The correct answer is option a) Amount of Nitrogen.

The variables are the factors, which can be changed in an experiment. The variables can be of two types, dependent variable and independent variable.

The independent variables are those factors, which are independent of any changes. In this case, the amount of nitrogen Sarah administer is not dependent on any factor, so, it is an independent variable.

Whereas, the height of plant, nodules and root growth is dependent on the amount of nitrogen the plant get. SO, these are dependent variables.

The only independent variable in this experiment is the amount of nitrogen Sarah uses. All of the other variables are dependent on other factor and processes, but Sarah controls the amount of nitrogen that she uses for each plant.

What is a major difference between facilitated diffusion and active transport?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The correct answer is Active transport moves substances against the concentration gradient.

Explanation:

The principle difference between active transport and facilitated diffusion is that active transport helps in the movement of various substances in the uphill direction which means against the concentration gradient.

    In simple words active transport helps in the movement of substance from the region of low concentration to a region of high concentration.

On the other hand during facilitated diffusion substances move along their concentration gradient which means from the high concentration region to the region of low concentration until the concentration of both sides become same.

Why are AT pairs are easier to pull apart than GC pairs during the unwinding process
Mice21 [21]
Initiator proteins break hydrogen bonds separating short length of DNA, AT base pairs are held together by fewer hydrogen bonds than GC pair. Thus AT pairs are easier to pull apart, At rich regions are typically found in the replication origins. Replication origins are site at which DNA is first opened.
