As a rule of thumb, in order to improve the reliability and accuracy of an experiment, it is best if the experiment is repeated several times. The increased number of trials ensures that the readings observed have minimal random error.

2. A symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which one species benefits and no effect is apparent to the other species – Commensalism.
3. A cell that has a membrane-bound nucleus and/or organelles as its major characteristic -Eukaryote.
4. The study of organisms that are too small to be seen with the naked eye - Microbiology.

An autotroph is an organism that produces its own food from simple substances available in its environment. Autotrophs usually use inorganic chemical reactions or light energy in producing their food and are usually the producers in a food chain. Examples of autotrophs are plants and algae.
Commensalism is a type of relationship between organisms of two species where one organism benefits from the relationship and the other organism is not affected by it (neither benefits nor harmed).
Refined carbohydrates tend to be much in lower in
fiber and vitamins than whole grains. These are complex carbs that have had fiber removed from them
leaving reproduce simple carbohydrates. These are rapidly absorbed causing a
blood sugar increase, which is followed by some crash. During the milling
process, the germ and bran is peeled and the grain's endosperm is crushed. The
final product becomes easier to gnaw and digest. The main reason manufacturers
process the grain is to lengthen shell life.
