You perform an experiment on two plants of the same species to find out what soil affects their growth the most. Both plants are

set outside in direct sunlight for 2 hours per day, and both receive 8 ounces of tap water each day in the morning. Plant A has regular dirt from your yard as its soil; Plant B has Miracle Grow Nutrient-enriched soil. You measure both plants each day at 8 AM with a ruler to determine how much they’ve grown.
Determine the control and independent and dependent factors of your experiment.

Answer:

Independent Variable - Soil, Dependent Variable - Height, Control Variable - Sun and Water

Explanation:

First we should define what the variables in the experiment are.

Independent variable is the aspect of the experiment that has a different value for each subject in order to find out how it affects the dependent variables.

Dependent variable is the variable that is kept under observation and recorded by the experimenters in order to track the changes and define its relationship with the other variables/parameters.

Control variable is the variable that is kept constant intentionally by the experimenters to be able to define the relationship between the other variables more clearly and easily.

In the example given in the question, there are one of each variable mentioned above which are, according to the definitions;

  • Independent Variable - The Soil
  • Dependent Variable - The Height Of The Plant
  • Control Variable - The Amount of Water and Sun Exposure

I hope this answer helps.

Rank the sequence of events at the NMJ that initiate an action potential in the muscle fiber, from first to last.
wlad13 [49]

The correct order is:

- Action potential arrives at the axon terminal.

- Calcium ions enter the axon terminal.

- Synaptic vesicles fuse to membrane of axon terminal.

- Acetylcholine is released into the synaptic cleft.

- Acetylcholine binds to its receptors on the junctional folds.

- Junctional folds become depolarized.

- Action potential is initiated on the sarcolemma.

Action potential travels through the membrane of the presynaptic cell causing the channels permeable to calcium ions to open. Ca2+ flow through the presynaptic membrane and increase the Ca concentration in the cell which will activate proteins attached to vesicles that contain a neurotransmitter (e.g. acetylcholine). Vesicles fuse with the membrane of the presynaptic cell, thereby release their contents into the synaptic cleft-space between the membranes of the pre- and postsynaptic cells. Neurotransmitter binds to its receptors on the postsynaptic membrane and its binding causes depolarization of the target cell (muscle cell).

andrey2020 [161]
The answer is Pharyngeal Phase and Esophageal Phase stages of swallowing. In the pharyngeal phase, the bolus of food is pushed against the epiglottis, which closes the respiratory tract. The upper oesophageal sphincter relaxes and the bolus moves into the esophagus. In the oesophageal phase, the oesophageal sphincter closes when the bolus moves down and peristalsis action takes over to move the food down the oesophagus.
