In the above experiment, which variable is the responding (dependent) variable?

1 answer:

7 0

Independent variables cause an effect on the dependent variables. In the exposed example, the dependent variable is the loss of soil (g), which is affected or influenced by the other variables. Option 3.

<h3>What are de dependent and independent variables?</h3>

Independent variables are those modified or changed by the researcher to study how this change affects another variable and hence the results.

This variable is not affected by any other one but influences or causes a reaction in other variables.

The dependent variable is the one influenced by the independent variable, and is affected by any change on this last one.

Its response might be either directly proportional or inversely proportional to the change in the independent variable.

Now let us answer the question.

In the exposed example, there are four possible variables.

soil type
degree of slope
loss of soil (g)
air temperature

The only one that can be affected by the other variables is the loss of soil.

The degree of soil loss can be affected by the type of soil, the degree of slope, and environmental temperature.

The correct option is 3. Loss of soil (g)

Why is it important to study the theory of plate tectonics and continental drift?

Dvinal [7]

It is practical knowledge in the sense that we know why some parts of the world are inherently risky to live in. Even though volcanic eruptionis, earthquakes and tsunamis are difficult to predict, it makes sense to have building codes and emergency plans that take this into account.

It is science’s response to the beliefs that natural catastrophes (volcanism, earthquakes and tsunamis) are divine punishments for the evil ways of some individuals.

Even if you will never use or apply this knowledge, knowing about the theory of plate tectonics gives you a current scientific perspective on what we know about the natural world.

It is a good example of how scientific theories proceed by trying to fit several observations into a coherent explanation.

Learning about the observations that needed to be made and explained for the theory to win over scientists helps caution you against people who adopt belief systems without questioning the myths told to them, or those who try to profit from ignorance of how nature actually works.

When it is well taught, it should convince you that, like any scientific theory, plate tectonics is a “work in progress”. New discoveries continue to be made, and it takes creative and logical thinking, debate and a quest for more observations in order to determine which ones prove or challenge the current theory and which ones may lead to its refinement.
