A student is investigating the affect of different salts on melting points. Four patches of ice of equal size are roped off and

a different
type of salt is poured on each one receives table salt (NaCl), one receives Calcium Chloride (CaCl2), one receives Potassium
Carbonate (KCO3) and the fourth receives Inert sand instead. Each patch receives an equal amount of salt or sand. The student
measures the volume of ice remaining and subtracts it from the original volume of ice to see how much melted away. What is the
dependent variable?
•
A. The type of salt applied to the ice.
B. The amount of lee that melted.
C. The ice that received sand.
D. The size of the Ice patches

Answer:

B. The amount of lee that melted.

Explanation:

The dependent variable is more of what results from an action during an experiment. It is actually what is being tested for. In the experiment, the scientist seeks to understand the effect of salts on melting point of ice. He selects the different salts which can cause a ice to melt (independent variables) then he sets up to find out the effect of the salt on the ice.

He cannot control how much ice will melt. The properties of the salts would determine the extent and rate of the dissolution of the ice pack. This is the dependent variable which relies on the nature of the salt.

Answer:

Explanation:

in this case female parent XX is hetrozygous for round nose. when a cross between round nose father XY and hetrozygous round nose mother takes place and suddenly a chromosomal nondisjuction occurs, the chromosomes carrying genes for pointed tip nose come togather in a gamete and a gamete (egg) with XX chromosomes is appeared having 24 chromosomes instead of 23. when this gamete fertilizes with a sperm having normal 23 chromosomes and only carry Y chromosomes, a pointed nose klienfelter syndrome case will appear.

Sholpan [36]

The entire process of manufacturing energy is known as oxidative phosphorylation, which takes place in the mitochondria, where ATP synthase enzyme is situated in the inner mitochondrial membrane and the F1-component protrudes into the mitochondrial matrix.  

In the process, ADP combines with a phosphate to produce ATP. The energy liberated due to the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP is utilized to do cellular function, generally by coupling the exergonic reaction of the hydrolysis of ATP with the endergonic reactions.  

The synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi is an endergonic reaction with positive delta G.
