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.

Answer: d) lightheadedness or unconscious episodes.

Explanation:

There are several ways the body responds to stress but one method used by psychologists to measure this response is Hans Selye's general adaptation syndrome. This occurs in 3 stages:

1. The alarm reaction. This occurs when the stressor is first presented resulting in the RELEASE OF HORMONES from the adrenal gland into the blood stream. The hormone in turn cause sympathetic nervous system activation and increase energy levels, INCREASE RESPIRATION, increase muscle tension, reduce sensitivity to pain, slow down the digestive system, and cause a RISE IN BLOOD PRESSURE.

2. The stage of resistance- this occurs till the stress is removed.

3. The stage of exhaustion
