Answer:
- Dependent variable: number of cells that are in one of the phases of mitosis
Explanation:
In an experiment, the independent variable is the variable that is not changed by the other variables that are being measured during the experiment (in this case, the independent variable is represented by the distances from the root cap). On the other hand, the dependent variable is the variable that is being measured/tested during the experimental procedure and, therefore, is 'dependent' on the independent variable. In consequence, in an experiment, the dependent variable is expected to change as a result of the manipulation of the independent variable.
Answer:
They would be smaller than their normal size.
Explanation:
The G2 phase of a cell's cycle is where the cell starts preparing itself for the mitosis by producing proteins and growing in size. If the G2 phase of the parent cell is shortened, then the cell is not able to grow as much as it needs but this does not affect the mitosis process, the daughter cells would be much smaller due to the parent cell's size.
I hope this answer helps.
The correct answer is: the wail of a loud car alarm.
Sensory adaptation is a term that refers to the changes that stimuli can trigger on the sensory receptors. The process involves changes in the receptors' sensitivity and it is believed that all of the senses exhibit this adaptation. In particular, the sense of touch can quickly adapt to hot and cold stimulation, but not when the stimulus is extremely intense (such as too hot or too cold). Also, our olfactory sense presents the characteristic of odour fatigue. A prolonged exposure to a specific smell leads to a temporary inability to sense this smell and this is a type of sensory adaptation. Finally,
our hearing undergoes a sensory adaptation as well, but not when it comes to sudden, unexpected and instantaneous loud noises. That is why the wail of a loud car alarm will be the least likely to cause sensory adaptation.
A sex-linked trait is a trait that is carried by the X chromosomes in females but it is not expressed(the phenotype). Females are only carriers because they have two copies of the X chromosome [one of them carries the trait and the other does not]. Males who inherit one copy of the X chromosome often get the trait (because the trait is in either one copy or the other of the X chromosome) and express it while their Y chromosome would became recessive. Thus, only males express sex-linked traits such as hemophilia or color blindness
Canada, one of the wealthiest countries in the world, is also one of the most water-rich. The province of Ontario shares the Great Lakes—which contain 18 percent of the world’s fresh surface water—with the United States. Access to sufficient, affordable, and safe drinking water and adequate sanitation is easy for most Canadians. But this is not true for many First Nations indigenous persons. In stark contrast, the water supplied to many First Nations communities on lands known as reserves is contaminated, hard to access, or at risk due to faulty treatment systems. The government regulates water quality for off-reserve communities, but has no binding regulations for water on First Nations reserves.
