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.

Compare the properties of the parent and daughter cells in mitosis and meiosis and explain the reason for any differences.
MariettaO [177]

1. Mitosis takes place within somatic cells (cells that make up the body). Meiosis takes place within gamete cells (sex cells). 


2. One single division of the mother cell results in two daughter cells. Two divisions of the mother cell result in four meiotic products or haploid gametes. 


3. A mitotic mother cell can either be haploid or diploid. A meiotic mother cell is always diploid. 


4. The number of chromosomes per nucleus remains the same after division. The meiotic products contain a haploid (n) number of chromosomes in contrast to the (2nd) number of chromosomes in the mother cell. 


5. It is preceded by an S-phase in which the amount of DNA is duplicated. In meiosis, only meiosis I is preceded by an S-phase. 


6. In mitosis, there is no pairing of homologous chromosomes. During prophase I, complete pairing of all homologous chromosomes takes place. 


7. There is no exchange of DNA (crossing-over) between chromosomes. There is at least one crossing-over or DNA exchange per homologous pair of chromosomes. 


8. The centromeres split during anaphase. The centromeres do separate during anaphase II, but not during anaphase I. 


9. The genotype of the daughter cells is identical to that of the mother cells. Meiotic products differ in their genotype from the mother cell. 


10. After mitosis, each daughter cell has exactly same DNA strands. After meiosis, each daughter cell has only half of the DNA strands
