Raya is a gardening enthusiast who is looking to buy a new house. She wonders whether her house plants will grow well if she buy

s an apartment on a higher floor. She remembers that her friend Jenn also has a small garden on her balcony, and her plants seem healthy. Raya conducts an experiment to study the effect of altitude on the growth of plants. She gathers plant samples and places them on five different floors of a 20-story building. Identify the basic components of Raya’s experiment, including the confounding variable.

Answer:

1. Independent variable- the altitude

2. Dependent variable- the growth of plants

3. Constant variable- the amount of water and nutrients

4. Confounding variable: the storeys of the building.

Explanation:

The basic components of a scientific experiment are the types of variables included in the experiment which are dependent (to be studied), independent (can be changed)  and the constant variables (remain same).

The experiment is also influenced by another variable called confounding variable which directly influence these basic variables and can cause or produce the useless results in an experiment.

In the given question,

1. Independent variable- the altitude  

2. Dependent variable- the growth of plants

3. Constant variable- the amount of water and nutrients  

4. Confounding variable: the storeys of the building.

The basic components (depedent and indepedent variables) are the plants and altitude while the confounding variable is the 20 story building. Confounding variables affect the experiement variable and are mainly outside of the researcher’s control in the experiment.  Ray cannot change the building but this variable can affect the depedent and indepedent variables and cause distorted or spurious results.

At the end of _____ and cytokinesis there are four haploid cells. At the end of _____ and cytokinesis there are four haploid cel
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

At the end of<u> telophase II </u>and cytokinesis, there are four haploid cells.cells.

Explanation:

During telophase II the sister chromosomes separate from each other and move to the opposite ends of the cell. Once that the chromosomes are in the opposite ends, the cytokinesis starts, this is the division of the cytoplasm that will give two daughter haploid cells.

We have to remember that there will be four haploid cells because there are two cells, which are the result of meiosis I, that will go into meiosis II to give these four daughters haploid cells. Also, the phases in meiosis I and II are very similar. Both of them have prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The amphipathic property of the phospholipids that constitute the membrane

Explanation:

It seems like a options-based answer so it would be better if they were included here but basically, each of those phospholipid molecules has two parts with antagonistic reactions towards water.

The head is polar or hydrophilic, wich means it can be sorrounded by water. The tail, is apolar or hydrophobic which means it is repelled by water.

The interior and exterior of the cell is contain water-based substances, that's why the heads of the phospholipids are oriented like that with the tails protected inside the membrane.

This double layer structure has a fundamental role in the fluid property of the cell membrane from which derive most of it's functions.

Which two factors contributed to creating a truly global culture? a decrease in population growth rate improvements in telecommu
lora16 [44]

Answer:

1. Improvements in telecommunication

2. Improvements in global travel

Explanation:

Global culture refers to <u>the transmission of beliefs, values, and ideas around the world that has a significant impact in the behavior of society</u>. This has been evolving through time, especially since the Industrial Revolution. Today, we are capable of communicating with other people as quickly and easy as ever in the history of humanity and this will keep evolving as technology evolves as well.

This evolution is due to science and technology, especially to the improvements in telecommunication, which <u>enables us to communicate with people from other countries through calls, social media messagings, e-mails, etc.</u>, and to the improvements in global travel, which is <u>much more accessible today than it was before, allowing individuals to move from one country to the other easily and constantly and improving socialization between people from different cultures and backgrounds.</u>

kkurt [141]
I think the most challenging part of human remains would be knowing that you're working with parts of a person who used to be alive. The most interesting part would be figuring out the person's past based on their remains like what they ate, their cultural background, etc.
I hope this helped
