What was John’s hypothesis in the experiment? The hypothesis should make a prediction of the outcome of your experiment and shou

ld include an explanation of why you expect that outcome. This can be simplified into an if, then, because statement... IF (the independent variable does this), then (the dependent variable will do this), because (I learned this in the lesson)

The hypothesis is a claim that correlates the dependent and independent variables to predict results. Hypothesis: <em>If the organic fertilizer is added to the substrate, then plants will grow taller.</em>

<h3>What is a hypothesis?</h3>

A hypothesis is a scientific conjecture, not verified, that requires corroboration. It is a possibility, but not a fact.

The researcher hypothesizes in order to predict what is going on or what is expected to occur. The hypothesis must express what is expected to occur in a perfectly comprehensive manner.

The hypothesis is a claim of how it works a relationship between two or more variables. The exposed relationship must be logical and clear.

The hypothesis must be objective. There are different kinds of hypotheses: descriptive, correlative, differentiative, or causative.  

To get to formulate a hypothesis, first we need to identify all the involved variables in the experiment. In the exposed example,

Goal: test the effects that organic and chemical fertilizers had on plant growth.

Independent variable: Type of fertilizer (organic and chemical).

Depedent variable: plant growth.

Controlled variables: type of seed, soil, water

Prediction: the organic fertilizer would make the plants grow taller.

Hypothesis: Here I propose three ways to write the same hypothesis.

  • If organic fertilizer is added to the substrate, then plants will grow taller.
  • Using organic fertilizer will make plants grow taller.
  • In comparison to chemical fertilizer, an organic fertilizer will make plants grow taller.

In this way, you can establish a direct relationship between the independent variable and the dependent one.

Complete question:

John had a science fair project that he needed to do. He wanted to test the effects that organic and chemical fertilizers had on plant growth. John predicted that the organic fertilizer would make the plants grow taller. He used three pots, three of the same type of seed, soil, organic fertilizer, chemical fertilizer, water, and a ruler. John put soil in the pots. He added chemical fertilizer to the first pot, organic fertilizer in the second pot, and no fertilizer in the third pot. He then planted one seed in each pot. John had to water the pots daily. He also checked for growth and took measurements for a period of 10 days. He measured the height of the plants.

<u>Days    No Fertilizer (cm)   Chemical Fertilizer (cm)   Organic Fertilizer (cm)</u>

10                 0.2                              5.2                                  3.8

John made a data table to record his measurements.

After the 10th day, John observed that the plant with the chemical fertilizer grew the most.

irina [24]

The three correct answers are;

B. forming waxy leaf coverings

D. storing energy in fat cells

E. forming cell membranes

Lipids are a large group of biological molecules that include phospholipids, fats, oils, waxes and some steroids. Almost all lipids are hydrophobic (i.e. insoluble in water). Lipids play many important different functions in a cell. Lipids are vital component of all cellular membranes. They store energy in the form of fats in the body. Waxy coverings on some leaves are composed of lipids. Lipids are also essential for heat insulation, cellular communication and protection.

We consume significant amounts of what vitamin in an inactive form?
Art [367]
Vitamin A; it is a soluble vitamin in fatty bodies, which can not be released in the urine as other vitamins normally do, it is said that we consume large quantities in an inactive form since this is necessary for many human body processes such as vision, formation and maintenance of skin cells, the immune system, growth and even lactation and embryonic development, therefore it is not necessary to be active to consume large amounts of this vitamin.

______ is the process by which nerve cells are coated with far cells that enhances the speed and efficiency of the information t
givi [52]

Answer:

Myelination

Explanation:

The covering of myelin around the axons is called the myelin sheath. This myelin sheath helps in transfer of information faster and also in complex  processes of the brain. The process of myelination begins in the PNS (peripheral nervous system).

The myelinated section are seperated from each other with a gap called nodes of ranvier. Glial cells (oligodendrocytes) forms the myelin sheath in the central nervous system and schwann cells (glial cells) forms the myelin sheath in peripheral nervous system. The propagation of electrical impulse in the myelinated fibers is by saltatory conduction that is from one node to another.
