Answer:
- Dependent variable: number of cells that are in one of the phases of mitosis
Explanation:
In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that is not changed by the other variables that are being measured during the experiment (in this case, the independent variable is represented by the distances from the root cap). On the other hand, the dependent variable is the variable that is being measured/tested during the experimental procedure and, therefore, is 'dependent' on the independent variable. In consequence, in an experiment, the dependent variable is expected to change as a result of the manipulation of the independent variable.
<span> </span><span>Bean roots will have no nodules if there are no compatible Rhizobium bacteria in the soil. The nodule is a symbiotic relationship between the plant and the bacteria. Nitrogen fixing root nodules are pinkish in color. Green root nodules indicate actively reproducing bacteria that are not fixing nitrogen. The number of nodules depends on the amount of innoculant (Rhizobium) available in the soil. Look at the photos and make an estimate like x nodules per y linear inches of root. Hope this helps.
The edible part of the radish root functions as a food storage organ. The string parts of the radish root function as normal roots absorbing water and dissolved nutrients. Bean roots have no modifications for food storage. Radish roots don't have nodules. The radish root is a "tap root". The bean root is a "fiberous root"
Beans don't grown faster than radishes because of the root nodules. Bean seeds are large. Radish seeds are small. The energy stored in the bean cotyledons helps the seedling get a fast start. The radish gets a slower start from less stored energy.</span>
