A group of scientists are studying the effects of different fertilizers on the growth of pea plants. They began their study with

10 pea plants. They gave each plant a different type of fertilizer and tracked their growth over a period of 2 months. the result of this experiment weren't considered valid by other scientists because there was no control group. which of the following represents an appropriate control group for this experiment?

A control group of the experiment is the one in which no treatment or intervention is given. So, in your case, the pea plants in which was not subjected any of the fertilizers, will serve as a control group. This is a negative control. A positive control group is the one in which an established treatment is given, which definitely leads to the production of the desired character. So, in your case, a very good well-known fertilizer which has a positive control on the growth of the pea plant, would serve as a positive control.

In addition to mutations, genetic variation can also arise during the formation of gametes during meiosis. During meiosis I, hom

Answer:

Crossing over ensures that organisms of the same parents have differences in genetic content making them unique in one way or the other.

Explanation:

This question is describing the process of crossing over, which occurs only during prophase I of meiosis. During the process of crossing over, alleles of a gene are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes (mother and father chromosomes).

Hence, a unique GAMETE that has been genetically recombined will be formed. When these gametes are fertilized (egg) or fertilizes (sperm), organisms that are genetically different from their parents are produced. This ensures genetic variation, which is a difference in the genetic content of organisms.

DaniilM [7]

It makes sense that cell membranes are made of phospholipids because water cant mix in with lipids, so the phospholipids will be able to effectively block out any unwanted water or chemicals suspended in water outside of the cell.
