Answer: High calories diet

Explanation:

Independent variable can be defined as the factors which the experimenter can control and the the dependent variable depends on the independent variable.

Here, the experiment is to test the effect of high calorie diet on the animal's weight.

The experiment is to test whether the animals gain weight if supplied with high calorie diet.

So, the independent variable in the experiment is high calorie diet and dependent variable is weight of animal.

Why would a diverse community be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer and explanation;

-A diverse community would be more resistant to disease, predation, and invasion because it would be a bigger diversity of genes, which means that the chance of disease would be more likely to spread in a different area than in a diverse population.

-Diversity is expected to increase the resilience of ecosystems. A diverse community would be more resistant to disease because of simple biology. The more sources for possible resistance the better the heterogeneous pool will be at resisting disease.

-High diversity strengthens a community and prevents invasion of the introduced predator. After a gradual loss of native species, the introduced predator can escape control and the system collapses into a contrasting, invaded, low-diversity state.
