Answer:
Independent variable: Glass of milk
Dependent variable: Time of sleep
Control variable: same type of milk
Explanation:
Independent variable in an experiment refers to the variable that the experimenter manipulates or changes in order to get a response in another variable (dependent). In this case, the independent variable is the GLASS OF MILK taken before bed.
Dependent variable is that variable that is measured in an experiment. It is the variable that responds to the changes made to the independent variable. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the TIME OF SLEEP of the students.
A control variable or constant is the variable that is kept unchanged throughout the course of the experiment in order not to alter the outcome of the experiment. In this experiment, a control variable can be the SAME TYPE OF MILK taken by each student.
Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation is powered by the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain, a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.
These electrons come originally from glucose and are shuttled to the electron transport chain when they gain electrons.
As electrons move down the chain, energy is released and used to pump protons out of the matrix, forming a gradient. Protons flow back into the matrix through an enzyme called ATP synthase, making ATP. At the end of the electron transport chain, oxygen accepts electrons and takes up protons to form water. Glycolysis can take place without oxygen in a process called fermentation. The other three stages of cellular respiration—pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation—require oxygen in order to occur. Only oxidative phosphorylation uses oxygen directly, but the other two stages can't run without oxidative phosphorylation.).

Thrifty metabolism
Thrifty metabolism is the genetic
tendency toward efficient use of energy that results in below-average energy
requirements and increased storage of calories as fat. Thrifty metabolism
contributes to less weight lost when an obese person reduce the amount of his
calorie intake even though there is changes in metabolism.
Hello Littlefoot2645. I do believe the answer would be that of the process of "mutation," thus it occurs by human interference, specifically, although, initially, naturally-speaking, only occurring by natural selection in onslaught of period time frames.
