Answer:
The acid-base reaction produces glycine reduction, and hence the increase of glycine pH.
Explanation:
The glycine is an amino acid with the following chemical formula:
NH₂CH₂COOH
The COOH functional group is what gives the acid properties in the molecule.
Hence, when NaOH is added to glycine an acid-base reaction takes place in which COOH reacts with the NaOH added:
NH₂CH₂COOH + OH⁻ ⇄ NH₂CH₂COO⁻ + H₂O
The glycine concentration starts to shift to its ion form (NH₂CH₂COO⁻) because of the reaction with NaOH, that is why the pH glycine increases when NaOH is added.
Therefore, the acid-base reaction produces glycine reduction, and hence the increase of glycine pH.

B. Heat is a form of energy so boiling it would increase energy. (I guess)
The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
One tank of goldfish is feed the normal amount which is once a day, a second tank is fed twice a day, and a third tank is fed four times a day during a 6 week study. The fishes' body fat is recorded daily.
Independent Variable-
Dependent Variable-
Constants
Control Group-
Answer:
A) The amount of food the gold fish receives
B) Body fat of the gold fish
C) -Type of fish used in the study (gold fish)
Time period within which the fishes were fed (Six week period)
Shape and size of tank
D) group of gold fish fed the normal amount
Explanation:
The purpose of the study is to determined the impact of amount of feed on the body fat of gold fish. Hence, the amount of feed is the independent variable while the body fat of the feed is the dependent variable.
The control group receives the normal amount of feed (once a day). The fishes are all gold fish, fed within a six week period. All the tanks were of the same shape and size. These are the constants in the study.
