Hello!
An initial observation is the first thing a scientist notices about a topic before conducting the experiment. We can see that it is the first thing in the paragraph in this case, that dandelions grow as unwanted weeds in many lawns.
The hypothesis is the guess about the result of an experiment made before the experiment is conducted. In this case, it is that a weed killer (Killimal) would kill all the dandelions while leaving the grass healthy. This is not specifically a guess made by the scientist, but more like a prediction he wanted to verify.
An independent variable is the variable being changed in the experiment by the scientist. Here, it is whether Killimal was sprayed or not.
The dependent variable is the variable being measured, and the one being affected by the independent variable. His observation would be whether the grass and dandelions would be killed. This is because the weed killer would be directly affecting whether or not these would be killed.
The control variables are ones which are kept the same in the experiment as to not interfere with the final results. In this case, it would be the density of dandelions, the amount of sunlight, and the amount the plants were watered. These were kept exactly the same, as they could've affected the dependent variable if changed.
The control group was the one that is not impacted by the independent variable. The control group makes sure that it actually is the independent variable affecting the dependent, and it isn't some outside unknown variable. This would be the plot without the Killimal.
The experimental group is the one being experimented on from the independent variable. This would be the plot with the Killimal.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
QUALITATIVE INTERVIEWING IS MOST USEFUL FOR:
* Evaluating programs that are aimed at individualized outcomes
* Capturing and describing program processes
* Exploring individual differences between participants' experiences and outcomes
* Evaluating programs that are seen as dynamic or evolving
* Understanding the meaning of a program to its participants
* Documenting variations in program implementation at different sites
QUALITATIVE INTERVIEWING IS NOT AS USEFUL FOR:
* Evaluating programs that emphasize common outcomes for all participants
* Measuring specific, predetermined effects of a program on participants
* In impact evaluations, deciding whether your intervention caused changes or effects in participants (since determining causality requires more controlled conditions)
Explanation:
An interview in qualitative research is a conversation where questions are asked to elicit information. The interviewer is usually a professional or paid researcher, sometimes trained, who poses questions to the interviewee, in an alternating series of usually brief questions and answers.

Explanation:
Not only is the biota important, but the abiotic factors in the ocean are also important because both groups work together. The abiotic factors in the ocean help the ocean to 'work'. For example, phytoplankton (autotrophs) need light, nutrients, CO2 (dissolved gases) to photosynthesize.
