You are given this hypothesis: “if beans are grown in soil with compost, then they will grow at the same rate as beans grown in

soil without compost because compost has no effect on the growth rate of beans.” You have access to these supplies and equipment: fifty bean seeds, fifty small pots, potting soil, compost, and grow lights. Write a brief scientific design to test this hypothesis. Include the aspects of good scientific design described in this lesson.Enter your scientific design in the space below.

You put 1 bean seed in each small pot, fill 25 of the pots with only potting soil, and the remainder with 1/2 potting soil and 1/2 compost. Then you put all of them under an equal amount of grow lights. Put them under at the same time, and take notes every day to see if they grow at the same rate or not. If they do, then it proves this hypothesis is correct. If they don't then the hypothesis is wrong

hope this helps

Divide plants into two groups of twenty-five. Plant twenty-five seeds in pots with potting soil without compost; this is the control group. Plant the other twenty-five in pots with potting soil and a specific amount of compost added; this is the experimental group. Place the pots under grow lights. After germination, measure the height of the plants at set intervals (e.g., every two days) for a set amount of time (e.g., two weeks). The IV is the presence or absence of compost. The DV is the height of plants. Twenty-five plants per group is a good sample size; all obvious variables are controlled. The experiment is simple and specifically described, so it can be replicated. The seeds were assigned randomly; there is no obvious bias in the experiment.

Which refers to swelling as a result of inflammation?
Bad White [126]

Answer: Edema

Explanation:

The swelling that is caused as the result of inflammation is known as Edema. Just after an injury takes place the traumatized area becomes red, painful and warm. It also starts to swell.

This swelled area is also known as Edema which is caused due to acute response of acute inflammation.

This response is trigerred by the injured tissues. When the body starts healing then, change in blood flow takes place and swelling is also cured.

But sometimes it is so acute that it restricts the normal blood flow and movement of the affected area.

write an essay about the best meal you’ve ever eaten using all five senses (smell, taste, hearing, touch, sight)
san4es73 [151]

I was sitting in my room, my eyes glued to the flashing screen, the palm of my hands slick with sweat as I struggled to hold onto the controller, the smooth surface slipping every second or so. I could barely hear anything, but the blaring of the sound effects that blasted through my room, shutting out any sound, including the knock on my door from my mother. I started, dropping the controller, my eyes wide. I snapped "What!" at my mother, her face contorting into pinched irritation. "Dinner is ready." She said, turning away to head back down the stairs. My eyes shifted to the open doorway, the nostrils of my nose flaring as I took in the scent of food. I could smell spices, and the humid stench of steam. My stomach growled and I quickly shot up from the floor and thundered down the stairs, leaping into the kitchen to find the source of the heavenly smells that wafted in my direction. I spotted turkey, garnished with lemon and green herbs, and sitting beside it, a large bowl of something off-white. It looked like mashed potatoes. I hastily took a seat and set my elbows upon the wooden surface of the table, my mother scolding me over her shoulder as she divided place settings. "Elbows off, please." She piped, pulling out her own chair with an ear splintering squeal that grated my nerves, causing my teeth to grind together. My mother passed a plate of green beans towards me, and I quickly scooped them onto my own plate, then going for the turkey, the mashed potatoes added last. With no time for prayer, I dug in, the tinges of my fork scraping against the plates clay surface as I scooped a fork full of beans up, and shoved it into my mouth. It tasted bland, with the barest hint of salt. I swallowed, cringing as it went down and took a bite of the mashed potatoes. Of course it was delicious. They were light, buttered perfectly. I gave a small sound of appreciation and went for the turkey last. I stabbed a piece of meat and popped it into my mouth, the texture odd. Hard to describe really. It was tough, but also soft enough to bite into, and with lemon added into it, it was tangy, making my mouth salivate. My mom smiled at the expression my face, nearly laughing. I made a face at her and swallowed, going in for another bite.
