A medicine to remove the redness in eyes was tested in a group of 100 students. Each student took either the medicine or a place

bo in both eyes. The participants were given some free time after receiving their drops. The researcher did not keep track of what they did in that free time. It turns out that many of the people receiving the medicine spent their time outside and many of the people receiving the placebo spent their time inside. The results may now be biased because the variable location (inside vs. outside) is now a/an ____ variable.

Answer:

Independent variable

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, an independent variable is that variable which the experimenter changes or manipulates in order to effect an outcome. Only one independent variable should be tested at a time in a good experiment, all other variables should be kept constant. The initial independent variable in this experiment is TYPE OF SUBSTANCE put in the students' eyes.

However, according to the question, the researcher did not keep track of what they did in that free time. Hence, many of the people receiving the medicine spent their time outside and many of the people receiving the placebo spent their time inside. The location of every student should be a CONSTANT VARIABLE i.e. same for all students but now it has become an INDEPENDENT VARIABLE because it has been changed.

One form of chromatin modification is acetylation, which is known to occur on positively charged histone tail amino acids, thus
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

A. The tails do not interact with the DNA

Explanation:

The acetylation refers to the transfer of the acetyl group from Acetyl-CoA to the N-terminal of the histone protein.

Lysine residues (positively charged amino acid) are present at the end of the N-terminal of the histone protein which is neutralized by the acetyl group.

This loses the compaction between the positively charged histone and the negatively charged DNA and the DNA becomes more relaxed. This relaxed state allows the transcription factors to easily bind the DNA and therefore the DNA becomes transcriptionally active.

Thus, Option-A is correct

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

 Proteoglycans are a major component of compact connective tissues but are relatively unimportant in watery tissues such as the jellylike substance in the interior of the eye.

Explanation:

these are protein that is divided into two classes which are  called large ans small Proteoglycans.

The large proteoglycans has a large number of highly sulfated glycosaminoglycan side-chains that tends to hold water and whereby making the tendon to resist compression while the  small proteoglycans are known to have a relationship with collagen fibrils which are known to regulate collagen fibril diameters. they help in signal regulation  usually  from the angle of intracellular compartments. the are known great for their large diversity especially in terms of different cores and different numbers of GAGs with different lengths and composition.

Which of the following statements about the products of glycolysis is TRUE?
lana66690 [7]
<span>You are likely talking about aerobic respiration rather then just glycolysis based on the options: The third option seems best, pyruvate is heavily oxidized during the Kreb's cycle and removed as CO2.
 
Wrong options
Option1- FADH2 is also another highly energetic molecule produced during

Option2- oxidation of pyruvate is a highly directional process and can be considered irreversible in the cell

Option4- Aerobic respiration RELEASES energy from pyruvate and the into NADH/FADH which is then captured by the electron transport chain. An exergonic rxn would take in energy and would not happen spontaneously


This can be looked from different perspectives, but let me know if my answer made sense. </span>
