Answer:
(1) Nitrite poisoning
(2) Its cause is elevated levels of nitrite in the pond or culture system water.
Hypothesis is a proposed explanation which is made on the basis of given experimental data taken as starting point for further investigation. All hypothesis test are conducted in a same manner fiollowing the four main steps:
1. State the hypothesis
2. Formulate an analysis plan
3. Analyzing the data obtained
4. Final step is to analyze the results
There are three types of variables taken in an experiment:
1. Independent variable: light, temperature, humidity
2. Dependent Variable: these depends upon the other variable. changes in the independent variable may cause the dependent variable to change, for example, growth of plant is a dependent variable which depends upon the amount of light(independent variable), the plant receives
3. Controlled Variable: these variable can be controlled and prevented from being change like ty[pe of plant, type of soil
Answer:

Explanation:
We are asked to find the energy given mass, specific heat, and change in temperature. Therefore, we must use this formula;

The mass is 15 grams and the specific heat is 0.129 J/(g×°C). Let's calculate the change in temperature.
- ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature
- ΔT= 85 °C- 22°C = 63°C
Now we know all the values:

Substitue the values into the formula.

Multiply the first numbers together. The grams will cancel.

Multiply again, this time the degrees Celsius cancels.

<u>121.905 Joules</u> are required.
