A scientist grows tomatoes in greenhouses that differ only in the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. He determines the weight

of tomatoes produced by plants in each greenhouse, and compares them to each other and to tomatoes grown in air with a natural, unaltered amount of carbon dioxide. Is this a controlled experiment? Why or why not?

Answer:

This is an controlled experiment because he is only changing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. Since he is only changing one variable at a time and comparing it to a natural, unaltered tomatoe area, his experiment is controlled.

Explanation:

The definition of a controlled experiment is a test where the person conducting the test only changes one variable at a time in order to isolate the results. An experiment where all subjects involved in the experiment are treated exactly the same except for one deviation is an example of a control experiment.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Yes, this is a controlled experiment. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The scientist grows tomatoes inside the greenhouse with altered amount of carbon dioxide. So he is changing an important factor required for the healthy growth of plant and increased growth of fruits. So this is a controlled experiment.

But the size of tomatoes depends not only on one factor i.e. Carbon dioxide, but also depends on the other factors like sunlight, amount of water, temperature and the saturation of the photosynthesizing capacity of that particular plant.

Describe the characteristics of the phospholipid bilayer that permit small hydrophobic lipid molecules to pass directly across t
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Explanation:

The phospholipid bilayer forms the outermost layer of cells called the plasma membrane of the cell.

The phospholipids are arranged in the bilayer with the globular head composed of glycerol and the phosphate on the outer side (hydrophilic) and the hydrophobic carbon chain in the inner side.

The hydrophobic molecule present in the layer provides a characteristic feature to the membrane that is known as selective permeability. The selective permeability allows the non-polar or uncharged molecule to pass through the membrane and not the large polar molecules.

This is because the non-polar molecules can interact with the hydrophobic portion (tails) which could allow the molecules to pass through the membrane but the polar molecules are repelled by the hydrophobic protein so require special channels.

sammy [17]
I think the deficiency of dedicated respiratory and circulatory systems in Planarians does not cause a problem because none of their cells are far removed from the gastrovascular cavity or from the external environment. Planarians are free-living flatworms and form the class Turbellarians in the Phylum Platyhelminthes. Flatworms have three tissue layers, that is the ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

the approach has been described below

Explanation:

I will have to use motivation as a way of enhancing change in the life of Sally. From this question, she seems to be a lonely lady, with low self-esteem and no physical activity. The first thing I would do is to help to get her out of monotony by motivating her.

Once motivated, I would help plan her diet and add combinations of physical activities. These activities may include walking and running. With time an expert would take over her physical training.

She has to make time for other activities such as yoga or community work. The purpose for this is so she can meet and connect with other people, this would give her a sense of belonging. And would help boost her self image.

In conclusion, Sally needs a combination of physical and emotional therapy in order to change her lifestyle.

Does carbon dioxide enter a plant when the guard cells swell or when they shrink?
ElenaW [278]

Answer: When cells swell up

Explanation: Plants need carbon dioxide and <u>stomata allow the plant to take in carbon dioxide to perform photosynthesis</u>. The "lips" are actually individual cells (called guard cells) <u>that can swell up to open the stomata</u> or deflate to close them off.

How are Earth’s organisms and crust interdependent?
sattari [20]
The Lithosphere contains all of the cold, hard, solid rock of the planet's crust, the hot semi-solid rock below the crust, the hot liquid rock near the center of the planet, and the solid iron core. The biosphere is the sphere that contains all of the Earth's living organisms. The organisms and crust interact through events between spheres, such as natural events like floods, shifts in the Earth's crust. Some event as such could create soil erosion resulting in decreased vegetation and increase death of organisms. <span>
