Answer:
<em>The correct option is B) number of patients with brain tumors</em>
Explanation:
In a scientific experiment, an independent variable is a variable which is being changed by the scientist or changes naturally. The effect of the independent variable is studied on another variable which is termed as the dependent variable. Hence, the dependent variable can be described as the variable which is under study in a scientific experiment.
In the following scenario, as the effect of prolonged cell phones is being tested on causing brain tumors hence, the number of patients with brain tumors will be the dependent variable.
Answer:
Parathyroid hormone increases the level of calcium while calcitonin hormone decreases the level of calcium in the blood.
Explanation:
Parathyroid hormone is a type of harmone which is responsible for balancing calcium in our body. When the calcium level lowers in our body, parathyroid hormone is secreted and calcium is absorbed from the bones and fullfilled the requirement of the body. If the tumor secreted calcitonin hormone instead of parathyroid hormone, the calcium level in the blood is lowered because it acts to the opposite of parathyroid hormone.
Humans are warm blooded and can't be cold blooded because of the environment we live in. We can't sit still during the winter and soak up warmth from the sun.
During the day, plants carry out photosynthesis releasing carbon dioxide. During the night, there isn't any sunlight so the plants carry out cellular respiration releasing oxygen.
