Answer: b. the height of the plant.

In an experimental set up an independent variable is the one which can be manipulated or change to observe the effects of such changes or manipulation on dependent variable. For example, plant growth is a dependent variable because it is dependent on independent variables such as amount of sunlight available, amount of fertilizers and water provided.

In this experiment, it is to be determined that how the amount of water given to a plant affects its growth. Here, water is an independent variable which can be change in the experiment and the affect of change can be observed on plant growth which is a dependent variable. A height represents the growth of the plant therefore, height of the plant is the dependent variable.

I think the answer to this is the height of the plant. The amount of water is the independent variable and the amount of sunlight and soil arent included in this experiment.

Summarize how the founders effect and a bottleneck event would contribute to genetic drift
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
The founder effect and the bottleneck effect are cases in which a small population is formed from a larger population. These “sampled” populations often do not represent the genetic diversity of the original population, and their small size means they may experience strong drift for generations.

Explanation:

Bottlenecks and founder effects. Genetic drift can cause big losses of genetic variation for small populations. Population bottlenecks occur when a population's size is reduced for at least one generation. ... A founder effect occurs when a new colony is started by a few members of the original population.

You are riding in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Suppose you stand on a scale. The reading on the scale is __________.
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Option B, weight greater than your true weight

Explanation:

When a person stand on a scale in an elevator, his inertia tries to remain constant and stable. Thus when a lift starts moving upward it presses against  the feet of that person in order to lift him/her up. In doing so an apparent weight is applied on the person which do not change with speed and it is due to this weight that scale shows a higher reading when elevator moves up.

Hence, option B is correct.
