high levels of radiogenic heat.
There's also the kinetic energy from falling asteroids and meteorites. Massive amounts of energy in the form of heat and sound is produced when asteroids and meteorites hit the Earth. Also, the pressure waves that travel radially outwards the center of the impact is similar to the impact of an atom bomb. As such, dust particles envelop the atmosphere, trapping the heat from the impact. 
The last factor is the gravitational contraction, it contributed to the hellish temperature of primordial Earth because the energy generated from such event is enough to trigger hydrogen fusion.

Jackson will be taking his college entrance exam next weekend. Part A Relate each of the following terms to his preparation for
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Glutamate Hippocampus, Frontal lobe, Sympathetic nervous system Cerebellum and GABA increases the performance during exam.

Explanation:

Glutamate, Hippocampus and Frontal lobe are the factors which help him in the preparation for successfully taking the exam because all these factors are linked to memory and we know that good memory gives good results in the examination. Sympathetic nervous system, Cerebellum and gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) have a great impact on the Jackson's performance on the day of the exam because Sympathetic nervous system sends extra blood to the muscles when there is stressful situation while Cerebellum helps in the coordination of the muscles i. e. helps in movement of muscles such as for writing. Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is eaten orally due to relieving the anxiety during stressful condition.
