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.

Answer:

Stem cells have the ability to divide <u>through mitosis</u> and produce unspecified cells. Stem cells can be developed into a required tissue because of their ability of <u>differentiation</u>.

Explanation:

A stem cell is a cell that is in an undifferentiated state. This means that it has not specialized in a specific type that carries out a specific function of that tissue, which does not imply that stem cells do not have their own function. The concept of stem cell is due to the ability to originate specialized cells from one or more tissues, depending on the degree of potency or plasticity it has. They are found in all multicellular living organisms. Their main characteristic is that by reproducing through the process of mitosis (they divide into two cells) they can form more stem cells or differentiate, that is, they become specialized cells, in such a way that they are essential for the renewal of cells in different tissues. and to repair them.
