Ans.

In some organisms, such as crocodiles, lizards, and turtles, gender determination is affected by temperature. In turtles, the eggs become female  when the temperature is higher, while eggs become male when temperature is less than that of required by female development.

Thus, to hypothesizes that the gender determination in turtles is affected by temperature, 'the scientist should expose different groups of turtles to different sets of temperatures in a laboratory.'

Scientific thinking: how can scientists assess the health risks of trans fats
Klio2033 [76]
Scientists can access the risks of trans fats by conducting an appropriate experiment which will show the effects of the fats on the human system.
This can be done by feeding known quantity of trans fats to rats over a specific period of time. During the period, the change in the rat weights will be measured on the daily basis and every other changes that is noted in the rats will be noted down. A control group of rats will be included in the experiment; these rats will be given normal rat feeds and not trans fats.
 When the period of feeding is completed, the rats will be killed, all the organs in the rats such as liver, blood, brains, kidney, etc will be harvested and these organs will then be biochemically analysed in order to compare the changes in them with that of a normal rats.
Rats are usually used in biochemical research because their systems and that of human is comparable. Any negative effect of trans fats that is noted in the rats will also hold true for human beings.

What might happen if the gametes of a species had
mario62 [17]

Answer:

<em>The chromosome number will not be constant and the person would die.</em>

Explanation:

During gamete formation, half of the chromosomes arise from one parent and the other half from the other parent. This is possible due to the process of meiosis.

If during gamete formation, the number of chromosome does not get reduced, then after fertilization the gamete will have double the number of chromosomes as compared to the parents. Hence, the chromosome number of the person will not remain constant and he/she would die.
