Independent Variable: Photosynthesis
Dependent Variable: Starch
Starch is a product of photosynthesis. Without photosynthesis, starch cannot form. Therefore starch is dependent on photosynthesis.
5:
Independent Variable: Temperature
Dependent Variable: Animal Metabolism
Animal metabolism will only be affected if the temperature of the room changes. Therefore animal metabolism is dependent on temperature.
9:
Independent Variable: Rainfall
Dependent Variable: Thickness of growth rings
The thickness of the tree's growth rings are determined by the amount of rainfall. Therefore the thickness of growth rings are dependent on rainfall.
If the Earth were a disk with its surface perpendicular to the rays of sunlight, each point on it would receive the same amount of radiation. <span> However, the Earth is a sphere and aside from the part closest to the sun, where the rays of sunlight are perpendicular to the ground, its surface tilts with respect to the incoming rays of energy with the regions furthest away. Hope this answers the question.</span>
