The correct answer is A. Amount of sleep

Explanation:

In research, there are two main types of variables the dependent and the independent variable. The dependent variable refers to the factor or situation that is being studied by the research and therefore cannot be controlled by it. On the other hand, an independent variable is a variable the researcher modifies or controls in order to understand or study the dependent variable. This means while the dependent variable is the one that cannot be controlled and whose results answer the question of the research the independent variable is the factor control by the research and that varies according to the groups the researcher is studying.

Considering this, if the researcher wants to know the effects of sleep on memory and for doing this it gives two different groups of subjects the same lists to memorize, but different time to sleep the dependent variable is the memory and the list as it is the same for all the subjects and the independent variable, in this case, is the amount of sleep as this is the factor controlled by the researcher.

How did conservatism affect the nationalist movements in Europe?
Stells [14]

Hi there!

Conservatism affected the nationalist movements in Europe by delaying or extending nationalist struggles.

The belief that people belong to a group with a history, language and customs similar to theirs, is called a nation, and that the totality of a person's loyalty and sense of value must come from the nation.

Nationalism was an important movement in the nineteenth century that shaped the beliefs of many people in Europe, who tended to demonstrate the superiority of their nation over other nations. This type of thinking lead to conflicts between some European nations.

Which sentence best shows a compare/contrast organization of ideas? A) The number of video games that Arnold owns is staggering
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The correct option is letter B) While Rebecca wants to go swimming every day, Arnold only wants to stay home and play video games.

Explanation:

A sentence that compares two elements focuses on those elements' similarities. A sentence that contrasts two elements focuses on their differences. Among the options given, letter B is the only one that presents a compare/contrast organization of ideas. As a matter of fact, it is contrasting Rebecca's and Arnold's preferences. The conjunction "while" helps convey the idea of contrast by stating that, while one element wants one thing, the other element wants something else. While Rebecca would rather go swimming, Arnold prefers to stay home. The difference between their preferences are made clear by the sentence's organization.
