<span>The variables in this study would be the folic acid used (the independent variable) and the DNA formed through the implementation (the dependent variable). By changing the amount of folic acid used in the experiment, the DNA will possibly be changed in the microbes.</span>

The correct answer is option (C) The amount of folic acid is the independent variable, and the DNA synthesized is the dependent variable.

DNA or the deoxyribonucleic acid is made up of the nitrogenous bases called the purines and pyrimidines. Folic acid or the vitamin B9 is essential for the synthesis of these nitrogen bases of the DNA. A scientific experiment conducted always has two parameters, a dependent and a independent variable. A dependent variable in an experiment is a variable which is being tested and measured. In the experiment Jon is conducting, the amount of DNA becomes an dependent variable which is being tested and measured in presence of folic acid.  An independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is changed or controlled in the scientific experiment to test the effects on the dependent variable. Here, folic acid becomes an independent variable as the amount of it is varied and tested to check the formation on DNA in bacteria.  Thus, an independent variable always changes to check its effect on the dependent variable.

A mutation causes a tomato plant to have much fewer, smaller leaves. Plants use their leaves to make food. Which best describes
deff fn [24]

Answer:

  • <u> It is harmful because it obviously affects the plant’s ability to survive</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Mutations are alterations in the genetic code that may occur due to environmental or chemical mutagens. Mutagens, are substances or agents that induce changes in the genetic code.

Photosynthesis is a complex biochemical process; plants convert solar energy into chemical energy as sugars like the polysaccharide glucose. They also use inorganic carbon from CO_{2 along with H_{2}O.

Plants photosynthesize in their leaves- these organs contain tissues for  CO_{2 intake, along with the chloroplasts and mitochondria, the sites of photosynthesis and respiration. If the number of leaves are reduced, this reduces the amount of tissue capable of carrying out this essential process, limiting the plant's chance for meeting its energetic needs, and thus survival.
