Charles Darwin observed an orchid flower with very long, thin tubes that prevent many species from feeding on flower nectar and

pollinating the flower. He offered a prediction that some species of pollinator would eventually be found that can feed and pollinate through the small tube. You decide to test Charles Darwin's proposal by placing nets over some orchids that allow small pollinators to enter, but prevent the large sphinx moth from entering. You then compare the number of seeds produced byplants with and without the nets. The seed production is
A. a dependent variable.
B. a standardized variable.
C. a hypothesis.
D. an independent variable.
E. a theory.

Answer:

A. a dependent variable.

Explanation:

A scientific experiment contains three types of variables (factor or condition) in experiments: the dependent, independent and controlled variables.

The independent variable is the variables which can be changed or altered naturally or artificially like the sunlight, temperature whereas a dependent variable is a variable which depends on the independent variable and is the studied parameter of the experiment.

In the given question, since the production and the number of the seeds is influenced by the pollinator, therefore, a number of seeds will be considered the dependent variable.

Thus, Option-A is the correct answer.

What is the role of photosynthesis in the cycling of matter and low of energy within a cell ?
Radda [10]

\huge{\purple{\bigstar{\pink{\text{ANswER}}}}}

  • The process of photosynthesisconverts light energy into stored chemical energy by converting carbon dioxide plus water into sugars plus released oxygen.Cellular respiration releases the energy needed to maintain body temperature despite ongoing energy transfer to the surrounding environment.

The CRISPR system
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is b. recognizes foreign DNA sequences that have previously entered the cell and directs the Cas proteins to destroy them.

Explanation:

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPER) is the sequences of DNA found in the genome of prokaryotes and archaea. These sequences are added at a crisper locus in DNA by bacteria through capturing bacteriophage DNA during infection.

Then this sequence is used to detect a similar sequence of bacteriophage during subsequent infection and destroy them by Cas9 enzyme. Cas 9 enzyme uses a crisper sequence as a template to destroy similar phage DNA.  

So the CRISPER Cas system provides an adaptive defense mechanism to bacteria against foreign DNA coming from bacteriophage. Therefore the correct answer is b.

microorganisms play key roles in the cycling of important nutrients in plant nutrition, particularly those of microorganisms pla
Licemer1 [7]

Microorganisms play key roles in the cycling of important nutrients in plant nutrition, particularly those of microorganisms play key roles in the cycling of important nutrients in plant nutrition, particularly those of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur.

<h3>What is Microorganisms?</h3>

Microorganisms, often known as microbes, are minute organisms that can be single cells or colonies of cells.

Ancient texts like the Jain scriptures from India's sixth century BC raised the specter of the potential existence of invisible microscopic life. In the 1670s, Anton van Leeuwenhoek used a microscope to observe microorganisms, which marked the beginning of the scientific study of microbes. Louis Pasteur disproved the hypothesis of spontaneous generation in the 1850s by discovering that bacteria were to blame for food degradation. Robert Koch determined in the 1880s that bacteria were to blame for tuberculosis, cholera, diphtheria, and anthrax.
