If you are driving down the road, how do you know that the car is moving (think about your reference point)?

If your car is changing speed by accelerating or decelerating, or changing directions by turning or hitting a bump, your body can sense these accelerations. You might be pressed against the back of your seat while speeding up or against the car door as you turn for example. If you are cruising at a constant speed, with no changes in speed or direction, you wouldn't be able to feel it. You would need to use your other senses. You could see the scenery going by through the windows, with closer objects moving by more quickly than objects in the distance. You could also hear sounds like the wind rushing by and the hum of the tires rolling on the highway.

Answer:

A possible hypothesis would be:

IF a yeast cell is supplied with maltose sugar, THEN it would yield the greatest amount of energy when metabolized by bacteria

Explanation:

The hypothesis is a testable explanation aimed at providing a theoretical explanation to a question. The hypothesis is a predictive statement about the possible solution, which can be tested. A hypothesis must be testable via experimentation. It often has an IF, THEN format.

Hence, in the case experiment where a student wanted to know which sugar (maltose, glucose or sucrose) would yield the greatest amount of energy for the cell when metabolized by mitochondria. A possible hypothesis of this experiment will be that: IF a yeast cell is supplied with maltose sugar, THEN it would yield the greatest amount of energy when metabolized by bacteria

Note that, this hypothesis must be testable by conducting an experiment and it doesn't have to be true. It can be disproved or proved by the outcome of the experiment. In this case, the hypothesis is giving an educated guess that maltose is the sugar that will yield the greatest amount of energy for yeast cells

Cancer is the result of unchecked cell division caused by a breakdown of the mechanisms that regulate the cell cycle. The loss of control begins with a change in the DNA sequence of a gene that codes for one of the regulatory molecules. Faulty instructions lead to a protein that does not function as it should
