Answer:

The correct answer is option D) "The addition of different substances affects the freezing point of water".

Explanation:

A hypothesis is defined as a supposition based on evidence that could be confirmed or rejected according to experimental results. In this case, Susie has performed an experiment that involves freezing 3 beakers and recording the temperature and time of freezing. The first beaker contains water, the second water and salt, and the third water and sugar. Since Susie is experimenting with salt and sugar using a water only beaker as control, the most appropriate hypothesis for her experiment is that the addition of different substances affects the freezing point of water. There is no additional information that could make Susie hypothesize how salt and sugar affects the freezing point of water, but the results of her experiment will let her gather the information she needs.

Answer:

D) The addition of different substances affects the freezing point of water.

Explanation:

The best answer would be letter D.

The short explanation would be, the other choices only involves the addition of 1 substance (salt or sugar).

The long explanation:

Susie is testing two types of solution: <u>sugar + water</u> and <u>salt + water.  </u>This means that she is testing the effect of both. An experiment is done to test certain variables and an addition of a variable that is not being tested is not advisable. But since she intentionally used both solutions, then it is reason enough to assume that she is testing both substances (sugar and salt) so the hypothesis should include both as well.

<span>A sustainable system refers to producing less or probably non-existent debris that are caused by the production of a particular material (i.e. produce, energy). This is a sustainable form of production of coupling algae growth and fish farming because you no longer need the supply of fish feed from other sources that are made artificially but rather, you are using the available algae growth that you are culturing. Farm fishing alone is non-renewable because this produces much waste that can directly harm the environment.<span>

Sea anemones can reproduce sexually or asexually. What would be the most likely advantage a sea anemone would have to reproduce
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Re-producing sexually will allow the sea anemones to give their offspring a more diverse gene pool and can mitigate the risks of a genetic disorder being spread to the offspring because the bad gene has a higher chance become recessive if the gene of the anemone it mates with is more dominant (meaning it wouldn't allow the "bad" gene to show in the offspring) whereas otherwise, the offspring would have the same issues the mother did (assuming it had a bad gene to begin with).

<h2>The correct answer is: Mutualism.</h2>

Explanation:

  • Mutualism can be defined as a type of symbiotic relationship.
  • Symbiosis can be defined as the type of ecological interplay in between two species localized in the same habitat in which at least one of the species gets benefited in the form of food, shelter or protection due to the interaction.
  • Mutualism is a type of positive symbiosis in which both the species involved in the ecological interplay benefits due to the interaction in between them.
  • In the given question, some micro-organisms survive in the digestive tract of the cattle.
  • These micro-organisms produce the enzyme, cellulase, which helps in digesting cellulose present in the food consumed by the cattle.
  • The cattle is incapable of producing this cellulase enzyme by itself and is dependent on the micro-organisms for its synthesis.
  • Hence, the the micro-organisms help the cattle in obtaining nutrition and energy by the digestion of cellulose.
  • On the other hand, the micro-organisms get shelter, nutrition and protection in the gut of the cattle.
