Answers:
(a) The explanatory variable is the change in the temperature
.
The response variable is the coral survivance.
(b) The explanatory variable is quantitative.
The response variable is categorical.
Explanation:
A quantitative variable is those that can take a range of values. In this case, the temperature may vary across a range of values associated with the survival of coral reefs.
A categorical (also known as qualitative) variable is characterized to present finite states. In this case, the coral reefs can survive or not depending on their responses to changes in the temperature.
If it is not an isotope then it has around 21 neutrons
Pressure has no effect on the solubility of KNO3 in water. This is because it is solid in liquid type of solution. In solid in liquid type of solution, solid is solute (minor component), liquid is solvent (major component). For solid in liquid type of solutions, solubility is independent of pressure.
On other hand, pressure has a pronounced effect on the solubility of gas in liquid type solutions. In such system, gas is solute (minor component) and liquid is solvent (major component). Example of such solution is aerated water. Herein, CO2 is dissolved in water. In such gas in liquid type of solutions, solubility increases with increasing pressure.
