For a science class project, Sandy wants to test the effect of rap music on pea plant growth. She plays loud rap music 24 hours

a day to a series of pea plants grown under light and watered daily. At the end of her experiment, she concludes that rap is conducive to plant growth. Sandy receives a low grade on this experiment from her teacher.
Why did Sandy’s teacher give a low grade for this experiment? What was the key problem with it? How could Sandy change her experiment to fix the problem? Rewrite the experiment so it will receive a better grade.

Sandy should've gave rap music to only one pea plant not all. The key problem was that all were being tested and one at least should not have been tested. She could change her experiment my only giving 1 planet rap music.

Answer:

Sandy's teacher give her a low grade because it was not an experiment.

The key problem was that Sandy did not had a control group.

The new experiment will have two groups (control and experimental). Each group will have the same amount of pea plants, and the pea plants will be watered with the same amount of water at the same time daily. Also, pea plants will receive the same amount of light. The only thing that will change between groups will be rap music. In the control group, there will no music played while loud rap music will be played 24 hrs a day in the experimental group. At the end of the experiment, all pea plants will be measured, and the measures will be compared between both groups.

Explanation:

Experimental investigations are performed to evaluate the effect of a specific variable. In order to measure this effect, you have to control other variables. In the experimental design, you need to have more than one group, but at least two (control and an experimental). The control group is the group from which you will compare, so it will not be exposed to the independent variable. The experimental group is the one that has to be exposed to the independent variable.

In this case, the independent variable is rap music, and the dependent variable is the amount of growth.

One of the traits that we looked at in class was a widow's peak (has peak is dominant, no peak is recessive). For each individua
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Explanation: 1) Individual who is bald but neither parents has a widow's peak: As having a peak is dominant and the individual is bald with parents that doesn't have the trait, the genotype is recessive, in the case ww;

2) Individual has a widow's peak: The individual's genotype can be WW, homozygous for the trait or Ww, heterozygous for the trait, depending on the genotype of the parents;

3) Individual can't roll their tongue: Being able to roll the tongue is a dominant characteristics, so if the individual can't roll their tongue means the genotype is recessive. But, there is little evidence that this trait is dominant or inheritable;

4) Individual has a widow's peak  but their mother does not: In this case, the genotype of the individual is heterozygous (Ww), because the mother is recessive (ww) and the offspring has the trait, so the father must have had it;

5) If an individual does not have a widow's peak (ww), which genotype would be impossible? If this individual crosses over with another individual with the same trait, their children will be all recessive for widow's peak (ww), so there is no possibility of an offspring with the trait;

If the initial individual crosses over with an individual with widow's peak, two possiblities can occur:

  • If the crossover is with an individual homozygous for the trait (WW): all their children will have widow's peak with genotype Ww. So, the possibility of not having the peak is 0;
  • If the crossover is with an individual heterozygous for the trait (Ww), there will be a probability of 25% for the children to have genotype WW, a probability of 50% for the offspring to be heterozygous (Ww) and has the trait and probability of 25% to be recessive (ww) and therefore doesn't have the trait;
