Answer: Fertilizer

Explanation:

Independent variable can be defined as the factor which can be controlled by the person performing the experiment.

The experimenter can control whether he will put fertilizer in soil or not. The growth of tulips will depend on the fertilizer as it is a source of nutrient to the plant.

here, the hypothesis will be either accepted or rejected based on the result of experiment.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Measure only daytime.

Explanation:

It is useless to measure the oxygen production every hour for 24 hours because oxygen is produced during day time due to the presence of photosynthesis process. Oxygen is produced in large amount during photosynthesis, some oxygen is used in respiration while the remaining diffuse out from plant body through stomata. After vanishing sunlight, the photosynthesis process stop and no production of oxygen occur. So only measure oxygen production at daytime as compared to every hour for 24 hours.

How do mirnas function in controlling gene expression? view available hint(s) how do mirnas function in controlling gene express
kirill115 [55]
I believe the miRNAs control gene expression by binding to mRNAs and degrading them or blocking their translation. The microRNAs are short non coding RNAs which function to regulate the process of gene expression. They bind to the 3-UTR of the target mRNAs and repress the production of protein by destabilizing the mRNA and translational silencing.
