Answer:

IV: Amount of water

DV: Height of the strawberry plant

CG: The fourth strawberry plant

Con: Type of strawberry plant, type of water given, type of soil used, amont of sunlight.

Explanation:

When you say independent variable this is the variable in a study that you change or manipulate. In this case, the amount of water is the one that is changing per plant. This is done to test whether this variable will have an effect on another.

The dependent variable is the variable that is not changed by the researcher or scientist. The changes in this variable is what you'd like to take note of. The changes that the dependent variable "depends" on the indepedent variable. This means that the dependent variable is the one affected. In this case, it would be the height.

Control Group is the group that you are not going to test with the Independent variable. We do this to determine or rule out any other intervening variables that may cause a change. If the result of the study would be that there is not difference between the other group and the control group, then that would mean that the independent variable may not have had any effect on the dependent variable. Another purpose to a control group is to provide also a baseline to track changes.

Controlled variables are variables that are kept constant. This is also to eliminate or prevent other variables from interfering with the results. It ensures that only the independent variable is what is causing the change. If there were no controls to this particular experiment, you will not be able to properly conclude that it is indeed the amount of water that is causing the change.

In leghorn chickens colored feathers are produced by a dominant allele,

Gnesinka [82]

Basically the male will have CC, the hen will have cc, and neither of them will have I. The key thing is that _all_ the chicks are coloured.

The male must have at least 1 C to be coloured, and cannot possess the dominant I. The hen has cc and/or an I to not be coloured.

That one chick is coloured would tell you little - only that the hen couldn't have 2 inhibitor alleles because otherwise the chick would have to have one and it doesn't.

However, for all of many chicks to be coloured, that means that the hen can't have any inhibitor alleles (otherwise around 50% would be white for that reason alone).

So to be colourless, the hen must be cc. However, if the male had only 1 colour allele (ie it was Cc) that would still mean that 50% of the chicks would be Cc (daddy's 'c' and one of mummy's 'c's).

Hope this helps please award brainly :)

Give ONE suggestion for how humans can lessen their impact on Earth.

lora16 [44]

Answer:

Humans must decrease the harmful impact they have on earth or else the human population could go extinct forever. One way to do this is to inform the people on climate change and its effects. Recycling, using metal straws, carpooling, cleaning up beaches, pulling unncessary plugs in your house to reduce electricity usage, and doing so much more can help reduce the risk of climate change and help the world become a much healthier and stable place for humans, plants, animals, and the environment.
