Answer: a. the amount of water

Independent variable can be defined as a variable which can be changed or manipulated in an experimental set up to record and observe it's effect on the dependent variable. A dependent variable is a variable which is dependent on the independent variable. The outcome of the dependent variable is the result of the experiment. A controlled variable is a variable which does not change in a reaction, and kept as a constant.

1. Here, in the given situation, the amount of water is an independent variable, as it can be manipulated or change in an experiment and it's impact on the growth of plant, which is a dependent variable needs to be observed.

2.Here, in the given, situation, the type of plant is a constant or control variable, as it is irrespective of the changes that occur in the dependent variable with respect to the independent variable.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The first thing to look at would be type of symmetry the organism exhibits. If it is asymmetrical then it would be a sponge and the discovery could stop right there. If not, other characteristics need to be investigated.

Knowing the type of body cavity this organism has would be helpful.

It would also be beneficial to know what type of skeleton (endo or exo) this organism has and what its appendages look like.

Finally, the type of digestive tract and the presence or absence of a head would help to determine what this creature is.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

1. gravel of the sand: a part is dissolved and the remainder is grouped at the bottom of the beaker.

2. drop of sunflower oil: It is not absorbed and heaps on the surface of the water contained in the beaker.

Explanation:

Gravel of the sand is a polar substance. This means that this substance has the ability to dissolve and mix with water in a system in which both were placed together, such as a beaker, for example. However, the beaker limits the amount of water, which limits its ability to dissolve polar substances. Therefore, depending on the quantity, the gravel of the sand, when placed in a beaker with water, will dissolve, in parts, what is not dissolved will accumulate in the bottom of the beacker, because the gravel of the sand is denser than the water.

With the drop of sunflower oil the exact opposite happens. This is because drops of oil are nonpolar substances, which means that they do not have the ability to be dissolved in water. This means that when dropped into the beaker with water, the drop of sunflower oil will not dissolve, but will pile up on the water surface, because it is less dense than water.
