Options for the question have not been given. They are as follows:
type of soil
type of plants
exposure to sunlight
method for measuring the growth
Answer:
exposure to sunlight
Explanation:
A scientific experiment has an experimental group and a control group. Control group is included to omit any error in results due to the factors other than the variable factor. Experimental group is the one exposed to different levels of the variable factor.
Here, Carlo wants to determine the the effect of day length on plants' growth. The test variable here is thus the duration of sunlight. In experimental group, this duration will be changed to determine its effect. In control group it will be kept constant so that results from other factors can be excluded from the observed experimental result.
Calcite is the most common rock
The decomposers are of two kinds, aerobic decomposers and anaerobic decomposers. The aerobic decomposers need the oxygen from the air to break down the dead and decaying matter into simple salts, sugars and hydrocarbon gases. The anaerobic decomposers do not require oxygen for the break down of dead and decaying matter. They break down the matter into various forms of hydrocarbons, sulphides and nitrogenous compounds.
When a dead and decaying matter gets buried deep within the Earth where there is an absence of the decomposers, it takes the form of crude oil, coal, peat, asphalt, and natural gas. The matter gets compressed by the weight of the rocks above and changes its form.
