Alysha wants to test the effect of different materials on the melting rate of ice. She finds the initial mass of four pieces of

ice. She then covers three pieces with either tinfoil, plastic wrap, or paper. The fourth piece is left uncovered.
After 30 minutes, Alysha calculates the final mass of each piece of ice to determine which melted the fastest.
What are the independent and dependent variables in Alysha's experiment?

a) The dependent variable is the type of cover material, and the independent variable is the mass of the ice.
b) The dependent variable is the mass of the ice, and the independent variable is the time the ice takes to melt.
c) The dependent variable is the mass of the ice, and the independent variable is the type of cover material.
d)
The dependent variable is the time the ice takes to melt, and the independent variable is the type of cover material.

Answer:

In the experiment conducted by Alisha to test the effect of different materials on the melting rate of ice, the dependent variable is the mass of the ice, and the independent variable is the type of cover material.

Explanation:

During an investigation or experiment, the dependent variable is the one whose changes will be studied, while the independent variable is able to influence the changes of the dependent variable.

In the case where it is wanted to <u>measure how different cover materials affect the rate of ice melting</u>, the dependent variable is the mass of ice and the independent variable is the coverage material, capable of affecting the time it takes for the ice to melt.

Find the unit rate with the second given unit in the denominator.
Kobotan [32]
First, the unit is words per minute, not the other way round because you're interested in how fast people can type, not how much time passes for every number of words they write or read (that would be minutes per word)

now, we know they do 4200 in 60 minutes. 

we need to divide 4200 by 60- first,\frac{4200}{60} = \frac{420}{6} = \frac{21}{3} =70

so the answer is, 70 words per minute

I think you made a typo in your answer and you meant 4600 instead of 4200 - then the answer is <span>C. 76 2/3 word/min</span>

In humans, hemophilia is caused by an X-linked recessive gene. A woman who is a nonbleeder - that is, she does not display the b
wariber [46]

Answer:

one normal girl

One normal boy

One carrier girl

One colour blind boy

Explanation:

Haemophilia is a sex linked feature as it is transmitted with the chromosomes determining sex.

In humans,the male has XY and the female has XX.the Y chromosome is usually genetically empty.so as mall received his Y chromosomes from his father,he cannot inherit his father's sex linked traits .but women can as they receive and X chromosomes from their fathers.so a cross between a carrier woman Cc and a normal man C result in;

XX--CC

XX--Cc

XY--C

XY--c
